[Q] Custom Boot screen wont work? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have tried to use Qteknology's splash inverted boot screen but for some reason it wont work. I've done every instructions from any thread that gives them, and I tried flashing it but nothing happens. My phone is rooted with the sprint lovers rom (i think)
Files are:
C:\androidsdk\platform-tools\adb
C:\androidsdk\platform-tools\bootanimation.zip
I tried pushing it to /data/local and the /system one, but I still have the default HTC boot screen. Any help?

Stuck on white boot screen

Been installing custom roms for a while now.
Whenever i try to install a new rom ( tried several ones, next sense, leedroid , defrost) i get stuck on the first white boot screen with the green htc screen.
Iv used full wipe, cache, wiped sd partition, formatted sd card, different sd card.
I can install an older version of next sense rom, but that is about all i can do.
im on bootloader v0.8, used the latest version of clockwork mod ( have tried with several versions) iv tried booting with the sd card out.
iv tried so many different times with different variations but none have been successful other than the nextsense v4.0 that i can boot to, or an nandroid back up of nextsense v4.0.
Any help?
I had the same this morning after fixing a recovery boot problem (re-pushing the reboot file to the system/bin/ directory on the device).
I resolved the hanging white screen problem by rebooting (via volume down + power button) into recovery with Clockwork Mod (v2.5.0.7 for Desire) and manually reflashed (N.B. without wipe!) the already installed ROM (I had upgraded to Nextsense 6.0 earlier that morning without difficulty, so reflashed that version).
Maybe this helps, but sounds like you may have already passed this station...
Good luck!
After that my Desire booted up normally.
Edit: Bootloader is v0.75
Can you get any response from running
#adb logcat
??
If it sits there saying "waiting for decice" for ages then yeah, something isn't right (possibly a bad flash of boot parition), but if you get anything, even a bootloop of sorts, the output may help narrow down whats going on!
I'm stuck here too. After I flash a custom ROM it just sits there after booting for the first time. I've tried so many ROMs, but I haven't even gotten to see a single one, yet!

[Q] Need Help - No Startup after installing ROM/No recovery

Hi everyone.
After rooting my phone, disabling S, instaling Clockwork etc etc. managed to install a ROM while in recovery mode (Clockwork).
Now, when I boot up, I can leave it to boot and it will go past the HTC splash, into the loadup screen for my ROM (Cyanogen), but the load animation just loops.....
If i try boot into recovery.....It vibrates maybe 5 times and the green light stays on at the top where message notification is. It does nothing.
Is there a way to re flash from the PC? My phone is stuck in recovery usb and USB charge if thats of any use.
Thanks.
Well, Ive done a bit of research.
Ive tried re installing various ROMs including origionals.
Managed to boot it into clockwork recovery mode, and instead of re installing the backup I had, I created a new one.
I then figured out how to mount the SD card to my pc and installed a few more ROMs, but those havent worked either.
Currently have this installed;

But it boots up witht he HTC logo, and then boots up with the quietly brilliant logo. Then it loops and plays the startup sound.
Im really Stuck please help.

And you have deleted the old one? And you didn't store a old backup on your PC?

[Q] Help needed.. black screen

Well i rooted my g2 today, and i was trying to add a new splash screen, i was using Splash-Screen-Creator-v0.02-Beta. I ran everything and after I restarted my phone it starts with a black screen with a multi colored bar ontop, then proceeds to go to the boot animation. I have tried factory formats, formating it in general and even reinstalling ROMs but still it is there, and i am not sure how to get rid of it.
With abd remove the splashscreen creator. Then flash your rom again.

were would i have to look to find it? because i never had to put in a specific location for the splash screen creator.
Ok well i am pretty stuck, i have no idea where to go. I have deleted anything that i found that i may have put in there but it is still there. any ideas on how to fix it?
Maybe you accidentally replaced the splash screen with a black picture with coloured bar?
You should maybe try flash a new splash screen, using a different method (maybe fastboot if you have eng hboot, or a PC10IMG)

Thanks, that worked, it was my way of making it a .img file that was messing it up. I just dl'd one and it worked fine. Dont know why i kept trying my own haha

Duplicate Samsung Epic 4g logo on boot after re-flash

Hey there. Something strange has been going on ever since I re-flashed my phone. When I flash the kernel/rom other than the stock one I get a duplicate Samsung logo when the phone boots. (phone displays Samsung logo, goes black for a second then displays again before boot) I've been flashing and reflashing ever since I got the phone and now I'm getting this. I can get into recovery and download mode just fine and other than that there don't seem to be any other problems. This is just weird. I'm wondering if there's a way to fix this. Also, I'm wondering how such a thing can happen in the first place. I've re-flashed twice now and the result is still the same.
[EDIT]
From what I understand, the boot screen file is located in param.lfs. I've read before that you can add a screen but how in the world would a re-flash cause a duplicate screen to appear? I had a failed kernal flash happen where i couldn't access the recovery and had to start over from scratch but that's happened before.
[UPDATE]
Just tried to mod the boot logo and found out it's requesting "gaudi_bootimage.jpg" twice. I have no idea what this means. Gonna go back in and re-flash the old one back in.

SCH-I515 Won't boot past splash animation

Working with a SCH-I515. When I got it, it would power on, get to the middle of the splash animation and then reboot. I used Odin and was able to flash successfully (also applied the proper PIT file to re-do the partitions) no change. I then reverted to Fastboot, and that went OK, too. Still, it doesn't make it past the splash animation. This all might seem somewhat vague, sorry for that. Software version info is ICS PRIMEKK15. Is there anything else that I can do?
