Hi, im new here.
I've got a s-off HTC Desire with the awesome LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.3-Port-R5 ROM installed, But for some reason I still have the static O2 splash screen when I turn my phone on.
Im not a total noob, i cant for the life of me work why its still there or how I can remove the damn thing.
Any help would be great.
Grab the android flasher somewhere on the forum and then find an image to replace it using the flasher

I gave the flasher a go, i flashed a black version of the defult HTC splash. But the O2 splash is still there. The O2 one comes on first followed by the now black one.
Does anybody now where the O2 splash is located? Then I can just delete it. The only thing located in the Root/Data/Local is the black HTC bootanimation.zip
It is called SPLASH, not BOOT ANIMATION. You have to replace the splash image.

okay, im confused.
I have a splash1.img but when Im in android flasher its asking me for a .bmp instead of a .img file.
I then made a 24bit 480x800 splash1.bmp, which it accepted and flashed but it didnt work. Im still getting the O2 splash.
Does anybody know where the splash file is located on the phone? So i can replace it manually?
heres a screenshot

Hmm. Strange. Do you have S-OFF? Maybe that's the cause, because the file is on internal NAND hidden somewhere.
The process is simple BTW, it needs a 480x*800 image (BMP, not other) you select Splash and flash it via the tool. It worked for me (I'm S-OFF).
Edit: Changing Splash does require your phone with S-OFF. (stated in other threads).
Is your phone pvt 4. I have the exact same problem but with default white HTC. I'm s-offed and alpharev has never changed my boot image. I've also tried Android flasher. It says its worked but it doesn't. I'm wondering if its stored some place different on pvt 4. Is their anyway to manually check??

I assume you mean the initial splash screen that pops up when you startup the phone. I did this on my G1, which was used on AT&T until I just got a Rogers Magic yesterday.
w00t.
Information can be found here: (Dream forum)

I've verified that it works, I now have a pretty bootsplash on my new Magic.

It should. Tough luck if you can't figure it out from there.
I've been struggling with this for a few days and may give up due to the risk involved.
Basically, it all depends on what version of the device you have.
1. You need to root your phone.
2. Check this website: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Sapphire_Hacking
It has detailed information on how to edit your boot screen.
Issues arise if you have a perfect SPL, like I do. (which is most likely what you bought) With a perfect SPL you will need to follow Ra's 30 - 40 steps to creating a Gold card (which might brick your phone and super complex) and then install an engineering SPL. After you've installed the busted SPL you can then use fastboot to push a new boot screen you've created using tools found is several other threads in this forum.
To do just about anything with the boot screen you'll need an extra non-scan disk SD card, RA's engineers SPL, the boot screen image converter created by JesusFreak (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467064) and some other stuff. I'd recommend doing some homework. MT3G is a super pain in the ass in comparison to the G1.
You might want to keep an eye on the thread I started yesterday... which is basically what you are asking... except I've done a lot of reading. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=568434)

Yeah, that wont work for his American MT3G.
it should do its only flashing the splash screen, not the android screen
"fastboot flash splash1 mysplash.xxx"
its very simple, u can change the bootsplash on the mt3g, but first you have to change the spl, the one that comes on it already ends in 0006, you have to change it to 2005 the same one from the g1, after that u can change it the same way with the g1 thru fastboot flashing....thats how i did mine and a few of my frineds mt3g...good luck

Can't you get into recovery at all? (Assuming you used unrevoked you should be able to).
Then I'd do a full wipe/reflash from there.

1) Please post in the correct section first [Q&A, not DEV]
2) There's a selection of pre-rooted stock roms available via SEARCH at the top
3) Flash via renaming to update.zip and sticking on the root of your SD card
3a) If fails, name it pb99img.zip and do it via voldown+power

hey i have got same problem help us..
ONLY USE THIS METHOD, IF YOU ARE HAPPY WITH WOLRD WIDE ENGLISH FROYO BEING INSTALLED
Could possibly be because your using the wrong RRU or something like that, I'm no expert and I'm not sure what your exact problem is, however I know I had that problem and this is how I fixed it.
1) Download this version of Froyo 2.2 (Latest Release From HTC)
2) Rename it to PB99IMG and place it on the Root of you SDCard on your phone.
3) Boot into HBoot by Holding Vol-Down while Powering On
4) HBoot should automatically find the PB99IMG file and start to update your phone, this will take around 30 seconds for HBoot to get ready, and find the file so be patient and don't touch anything.
Hope this helped that version of Froyo isn't rootable, so after installing search for the Desire Downgrade package on XDA for a Downgrade to Eclair which is Rootable.
*Make sure that the PB99IMG file is in .zip format, otherwise it won't work.
** The file you are downloading was made by HTC, but is hosted on a website called Shipped-Roms. They have a rubbish server (to the UK anyway) so you may experience slow downloads.
*** If you have any other problems, do not hesitate to ask me.
**** The black screen you experienced was an Error Recovery screen. Very rare, but happens in worse case scenario.
*****The thread you used to try and make your own fix, used a file designed for a different scenario. It was a wrong RRU.
******If you get an Incorrect CID Error whilst running the update you need a Goldcard, follow my easy tutorial here.

I take it you are all ignoring me? I took my time to write a detailed way on how to fix your problem however if you are not interested in trying it then how are you ever going to fix your device?
help me. i cant fix anyway.
Did you try what jaaystott said to try? Saying what you have tried will help big time otherwise were just taking wild stabs in the dark here. Be more specific other than "help, needs fixing now!!!!!!!!!".
Download this RUU, run it and read what it says. The RUU might go into recovery and fix your issue, it did for me when I had the wrong partition table. Using a Goldcard might help as well if you get the CID error.
how to using GoldCard?
Any links about it.
anyone help me?
i am waiting. anyone help me. Please
Have you tried what has been previously mentioned in this thread?

You could put your sdcard in it to create the goldcard.
If you manage to get one, you could use 'gold card helper' from the market.

I have been using the same splash screen and bootanimation combination for a while now. They work reall y well together and they are both very simple and minimal
Splash screen
Download from from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12401607&postcount=39 you will need to unzip the PG05IMG.zip to get splash.img.
Bootaniamtion can be found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12172944&postcount=636 its just the google logo with a black background with cogs turning underneath. I'm not sure if I can post a gif file on the xda app so hit the link to see the boot animation.

on G2/DZ you need engineering hboot to flash new splash. If you don't have, flashing makes nothing.

Wrong. I don't have the engineering hboot installed and I installed a custom splash screen (the HTC quietly rooted one from the previous page).
If you search their is a guide how to install it through terminal emulator, which I followed and it worked perfectly.
how do u change the splash image?!

I tried this method also, it haven't worked before I flashed eng hboot. But I think it must work, because both eng hboot and splash are flashed from terminal same way.
You're better off just flashing the engineering bootloader anyway. Fastboot becomes a last resort in the unlikely event recovery f***s up.
Anyway, here's mine.

my boot screen.
here is what i have for my tmo g2. stock cm7 boot animation.
Hi Wildfire S users,
Today I'm going to teach you how to create Splash screen or the image that comes
before bootanimation.
1. Download the tool in the attached and extract it using any zip manager
2. Download PG76IMG.zip as base file for creating splash flashable
3. Make an image or resize and crop any image, it should be 320 width, 480 height. Save it as 24bit BMP. I'm not sure JPG will work but I always choose BMP to be sure.
4. In the tool folder you just extracted open CreateG1Splash.exe then click open choose your edited image then click convert.
5. a file mysplash.rgb565 is created just rename it to splash1.nb0 then open my attached PG76IMG.zip with any zip manager like winrar,winzip or 7zip. then drag the splash1.nb0, thats it.
6. Now put the file in the root of your memory card then flash through Hboot. by fully turning off phone then holding volume down then power.
7. It will ask you to update just follow instructions after that reboot. You'll see your new splash.
Here is a sample:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Exactly what I was looking for, thanks very much.

A handy guide
It seems quite different on WFS compared to other Android phones. For example, on my DHD you convert your .bmp to .img and then flash via ADB as follows:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
fastboot reboot
You can also use Android Flasher if you don't feel comfortable using ADB.
I wonder if this will work with WFS?

Your input image shoud be 320 * 480 pixels!!!

Great tool. I've made a splash screen also.
I've the original rgb565 contained also so if it doesn't work, maybe another one can create a working zip.

Does this method work with HTC unlocked phones? I'm running CM7.2 by alquez and have CWM installed and rooted.
Edit: I don't think it works with HTC unlocked phoned. Damn, I was excited about it.
anyway to revert back to original splash screen and bootanimation
To get original splash screen, you could Google the image, and then create it using the instructions in the first post.
Also original animations could be sourced via search, however changing the splash screen does not affect the boot animation, but I'd advise that you back things up before deleting them in the future.
