What you'll need:
CAB editor, such as OCP WinCE CAB Manager
Madkat's WM2k3 Boot Image Tool (attached)
Adobe Photoshop or other image editor
a compatible HTC device such as the Magician or Blue Angel
Summary:
Customized SplashX.nb files to be installed in \Windows directory of your device
Included:
Customizable Splash2.psd file for use with Adobe Photoshop
Steps:
1. Change the Splash2.psd file as necessary, then save a 24-bit BMP file called Splash2.bmp.
2. Use Madkat's Tool to convert the BMP file to an NB file.
3. Use the CAB editor to replace the Splash2.nb file with your version. WinCE CAB Manager may state an "Unspecified Error" when replacing the file. Instead, delete the original file, then drag the new NB file into the CAB file, hardcoding the \Windows folder as the install destination.
4. Save the CAB file and run it on your device!
Magician devices have only one splash screen, and it must be saved as Splash2.nb.
Blue Angel devices have two splash screens, Splash1.nb and Splash2.nb. Use the above steps to incorporate both splash screens as necessary.
Splash screens will be retained even after a hard reset, so use this after the Anansky's Big Storage hack, or if you just want to personalize your device, such as in the unfortunate event that it's lost or stolen - unless they know this trick, they won't be able to get rid of it!
Have fun!
Thanks mate works like a dream!!
Maybe it's just me, but I've read this post here and at Howardforums and I'm clearly missing something.
I've only ever used the nb_image_converter_859_418.exe to convert "any" bmp to the Splash2.NB file.
Then I drop that into my Windows Folder and use MDA3_bootimage_changer2.cab to apply the file. (Yes I'm using a Magician with this file!)
Soft reset and that's that. No need to do any cab file editing.
Cheers
Howard

Tried that way myself a while ago but for some reason it refused to work for me? (could of been the fact i used a file called XDA2_bootimage_changer.CAB)?? anyway now I can use self contained cabs so I make some splash's for my friends

it must be me, but what cab file are we using here ?

I wonder if anyone can put some help my way.....
I used the xda2 image changer before and I had custom images on my XDA2.
I use this and all I get is a black screen on startup. If I open the .nb file with the converter it shows as it should. (this same .nb works on my XDA2!)
I now have a plain black boot up screen!!
DOH!!!!
Any ideas......?
THanks
First i had the t-mobile splash... wich i didn't like.
Now, whatever bootsplash cab i make, or download here.. after running it, my bootscreen stays blank ( as in black ).
oh well... its an improvement over t-mobile pink
( or is it because i'm running an ancient rom : 1.01.00 WWE ?, only have the device for 3 days... will be upgrading this weekend tho )
Here are my 2 favourites Splashscreens.
The blue one ist for the silver Magician, the darker one is for the new O2 XDA mini (black edition).
Hi I've editted the o2 logo here's the jpg file
I tried to upload the psd so you can edit it but it doesn't work, to bad!

My way to splash changer.
Hi,
I thanks to BTT for Splash Changer how to. But it is troublesome to everytime run WinCE cab manager in order to put Splash2.nb to the .cab file.
I try to remove Splash2.nb from the .cab file (and renamed the .cab to splash_changer.cab). Afterthat, put the Splash2.nb manually to \windows on PPC. Voila....., no need to everytime run WinCE cab manager!!!!!
Process:
1. Edit .bmp file to your like (Must be 240x320 pixels, 24bit).
2. Use nb_image_converter_859_418 to convert .bmp file to .nb, and change the .nb file to Splash2.nb.
3. Put Splash2.nb file directly to your \windows on PPC. You can do activesync and explore it.
4. Put splash_changer.cab to \temp for you to easier found it.
5. Run file explorer on PPC, and tap on splash_changer.cab.
6. Done! You can check by soft reset the PPC.
Hope it is helpful!

Arto.

Hey all,
So that we don't all have to reinvent the wheel, is it possible where we could share OEM Package setup info to be used in the Faria ROM Kitchen. I know a number of your are adding your own packages, and this could save a lot of work for those of us just starting to look at customizing this tool. Use ftp://ftp.xda-developers.com/Uploads/WIZARD/ROMS/Faria WM6 ROM Kitchen.pdf to read up on how to create OEM packages and how they work.
What I'm thinking is that this thread could be a repository for packages (not for requests, but for packages people want to share). Bascially you would reply to this thread with what the package is for, and any special information and setup (or things people may want to look at and change), and then attach a zip file (or pointer to the package file) that people can then download and put into their devwiz folder. If its for a commercial (non-free) program, leave out the commercial program / dlls but just to have the other files setup and instructions on what to put into the folder could be very useful for people.
When you provide the packages, try to provide it with the original package.rgu and/or package.dsm filenames (not with the GUID that was generated for you). People will then be able to just run the buildos.exe and the GUID will get created for them without changing filenames. Then just edit the options.xml file to use the newly generated GUID.
so screenshot + cab + short info + status: freeware/shareware/etc. would be fine?

The only tricky thing here would be the guid for the files. I'm still new to this, so if someone has an idea how to handle that (maybe the person does the package.rgu and runs the program where it generates the guide, then unzips the files and modifies the guid to the new one in the right places).

The GUID is so simple, if you to use a package, just go to http://www.famkruithof.net/uuid/uuidgen . Then you just get a new GUID and paste it in all the different palces in the package, then you dont have to chnage file names then have them chnaged again by buildOS
I thik this is a good idea, would be good to share and also good for problem finding, cus i have one that i cant for the life of me get the today plugin to work how it is meant to!!!
GSFinder Package
[... This package has been updated and can now be found in post 23 of this thread ...]
This is a package for GSFinder. This is a freeware file manager (like TotalCommander).
To use this, unzip this to your OEM folder. You will then run buildos.exe and press the green arrow to have it process. After it completes exit buildos.exe then edit the options.xml file and change the GUID to match the one that was generated for the .dsm file in this folder.
MoDaCo NoData
[... This package has been updated and can now be found in post 23 of this thread ...]
This is a package for MoDaCo NoData. This is a freeware program that allows you to turn off and on what data sources will work on your device (so if you don't have a GPRS plan, you can turn off GPRS so your phone will not use it).
To use this, unzip this to your OEM folder. You will then run buildos.exe and press the green arrow to have it process. After it completes exit buildos.exe then edit the options.xml file and change the GUID to match the one that was generated for the .dsm file in this folder.
mUn Keyboard Skin
This is a package for the mUn keyboard skin. This is a freeware skin file to modify the look of the on screen keyboard to be like what is in the mUn aRTM WM6 rom.
To use this, unzip this to your OEM folder. You will then run buildos.exe and press the green arrow to have it process. After it completes exit buildos.exe then edit the options.xml file and change the GUID to match the one that was generated for the .dsm file in this folder.
NOTE: If you have other keyboard skin files in your OEM directory, you may get an error when you build this initially (or if more than one is selected). You can only have one of the keyboard skins selected.
XPlore Keyboard Skin
This is a package for the XPlore keyboard skin. This is a freeware skin file to modify the look of the on screen keyboard to be like what is provided for the XPlore 2.0 WM6 rom.
To use this, unzip this to your OEM folder. You will then run buildos.exe and press the green arrow to have it process. After it completes exit buildos.exe then edit the options.xml file and change the GUID to match the one that was generated for the .dsm file in this folder.
NOTE: If you have other keyboard skin files in your OEM directory, you may get an error when you build this initially (or if more than one is selected). You can only have one of the keyboard skins selected.

Thanks for putting this together!
I tried building via your instructions, but got an error (buildos.exe crashed). I deleted the options.xml file and then re-ran the build and it worked. Then copied back in an options.xml file and edited the GUID and it ran fine.
I'd noticed this when I was building another package. In my experience, I have to do a build without the options file, let the [GUID].dsm file get built, then create the options.xml file with the correct GUID in it and then rerun.

Yep I figured this out an hour ago. The options.xml should be renamed until the first run of builos.exe completes, then rename it back and change the guid inside the file.
I'll redo the packages tomorrow and update the instructions on them.

The initflashfiles.txt moves the files (doesn't just make duplicates). So you just have to put a line in for everyfile to "move" it to a different location. The next post will be for BatteryStatus and you can look at that one as thats what it does. All the graphic images are moved into a directory it creates.
Battery Status Package
[... This package has been updated and can now be found in post 23 of this thread ...]
Here is the package for Battery Status. I initially put this together but had some errors in how I did things. Thanks to ADB100 for cleaning it up! This is the same one he reposted for me in the Faria Rom Kitchen thread.
ALso going with Funman's point that its unlikely to hit a duplicate GUID, so I'm leaving the GUID alone. So just extract to the OEM directory and you are ready to go.
This package contains Battery Status 1.04.202 Beta 3 Build 0195 (latest version at the time of this posting).
Reposting with generic Registry Entries (removing ADB100's custom settings he mentions in his post below)
WM5torage Package
[... This package has been updated and can now be found in post 23 of this thread ...]
Package for WM5torage (version 1.73). Just unzip in your OEM folder.
Note, the package puts a shortcut in the \Windows\Start Menu\Accessories folder for WM5torage. Edit the initflashfiles.txt if you want the shortcut to be located someplace else.

Adobe Reader LE
[... This package has been updated and can now be found in post 23 of this thread ...]
Package for Adobe Reader LE. This is the "faria Adobe Reader" cab thats been posted, but then I've altered the .rgu to fix the registry entry for opening docs that have spaces in the name (Thanks ADB100 for pointing that fix out), and made a couple of fixes to the initflashfiles.txt (it had moves for files that didn't exist and I've added where it moves a shortcut into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories
Just unzip into your OEM directory.

I've reloaded the zip file in my post above for Battery Status and put the registry entries back to generic like a fresh install. If you want specific settings, then install BS, tweak it to your heart's content, then dump out the registry entries and replace them in the .rgu file.

Yes, there is a way to add the "Battery" string in front, but it requires you to edit a MUI file.
Let me explain:
When you install the distributed cab file it installs on your device various graphic files, plus 2 MUI files. These MUI files are for WWE devices. If your device is set to use other language as default (like mine which is set to work with Greek) then these two MUI files will be installed on your system, but they will be ignored, and the ENM will take it's strings from the original MUI that won't be overwritten by the installation.
There are two ways to get the "Battery" string showing.
The first way is to replace the original MUI files of NM with the new ones that the cab installs. This method arises another problem though: If you do so, the entire NM will be shown in WWE and NOT on your language. This means that you'll get the "Battery" string but all the other strings will be in English and not your language (e.g. Greek)
The second way is a little more tricky, but it has guaranteed results:
You just edit the original MUI file of your device to add the "Battery" string!
Since editing MUI files is tricky I'll post a quick guide on how to do it, but you may need to Google for it to get more details.
Everything will be done on your PC. You will need the following:
1. A MUI unsigner - Signer
2. A Resource Editor
3. The MUI file
I wish I had kept the links, but I only have the apps, so I can't tell you from where to get these apps. The MUI unsigner-signer I get it from these very forums (XDA). Use search to find it. For a resource editor I used XN Resource Editor
The MUI file you will get it from your device. Just browse your phone's Windows directory and copy NotificationManager.dll.XXXX.MUI file on your PC
The .XXXX.MUI part is actually the number of your language. For instance in my case I needed the NotificationManager.dll.0408.MUI which is the GREEK MUI file.
1.
Copy the MUI file on a short path on your PC, something like C:\Temp\MUI\
2.
Extract the MUI unSigner-Signer on the same path
3.
Run the MUI unsigner to unsign your MUI file
4.
Use the resource editor to edit the MUI file. Depending on the case you may need to add the string, or just edit it. We need to fill the string numbered 176.
If the string exists and it's empty just edit it to fill in the string of your desire. If it doesn't exists then create a new string and pay attention on the LANGUAGE selection upon the new string creation menu. It should be the same language as the rest strings on your file. Keep in mind that ALL resource editors will add 16 string in a row. That's normal, and it doesn't matter. Just use the create string command until you have a "176" value that you can edit. Once you edit the "176" String to say whatever you want it to say, save the file and exit Resource editor.
5.
Use MUI signer to sign your file
6.
Copy the modified MUI file somewhere on your device. Don't try to copy it directly on windows directory. The file is marked as "system" and windows won't let you overwrite it.
7.
Once you have copied the modified file on your device, use an application like Total Commander to do 2 tasks:
a. Backup the original file (by copying it somewhere) and
b. Replace the original file with the modified one.
8. Soft Reset your device and everything should be ok now!
PS:
By no way this is a complete guide on how to do it. It's just what I recall from the process I followed some time ago in order to do it myself.
Directions on how to use MUI unsigner-Signer you'll find on the thread that you'll get it.
PS2:
Be safe: KEEP A BACKUP OF YOUR ORIGINAL FILE FIRST!!!
PS3:
Have fun. If someone needs the Greek Translated MUI file PM me. I have also posted it on the ENM thread back at the time I created it...
EDIT: Here's the link of the Greek MUI file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4039484&postcount=125

Hi!
I want to edit a skin package for the program "Tengo Thumb" by myself.. I have a cab file with a skin inside it but when I open it with winrar the files don't have any file-endings.. I want to get to those pictures and change them to something nicer.
Any clues?
You can install the software, take out all files you want to edit from the folder they were installed to, and then replace them with the edited files. Sounds easy, doesn't it?
This is what I do when I edit the resources of various EXEs and DLLs - sure the same will work for images.
You can afterwards repack the installed program using, for example, SK Tools (Installed Programs - Marked items - Make cab) and get yourself a working installer
There might be better and more professional ways to do the same - if anyone knows, please educate us
You could use a .cab editer like Cab Manager. With that, you can extract and add files, and then re-save the new .cab file.
I'm trying to change the analogue clock on my HD2 but it won't change from the default clock (well sort of i've managed to change it from a square one to a round one), i've followed the instructions on moving the file into the device-windows folder.
but there's a file in there with the same name already and it doesn't replace the original file, if i try to delete the file 20F62884_manila it doesn't give me the option, the delete and rename options are not selectable, they are on the file i've pasted into the windows folder but not the original file, is it protected in any way ?
I'm using the file explorer that came with the Elegancia V8.0 Rom is this ok or do i need to use something else...
Many thanks...

The easiest way is to use a cab file! It will overwrite and it give you the possibility to uninstall so you get back to the original one!
Ore maybe you can simply used a program called CfC GUI!! Perhaps the most simply way if it is fore personal used!
more explication ore where to find it:

The file explorer which is on your device will not overwrite protected files.
But, search for "Total Commander" for Windows Mobile - it´s not the "freshest" software, but free, and it *does* overwrite protected files.
To make it more finger friendly, just change to large icons view!
Or, after all, as the previous poster mentioned, use cab files - those will automatically install and overwrite files.
Cheers for the reply's i've used a cab and yep changed the clock, but most of the clocks i've really liked are not as cab's so will try the total commander now, again thanks for the help, much appreciated...
Buggar even with total commander it says unable to delete file
If you will I make a cab for you! Perhaps the easy's way!!
