Hi pof.
This is a great idea and I thank you for the instructions but I got to #6 and am so new to ROM building(virgin, in fact ) that I must ask....
In the htc rom tool do I leave all fields blank except for the splash screen entry? And where do I enter that? I assume that I type splash.nb into the splash1 field.
Else, do I fill in all of the fields such as country ID, version, IPL?
many thanks.

one more question. does this flash delete my current tytn's settings (do i need to flash splash screens after hard reset or anytime)?
re
Is there a way to make a .cab file to change the bootsplash image? Also i see some custom roms have a 3d intro (maybe flash?) how would i go about doing this?
Thanks
thanks a lot man
To change Splash Boot screen, made a picture 320x320 pixel 96dpi save it in .png and rename in welcomehead.96.png
Use Resco Explorer, copy, paste and replace the welcomehead.96.png in folder Windows, make a soft reset.
So, this will be the correct tool to use to format images for the Titan?

How do you run bmp converter? Not work for me!
I get 240 file eroor when trying to flash it to my tytn2.
Optical Illusion Splash Screens
Some optical illusions:
Animated?
Since the image is in .png format is it safe to assume that we can NOT load an animated splash screen??.. Also does flashing via the steps in the first post accomplishes the same as replacing the welcomhead.96.png manually??
Thank you..
jadehawk: you are correct that the welcomehead.96.png is non-animated, if you create an animated .gif and rename it to .png it may work in some programs that read inside the file for the relevant code to know how to display it but most programs including the wm6 bootup hook will not display it how it should so don't bother
Just to clarify that the original post by pof is "THE ONLY WAY" at present to replace the splash screen on initial boot of the phone, the welcomehead.96.png usage is on windows boot (some people have a 3rd animated .gif in between the 2, but this doesn't work on all models even with the registry entries in place, i have tried on my T-Mobile).
hope that helps.
Russ
Thank you
Great thank you for clearing that out.. for now I am just happy replacing the animated.gif file in the windows folder with something other than the HTC animated one.. I have tried to make my own ROM using the kaiser kitchen but so far It has never worked at least not like the really simple tutorials I have found here.. still waiting for a better tutorial with screenshots and all.. so far i will stick with the ones I get from here and use the sprite backup to restore the applications I want loaded in the ROM.. thank you

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

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......?

Now, whatever bootsplash cab i make, or download here.. after running it, my bootscreen stays blank ( as in black ).

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.

The old way to change your 1st splash screen uses the awizard prog or the splash_bmp_to_wizard prog. It was working before on the older ROMs.
Thanx to jesterz, mwiberg & lvsw & others, we now have many new ROMs to choose from. Unfortunately, the above method to change the 1st splash screen no longer works on these new ROMs. It always gives the ItWriteDisk error.
After crawling through the Wizard forums, I discovered they have found a way. Can't really remember the threads (there were several of them). For those who want to change their splash, just download this file: ftp://xda:[email protected]/Wizard/Splash_images/SplashScreenStuff.zip and follow the instructions included to the letter.
Warning: some hex editing is involved.
- all credits to the guys over at the Wizard forum.
PS: to change your 2nd splash, it is a simple matter of saving your image as a 240x320 png file, renaming it as welcomehead.96.png and copying into the windows folder of your device.
Good luck!
Be carefull NOT to use the ROM upgrade util in that zip, it for the Wizard, NOT the prophet.
get it from a Prophet ROM upgrade.

Yes, the upgrade utility in the zip file is for the Wizard. So what I did was to use the upgrade utility for the Prophet instead. Use the G3 or G4 version depending on your device.
There should be the following files:
enterbootloader.exe
nk.nbf (your created splash imge)
romupdateutility.exe (G3 or G4 version depending on your device)
ruugetinfo.exe
ruuresource.dll
Somehow for me, the romupdateutility-novendor doesn't work. So to get the romupdateutility for my device, I extracted it from a full ROM such as RUU-Prophet-G3-AKU2.2-2.20-2.47.21-Jester-b1
Hope this clarifies things a bit

The method in that thread is similar to my 1st post. Maybe the utilities they used are different. All the steps prior to the flash are the same. They are for converting a bmp file to a nb file and then to a nk.nbf to be used for flashing. It should work on the Prophet PROVIDED you use the prophet update utility (not the Wizard's) to flash.

Using that file will give you the HTC black logo. The steps I mentioned will allow you to use any customized image...
Could somebody please post an image of the HTC Black logo to see what it looks like before I try the standard update (i.e. from the FTP server & without using the HEX edit thingie...)?
Thanx!

Let's see if I remember this correctly:
1) double-click your .exe file -> it should start up the ROM update window as normal.
2) Go to windows/temp folder. You should see the files that the exe file extracted. (if you cannot find it, do a search for *.nbf or one of the other files - the file would be in the same directory). Maybe it is in documents and settings/user/local settings/temp in Win XP. I can't remember exactly as I'm on Vista now.
3) copy the RUU file to a separate folder.
There you have it.... unless I miss something.
You were right, Putra, it was the D&S\...\Temp folder. Thanks!!!

If u have winrar installed on PC, then just right click on any exe, and u will get extract options. Extract to any folder as u want, and get all files inside that exe.
Is there anyone that is able to create a program that can perhaps create a selv installing .cab file for splash screens, or similar? Those steps you have to take to change the splash screen now is kind of long and complicated.
Imagine a program with a very simple GUI that can change the picture to the required .bmp, create the necessary .nb and .nbh file, and then maybe a .cab file, or something.
Or is this impossible?
Does anyone feel they have the need for a program like this? Or is it just me that's lazy?
changing the bootscreen requires you to flash the rom
changing the after boot splash could be done using a self installing cab file, you can use wince cab manager to make one, or wait for a programmer like you said to do one that lets you choose what bmp or jpg or png and does the overwriting of the default splash for you. But you cannot do the first boot screen like that, you could make a program that automatically generated the .nbh file for you but you still have to flash it (it cannot be installed within windows mobile)

that file is in your ROM, but not as a .jpeg or some picture file.. There is a registry key that directs to a .dll file which contains the Splash Logo!

If you want to cook again with the right Splash Logo, use this resource:
You can only use a .jpg picture with a 320x240 (only for QVGA) resolution.
Place the file in \Application Data\Home\Your Custom File Name).jpg
Go to this path:
in HKLM\system\startup\1\
delete or backup STRING "DLL" Value "doani_Samsung.dll" (if any - found on remora)
create a new STRING with title "Splash" with VALUE "Application Data\Home\(Your Custom File Name).jpg"
in HKLM\System\Shutdown\1\
delete STRING "DLL" VALUE "doani_Samsung.dll" (if any)
create new STRING with Title "Splash" and Value "Application Data\Home\(Your Custom File Name).jpg"
I've tried all those things long time ago...So I say that the splash image may be contained in one of the files attached, so I'm asking if anyone can help me with that issue please
The old Windows Phone 6.0 image splash appears when I power on the phone...Then appears the Windows Phone 6.5 image splash...As I said before, that picture is not contained in my rom, dll file, etc

Choose the file you fancy, rename it to welcomehead.192 and copy it to /windows folder on your device. Restart, Enjoy!
All files are in .png format and if you copy them as it is and just rename them to welcomehead.192, it should work. Please let me know if it doesn't
How to change Splash screen
a) I have also made an animated .gif file if your ROM has a splash screen, you could replace it.
Splash Screen will ONLY work if your ROM already has a splash screen cooked into it. If you are using a custom ROM where splash screen has been removed, then you can't use the animated screen. If you try to install, you won't see any change! Don't worry, it won't brick your phone!
in HKLM\Software\Toshiba\StartupAnimation:
Enabled (DWord) : 1
GIFFile (String) : \windows\animated.gif
Change the one in BLUE to the WM_animated.gif, so that new animation file will be used instead of default 'animated.gif'

That's no problem at all, we will write feedback to XDA on the thread and ask them to provide more thanks per day
Miro, if possible, can you please test the animated splash screen on tg01? I can't. I think in your ROM you have removed the splash screen. If I get feedback and suggestions, I am ready to bang out some more of these babies
ha, tnx, again (i find 5x tnx per day is not enough)
yes, no prob. i will test it and i will make a cab with enabling htc animation!

Thanks Miro!
I will rename it as well as put it in first post so before install it can be changed.
I will try to flash stonROM tomorrow and see if it works.
Also will put in first post so everyone knows that it will only work on ROMs where splash screen is cooked in!
Thanks a lot for the help my friend

Try changing the name to welcomehead.192.png and it should work. All the files I have updated should be in .png format
WinMo will only use the file if it's in .png format.
Thanks drupad2drupad, welcomehead.192.png is the right name.
But I can't replace the existing file, how I can change the permitions?

u can use an external file explorer like Resco file explorer. In properties of file, untick system and hidden. Once u have replaced the file simply put the ticks back for new file. Hope this helps
Thank You again drupad2drupad.

You should be able to replace Orange splash screen with animated.gif - animated WM screen in the first post. You need a registry editor like Resco registry editor or total commander in order to make the registry changes I mentioned in first post.
Aha, now I understand. I'll try again wit WM_animated.gif from your first post.
