Hi
Getting a little confused here, right theres a couple of things that are really bugging me, one of them is the very first screen when turned on is a orange screen (the phone is unlocked and has a o2 sim in it) I would like to have this screen either in line with o2 or different. There is also one of these screens just at the end when the phone is turned off.
Now Im assuming that these screens have to be flashed, I herd the screens refered to as splash, start up, and a few other terms. Are these the splash screens or do these come later, and will flashing get rid of these screens ?
I've never flashed on this phone before, but have done on lots of other devices.
TIA

The splash screen shown on boot is flashed to the device, some ROMs here come with a splash some don't - in this case the splash that is present on your device will remain after flashing an OS only update. You can create your own splashes or extract them from other ROM packages - all the information to do this is on the forum (don't have time to give exact links, but it's there if you search).
The splash shown when the device is turned off is usually found in the \Windows folder on the device itself. On the Orange phones it's called Orange_shutdown.bmp and Orange_shutdown_L.bmp (for the landscape image).
Splash Screen flash how to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334907
1. Splash Screen.
2. Animation (You can disable this in register.)
3. Windows Mobile splash (You can edit this in Windows/welcomehead89.png (orsomething like that).

@ Buzz I have unlocked and unhidden the extended rom on the Verizon Apache PPC WM5 phone. I want to change the splash screen and have tried everything but it does not work. I have tested and verified I can delete and write to the extended rom. Arrrr I am tired of seeing the Test device and not for sale splash screen. I love my Universal!!! It was pancakes to change the boot screen. Any input would be fantastic. I am at a loss.
Thanks,
Mikee
That should help.... This way you dont have to re-flash the rom

Update: well i thought this is for the "test only not for sale thingy" but instead it lets you pick a screen that replaces the windows mobile logo (the green screen after the test one)
I want to change the boot screen on my O2 touch cruise (aka HTC Polaris). I'm talking about the O2 logo (the very first one during bootup), but not WM6-logo (some people call this splash screen) or alike.
I'm pretty confused , there seems to be no unambiguous answer to this. All solutions I've found so far are for other models, and I'm unwilling to play with flashing programs written for other devices.
Is there any, preferably noob-friendly, way to change the boot image?
TIA
Try this one.

Friends,
I was able to perform this on my tilt where I could change the boot screen where you can change the at&t logo startup. The rom had to be flashed with the new screen, but I am not sure if this can be done with the fuze/raphael.
Would someone assist and point me in the right direction.
Thank You,
Tvos
Well you could flash a whole new rom to the phone or you can simply search for splash screen and either flash the new splash screen or I believe that you can take a .gif and rename it to something like welcome96.png and drop it in the windows folder, I can't remember exactly, but just do a search for splash screens.

Hi,
The information that I have found on xda-developers about customizing the Splash Screen, Animation Screen and Windows Startup screens on my Kaiser has been very useful.
However the transition from the Splash Screen to the Animation Screen AND from the animation scren tot he Windows Startup Screen is interrupted by a screen that shows (on the bottom right hand corder) the radio version, and other related stuff.
I am wondering if there is any way to turn off what I am calling the 'radio' screen (I don't know how its officially called), so that the transition between the tree boot up screens is more natural?
Whats the name of the first bootscreen (the white screen with green HTC in it)
and can it be changed?
If so, i need the full name and where its stored.
Thanx.
The first screen after turn on phone can only be changed with flashing a new
bootscreen. For second screen with sound you find some cabs and for the welcom screen too.
