Hi, I got my HTC Touch Pro today as an XDA Serra. I've already flashed ROMeOS² v1.40.1 onto it, but wondered how I could remove the O2 startup screen?
Does anyone have any other ROM recommendations over the ROMeOS² v1.40.1 one?
thanks
search for splash screens for rapheal
This is the ROMeOS Splashscreen. Or
This is the default HTC Splashscreen.
Just "flash" it and you're done.

Change the splash screen
Its really easy to do this. Load Advanced Configuration 3.3 which is free to download from xda developers. Once loaded you will see an item called Spalsh Screen and also HTC animation (or at least that is what I have on my TP but it isnt a branded version). Open this up and you will see an entry called MS splash screen start up. Change this to whatever graphic file you have. You may also need to go into the HTC animation and change the Startup Gif as well. Its probably best to use the same type of file that is currently used. You can also change the sound or by purely deleting the entry you get no sound on startup. Reset. Job done!
Great, thanks for the help guys

Hi All!
My first post here - and its a question for anyone who might know. I have changed my T-Mobile MDA Compact to Orange - basic change - by not loading TMob stuff from extended ROM.
I would like to get rid of the TMob splash screen and replace with an Orange splash screen. Could any one be kind enough to point me in the right direction?

Try to follow it, but basically use use the bootimagetool maker to convert a bitmap to a compatible type, and then run the enclosed .cab file on your pocketpc.

Could somebody paste here the original HTC Polaris/Cruise Black screen, please...!!! I have a o2 Orbit 2 and the ROM doesn't offer the option for the black screen at the today's home. Instead of that, has a horrible Sunrise Screen which uses black menus
THX in advance

Do you mean this screen? It's not the fully original.

THX isv51, but didn't work, I have no option to choose a black theme on the today screen and when i choose the standard Sunrise screen from o2 and I take another picture (HTC grey) for the background, just look horrible.
Hi,
Don't know if it's of any use but I found a cab file in the windows folder on the TC. HTC_Home_PPC_Blue.CAB If this is the file that runs during customization might be helpful. If you're interested I could upload it for u (not sure about the 'blue' part though).
Do you want the Htc.tsk ?

I don't know about Metanol but I would love the HTC.tsk (I think).
I have an O2 XDA Orbit (i.e. the Artemis-based one not the new Orbit 2 Polaris-based device) and I also like the black colour scheme that HTC use. I've flashed my device to the official O2 WM6 ROM and I don't have (or need) the fancy HTC tabbed Today screen but what I would really like is to be able to change the colours on the default WM6 Crossbow theme to the HTC black colours. I think that if I just install a suitable tsk then this will do it won't it?
If the above is correct then please do post the HTC.tsk and hopefully that might solve Metanol's problem too.

qtek_metanol I think this is relevant

I will upload the HTC_Home_PPC_Blue.CAB in a couple of hours.
Sorry friends, I really forgot that thread, well, actually I have found the file that i was looking for, the HTC default.tsk.
I'll post it here for some other Orbit 2 users who want to get the simple original black HTC Home screen and so get the possibility to switch off the stardard Sunrise Home Screen.
And so looks the HTC default.
Hi qtek_metanol - i am new to this site and i just recently purchased an O2 Orbit 2 in UK. Managed to find this old thread.
I too would like to get the HTC home screen rather than the O2 theme. Can you let me know if all i need to do is add the HTC default.tsk file to my device under Windows directory to get the HTC home setup. Would this then give me a choice on my Today menu where i can select between O2 and HTC Home?
Finally can you confirm this won;t affect my original settings on my device and if i want to remove it all i need to do is delete the HTC default.tsk file and that would set my phone back to as it was originally?
Thanks
forgot to add that i tried loading the 6 button version and had lots of trouble with that hence i thought maybe the original HTC home (4 button) from the Polaris/Touch Cruise would work better on my Orbit 2. Can you confirm also this is the original Home screen you get on the TC?
Cheers

Guys, read read and read some more. (the Wiki to be more specific)
It is very very easy.
1. HardSpl your phone (make a donation to the kind people who made it for you) It is just a matter of plugging your phone into your pc, and clicking an EXE file.
2. Download the Shipped HTC rom you want 1.90 is suggested. and double click that exe file.
Then you are done.
I had the HTC Black theme beamed to me today from a friends diamond..but when i select it it just shows as the vodafone red and white theme..i dont really want to install the all the spl stuff just for the one thing.
Surely there is an easier way around this//?/

Problem with black theme on Touch Pro
I've downloaded the black theme and installed it with TF3D config 0.6.7
The install went perfectly and 958% of the theme works great.
However 5% does not and this is for me a very important 5%.
With the HTC weather app (and then the 5 day forecast), the letters of the 5 days are black one a black background. That's noy very handy. This happens also in the music list of the TF3D music player.
And in this player there is one other problem. When I go to the library (all music) the icon-bar stays the same as the standard TF3D, while ot should change to a bar that gives me the option of albums, genres, playlists and so on. I don't get this specific bar with this theme. When I change it back to my original Vodafone Red en White it all works perfectly. However I really don't like those colors. Can someone help me with these issues on changing the theme to original black.
i'm having the exact same problem with my pro.
black on black in the application list and the no horizontal bar in the music player
does anyone know why that happens? thanks for your help
// edit: i just tried it another time: tf3d config deletes 1095 manila files but only copies 989 back on the device. can someone confirm that?
Hey all. I am having issues with my today screen on my HTC Touch Pro with Windows Mobile 6.1. I am uanble to change the Wallpaper at all. It is stuck on a Blue wallpaper. I have tried setting it from The today screen theme changer and from My Pictures but selecting the "Set as Today Screen Wallpaper" Option. The Wallpaper will not change. I am extremely frustrated with this. I have only had this phone for 5 days. Please help.
NOTE: I am Using SPB Mobile Shell V 2.1.1 Build 3507 for all my shortcuts. But my issue is with the Actual windows Mobile 6 Today Screen.
Change Wallpaper on Touch Pro
You need to go to the touch 3D settings.. its on the scroll touch bar after weather and internet etc. Thats where you change the wallpaper. I did a hard reset before figuring it out. Good luck!!
you can't change wallpapers while it's controlled by your theme file. in TF3D you can change the format of the plugin itself by inside configuration, as ninfem posted.. but if you want to change the today screen background you will have to find a tsk that doesn't contain a wallpaper
RE:Change Wallpaper on Touch Pro
This has nothing to do with TF3D I am not even using TouchFlo. See notes under original Post. I am using SPB Mobile Shell 2.4 . And I did fix it. I had to download the Registry editing tool and deleting the Fixed wallpaper Registry key. Do not remember the exact string but all is well now. Thanks for trying.
Scott
Hi can you please tell me how you fixed it. i am having the same problem

HTC Touch Pro Today Screen Issue: Fixed
I had to download the Windows Mobile Registry Editor. Found here http://freewareppc.com/utilities/phmregistryeditor.shtml and I searched for Wallpaper. It had an Embedded Wallpaper. I deleted the Registry key for the Embedded wallpaper and have not had a problem with it since. It has been months ago Since I did it so I can't tell you anymore than that but all you need is PHM Registry Editor. GOOD LUCK!
having the same issue. Deleting the registry key, turning off touch flo, and soft resetting at least 3 times now. Won't go away. Stuck on some stupid blue background I can't get it to go away.
solution for touch flo users
I know the original poster is not using touch flo (see regisry hack). For those of you using touch flo I did the following which worked for all of the themes. I unchecked use this picture as the background, under start settings today. Closed that window and from the main touch flo screen (home) I scrolled to the right and selected settings (looks like a gear) and then wallpaper. Select the wallpaper of your choice and it shows up. No soft reset or registry hacks necessary. Not very intuitive but it worked.
I'm having the same problem. Can't get rid of the background image in the Today screen (when mobile is in locked mode) and the background image in Settings > All settings.
I've installed PHM Registry Editor, but I don't really have the skills to fix it. Please let us know in this thread if anyone figure it out.
Can't really understand why this problem happens.
Weird! Now the normal Today background image is back. Can't understand why. This smart phone is smarter than me...
Still, the settings background is not the right image.
i have one of my photos saved as my backround wallpaper, i have deleted this picture, but it is still my backround and i cant change it. the only thing i have loaded is an analog fire clock (had to do a soft reset) what do i do, please help.
Resolution.
Peace of cake
HTC Touch Pro 2,
Settings, All settings - Press "Today"
Use any theme and any picture you want HOWEVER,
Under Items tab, YOU MUST CHECK "HTC SENSE" Press ok, you are set.
If you don't check this you get a blank wall paper or the other things you may have checked only. Really simple! :-D But yes I had to figure it out
Hi,
I have just the otherday managed to upgrade my HTC Touch to an actual official WM6.1 OS supplied by HTC (belive it or not!). Since I bought the phone in Bangkok I have had to wait for the relese of the HTC Thailand upgrade.
It included the ThouchFLO 2d (which I recon sux....can't change a thing about it), but I really liked the big clock in wm6.0. Is there a way to download a file somewhere to get the clock (a clock) to show up at the "settings/today/items"?
I have had a look at the Throttle launcher, M2D but can't really get any of them to work properly....anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
/F
my device:
HTC Touch P3452 ELF0100, WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.19972 (build 19972.1.2.7)
ROM 3.07.707.02 WWE, 10/25/08
Radio 03.34.90
Not sure what you mean about big clock but do a search for HTC Home plug-in (I think the latest cab is version 2.1) and see if that is what you are after. Otherwise, have you tried the Manila 2D customizer tool (M2DC)? I don't know if it works on shipped roms TF2D but it might let you change certain aspects of TF2D.
Good luck
Hi,
Yes sorry for being a bit unclear....what I ment was ofcourse the digital clock display at the HTC Default Home screen. I have tried the HTC Home plug-in but it, as for so many others (feedback) freezes and forces me to hard reset.
The problem occurs when I turn off the Touchflo 2D in favour of other themes, I get no option to display a clock on the today screen (under items to display). Hence downloaded themes comes out as plain as can be without anything but a background, start and bottom bar.
I would like to have a digital clock display as for the previous HTC Default Home screen....or similar clock at least.
I read somewhere that you could display/hide the clock by changing registry values under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CClock, Disabled to 0, as per this website. I have chacked in that location but found no such registry value named cclock.
Staring to think I might be actually a bit stupid for missing something very simple.....you never know until someone tells you!
I hope I made myself a bit more clear...
/F
Well it sounds like you know what you are doing so I don't want to sound too "teachy". But what you are doing in the Item screen is turning off a Today plug-in (TF2D). AFAIK, everything that would appear on the Today screen is displayed as a plug-in. Your rom opted to show the TF2D plug-in. This plug-in overrides all others in the item screen so in order to use another plug-in, you must uncheck the TF2D plug-in. So with no plug-ins selected, you will have a blank Today screen.
There are several plug-ins you can install as alternatives to TF2D such as HTC Home, RLToday, etc. Just query Today plug-ins. Once installed you can initialise them from the Items screen. It is a little worrying that HTC Home crashes on your device. You might try a soft reset (small hole, poke with stylus) or uninstall it and reinstall it. It might be that you've run out of Program memory (Settings-->System--Memory). A soft reset will free it up again. I hope some of this is helpful.
