Change carrier boot screen. - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

Ive done a quick search but cant really find answer or i cant use search properly lol. Ive found threads about changing splash screen which im thinking is the Windows screen, But what im after is a way to change the brand boot screen like my tmobile for example?
I previously did this on my HTC Touch and bricked it so i had to use a recovery rom and that then gave me a "smart mobility for testing only" boot screen. Can i safely do this with by Uni and add a new one?
Somebody please point me in right direction.
Regards.

p.s. the threads that you found on xda, they are for the first screen too ( to change the T-mobile,Vodafone, etc. logo)
just can't find it right now.
i repeat they are NOT for the second (windows logo) screen

nice1 thanx, just done it and it works perfectly
I cant have read the threads properly, probably too tired at time. Gunna create my own and have another go.

i'm glad that it worked

Having strange probs flashing these screens, When changing from one to other sometimes they dont seem to change properly and instead overlap old one half way down or something.
Managed to get a decent looking screen but with black bar at bottom, will settle for that for now and try again tomorrow.

i need a volunteer at&t tilt rom tester...

i got this rom made for me by kareem9nba. I could not get past the "tap here to configure" screen, but kareem9nba flashed it to own device, and had no issues with it. Could some one with an at&t tilt, please download, flash, and test this rom... I have flashed it 3 times, all 3 times i can not get past the "tap here to configure" screen. I just want to know if its some problem with my device, or what. I have tried several other roms, all of which have worked great, but they were not what i was looking for. That is why i posted in kareem9nba's custom rom thread, and had this rom made for me. The strange part is, even though the touch screen seems dead, when i press and hold the power button, i get the power off menu, and can select yes or no via the 4-way pad and power down. if i recall, you can not even get to that menu until you complete the device configuration, and make it to the today screen. Its almost like my screen is just stuck on the same image, and never refreshes, while everything just keeps running in the back ground. Please, just so i know if its just my device, or a bad rom, or what, could someone please flash and test this rom to their tilt?
P.S.: To kareem9nba, i mean no disrespect, its just i am at my wits end.
I got you. I'll flash it and see if it works on mine. Hang tight.
edit: Nope, doesn't work. Can't get past the "Touch to Configure..." screen.
would you mind sending a pm to kareem9nba? nice to know / see its not just me. Thanks for testing.
Done. I had to give him props for the BIOS splash screen too.
We can lock this one down...
Thread closed as requested and message sent (to ramidavis).

prob with screen, need to bypass 6.5 lock screen

hi there,
i was working yesterday and my phone was in my pocket and was squished against my keys! the screen is cracked... but it isn't, i think its the touch censor screen or something as i can see the screen fine just with a crack in the middle... anyway i cant use the screen to touch
i am using wm 6.5 and i accidentlly pressed the lock button in the start menu and cant seem to get passed the wm6.5 slide2unlock screen!
i try'd a soft reset but it is there as soon as it turns on
i dont want to hard reset because i would need to use the screen calibration (plus i havnt backed up my contacts and have some important messages!)
it is really frustrating i try'd deleting the files in the windows directory but it says it is read only and i cant delete it!
and im a bit broke and cant afford a new screen!
could someone please help
i would very much appreciate it
kind regards
Alex

I'm no expert in this field, but have tried to sync the phone and unlock it from there? raspberry tru connect is an excellent program and if your d pad still works you should be able to install it and use the mouse cursor to do what you need to.
I have also heard of booting in safe mode, although I have no experience in it, but I'm sure if you check the wiki of your device you should find an answer.
Hope one of these help.

Not that I know of because of the installation needed on the device. If the ROM you are installing does not have the setup features and are already calibrated then you can install the program like before and be good to go.
I'm sorry, I know this isn't what you wanted to here.

Sure thing. I should be flashing this weekend if not sooner. Trying to get a few programs to play nice together and not having any luck.
I'll let you know when I do and we'll see if it works and go from there.

Stuck in RUUNBH screen

So today I had a little problem with my phone. First off it was working fine all day and at night I tried to look at my phone but the screen would not get off a blank black screen. And it would only turn on once in a while but clearly didn't function correctly. So I was told to try rooting it to downgrade it to make it run better. So when I followed the step in, http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php/Full_Update_Guide_-_G1/Dream_Firmware_to_CyanogenMod , the installation keeps failing and I can't get out of the boot setup. I've tried everything and it's driving me crazy. I've tried so many searches and read everything I could but there hasn't been any solutions for this problem. Does anyone know how to exit the Red green blue white screen? The Call+Menu+End key doesn't work at all when I was told it should. Can anyone help me with this?
Sorry I have a T-Mobile HTC G1

Android on Xda Orbit 2

Hello, I have a XDA Orbit 2 (screen res 240x320). I wanted to install Android on it. I did a quick search and found a few things....
My Tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625200
I had a read though that. Got a rough idea on what I was doing.
(1º CHOOSE YOUR ANDROID BUILD) I decided to use:
Warm Donut (Donut): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619980
(2º INSTALL THE OS LOADER TO NAND) Now this was my problem, I visited the website "http://it029000.massey.ac.nz/vogue/files/?C=M;O=D" to choose my .NBH file. I choose the latest ones. And the selection was:
polaimg-panel1-320-08-04-10.nbh
polaimg-panel2-320-08-04-10.nbh
polaimg-panel3-320-08-04-10.nbh
I tested ALL 3 and non worked (unless I was doing something wrong) all i got was when it restarted it went to a fizzy kind of screen then came straight to a white one.
But I did try another .NBH file what was near the bottom called "polaimg-240x320-03-02-10.nbh " that didn't work but it was close.... when it restarted it vibrated once then went to a black screen then vibrated twice then came to another screen with a animal in the top left and under niethe they was loads of white numbers letters scrolling down the screen then it just got stuck on that and nothing happened from there.
EDIT:
I have got a bit closer now. I decided to try run it through haret, Well... I click Run. see black screen with letters scrolling, I get to the bit where it says "Hold down Volume Up or DPad center to launch installer. And before I have chance to do that this appears under:
Code:
sh:2: unknown operand
losetup: /dev/block/loop 1: No such file or directory
Failed
Failed to reach system.img on SD card.
Can anyone help me? or point me in the right direction to get android installed on my xda orbit 2?
Thanks, James
Just try a earlier nbh i use polaimg-panel3-320-29-03-10.nbh most of the later ones have either problems with sound or wifi.
If you get a white screen it's prob wrong panel depends on you phone pola100 or 200.
Thanks, But I have tried that.
I have a new problem now. Might be easier to solve.
can't anyone help? kinda in a rush for it.
Hi,
i had the same problem with another build.
You should try to get into the installation menu and install Android.
This helped for me.
I found the solution here on xda-developer.
Since I am too new or too stupid to post a link the post seems to be this one:

Have fun,

Endless alignment loop on Touch Pro

Hi all,
I bought a second hand Raphael on eBay. The previous owner said he flashed WinMo 6.5 and a HardSPL. Something seems to have gone wrong somewhere, because WinMo starts up and shows the welcome screen and then the touchscreen alignment dialogue over and over. As soon as I touch all five points, the alignment process starts again.
I have already re-flashed WinMo 6.5 an 6.1 with the same results. I have also added a WELCOME.NOT file and tried a soft reset. The file just disappears after the reboot.
The boot loader says as version numbers:
R 1.14.25.05
R 52.63.25.34u
D 5.00.00.00
I'd be glad for any pointers. Maybe a pre-calibrated rom?
Also, I actually want to run Android on the little fellow. Could I just try to flash LightNHB and run Android from there?
Thanks for your help.
Regards,
Kevin
That's not the bootloader screen numbers, but I don't think that's the problem. It may just be a crappy rom on there. Getting to the alignment screen is a good sign that the device isn't bricked. I would say just flash another rom; use one of the android-starter roms if that's what you want on there.
Thanks for the answer, unfortunately it seems the touch screen is broken
I managed to install Android using LightNHB, worked a treat. Androids calibration screen seemed to take all five poinst, but the coordinates it printed out where all on the same y-coordinate. The touch screen doesn't work in Android after that (I mean, how could it ).
I'll have a look around to see if I can buy a new screen for cheap.
