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?

Just a thought

Great Idea mate we should start a thread based on all custom splash screens who knows the cooks might even used some of them soon.

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

HI
I downloaded a WQVGA theme for my Omnia i900 from wmskins.com
and I found myself with a .rar file with 11 .dat files in it, such as:
"qa_clock_big.dat"
"qp_menu_btn.dat"
I have Spb skin changer but it wont show those when changing themes.
What do I do with those files???? (how do i install the theme???)
answer:
- disable sense
- download cab file and install
- extract cab to any folder in your computer
- rename 0CABBF12.004 file to 20F62884_manila
- use mode9 etidor at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=464984 to convert 20F62884_manila file in cab to png format
- convert png file to 256 x 256 resolution
- use mode9 editor and convert png to manila
- copy new 20F62884_manila to windows directory and owerwrite
- enable sense

I don't use any of them.
Maybe you must activate it, through CHT Editor settings.

We all are using Android phones...!!!
but some of us still uses java phones like samsung star and modding it....
here is the guide...
1. Hello … to make a bootanimation for samsung star.you will need softwares
Which are listed below….
QuB_public_v.0.3_001_beta (qualcomm and broadcomm multi.)
link :
Photoshop (any version)
Picasa
2. Now you will need the photoshop of any version. Open the photoshop edit the photo and crop it in size “240X400”. NOTE= in photoshop must adjust dimensions in “px” and pixel/inch.
3. Convert all images that you hav into .bmp files. Naw I have this 4 frames for ON and 4 for OFF
4. Then u need QuB Choose any profile of mobile with 240x400 screen (star, 5560 or any other), 240x320 for corby
5. Go in RC2 tab And replace your bootscreen for image (frame 1)
6. Then export this image as *.BIN
7. And name this any name, but names on all ON .bin images must be the same I will name this expboot1.bin Then convert other images in *.bin Now i have files
8. And now i must rename all BINs in *.1* *.2* *.3* *.4* *.5... formats, this is numbers of frames. Rename folders with this files in*Image*name
9. Now you need*Power.ini*file from your mobile or from any my boot-animation Open this file with Notepad
10. And now edit name of images prefixes (if names will be same, animations ON and OFF will be same too) Here I need indicate the number of frames for ON and OFF animations
11. And save Power.ini Thats all. Good luck all!
thus we have created bootanimation for java phones..!!!
