Splash Screens? - Touch Pro2 CDMA

I had done a little searching and came across RSB-BMP Converting Tool and NBH Converting Tool.
The only issue was this appeared to be for Touch Pro (Raph) will these work on the TP2. I did not want to test it and brick my phone just for boot/splash images.
http://www.pocketpc-live.com/pocket-pc/how-to-change-splash-screen-of-touch-pro.html
But I like the roms I have used, but I would like to change the images. Any help would be great

I´m sure it will work on TP2 or an other htc wm device because they all use the same files for the splash screen or is that wrong?
It wouldn´t brick your device because its only a picture and not a bad rom or a wrong radio...

here are the tools for the rhodium splash...

Just wanted to say thanks for the quick reply and the tools.
Much appreciated

Could this be used for Rhodium CDMA version such as Sprint (Rhodium 400) & Verizon? Does it use the same file and command? Thx

The NBHUtil loaded and when I say build it acts like it does (reports Done!) but no file is created, no errors. Any ideas? Running on Windows 7.

Startup Splash Screens...

Is there any way to actually pull all three of the existing startup splash screens off the Wizard? Would like to pull them off, edit them, and put them back on again. I know how to do the latter, but cannot locate any directions (if it is even possible) on how to pull them off into an editable format.
Thanx.

I don't think that's possible. Not sure dough. I tried it, but you cannot restore properly splashscreen 1 and 2

So, the only way to fix a problem on the first splash is to start all over and reflash it?

Safe for use with G4 and G3.

Run the update utility as always. It will only flash the boot screen.

That's all fine and dandy. However, I am looking to edit my own screens that I've already flashed to the device. I was hoping there would be a way for me to extract them back off so I could just change a little something. I guess that's what I get for not saving a copy, eh?
If you want.

Nice work there. I like it
yea this is nice im using this one
Here's a couple of screens that I think may be what you are looking for (or very close). One is the HTC Logo (but its bigger than whats in the Faria and nottoosmart roms). The other is the Black screen with the world and the Windows logo over it.

I've tried it and I can only see the file on my device with that rom! I can't view the file on any other rom and my pc. The 3 splash screens, as far as I know can cut back to two. You can have the same splash for both but its the same pic twice.
update 4-10-2007
Finally got pic to be seen on pc. I wanted to change the 3rd or welcome secreen so I renamed my pic and replaced what was already on my device. It works but not in landscape, no big deal...I don't boot with my keyboard open anyways.

ok you can do this but not in the exact way you specified.
The way i did it is to take the rom that has the splash screens in it and dump it, I used Molski.biz rom tools, I won't go into detail about dumping a rom. use typo5.exe
then i used bcl.exe to extract the .nb files into bmp
I am not going to do a step by step here that is the general idea.
I don't know how to get a rom off a phone but if you have the rom that you put on the phone dump it and grab the splash screens from it.
the tools i used are in molski's devpack
btw the 3rd splash screen is a png file in the rom with some stupid name it is um welcomehead.96.png and it is actually a perfect 320 square so that it will load nicely in both portrait or landscape mode
I attached a Scarface splash screen I made using the HTC logo extracted from splash screen one of one of the newer roms

can a flash this on my G4 locked vario, i us the xplore1.1 rom of anichillus
its fantastic, i wil flash only de screen whit the spl ipl numbers still tmobile screen is comming i dont like that sorry for my bad english
thanks all
I am a newbie. How do I know whether my phone is a G3 or G4. I am using Dopod 838. Can someone show me how to change the boot screen and to use the update utility safely.
Thanks in advance.
Go read the wiki.
To tell the difference between a G3 and a G4 wizard, you must look at the IPL and SPL versions. To find out what IPL/SPL version your Wizard has, turn the device off and back on. At the first splash screen, the IPL and SPL versions will be written in red at the top of the screen.
A G3 Wizard will have the following IPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.).
SPL: 1.xx or 2.xx or 2.xx.00x (Note that this version only has TWO 0's.)
A G4 Wizard will have the following IPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)
SPL: 2.xx.000x (Note that this version has THREE 0's.)

Of course you can change the Splash Screens. I have a G4 Wizard and now have XDA Mobile 6 and added the Splash screens that are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=310954
but you need to use the Update Utility from Wizard Love, just swap the nk.nbf file.
You can also use the Update Utility from Wizard Love to change the Radio ROM.

From what I've read you need to remove your sim card and your microsd card then try again
There is no simcard and microsd in the htc Kaiser.
on the HTC Kaiser is the original T-Mobile software, nothing else
Perhaps your problem is related to new SPL... take a look at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=349476
Cheers.
When your phone is booting up, look in the lower right corner. If you have a line that reads:
D 1.57.00.00
Then you most likely have the issue in the thread mentioned by jcespi2005. If you have:
D 1.56.00.00
Then its probably something else (as 1.56.00.00 should be able to do the HardSPL).
Why not flash the old SPL to the device then you can use Hard_SPL. I havent checked but arent there original ROM available(of course CID/carrier specific) from before 1.57.

The real problem is SSPL used to flash HardSPL is not working with this one, so you can't go back to previous SPL... don't know what shipped ROMs are out that allows flash over this SPL...but perhaps this can be a way to go...
Cheers.
The Rom of my Phone is d.1.56.00.00 !
I do a hardreset, but Hard SPL dont work!
well... for the Tilt you can't flash the "official" ROM back to the device because of an "Invalid Vendor ID", I'm not sure why this is but it just doesn't work. You can however flash the AKU0.4.4 ROM to an unmodified Tilt so the CID apparently is good on that ROM. However I've done this and it does not fix the "white screen" issue on the affected devices.

Quick bit of advice on Splash Screens!

Hi All
Hopefully a quick one this...
I am getting more into customising my device and am planning to hack my own ROM at some point onto my device. Starting off with some UC components which are working well, but I would like to learn more about how splash screens work on the kaiser.
I have successfully managed to replace the very first splash using a custom .NBH file and RUU, but would love to learn (if) how I can do the others. For example my current ROM which is Duttys displays the animated HTC logo with the custom wording on it "Dutty,s Series" AFTER the one I have flashed to my device. It then displays the green Windows Mobile Splash before finally getting to the OS GUI.
Is it possible to either remove or replace these two screens at all?

I think one of them is welcomehead.96.png and one is called animated.gif. Both in \Windows\
You have to enable the animated one (there's a setting in scahps Advanced Config for this).
This been asked and answered wery many times, whit some searching you can find it all and more...
The first one is startup animation wich you find in the register:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"GIFFile"="\\Windows\\animated.gif"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The file can be of variouse names, animated.gif, animated1.gif or something completly diffrent so look for the one unders GIFFile.
Click and refresh for animation
The secound is the splashscreen wich is under
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen]
"CarrierBitmap"="\\windows\\welcomehead.96.png"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Also that name can be diffrent..
For an easy way use Advance Config Tool By schaps and SEARCH before asking.
Good luck.

I sure they wont re-lock it. However the OEM in this rom is for the Sprint CDMA version. I'm pretty sure it won't function correctly on the unlocked GSM. The CDMA versions are pretty different.
As for odds of success, I have no idea. No one to my knowledge has tried the MicroSD update method, and I build the rom with a kitchen I've never used before. I just can't test until I actually get a Treo Pro on Monday.
ok i wait and see what hapens on monday, and if u succeed than u think u can make a GSM version of 6.5 ?

I would need a rom dump from your phone. All of the raw parts using itsutils would be best. That's how I'm going to backup my alltel rom when I get the phone.
I couldn't get my phone to boot from the SD at all, I may need to reformat it to try but even from the stock rom it wouldn't boot. It is possible this is an issue with the SPL-0.37.0000

Make sure it's FAT32, and use a normal sd not sdhc. Then hold the volume up and powerbutton while inserting the battery. Once it's in bootloader mode, hitting the power button again should start the flash processes. See the HTC service Manual for directions.

I'm pretty sure this is how. Without a hard-spl, the only other way is to use itsutils to write the rom back to the device, but that is dangerous.

Don't even try to flash a rom built for a CDMA Treo Pro on a GSM Treo Pro. The best thing you can obtain is a brick. In order to dump you rom, here you'll find a complete tutorial in the wiki:

NightRaven,
I just tried your Rom but it doesn't work. It seems like you're still missing something. It stuck on the gray screen and says "Loading..." Just to confirm I didn't do anything wrong, I extracted the rom from the sprint 1.04 and it did work. Also seems like your Rom is smaller than the official Rom 73MB vs 140MB. Anyways if you have another one to try out, let me know and I'll try it out. Thanks for the hardwork!
NightRaven said:
OK. I have built a WM6.5 rom for the Sprint Treo Pro (It's all I had for an OEM dump. Alltel will come monday night when I get my new phone.). I have not tested this, becuase I have not yet received my phone. Are there any BRAVE sprint users out there that want to give it a try. You will be testing two things.
1.) Does the microSD card update described in the Treo Pro Service Manual work with unsigned roms?
2.) Does my 6.5 rom work?
Make sure you have a backup of the current sprint rom! Hopefully if it there is a problem, you can reflash the sprint rom for the 1.04 update. If you don't have it, get it off of Palms support website.
I HAVE NOT TESTED THIS PROCESS OR THE ROM YET!
I WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR A BRICKED DEVICE!
ATTEMPT WITH CAUTION!
MicroSD Card Update Instructions
Format the micro-SD card as FAT32.
Rename the file from rru_signed.nbh to pantimg.nbh
Copy the pantimg.nbh file onto micro-SD card.
Insert the micro-SD card in the Treo Pro.
Put handset into boot loader mode by pressing power and volume up button.
