Use Advanced Config to set your sounds and animations or change the registry.

Looks nice

it looks lovely thanks

Very nice Alien44! Hope you don't mind but I shared this with the members on http://www.htc-pure.com/index.php since it looks so good ( with credit to you)! We don't get alot of posters or file uploaders so they need something fresh! If you want me to remove it just pop me a message and I will.

this is really great stuff thanks man! Keep them coming I am really glad someone did this at last!
I tried this on my Tilt with the stock ATT ROM and it did not work. Any prerequisites before trying this?
With WWE 1.56.405.5 works great my friend.

Bump/clarification: So, is the only way to get this to work is to entirely dump the AT&T ROM?
for the tilt, the default file for the startup animation is different from the tytn 2. i don't remember what the exact filename was. but what I did was save the .gif animation into my \windows directory on my tilt, then i used a reg editor. once you have the reg editor installed go to
hklm\software\htc\startupanimation\GIFFile
then edit the string to \windows\filenameofanimation.gif

It is animated you just have to refresh the page. It doesn't go through an animation loop.
great stuff!!

sorry panosha, but this Image is defected, by me too!
Here you have
great work mate, you might se one of those animated theme in my next rom
The animation doesn't loop, Firefox only showed me the last frame even after refreshing....
however, in ImageReady it shows up right...
the animation is ~2.5 seconds long, probably works fine on the PPC, just not for viewing here
Just wanted to say EXCELLENT work. I love the animated graphics. Some are just pure a work of art.

Lockscreen Wallpaper Collection

I'm not a good developer. I wish I could contribute in that respect. But I made a few wallpapers so I thought I could share this with you guys.
BTW, can anyone point me to a good lockscreen/wallpaper rotation app (my idea is to get a bunch of lockscreens and rotate them every time i turn on the phone)
edit: looks like the Hardy png I submitted got converted to .jpg, which looks horrible. Here's the better version of it on ImageShack:
You will need to add a http before the thing I'm about to post because new users aren't allowed to post links.

Hi again. Here's the rest of them. Had to wait 5 minutes and post twice to get around the max 8 attachments They're all formatted so that they don't get blocked by the default SenseUI lock info bar. If you guys have a clear lockscreen for 2.1 ROMs (mainly DamageControl... does it matter them ROM, Android version, or base?)
If anyone is wondering, I just did this real quick in Photoshop - first find an image with vertical appeal (rotation is an option to achieve this), scale the height down to 455 pixels (image size), then crop the width (canvas size) to 320 pixels. Easy peasy.
Here is one I created. Enjoy

Edit: I can change the background color if someone wants.

you can use lockbot, just load your images onto lockbot and then you can have your lockscreen wallpapers plus either iphone, eclair, flan, type slider. and then you will see a new one everytime you unlock your phone. its doesnt always work for me lol. but it does most of the time.
awesome. thanks, both of you.
I have just been using photos I put on my phone for background and lockscreens.....
Is there any easy way to recover a lockbot wallpaper from a nandroid backup I made before wiping and reflashing to DC? I obviously don't need Lockbot anymore now that I have the Eclair lockscreen, but I really miss the cool lockscreen glowing-droid image I used to have.
I guess I could reinstall Lockbot & redownload the wallpaper since it's still in my market list as a purchased app, but where would the wallpaper image itself be stored? Also, if anyone knows, are Android apps all totally self-contained universes, or could Lockbot screw up my now nicely-running phone in ways that would persist after uninstalling it (kind of like how you can smoke a brand new copy of Vista badly enough to need reinstallation by trying to install a 10 year old copy-protected game)?
The wallpaper should be on your SD card under .lockbot. That is where all themes are stored.
This is gonna turn into another porn thread shortly.
I absolutely love the calvin and hobbes one from the first post. absolutely beautiful
Thanks op. Nice pictures. I like A most.
OK, so I switched to Lockbot and now I don't need to raise the pictures so high anymore. I remade the ones that are now too high and attached them. I also made a Flan-style theme in Lockbot called "MiniFlan" that's designed to show off wallpapers more than tell the time (the clock and date are really small). Attached is a preview of what it looks like. You can download it here:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YJ8IFWLE
Note: This theme contains a crapload of lockscreen pictures too. If you want to get just the lockscreens but not the theme, download the theme and look in the "bg" folder. You'll find almost all of the lockscreens I use right now. There are 69 of them and I love them all.
Err you know what, Lockbot is really not playing nice with my phone. I think I'll uninstall it soon.
Here are a few I collected around the web. Some are common ones but a few are unusual. I have quite a few more.
Let me know if you want anymore out of my collection.

Topaz Bios Startup Animation

I spent some time building this Diamond 2 custom animation and I hope you like it. Just install the cab (it installs automatically into the internal memory) and perform a reboot... than enjoy the new look of your booting sequence.
​
Please report here if the animation flows to fast or too slow, if needed I will readapt the speed. The animated gif attached in this post is faster than the actual gif contained in the cab file.
Works perfectly looks a lot better than the original.
RESPECT!!!!!!
Nice
Thanks mate
Can be it uninstalled if you want?
Remove..
Yes, just remove the CAB file in Add/Remove Programs list and soft-reset..
Works fine and looks great! Thanks
does this animation do the actual testing of the boot parameters or just dummy?
Well, it's just dummy Windows Mobile doesn't have a real-time bootloader with dynamic text displaying. This is just an animation to make the impression of a bios bootloader. However, the text content corresponds with Diamond2 hardware, to make the animation somehow more credible.
Absolutely amazing.
Congratulations Optyqus!
thanks, it works, and also in diamond1
I made also some animation, next time i'll try make better one
BTW What is max of size of image?
EDIT: If anyone can tell me the animation it works, because temporary I do not have a phone.

alien44: when i saw that image of yours, something cross my mind:
It's wonderful... but what if you reverse the animation... like a great amount of small pieces joining to form the words?
Just an ideia

Hello, I do appreciate your topaz/leo startup BIOS-style... any chance you'd make one for TD2 older brother, that is Diamond (DIAM100)?

Yes, yes - the reverse one
Iam also for the reserve implosion...plz do it
Not to step on any toes but....
Hope this helps.
**Edit** I had a registry error in this file so it may not have worked. I have uploaded the fixed version.
That file is the reversed animation with auto installer, right?
Thanks Bruce.. you are always there...

Yes Sir...
Should work but I didn't test.
I did notice the implosion animation is significantly larger than the Bios animation.
ok how and the heck can i change the startup animation to anything i want cuz i have several ones ive made and i wanna use them but i dont kno how to do it

There are some Registry keys that control that:
HTC ANIMATION:
HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation :
StartupGif - \Windows\animated.gif
StartupWav - \Windows\***.wav
SPLASH SCREEN:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Splash Screen :
CarriereBitmap - \windows\welcomehead**.png
MSBitmap - \windows\welcomehead**.png
Go to your Registry, check if this ones are the ones you have. If so, check the filenames and path.
There you have the files and path used by your phone. Copy the new files to the path with the same name (Overwrite) or change the registry setting to new files. Get it?

Preview of my upcoming Boot Animation...

A taste- still working on some banding in the images after the resize, once it is fully optimized I'm going to let you guys have it (and it will be finding a home in a custom ROM near you..).

"Sorry, the page that you requested cannot be found. Try searching for something else."
Anyways how did you figure out the crashing issue? And what was the solution?

Ah, my bad..and I still haven't figured out that particular animation..working on it still, think I will run the images through a resizer..
The link should work now- OP edited..
Ohhh......nice job.

I can't understand what it is.
i like looks pretty cool. i want to figure out how to add boot sounds. is it as simple as adding a "oog" or similar , that would be really awesome with an electrical type sound

It's like transformer-ish metal plates sliding together with a jet-engine 'eye' spinning up in the middle..
The hard part was getting the bootloader screen no screen cap for that
Me and Sharpe are working on a nice theme for his upcoming ROM release (not spilling the beans I hope Sharpe?? ) so this is a teaser..the theme should work for all versions..this is just the boot animation for it..
Going to release this as a raw bootanimation.zip file here in the OP once I get it just right
Hey luna_c666 , any chance of sharing the bootloader screen ? . I wanna incorporate that into my next boot animation
I have the three bootsplash images but getting them in just the right position on a black background will do my head in lol.

Sure just credit me because you are right it was a bit of a pain to reconstruct with accuracy..
Good job. In the future, you might find it easier to simply create a .gif from all the .png files and put that in your initial post as opposed to a youtube video.

Yeah, this was just a test of one of many versions I made, and I made the vid for someone I am working with in development of a custom ROM, and, I also was asked to show a friend over facebook. The youtube video of my test bootanimtation booting on my own TF solved all three of these demands
Also, since it isn't the final version I didn't want to create a gif for it just yet.
Wanted to bump this, let you guys know that it's coming along, I am trying to optimize the images so they won't band so badly before I release it, but in the meantime I have a teaser of a new theme (and more to come of this theme's variants) for the TF101..I've put a good deal of time into it, so I figured I would share a glimpse or two So far I've skinned the notifications bar, buttons, quick panel and some of the random status bar icons (like micro SD, SD, and HDD icons etc.). More to come!

Request LCARS / Star trek boot animation.

Has anyone found a decent Star Trek LCARS Boot animation or theme that can be used on our belvoed note.
I have been searching for one for when i go into geek mode
any links would be welcomed with massive thanks free beer and a plate of cookies. :laugh::laugh::highfive:
+1
+1
TNG rules!
Blu ray soon
Soooo......Seems to be you got one fitting GNote's screen...
Why are you not sharing?? :laugh::cyclops:
.
Here you are lads. I have edited it to fit our screens perfectley and attached a screen shot for the end.
I take no credit for the actual images as I found them in a post over in the Evo section. The Poweron.ogg file I use can be found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722149&highlight=star+trek
I have too others but they need a little work on them as they look a little squashed at the moment.
The bootanimation can be found here : https://www.dropbox.com/s/gganaqau6qr47kc/bootanimation.zip
Just use a root explorer ( I prefer the one in room toolbox pro ) and paste it into system/media then reboot.
If you like please hit thanks....or a beer would be fantastic lol
A good start but needs a longer animation but cheers now to find a good theme
Ive got a longer file but i need to figure out how to rotate it as it looks awesome in landscape mode but squashed in portrait mode.
Good luck you seen the sms, contacts and keyboard shame you have to instal diff progs to get them all changed you would think someone could do a flash that could do it in 1 prog
