Changing Splash1 - EVO 4G Android Development

Anyone tried to change the splash1 that comes before the boot animation? Is it as easy as MT3G?

just to clarify, splash1, in less technical terms, it is the white HTC screen which appears before the stock sprint 4g boot animation?

Yes, I saw the thread to change the boot animation and got that done and now was wondering if I can just use fastboot to change splash1 to some image instead of that white htc.

Yes.

I believe you should be able to use the method that was used for the g1 back in the day.

its inside the rom.zip in each of the RUU .exe threads called splash1.nb0 , i think?
let me post it up ... http://www.joeyconway.me/evo/files/splash1.nb0

Does it still apply to the same rules since the resolution is now 480 by 800 vs 320x480

Yes, I would presume this would be the case. The modification should be to the resolution -- changing it to 480 x 800 should work out.

Hmm splash1.nb0 original is 768 KB (786,432 bytes)
My edited file the .raw565 ends up 750 KB (768,000 bytes)
flashed anyway and it worked. Yaaay,
So G1 splash1 flashing rules apply just adjust for resolution.

If you wouldn't mind, could you please post your results and a [HOW TO] -- add it to the front page and change your title. That would be beneficial to the community.
Good job by the way.

You can use my VPS. E-mail me at the GTalk address in my sig and we will discuss.

Thanks chuckhriczko, I ll email you as soon as I get this going, most of these files are hosted already so I just link them, I will put a 2nd mirror on a dedicated machine I own, and if you want a 3rd mirror on yours. More mirrors better.
Here is the image I tried flashing first. It is a free image from Digital Blasphemy
The aspect ratio was close but not perfect so i cut a little and squished a little. Just wanted to see if it worked.

if there is anyway to do this through an update.zip, i'd be interested in adding it to an online kitchen im slowly piecing together, with your permission on the images, of course!
thanks for takin the time and effort to test this!

I ll do some research on if it is possible to do this through an update, never done anything like it yet.

[Boot Animation] Android BSOD v2.1 (2010-05-12)

This is just something I threw together for fun, after reading one too many posts of people complaining of boot loops and other problems when flashing different ROMs and kernels. It starts with the normal Nexus One bootup sequence, then halts at a BSOD message.

To install the animation, rename the file to bootanimation.zip and adb push to /data/local
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Check out Random Boot Animations if you want to use multiple boot animations.
Update Notes:
v2.1 - Fixed typo in blue screen
v2 - Increased resolution of X animation, revised BSOD to an Android-related message,including a reminder on how to access the Bootloader.
v1 - Initial release.
Haha love it! I will have to show my co-workers this one.
Haha, nice work! I think this is a great idea. I'll try it when i get home!
Lol nice! How do you apply it and how can i backup my current one?
Thanks
how do I flash this? I tried through recovery but I got a verification failed.
sweet works great with random boot animation script
No one wants to answer because we have to search or they dont know themselves. im sure its a half/half. Little do they know they knew nothing at one point...
It's in system/media and named BootAnimation.zip. Use a file manager to copy it/rename it and then move the new animation in. You can push it from a laptop as well, but I never bothered remembering the commands for adb. A quick search really would have answered your questions. :]
you can push it to /data/local/bootanimation.zip
if you don't want it anymore, delete it and your original is untouched
Just ran it then, looks cool. But why is the X so low res?

Sorry, I was in a rush when posting this, and didn't have time to get back to this forum until a few days later. I've updated OP with installation instructions.

If you push the file to /data/local as in the instructions, your original bootanimation (which resides in /system/media) will not be overwritten. However, if you have another boot animation already at /data/local, you can make a copy of that before overwriting it with this one.
liam.lah said:

Click to collapse
This was just a quick hack thrown together for laughs. The problem is that the final screen needs to be at 480x800 in order to have a blue background. That means the rest of the images will also need to be at that ratio. The original X animation was done at 512x256, and if I rescaled it to 480x800 the animation lags a bit on my phone. So what I did was to downscale it to 240x400, which is why it appears low-res.
If people are actually interested in this I can experiment a bit to see what is a good compromise between speed and resolution.
OP is updated with V2 of the animation! If you liked the first one, you should definitely get this.

[REQ] White on Black Incredible Splash Screen

EDIT: It's done, look here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753938
Now that we can change the splash screen after using Unrevoked Incredible, is anyone able to extract the factory splash image from the Incredible and invert the colors similar to what was done for the Evo here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7005332&postcount=1
(I was going to do this myself, but I can't figure out how to extract the factory splash image)
Thanks!
this would look really nice.
I have extracted it here, but cannot figure out how to edit it. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7638559&postcount=4
I created a black boot graphic, I would love to see this made into an alternative splash screen.
I personally feel the black screen would really flow better with the animation on our phones.

Another user (deficitism) posted the stock splash image here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7653548&postcount=1 (linked at the bottom), but despite all of my searching I can't figure out how people are un-packing and re-packing these .img files.
There are similar threads discussing the conversion of .rgb565 files (like for the Evo), but I still don't have a clear understanding of what exactly a .img file is and how to properly manipulate it. Maybe some higher intellect can assemble a brief guide on this process.

XDA Flavoured Boot Screens / Startup Animations / Welcomeheads...

Boot Screens Etc.........
Thanks to MadrauM and his awesome boot package I was inspired to make one of my own in an XDA flavour
Thanks also to samsamuel for his tutorial on splash screens

Boot Animations
Installation
The first splash has to be flashed to the device; follow these steps
1 - Unzip xdasplash.bmp.rar to a folder on your desktop
2 - Connect you phone via activesync and make sure battery is >50%
3 - Run the CustomRuu that was in the zip
4 - Follow the on screen instructions
Dont worry no data will be deleted from your device
The boot animation should be placed in your windows folder on device memory.
Rename to either "animated" or "LEO_animated"
(depends on device, check your windows folder to see which one you already have there)
The welcomehead is the same.
May need to be named either "welcomehead192" or "well"
I'm Happy to Inspire You , specially becouse your work is fantastic !
I've added cabed versions of welcome screen and animation.
Looks good...thanks bro.
Awesome Work
Hey man , this is really good ....
Suggestion : How about creating some more fluidy animations with XDA-devs logo ???
Lets Improvise
the animations are pretty basic because I figured our how to make them yesterday if anyone wants to contribute then feel free....

Hi Madraum,
With these cabs do we still have to flash anything or will they install
on opening the Cabs ? It's the first Welcomehead screen,I'm concerned about here
really,I've installed other animation screens before,but never the Welcomehead
with the Radio and ROM info...
Thanx
Nope this cabs are only for animation and welcome . As for splash you must go like flashing radio or rom( there is no other way) but don't worry nothing bad will happen. This image change only splash screen when you power on your pda and its compleatly safe
Cheers Bud,so nothing for it,but to give it a try I guess...
Yup
Hey MadrauM, I tried to reply to your message last night but the server was overloaded
Thanks for making the cabs.
I was going to do it myself but I see you've beaten me to it
Thanks very much man
@marc
I was a bit wary the first time I flashed one but once you get the first one out of the way its ok

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
the short answer is. I don't know....
welcomeheads and animations will be fine but the splash screen requires you to flash it to the device using the custom ruu.
ok ive just googled the milestone and its an android device so these are not compatible with your device.
these are for winmo only. sorry.....
shouldn't be hard for someone to make an android version though if you ask nicely
I see this made the portal
thanks!
if anyone knows who's responsible for the xda logos then let me know so they can be credited in the first post!
Hey Buddy, is This Work For all of Devices?

Hey guys,
do you want to customize your HTC One M8 with some unique Bootsplash?
I've made some Splashscreens for you, most of them are in Renovate style,
but i will take requests and add them to the collection.
ATTENTION: S-OFF is required! Do not flash with S-ON!
You flash it at your own risk, as always!
Instructions: Flash in Recovery, Reboot, and Profit!
International and Sprint phones have the same splash partition, so they are supported.
I'm hosting the splashscreens on this page.
I won't add them there, because post is limited, and i want to have only one place, where you can get them.
If anyone request something, i will post a info, that the splash got updated on the page.​
Make your own Splash Screen
You want to create your own Splash Screen?
Go to this page
Thanks @touch of jobo for that awesome tool.
I've got an image
Sent from my baked potato with blue cheese
This works. Downloaded one of your Splashes to see if I could flash it, and it worked flawlessly. However, the tool used in this same thread doesn't work for me.
Is there any way, for those of us who are illiterate when it comes to code, to have a working tool that will allow us to use our own personally made images and flash them?

Just today, I added support for the One M8 to my online splash zip generator.
It is some php+shell script that pretty much automates the same thing that @SoLdieR9312 does manually.

No. The boot splash is one frame.
For laser beams you need a boot animation. That is what plays while you boot into android, after the splash and before the lock screen.
Still accepting additions to your collection? I have a few that some might enjoy.

SPLASHSCREENS - (S-OFF Only) - Flashable ZIP files

HELLO
My names Biggary, and I have been a member here for nearly eight years, so I thought I would give something back.....Some splash screens (The Picture that comes up when you boot up phone), To use these, you need to be S-OFF, and to be using a HTC One M8, to use, place the zip file in your internal/external SD card, boot into recovery (TWRP is what I use), and flash the zip file, when flashed, whenever you boot up next, the new screen will come up!!
SIMPLE EH?
Please note, the tool I use to create the splash screens, was not made by me.
Flashing these zip files is at your own risk, brick your phone, thats not my problem!!! Always back up!!!!
