pretty sure this belongs in themes

I had found a splash screen creator program, but its only for older android devices. I too would like to be able to create custom .img files. Anyone know how?

original splash screen
So far I have had no luck in making my own boot screens, but I did manage to make it so we can re-enable the stock boot splash if it was changed to the unrevoked custom.

Any update on this?

Search how to create splash. There's a how to in this thread I used works great.

Boot Animation - Simple Inverted Incredible Loading

A lot of people like to have flashy, colorful, crazy boot animations. I like to keep it simple, very simple.
Overwrite the bootanimation.zip or VZW_bootanimation.zip wherever it's located on your ROM (usually /data/local or /system/customize/resource). I prefer to do this with Root Explorer.
I don't know if small-sized boot animations have any impact on start-up speed, but this one's pretty lightweight.
(Update: matching splash screen added in post below)
This looks really good and I have installed it.
Can you make a splash screen that appears just prior to this animation?

Here you go!
Place PB31IMG.zip on the root of your SD card. Reboot to Hboot.
You should be prompted to install your custom splash1.
(I actually made this splash screen a couple months ago, but I since removed the 'TM' from the logo --- original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=753938)
I got em both working!
Thanks, again!

I love the simplicity of this. I took a similar approach in uncommon sense. well done.
Before I try this, I just want to make sure that my phone can take it. Im running CMod and I just want to replace the splash screen that first pops up when it turns on, not the boot animation. If I install the Pbimg.zip file will that just replace my splash screen? also before I do this, can a nandroid backup restore my splash screen If I want to revert back to the origional? Thanks. I really like this splash screen and it looks totally awesome. Please PM me for your Answers!

The splash screen wont replace your boot animation. And nandroid doesnt save splash screens.

For some reason every time I try to install the PB31Img.zip it doesent install in HBoot. I have no idea what could be the problem. i also tried to install it from CWmod and that didnt work Either? Any ideas as to what might be the cause? I really like this splash screen but for some reason it just wont flash in hboot. I have S-Off but for some reason it still doesent work.

I'm not sure what the issue might be. Make sure you are in the Bootloader screen that says "HBOOT", not "FASTBOOT". When you load HBOOT, it should prompt you after a few seconds to install the update. (ClockworkMod/Recovery shouldn't be used at all for updating splash screens)
I just double checked the attachment posted here. Works fine. Make sure you place it on the root of your SD card.
Thanks for the boot animation. It's lightweight and speedy, just what I needed.

Is your SD Card formatted to FAT32? That's where I slipped up, once I did that I could mod my splash to my heart's content
EDIT: Agh, sorry, didn't see page 2 of this thread and thus remy2501's already suggested this. What else could be wrong.. is it on the root of your SD Card? Is the volume up rocker the first button you press when going in to hboot?

Remember to be very specific as to the name, the only thing you should be installing in the root must be named: PB31IMG
Not PB31IMG.zip or PB31img and so on.....if that doesn't work there might be a problem with that particular splash screen. Once you get it installed, remember to remove that zip file from the root otherwise next time you go into HBoot it will ask you to reinstall......Good luck !
Oddly enough, I lost 3G after installing this. After rolling back to a previous backup, 3G is back.
I installed it around 3pm yesterday and somehow was oblivious to not having 3G. My phone had even restarted a few times after that, yet no 3G. All day I have been wondering why my 3G hasn't been working, never tied it back to this load screen. I rolled back to a previous backup and 3G came on instantly and a full day's worth of emails and gtalk messages streamed in.
Curious to know if anyone else encountered the same?
I'm running Miui btw.
wow nice combo looks smoothe and simple and just what i was looking for.

i had this problem too but not with the boot animation. i had to install king kernel to get 3g working on virtuious rom in order to fix it.
any chance of making a shutdown.zip?
causing 3g to not work.
Not sure if it was the splash or boot animation, but 3g would not work after installing these on Virtuous 3.01 with the Adrynalyne Custom Kernel v2.
Flashed this and have no problems with 3g on virtuous. Thanks for it!

Here are some custom easy boot animations.

First things first. Make a backup.
Now, here are a few of my boot animations made as a simple update.zip. You NEED to be rooted, and just apply these in bootstrap recovery as a .zip and they *should* work.
****EDIT*** I updated all the mega uploads on the first page.. If there is no link, its because i lost the file when i erased off megaupload, and I NEED somebody to email me the files of whoever had
the Rick Roll
Star Wars
Blue lightning
Bed Intruder.
If you have those files, please PM me.

This is a update.zip. Just apply with bootstrapper or equivalent.
(NO working animation)

Navigate to /data/local/ in root explorer. If there is a boot animation in there, rename or erase it

Is anybody having problems were the boot animation image gets stuck over the lock screen. The phone will still function normally but the first lock screen looks like the last image in the boot animation. Im using a different animation then these with rubix 1.0 thought I could start here for help. Thank you.

Yes, that started a little after the 2.2 update for me though. It did become more prevalent with my new animations, but after a full 2.2SBF (which i performed to clean out my phone, and start anew) that just came out, on the first boot, the original animation stayed on the screen.
This one was a small request, this takes the rotten apple I found and mixes it to the Blue Lightning Droid X eye. Intalls as a update.zip through bootstrap.

I've been trying to apply the Star Wars animation but I can't figure it out. If someone could post detailed instructions on how to apply it that would be awesome.

How do I get the original splash screen back?

Hi I have my evo and no more Sprint service so I'm selling my evo. It's rooted and I have a custom splash screen but I was wondering how I could get the original black on white evo splash back?

If he left the splash in there you can try flashing Sprint Lover's ROM. It's in PC36IMG.zip format so it flashes through bootloader and if the original splash is in there, it will flash that too.

[Q] Splash screen help??

Ok devs or whoever....
I am looking for some info and apparently i couldnt find any.. (this where u make me look like an @ss and send me a link or not)
I was able to flash a splash screen (very first screen u see when booting up) on both my G1 and M3GS but havent on my G2 or G2x.. Whats in entail to do so the the G2X... To change the first screen...(aka trinity when u flash morfics kernel)
I read somewhere that the boot.img needs to be split to do so... ??? ... Any info would be nice...... Subtle hints to the right whereabouts for this info would be nice to....
Use root explorer and go into system> media. In that file you'll see bootanimation.zip. You can change that out with another .zip of your choosing and rename it bootanimation.zip. This was how it was done with the Vibrant and I would think it would be the same with the G2X.
Ok Charlie ill check it out... thought that was just the boot animation though without splash screen. Mmk though

This is worth the $1 or whatever it is in sooooo many ways. Look at the related apps too (boot installer)... dude... you have no idea the simplicity of this and how clean each install was (I have tried probably 20+ of the boots and was able to customize by ripping one of the zip packets off the SD.... it shows the split too in the zip file.

...oohhhh... I missed that clarification. Ok so you want to change the "LG" splash just before the bootani starts... let me look, I gotta get back to you though... I came across that a while back and the instructions that the dev dropped with it didn't work but I tweaked it and got it. I gotta dig..
Yay the lg screen before bootanimation....
From what I read its un boot.img and that needs to be unpacked which would meen that every new rom flashed would have to b edited I assume

Yeah I can see it when I dig with root explorer and then throw the .rle in my drop box. I looked for that installer and was hitting blanks but I will find it today and also tweak that graphics archive. GIve me a few to diddle.
I also have a ViewSonic GTablet, which is also a Tegra 2 device. See this procedure:
http://www.slatedroid.com/topic/162...logos-replace-viewsonic-logo-g-tabletzpad-t2/
Basically you use nvflash to put a bitmap file on a specific partition.
THE ABOVE PROCEDURE WILL NOT WORK ON YOUR G2X, but it's a starting point to figure out how to do it on the G2x.
Hey IB you make any progress?

There are actually 3 things which has a default white back, and could (should?) be black..
The first is the splash (static) screen, which is actually on a different partition than the system/data etc.
The 2nd is boot-animation which appears after the splash when the phone is booted
The 3rd is down-animation, appearing when the phone goes to a reboot/shutdown.
Please find the 3 attached files for each - keep in mind that the splash is a flashable zip which needs to be flashed via 4Ext,
The bootanimation and downanimation zips should replace existing files on your rom - different roms have these in different locations, but AFAIK always somewhere in /system - root is needed.
Nandroid is your friend - always create a backup first!
Thanks for the splash. I'm happy the white one is gone. Do you know where there is any more? I like this one a lot though. I just wanted to see what else there is.

Hey, this is really great. However I'm a bit of a noob and just flashed a new ROM and now looking to flash this splash screen. I flashed the zip file, but unaware what to do with the other 2 zip files. I found a 'bootanimation' file within \system\bin but no downanimation file. Also I know these zip files contain many images not just a single file type. I'd really appreciate if you could advise on this. Is this splashscreen also silent? As after the flash I have no noise, but still the annoying white display
---------- Post added at 04:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:16 PM ----------
Ok so I got the splash screen working. It had to be stored in system/customize/resource. I still however have no sound on start up. Also, initially turning on the phone still gives me the white with green HTC without quietly briliant before then giving the black boot splash screen... Confusing :S

in order to change the splash screen you have to be on S-OFF.are you on S-OFF?
also when you put the new bootanimation.zip in system/customize/resource did you change the permissions?

Hey thanks for the reply. I'm not S-OFF but I use 4EXT with SmartFlash enabled to overcome this. I was able now to get the black splash screen working, however prior to this bootanimation I still have a white background with green HTC. I think it's like a BIOS screen maybe? How can I get this changed also?

ok, I've not tried this yet as I feel you misunderstand my issue... I have my new black HTC splash screen. But before that comes up I have another image, the original white one. I think this might be called the 'boot splash'. I have a found a page which does the change for the HTC One S, I think I need something similar for the HTC Sensation. AS the very first line of this page highlights that boot splash and boot animation are two seperate things:

Edit: Ok, I'm being a complete donut! The flashable splash screen zip is what replaces that static screen right 'boot splash' as I referred? Even if I didn't flash this and just replaced the bootanimation and the downanimation, I'd get what I have now?! But why can I not do this with SmartFlash Enabled on 4EXT, as I thought this acted as a temporary S-OFF? It's just when I flashed the zip, it said it was successful and also I now have no boot sound when starting the device, do you know why that is?

the original white one you are saying is the splach screen
the second one(new black HTC)is the bootanimation
the bootanimation you can change it also even without flashing anything at all

Cool man thanks. Ok so I just looked into doing S-OFF, and I see I'd have to install Ubuntu onto a virtual machine and it also mentioned that you should ONLY perform S-OFF with a stock ROM, is this true? As I have upgraded to Inspiration 1.0.1 ICS with Sense 5 MOD and this seems now then to be quite a bit of hassle.

just request for the windows version tool
or request it also from ganeshp's guide
and yes install the stock rom
just backup inspiration rom through recovery
and after S-OFF restore it
note:backup everything from your sdcard to pc because during the wire trick it will erase everything in the sdcard
could someone explain why my boot sound has gone? the flash didnt work because i am s-on, but i lost my boot animation start up sound!
EDIT: Sorted it, for some reason in the folder system/customize/CID the file default.xml had:
<BootAnimation animation="/system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip"/>
when it should have been:
<BootAnimation audio="/system/customize/resource/android_audio.mp3" animation="/system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip"/>

I stumbled across people wanting to do it for the HTC Desire HD, also there is much stuff on people wanting to remove the 'annoying sound' as they referred to it as. I had this sound file missing, so I added it to the /system/customize/resource location, but still didn't work. That's when I found the default.xml file to have that line missing within /system/customize/CID. Added it and whala, now have the start up sound again
