hello peeps. i've recently come across something in my searching for an easy way to flash a splash screen. here is what i have found. thanks xhausx for (unknowingly) telling me how to get into ruu command mode. so, here it goes.
this is for people who cannot downgrade hboot to get extended commands, and just want an easy way to change their splash screen.
this is new news to me, but if it has been stated before, please tell me.
step 1: download any splash screen from the forums. it should be a .rgb565 file. rename it to splash1.img
step2: download the file i have linked. this is your lifeline. i will update the text as htc updates their protected bootloaders.
step3: place splash1.img and android-info.txt in a zip (both in the root). this zip must be made in a program such as 7zip (pc) or betterzip (mac). you can name it anything you want.
now to install
adb method:
first, boot your phone into fastboot. this can be done by typing in
adb reboot bootloader
your phone should now be in fastboot usb mode. next, type in the following command. be careful, it is CASE SENSITIVE!
fastboot oem rebootRUU
you should now see a black w/ silver text htc screen. just to clerify, the zip should still be on your computer. type the following.
fastboot flash zip /path/to/zip.zip
wait until it is done, then type
fastboot reboot
and you have your all new splash screen!
no adb method (noobs)
this method is much simpler, but a little more annoying. rename the zip you made to PC36IMG.zip (case sensitive) and place it on the root of your sdcard. then reboot into bootloader by powering off phone, and then holding power button and vol down at the same time. it should ask you if you want to update. select yes (vol up). once it is done, select reboot (also vol up).
both of these methods have been tested by me multiple times.
if you have any problems, post, pm, or email me.
happy flashing!

Just because it has views and no posts doesn't mean its bad. It could not pertain to the user or they don't need it, or have nothing of "importance" to say. The info is still getting across, just think of it as a courtesy to not spam up your thread.
Edit: Its a good method, by the way, though I use another method because I used unrevoked, but still clear.
my bad didnt mean to edit this one. forgot what it said either way.
Like the other person said. Great job and very useful info. I might be using this method shortley if I convince my buddy to root his evo. He has the latest ota.
wow, thanks for the thanks. i'll delete the slightly annoyed want attention comments.
Thanks for the info!
Hey dk, I finally got my splash to change. Turns out the rgb565 I made was the problem. I grabbed a different one and your method worked perfectly! I'm going to try to make another splash to get a better picture. Thanks for the help!
Can't think of a witty tag line. . .swyped from my Warm Evo.
no problem. ya I thought the file you sent me was the problem. Maybe send it to somebody more advanced who can move it for you?
Can I use these methods if I am rooted with UnrEVOked3?
Yep it can be used no matter what root method.

The method worked great and I was going through a similar method by another user and the android-info.txt was throwing up Model ID errors in the boot loader.
Yours however worked in a pinch!!
Thanks, and have a six pack of cola on me.

Was wondering if anybody could make this into a flashable zip?
It's already sized 480x800, I just don't know how to make it flashable. xD
Thx in advance!
give me a minute
sweet, appreciate it!
here you go
remove(xxxx) place on sdcard, boot in to bootloader, let it do its thing press volume up for yes and then again for reboot and enjoy
DAMMIT DASED!! you beat me to this one. :| I suppose it's payback for me posting the flashable original splash screen before you could though...
appreciate it! if you wouldn't mind, how do you do it, so I can learn, and use it for future reference?

I've used the recovery method vs the bootloader. In your opinion, is it more convenient to flash the splash image through bootloader vs recovery? Preferably, I use recovery because I can easily organize my Splash1.zip files in their own folders. Also, when I learned about this, I thought I read that the bootloader process only worked for older hboots. Can you comment on that? Thank you.

Never flashed a splash screen in recovery I have always flashed them from bootloader so I couldn't tell you which is better and flashing through bootloader can be done on the EVO 3d as well so i would have to guess that no matter what hboot you have you can do it that way

I'll give this a shot. If it works out for me, I'll hit the Thanks.
Interesting.
Alright, so we all know it's confusing to differentiate the One XL from the One X, especially since Rogers and AT&T insist on calling it the One X.
IF YOU HAVE A "ONE X" FROM ROGERS/AT&T, YOU HAVE THE ONE XL. DON'T EVEN BOTHER VISITING THE ONE X FORUMS.
Now, you've gone and downloaded CWM from the One X forums and flashed it to your One XL, and you're semi-bricked. Let's get you out of that pickle. Please note that I have not done any of this to my own One XL, as there's no ROMs or custom recovery images or kernels for our phone yet. However, just this morning I performed a similar operation on my Jetstream, and the steps will be identical. I take no responsibility for any problems you experience.
First, you'll need to download the leaked RUU that can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1550930
EDIT: designgears has offered a newer recovery image. I'm not sure what advantages it would bring, but at least there's a second option: http://www.gigashare.in/53885
Please note that this is marked as the AT&T RUU, so there's no guarantee this will work for Rogers. However, your recovery mode is screwed anyway, so in my opinion, it couldn't hurt to try.
Once you've downloaded the RUU, run it. You don't need to install the RUU itself, we just have to have the application running. Once running, it'll create a "rom.zip" file in a temp folder somewhere in your user profile. While the RUU is open, just search for "rom.zip" and you should find it. Open this file and extract "recovery_signed.img" to your computer, into the same folder as your "fastboot" application. Once you've done this, close the zip file and exit the RUU.
Now, boot your device into fastboot mode
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Once in bootloader mode, you may need to select "fastboot" from the menu.
Now that you're in fastboot mode, you can flash the recovery we extracted from the RUU:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery_signed.img
Your screen will go through a couple brief steps, something like "sending recovery_signed.img" then "writing recovery_signed.img" and then "OK."
Try to boot into recovery now, and you should see the standard HTC recovery mode!
I really hope this helps everyone out. I'll iterate again that I have no tried this with my One XL, so I have no actual proof that this will work. But, if you've already flashed the wrong recovery image, you should be somewhat familiar with these steps already.
EDIT: Please post your success with this method. As I haven't tested, I'd like to know if everything's kosher, and I can change the instructions accordingly if something's wrong.
Hey, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, went to bed.
Here is just the recovery image for a newer, unreleased leak.

It's AT&T recovery.
Flashed but still having trouble. Got into recovery but can't boot.
Going to see if re-locking the bootloader may help. Only thing different I've done is that I ran that flash_boot.zip thing that Leedroid had on his page. It just seems to push a boot.img file and clear the fastboot cache.
Does anyone have that particular boot.img file? Pretty please?
For myself I will leave it for now and wait until an official rogers RUU or custom recovery to make sure I don't break it again

The rom.zip file from the AT&T ruu should have the boot.img file in it. you can flash it with
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
However, the boot partition is a WEE bit more critical to the phone's function than the recovery partition. Dunno if I'd be flashing it myself, at least not to a Rogers phone.

Thanks, man. Someone said they flashed the entire RUU to their Rogers phone so I don't think it could be too harmful.
I only have my Ubuntu machine and Wine is being fussy and not extracting the rom.zip archive properly. I'll see if something gets released soon. I rarely see Rogers RUU so hopefully I'm not waiting too long. Reactivated my SIM for my Galaxy Nexus but still sad lol
I feel your pain!

I've been in the same boat brother, minus flashing the boot.img file. Did you end up resolving/unbricking your XL? If not, I can extract the boot.img from my Rogers phone if that would help.
Btw, I haven't been on the forums in a couple of days, but I caught wind of your predicament and I'm surprised at the trouble you've had recently asking for help in this matter. Some people are ridiculous!
Truth is, we have this pretty new device that we want to take advantage of! We got excited, and f'd up. Anyhow, let me know if I can help.

Ok, I'm in the middle of downloading the evita leaked files. I can't extract it from my phone since I need root... unless you know a way other than adb shell? Either way, I don't think you can access it without root. I've tried a few ways with no luck.
I see you can't access the evita files so the best I can do for you is extract it from there for you. Download is slow as hell, so bear with me!

Krepler, Can you tell me how did you solve your recovery? I am in your sisutation as well, flash the wrong recovery and once I boot to recovery and it will occur the boot loop, however I am still able to use the One X (Semi-bricked). Did you flash the stock recovery from Rogers or the one that you just posted from AT&T?

One does not interfere with the other. Recovery is pretty much its own operating system, completely segregated from the rest of the phone. It can neither hinder nor enhance the booting of your phone in normal mode. You could theoretically flash a random sequence of ones and zeros to the recovery partition, and the phone would continue to boot just fine. Until you try and go into recovery mode that is. Flashing the recovery_signed.img as per my instructions is safe in regards to the phone's normal operation. I can't promise that it's a working recovery, however, as I've not tried it myself.
Awesome! Just booted up, my man. A thousand fellatios to you!! Please message me your Paypal address so I can buy you a beer or two.
Haven't tried the Cingular ones but the AT&T ones worked just fine. I'm betting it'll be damn near identical, save probably a few radio adjustments or very minor adjustments.
Booted to the main screen so I should be able to set things up. But I'll chime in and report if there are any major issues. Thanks again!!
Hey I am happy your phone boot up man!!
I am still having trouble with the recovery. I try flash the att& the cingular recovery. good thing is no bootloop I see an image showing black phone and a green circle. then I end up with image of a phone with red triangle with a "!" inside. and then the phone reboots.
am I doing something wrong?
Thanks

Have you tried running "fastboot erase cache"?
What other steps have you done as well? The killer for me was the boot.img file that Leedroid created as part of his ROM installation. The AT&T recovery is what I had used. For a moment I thought I might need to try flashing the system.img file like redwreck had to, but I didn't need to.
Perhaps someone could upload that as well, please? If you need to flash that, it's "fastboot flash system system.img" and it'll flash that too. I always do "fastboot reboot" after as well.
I trust that these should work. Hopefully there'll be a full Rogers RUU so we can flash that just to be on the safe side. Best of luck! I'll keep an eye on this thread as well.
Since I posted earlier I've been setting things up and it's working like a damn charm. Tried exhausting every weird and quirky feature I thought might screw up, but I can't find anything that's not working.

I just downloaded it from briefmobile to check, there are definitely 7 files in that zip. Download it again, put it in a new folder on your desktop, and extract it right into that folder. There will be 7 files.
well, I figured it out.
I had to show hidden files and folders and poof... the rest of the files showed up.

If you aren't familiar with Hex editing, etc, I would never recommend this. The one click works, he should use that and not have to worry about bricking.

Ok... so, I'll admit it, I messed up my One X. Was trying to put CM10 on it, got stuck on the blue, circular boot screen. Tried several fixes from the forums, but nothing worked. One attempted fix even ended up writing over TWRP. Now all I can get is HTC boot screen (complete with red wording beneath) and occasionally the CM10 screen. The fastboot screen says "tampered" and "unlocked".
Here's my situation. AT&T is sending another phone. I have to send this one back to them, and I just want to make sure that they can't figure out I was trying to install a third-party ROM. Is there a way to completely wipe the device altogether so that I just won't even try to boot?
If not, I'll just take my chances that they don't know what to look for besides water/physical damage and won't charge me full price for the replacement.
Any help is appreciated.
Your device is in a completely fixable state but ok...if u want to make it so your device doesn't turn on at all flash a Rom called ice cold jelly ...if youother wise the best you can do is have it say relocked and they would know you unlocked the bootloader...
don't flash ICJ, just relock bootloader and ruu.
if you have no physical damage why are you getting a replacement phone?
Did you flash boot.img?
And how about you not ask how to defraud att because you don't know how to flash and fix a botched flash.

Brother, if you can tell me how to fix this thing, I am all ears. I don't want to replace it, but after trying so many different ways to fix it from the forums I just kind of gave up.
If you have any advice, I'd love to hear it!
Thanks for the reply.

All you had to do is fastboot the boot.img thats inside the zip bro.. Are you familiar with fastboot at all? If not we can walk you through it!

I did flash boot.img. It just never moved past the CM10 starting animation. And honestly, not super familiar with fastboot three days ago... fairly familiar at this point. But nothing seems to get this thing to work. Please tell me what to do!
(BTW - I only called warranty at the advice of an AT&T employee in the store. I'd love to just fix my phone)
Twrp 2.3.1.0, wipe everything, flash boot.img in fastboot, and flash cm10 and gapps in twrp.
How do I get TWRP back on it?

Ok, great. I've downloaded the TWRP recovery image and the Goo Manager APK... now how do I use Goo Manager on a device that won't boot up?
You can't BC its an app.. Download tarp off the official site, a quick Google search brings it up first shot... Once downloaded, drop the recovery img into your adb and fastboot folder.. Enter fastboot USB on your phone. Now right click on your adb/fastboot folder and choose "open command prompt here"
Once cmd is running, type fastboot flash recovery <---- type in the name of the twrp img you dropped in

Exactly right! If you screw up your phone, take responsibility for it! Don't make somebody else pay for your failure.
Do you even read before you flash rom's? clear red letters. This could brick your phone or even worst if you dont know what you're doing
Research very much before doing anything, that's how I started

Completely agreed. The notion astounds me (and disappoints me also) that the OP was going to send the phone in for a warranty replacement simply because they didn't do the proper research and learning before modding the phone. And when the condition was completely and easily reversible. If the screen comes on with this phone, it can be recovered.
Hey guys, waiting for my phone to mail in...meanwhile I made some splash screens. Enjoy!
Version 1
white
black
Version 2
white
black
I used this splash screen maker to make the splash screens with the correct android-info.txt, so hopefully these should work. However, in case they don't, I take no responsibility if you guys brick your phones applying this through the bootloader.
Also, I figure I should mention, there is no gray border around the actual splash screens
instructions, as per @dgtiii
Code:
1. Place splash zip in your fastboot folder, rename splash.zip.
2. Reboot to bootloader, connect your phone to pc, should go to Fastboot USB mode
3. Fastboot oem rebootRUU
4. Fastboot flash zip splash.zip
5. Fastboot reboot-bootloader
6. Unplug your phone, select reboot in bootloader, see your awesome new splash screen!

Sweet boot screens...:good:
Splash screens or bootanimations ? Afaik splash screens can only be edited with s-off. If they are boot animations i suggest to edit the title to rule out confusion
Nice screens anyway

These are splash screens. I saw a few other threads with splash screens though? Confused...if I make them flashable through recovery will they work?

Well try but i really think you need s-off to write the partition where the splash screen is located. I also read in the OP of the splash screen creator that s-off is mandatory.
Edit :
But don't worry if they don't work now, i think that s-off will be available for the M8 so your work is not for nothing !
Looks awesome but why the "Beats Audio" at the bottom?
Nice work, especially love version 2

oh snap....wow lol. ok I'll fix that first splash screen then, and possibly even the second, since the 6 is obviously based on the beats logo

Awesome thanks for the PSD!
ok I fixed the first version, and once I find a copy of Cambridge Round Light Expended font somewhere, I'll make some boomsound splashes
Hey these are some sweat splash screens. I like the first one with HTC sense 6, but I cant download it. Every time I try it says its invalided. Hope that gets fixed one day and I like the idea with having powered by Boomsound as a footnote like I read somewhere here earlier. I like the art, keep it up!
I am going to ask a dumb question, but how do I flash these? Ssojyeti2, did you test these on the device? I just can't get them to work, and I'd like to, you did an excellent job on these mate!

When is it invalid? Is the download link broken or does it not flash properly?

Umm well I haven't tested these out yet either but they should be flashed through the bootloader, which means s-off is required

I am s-off. So RUU mode, then fastboot flash zip splash.zip, right?

That wasn't what I was thinking, but it may work. I'd hold on flashing for now till I can test it myself, unless you feel adventurous
