Is there a way to get the 3G Icon to replace the ev?

for sprint hero?

booo. lame.

apparently its just a matter of changing a few .pngs in what we already have (no matter the build?) but im too scared to f*ck with it

ill try it lol i just need a guide or something

just replace them in the apk with the ones you want (same name), then build a install zip, sign it, and push via adb or install via RA

in alot of the roms I've used, there have been 3g variations in the files, just not in the right place or named correctly for CDMA. You can grab those if you want or create your own. Name them the same as the ones you want to replace. Open the apk with winzip or whatever app you use, find the files you want to replace, then drag the new ones into the apk.
If you get a prompt about encryption, choose other, then no encryption.
After that, build a folder structure just as if the app would be in the phone.
ex: system/framework/
- place the apk inside of the framework folder, and zip it.
- next you need to sign the zip, I'd use flipz's kitchen
- install via RA (place on sd card, reboot into recovery and install)

how would i open and edit the files?

with your favorite graphic editor, their png files.
beyond that, you might want to make a request in the thread where you got the ROM.
what ROM and addons are you using anyway?

here's a metamoprh zip that will change to 3g icons, and nothing else.

hey man thanks!!
but, back to the long way. i found the right file, (using regaw mod, comes with the 3g icon) what do i change it to?

thank you for the zip I booted into recovery and flashed it but i still have the EV?

it's not a zip you flash. Download metamorph from the market, and install it from there.
and mountain... I just used the default 3g icons in framework-res.apk and placed them into com.htc.resources.apk with the metamorph

thankx guys I got it working

no problem

I installed MetaMorph, but at the beginning it says start basic checks to see if your phone can run, and it just hangs there and says its not responding, asks to wait or FC, please help

Simple XDA splash, black

7/11: I have posted new versions of each. The white is toned down a bit to match the HTC EVO emblem, and not be overwhelming. And both fonts have been smoothed so it looks much better.
I also changed the file in each zip to contain the correct name so those of you having problems should be able to run the command without changing filenames.
Mirrors also added!
Hey guys, I made this to represent xda when I boot
Thought I would share
The files attached can be flashed through bootloader.
Boot your phone into fastboot (hold vol up key while powering phone on, select fastboot)
Now open command. To verify your computer is recognizing your phone, type
Code:
fastboot devices
This should list your device. After that, you want to unzip the file you downloaded and place it in your android sdk tools folder.
Now, back in command, change to your tools directory and enter
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splash.raw565
Remember to back up anything you don't wanna lose, and nandroid. Not responsible for anything that happens if you don't
That said I have flashed it and it works.. enjoy

Are you booted in fastboot? Did you put the raw file into your sdk folder?
If not maybe it needs the original raw file in there too.. I didn't think it should tho. If you wanna try I have attached it. You could try dropping that in tools too and running the same command. Even though thats not the file its looking for.. so it leads me to believe one of previous should fix it

It looks awesome. I think I will leave that one on there for a while. Well at least a couple of days
I flashed mine a little differently though. I changed the name of the file to evosplash1.rgb565 and ran
fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565

It worked great. Im not sure if your command accomplishes the same thing though (noobness talking)
Edit - Forgot to say thanks!

Love it man! The second I saw it, I HAD to flash it!
Thank You

says cannot load the file..not sure what i'm doing, my sdk tools is on my desktop do i need to cd to it or what.
EDIT: nevermind, sometimes i'm so stupid

Looks great
I have a desaturated theme going on so the orangish color won't work. Might use it in the future... unless you want to make a black/white version <3

I think I figured out your problem. I forgot I changed the names of these files before zipping them so you will need to change them to splash and then run the command. I've added new versions anyway with the correct file names so you can try those too.

Deleting Boot Screen

I've downloaded a bootscreen and wanted to know how to manually delete it.

Go to system/media. Then delete the bootanimation.zip file there.

Within the phone I have removed media/boot.img however there is no bootanimation and the bootscreen is still there.

There will be a something caleed *.qmg file. I don't remember exactly the name. Which is the dwfault bootanimation file I guess.

Nothing similar to this was found.

Within the system/media I did find it, was first looking in the wrong spot. However it doesn't let me delete the file or rename it. How do I remove it?

You will need root to delete it.
First remount /system to a writeable state and then delete the file or rename it.
Some advertising:
You can use my app to do that:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1013063
Start the app, go settings check "Remount /system", restart my app, browse to /system and delete or rename the file.

You will have to use an app or adb. If you don't know how to change boot animations properly, then you should probably stick with an app - no offense. If you're using Root Explorer, select the "mount r/w" button at the top. When you're finished, mount r/o the same way. Otherwise, the app mentioned in the post above mine will work. Do you have a different boot animation to replace it with? If you want the boot animation that came with the rom, just reflash the rom over itself. Just wipe cache and dalvik (don't wipe data) and you'll be good to go.

I'm fine with the change but I want to delete this (which appears before the animation screen):

If you mean the first non animated picture you see once your phone starts, thats your splashscreen! The only way to get rid of this or swap it is to root your phone, & enable a Engineered Hboot & also get s-off otherwise you cannot get rid of it! Then you can use a program via your computer called Android Flasher to flash the splashscreen to your phone (just google it) thats what i use with my desire hd!
Hope this helps

note: I use Amon_RA Recovery v2.3 so these instructions were written using that.
Install via FASTBOOT
1. start your phone up in Fastboot mode.
2. push files to phone: fastboot flash splash1 evosplash1.rgb565
3. reboot phone: fastboot reboot
or
Install via PC36IMG.zip
1. Place the desired PC36IMG.zip file onto the root of your SD card.
2. Reboot phone into bootloader (turn off, volume down + power).
3. The phone should recognize the zip and ask if you want to update. Select yes.
The zip will install and you're new splash screen should be there next time the phone reboots.
Here are 3 more Splash Screens that were added on 6/21

I found some graphics on an old backup that contained some .psd file to some flyers that I used to make for a Slayer Tribute band that I played in.
WARNING: the first three images are pretty SLAYTANIC : )
The last show that I played with the band was on june 6, 2006 ..... (6/6/6)
the .rar file is attached to the original post (SplashScreens_0625.rar)

Very impressive my friend, Loving those NSFW kinda New ones lol. Keep pumping them out

OK, NOW THAT I have a custom boot screen, how do I get rid of it and go back to stock?

[BOOT ANIMATION]Android BIOS boot animation for Revolution HD Sensation Edition

Forgive me if something similar was already posted, but I did not see a Sensation specific posting of this animation.
I went through and modified the frames to allow for more accuracy in terms of specs for our devices.
Based on gimj01's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=947688, which in turn is based on frysee's http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=648555.
Just thought I might share my edits with everyone. If gimj01 and frysee do not want me to have this posted let me know and I will remove it.

Very nice! Missed already

BTW: if somebody gets standard bootanimation after replacing try following:
- flash via adb
- power down the sensation
- remove battery and place it in again
- start your phone!

hehe looking good bro

Here are instructions I copied from another boot animation thread (saved me from typing them!!! Lol!)....
Instructions to install:
[NOTE YOU MUST HAVE YOUR DEVICE S-OFF BEFORE ATTEMPTING THIS]
1.Back-up stock boot animation (if you want to) which is found in /system/customize/resource using root explorer or ES file explorer
2.Delete the stock boot animation after backing up and replace it with the bootanimation.zip included in this post in the same directory as before
Then reboot!
Simples!
@AndroTMO
Nice animation by the way, any chance of a Splash screen to match? Perhaps just the Energy Star logo + sensation details (ie the 1st frame of the animantion) with the "HTC quietly brilliant" logo beneath?

awesome bootscreen! got anything for us on the downscreen along similar lines?

I as of yet have not learned where the downscreen is in relation to the rest of the OS.

This method works perfectly except for one difference for T-mobile users- TMOUS people running the stock ROM need to replace the TMOUS_bootanimation.zip instead of the bootanimation.zip.

FYI- I found the down animations in the same folder as the boot animations.

Thanks for the #11 post.
Now that my device has S-OFF I would like this boot loader.
I see the path you mentioned using root explorer, but not sure how to get the downloaded files from my computer to the directory on the HTC Sensation.
Any advice please?
T.I.A.

All you have to do is connect your phone via USB & drag the file to your SD card. Then, use Root Explorer(market app) to copy them to the proper directory & rename them. Make sure you copy the original animations to somewhere safe on your SD card just in case you need to restore them for any reason.

kabuk1 you rock!
Your instructions are crystal clear and very easy to understand.

Happen to remember the name of the .zip that is needed? I no longer have a down anim due to my ROM.

Is it called downanimation.zip

I like it. Unfortunately, it's the wrong resolution for sensation. 480x800 instead of 540x960 so it looks interpolated and blurry ;/
Edit: here's a modded 540x960 version I just whipped up.

I used this one and it looks great, thanks! Just for fun I also took the first image from the boot sequence and flashed that as my splash screen to replace the white screen with HTC on it prior to the boot animation.
Now when I turn on my phone, the splash screen comes up as the Energy Star image with some text, then once it goes to the boot animation it just looks like its still booting up. Kinda cool I think.
Thanks again!
