Here is how you change your TomTom Navigator splash screen:

}
- Start ResHacker and open your "TomTom Navigator.exe"
- Expand the tree view on the left side and browse to Bitmap > 120 > 1033.
(Now you see the splash screen).
- Select the 1033 and go to Action > Save Bitmap.
- Once saved, manipulate the file keeping the format, aspect ratio and the size (528x800 for wvga).
- Go back to ResHacker and while the 1033 is selected, go to Action > Replace Bitmap.
- Follow the Replace Bitmap instructions then save your file.
- Copy your new "TomTom Navigator.exe" file back to your PocketPC.
- Start TomTom

Nice, Helder
Thanks

Hi
I have followed the instructions and cannot seem to get it to work.
Open file as instructed, replaced .bmp with one of same dimensions and then saved and copied back to device.
Result: original splash screen.
Any advice appreciated!

Have you tried with the image included in the zip?

nice...works perfectly

[tutorial] How to change s-pen hover icon

Good morning ladies and gentlemen after a long month of exams i back with an awesome tutorial [how to change Hover icon]
first of all i will assume that you know how to recompile and decompile - if not look for tutorial "how to use apk kitchen "
note : before anything take a backup you know stuff happens
1- you will need to extract framework-res.apk from (System/framework) from your own Rom
2- do some decompile magic
3- then navigate to (res/ drawable-xhdpi) in output file "will be various depend on the kitchen you use "
4 copy these files "which in picture " to another empty file to work freely

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
5- now we are talking :
every file have an icon which appears in different places eg. (tw_pointer_spot_hovering_spen_cursor_dark.png appears when you hovering pen on a text
and so on
- tw_pointer_scroll_hovering_spen_pointer01_dark.png is for scrolling up with the pen
and here a picture to sum up the hovers :
6- use any image editor ( i prefer Photoshop )
7- open the icon that you like to change with PS
8- then edit or change it with one you like and save it with ".png" extension
9- say yes to replace the modified file with the new one
10- then put the file that you had changed to ( output file /res/ drawable-xhdpi )
11- finally recompile
12- push it to (System/framework) on your phone or ROM and change permission to rw-r-r
-- or -- use majdinji temple zip
and have fun

Smart cover background image

Smart cover has background image which can be changed at will, only you have to know where it is... and be rooted... It takes me quite long time and many efforts to find it out... So, I will share this knowledge with you.

In fact there are TWO images: one to show normally without any action and second to show when there is incoming call to take. Originally this is the same image in two places. It has resolution 561 x 1061
To change background image you need to:
- Prepare your own picture with given resolution and rename it as needed (details below)
- Go to /system/priv-app folder and find adequate .app file (details later) using e.g X-plore, Total Commander or Root Explorer
- Copy .app in edition to PC and open it with e.g 7zip.
- Navigate (inside opened .app ) to folder with original background image
- Copy your prepared picture into opened folder, agree to exchange files and close 7zip.
- In /system/priv-app folder rename original xxxx.app to xxxx.app.bak and copy there your prepared .app
- Set .app permissions to 644
- Reboot & enjoy your own background image in Cover window
Now details about files
1. Background image which is normally visible lies within /system/priv-app/Keyguard.apk in folder /res/drawable-sw420dp-400dpi-v13/cover_clock_background.jpg. Originally it is .JPG file
2. Background image for incoming call lies in /system/priv-app/InCallUI.apk in folder /res/drawable-sw480dp-400dpi-v13/cover_bg.png and originally it is .PNG file

Edit your bootanimation and start-up sound on your Nokia

Nokia (or HMD Global) has some kind of weird place to put their bootanimation in. Normally, the bootanimation stays at /system/media, but I took a look there and everything was empty. So I did "grep -r "bootanimation.zip" /" in Terminal Emulator and turned out they put the bootanimation in /system/CDA/600ID/Power-on-animation, which I also found out that they also put the start-up sound there at /system/CDA/600ID/Power-on-sound. So here I am writing a guide on how to edit your bootanimation and maybe, turn off that start-up sound that makes everyone turns their head at you every time you turn on your device.
STEP 1: Unlock your bootloader, root your device. If you want to mod things, DIY
STEP 2: Grab a file manager that supports root (ES File Manager, Solid File Manager, etc.)
STEP 3: Go to /system/CDA/600ID/Power-on-animation (there may be two folders inside the CDA folder, one of them contains the real bootanimation and one of them contains the shortcut only) (The 600ID folder may vary on your device)
STEP 4: Manually replace it with your own bootanimation (don't flash the bootanimations via TWRP because Nokia stores it in another place, flashing zip files won't work.)
Also in the 600ID folder, you can find a folder named Power-on-sound which contains the file "02_Welcome-Sound.waw". If you want to disable start-up sound, rename it or move it to another place in case something goes wrong.
Video for better explanation:
Good luck modding your Nokia.

I have no such folder.

The splash contains a customized fastboot screen and ofcourse the boot logo. Also, this boot-animation is completely based on Pixel's boot-animation. The way I customized this is by editing the images in Part 0 and Part 1 folder inside the Pixel's bootanimation.zip.
Here is the preview of the boot-animation:
These are the Splash files previews (boot logo + fastboot logo):
​
Download links:
• Download the flash-able zip of splash (which will change your boot logo and fastboot screen as above) here.
• Download the boot-animation zip file from here.
Steps involved:
• Reboot to recovery (OrangeFox recommended, you can use anyone you like).
• Mount system (to get access to system files through recovery's internal file manager).
• Flash google_mido_splash.zip file normally while making sure unmounting before flashing is unchecked!
• For boot-animation, copy the google_mido_bootanimation.zip to /system/media and rename it as bootanimation.zip
• This will change your bootanimation and splash images.
