i'm using the latest qtek rom but am unable to reomove the second splash screen that shows the windows mobile. managed to changed the first one containin the qtek logo though using buzz's programme.
is there any way to get rid of the windows mobile splash?
Sure, no problem !
Just find any picture (jpg, bmp,gif).
Resize it to 480/640
Convert it with a graphics program (such as irfanview) to a .png file.
Rename this file to welcomehead.192
Copy that file to your /windows directory on the ppc
Softreset.
Voilà. You're done.
Cheers
hrb
actually, the picture needs to be 640x640 because it will be used both in Portrait and Landscape mode.
do you guys have the original welcomehead.192? i sorta deleted it without making a backup. would appreciate any help on this.
you cannot delete it, it is in ROM. As soon as you delete your own creation, the original file will magically reappear.
oh i see. thanks a lot for the input. managed to get it back to mess with it some more
Can I rip the original Qtek splash, so I can take it as welcomehead.192?

How to modify boot image in htc touch ?
Which boot image? There are more than one. For the last one, you can change the picture in Windows called welcomehead.96, but for the others, you need to make an nbh file with only the splash screens you want in it.

I've actually tried the Artemis program a couple of times, but couple never get the 1st screen to work. Worked out for you?
I've been trying to change the splash screen on my jade and have managed to make an nbh file and flash it with the customRUU.
the splash screen has changed but seems to 'cut off' near the bottom where the boot info comes up and shows some of the old splash screen under the info.
Its really wierd I'm sure my image is the right size (I've used several stock ones from this forum)
I'd really like to know where I'm going wrong.
Cheers
Anyone?
the annoying orange
Hi Welshbloke70
I too would like to change (the annoying orange) splash screen on my Jade.
I presume you are talking about the very first splash that appears on start-up?
I’ve successfully done this on a herm200 but you know how things can be different!
Can you explain what steps you took and I’ll try the same on mine to see if we get the same result?
Cheers

Well I flashed the HTC stock ROM and thats changed it.
The stock ROM works well for me so I'm pretty happy, and I guess that the splash screen is changed for good.
Orange splash
Hi Welshbloke
Can you tell me if the stock ROM is available here? If so can you provide the link or version?
Cheers
Hello,
all you need is a GIF file 240 x 320 Pixels in size.
Place the file in \windows folder.
You might need to use the Total commander to place this file as otherwise you'll get write protection error.
Soft reset after replacing the file.
If you're talking about the HTC screen splash ...
on my set it's this file - animated.gif (240 x 320 pix, 46.1 kb) in \windows.
how do i enable and chamge the animated.gif? and disable the splashscreen?

AFAIK... Get any gif file (animated or not) of your choice, edit/resize it to be of the same pix size with animated.gif (240 x 320), save it as "animated.gif", dump it into \windows. Softreset. Rem to keep the default file, just in case.

Only to tell: I do not have the file "animated.gif" on my phone.
But I do not want to change my splash-screen, so it does not matter for me.

Trying to understand better ..
After you dump the new file and softreset, when you boot up, what happened ?
Does the splash screen still show the default animated gif ? or No animation at all ?

Hi guys.i have made 2 splash screens which are ported from windows 7.but i added some notes with photoshop.2 sound files (xp startup and shutting down) are available in a zip file.hope to enjoy it
you can rename the picture name to welcomehead.png and put it in windows folder or you can install advanced configuration tool v3.3.use this app to change the the startup splashscreen,startup .WAV file and shutdown .WAV file (recommended)...
NOTE: Download "480.800 pictures.zip" if u wanna have the real 480.800 resolution...

And these are 2 wallpapers u can use as your wallpaper (included in the attachment of post1)
Where do you put the splash screens at....I am not sure where I would save them so that they show up when I launch
Actually these are pretty cool, thanks!
Think you could also work on black-themed Windows 7 splashes and wallpaper?
Much appreciated.
can someone make this into a cab please.
thanks
where r the files?
Nice work there, inspired me to change my wallpaper, so I came up with this:
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win.jpg
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win.png
drhadr.qsb.cz/stuff/black_win2.png
Turned out to be slim and elegant as a bg too
If anyone wants to add there any text/label, do it or tell me and I'll put it in there

after a while i found out how to replace it, let me know if u tried the same steps.
renamed the png file to welcomehead.192.png and made another copy of it and named it welcomehead.png
in resco i set some options to show hidden files, then i just moved both of them inside.
i think one of them was unnecessary but... it worked so.. lol
so i did a bit more research, u just need the welcomehead.png
the one with 192 is for a carrier splash.
if u want to use the jpg (i'm guessing it's faster?? i don't really notice much difference), u can put it in there aswell and go into registry.. i think HKLM/software/microsoft/splash and just change the value of the name
@rouzbehali
can plz upload the zip file again,its corrupted
and i noticed that the wallpapers are not 800*480
could u plz make a version with this size
thanx alot man
its very nice
zip files are fixed
sound files are uploaded again,thanks for your comments
ok.I will make more splash screens
OK windows mobile noob here with stock HD2...
How do I get rid of the stupid Tmobile "stick together" screen at startup and "Goodbye" at shut down? No one has explained that yet. I downloaded and installed the advanced configuration tool and every time I point it to the pics in the zip file on my sdcard and reboot...nothing changes...
I need step by step instructions here...

i got the splash screens to work but not the sounds.
easier way:
Just use advanced config to locate your files .
it is provided in the 1st post.

Is there any way to also get a shutdown screen? There is only a starting up file in the zip. Also, what's the best way to try to install the welcome/shutdown splash? Through the advanced config app or otherwise? And lastly, which splash screen does this replace, the orange windows mobile one, the T-Mobile one, or both? Any responses would be helpful.
the skin/theme you have is fantastic, with the clock and slide bar on the bottom. Could you please tell me where you got it or did you make it yourself?

Hey all,
Another question from me. I want to change the boot screen of my ROM. I have been able to change my splash screen. But now I want to do those two things here:
- I want to replace the orange "Windows" screen
- I want to remove the HTC Animation and sound
Thanks!

1)To remove animation, just disable the animation package (HTC animation)
2)To remove sound delete the HTC-QuietlyBrilliantBoot.wav file (in operator package folder) or replace it with a no sound file.
3)The images for the orange screen are inside the runcc package.Try to replace them with same size and resolution images.
Orange Windows Image is located in a couple different places...I guess you would have to search your kitchen to find exactly where it has put them,but in mine they are in:
SYS: Redist_dpi_192_resh_480_resv_800
OEM: OEMDrivers
EXT: RunCC_1_2_1_0
Search your kitchen for these names:
welcomehead.192
RunCC_default_bg_480_800
RunCC_default_bg_800_480
You may also want to change these items to match your replaced images
All runcc_progress-XX files located in runcc
All PB-X files located in oemdrivers

Thanks for helping and I tried it out, but now the boot screen displays very (don't know exactly how to say in English) "compressed" on the bottom of the screen :s This happens only in first boot. In second and later boots it just works

Maybe this happened because you did not do a task29 cleaning before.

Task29 makes a format in your phone and clean all the files from previous roms.
Otherwise these files are cleaned only if you hard reset your fresh rom.
Thats why I think that previous files were not all deleted and thats why after you hardreseted your rom the picture is fine.

Well I just tried it and for me works fine.
I attach my photos to compare with yours.
You must take care the run cc photos to save them as progressively compressed.I done this with irfan view which is a free program.
Welcomehead.192.png is the first part of the runcc process and can be a different photo as you see in my files.
Welcomehead.192.png and Runcc files can be 480x800 and not only 800x800.
How do you mean, save as progressively compressed? Can you please tell me how I should save the files. The save options are quite advanced for some extensions...
Thanks

In Irfan view you open the image you want and when you click, >File, >Save as and you select the jpeg option, then the possibility to save the jpeg photo as >save as progressive jpg, arises.
I dont know if this is really needed but the original run cc files are saved this way.
