Just upgraded an SX66 ( as a test bed for my XDA IIs ) to xplode WM 6, 6.00.00. Way to go XPLODE !
Am I the only one that gets four color bars ( Red, Green, Blue, and White ) when turning on the phone now ?
If someone else has, and replaced that startup bitmap with something else, could someone post how ?
I'd like to keep my O2 startup bitmap ( the bubble of air in the water ) when I go to upgrade my IIs to WM6 ( Thank you XPlode ! Sorry, can't be happier with how it's working. ).
So...
1. Where can I find out to how change the bitmap image that the phone displays when it boots up ? Is it a .BMP, .JPG ?
2. How to replace the bitmap image once I've upgraded to WM6 ?
Any pointers to previous posts, etc, would be greatly appreciated.
You cannot change 4 color bars image while booting. Using search helps.

All of us who have upgraded BA to WM6 get those 4 colored bars during initial bootup.
One more thing, Hard Reset procedure is different than that used on BA 2003SE. Follow WiKi.
Did follow Wiki
I did follow the Wiki....
What a bummer that the boot up image can't be replaced. I thought that that was a file that got uploaded to the phone during the upgrade procedure ( after all the O2 image shows up during the boot up sequence when the radio/os versions display ). Strange indeed.

figured it out, your bootloader needs to be upgraded to say Typhoon IU. mine didn't follow the second post from here to learn how to do it.

haven't figured out yet how to downgrade.
the 0109 bootloader does not work with the normal upgrade utility.
I am working on extending my typhoonnbfdecode.pl script to also generate sd card images.

can anyone cofirm this specific download works on a uk c500? And has anyone tried tomtom on it? Still a bit nervous of trashing my phone!
Thanks
if you read the 3 posts before your mainly the first i cant blame you for being spooked
it works on the typhoon type devices ( with the long horizontal navigator button ), not on the feeler ( with the small round joystick), or sonata ( with music player buttons )
on the non-typhoon devices, the joystick button behaves strangely, you cannot move left/right.

On the WM Team Blog they address the reaction to the nearly worthless battery icon replacing the clock. Good news is that ROMs using AKU2.2 and later will allow you to add the clock back in, bad news is that the current JasJar ROM (1.30.76) doesn't seem to have the 2.2 release of AKU.
Can people with other carrier's ROMs check to see if the registry edit they provide works with your ROM?
The egistry edit is to add a DWORD titled ShowTitleBarClock with the value of 1 in the HKEYLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Shell location.
Didn't work for me
Doesn't work in the latest dopod rom 1.30.111 either...
The message on the MS site is from yesterday, and the guy is speaking of a "further release", i think AKU 2.2 don't exist yet
btw: isn't working on my wizard too
AKU 2.2.1 exists...
this is the nessesery file, you need to replace the existing one with this one (windows directory)
and add
[HKEYLM/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Shell]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:1
this is only for AKU 2.0!
!!!Attention: Make a backup and read through this tropic!!!
Problems with Universal roms!!!!
Perhaps related to the certification. Plz someone with removed certification try this... and post the results.
RE
The shell32.exe file in my QTEK 9000 is located in ROM something which you cannot copy out.
Does a soft reset reverts back to original battery icon if I'll to replace with the attached shell32.exe file?
After the battery icon is replaced by the clock icon, can I add a date to it also using any known method to put a date on top of the clock?
I believe a hard reset will definitely reverts back to the original battery icon, right?
Thanks
only a hard reset reverts back to the original.
add a date: I think so... not tested, but it should work.
I have a special rom where it is possible to overwrite system files, but It could be difficult to replase shell32.exe on a normal rom and I cant make a cab, because I dont know how to sign that.
plz someone with the knowledge about that make a cab.
don't bother, because even if you replace the shell32.dll, it wont restart, displaying the keyboard and getting stuck there.
You will have to hard reset and restore from a backup to get back your device.
A word of warning - back up before trying this. It hosed my universal. It would not even finish booting, and I had to hard reset.
Surur
Ok, I realy sorry.
It works for me...
Himalaya (rom based on 2.00a)
On my ROM (Qtek latest) in \Shell\Taskbar there's a regkey LimitedClock set to 1. If I set that to 0, the clock will at least display everywhere except Today, both in landscape and portrait modes. With it set to 0 as per standard, the clock only shows up while in apps *and* landscape, apps/portrait it doesn't. As long as the Today screen time&date plugin is switched on, this means you've always got the clock. BTW, needs a softreset to activate, Taskbar settings apparently are only read on first startup.

I'm sure you realise this is a universal forum? You should edit your post to remove your file before somebody else zaps it's unit.
I dont think so, because the os is the same.
My rom is not realy Himalaya, it is a ported wizard os and only the drivers of Himalaya.
So the file should work on all WM5 devices, perhaps the problem is related to the removed certification on Him 2.0 rom's.
(This file is from an Atom rom not Himalaya)
But you are right, I edited the post.
Disablesecurity.cab, replace shell32.exe with new, softreset
Hangs at boot with the soft keyboard superimposed over the boot screen. Hard reset to fix.
Basically, avoid this for a while.
......or use Wisbar Advance 2 and you have your clock back on the Today screen....
Cheers

You can access that feature simply by going to the date/time settings and enabling "Display the clock on the title bar in all programs" on the |More| tab.
O2 xda Atom have AKU2.2.1 and it really works no more battery icon.

Hello,
It is my first post on this forum.
Yesterday, I unlocked my frensh SPVM3000 (Wizard) and tried to replace my "shell32.exe" by the "shell32.exe" downloadable on this post.
It was a BAD idea! My SPV starting crashed because it was for Universal smartphone. I used the button sequence to re-install the original software.
Have you an address where I can download the "shell32.exe" of the Wizard AKU 2.2 software?
Thanks for your help.

hi, i have managed to change the splash screen using buzz tools (t-mobile logo in my case) but how do u change or get rid of the other splash screen or what ever it it..in my case windows mobile logo ?? can i replace it or just have nothing.. i have read that it is welcomehead.192 which is in /windows but when i copy it to my PC i cannot see it anywhere. can anyone help with doing this ?? cheers
cudo
OK, i have sorted it out:
/windows/welcomehead.192.png - just make your own *.png file and replace the exisiting one. it must be 640x480 pix.
bye, and thanks for your help !
thanks for your finding. I will have a try
sorry i didnt find the post sooner CUDO, great of you to work this out, Keep up the good work
Hi, guys. I'm new for universal. I use O2 Exec and up Rom to Dopod 900. I like to use O2 splash screen but cannot find the pic of it.
Anyone can share the pic? Or where can I get it.
Thanks in advance.
hi there,
i'm looking forawrd to have the same original o2 splash screen on my dopod 900 too......any1 out there could guide us to do that?
regards
Hi,
how did you replace it? Active Sync can't replace it, he always tells me about an error that there would not be enough space...
Damn, would really like to have my own picture there....
MfG
MPW
@MPW: replace it by overwriting with another file with the same name!
You can even take a jpg with less quality and size and rename it to png file type, still works!
so all you need is a o2 wallpaper like on the start up.easy done i will see wot i can do.
My Prophet Stuck at bootscreen , with displayed
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.10.0001
GSM 02.07.20
OS 1.0.13.21
It happened after I tried to downgrade it.
PLEASE, tell me how to recover it ?
I had wizard before, and have some experience with backup/downgrade/upgrade/IMEI Change. Also I have backup of the phone, made by aWizard.
But this time i missed line that downgrade is NOT for G4 (2.xx.0001) ROMs. Is it possible to downgrade G4 (2.xx.0001) ROM ? Or is it possible to use iWizard w/o downgrading ?
Problem solved ! Please, stick this post up - I saw A LOT of people in this forum to ask how to resolve situation with "STUCK ON START-UP SCREEN" ... no one full answer. So ... solution :
1 step. Download one working for YOUR G3 or G4 version ROM. You can easly recognize the difference
G4 ROM on startup screen looks like
IPL 2.10.0001
SPL 2.13.0001
Look at last digit - if it's like 0001 - its G4 ROM. If it ends like 2.00.000, or just 2.00 - then its G3 hardware version.
So G4 (2.XX.0001) users can use any G4 ROM like this one ( tested by me ) -> ftp://xda:[email protected]/JAMin_WWE_213923_2139123_022021_ship.zip
G3 (2.XX) users can use this ROM -> ftp://xda:[email protected]_AKU23_023021_P12MB_PDAMobiz_v2307.exe This ROM is not tested by me, but I have read a lot of good responses about it.
2 step. First prepare the phone - full charge battery. After that, hold CAM + COMM buttons ( on the left side of the phone ) and reset it. You will be bringed to so sadly famous "three colors screen". Now connect your phone through USB and start Updating program that you have downloaded before. Sit back for about 15 minutes ( dont get nervous when it stucks on 80% ... it had to pass it after time). If everything goes smooth - after reset you must to have working phone again.
2A step. If you get error message ( like I did first time )
ERROR [294] : INVALID VENDER ID
You have to make few steps, a little more complicated then pressing NEXT buton couple of times.
First, download this cracked version of ROM Update Utility program. Can be found here -> ftp://[email protected]/Prophet/Tools/ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip , then
1. Download and install WinRAR ( http://www.rarlabs.com/ )
2. Click with right button on program that updates ROM ( like RUU_Prophet_G3_2151327_AKU23_023021_P12MB_PDAMobiz_v2307.exe ) and choose Extract to...
3. Replace in directory you just extract archive file ROMUpdateUtility.exe with the same file from the archive you have downloaded early (ftp://[email protected]/Prophet/Tools/ROMUpdateUtility-NoVendorID.zip )
4. Now, run ROMUpdateUtility and this time there will be no WRONG VENDER ID error.
Good Luck

HI guys
i m trying the following method to change boot image in wm6 but no success.
can anybody help me
"""""""""method in some other post"""""""""""
o uses the image convertor you need comdlg32.exe
start the program nb_image_converter_859.exe
edit your pics
save them as
Splash1.nb and Splash2.nb
copy those pics to /windows/
on your device
now copy MDA3_bootimage_changer2.CAB
run it
this will not overwite your copied pictures i hope.
if this one works we are done
reset your device and i hope it will work
Remove splash1 and 2 from your pocket pc root dir
""""""""'its not working on wm6"""""""
and this method does not work on WM5 also, so this is pointless
4 lines color with boot start up
Hi everybody,
After I upgraded to wm5 or wm6, I face with a problem image screen boot up.
the 4 lines color appear when boot creen startup.
Any one here help me?
I try many soft and process but not success.
many thanks.
Wondernpc
The 4 color stripes ARE the boot screen in WM5 and WM6.
You mean the bootloader screen.
Basically you need to re-flash an OS ROM to the device. Preferably an unbranded one.
