I love startup Animation. I found a few around here on the forum and from some other forums as well.
Here are 2 of my favorites. Both of them are originally not my work, but I have cleaned up both the cabs and edited the HTC bootup one to suit the Rhodium specs along with some audio editing work.
1) HTC Bootup

2) Windows 7 Startup
I will be adding more Startup Animation here as and when I get more. Stay Tuned!
Notes
1) These can be uninstalled. So no fear!
2) Always make sure you uninstall an existing Startup Animation CAB before installing a new one. This is how it should go... a. uninstall the cab, b. reboot, c. install the new cab
3) The CABs have no registry entries because these entries are already present in your registry. However, just in case installing the CABs doesn't do anything for you, install the REG file attached.

Nice
Installing the first one.
Can't wait to see how it looks. Thanks for posting these man. I'll eagerly await more.
EDIT: Works great. But it goes from the first one, the Qualcomm to the Windows 7 one. Is it supposed to do that? If so, cool.
Well not exactly,
The way this works is...
First there is the animation which is about 13 seconds and then there is a static image which is displayed for a few seconds (also known as the carrier image).
The HTC bootup CAB, plays a computer's BIOS animation and then shows you a static image of the windows 7 logo which gives it the appearance of booting into Windows 7.
The other one (Windows 7 CAB) plays the full Windows 7 bootup animation just like on your desktop computer. You know, the 4 colored dots becoming the Windows logo.
Thanks a lot Buddy!
It looks fantastic!
I liked more the win7
Gracias!
Can you make up a U.S. CDMA version of the DOS Booter one?
I most certainly can. Give me a few days.
I love your POST animation.. Cool
Good job..
Gotcha
Okay. Thanks. The EnergyStar Boot screen looks cool. That's the one I'm using. It's pretty cool. Do you think you could make the boot one without the front facing camera item? I have a US version of the phone, so no front facing camera

Same here, no front camera, I think it would be cool saying ..........N/A or

What do you use to make the .gifs? I am wanting to give it a try.
Now just to make a cool start up sound, hate the att warhawk thing

I thought about that. Why have it say N/A? Instead, I thought I'll have it report something else that's actually present on our devices. Nothing negative about our Rhodiums
Suggestions?
This is what I have in mind...
For the CDMA version
1) change the radio info (2G and 3G)
2) Replace the CAM info with something else... possibly the 3.5mm stereo jack. It was present in the original animation that I got.
For the T-MO GSM version
1) Change the 3G freq. info
2) CAM to something else... possibly split the BT and WiFi adapters.
What about AT&T... does it have the front cam?
The HTC annimoation doesn't seem to work the way its supposed to on the 21864 Build, NOV8 release of NRGz Photon ROM. Any of you have that problem? Essentialy what happens is, when the HTC POST animation is playing, there is a moment somewhere around the 3rd to the 6th second into the animation, where the static image (Win7 Logo) shows up for a second and then disappears.

Funny... I know that and still typed it out wrong! Work seems to be getting to me.
Edited the post. How about splitting the WiFi and BT adapters? Battery seems like a good idea.
Splitting Bluetooth and WiFi would probably be the best bet. Best I can think of, at least.
Any chance to set the duration?
The welcome screen is displayed before the animation + sound finished.
Att has no front camera, no 3.5mm jack (as posted), why do they do this to us?
I like the wifi BT idea though, and yeah the N/A idea sucks it was the best I could think of at the time.
Oh, can I get just the files, I like the .cabs and appreciate the work, but all I am doing is changing welcomehead.gif and att warhawk startup.wav so I saved the pic, but need the sound.
Hi there. this is cool but i dont have any animation on my tmo tp2. nore any sound. am i not doing an install right or is this normal? and i was wondering if there is a way i can use my own chosen mp3 or .wav file for start sound? thank so much!!wait 2 secs to reload the image
it's wierd... but for some reason they dont seem to work correctly on all roms. I had no problem with these on the Oct.28 release of NRGz Photon rom. The HTC Post version doesnt work right with every release after the 28 of Oct (21xxx builds). Now i seem to be having problems with the Win7 startup as well.
I'm looking into this. Lets hope i can figure out the problem.

Dialer Button? Can you elaborate on which button?
So far as I can tell, everything works fine on my Wing.
And SmartDial still works!!
This is basically the dialpad another member pulled from the Touch. I just reworked all of the graphics...
On a side note, if anyone wants a different background and can attach a 320x240 and 240x320 version of it, I'll
make it for you...

j/k
I tried this style of dialpad before. I love the preview/SmartDial window, but I can't use it because of this. Besides, this design makes much better use of the keypad space, I think. It's much easier to dial and operate one-handed.
Just to clarify, this dialpad is based on the HTC Touch dialpad which is the same layout I presented, just with different graphics.
=
Which leads me back to tom_codon's comment... Are you referring to the the green 'talk' button? If so why do you need this? My device has a hardware key to start and end a call... therefore making the onscreen button wasted space. Are there some devices that don't have hard keys for this?
If your device has a hardware button for this function, why do you need an onscreen soft button?
Ryan
For some reason, on my herald p4350, it doesn't look right. When I installed, the background and graphics were either missing or distorted. Before I installed it, I had the (or a) generic dialpad (black buttons/white background with HTC emblem).

Hmmm... Hopefully this doesn't work on Wings only. What OS do you have?
Did the keypad layout look the same as the default I displayed?
Did you copy all of the images in the zip to your Windows directory (overwriting what was already there)?
What images are missing?
Which are distorted?
Were you able to revert back to your default?
I've re-uploaded the image zip file with a couple changes. If you don't mind, please try it again and let me know!
Before anyone tries this, make sure you have a backup dialpad you can fall back on just in case.

I have exactly the same problem when trying to use any dialpad! Did you find a solution for this?
I have the same problem, I have HTC p4350, its all messed up, The "frames" of the dialerbuttons are visible, but I see only w/e is running in the background (If I have IE running, I see the contents of the browser instead of the dialer buttons) I can press the buttons, and when I do the numbers I press shows up....but cant have it that way...I removed the dialer without any problem using uninstall function..
wish anyone could get it to work
I haven't found a solution to this. It might be because our default dialpad is black and white. For some reason, my other device (ipaq 6828 - wm5) has the green dialpad as default. I have no problems installing and using other dialpad on that. I think as long I have this black and white dialpad as default on my htc, I will continue to have this problem of installing other dialpads. This might apply to many of us here as well.

Can you post a screenshot of your default dialpad, and the result with mine? You'll need a screen capture program like MagicSS to do it. Click on the 'Ficher CAB ARM' link to download a cab to your device, or use the Windows installer link just above it. Then map it to a button, go to the dialpad, and press the button. It will ask you where to save the bmp, then you can upload it here so I can try and figure out what's going on.
Also, if you just install the Touch dialpad without copying my images, does it work ok?
Ryan
I have tried both dialpads, the "original" and the skinned one, they do the same..Ill try to make the capture and upload it in few...
here is the dialpad with the new dialpad:
here is the one i use now (black something):
the one I use is a skinned one, but the result with the new dialpad is the same if I try install it on a new installed rom with original dialpad..
Thank you itje,
Ryan, itje's screen captures are exact depictions of my phone when I attempt to use new dialpad. For now, I'm using the default green HTC dialpad. Hopefully there will be a solution soon. Thanks again itje and Ryan for the screen capture app.

Sorry to venture a little off topic guys, but does anybody know of a tutorial for creating my own dialpad?
has anybody found a solution to this?
Seems as if alot of people are experiencing this problem. One thing I have noticed with alot of the new dialpad skins is that the file format is different compared to the stock WM skins. The old skins are in .bmp format I believe, and the new ones seem to be in .png . Taking a wile guess but maybe this has something to do with it.....
wm5 vs wm6
Hey guys, sorry I haven't gotten back to you; for some reason I didn't get any email notifications until today...?
Anyhow, I can say for sure that the problems you guys are experiencing are due to the transparency used in my dialpad.
As for why it's a problem for some and not others... Perhaps it's device specific, or more likely as MisterSosa said it's WM5 vs. WM6.
itje and robosiris, are you on WM5 or WM6?
BTW, I have another thread with newer versions here.

same problem here, using WM6
I no others are trying to get this interface to work on other HTC phones is there anyone trying to get it on the Universal? As I use my phone in portrait mode 65% of the time it would seem the best interface to have for a portrait device?
Try this and reply
http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/board/2120/implement-the-new-htc-touch-interface-to-your-pocket-pc.html
This is for qvga only !! and not for ours Universal which is VGA...too bad ...
I too am also very interested in seeing this made for the Universal, any developers here thinking about making a VGA version?.... :-D
Thanks for the link, I guess when I get WM6 will give it a shot. The only thing it does not have is the "cube interface". Unless we can get a ROM chef to incorporate it in to OUR ROM. But thanks again.
I tried the ivan's wm6 touch rom posted in the Universal Mobile 6 board, not good, all the nice touch interface become ugly, waiting for someone get a vga touch interface.
So your using the final beta? I've heard mixed reviews of that ROM. Have you tried the files in the linked posted above they say it will work with WM6. I guess we need someone with a vanilla ROM to try it. So does Ivans ROM have the "cube Interface" or just the HTC home plugin and the comm manager?

I tried that rom and found the touch interface is ugly then switched to other rom. I don't think the linked htc home plugin will work unless you know how to set it to work on vga mode. In the elf2 rom there is only htc home plugin, I didn't see the "cube interface", I maybe wrong since I didn't play too much in that rom. I am still trying different rom and haven't found one that is better,
Vanilla WM6 with linked CAB
Has anyone tried a vanilla WM6 with the linked CABS in this thread?
HTC Touch
I think people are overestimating just how good the touch interface is. I don't have one myself, but after watching every review on the net, it just doesn't look like the (*rolls eyes*) iPod equivalent everyone is saying it is. Sure, it looks pretty, but the interface is slow as hell, and the swipe feature will be hard to use on any device where the edge of the screen is raised.
I'll stick with Spb Mobile Shell with black theme on KDSKamal's WM6-Beautiful thank-you very much.
I hear ya', but I don't care about the Ifone, this an HTC product made for a specific phone Touch/Elf. Our phone is not going to be supported by any carrier anymore, so we as the collective need to make use of what our phone maker has to offer. The Touchflo is the newest thing, wether or not Apple came out with there phone or not I would still want that capability on my phone. Sure I could go buy WAD(Wisbar advance desktop) and recreate the look of it and some functionality of it; but with so many bright minds in this forum, as well as so many other phones of the HTC brand porting it to their phones I thought we might have a chance as well. Hell if I still have my phone and WM7 comes out I will try to get that as well! Please don't take this rant as personal attack, just had a hard day.
Peace
Peace back at ya man.
I agree that we should try to keep our Unis as up to date as possible, and I absolutely agree - when WM7 comes out, I want it on my Uni. What I meant was that, although TouchFlo IS the newest HTC 'innovation', it also seems to be one of their poorest. As I said, I haven't actually used one yet, but after a few hours of video reviews online, it just looks like a s l o w gimmick that HTC Touch users will get annoyed with after a week or so, and wish they could un-install.
Regards
I have both the Jasjar and the Touch and so far I am happy of having them both.
I really like the size of the touch and if you don't want to use the TouchFlo interface, use it like the ordinary PPC. There is no need to uninstall because the default interface is the same as the other PPCs.
Opps
Any updates about TouchFLO for Universal..
Neo users are having it!
Try this it's fantastic, though it has some bugs still.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328010
Its just a flash program!
Right, it is *.swf file.
You can create a shortcut *.lnk file that link to the *.swf file and place it \Windows\Startup\, bingo, your PPC boots up to Touch Flo.
But anyone figures out how to remove the demo wordings on it?
Wohooo!

MWC has been released: please follow the discussion here: MWC thread

UPDATE: October 12th, 2007 - The animation will now show with no flickering.
Dear developers,
I started the developement of a WM WaitCursor replacement. Since the default WM graphic module (gwes.exe for WM5 and shellres.96.dll for WM6) doesn't support transparent images for the WaitCursor, I'd like to add this feature to our devices.
The idea is quite simple:
- Remove the WaitCursor Resources from that modules
- Write an application that catch the WaitCursor event (if it exists) and shows an user defined one.
I already wrote a initial application that shows a cursor only when executed and it works quite good. It is written in Native C++ that means more efficency and less memory usage.
The application runs in background and has no window so it doesn't show any "close" button and no soft-keys.
The images (PNG with alpha transparence!!!) are loaded from a directory and drawed in the screen (the IImagingFactory interface is no more used because it's too slow).
Here are some screenshots...

Help wanted
Anyway I have 2 major problems:
If there is another window opened and I scroll that window, the already drawed pictures scroll, too.
The pictures are painted over the precedent ones, so if there is a transparent picture, the back one is still present. (To avoid that problem I tried to capture the portion of the screen and paint it just before every picture with BitBlt, but it introduces a little flicker problem)
If someone is experienced with the GDI and can suggest me a way to solve that problem or a better way to draw that pictures I'll appreciate it very much.
And do you know which event is thrown when the WaitCursor is showed? So i can catch it.
thank you very much for every help you give me.
Marshall
I attached a video in the first post showing the potential of this application.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

I just wanna point out that your first problem might not be a problem at all... Can you scroll when the current / official wait icon is shown ? i think not, since that is why it is shown, to let you know there's nothing you can do but wait... I'm not sure, but my guess is that nothing can happen under your cursor once you show it when it's supposed to be shown.
About the second problem, i have no idea...
wow i like what i see. cannot help with "flicker" though...video and info explains why mac wait cursor is not possible now ....

Good point! Thank you RPG0. Maybe it could be a problem if you, for example delete a file. The WaitCursor appears (it can happen in the \windows dir) and the file explorer remove that line and makes the window scroll because now one file is missing. I'm not sure but maybe this situation could introduce that error.
BTW, at the moment it is not so important. Thank you again.

Actually it could be possible in some way. If I capture the screen and draw it before every frame, the "overlapping" problem will not occur. But, like I saied, it will introduce the flicker issue. I believe that there is a way to do it with no flickering but I'm still looking for it.
Marshall
...this guy is so smart...can´t wait to see it´s first stable release...keep up this cool work.
...btw...when you managed the waitcursor to get transparency, this should also work for the pop-up windows eg for new sms coming in????...wow imagine the posibilities...

The projects is going on, a bit slowly since I'm very busy and I have some issues with the new version.
I finally eliminated the flicker problem replacing the IImage functions with the better bitblt but I'm still getting some problems with the AlphaBlend function to draw the pictures transparently.
BTW, like you said, it can bring lot of possibilities!

I have the xda neo with gullums prophet VIII. I copied at first touch wait cursor to programs folder and tried to install. After installation it makes a softreset, but the old waitcursor is on screen, not the new installed. I tried it again with vista cursor...the same. What can i do?
Me Too!
I'm also getting the same issue. I use LSW's Black WM6 OS.
This questions should be posted at the Marshall WaitCursor Skin thread. This is the Developement thread of the "Transparent" WaitCursor.
However, the skins you installed are for WM5. You have to install a WM6 version. At the moment only the Touch WaitCursor Skin is available for WM6 but all the others are coming soon.
You'll find it at the bottom of the languages list for the Touch WaitCursor Skin at the download page.

Good news!
I finally was able to show the animation with no flickering. This "little" step will make it possible to use any kind of transparent pictures (even MAC and Linux Bouncing cursors). Ther'll be no overlapping between two different frames in total smoothness.
The next step will be capturing the moment in which the OS shows the default WaitCursor in order to show mine. I sadly discovered that there is no event thrown by the system in that situation, so I'll have to look for another way. I read somewhere that it can be done with the WM Cursor APIs but it seems to not work.
If you know a way to let the application know when the OS shows (and hides) the default WaitCursor, please tell me.
Any other help will be also appreciated.

How do make my Files Smaller
when i click pictures with - Pocket Screen
Good tip for people with the 6800, or any 320 X 240 and 240 X 320 screens, in google just type in the serch bar,
"320 x 240" and "240 X 320" for landscape and portrait pics..
lets see, visible, i have htc home, of course, and thats about it. the buttons are done with wisbar desktop and the menues and task manager are all wisebar advanced. power button is shutxp. battery meter at the top is vistahide battery gauge. i think that might sum it up?

Wow -- I really like that fact that you told us everything that you had loaded too. That really helps being new and such. Thanks.
Ok .. here is mine.
Basically using the HTC Home Customizer with HTC HomeW6.
I have installed the HTX X-button but not really sure I like it. Open to other recommendations.
Also, I have the Stroths-Codyppc LedKiller 3.1, but it doesnt always seem to work -- real strange. Seems like once I sync up, it deactivates or something. Open to a better suggestion here too.
Edit: Actually the LEDKiller 3.1 does work as it is suppose to. I didn't realize that it would start blinking again if I had a vx msg out there. Ahh, still learning.
Here are the links for the tab theme and customizer (thanks to Mr Nur for these):

My today screen looks identical to yours so I won't bother posting a pic.
Regarding your task manager, I fully suggest wktask. It is customizable like crazy. For instance, I have mine set up so that a downward swoop closes all open apps. In one swoop!!! Tell me that's not convenient.

Wow, thank's for the feedback guy's, keep up the good work lol,

No you can't..sorry lol..
do you think you could run me through setting up wisbar desktop with that vista theme? I tried once, but just ended up locking up my phone and having to reinstall to be able to do anything.
I would be more than happy to help anyone with Wisbar, either advance or desktop. I have become quite fond of the programs. I will tell you that if you are using any of the new roms of new radios, for some reason wisbar is a little glitchy (they are slow to update their software). I used the vista theme for quite a while, had the windows, C:, sidebar, everything. But its a HUGE memory hog. As much as it was cool to show people that I could open a window on my "desktop", it wasnt worth having to wait 10 seconds to reply to a text message because the phone was loading so slow. I am actually using the vista theme right now on wisbar. Thats what the button on the bottom is. The Vista theme (original, not the crappy knockoff ones) is three pages, the one you see on mine, a desktop one, and a sidebar one. I have just removed the last two. If you are still interested, let me know. I have the original files for the vista theme, i can upload it and let you know how to set it up.
And Mr. Nur, I dont really know what you are trying to say in reply to the question about HTC home. The HTC home on my screen is the EXACT same one thats on your screen. I can customize it using HTC customizer if i want to and I have the 6 tab option as well (i just like only 5 of the tabs though.) So I guess i dont really understand the question. I am running that setup with HTC Home?
Win Ce Cab Manager and wallpaper tsks
Does anyone know how to make Win Ce Cab Manager change your tsk files. Or change the wall paper. What i'm tryin to do is install a cab that'll change my wall paper for me.
The only thing I wan't people to do when they see the thread is download that program and post 2 pics of their phone, i'm just hosting a thread so anyone can show people what there phone look's like after putting time into it..
Mine's not anything special at the moment because I just flashed to the new ROM this weekend and I haven't gotten around to setting it up all the way yet. I will probably not do too much customizing until I get a ROM I want to settle on.
Hey guys, I put together a post the other day over at everythingwm.com featuring a custom home screen I made for the HTC Ozone, figured I'd mention it here as well. Here's what I ended up with:
{
"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_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",

Would this work for the 3g Dash?
Really nice, I am trying...
nice.. thanx.. the darker background looks good
jus abit creepy cos i cant see my /Windows folder... probably hidden... so i manually moved the required files..
AWESOME..hows it feel to be the first person to actually customize the Ozone.
great job!
Thanks!
Glad to hear you guys all like it!
It should work with the Dash as it long as it came with the stock HTC Sliding Panel home screen. Just open up the wallpaper PSD in Photoshop and change that Ozone logo to the 3G Dash logo, if you want to.
The /windows folder shows up when you select 'Show Hidden Files & Folders' and uncheck 'Hide Protected System Files...' in your windows folder view settings (same on xp, vista, 7, etc.)
SoCalSpecialist, didn't realize I was the first, but it feels great!
Thanks!

Haaaaaaaaaa! You funny... Cooking????? You mean cooked! Fried! Baked! Steamed! Ready to serve 1.1 billion. Just unflashable due to CID lock. Jockyw2001 is helping me CID unlock these powerhouses and he says he's free to finish this week... Check with him if he's gotten anywhere with it.
You're too awesome ookba. I wish I could help you and Jockyw2001 out, but I'm just a noob. LOL
Only thing I can do is flash your rom and test it out for ya. And DONATE of course
Is your rom going to be for the Maple or Willow or both?

from the conversation i had with him earlier, here is what jockeyw said to me :
"As soon as I have some hours left I hope to finalize the SSPL for the Maple. If the SSPL runs then the HardSPL (it's ready) can be flashed. We are close, it's just a matter of having some time to finish it off."
