[Desire Android Development] john-au:
Hi all.

I know this question should be in another thread as I'm pretty sure it's NOT ROM RELATED (ok just tried it on another desire with different rom so definately NOT ROMs fault), but posting here as it will be read here and hopefully answered as this after all is the best Desire Rom going atm and probably for the life of the Desire itself, and also the best people to help in any case as we are all loyal RSK followers and proud of it and love helping other ppl with problems, crawl crawl crawl lol.

Anyway, I've been trying to flash a new Splash screen from Joker to one i made up with another number to contact if i lose the phone and a honest person finds it can contact me as they can read the splashscreen when they turn it on (yes there are honest ppl out there still).

Done this on many occasions before w/o any drama and it should be the easiest thing the flash on a phone.

Now tried Android Flasher (AF) and Fastboot Commander (FBC) but both wont work. FBC comes up with msg at end saying it didnt work and AF just hangs at "Rebooting" spot each time.

LOG OF AF IF ANY HELP

ren splash1.bmp.nb splash1.img

fastboot.exe flash splash1 splash1.img).

I have Net 4.0 installed and Android Drivers and have placed the file to be flashed in the same folder as AF and FBC and flashing whilst in Bootloader/Fastboot/ FastbootUSB, which i think should be all i need. Tried on PC running Win7 and another running WinXP. For AF the image is 480*800 BMP and the image for FBC is the same size but IMG format as it doesnt take any other format, (I used XnView to convert from BMP to IMG as recommended ages ago on another thread but for the same problem).

Now have not so long ago just formatted both PCs one to XP (older PC) and the other to Win7 64bit Enterprise edition, but I'm pretty sure all drivers needed are installed properly but then again that is probably the problem.

HELP!!

PS If and probably its the Andriod Drivers fault not being installed properly, how do i delete the drivers and install them properly as Android Drivers are not your common easy to install drivers and I'm not that dumb (except in this case and many others as well but do know my way around a PC).
