Can you MOD hboot 2.16?

Thx.
[HTC One S] TeHashX:
I subscribe to this too because the warning red text is very annoying
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
Yes you can by hex editing it if I have some time I will do it
[HTC One S] evrycard:
Is this the MOD file?

Do you flash it in recovery or in fastboot oem rebootRUU?
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
Was just about to ask you to upload it

With fastboot but I flash with recovery and it's not recommended
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
confirmed working thru fastboot ruu thanks for you brave tester :)
[HTC One S] evrycard:
I am lost here. How do you flash this file?

Extract the img file and use the command below?

fastboot flash recovery hboot.img

Edited:

Correct way to flash as below:

fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip MODDED_hboot_2.16.zip
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
Thru fastboout ruu look in the op for the command
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
So did it work for you
[HTC One S] evrycard:
Yes, it did.
[HTC One S] Flashalot:
OK good dose you hboot header say locked
[HTC One S] cat2115:
OP: Feel free to add to your modded hboot. Test by me and working plus a few other said it works oo,. I use twrp to flash.

Nothing modify beside the "red warming letter"

AWESOME TOOL! I already used it for creating a splash image for my HTC ONE which received S-OFF today. Could you provide such an editor for the HTC DESIRE X as well, [MENTION=1293920]touch of jobo[/MENTION]? I'd like to surprise my girlfriend with a bootsplash. :)
[HTC One S] Sneakyghost:
Not sure she'd like you splashing over her boots :D

Technically, adjusting that script is no problem, so if you ask I suggest you provide him with the exact partition number of the desire x splash and the exact picture size and then ask again.

Obtain the splash partition number by either asking Google or running cat /proc/emmc and also cat /proc/partitions in terminal emulator to get an overview and then best is to dump all partitions that could hold the splash (guess by their sizes) with the dd command and open them with a hex editor. The splash will show some regular pattern of numbers and letters, looking quite different than the other partitions.

You could also Google search XDA for how to convert raw into png or bmp and just run the partition dumps in question through ffmpg... Once you found the right one this script can easily be adjusted.

Still, Jobo needs to be up for it of course :D

Thanks, would be cool if you don't forget that I'm looking forward to have this generator for the DESIRE X. Why not create one website where a visitor has to chose the model of the phone and go through the process step-by-step? ;)

Furthermore, it seems your generator for the HTC ONE doesn't work for me. I chose the picture and clicked "generate" - and after a minute the selected picture just vanishes. Same happens with using different picture formats (PNG and JPG) as well as different browsers (Safari or Firefox). If you have a newer version, I'd appreciate if you share it with me.

Added hboot-2.16 to Post#274. Both a modded and an original one. (I did not add a recovery-flashable version to Post#148.)

Do we have any confirmation yet that the boot splash generator for Ville also works for VilleC2 ?

[MENTION=4686037]SecUpwN[/MENTION]: Can you tell me the partition number of the boot splash and the resolution? Or can you direct me to a thread in the Desire X forum where the partition table has been mapped and all images extracted?

You can use any of the modded hboots I posted up in this thread. They come with no warranty whatsoever, tho.

As for the boot splashes, most of them are not mine. I just converted them and turned them into flashable zips. The actual pictures were done my others. I guess you can just use them until someone complains.

[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Yes. In Post#1 of this thread, I link to Post#148 where I first uploaded some recovery-flashable .zip files with modified hboots, and to

Post#274

where I uploaded some more, but fastboot-flashable this time, as that may be safer.

Flash a

modded

hboot that is the same version you're running now. Follow the recipe from Post#274.

If you ever want to go back to

S-On

, you

must

make sure you have an

original

hboot

first

. Either by flashing one of the originals I posted in this thread or by running a RUU. Going S-On with a modified hboot will brick you.

No it does not.

The contents of that partition gets transferred to the screen buffer regardless of what is in it.

(If you put totally random bit-diarrhea into it, you get colorful snow as your boot splash.)

At the moment I am traveling (again.. Moldova this time.. don't ask.. ;) ) but I will have a look into that when I get back home. 'Should' be about a week or so.

[HTC One S] SecUpwN:
Have an awesome time there! But PLEASE do not forget my request. THANK YOU.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Sorry, but where exactly am I looking? I see a lot of links. Some are dead. Am I overlooking something here?

Using search, I found this post: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33176155 that lists the partition table and the emmc information, but I could not find any post where someone has mapped out the partitions that are not in /proc/emmc. If you know where to find this, direct me to it. Alternatively, if you know that someone has already done it 'manually', please link me to that post.

If you don't think this information is out there, it is not difficult to find out.

First eliminate the partitions that are listed in emmc and the ones that are too small to hold a 480x800 splash.

Then for the others, dump them to a file, download these files to your computer.

Use a hex editor or possibly an image editor that can import raw rgb565 data to identify the splash.

If you don't know how to do this, I can walk you through it. For this, you must be able to get an adb shell in recovery, and feel OK with typing commands in a root shell that an internet stranger feeds you, without making typos.

[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
Yes. Go ahead to the point where you should find the right partition number. Don't go further unless everything goes like I said it would.

As long as everything checks out, just follow along. Go up to the point where you're going to flash the new splash, then PM me, or if you feel confident after doing the first part, just take the plunge.

Edit: I have re-read your post after you replied. If the device has the original splash (which you say it has), then yes, go ahead. If it would have had a modified splash (which you say it has not) I would need more than 1k of data, and hexdumping would not be enough to identify it.

[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
You got the flashable .zip in PM.

I took a flashable .zip from the Desire X forums, took the update binary from there.

Used the same update script as for the One S, but changed the partition number to 19.

Added an image file that fits the dimensions of the Desire X screen, 480x800.

If that worked out for you, the next thing will be for me to setup some php and shell things, and then for you to test the web generator. That will be the 3rd and final chance to break the device. If the generated .zip works then everybody can use it.

[HTC One S] Flippy498:
Since your hboot is not 2.16.0000 I wouldn't recommend to flash the zip. It could brick your phone. But you can use this. Just read the instructions carefully before first use so that you don't brick your phone.

Edit: Well, I think it's easier to use one of the zips in post #148 of this thread.

Edit2: It may be safer to use the zips mentioned in post #274.
[HTC One S] touch of jobo:
If you just want to get rid of the red overlay text, then flash the modded 2.15. The same version you have now, except without the red warning text.

If you want to upgrade your hboot from 2.15 to 2.16 then you need more than to just flash the hboot image. See the link from [MENTION=4678269]Flashalot[/MENTION] in post #477.
