Dude......

I personally like the "Crucible Planet" and the HTC Touch.

But, one questions......where did you get all those fonts? I love the how the fonts are pretty similar to the theme fonts.

Very impressive.....keep up the awesome work. I actually downloaded and different ones.....depending on the mood I am in.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Greenturtle:
thanks so much! I will flash it to my G4 in a second :)

Oops didnt realise it was the wrong way round :S lol, some very good splash screens you have here, well done :D.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
THAT'S WHAT I AM TALKING ABOUT!! Fonts are easy just google 'em... Some I have to "paint" by hand (photoshop) to look more like what I want... All in a days work!!

Those little white dots all over the city-scape make that a very difficult picture to do... But I enjoyed the challenge!! The HTC Logo was from a better image...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
How about some "Crop Circles"....

Bert, now you are getting desperate.. lol
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Just need to create... Found a cool website...

http://www.pocketpcscreens.com/

Thought I would make some matching Splash/Flash for some of there themes... You can also upload your own imales and make a theme....

Do you think I should stop making these? They are not as popular as I had hoped... I hope I am not loading the server up too much!! I just keep thinking that I will make a winner, one that someone like Faria, or anichillus will use in their rom's... Oh well I will keep on trying to someone tells me to stop... It is a good stress reliever!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Thought I would make a "Trnasfomers" Splash/flash
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Michalek:
I have a wish :) Can you make cab and zip only for me? It's my (I know, basically) anti-theft solution. Only one picture for three screens.

Thank you ;)

Update: Links deleted.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Michalek:
Really thank you.

Here is the last screen.

Update: Links deleted.

And no fear, the address is address of my school ;)

It's OK, only czech language will be good; I'm all my life in czech republic ;) Really. Thank you.

Bert, you should learn how to make animated ones.. :)
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Michalek:
Thank you, thank you, thank you. Downloaded, installed, working! Nice :)

keep rubbing it in that you got the 8525 and I didn't!!

I am having trubles installnig RUU_SPLASH file.

I start it and then it starts checking for the device and settings and the couple seconds later Windows Vista gives me error that it needs to close my application. I tried couple time and the same error.

Do i need some kind of extra software installed for this file to work on my computer?

Thank you......
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] cptcafne:
Badbert,

If I give you a list, would you be willing to remake some of the screens with out any branding? I just prefer the graphics, personally. Great work.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Sorry I have no idea how to do this in vista, but I am sure that Vista is the problem....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Well I would certainly consider it for you!! Give me the list and I will look it over...
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
In the first post I reference the method that I use....

If you have a particular screen you would like done, I would be proud to do them for you!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ANTC:
could u make an HTC logo and this

but I need it so I can translate it into my rom not as a different flash

thanks

What Program

<--- badbert --->

Can I ask what program you use to do your art work with?

I have a CD full of pictures I did years ago for when they were little 100x100 or so (bout 45meg worth). Thinking about draging out that cd and seeing if anything on there is worth doing for the new 8125 I have now.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Uhh No... I will do three or four you pick! But you certainly can't expect me to do all of those over again, just so you don't have to look at the branding... Or maybe I do not understand... Eyes is not branded...

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Pumpiron579:
Badbert, can you do one for the USPF....
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Its beautiful man, nice job!! One problem though... you have too many files in the zip file. Change the "RUU_Splash.exe" to "RUU_SPLASH.zip". Then drag and drop the "NK.nbf" file on top of it. It will update the zip file. Then change the name back to RUU_Splash.exe" and that is the only file you need to send.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Here is one for the USPF... The eagle logo was too small I found another one. If that is not ok, let me know and get me a bigger file...

Thanks.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
wow thanx!!! I am saving for an 8525, then I will make screens for that!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] DaKender:
hehehe, think I might be getting the hang of this. Now I think I have to change my splash screens every day :D

Here is my latest. Shouldn't be copywrited, found the picture on google, and it didn't say it was, if it is, SORRY, delete it.:rolleyes: Still havn't got the art down to add words, like HTC or WIZARD but someday hehehe.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Very cool, Nicolas Cage! Guess what, I am using this one!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] Domush:
Badbert,

Can you please describe the steps you take in order to get working BMP files for the HTC logo?

eg: Save as png in Photshop, convert using ImageMover Pro to 24b BMP, run bat file.

When I do get a file that fits into 65K it shows up corrupted on my Wizard.

I use Photoshop to create it, save as 8 bit PNG (256 color), convert using nb_image_converter.exe and off I go.. except my Wizard shows the image as a corrupted mess upon boot (the HTC Logo only).

My first boot screen set worked fine, but I have no idea if that was simply a stroke of luck or just a fluke.

Once I get this set working (I will wait for your reply), I will upload it here.

Thanks,

Lowkee
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Please Check the first post I posted the link to the-equinoxe thread. You do not use nb_image_converter.exe to make the logo (first screen).

I am also going to update my first post for my photoshop methods...

Flashed the TouchSplash2 but it only had two pictures inside. Any chance of a splashscreen release with three "official-looking" HTC screens? There's a great image on these forums somewhere with a white background and the HTC Logo in the centre. Perhaps that could be the third screen?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
You find it, I'll make it!!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] melvynadam:
Here's the scoop:

I found two other "official looking" HTC splashscreens.

A white one in this post and a black one here.

My preference would be for the following three images (in this order):

The black one from above.

The first image from TouchSplash2.zip

The first image from your Logo.N.Splash.zip
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Ok just so I got it straight.. this is how you want them
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] melvynadam:
Thinking about this again, the 2nd image is the one displayed at the same time as the SPL etc numbers right? If so, this order probably makes more sense:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Ok then I think there is only one more option, shall I do the third first? J/K!!:D
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] melvynadam:
Thanks very much but I'm confused. There are only two images in the file. I posted three thumbnails.

Edit: Now I understand.... Imageshack seems to have deleted one of them and now my post only shows two so you only made it with two. If it's not too much trouble, please can you make a file which will flash the following three images:
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
The third picture never changed just the first two...

The first two are done by Splash/Flashing your phone, the third is installed by a cab file. Since the cab did not change just use the cab from the first version.....

Sweet job man, quick question though: I'm having trouble getting the third splash screen to take on the NBD 7.9 ROM... no matter what i flash the third screen is always NBD. I was trying to do the cruicble planet one wtih the touch splashes for the first two but the crucible one didn't overwrite the third screen.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
The third screen is changed by the cab file....

It's a funny thing, I thought this thread was dead. I really enjoy doing these screens. But when I started this thread I really wanted to make personal screens. I expected to get pics of family, in memory of, kids , pets, company Logos, and just general personal pictures. So that when people booted their phones they could be greeted by their favorite pics... I started making stock photo screens, and only got to make a couple personal ones.... So now that it has once again surfaced...

ANY REQUESTS???

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] MrCyberdude:
@badbert you want some creative Splashes, i have em.

Great work on the splash screens, i havent tried any yet but will be doing so soon.

So far my favorites choices you have done would have to be the following.

Wolf - Used to have 2 Alaskan Malamutes

Usa Native - Especially without the Branding - Very nicely done.

lil Devil - (Hmmm what about "Hot Stuff" Comics)[/list]

Blue/Purple Dragon

Abstract and Crucible Planet.

I normaly prefer no logos also.

Like the way you have blended/faded the round windows logo though.

Thought someone may want this as its the Transformers logo.

I have about 12Mb of jpgs that i have collected for possible ideas for screens, should i split the file and post it here, The file size is allowed but is it acceptable over 2 posts?

The idea is that people can dump on their local drive and i'm sure there are a few people will want.

Here is a tiny tiny sample, And the taste varys.

For example the 3 atomic are grouped.

None of the images are sized correctly but they are nearly all in the region just larger than 320x240 up to around 350x450 and range in size from 10k-80k without any optimization.

Using these boot/splash screens on a G4

i've seen many good looking splash and boot screens in this thread and i'm dying to have this on my G4 locked wizard..

i've read other threads saying that i should extract the nk.nbf file containing the splash and so on.. then flash it using the wizard love update utility..

but how do i exactly that? extracting the nk.nbf? i've downloaded some screens here and it contains a RUU_splash.exe utility.. can i use it to flash the splash on my G4 locked wizard? or is it for G3 only?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Just use it bro... If it works it works if not let me know and I will fix it! Some of the early ones, do not use the latest RUU. But it will just give you an error and won't flash. The majority will flash just fine, Locked , unlocked, G4, G3... They all work!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
The boot screen I am trying to use is the one below that says wizard on it. I already have the cab installer for the actual splash screen, the seccond screen that shows up when you restart the device.

I have 2 thumbs below and the first is the one I want for the boot screen, the seccond is the one I already have installed as my splash. I dont think I have to worry about the 3rd splash screen because the system loads completely after the seccond screen.

The file I downloaded is the BlkLogo.zip but it just gives me an error message and doesnt work.

Mainly what I am trying to do is just change the very first screen(the T-Mobile screen) that shows when you first reboot or turn on the device.

If I could just have a newer version made for use on a CID locked G4 T-Mobile MDA that would be awesome.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ytsejam_:
thanks for the reply.. i tried the ruu_splash.exe straight from the zip file, but it returned an error that it cannot be used on my phone.. [error 300]..

im using the TouchSplash2.zip can i have it redone to be used on my device?

thanks a million..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Ok so you unzipped the file and ran the EXE file inside the folder, right?

Because the version of RUU in that file is the same as the WizardLove.... It should work. You are Using a WIZARD aren't you?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] badbert:
Ok go back to the post where those pictures are. Download the zip file. Unzip it, plug your phone in and make sure activesync is connected and finished. run the RUU_SPLASH.EXE file. It is the latest RUU and it will give you both of the files shown. HTC and HTC wizard, and then you will see the splash screen.

The t-mobile flash is showing you the same screen for screen one and two, but trust me there are two different screens before the Splash screen.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] dharvey4651:
Ok I tried exactly what you just told me to do and received error 300.

it tells me to use a newer RUU.

I do have the NBD 8.1 rom installed. Would that affect the installation?

Would it be beneficial to me to revert back to the T-Mobile first and then try to flash the boot screen and then reflash the rom or am I just not meant to flash the boot screen?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] ytsejam_:
yep.. i'm using a wiza200 device (qtek 9100) g4 CID locked device.. it returned me an error 300..

i was running wizardloverom rom when i did this..
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading] famewolf:
From your previous post I understood that the HTC Logo was the 1st pic to be displayed before the IPL/SPL screen showed up. I would like to display the wolf as that brief pic where currently I have the cylon from the XDA6 rom.
