[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] -888-:
UPDATE 2010-12-29

I've been told (and I have confirm it) that some of the Chefs have included my graphics in their WM6.1 and WM6.5 ROMs... I have nothing against anyone using my works, but since i

t takes much more time to create graphics for animated splash than it takes to cook any ROM

(and I know, since I do both), my dear fellow Chefs: please have at least some decency and say at least simple "thank you" in your ROM's thread!

Thank you.

:mad:

----------------------------------------------------------------

I have been contacted by some about my "theory" (as someone put it nicely ;)) regarding fluid/continuus startup screens, as I have described HERE

It is described there and I can't explain it any better, sorry... and since pictures are worth 1000 words, I have made quick animation to show what I meant:

created from actual files

all available in attachments

NOTE: The "public" version of splash obviously doesn't have any personal infos​

What you see in the animation is exactly as I described:

1 ROM Splash screen, which I called "BIOS SPLASH". It is need to be loaded into the ROM, for download and see details HERE

This file "transforms" into

2 StartUp Animation screen - which is my version of

animated.gif

file you need to add to your \Windows folder on your Kaiser's Main Storage (not to \Windows on your SD Card if exists, not to \WINDOWS on your PC, or anywhere else ;) )

This file "transform" next to

3 StartUp Splash which is my version of

welcomehead.96.png

file you need to add to your \Windows folder on your Kaiser's Main Storage (not to \Windows on your SD Card if exists...etc)

That's all.

The last screen of animation is Kaiser's ToDay screen with somebody's theme using Vista wallpaper (I added it just to end the animation with some actual ToDay screen to have it look like it would happen on actual phone).

You find attached below:

animated.gif

888-animated-BIOS2VistaWelcomehead96.zip two versions (choose shorter or longer version)

simulation above uses "longer" version, the "shorter" version has faster transformation from last "BIOS screen" into "Windows Mobile screen" (it just fade-in rapidly versus normal fading-in)

welcomehead96.png

888-welcomehead96-WM61-Vista.zip

You can and should edit it with i.e. your name or ROM version or anything you want to add there, it will be displayed for few seconds as last screen before ToDay loads

_StartUpSound.wav

888-StartUpSound-Vista....zip

/edited/

you can choose mono or stereo startup sound.

Mono is half the size of stereo sound (and honestly there is no need for stereo sound since Kaiser has only 1 mono speaker...). Both are working fine (tested on my Kaiser).

Just for the record: although Kaiser normally plays all wav files (8-bit, 22kHz, 32kHz, etc) it does NOT play them at startup! The 22kHz/8bit wav files were never played at startup, and for this reason I removed them.

If you downloaded sound files before, make sure you have the 44kHz/16bit files. Or just download them now again and replace them to be sure.

BIOS Splash

This is (--->GET IT HERE <---) is a ROM flashing utility needed to add first ROM boot splash.

Instructions

(for n00bs basically)

Extract all files.

Copy animated.gif, welcomehead.96.png and _StartUpSound.wav of your choice (if you want startup sound, if not - skip it) to your phone's Storage Card or My Documents or any other folder.

Use Total Commander to move (or copy) these files to your \Windows folder, overwriting any existing files (you may want to make their backup first if you want to keep them for later for any reason).

Use Schap's Advanced Configuration Utility to setup StartUpSound as boot playback.

Also make sure to set volume to 1 (by default it is set to 0, and that means maximum volume, your startup sound will sound like one loud noise if you don't change volume a notch down - which is 1).

Extract Kaiser_SPLASH_BIOS_080818r_Generic.zip to a folder of your choice on your computer (Desktop is fine).

Make sure your phone is connected to your PC, ActiveSync is "green" etc etc and run the KaiserCustomRUU.exe (just READ and follow the instruction it shows on screen). You are flashing your existing ROM on your Kaiser/Tilt with new BIOS Splash screen only (not with any new ROM, even though it may look like it), but very same precautions as with flashing any ROM applies! Don't do it if youre not sure what are you doing, what is it or if you are clueless. DON'T. I warned you. If you brick your phone don't message me, I just told you NOT TO DO IT :D

Well, that's all.

Enjoy.
