I would like to get my hands on these images too. The way I have been doing it is flash back to the original ROM, once stock flash the radio back to the new version you want, then flash the OS to the new ROM version. You have to pick a rom that doesn't touch the splash though. Only went through that PITA once. It would be nice in case a Cingular Rep ever got their hands on it.
Here are the Boot Splashes

has the PrimarySplash.nb/SecondarySplash.nb and the RUU_signed.nbh I just did and tested.

Yeah thats the one. Can I just drop and replace this one?
from the FAQ:
Code:
Disable/change the startup animation or sound
HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation
Enabled - change from 1 to 0 to turn everything off and permanently fix the volume issue.
You can also customize the animated boot up by deleting or changing 2 keys. (Doing this does not fix the volume issue)
Delete the WAVFile Key to remove the sound only.
Delete the GIFFile Key to remove the animation only.
Put your own .GIF file or .WAV file on the phone and rewrite the 2 keys (WAVFile GIFFile) to the new file location. i.e. \My Documents\Files\CustomAnimation.gif
The Gif key portion was where this .gif was linked on the original. Place it somewhere and change that key.

Strange... I don't have these entries. May be the ROM that I am using (Black 2.5) I will try adding them and seeing if that works.
Thanks for the info. All of the stuff I got from the wiki pertained to cooking/converting an image.
I assume:
KLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation
Enabled - change from 1 to 0 to turn everything off and permanently fix the volume issue.

is a DWord decimal value of 1?
and
Delete the GIFFile Key to remove the animation only.

and this is a String value to the path\file?
BTW: I am now on the Dutty V2 ROM and these values do not exist. Might they only work on factory HTC/ATT "hacked" roms? I have read there might be DLL's that go with these entries.

I put the entries in as above and it did not work. I ended up using the one w/o animation. I have a feeling you only have the registry entries there to be modified if you have an OEM ROM.
I have a feeling there are a few more registery entries in there then he wrote in there - would like to see a reg dump (at least of that section). There are also probably some .DLL's or other files we need to fully get it running! Maybe I'll dump a Cingular rom later to see if I don't see anything obvious I'm assuming this is in the new Cingular rom?
Yes, should even be in the one before it since when I bought my phone about 2 months ago it was animated as well.
So far from the digging, the Registry entries are:
Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"Volumn"=dword:10
"WAVFile"="\\Windows\\3G_Up.wav"
"GIFFile"="\\Windows\\3G Up_01_1.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:1
I've not yet found any other entries related to it on a quick pass through. The animated gif and sound file I have attached but I have not yet got it to work. I did notice there is no welcomehead.96.png and I wonder if it the existence of that file on my current rom has anything to do with it. I've not been able to delete the file (part of the rom) to see if it would have any effect. This is about as much as I'll be able to figure out for right now at any rate. If anybody else has any ideas as to enabling it (is there a .DLL that needs to be loaded? Part of me wonders if there is a command to execute it built into the bootsplash within the section that is usually added as padding? Just some brainstorming.

You can delete the welcomehead.96.png by getting another file browser (like Resco Explorer or Total Commander) and changing the file permission.
some at&t today themes would be nice. i really like my WM6 Vanilla theme, but if someone could throw the new at&t logo on there somewhere id be very appreciative. maybe the bottom right corner of the today screen?
According to this forum >http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/...ngular&message.id=41950&query.id=90285#M41950
You have to power the unit off for 10 seconds for the changes to take effect. Dont have time to check it. Can someone verift?
I got some pretty sweet splash screens I want to use instead of the default T-Mobile ones. How do I go about editing these? I tried to search the forum before I posted this, but couldn't find anything.
I think the initial boot splashscreens are integrated in ROM, so you'd need to edit the ROM image before reflashing. I think there maybe tools around to help you with doing this, but am not sure.
I'm referring to the screens while the phone is on. Exclamation, info, call, text. All those screens.
All the images like question mark, info, etc.. are in \windows\ dir, just sort everything by type and look for gif's. You can then replace them with your images as long as name and dimensions are the same.
BTW you can change the startup/shutdown splash screens as well, same way, by overwriting those in ROM, without any flashing.
Anyone know the file name of the incall screen? The one I got to replace it is just call.gif and there isn't one in my windows dir.
I overwrote all the splashscreens but they haven't changed on my device. I even did a soft reset after i replaced them and nothing! If I check in my Windows dir they're the ones I just put on there, so why aren't they showing up on the phone?
To anyone who may be able to help me with this:
I'm using PDAViet 3.00.07.20, and i'm working my way in cooking it to match my preferences.
I've converted default.hv and user.hv to .RGU files so i can change some reg entrys (to add/remove apps/preferences - also editing Initflashfiles.dat). Made some changes, saved in Unicode format, and converted back to .HV files. Created the OS.NBH (well, all the right steps to have a rom ready to be flashed into the device).
Once the flashing is finished, i boot the device and stumbled upon a problem:
- The startup animation runs ok but there's no sound. I hear the speaker go ON with some background noise, but no .WAV file is actually played.
NOTE:
When i first converted the default.hv to defalt.rgu, these were the values i encountered:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"Volumn"=dword:0
"WAVFile"=“\\Windows\\Startup_sounds.wav”
"GIFFile"="\\Windows\\HTC Black.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:1
At first i thought it was because the entry "Volumn" was equal to 0, so it would be normal if there was no sound, but i changed it to 22, 35(advices from a friend), and 4555(i got this value when searching for an answer to this problem - i don't really remember in which thread), but the result was always the same - NO SOUND
I even changed the .WAV target to another file, but still no sound.
Then I tried another thing, just edited the rom with some customized image files, changed some entrys in the initflashfiles.dat, but left the original .HV files. Again rebuilt the rom, flashed it to my device, and no surprise, the StartupAnimation sound works!!!
So I guess the problem has something to do with the process of converting .HV files to .RGU and back.
I'm using notepad2 to edit the files.
Any help will be appreciated. Sorry for the length of the post.
UP for this problem !
Me, i have rename :
GIFFile to GIF
WAVFile to WAV
and put "0" to "ENABLE" ...
Turn off device by button "normal" not soft reset with pencil ... turn on and suprise ! no HTC sound and logo ...
Does anybody know how create a .REG file for automatic reg modification ? is the syntaxe the same for WinXP ?

I think you understood me wrong!!
The point of this thread is to make the wav file work at startup and not the other way around...
Oh yes !
Sorry, i'm tired !
Me, i search for disable the sound (just the sound) ... lol !
Your topic with registry key was that i search for tweak this HTC boot screen, without, i haven't find the correct key in registry.
Thank you !
Your registry, if it is always like the first message, is the same that there by defaut in my config (3.6 faman).
Verify if you have the two file included ... in your windows directory.
thx for ur infomation, same problems here, only a little noise heard.
i never thougt of its the problem of hv file, and I was using emeditor, i think there is something wrong with rgucomp.exe.
Same problem here too
i dont think its a good idea to edit default.hv directly, just becoz u will destory the strcture of the rom. (actually the two hv files are generated form several files). now i switch to the ways of bepe, its more assurance. if u want to modified the system core registry, use the "search fonction" of the "buildos+package_tools"
I've just flashed the O2 premium v2.0 rom to my artemis, and I love it, but I really dont like the animated splash screen.
I tried using the latest version of SplashScreen.exe to customise it, but at the three colour boot screen, the utility fails saying it cant connect to the device. This must be specific to SplashScreen.exe as other utilities flash the phone fine.
So, without that tool, how can I customise the animated start screen, as the \windows folder doesnt allow me to make changes to the files there. Alternatively, if someone can post a utility to flash to a different HTC animated logo that would be great. I'm sure in the past I've seen a very small HTC animated logo on a black background - if anyone has that ready to go with an installer, I'd be appreciative!
Thanks.

just replace the animated.gif in windows folder on your device...
jvc
I tried doing that, but I cant delete the original file - any ideas?
Thanks.
Startup Sound
just overwrite the existing one with your one and you're done.
BTW:
Anyone knows how to get the startup sound working with our Artemis ?
On my Hermes it's working perfect. When i set exactly the same values in HKLM\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation
- volumn and wavFile - as my Hermes and point to my soundfile (it's a wav my windows folder) - nothing happens.
As above, I cant delete the file in the windows folder, so I cant overwrite it either.
Anyway, to work around it, I just copied a .gif file into the windows folder (called it animated2.gif) and edited the registry setting to point to that file, and it fixed it. Bit of a clunky way to do it, but it works!

With the normal Microsoft tools it is not possible to overwrite the ROM files. But e.g. Total Commander can overwrite those files.

I was trying to change the startup/splash screens on my Samsung i760 with WM6. I found the file VerizonStartupAni.gif which is basicly an animated verizon logo that appears before the windows mobile splashscreen. I tried changing it to another animated gif but after some poking around its attributes are read only/hidden/system/in ROM. Using total Commander I tried to change these settings but they just reset right after. Is there anyway to disable the system from changing it back to default? I tried to replace it with the new file but keep getting the same write protected error, even if i name the new file with the same name. Perhaps there is a way to unlock the (in ROM) box. It appears in gray and doesn't allow me to alter it. Any help and suggestions would be awesome. Played around with it for 2 hours, even poked around regedit for anything useful with no luck. Maybe I missed something.
Try renaming the original file,
then copying the new file to the same location with the same name.
I made some custom animations and sounds that may work on your device. I configured them for the kaiser but the files should be in the same place.
Try the link in my signature and install the cab.
