i was fumbling around with the hypercore kitchen and found a tool in a subfolder called "nb image tool". i was curious, since it suggested only a few simple clicks in order to create your own splash screen. so i flashed my creation but now i have TWO splash screens: one white HTC INNOVATION, and one OEM. the latter one can still be changed. but the first one seems to be branded into my device.
i found out that this tool was originally made for the himalaya which actually does have TWO splash screens. but i haven't found any hint how to reverse this **** again.
requesting immediate help, please!!!

Prophet has two splashscreens too! I think in your old situation they were identical. You can flash new splashscreens, but your old ones are replaced. So, if you don't have a picturefile of them....
BTW, most official ROM's contain the Vendor splashes.

Good to hear! BTW could you attach that original htc.nb file? I'm looking for it a while now. (That is, if it is not the old white 1st and blue clouded 2nd version).

it is not that white hct innovation screen. it looks as if this htc.nb file is either some kind of delete-splash for that white htc thingy or a suppression splash that just prevents that one from showing up making the "second" splash display the whole boot phase.
just use the ruu for the nbf-file or nb2nbf.exe for the htc.nb. for the latter you have to select "splash" for image name and change the start address manually to 9d000000, otherwise i will not work out.
let me know how it worked.
and a happy new year.

It did work, I get the impression that this file places a blackscreen as splashscreen. Now I'm looking for an up-to-date HTC screen.
Happy New Year to you too!
Thanks!

damn it!!! i forgot!!!
the nbf-file i sent you was my modified one, since i wanted a complete black boot screen. the htc.nb file is the original one. just make an nbf of it and flash it again. or let me know if i should provide you with the proper one.
cheers.
I did convert the HTC.nb to nk.nbf but it still blacks out the splashscreens (no big deal, even black is better then the ugly outdated originals). But if you could upload a nk.nbf containing the recent htc splash, I would be thankfull (again )

try this one. found it here on the forum. if you used the htc.nb before, it SHOULD display the second splash throughout the entire boot phase; at least it worked this way for me. it is (probably) the most recent htc splash in black. i don't know though. i don't care much about htc apps and stuff.
just report back, what you think.
cheerio.

Hey rondol1. I need a official Qtek splash screen. I would like to have a converted Qtek splash in nk.nbf format. I have bricked my device(and unbricked) when i try to flash my converted splash. I have included the splash screen.

i have used a qtek wm5 rom, but replaced the splash. i just extracted the rom and made a splash-only ruu. i hope it is the right one and will work for you.
just let me know how it went.
cheers.

Thanks, that was exactly what i was looking for. I asked for it because if i replace the splash and it failed again so i can recover to original splash.

Hi all, how can I remove from my HD2 a 2nd splash screen do to an old test of an PRESTIGE-X build that remain ?
I have make some task29, installed MAGLR and after some build of Android, i have reflashed via SD card the original stock 3.14.
But the 2nd splash remain unchanged!
What can I do for remove this? I have notice that the flash from SD installed only spash1 .....
Many tanks in advance.

You mean the one before MAGLDR or the one After booting into Android ?
No, before MAGLDR before. I have tested this build last april and from this test I have this 2nd spalsh customized .

Then consider your problem solved, just follow my posts in his thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=10239678
Nothing, the 2 splash remain also after your flash......
I can't seem to be able to find such "Second Splash" , There is only first , the second one is replaced with MAGLDR ..
But if you see http://www.prestige-x.com/Download.php
(this is the site of the build that I had tested....)
in description of two last build is declared:
This build replaces all splashscreens with Htc's Splash Screen inlcuding Splash 1 and Splash 2.
This is do to the fact that your first release change these splash and seems that any flash can change that.
Since it replaces the 2nd splash, It should've replaced MAGLDR 'cause Magldr does not replace your bootloader but instead it replaces the 2nd splash (the one with red written)
I can confirm that magldr replaced my second splash.
Care to post up a vid of your bootup?
Here the video.....
hmm, and you definately have magldr on there? it boots to android after where your clip ends? and/or if you hold power all the way through the bootup, it goes to the magldr menu? (it should)

Sorry for my mistake: if I install MAGLDR I haven't the 2nd screen, but I have it when reflash a win stock ROM. The video is related a WM stock ROM reflashed after MAGDLR.
wait, just so im sure what you're saying, , when you flash magldr, it dissapears, but when you re flash a stock rom, it comes back?

Yes, you are right. When I flash MAGLDR I don't have this flash, but after, when I flash a stock rom ( 3.14 ITA in my case) I have the PRESTIGE flash. I have make a task29 more times, and flash a stock 1.66 and after a 3.14 but I don't have the original splash!
Oh well, we couldn't remove the second splash before magldr,so I guess it makes no difference, heh.
Sorry to bump an old thread but ive got the same issue where i have the 2nd splash and cant get rid to sell the phone on, anyone had any luck removing this?

this thread should be ended but unlucky people exist again, ME!
I flashed the second splash R.G.D and it's ok, BUT when I flash other roms, like NGR, the second splash R.G.D still there and I don't want it anymore and I don't have the same pictures like in the custom ROMs.
Before I did this crap second splash was time when I flashed just 1 first splash both of them changed with the same picture! Now it is impossible, all the time I have to flash 2nd similar splash to the rom which I installed.
How make it work back like it was at the beginning, 1 FLASH change both 2 splash screens? HELP!

a few options come immediately to mind, , flash a stock rom, from sd card, which should remove both and replace it with a single carrier/htc splash *however* ive seen this not work, on occasion, for whatever reason,
the other is make an identical 1st and 2nd splash, flash them both, or make a blank 2nd splahs, or flash magldr, it lives in teh area where the 2nd splash goes, perhaps that will shift it.
No matter which rom I use, at the very start up I get the NRG splashscreen. Is there a way to change it?

Normally if you Reinstall stock ROM over SD the splash-screen will be set ass default.

I have the same problem with the nrg screen too. Even if I task29 it still shows. Which means that task29 does not work.
I have the wp7 in, and that is showing the nrg screen at first boot.
So how do we clean up the rom? As task 29 does'nt do what its supposed to do?

Thats because the splash screen isnt stored in section of nand that gets erased, the only part that gets erased is the rom data part.
If you want to change the nand you need to flash a stock rom or flash a new spalshscreen to splash 1 or splash 2 section.
there is plenty of info about this. Just use search and search topic titles for words "splash" and "splashscreen"
anyone find a way to change the splash image? i tried to use the method from the sensation.... but it failed lol any ideas?

I am a newb... is this different than bootanimation?
yeah, the splash image is the white screen with HTC in green, its the first thing you see when starting up, the boot animation is the 2nd one, in this case, its T-Mobile and an android blasting off (stock). I'm trying to change the first one.

haha yeah figured that out... what partition is our splash image in?
Anyone managed to change the Mi A3 splash screen? Tried with fastboot flash splash splash.img but the original image doesn't change.
Can someone send me the splash partition? I didn't backup :crying:
To dump the partition run as root: cat /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash > /sdcard/splash.img
Thanks

I'm trying to change it but after rebooting the device it changes it to the stock.
Please pm me in telegram then I will send you stock splash partition.
It's about 32MB and I can't upload it here.

I found some bitmaps inside the imagefv partition.
The partition is a signed UEFI PI Firmware Volume. I'm still trying to figure out how to recreate the partition image with new bitmaps.
