How to change splash (boot) screens in WM2005 ? - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 ROM Development

Hello,
In WM2003 you could simply put the splash1.nbf & splash2.nbf in the windows directory to have new startup screens.
For WM2005 this seems more diffictult.
Anyone a fast & easy solution ?
Thanks

BootScreens change and Hard Reset ....

Hello,
I create new boot screens with nb_image_converter and change my boot screens with the tool XDA2_Bootimage_Changer.
It works fine !
I do a hard reset (because of an bad application), and the customize boot screens are always present...
How is it possible to keep files after an hard reset...??? I don't understand. Can somebody explain to me ?
Thanks,
Garou
Happy of is QTek2020 and searching information of GPS module
well a hardreset puts the device back in the default settings deffined by the rom you can have stuff reinstalled after an hardreset by putting it in the extented rom
The strange thing it's not in rom !!
Hello,
Sorry for my english, you don't understand me...
the files is in my windows folder, not in rom file (and not in extended rom).
When i do a hard reset the boot screens that i do stay, the default screens don't come back...
i find that strange...
If we put files in \windows and har reset XDAII, these files must desapear....
Any explication ?
thanks, garou

Pocket IE from 2003se

Hello all,
Has anyone managed to port Pocket IE from 2003se on the MDA/XDAII ?
I can find the file on my MDAIII (iexplore.exe) but can't copy it because it's in rom. Can someone suggest a work-around?
Does anyone know if that file works on an MDAII ?
The cruddy screen on the III is enough to make you sick. The "one column" functionality of PIE 2003se is all I need for nivana with the good old MDAII (now that you have solved the landscape/portrait mode issue).
Cheers,
Brad

Hi Brad!
I extracted the files from the SE ROM with iexplore.exe but it isn't enough to overwrite the old .exe. It doesn't work. I saw it needs more files for eample some .dll-s. I tried to view iexplore.exe and I found a reference for 4 .dll files. After that I copied the 4 files to the windows folder and I got an error message again, that iexplore needs something else.
So these were my tryings.
Temporarily that's all I know.
If anybody has any idea about that I would be glad.
Thank you for all.
BRAD, if you need the extracted Windows? folder I put it somewhere to an ftp, maybe. And then you can try to resolve this problem also.

Animated StartUp screens possible for Prophet?

I found some possible ways to get a animated startup screen on Artemis, Hermes, Trinity and Elf, but what is with them for our Prophet?
Can anybody get them working? I tried some but without success!
Try these links for more information:

yes it is possible, but I didn't worked it out fully.
it worked when I flashed prophet with a cooked rom that used initial leaked dump(sys and oem) of Touch.
device booted till startup animation and stops at welcomehead.
It prove that its possible on prophet also. However floating cab/oem-packs never worked.
evo 8 has a start up animation
it works , but I don't use it because it just make the reboot takes longer.
hma4 > Where is the OEM Pack how is working you use ?
Good night
Yeah, i want the OEM-/SYS-Package for this, too!
yeah
i'm interested too!!! can someone upload some progz or animations or an how-to make it? Thank you
KEN
I will try to include that functionnality to my BootScreen changer tool (see my signature).
An update is coming within 2 days max.
I would like to have that "shiny" on my phone aswell
I'm sure the hardcore rom cooks don't use it... but it would be a nice addition...
see if you tell us how to do it hma4 or gullum, then the people have to wait extra seconds on boot time but add some "shiny stuff" to their PDA phones.
I've extracted the needed files and one registry path (with some sub-entries) and integrated them into my german Prophet Touch IX, flashed it and nothing apeared!
It seems that there must be more than I've found!
i know i'm not a genious in this stuff, but isn't there like a DLL needed to actually get those animations going... isn't there a little secret file you need to get it going...
i cant find out how to make it work... can someone tell me how to do such thing? thank you so much
man I would love to have an animated today screen... that would be awesome.
Hey,
Yes, you can have an animated Today screen for your PPC. There's one by Gigabyte and it's really awesome! Search for it and I'm sure that you'll find it.
kiwi992.
We're searching for a possible way to integrate an animated bootscreen and not an animated today screen!
EVO8EN has it... so i'd guess rip it out of that rom or just plainly ask the cook...
any update on this?
ok i seem to have found all the files... you need a couple more files than only the one file in the cab...
so it seems...
StartupAnimationEngine.dll (the engine to have the startup animation)
(i'm figuring out if this DLL needs to be added to the drivers list inside the registry)
PLAYSND.dll (seems to have a function to add startup sounds)
Htc_Lib.dll (used instead or aside of HTCUtil.dll i'm not sure...)
added this one to registry at drivers... it doesn't hurt my prophet... so i'm leaving it there...
Engine.Dll (i do not have the foggiest idea what the **** this file is for...)
these files are pointed out in some artemis startup animation thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311357&page=13&p=1317509
the registry keys to activate it should be:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"GIFFile"="\\windows\\animated.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"WAVFile"="\\windows\\startup.wav"
"Volumn"=dword:0x50
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"GIFFile"="\\windows\\animated.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\HtcInit]
"Prefix"="HTC"
"Dll"="Htc_Lib.dll"
"Order"=dword:0
!!! verry important.... !!! i've added a HTCinit2 key so i didn't DELETE the HTCUtil.dll driver initialisation... just because i'm scared i'll f**kup my prophet...
use these settings and files at own risk...!!
(nothing happened when i used these files but you never know...)
HUZAAAH it works now...
f**k me!!! it works...!!! just edited registry... with the setting i really didn't want (the scared to make my prophet fubar part...)
it was the files i mentioned... it was the registry i mentioned...
so:
these files should be in your windows directory (on your pda that is... )
StartupAnimationEngine.dll
PLAYSND.dll
Htc_Lib.dll
HTCUtil.dll
Engine.Dll
regedit these settings:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"GIFFile"="\\windows\\animated.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"WAVFile"="\\windows\\startup.wav"
"Volumn"=dword:0x50
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\StartupAnimation]
"GIFFile"="\\windows\\animated.gif"
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\HtcInit]
"Prefix"="HTC"
"Dll"="Htc_Lib.dll"
"Order"=dword:0
however i did make another regedit but i don't know weither it's needed or not...
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\StartupAnimationEngine]
"Dll"="StartupAnimationEngine.dll"
in any way these are my settings and they work...
FOUND A PROBLEM!! if you have a WAV file to play at startup my sounds stop working... no rings, no mp3, nothing!!
