[TOOL] Easy One Click Splash Converter and Flasher-Kpkimmel-Gerbil - HTC EVO 3D

Hello folks, made this for myself and decided to share it.
-download the file HERE
-extract anywhere, doesn't matter because adb and fastboot files are included
-place your .bmp image in the extracted folder and rename it to splash.bmp (not splash.bmp.bmp)
-click the clickhere.bat, then click return (or any button to continue) when it says and it will do its thing. That simple. Thanks
-if you have a jpg or other nefarious file formats and need to convert to bmp just download GIMP, its free and open your image, then save as, chose extension .bmp and save.
-This will automatically resize the image to what it needs to be, but if you want to preview what it will look like, open your image in microsoft paint, chose resize, then click pixels, then uncheck box that says "maintain aspect ratio", then in box one chose 540, then box two input 960, then done and that is exaclty what your splash screen will look like.
Troubleshooting**********
If you get "permission denied" when flashing you need to download this file here, rename it to PG86IMG.ZIP (NOT PG86IMG.ZIP.ZIP), put on root of your sdcard, reboot into bootloader and flash. Its an engineering hboot for extended flashboot commands. After flashing reboot phone and try the above process again and it will work. Thanks.

easiest way is to open the pic in paint, resize to 640*960 and see how it looks, because that is exaclty how it will look on your phone...regardless this app will reside the pic to phone...

Is this for up and down animations/splash screens?

its not, its for the screen you first see when you boot up your phone, called the splash screen. (the one that says "HTC") all white....yeah replaces that one...

Youre gonna want 540x960 and a 24bit BMP

I'm no android dev but I have some batch skills. I took the liberty of making some modifications to your bat file to make it a bit cleaner as well as do some basic error checking (making sure the .bmp file exists and making sure the converted file is created)... hope you don't mind. I've pasted the modified code below
@echo off
dir /b %~dp0 | findstr /i /x splash.bmp
if %errorlevel% neq 0 goto nobmp
nbimg -F splash.bmp -w 540 -h 960
echo.
rename splash.bmp.nb splash.img
REM check to assure file converted properly
dir /b %~dp0 | findstr /i /x splash.img
if %errorlevel% neq 0 goto convertfail
REM wait 5 Seconds for conversion
ping 10.10.10.10 -n 1 -w 5000 >nul
adb reboot bootloader
cls
echo when in bootloader, press any key to continue
pause >nul
fastboot devices
echo if your device is listed hit enter
pause >nul
fastboot flash splash1 splash.img
fastboot reboot
exit
:nobmp
cls
color 4f
Echo splash.bmp file not found. Please assure file is in place and named properly then try again.
Pause
Exit
:convertfail
cls
color 4f
Echo Your image was not properly converted, please try again
pause
Exit

trust me, just resizing the image looks like crap(squished or stretched)....if you do it before hand it works a ton better and looks a lot nicer....
32-bit BMPs don't tend to work well with nbimg
I have been making these left and right, believe me resize before or crop down to the part of the image you want and then use nbimg to finish up.

Simply converting an image to fit specifications if you don't have a high res source to begin with won't work well..
