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.

It's going to fail because the partitions are different.

Does anyone know how to change this? I'd like to change my boot (the first image you see when turning on the power) image, but can't figure out how to do it.

It's very Good,Thanks a lot.
Is there a tool for this or a way to adb a new one? I was able to do it on the G1, the mytouch and G2. HELP, I have searched and searched to no avail. I have to get rid of that boring splash screen that says Samsung Vibrant.

I looked in to this a little bit... in /mnt/.lfs there are images that look like they are the splash screen for all the models of the Galaxy S. I haven't actually tried changing them though
Many views and no replys!!!!!!!!!!!

camalot is right....there are images in /mnt/.lfs that suggests that those are the vibrant splash files...but i dont think no one has tried changing them...it seems that i can only see them via Root Explorer....i cant see them via Droid Explorer on my PC...u can try it at your own risk if you want....but make a Nandroid and have Odin ready.....just in case....lol

Im no help, I just wanted to add that I am interested in changing the splash screen as well. I know its gotta be possible because Ive seen it done with the DoW kernel where "vibrant" was replaced with a pretty sweet picture of a dragon. Just thought Id chime in.
Should be possible somehow... i added a rom to my friends captivate (i know different phone) and its splash screen was changed to go with the rom... so there SHOULD be a way to go in and change it... heres a link to a video of that rom, you'll see what im talking about..... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LnZSQsfVhFk
I realize it is possible. I am just wondering the steps needed to do it. Usually a image editing program is neede also.

The D.O.W. Kernals that Team Whiskey has charge the boot screens. You may want to speak with one of them to see how they work their magic there.

I think you're referring the the boot screen. He's talking about the splash screen that says VIBRANT in plain black and white.
The boot animation is different from the splash screen. The splash its the Samsung vibrant screen you see before the boot animation. You will probably have to chmod the directory before you can change anything in there
Sent via my Samsung Galaxy S
I have sent
a message to the creators of the D.O.W. and have had no luck receiving anything back.
Opening a DOW zip file has the directory as such:
kernel_update
redbend_ua (307kb)
zImage (5685kb)
system
bin
sqlite3 (24kb)
etc
vold.conf (1kb)
vold.fstab (2kb)
build.prop (3kb)
So it would appear that it's either zImage or redbend_ua.

No, I was talking about the splash screen, not the boot screen. Instead of having the black and white vibrant screen, they have a picture of a bomb going off on the DOW Kernals. Download it and check it out.

I heard it was somewhere in zImage
all
of my prior splash screen changes have been done through adb or fastboot. I am pretty sure I shouldn't have to mess with a zimage to change this.

I know that it was a lot easier on the HTC devices and that's what I'm coming from pesonally. But I'm actually pretty certain that it is compiled in the zImage file. Which would mean that it would have to be decompiled, edited and recompiled with your desired image. It sounds like a lot of work but I'm sure that once you get everything set up it would be a breeze!
hmm
So what would I use to open this zimage and edit it?

IDK what's up with it. It's made out of 15 PNGs and the desc.txt file but for some reason I get a black screen.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
The permissions are the same as the one that's in Viper's Rom.
unzip COLDH33t.zip and put the zip(Sprint_bootanimation inside in /system/customize/resource )using root explorer or adb
let me if you have any problems

have you try any others and do they work?
i'll mess around with it and see if i can fix it and i'll post it up later.
edit: try this one and let me know(same rules as the first one)
this may seem like dumb question, but did you change the perms? bootanim is rwxrr or chmod 744, same with downanim. hope this helps.
I'm having the same issue. I am new to android and I am thinking its a id10T error
Any advice on what i did wrong?

Thanks got it,
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
How did you changed that ?
I'm trying to find a way but didn't.
How to edit that file ?

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 suspected it was empty :/
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.
