Is there a way to change the splash screen even with S-ON? I can't stand the plain white HTC.
Nope sorry.

On the thunderbolt it could be done via a fastboot with "fastboot flash splash1 splashimage.img" or something along those lines if I recall correctly....anyone given something like that a try?

Yes, that is how it's done. I can't comment on S-On but I haven't been able to get nbimg tool to work on 720x1280 res. No problem when I did my EVO 3D (obviously only 540x960). When I run it, it crashes (makes a splash.bmp.nb, just a little scared to try and flash it since i'm unsure).
can't wait for this either, i want my android pissing on the apple once again. sometimes i turn on my incredible just to see it. lmao
I'm guessing there is an issue with nbimg, where the .bmp has to be smaller than 2MB...

If you do get to playing around with it, post up your results, otherwise when I get home tomorrow I'll give manually flashing one a shot

do I just rename it and autoflash with hboot, or use the fastboot

Auto flash it with hboot after renaming it.

Is there any way to remove a custom splash screen? I have an Evo 3D, and instead of naming it PG86IMG.zip, in named it PG86IMS.zip. It worked but want to take it off.

Bump - Don't suppose anyone's found that stock screen? It's gonna be hard to take mine back for repair without it. Thanks a lot!
I was looking for the same thing. I had a problem with my phone yesterday and wanted to revert back to original. I wish that everyone that posted splashscreens would post the original stock one in their thread just in case something happens. I fixed the problem with my phone myself, but would still like to know the original splashscreen is there if I need it.
If you dl steeleH rom I think you can find it there. Its just renamed.

Just had a conversation with notsointeresting, he said he'll work on it for you. Should have it posted once he gets back from "vacation" on the 10th.
Notsointeresting is it possible for a splash screen of your mother exposing her breasts with my name written on them? Kidding.
Looks nice dude
all credit goes to original poster - all you ahve to do is swap the android-info.txt in the files with zips from those for the shift.

value could be a couple different things,to us:
1)downgrade if there was an explolit in older firmware
2)use it to sneek on the signed eng hboot by using that in the third step instead of an s-on ship hboot,then running an RUU with hboot removed to finish recovering the phone
id love to try it,but i dont have a linux machine and my linux skills are basically none

Yeah, I am looking forward to Revolutionary or someone to make it a one click routine. That would be nice.
Interesting. If I were to guess, I would say that HBOOT unlocks something in order to prep for a flash of a PH98IMG.zip ... when you intentionally brick the phone by messing with the flashable file you've left it in an unlocked state, which you can take advantage of after rebooting by directly copying to the raw partition a bootable image. Obviously some knowledge of the underlying phone hardware is needed in order to find, modify, or build from scratch this bootable image and finding the proper partition into which it needs to be copied -- the directions in the linked thread are for a different phone and different code and probably different partition names would be required.
This may not even work on the Rezound.
And, I should add, the potential to permanently and irrevocably brick your phone is quite high.
It might work with the signed eng hboot. I would try it if I had a backup device. Hell if someone has one that is in terrible condition that is going to do an insurance claim reguardless, I would ask them to try it out. Or have me help them try it.
I'm gonna give this a shot. Worse thing that happens is, I go and buy another Rezound (or something else).

Yeah- I remember how easy it was on the Incredible to root. Then on the Thunderbolt it was a little harder (for those who aren't comfortable with adp commands) and eventually a one-click process came up. Now, it would be great to have something like that on the Rezound and maybe, just maybe, be able to root without this big, ugly UNLOCKED / RE-LOCKED showing in H-Boot!

was just going to post this last night. good luck guys!
For anyone that wants to try it
Start with the OTA PH98IMG.zip
Then swap with our shipped PH98IMG.zip
So you should be trying to go from Hboot 2.11 to 2.10
Then when in linux, recover with the signed eng hboot image we have.
After that, I would recommend using fastboot to turn secure flag off (assuming you didn't brick and it worked)
Then flash a homemade PH98IMG.zip with everything except hboot in it.
What should be done first is identify which emmc block hboot is before you start this process.
woah... if we have a "signed" eng HBOOT why cant we just flash it over the one we already have?

Here are a few splash screens I made in some spare time I found. If you like one, take it, if you don't like these and you have something else in mind, post a pic and I'll make it for you as quickly as I can.
CDMA downloads are in the post 1
GSM downloads are in post 2
Pretty much all of these were kanged from other phone sections, I just resized and repacked for the EVO 3d cdma and gsm.
Thanks for looking!
More thanks
Thank you Knowledge561 for the tutorial
Thank you binux-project for the kind help and encouragement
Thank you XDA community for giving me a reason to make these
Instructions
You must be S-off or these wont work
rename downloaded file to PG86IMG.zip
put it on the root level of your sd card
pull your battery and then reinsert it
hold volume down+power until you see the hboot screen
hboot will check the file and ask if you want to update
press volume up to flash
enjoy your new custom splash screen
Here are the same splash screens for GSM

A gsm splash would be cool
Can this Radio updates work with ICS,so are they the latest?

Ill look into how to make them gsm compatible soon. Not sure what you mean by radio update, these will work with any radio on a cdma EVO 3d.
Super easy for gsm. Just replace android.info.txt for gsm users, overwriting the cdma android.txt
Dang, missing the one I wanted to convert, the all black HTC with quietly s off not listed in links.
For GSM u only have to edit the first line from:
modelid: PG8610000
To
modelid: PG8630000
Only the 1 into 3
And it works...

sorry im just a little confused. ive had multiple android devices all which have been rooted and not all of them have had the bootloader unlocked. now this is my first htc product so im not really familiar with s-off. but i bought this phone thinking there were going to be lots of devs and everything working on it and this has killed my plans . i know patience is a virtue . i was just curious. i mean droid razrs have plenty of roms available and they are still on a locked bootloader
It all has to do with the exploit used to root the device. HTC has to have an unlocked bootloader so that you can use the bootloader to write the root files to the system folder.

same way, let it off for awhile then try if it doesn't pull battery and then try, it works
And turn off fast boot in Settings/Power.
i ended up rebooting, and just holding the power + volume down. that worked for me
to answer the og poster
if you have an unlocked b/l you can flash a custom recovery img which allows you to then flash a root package in that recovery
there is no current working exploit manually root the stock rom otherwise
Hmm. I just got the blank email from HTC. I hadn't yet tried unlocking today, and received it after 9pm. I tried, but it was to no avail. I was hoping HTC was secretly sending out emails for those who had repeatedly tried, trying to help them out.
