I've used this tutorial
http://www.zahirkhan.com/android/tu...ustom-splash-screen-for-android-rooted-phones
and am getting till the SPLASH.IMG part(Step 6)....
but after that my phone simply stays to the battery charging state.....
so I boot into the bootloader myself with the power key + volume down and get the "downloading....." screen......
and with that, following the guide, in cmd when I enter "fastboot flash splash1 SPLASH.BMP" and press Enter;
it gets stuck at <waiting for device>....
Any Help?

1. Ace doesn't have a bootloader.
2. Fastboot doesn't work with the ace.
So instead of flashing it directly put it into the boot.img of your preferred rom and then flash it.

unpack the boot img
you will see somewhere
cooper.rle
then convert it to png
then choose a image of 320 x480 exact
otherwise not work
then name it to cooperconvert
to rle
then pack 6our kernel
and you have a splash

I tried booting various sense and aosp roms, but my phone won't boot past the flying 3d or any other boot animations. Can someone please help? I tried wiping everything. It worked at first but it doesn't now.
I think this belongs in the questions part of the thread.(Im sure a mod might move it) Other than that can you even do a Nandroid restore?

Ok in order for anyone to help you more could you please tell which hboot you have, also specify further about your problem. For example: does your phone just freeze at some point or does the bootscreen keep running and never gets past it or is it taking over the world or what?

Im asking because there has been alot of views on this and ppl just pass it up because its in the wrong section. Dont take offense to this plz. Im sure u knew this due to you have been a member since Oct. 2009

it keeps freezing at the flying 3d animatio.
I think you should re-post this in the questions and answers part of the thread and leave this one alone. Otherwise theres gonna be ppl that will "flame" you and say that we have a section for questions and answers. Technically of course it doesnt belong here anyways. Just re-post it over there too and for some reason ppl will be more willing to help you.
ok heres your fix
1-take the rom of your choice put in your sd card
2-then take boot.img out of your rom and recovery.img of your choice and place it in android-sdk/platform-tools
(rename recovery u have to recovery.img then place it in android-sdk/platform-tools)
3-if runing widows hold shift and right click then open with command prop
4-then reboot your phone into fastboot (make sure u have fastboot drivers installed)
5- then type this in command prop
fastboot flash boot boot.img
after its done type this
fastboot boot recovery.img
then it will take u into recovery then do all wipes and flash rom of your choice
and enjoy
hope this helps u

You can take the boot.img piece out that is not needed. Once you power on phone holding power and volume down, choose fastboot, connect usb, and just do fastboot boot recovery.img this will give you full access and when you flash the rom, it will install kernel and all necessary files.

I didn't think that was needed. What exactly does fastboot flash boot boot.img do?
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
There is a limitation with HTC's unlock, recovery does not have permission to write to the boot partition, this is where the kernel goes. What this means is that you can't flash a kernel through the normal recovery. Which also means that you can't flash a ROM that requires a custom kernel. There are two ways that I know of to work around this. One is to just flash the kernel(boot.img) from fastboot, the other, and easier way is to boot recovery from fastboot and just do everything from there.

My 3D is not yet rooted, but you should be able to flash everything you need without a computer. You will need Flash Image GUI, which is found in the market, or can be downloaded via the XDA post. It's JoeyKrim's program.
Here's a stickied thread, over in the Android Dev forum

I also edited the keylayout in my CM sources for recovery so that we can use the four hardware buttons efficiently, back button = back, home button = up, menu button = down, search button = select.
I did this because on the new CWM the layout is all messed up for our device

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (name chosen custom recovery... recovery.img)

I bet you're choosing recovery from hboot and u think that's what we mean by " fastboot boot recovery.img" yes/no? Like meangreenie said, u need a recovery image in the same folder as fasboot on your computer. Hook the phone up while in hboot, choose fastboot, cd to the folder that the recovery and fastboot are in and type fastboot boot recovery.img, and make sure the recovery that's in there is named recovery.img. if it doesn't work, post what it says in the command window

I have a problem with this. I tried ErfanGSI Rom, his Roms require the user to flash a kernel permissive patcher which can only be done through a custom recovery. End result is, I can't get it to boot, it goes into boot loop. Any way past that?

Yes. Use fastboot.
Here is what to do.
You may find these files. If the file I typed not in your gsi zip file... Skip it.
Ok so download a program called minimum adv and fastboot. And install it. It's about 5mb ig. Then open it.switch your galaxy a10s to fastboot mode [bootloader] [download mode] they are the same.
To do this switch the a10s off. Then hold both volume up and down buttons. Then keep holding them and connect USB. From PC to mobile. Keep holding both volume buttons untill it prompts you to go to download mode. You gotta unlock bootloader but I guess you already unlocked it so go to download mode and follow these instructions.
You may find system.img
Do this command in adv thing in PC
fastboot flash system LOCATION://OF/YOUR/SYSTEM.IMG
you may find vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vbmeta LOCATION://OF/YOUR/VBMETA.IMG
both of these guys are in the gsi zip coming form google.
Good luck
