i tried that but still has old splash screen. is there a step im not doing
Just to be sure, you are asking about the splash screen and not the boot animation. The splash screen is the very first image you see when your phone turns on. The boot animation is the animation you see after the splash screen as your phone is booting.

Also in some splash threads there now using the normal way of changing it to a pg75img.zip i believe thats the name of it but anyways to do it that way you have to be s-off read the op of the thread they usually put instructions in there on how to flash

I already changed the boot animation screen no problem, but I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the first screen you see on power up. (I am not sure what its called but it isn't the animated one) Its the white Tmobile My Touch screen on initial power up/reboot.
Thanks in advance.
Splash screen - and i have been asking about it also. The EVO link does NOT work - so don't mess with it.
Yep, changed my boot animation as well, but want to change the splash screen too.
Anyone know exactly how? Found instructions for the EVO, but ain't messing w/it till someone smarter that me can confirm the correct process.

Uncheck the fastboot and see if you get the point?
I had a ROM that changed my boot logo from the original HTC one... not the splash screen but the logo itself... How can I change it back, I already asked in General section and got no response so I hope someone here can help out. Thank you ahead.
Are you talking about the bootanimation that has Thunderbolt on it?

Splash screen is the first thing you see, your boot animation is your second, which one are you referring to?
BOLTED DOWN.....
Moved to q&a

So i just spent about 15 minutes researching this, and as far as the posts on XDA go, there is no tutorial, guide or instructions on doing this. Dev's have looked into it, but have gotten nowhere. HTC allows you to do this if you have the engineering bootloader, which you cannot get with the nexus. The engineering bootloader allows you to flash PARTS of an image instead of the whole thing. So, I am not saying it is impossible, but the information is not availabale on XDA.
The "Google" screen is not possible to change. But between Google and animation, like trinity kernels, it is fix in the kernel library. Only Morfic and few ppl actually know to do this.

there a way to change it from the gawd awful Samsung logo to anything else really? i am hoping i can match it to my Acer ICONIA Tab A501. i did a fair bit of searching and trolling these sub-forums and all people seem to talk about is the boot animation. i am talking about the Samsung logo when the phone is first powered on. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

i'm not talking about the boot animation. i'm talking about when the phone is first powered up u see the samsung logo i want to change that
If its anything like the vibrant, that is something that is baked into the kernel, you would have to roll your own.

Hello.. another noob here.... (sorry)
I've done as I've seen mentioned on here.... I've put one of the splash.zips (Fskull.zip) into both my /data/local folder And my /system/media folder... and renamed it bootanimation.zip... and I still get the "Samsung" logo... then the Ugly AT&T ball splash screen. NO CHANGE to boot up on restart or turning on.
I did see in /system/media folder there is a "bootsamsung.qmg" and a "bootsamsungloop.qmg"... if I rename them.... the Ugly AT&T ball screen is now blank.... with the same annoying boot sound... But still NO modded splash screen showing !?
Am I missing something ? Please help.... I would like to get rid of the "SAMSUNG" screen & the Ugly AT&T logo on start up !!
Phone is an AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note (SGH-I717)
Android 4.1.2 (rooted)
Thanks
Don :fingers-crossed:
You see the logo for 2 seconds really? Do you constantly reboot your phone to see your boot animations Lol ...good luck
™
The initial splash is in the bootloader, which is closed source and very dangerous to play around with just for a 2 second image.
The second image before the bootanimation is the kernel splash...with a custom kernel that's usually different.
As for the guy 2 posts above me....(domedew) You're on stock...you need a custom kernel to use a bootanimation.zip
Yo can however delete the boot sounds.
I'm having an issue where my splash screen for bootloader is loading up twice. I'm a layman with phone dev., so let me describe the issue and see if someone can help. When I turn on phone I see splash screen for ~3 seconds, then it goes to black for ~1 second, and back to splash screen for ~3 seconds before boot animation. When I load system from TWRP it goes to splash screen and stays there until I press power and then it goes to boot animation. My phone runs AOKP at around 700 mb/1.8mb.
My fear is that I've loaded a bootloader on top of a bootloader, or that I've loaded a ROM on top of a ROM. Something fishy is going on and I'm trying to figure out exactly what. If anyone has any particular insights into my scenario, please post!

Any idea how to get a seamless splash screen? I've tried flashing both .img and .zip in RUU, updated radio, updated hboot. Do I need to have Eng Hboot then maybe reflash as .zip in RUU?

I don't know what a seamless splash screen even is. I've never heard of it.

If your phone is booting and working don't mess with it. I don't get what your trying to say. Is the htc logo poping up twice and then it boots because I thought that was normal.

Being inexperienced as you said, I would avoid the ENG hboot.
But... if you had to.... flashing the ENG hboot with a custom splash would indeed give you a smooth boot.
But like I said, I'd advise against it. Your phone works as it should, just leave it.

ENG is no longer needed to flash a splash img, you just need to zip out of my Collections thread
