Will we ever get rid of the boot screen? - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Will we ever manage to get rid of the boot screen? Where it says dual core technology with the Moto symbol?
When I flashed CM7 on my Cappy, it replaced the entire boot screen. Is this possible for us?

---

The furture cm7 probably have it but until we get the easy issues fix I doubt any time soon. Plus we need a dev to do it which we only have a hand full if them for ATRIX. The revs we have now have been really busy handling the important mods that make the ATRIX fun

Think they are talking about the boot screen which comes before the boot animation.

Correct. The still image of the dual core technology.

Hi,
If you want to change the boot logo, you just fastboot flash logo logo.bin. It's mmcblk0p8.
The format is a constant string, 4 bytes, "SOL:" followed by 4 zero bytes, followed by 4 bytes for the width, 540, 4 bytes for the height 960, and the raw data of the image. Each pixel is 2 bytes, it's 565 format.
save a png as 540x960 called logo.png
$ convert -depth 8 logo.png rgb:logo.raw
$ ./rgb2565 < logo.raw > temp.bin
$ cat logo-heaader.bin temp.bin > logo.bin
$ sudo ./moto-fastboot flash logo logo.bin
Here is the source to rgb2565:

You're welcome!
I updated my zoomquilt 2 boot animation to use this, see sig.
Cheers!
