-----PROJECT ABANDONED-----
I no longer have time to maintain this. If any one wants to adapt off of my work, feel free. Just be sure to give credit
I have made a guide/application to make it very easy to make and flash a splash screen
THIS IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH WINDOWS!!!!
Requirements -
A Windows Computer Running Windows XP or Later
Attached Zip Package
A 480*800 bmp image you want to make your new splash screen
If you are unsure of the screen resolution of your device, check out this link...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Android_devices

did you try converting an img to a bmp or a bmp to an img?
EDIT:just realized i accidentally set it to 400*800 instead of 480*800
should work with the new image size

bmp to img. When I flashed it, the letters of the image were overlapped like 10 times on the screen.

Hello,
I am about to write about it on my blog (with a backlink to this post and credits to you of course), and I am curious about whether this batch script is exclusively meant for myTouch 4G or will it work for any Android device? (Of course only provided that the bitmap's resolution matches the screen resolution of the device)

For conversion to an img file (to make a splash screen), it should work for any device)
For conversion to an bmp file (to get an image from a splash screen) it should only work for devices whose dimensions match (480*800)
EDIT:if you have any dimensions/devices that you img to bmp conversion for, i would be more than happy to edit it

no problem. if that doesnt work, try changing the image. i know that for some reason, i occasionally run into a bmp file that causes nbimg to just shut down. i dont know why but as soon as i use a different image it fixes itself.

[TOOL] EZ Splash Screen Flasher and Image Converter>>Converts jpg, png and bmp files
This is a simple tool/script used to convert .jpg .png and .bmp files into the format used for the splash screen on your device. This can also be used to make a copy of your current splash screen or convert a splash screen image into a .png for you to edit. You can also flash the new image using this.
(Currently this has been confirmed working on the HTC devices below)
This is my first attempt at a script. With that being said...Please leave your feedback and ideas for possible updates or any issues. I also understand that there might be other tools like this on the forum but the one I found here didn't work on Windows XP. Plus I was wanting to learn a little about scripts and give people another EZ way to mod their device. There are some things I would like to add and a few little bugs. If some people like this I will make a updated version with more things and options. All the methods and things used in this zip can be found here on XDA. I just packaged them up and did the script.
I found most of the information for the script HERE and of coarse have learned tons in my time here on XDA, so much thanks to everyone here!!
Thanks to Iriscience and the links in his thread for the conversion tools.
And also option94 for his help.
The flash/backup splash option should work for any HTC devices that use a 480x800 splash screen but has been confirmed working with the MT4G, G2, EVO.
REQUIREMENTS
1. PC with Windows XP or better
2. Rooted HTC device with S=OFF and Eng Hboot (if only S=Off you can use Terminal Emulator method below for flash)
3. 480 X 800 png, jpg or bmp image
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Download the attached zip by clicking the rotating skull and then unzip
it to the desktop of your Windows PC.
2. Create or find the 480x800 image you want for your splash screen.
3. Go into the "Splash Flasher" folder you unzipped and place your image
in the "place-image-here" folder.
4. Click on the "CLICK-HERE.bat" and follow the on screen instructions.
NOTE: At this time this does not support having more than one of the
same image type in the "place-image-here" folder when converting and flashing.
Ie: You cant have more than 1 jpg, bmp, png or img in the folder at the same time.
You can have multiple images as long as they are not the same image type.

Reserved for images
I would like to send out a big thanks to all the people here on XDA that have contributed to this collection. There are way to many to try and name. If you see your splash screen here, Thank you!!.
I was browsing the forums and came across a few splash screens that I liked and that were requested, so thought I would add them here for the Glacier family to enjoy.
As I collect more I will put links to the threads I have gotten them from so you can give thanks if you like.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Click on the image you like (it should open in a new window)
2. Right click on the image in the new window and choose "Save Picture As"
3. You can save it wherever you want (I suggest Desktop\Splash Flasher\place-image-here folder)
4. Convert your image to splash .img format and flash it using my script or the Terminal Emulator method I posted below.
IF you cant use the Splash Flasher/Converter, let me know and I can change any image to the correct splash .img format and post it up for you..

Here is how to flash a new splash screen image to your phone using Terminal emulator. Please keep in mind that as with any mod you can damage your phone beyond repair if done incorrectly.
1. Rename your 480x800 .img file to custom.img and move it to your sdcard.
2.Open Terminal Emulator and type "su" to get a #
3.Then type this exactly as it appears and hit enter. Make sure not to make any mistakes!!!
Code:
dd if=/mnt/sdcard/custom.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19
It should show you that the file has transfered. You can now back out of terminal emulator and reboot your phone to see the new splash screen.

Just remove the .zip from the name on the attatchments below and they are ready to flash.
Very nice... reminds me a little of the Splash Creator for the G1 that I use to make Splash Images for my wife's MT3G-Slide, but the nice added feature of flashing it as well.
Thanks for this, I wondered how to convert jpg/png to IMG files. Now to try and figure out photoshop.
I did a quick test of a file and it worked GREAT.

Awesome!
Just to help with clarity, the description says 480x800 (correct I think?), the requirements say 640x800, and the steps say 640x480. Unless I'm missing something.

If you try the wrong size the image won't come out right when you flash it. Other than that it wont mess up your phone or anything. I will make the changes. Thanks

quick question...was the script supposed to reboot the phone out of fastboot?
i flashed a few different screens and it never rebooted the phone out of fastboot
edit: forgot to say thanks a ton for this...been wanting to change that screen just most of the instructions were a little too overly complicated

I serendipitously discovered a PC utility for creating boot animations from GIF files. Navigate to this thread by Blufenix. It's self explanatory; just download the zip, extract, and run the Jar file.
Seems to work well. I used it to create this lovely Melanie Iglesias boot animation (attached, untested) :good:.
This is great! Check out the bootanimation I just made from Ace Ventura for my EVO 4G. Resolution 480x800. Feel free to use it yourself. Rename and place in the correct directory on your phone. Have fun!

The gif you provided is corrupted (specifically the first frame). I suggest you find a different source for this animation, or try to repair the gif with a tool like gifsicle, imagemagick, or some online gif editor. I tried to repair the gif myself (http://i.imgur.com/iLUXgw8.gif), but it looks bad (the first frame is a bit grainy), you can use it if you want, but I'm sure there is a better way to repair it.
jeffreylin_ said:
Ah, I see. Perhaps in the future you should implement a feature that notifies if the .gif is corrupted. I'll be using your image, it seems okay to me.
Oh, and how would one know if a gif is corrupted?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, I should include that feature. This is the first time I've seen a gif corrupted in this way, so I didn't know what to look for until now.
I discovered that the gif was corrupted by making my program skip processing of the first frame (which made it run fine). This got me suspicious, so I opened the gif in an editor and saved it again. The other frames remained identical, but the first frame changed.
Thanks for using my program, and if you need anything else just let me know!
jeffreylin_ said:
Also, it seems that my phone is 480 by 800, not the other way around. When this was made into a boot animation, the program appears to have rotated the frames and then converted it. So on my phone it is horizontal. Just thought you might want to know.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, that is an intended feature (I should probably make that more obvious with some kind of documentation). If the image is wider than it is tall, is will render in landscape. If you don't want that, you can try the "center frame" option. It will try to intelligently crop the sides of the image to fit your screen correctly, and render it right-side-up.
You should make more detailed instructions like
1. download
2. extract
3.open command window where you extracted (shift+ right click, open command window here)
4. type: "java -jar gif2boot.jar"
5. follow instructions on screen

Don't know what do you mean by "splashscreen changer" but if you are talking about WP7.X - Splash screen consists of specially compressed bmp file in XIP - oemlogo.bm_ and the same but not compressed file in OEM - mo_logo.bmp, Also it's possible to use third file - also regular bmp called mologo.bmp. Changing regular bmp is easy - just to copy them to \Windows of your phone. Compressed bmp should be cooked in. If you change only uncompressed files - you get first stock bootlogo, than custom one on boot - this sucks.
Loading screen is a png resource inside shellFrame.dll. If you want to change it - the correct way is to create custom mui - shellFrame.dll.XXXX.mui (XXXX - your default booting lang) with only modified windowsphone logo and copy it into \Windows of your phone.
Reboot is required to see your attempts working.

Heya, thank you for this info,
I changed "mo_logo.bmp" (I already change mologo.png with windowsphonehacker.com/articles/experimental_splash_changer-04-25-12 )
I can see the "HTC-Logo", but I want to replace it with my picture.
I can't find "shellFrame.dll" on my phone.

I told you - it's in XIP. That means - it should be cooked in while building the rom image. Do you know how to cook custom roms? If not - than it's nothing to discuss - you won't be able to change logo completely. Only the second part of it's appearance.
ChrisX930 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's in Windows folder of the phone and it's hidden. You will hardly be able to copy it even if you see it.
So - you should get this file from ready-to-cook build uploaded in developer's thread and modify it with any resource editor.
If you unlock your bootloader, it will put an annoying warning message instead of the usual greeting screen when you first boot up.
If you want to restore to stock logo screen, go to Hashbang173's thread.
If you want to restore your custom greeting, follow the steps below:
1. Download the XT1575-logo-new-9-14-15.zip file from Hashbang173's thread and extract the logo.bin file.
2. Connect your phone to your computer. Then run this:
Code:
adb shell su -c “dd if=/dev/block/platform/f9824900.sdhci/by-name/clogo of=/sdcard/clogo.bmp”
3. Then you can use a file browser app, go to your sdcard, and email the clogo.bmp to yourself. This clogo.bmp is your original custom greeting screen. You can actually customize that file if you want a different picture.
4. Next, download the boot logo maker by caitsith2.
5. Run the logo maker and load the logo.bin from hashbang173 that you downloaded at the beginning.
6. Replace the logo-boot and logo-unlocked image with your clogo.bmp file.
7. Save the project in the boot logo maker. It will create a flashable zip file.
8. Extract the new logo.bin from that new zip, then flash it via fastboot (replace /path/to/logo.bin with the actual path to the new logo.bin you just extracted):
Code:
fastboot flash logo /path/to/logo.bin
I've uploaded a template logo.bmp file that you can edit and use for the moto maker to make your own custom greeting. If you want to make your own, skip step 2, and use the uploaded logo.bmp to edit as step 3. Dimensions for your custom image needs to be 1440x2560 pixels.
Credit
@Hashbang173 for creating the original logo restore.
@caitsith2 for the logo maker tool.
@vnphantom for figuring out how to retrieve your custom boot screen.
Thank you for this!

Sure. Simply make an image to replace it. I'm assuming any file format would work, but the one pulled from the phone was a BMP file with dimensions 1440x2560 pixels.

I am using this tool to create custom logos. You can also fully customize the battery charger and bootloader images (like the android with his belly open).
For the logo file I'm saving them as 1400x2560 24bit .png files. (but in the tool you can see the resolution for the other types.
1) Open the logo.bin from this thread.
2)Replace whichever images you want
3) Save as zip
4) take the bin file from the zip and flash it with fastboot... fastboot flash logo mylogo.bin

Mine worked at 191K. I read that the reason the default logo screens are mostly one color is to reduce size. So going with a circle of detail in the middle of rectangle of one color can help.

I guess that's why it was giving me issues, since I am not using a one color image. I just re-sized one of the icons in the picture and reduced the image to the same 85kb and it wont work again. Even by reducing it at 74kb. Ill attach the image in case you want to take a look at it

Your dimensions were off. I simply stretched it out to the dimensions mentioned earlier. I've edited the OP to reflect dimensions for custom images.
When I pulled the logo, I saved the files as .png... and that's how I save my edits. .png is better at stretching/shrinking and not looking bad. My logo.bin file was 2.43/MB and had no problem..
Plus, I use paint.net to edit... it's free and you can do a lot of stuff with it.. .
Anyone willing to make a video of how to??

Decided to recycle an image I've been using since the HTC Vision days. Feel free to use it, just remember that I had to upload it in .jpg format.
Finally decided to root my phone and this was one of the first things i had to do.
I'm a huge kindgom hearts fan and FF7 fan so i had to get cloud as my boot image, after some snooping this is what i came up with. Feel free to use

I guess that's why it was giving me issues, since I am not using a one color image. I just re-sized one of the icons in the picture and reduced the image to the same 85kb and it wont work again. Even by reducing it at 74kb. Ill attach the image in case you want to take a look at it

I had the same thing happen when I stretched the image. I had to just leave the image centered. If you stretch it size of image increases and may be too big. I saved in .bmp, but png worked as well. Good luck.

Okily dokily. Here is how it worked for me using Photoshop.
Open a new image 1440 pixels X 2560 pixels, resolution 96px/in
Paste the image in, make changes etc. Make sure the image takes up all the room you want. You don't want to stretch it later.
Go to save as and choose jpeg.
Image options should pull up. Choose low quality. If it is over 100K use the slider to lower it even more. I'm not sure exectly where the cutoff is, but mine worked at 85.1k
