My New Splash Screen :D
 

Sup guys .. well after reading this thread for opening n closing sounds http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/ppc-6...se-sounds.html I went ahead and did everything per instructions. To change the sounds I had to go into HKLM\SOFTWARE\HTC\SlidingSound\ .. having said that once in the same HTC seccion of the registry I noticed this entry

then I cliked on the bottom section in red and got this

Then i was like hmmm.. I wonder if I could substitute the boring Sprint/HTCstartup animation with my own. To continue with the transformers theme I have going .. (opening n closing sounds/Today Theme) I decided to make my own gif animation.. yes u guys guessed it a transformers splash screen.

Here is the defualt Sprint Startup animation

Basically you do not have to do any registry editing at all.. all I did was replace/overwrite the default sprint startup animation file..with yours.

1. Most important step is that the file has to be named the same as the original sprint one so name your file the same like that >> SPCS_startup

2. Gif animation has to be 240x320

3. You have to remove the read-only property on the orignal Sprint Startup animation or else u wont be able to overwrite it.

Btw got transformers Opening N Closing .wav's here

awsome!!! I was looking for a way to do this, thank you!

Np. heh I think u can also..replace the very first sprint image u see when u first start up the mogul.. and then well the Startup animation is what I replaced.. Also pretty sure u can probly replace even the windows Mobile Image right before windows starts :P its just 7:22am.. and now am really going to bed :lol:

Sweet! I just might have to do this. Thanks for the info!

Nice work! How many frames did you have in you gif?

Nice job! I will have to mess around with this when I have a chance. :)

looks like original is 37 frames. his is 3

My suggestion is not to use pron for the splash screen. Imagine bringing it into a Sprint store for repair and pron is your start screen :)

"Uhhh....I have no idea how that got on there" :D

Virus! ;)

That's cool!
