No you will not need to run this when you flash to custom roms unless someone changes the initial splashed. As for as I know energy roms where the only ones which change the initial splashes.

2) It is flashed like a rom

3) Custom ROMS DO NOT include splash nbh's (well some do, but not many) so this would only really need to be done once. unless u go and flash the sprint rom again!

Hope this helps!

Doh mike beat me

thank you both...but i still cant find to dl spot on 2shared link? (other windows just pop up, very annoying) i did hit the download at the bottom but a gaming window pops up instead.

I would like to start using the stock splash screens from the 6.1 ROM however I am curious if I use this RUU if it will replace the Orange Windows Splash with the Green Windows 6.1 Splash screen right before it boots into windows........I am guessing YES however I would like to know from those of you who have indeed used this RUU....I am semi OCD so it might bother me to see a graphic saying I have WinMo 6.1 which contradicts what OS I really have.......I realize this IS A VERY TEDIOUS unimportant issue however any help would be appreciated so I don't regret flashing the stock splash screens.

Looks like there is a second initial splash. Weird....

************Update***********

Get the fix thanks to Metalmayhem below. So you know you will not hard reset your device. It returns the TP2 splash back to the original black Touch Pro 2 splashes.

so is this 1 different than metalmayhem? as in it fix the 2nd part 2 all black, dont know if i read it right an should flash this if its different

I flashed using the RUU provided by metalmayhem on the NEW Stock Sprint 6.5 ROM. Just make sure that your phone is HSPL unlocked and then connect the phone via activesync to your pc. Once you are connected via active sync run the RUU as you would any other flash utility......its very quick and only flashes the original black Sprint TP2 image instead of the White HTC splash. It will not replace the Windows\welcomehead.192.png image (The Orange Windows Splash Image)so if you want that replaced you will have to do that manually. It also keeps the animated yellow sprint logo. SO THE ONLY THING REPLACED IS THE WHITE HTC LOGO THATS IT!

THIS WILL NOT DELETE ANY OF YOUR DATA. ITS JUST FLASHING THE ORIGINAL TP2 SPLASH INSTEAD OF THE WHITE SPLASH. It never hurts to backup just in case something horrible goes wrong.....however this does not delete any data off the rom other then SPLASH IMAGE!

If this helps please thank me
