Now you did this on a Sprint Touch? In addition, will this work using Photoshop to save the files as 16bit R5 G6 B5 format?

1. Backup your existing .brn files

2. Create/find your image (any format is ok)
create your image with the correct proportions:
  • AL = 119 x 105
  • MH = 240 x 105
3. Create a 16 bit bitmap from the image
  • Open image with GIMP
  • Image -> Transform -> Flip Vertically
  • Save As -> Windows BPM image (.bmp) -> Save
  • Advanced Options -> 16 bits -> R5 G6 B5 -> Save
4. Modify bitmap file header
  • open .bmp image with your favorite hex editor
  • delete bytes 0x1E to 0x46
  • delete bytes 0x00 to 0x12
  • save as .brn file
5. Deploy
  • copy .brn to your device
  • using a tool like Resco File Explorer, copy the .brn into the windows directory
Here's mine (to go with my G.A.N.T. themes):


Get on it!
