Rom cooking question

[patheticpuma]

hey everyone i am hoping i can get some help with this. I have been toying around with diamond/touch pro2 kitchens for a while and have what i feel are some pretty nice, stable roms. I intend on releasing them since after my newest tweaks i am no longer considering them beta. One thing I am having trouble with is how do i cook my own custom welcomhead.192.png into the rom? I have been searching to no avail. All help is appreciated.

I could be crazy but I think you just make the image in the correct size, make sure it has the correct filename (remember the e in welcome lol), and stick it in the \Windows folder. The phone should automatically load it. I'm lazy to search but the path to it is somewhere in the registry I believe.

thats how ive been doing it after the rom is flashed, i am trying to do it from the kitchen so my splash screen is part of the nbh file.

I gotta be honest, never cooked a rom. But I can google pretty good :P This looks like what you're looking for, but if not... my bad.

All you have to do is make an OEM EXT package for the welcomehead.192.png

What I just do with it is I drop the welcomehead.192.png into my personal OEM package that I made for myself which includes all of my personal reg tweaks, provision files, and other misc files.

Btw which kitchen are you using?

That link isn't for incorporating welcomehead.192.png into a ROM. Thats instructions for the 1st splash screen you'd see when starting a device, which by the way can be flashed separatly from your main ROM.

My bad, I shoulda noticed the difference. Thanks for clearing it up. I'm curious myself, what's a good tutorial link to follow about OEM/EXT packages?
