animated boot screens(like htc touch) inquiry

da1stprince · #1 (**permalink**) 11-18-2007, 02:32 PM

is there any way i can get the animated "sprint ahead" logo and gif on my 6700? i love the way it starts up and i think this would complete my wm6 rom nicely... i've searched around these forums but have yet to see animated gifs for a startup screen like the mogul or touch units for our apache's ... can it be done? or modified to work perhaps?

yes it is...it reads : "sprint ahead" with animated logos and powered by sprintspeed after that (also animated). Here is a video from youtube to display the startup of the touch. http://youtube.com/watch?v=VpQv0nR4EIU At about 2:30 min into the video the startup logos are displayed.

No, it can not be done. For one thing, the bootsplash on Apache is not a .gif.

i am sure that there is a way to get this to work....we can manipulate and break down roms, touch applications(ala "touchflo") emulate the iphone and some think it's impossible to get an animated bootscreen for the apache?...c'mon dig deeper...it is very possible and i'm sure the answers will be revealed soon!!

"it can't be done", meaning it's impossible? if the apache splash is not a gif, can that image be animated in some way in some kind of format that the apache is happy with? like fla or swf? just throwing random guesses out there...i have no idea what format the bootsplash file is or if other formats are availible

From the look of it it is the same static boot screen, but they have inserted an animation of some sort RIGHT before the WM splash screen. I suspect this is just a time wasting ad on and that loading has actually completed by this time.
