How to: Replace WM Splash/Boot Screen

[Haggard]

On a related note, on the Sprint Touch it's also pretty easy to change (or disable) the startup animation that plays before the splash...the one that shows the glowing Sprint Logo?

Go To:

HLKM\Software\HTC\StartUpAnimation\

You'll find several keys there you can play with including "Enabled" (switch to 1 or 0 based on your preference). If you keep it enabled you can use the key "GIFFile" to change the Gif used (although I simply named my animation "SPCS_startup.gif" and copied overed the original to make sure there weren't any gotcha's along the way).

There's also a "DelayPerFrame" key and a ""WAVFile" key to help you customized it even more.

After wasting DAYS of my life creating several differnent anims and sounds...I decided I liked getting to my Today screen as fast as possible and s-canned it all opting to disable it completely. Doh!
