Vega Bootscreens

Anybody care to share some bootscreens we can replace the ADVENT logo with?

The screen resolution is 1024x600.

How to replace your bootlogo:

Create and save your bootscreen as a PNG (if it is smaller than 1024x600, your bootscreen will be centered, transparency will result in the ANDROID boot glare effect)

1. Connect your Vega to your PC's usb.

2. Turn USB Debugging on in the Applications menu.

3. In command prompt / terminal, browse to the directory containing adb-windows.exe (included in Paul's MCR mod), type:

adb-windows pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk /framework-res.apk
This will grab framework-res.apk from your Vega and save it in the directory adb.exe is located. 4. Open framework-res.apk in WinRAR or similar and browse to /assets/images/ 5. Replace android-logo-mask.png with your bootscreen and save the apk in the same format, overwriting the original. 6. In your already open command prompt / terminal window type:
adb-windows remount

adb-windows shell rm /system/framework/framework-res.apk

adb-windows push framework-res.apk /system/framework/

7. Reboot your Vega.

My current bootscreen:

androidlogomask.png

If you want to make your new framework-res.apk smaller, you could delete the following files from /res/drawable/:

nvidia_wallpaper01.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper02.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper03.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper04.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper05.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper06.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper07.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual01.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual02.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual03.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual04.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual05.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual06.jpg

nvidia_wallpaper_dual07.jpg

As far as I can tell, it doesn't mess with the system at all.

Oh yeh, be careful to ensure you have enough space in the NAND, because if you don't, it won't copy, the original framework-res.apk will be screwed, ADB will stop and no programs will open, then you'll get a black screen when rebooting and will have to flash a stock rom. But you shouldn't really have many problems..

I'm not too fussed about changing the boot screen but I have just saved your image as my desktop img :) ty

Haha no problem, it's not great, just messing about in photoshop.

It's a pretty good wallpaper for the Vega even if it is just a mess about in photoshop. Especially appropriate for me since I have been playing a lot of old sega games since I discovered a wiimote works so well.

I removed the nVidia files, and removed the framework-res.apk from my Vega, but when pushing the file back, I got "insufficient space".

If anyone else gets this, here's my tip.

I had a poke around via adb shell and decided I wouldn't need the ringtones on the device, so:

At the Windows command prompt type

adb remount

adb shell
then at the # prompt, type:
 cd /system/media/ringtones

rm *.ogg

exit

Now try to push framework-res.apk back on to the Vega as the instructions above. You should have space now and it goes on fine :)

P.S. That looks a LOT nicer than > Advent

adb-windows pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk /framework-res.apk
Just to let you know for some reason it wouldn't pull framework-res.apk unless I omitted the target location. Weird! It would say xx kb transferred but nothing would copy over. I even did a search of my hdd for it! But
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk

worked for me (or adb-windows if you're using that) and copied it to the directory I was running adb from.

I've attached the default bootscreen for those who want to play.

should be

cd /system/media/audio/ringtones

just so any one else wishes to try.

Also looks so much better then having advent boot on screen.

A quick and nasty one - just how I like 'em! :)

At 11k the file size is smaller than the standard logo so you shouldn't need to delete anything to make room. (For those worried about deleting anything)

Please note I haven't tested this yet.

Images aren't displaying in the post for me.

Edit: Forget it they're there now. I'm liking the second one. Top marks!!

I think R8zer wanted the one with the android on it though!
