Ok, this is getting annoying now... even this tool won't change my splash1 screen?!? No matter what I try I still have the same white/orange chinese unicom 3g logo.

Here are the steps I have taken so someone can see if they can work out what has made this logo 'write protected' (for want of a better description):

I Flashed the ICS update as in the guide, used the original unlocker.exe posted by flibblesan (which is the one was the chinese text) to root and unlock. After booting I decided I wanted to try to change the splash1 screen so I tried to flash on of the zip files from this thread: http://www.modaco.co...-splash-screen/ that didn't work so I actually tried each of them, none worked. (was it this that did it?)

After this I tried re-flashing the update via dload as I originally did only this time I used the newer english version of the unlocker.exe, still had the logo after all that. Next I messaged Geno to see if he had any ideas and he wrote this little tool but alas my logo still won't change.

Apart from the logo the phone works as expected.So what the heck have I done to make this logo un-removable? I am honestly baffled at this point.

Thanks for the tool. Has anyone got the original Huawei jpeg to flash?

How long should this take? It's been on the "changing, wait..." screen for about 5 mins. Can I safely disconnect?

Owww...if...I flash ICS then I must remember to flash the vendor file aswell then

[Cyda]

Still scratching my head on this. I've just copied the UPDATE.APP back over to my sdcard and flashed B926 yet again, then re-unlocked/rooted and then tried this logo changer again... but still no luck.

Seriously, there must be some way to update this splash logo... or at least some reason why the current one will not be over written.

[FrankieADZ]

did u see if adding the vendor file changed it?

Didn't manage to flash it - copied it to the dload folder but it just sat there on the progress bar for 10mins doing nothing before I pulled the battery. I figured a 1kb files should probably have finished by now. I'm also not sure how a 1kb file can contain a splash logo or extra apps.

[maritimesbob]

Not working for me. Do I run this application with the phone in recovery or with the phone booted up and running. I tried the latter, the application ran and then shut down. Rebooted but the Unicom remains.

I have ICS running just fine, rooted and with cwm installed.

[Cyda]

I've tried in booted normally and whilst in fastboot neither worked for me but that could be the freakishly unkillable unicom splash I seem to be stuck with and not the app itself.

Anyone else tried this?
