Guest sc0user_75 Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Jeez, IMO that's a bit of a mess. ;) I see loads of people are using S2U2. Can somebody explain to me what the point is? Do you lot really have your devices sitting there locked, but with the screen on? Nope. But good thing is when you press the screen on button the whole screen lights up unlike the default lock, and you can easily see the time, calender entries, missed calls etc. Oh and it looks flash too :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly enough, though, my phone does that too - I just press the button on the side of the device, and it's all there. ;) Oh and it looks flash too :( Ahah, that's enough justification for me. :D :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cudix Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 (edited) no i do not mean windows spash ... the device boots up and we got one spash screen then in my case i have got htc animation for 2 seconds and then comes the windows splash screen. i managed to changed the 1st one and the windows one too. i am thinking ig i can change the htc animation/splash screen as well ? cudix Edited November 1, 2007 by cudix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mandt Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 Ah so you have three splash screens? Never had to do that one myself, but you say it's animated which makes me think it's a .gif file, trawl through your \Windows directory to find it, if so you can probably just overwite it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mandt Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 Vario III with stock T-Mo ROM for me. Like I said look through \Windows for the image to see if you can overwrite it. I only have two splashes so I really don't know / can't investigate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest scottt Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 There should be a file called "Animated.gif" replace this with a file of your own. I dont have the animated screen but seen someone else talking about it on another forum, I also belive you can download a cab to give you the animated screen or you can turn it off with a reg hack.

Guest mishk Posted November 2, 2007 Report Share Posted November 2, 2007 It's easier if I direct you to this thread: MoDaCo-Boot-Splash-for-Kaiser Download the attached file Extract the zip and replace the .nbh file with the one attached here Kaiser_HTC_Black_splash.zip Follow the instructions in the MoDaCo splash thread to get your new splash Can't seem to get this to work. Says something like i need to run some program and then the file...any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in advance, Mish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mandt Posted November 5, 2007 Report Share Posted November 5, 2007 Done some digging around, this seems to be the method for disabling the startup animation, although untested by myself so do this at your own risk etc To disable the startup animation change the following registry value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\Enabled = 0 to restore set it back to 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried getting it working on my VIII and it just doesnt work. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\Enabled = 1 (0x1) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\GIFFile = \windows\Animated.gif HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\StartupAnimation\Priority = 200 (0xC8) Are there any other registry settings I am missing? I have the aforementioned gif file in the windows dir which is a 240x320 animated .gif file. all info appreciated. Russ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mandt Posted November 7, 2007 Report Share Posted November 7, 2007 As I said untested by myself, I was just browsing around and came across the tweak..... guess you can't easily enable it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest elDeeJay Posted November 28, 2007 Report Share Posted November 28, 2007 T-Mobile splash screen replaced with black HTC design I found on the web Do yo mean the white fuzzy red-lined dotted mess that shows when the device is first powered up? I'd love to know how to get rid of that as its hideous! T-Mobile and MDA logos under the screen have also been removed Do you mind me asking how you did this? Looks like mine are printed directly onto the handset - how did you remove them without leaving any after-marks? Sorry if this has been asked elsewhere - haven't gone right through the thread yet.

Guest xonix Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 S2U2 is a pretty nifty add on but i wished it could have an option for vertical slide action as its more ergonomic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest paradigm2200 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Right, here's my set-up. SPB Pocket Plus, with HTC Home in the first tab. pRSSReader Today plugin, rotating through new news items. phoneAlarm at the bottom with custom skin. Connections tab with most used connection stuff... Applications Tab - Self explanatory rlly... Settings Tab - All the useful settings options, etc... And of course, S2U2 with a custom background - a pic of mine taken in Weston-Super Mare. :D Few other tweaks in there aswell, but that's the main ascetic ones... Ooh, and of course there's Batti in there aswell... :( Cheers Gavin W Hi, how did you get your calender to be displayed on s2u2. I just got the newest version of s2u2 pro ver. 1.05 and it just lets me "flick" through the calendar - it doesn;t just show it. any thoughts? thanks!
