Guest Paul Posted June 26, 2009 Report Share Posted June 26, 2009 This allows you to replace the initial splash on your device with a lovely MoDaCo one! :D Tested on G1, should work on Magic too? Steps... - Download this zip and extract - modaco.rgb565.zip- Download fastboot for your platform from HTC and extract to the same directory as the above - Power off your device, then power it on with Camera button held down to access bootloader - Run a command prompt, change to the above dir and enter 'fastboot flash splash1 modaco.rgb565' then 'fastboot reboot' - Party! ;) P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest stevenz Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 What apps will save out in the rgb565 format on OS X? My trusty Pixelmator doesn't want to know about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kman123 Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 (edited) I have installed the hardspl, but when i go to install the splash screen using command prompt, by keying in "fastboot flash splash1 modaco.rgb565", and then press enter, and it keeps saying <waiting for device> and doesnt move on. Does anyone know how to get past this? thanks EDIT: I have it working now. I think it wasnt working because I hadnt installed the drivers for my phone properly I think. Thanks Paul for the info, and thanks Carl_Brummy for helping with the Hero info! Thanks guys Edited December 17, 2009 by kman123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Shuflie Posted December 20, 2009 Report Share Posted December 20, 2009 Guys, is it possible to disable the graphical splash screen to see what is going on in the background during the boot? You could always try fastboot erase splash1, I haven't tried it so I won't take any responsibility for what might happen ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 (edited) I know what would be cool would be to make this an animated gif and insert the android robot so that it appears to be waving on the phone. You also need the flash of gold that runs through the HTC logo to appear across the MoDaCo to tell you the phone is booting. That'd be a cool thing to see on MCR :) Edited January 13, 2010 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Viper780 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Thx for that - i want to remove the damn T-Mobile Splashscreen a while ago and couldn't find a way. But where i can geht the original HTC Hero splash? You could always try fastboot erase splash1, I haven't tried it so I won't take any responsibility for what might happen ;) i've tried to erase it but i only get: C:tools>fastboot erase splash1 erasing 'splash1'... FAILED (remote: erasing error) so is there an other option to see it "linux like" what is booting there? I know what would be cool would be to make this an animated gif and insert the android robot so that it appears to be waving on the phone. i guess there is no way to make an animated splash screen what you search is an boot screen and that is an easy task to do that.

Guest Basher52 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 Great Work at all Paul, does it also work on the Huawei u8220 aka T-Mobile Pulse ?

Guest cortiis Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 (edited) I am not able to do this. Getting the r\error: <remote: not allow android> this also came when I was trying to get root to my Hero. At that time i used the recovery image flasher. What do I do now to resolve this? Please help. Edit: Just flashed the unlocked SPL and no error now. Have the Modaco guy as my splash screen. Way to go.

Guest weba Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 (edited) Will this method work for the San Francisco? I asked elsewhere but no joy... No offence meant for the MoDaCo splash, it's just I'm an illustrator so would like to experiment with my own stuff...
