XDA2 Boot Image's are NOW changable

[akira]

During my quest to get rid of german software and get normal english, i have flashed my system like a million times,
then i got an 02 boot image
then a I-mate
then t-mobile

so its possible to change this image to your willing i guess

anyonen figured out what cab file in extended rom holds this image

maybe we can raw hack it

[akira]

update

if you got an imate
its
Default_Imate.CAB

there are 2 files
0Splash1.005
0Splash2.004

if you run this cab, it will only edit the boot screens, so it turns into i-mate
i dont know how to edit these 2 files yet

they arent any format i know

hexedit read doesnt discover anything

any help here?


*** update
its a raw format
trying a picture in a bit

[akira]

got a strange picture now :)
but he its working great :)

no hard reset needed or anything

still need to get the format right!
then we can all change our boot screen

[dadarkmcse]

When it extracts, it creates a files with a .nb extension i believe. I ran the CAB just for fun and cancelled it halfway through. Upon soft reboot, the top part of the "i-mate" logo was missing (as if just cut horizontally). Re-ran the cab, this time it worked fine.

Are these similar to the screens on the original XDA?

[akira]

ladies and gentleman

You can now change your bootimages to your liking

*** link has been removed, the file is on page 2 ***

This prehistoric way will change
the boot pictures of your xda2
But it works

boot sequence has 2 pictures
1 will be at startup
and the next wil follow after 2 seconds
so you can make something nice :)

I included 2 working images, so you can test it you like.
Its supposed to be jennifer lopez and second image is matrix revolutions

step by step
------------
1. open a drawing program and maken 2 pictures
make sure they are saved in 320 height and 240
width. save them as normal BMP or JPG as you like
name them Splash1 and Splash2

2. acdsee 6.0 is required and easiest for this
open it and convert the pictures to
RSB RED STORM FILE FORMAT
setting for me where : use a specific resolution 64 megapixel
anti aliashing off

3. when its done rename the extensions to .NB

4.copy the cab file on your phone
and copy the Splash1.nb and Splash2.nb
in your windows folder

5.now run the CAB file

done

you can delete the 2 files Splash1.nc and Splash2.nc from your
windows map


basic
but works


**sometimes the image doesnt fit properly, i think the width must be adjusted.
will look into that later

;)

[arebelspy]

akira, you are the man! :D

-arebelspy

[arebelspy]

Maybe you could have the cab file (at the end of its running) delete Splash1.nc and Splash2.nc for us? ;)

-arebelspy

[vbexpert]

You can use WinCE CAB Manager (http://www.ocpsoftware.com/) to edit the CAB file to include the nb files.

[arebelspy]

Bam, I got matrix code as my bootup image. :D

-arebelspy

[akira]

i was very tired yesterday and it was getting late, so i finished it quickly so other could try.

that cab thing is good, ill try this weekend to make something more handy

the file displacement is maybe because the file has to be exactly as big as the original. try that this weekend to..

[arebelspy]

IMO, keep the cab how it is. If you make the .nb files inside the cab, you'd have to download a new cab file every time you wanted to change the image, etc. It'd be a lot harder for people to change the startup images, how it is now works good, if it would just delete the two files for us. :D

-arebelspy

[akira]

is your picture on the right place or displaced?

[arebelspy]

displaced.. that's why i replaced it with matrix code, so you couldn't tell :D

then again maybe it was how you saved the images that made it displaced? i just hit save and did it as that filetype, didnt bother to check about the 64 megapixel anti aliasing off thing.

Hello,

I have tryed the method but it didn't work for me.
I builded a rom on yorch.net with pocketpc 2003 en get de xd developer startup screen, when i do what you tell above and i restart my XDA the developerscreen is still there nothing has changed.

Can you help me with this problem i really want to change the startup picture

[david beckham]

Can you help me with this problem i really want to change the startup picture

I think this program works only on XDA II

[akira]

xda2 only

[platte]

So it is not possible to change the startuppic of my xda1

[akira]

correct

[palmop]

I have the same displacement problem. I'll look into it on the weekend

[InV]

very nice app so far, thx
my images are also slightly displaced though, maybe 10 pixels to the right

[akira]

palmop think its 30 pixels

try that

cut out 30 on the left and put it on the right side

e voila

a friend of mine is willing to make a appication where you just insert 2 pics and you can scale/edit/add txt to the pic and then save it to the 2 files splash1 and 2, and it would automatic cut the 30 pixels from right and place it to left

maybe he can make it direct uploadable with active sync

ill keep you updated

he will try it this weekend

[InV]

On my XDA it is exactly 15 pixels, just tried it, works and looks great.
I used the method you described and cut of 15 px from the left side and pasted them to the right, while moving the rest of the image 15 px left.

Would be very nice if your app would do all the work in the future :wink:

[akira]

maybe a input for pixel would be nice
and maybe 30 or 15 as default

[alex-zero]

Can anyone says something about this methode and a MDA-II?

Will it work or ony on XDA-II?

(Don't want to destroy my mda-II ;-) )) )


AleX

[palmop]

It works fine on I-Mate, XDA II or MDA II. I have run it on I-Mate and MDA II as well.

[othman]

palmop think its 30 pixels

try that

cut out 30 on the left and put it on the right side

e voila

Hello

Any Progress on your friend Application where you just insert 2 pics and you can scale/edit/add txt to the pic and then save it to the 2 files splash1 and 2, and it would automatic cut the 30 pixels from right ?

thanks

[Magic2ik]

Does someone have original file
(window ce) so no t-mobile or............

Just clear windows...

Please mail to:
Magic2ik@unlocker.nu

[roffa]

i see that this tools isn't working anymore on the 1.60 t-mobile patch. does anyone have an idea why?

[akira]

it worked for me :)

[chuck]

could you post the rar file as I did not manage to get it through the inidcated link.
thanks

[arebelspy]

You have to reapply it after a ROM update which wipes it to its own image..

-arebelspy

[cojones]

Can you tell me the name of the corresponding Cab file for o2 xda II?

Update: l've worked out that its O2UKCustomize.sa.CAB

[nargalzius]

can someone repost the original cabfile of this application. the first link has been dead for ages.

i'm sure it's only a few hundred KB (or less) so it shouldnt take much time for anyone who already has it to post it here for everyone

[mephistodan]

you can use this cab.. it's not the same cab that was provided here.. i've just made it and made it in a hurry so it's more than 500kb..
use the same rules been said in this thread

[nargalzius]

i think the cab file is corrupt. I can't open it with WinCE Cab manager. (and when i run it, no changes occurs and the app hangs)

also, does the displacement rule apply here? if so, how many pixels should it be moved? i hear 15 or 30, which one is it?

[kelvin_27_84]

Hi a newbie in this, just like to ask something about splash screen. Just upgraded to latest T-mobile ExtROM i wanna change the splash screen using the er2003edit but it keeps giving me the error "Error accessing image file" whats wrong??? The only way i wa taught in this forum is using the er2003 edit to access into the splash screen and overwrite the orginal. Or another way which till now i cannot locate the .CAB file is using the Win CE CAB manager rite? I am really tired seeing the "T-mobile, testing only" splash screen..... :cry:

[hungdu]

You can download these files, copy to your device and run.

[kelvin_27_84]

ITS A BIG BLUNBER I MADE!!! sorry i finally access to the splash image with the editor!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8305&highlight=er2003edit+password
Thanks for the files anyway!!! i will download it as a back up!! haha!!

[akira]

Here is the original cab file :)

sorry for the missing part ;)

[Panja]

Thanks!

[joshua]

how u u guys change the extension of the file?


any advices?

TIA

cheers
j0shua

[itsme]

why did you add a rootcertificate to the device in your bootimage changer? it has nothing to do with the bootsplash images. it is not nice to put rootcertificates on people's devices unknowingly.
I guess you have not looked at the files you used, and inadvertently included some provider's certificate?

and btw, the '16 pixels' to remove is a strange way of saying 'you have to remove the file header from the .nb file'.

looking at the header, it contains the following:
0000: 00000000 - ?
0004: 000000f0 - width
0008: 00000140 - height
000c: 00000000 - ?
0010: 00000005 - Red bits
0014: 00000006 - Green bits
0018: 00000005 - Blue bits
001c: 00000000 - ?

[akira]

well i am not the techie here Itsme

I dont know anything about programming or headers etc.
i just found out a way to change the bootscreen. i think it works fine

and i found out when the xda2 was just a few months out (Nov 19, 2003), at that point there was no er2003edit or a xda2unlocker or whatever.

if you can do beter (wich i am sure you can)

make it so

no hard feelings.. :roll:


btw. i did not program this, this is a normal bootimage changer CAB from a IMATE or Qtek rom update from before november 2003
it changed the boot image i noticed, i just looked what it did and changed a bit, i was happy when i found out the format the picture must be in

[itsme]

well, sorry suffering from a somewhat grumpy mood due to a painful tooth.

[vary_p]

you can download the action for photoshop, if you don't know much in graphic, it will auto generate good picture for you here ...
the file is in the "Down load zip file"

Hi,

I have just flashed my Qtek 2020 with the ROM 1.72.00 from T-Mobile and, of course the boot image was changeh to T-mobile logo.
Anyone knows where to get the Qtek boot image to put it back in the device?

Thanks a lot

[JamesManios]

Can someone please post the splash1.nb, splash2.nb images for the original PocketPC 2003 release...

Thanks

[soperjon]

spash1 & spash2

[JamesManios]

Thanks Soperjon,

Using the files, I converted a set and made splash?.nb files. Here's a copy for anyone who might want them...

[Leo]

Has someone done this for Qtek2020? And if so what cab file did you use?

[hambam]

I read through this thread, but what do I have to do exactly if I plan to change the splash logo?
I have a Qtek 2020 with vodafone provider.
Could anyone give me a step-by-step tutorial?

[madkat]

The images appear to be in a header-less 16bit 565 format. That is to say that the Red and Blue components occupy 5 bits each while the Green components occupy 6 bits each. I have written a quick & dirty Viewer in VB6 so far, with some minor anomalies. I'll take it home with me (I'm at work now *slaps wrists*) and work on saving files back to this format. Then maybe on to taking that .Cab apart to figure out which part of it changes the boot pics! Once that's done, it may be possible to rename it as a .exe and hurl together a quick CF.NET app to write the .nb files to \Windows and run the exe.

[madkat]

This will undoubtedly be useful!

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/SP_AMO/html/Changing_the_Operator_Splash_Screen_KTVO.asp

[Ryanmt]

any updates? anybody finished a tool or got a guide on how to remove the header?

[madkat]

Gimme a chance :-P
I've been writing music! Orbiting - right-click & save target.. (http://download1.suxx.co.uk/hugh.hulme/madkat_-_Orbiting.mp3) <-- see?

Actual details of how these images are updated appears to be only for the SmartPhone (though if anyone has any good sources, I'd be interested?)

The image 'encoder' is complete - you load a jpeg/bitmap and save a .nb, in the correct format. The old method of removing 15 pixels from the left hand side simply led to the header being displayed as part of the image. I'll post the 'encoder' shortly, just to make it easier to get new images in.

[madkat]

OOPS
There was an error in the app, somewhere..
Bare with me pls =)

[madkat]

Fixed - there's a pointless 1-byte header which does apparently nothing!

As previously said - you should have everything you need.. otherwise, try to find the VB6 Runtime Redistributable from Microsoft.

Save 240x320 bitmap/jpeg/gif from favourite image editor.
Load bitmap/jpeg/gif into nb Image Converter.
Save .nb file to disk.
Copy .nb file as Splash1.nb or Splash2.nb to device.
Double-click XDA2_bootimage_changer.CAB available elsewhere in this thread, which you will have previously copied Read-Only to your device.

Attachment deleted - see attachment further down this page for details!!

[akira]

error need comdlg32.ocx

[Rudegar]

smells very much like visual basic libs or run times missing

[madkat]

Do you know if you have comdlg32.dll in your Windows System (or System32) folder?

[akira]

COMMDLG.DLL in system dir
commdlg.dll in system32 dir

[madkat]

I've made a SFX which will install the ComDlg32 DLL & OCX files and register the OCX for you.

If it still doesn't work, the VB6 Runtime files can be found Here (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=bf9a24f9-b5c5-48f4-8edd-cdf2d29a79d5&displaylang=en)

[akira]

works :P

now make a complete thingie

install of the commdlg32.dll
then install the bootimage changer

and when finished selecting the image
auto copy the files and the cab on the pda
and then autorun it on the pda :roll:

[madkat]

I'm not familiar enough with ActiveSync & installers for such to do that bit yet =) My original plan was to write an app which would run on the device and allow you to choose which .nb images to use from there. I may well still try that one.

[madkat]

Windows XP Logo, little Progress Bar, in .nb format...

Note added 06/06/04: You will notice the "blue shift" in these images, as a result of the reversed byte order bug. However, it's so minor that you have to look pretty hard and almost certainly won't see it on the device's screen!

[CdRsKuLL]

awesome App madkat... thanks loads.. very easy to use

:-)

CdrsKuLL

[madkat]

Glad you like it =)

[madkat]

NEW version...
This will eliminate the "colour banding" and "spurious white bits" artifacts on some images.
I was wrong about there being a 1-byte header - I was just writing the bytes in the wrong order!!!

See later in this thread - I've done *another* new version! =)

[toon6]

Great Job Madkat. Thank you very much as it's better to start the phone with something else than "Microsoft Pocket Pc" 8-).

Also I've noticed something : when you load a picture in you app and then you save without changing the name of the file, it'll overwrite the original picture. But it's minor.

[madkat]

Feedback is what makes software better..

See Here (page 4) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=3759&start=75) for new version!

[PapaDocta]

thanks madkat

great utility........... keep up the good work

[madkat]

:D

[frog]

:lol: :P Yes!!!

[pbelcl]

Feedback is what makes software better..
only a small fedback ;-)
it would be nice if the open dialog has default in the filename "*.*" in the "file" field.
so it would be possible to see al files an select one. now you have to type in the file extention to see the files in the directory

[The Hobbit]

i just used the software it works great now i have liverpool football club logo on boot up and i just converted the size to 240 by 320 with no trimming :lol: :lol: :lol:

[chioque]

Hobbit, mind sharing the LFC boot screen? Thanks

[pbelcl]

Hello Developers

i found a little commandline program here a view weeks ago could change from *.bmp to *.nb format AND BACK.

as i found some nice pictures in *.nb format i want change them back to *.bmp.
can anybody tell me where i can find the little commandline tool to convert back the files, because i dont want to install ACDsee on my PC...

[madkat]

I might be able to change my app to do such stuff. I'll have a look when I get home in ~6 hours from now.

Update 10/06/04:
Yes, possible with a few lines of code. I just have to get off my butt and do it. Actually last night I was resurrecting my cable box and wiring it to my PC, since my TV went *BANG*.. D'OH! Then I watched Jurassic Park 3. Cute little film. Similar calibre to Day After Tomorrow (which ain't that amazing really.)

I'll do it for you tonight.

[madkat]

so it would be possible to see al files an select one. now you have to type in the file extention to see the files in the directory

If you select one of the file type options in the list (i.e. All Supported File Types) it should list *.bmp, *.jpg, *.gif, *.nb in the window. I wanted to make a default filename for the Save dialog to keep it simple, or you'll be forever typing filenames. I could just add an "All Files" option at the bottom..?

[pbelcl]

I could just add an "All Files" option at the bottom..?
It would be fine if you could add "*.*" in the field "Filename" when "All supported image types" is selected (see Screenshot).

Is this is possible :?:

[madkat]

There is no need to type *.*
You could have said that it just doesn't list .nb files!

The software does not support *all* image types. Thus "All supported image types" should list only bmp, jpg, gif and nb. nb was initially omitted from this list (though there is the option to list only .nb files!)

[sublimatica]

Awesome work akira and madkat - I now have my own bootscreens. Thanks a lot for those. :) :mrgreen:

[pbelcl]

The software does not support *all* image types.
yes i know, but it could SHOW all supported filetypes when "all files" is selected.

as i tried your new version (can save *.bmp files also) and found a bug it seems so.
the software saves your default screen when i select "save.bmp" and not the bitmap of previos loadet .nb file.
please check this and tell me if there is a bug or i have to much beer this evening ;-))

[pbelcl]

when saving .bpm with "nb_image_converter_859.exe" the program askes to overwrite files are not in the target directory!?

can anybody else validating this "feature"

[madkat]

I'll look into it shortly for you :-)

[Dingo]

Yes i get the same. I tried to save .bmp and it asks to confirm overwrite even though there was nothing to overwrite. Then the saved file was the converters picture not the loaded one.

Great app though keep up the good work.

[madkat]

ARGH
Had food poisining last night, and the night before I was messing with new brakes for my car.. But I'll get onto it tonight! :)

[pbelcl]

..... But I'll get onto it tonight! :)
Thank's !! I'll test it when a bug fixed version it is aviable ...

[collins199820]

well with this new found technology we can start sharing splash images i'll post my first here!

[theunprofessional]

tell me if you like em!

[madkat]

Still puzzling over the bitmap saving.. though I did resolve the nonexistant file bug. I might resort to a slow save, similar to the .nb file saving.

I might also change it to round to the closest value instead of always rounding down after division.

[collins199820]

if u think his are good u should see mine there really impressive! cannot upload cause im using my xda 2 as its my only means of net access! mail me @ c2k4@o2.co.uk and i'll send them u!

[hussain]

I made this bootscreen, am I supposed to do the 15 pixel thing?

[madkat]

No, just grab a copy of the app I wrote (it's on this page I think,) load the BMP file you want to convert and then save it to .nb format.
I never did sort .bmp saving, but it's not an operation-critical feature.

[Robson]

nice app, you guys may also want to save or resize your photos / images to approximately 241 x 332. makes the photos centered and properly sized for the nb app.

this is my boot up image :D

[madkat]

It only saves pixels 0 thru 239 horizontally and 0 thru 319 vertically - I've never had a problem using 240x320 bitmaps =) If you're using JPeg, that could be affecting the dimensions of the saved image?!

[Robson]

not sure how this goes but this is what i do:
i took a screen shot of the nb app opened; i then pasted this on fotocanvas. cut and paste of the nb screen only, then pasted it as a new image. result is that the actual dimensions of the nb screen is 241 x 332.

say i have a pic i want to use as a boot up image; i then use fotocanvas to resize it to 241 x 332; there is minor distortion but it's hardly noticeable. i then use the nb app and presto; image for boot up is centered and there's no more need for any adjustments.

2 pence worth
cheers

[madkat]

Shouldn't happen! I'll look into it later.

[madkat]

Solved - the image was being loaded in its entirety and saved properly, but the image box borders made it look a bit out.
If your original file is properly centered and is 240x320, your output file will be properly centered. It does not corrupt the output file - but by resizing the input, you'll cut off the right hand and bottom edges of your .nb file.
All I've done is remove the image box border and put a frame around it instead. The version I have here is old - so I'll do it again with the real code when I get home, and I might look at Bitmap saving too.

In short, you're trying to use the picture on the PC as a Preview of what it would look like on the device, which it isn't. It's just there so you know you've got the right picture - and to store the image data between load & save.

I might also try to convert it to .Net, but don't hold your breath. It would run faster, if it works, but you would need the .Net Framework installed on your PC.

[collins199820]

Yeah and from my expereince thats effin hard to find I installed one but all the things i have need the newer one but every time i click the link it takes me to a page of mumbo jumbo (Typical Microsoft) with NO download link

[madkat]

Last time I tried to install a .Net app on a PC without .Net it took me to a huge long list of things to download and you have to have some technical skill to know which is the one to get! And then it's something like 26Mb!! I tried it as .Net and it wasn't any faster. Probably would be if I dumped the data into a Bitmap first instead of calling the conversion routine for every pixel to be read/written..

[collins199820]

It works fine the way it is for me mate so I wouldnt bother Im on XP and it does the job I have no issues so dont strain urself m8!

[pbelcl]

when saving .bpm with "nb_image_converter_859.exe" the program askes to overwrite files are not in the target directory!?


I'll look into it shortly for you :-)

Is there a Version aviable can save *.bmp files from *.nb files??

when i save a *.bmp file from an *.nb file (with Version nb_image_converter_859.exe) the welcome screen of the program ist saved instead of the shown bitmap ......

could you fix this already?

[firebird2k]

Just an FYI.. I tried this on a PDA2k.. No luck.. wouldn't change the boot image :(

Hello,

I´ve also tried to change my XDA III boot image, but haven´t been succesfull.
Any ideia?

[madkat]

I would suggest that the XDA3/similar device has a different delivery system for integrating its images - if anyone would like to donate an XDA3 to akira or myself, I'm sure we could figure it out!

As for bitmaps - I would love to spend a couple of hours fixing it up, but I rarely have that sort of time available at work, which is where my development tools are. I'll get it sorted eventually - don't panic. IIRC the latest version does output the full 320x240 to the screen, so if you're really stuck you can always use Paint Shop Pro or similar to make a screenshot.
Edit: My mistake, I never released the latest latest version.. Please be patient - got heaps of work to do right now and, quite frankly, I'm a little worried about my current mental state!

Hi there madcat!

Beleive if I could I would!
Anyway will it help if I post the Extended ROM of my Pda2k??
I have been browsing through all cabs and found nothing like in the Default_Imate.CAB on the xda2 or iMate.

However I might be overlooking something, so just say and I'l post.

OK peeps, NB Image Converter Web Edition Version 1 is now ONLINE (http://xsv.org.uk/ImageConverter/)

Only does conversion *to* NB currently, but you can choose your output resolution.

Choose your file, click "Get NB" and it will throw back at you a file with the same filename but with .nb appended. Enjoy!

Coming soon: NB to JPeg, Bitmap, maybe something else. Maybe also Source Rotation (90 degrees)

Hi guys,

tried to change the bootimages on my MDAII with the supplied cab files (imate, o2, xda2_changer CAB) ..
Used own nb Files created with that image converter ..

In the windows directory I can find the mentioned .nc files ..

But nothing changed, still got that ugly tmobile screen.

Any idea ? Is it a problem, that I deleted the Ext_ROM with DOCTool ?

So long

[HonkBB]

Hi folks,

okay, now restored the ext rom, performed a hard reset to get a "virgin" PDA. Tried the XD2_bootimage_changer with some here supplied splash screens .. copied both the splash files and the cab to windows dir, start cab, softreset .. Nothing .. STILL T-COM splash ..

Using an MDAII with Tofclock WM6 ..

Please help ..

Hi,

finally I got it.

Seems, that the ext Rom of my MDA II is write protected as described here somewhere in the forum. So I modified the extROM with Windows Mobile 2003 ROM Editor (really easy cause it supports Splash-Screen BMP Load/Save function) an updated this. Isn't as easy as this simple software patch described here but works.

can we change wm6 bootsplash of himalaya? thanks!

[utak3r]

It depends on what you're thinking of....
WM6 splash is in fact a third splash in a boot sequence. It's simply welcomehead.96.png file.

As of two first splahes... I haven't found any way to do it yet - those splashes were installed in ExtROM - and we don't have it anymore ;)
I will be trying, though... I'm bored with my old ones, I've made them over a year ago ;)

Hi,

as described, I restored my ExtRom with DOC_Restore, took the T-Mobile 1.72 Update (http://xdazone.india372.server4you.de/apboard/thread.php?id=3373), extracted the ms_.nbf (ExtROM) , changed the splashes with "Windows Mobile 2003 ROM Editor" and updated the ExtROM. Works well.

I'm not sure if the t-mobile extrom could be used for other version of Himalaya than the MDA II.
