not a total idiot . . . yet I can not figure out how to get rid of the ATT animated splash screen on the new AT&T branded rom.

I can change the main splash and welcomehead file, but not what I am supposing is the subsplash.

I have even cooked my own ruu nbh with just a subsplash which has worked on black roms, but seemingly has no effect on this rom

any ideas?

The only thing I can help you with, and I am sure you looked is try here (http://www.mrvanx.org/cms/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=20&Itemid=27).

Is the splash your talking about the annoying animated one, that has the load startup volume? I have tried a few roms myself and it has never shown up since using those.

the animated att gif and sound files are located in either the extended rom or the OEMOPERATORS folder. You just have to delete them before you cook your rom. Or post cooking, you just either overwrite or delete the two files in your windows folder... and another option too is to point your registry settings to your own files. should be in the HKLM/Software/HTC/AnimatedGif

Sorry if I'm not being clear on the exact locations of those files because I'm at work and I don't have my kitchen supplies here with me. But it should't be hard now that I've pointed you in the right direction.

I reflashed using the ATT branded ROM so that's why I got the animated startup (subsplash doesn't even show) so I'll reflash and reset it before it goes into the customizations.

Seems like it goes through two configurations - one from ? and the other from the extended rom - using "pimp my black v2" to unlock extended rom. However I can not delete any files located on the extended rom. Am I doing something wrong? I want to create my own autoconfig with just the things I need/want. I'd love to NOT install all the ppt stuff. Where is that autoconfig coming from?

I believe it's not in the ext rom, but the ROM itself. Disable it here: HKLM/Software/HTC/Startupanimation.

PTT is in the ROM not the ext rom. We're stuck with it for now.
