Changing Welcomehead.png question.

[Sponzert]

Hi,

I would like to change the green Windows Mobile screen when i boot my device. I have extracted the Welcomehead.png from my device and made another in Photoshop. Saved it as Welcomehead.png. I paste it in the windows folder and overwrite the original png. When i reboot i thought i would see the new picture but no luck here. Still the same green WM picture. What can i do to make this work for me?

make sure its not READ-ONLY(chk its attributes)

are you sure you replaced it? you can't replace it with Active-Sync, use a filemanager on your PPC to copy/cut the file and then paste it in the windows folder.

@ ather90
How do i check if it's read only or not?

@ me_
Yes I'm sure. This is what i did. I made the new png-file and made a rar-file, I copied it to my Card and extracted it there. From there i pasted it into the windows folder. I just did it again and it asks me if i want to overwrite it, yes in this case so it must be overwritten. Again, after reboot nu luck.

If you have an image viewer on your device, check that the file in the \Windows directory is now showing your new image.

Sorry for the late reaction, had to work.

I have checkt this and no it does not show up when i scan the images in the Windows-folder. Can anyone tell me what the right procedure is to make this work?

It should be named welcomehead.96.png not welcomehead.png - you should use total commander to overwrite the file and the welcomehead.96.png should be no larger than 100kb to work.

And this time it works. :D Thank you Meschle and others. :)
