OK, after rebooting, I think I see what's going on. It changed my boot animation. It installed the "android" animation like this one.

How do I install a different one? I prefer the Nexus "X".

As for the bar before TWRP, who knows... maybe I never noticed it before.

EDIT: I tried and tried to change my boot animation, but couldn't, so I dirty flashed CM10.1 and that restored the CM boot animation. If anyone can still help me, I'd appreciate it.

Try this:

boot into bootloader and enter fastboot mode. make sure you have fastboot and adb installed.
do:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot oem rebootRUU
fastboot flash zip PJ83IMG.zip
fastboot reboot


Let us know how this goes...




Yeh I am trying to get that to work and I have a compiled dll but when opening up the exe and clicking create zip I get an error. If you check the plugin thread you will see my post asking for help

Is it ok to do this if I have the Viper Rom? Where do I get the zip image and is that just a boot screen with the red lettering gone? What is the big deal about the red lettering?

So then whos feeling brave today??

I have 2 test files below, one is HBoot 1.09 and one is HBoot 2.14, both have the red text removed but they also have the tampered text removed

Now these are both untested and cause cause a brick so take caution and as always I can not held responsible for these files and you flash at your own risk!

HBoot 1.09: http://d-h.st/d4M
HBoot 2.14: http://d-h.st/QhR

Personally I think these will simply remove the text and you will be left with a grey box that says nothing but please do test and please reply and let us know how it went and post a screenshot of the finished result

I have 1,14 but I'm S-Off so does it matter? Can I use the original files in this first initial post you made?

    Remove Tampered Text!

    S-Off required
    This is quite a lengthy process but this will remove the tampered text competely and not leave just a blank space at the top, you will need adb, fastboot, 2.20 RUU, recovery img and your Unlock_code.bin, so here goes:

    First of all do a FULL backup in recovery (your phone will be wiped so dont miss doing this!)
    While your phone is doing that heave over here to download the 2.20 RUU: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1814217
    When backup has completely reboot into fastboot
    do: fastboot oem lock
    Reboot into Bootloader
    Run the RUU downloaded earlier
    When it has finished do: fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin (Dont panic if this fails, it failed for me all you need to do is go to HTCDev and unlock bootloader following the instructions)
    When that has completed go back into fastboot and flash your recovery back: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (twrp.img or whatever img your recovery is called)
    Once done enter recovery and restore the backup you made earlier
    After this you are all done for the main part but remember you flashed an RUU so everything an RUU flashes needs to be flashed back to what you want, this means reflash the HBoot, Splash image, radio and anything else that the RUU changes that you want to be different from the RUU
    Done! Enjoy no tampered text in Bootloader :D


    For those that want a quick easy flash with only red text removed please scroll down

    For One XL/Evita Only! Hboot only will be flashed. S-Off is required. This can be flashed on any HBoot and can be used to easily downgrade hboot.

    Can anyone work out what causes the loading bar to show or disappear?

    New method, customize your HBoot!

    Please note this method is currently untested (although I have hex compared the before and after hboots and all the changes seem 100% fine)

    I have made plug-ins for RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer

    RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer allows you to remove the red text or change it to something else, change s-off text to s-on, change the build date/time and change the *** Unlocked *** text

    Download the main app from here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1786498

    Then download the plug-ins from here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=38216901&postcount=89

    Choose the plug-in dependant on what version of hboot you want

    Place the plug-in and RegawMOD Bootloader Customizer exe in the same directory and open the exe. Choose your options and create a zip and place that zip in your adb folder

    boot into bootloader and enter fastboot mode.
    do:
    fastboot oem rebootRUU
    fastboot flash zip PJ83IMG.zip (Or whatever you called the zip when you saved it)
    fastboot reboot

    Quick simple flash that only removes red text:

    Here it is for anyone that wants it:

    HBoot 1.09: http://d-h.st/bt9
    HBoot 1.14: http://d-h.st/pZ1
    HBoot 2.14: http://d-h.st/J1T
    HBoot 2.15: http://d-h.st/toS (Thanks to exad)
    HBoot 2.18: http://d-h.st/Tnu


    Make sure you have fastboot and adb installed
    Place downloaded file in same directory as fastboot and adb is installed
    boot into bootloader and enter fastboot mode.
    do:
    fastboot oem rebootRUU
    fastboot flash zip RemoveText-1.09.zip (for 2.14 version RemoveText-2.14.zip)
    fastboot reboot

    This simply mods the hboot to remove the red text



    Some people report issues with erase cache command, if you have the problem to fix simply go into recovery and wipe cache

    This has been flashed and confirmed 100% working but as always we need a disclaimer:
    I can not be held responsible for this zip please flash at your own risk!!

    Since we ripped the new 2.15 hboot from the European OTA, I thought I would create a no red text splash hboot for those who just want to remove the red splash, and a plugin for those who want to add some swag to their bootloader screen.

    I have already tested it myself.
