Yes 1st u have to make a logo.jpg of resolution 480*800 only..
u can make it using Photoshop..
Then just open terminal emulator in your GTi9000.. if u dont have it download it from the android market..
Copy the logo.jpg file in the root of your SDCARD..
and type the following command:
"cp /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs" [Without Quotations]
Reboot your phone now..
now you will see your logo.jpg file as the boot image/splash screen..
It would not replace it by root explorer.."
Yes i was also shocked to see the i9003 and docomo logos..

click the thanks button if i helped..:P

I just made the splash screen by removing samsung logo from the original
(hey samsung you have made a big enough logo on our phones! no need to put one on boot!)
saved as /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg 800×480 of course
opened terminal emulator, typed
Code:
cp /mnt/sdcard/logo.jpg /mnt/.lfs
and get the following code without logo.jpg replaced
Code:
cp: can't create '/mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg': File exists

also tried copying with root explorer, but it also turns out to be the original image
(even deleteing the original and put new logo.jpg to /mnt/.lfs)
(of course I have a backup of original image)


will this be something wrong with busybox?


EDIT:it seems everything that gets into /.lfs can't be deleted by RE or terminal emulator. weird...

To be clear, I have root, busybox 1.19.3 , superuser permitted terminal IDE,
typed su this time but still no luck.
(and when I tried to rm a accidentally copied jpg from /mnt/.lfs , terminal IDE even says 'operation not permitted' . WHAT? I have already "su"ed!)

Doubt that I must go through download mode in order to write in movinand.
Anyway thanks for providing all the info on splash screen replacement. Cheers.

I second that. I am root and mounted /system as rw, it does not allow me to rm or even mv the /mnt/.lfs/logo.jpg to anywhere. Even root explorer cannot rename the default logo.jpg. Operation not permitted is the error I get. I am using gingerbread 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD.JPKPE build. Dont know if they added some second layer of protection...
