Yeah, i tried doing the same...
But i learned the hard way that you need to have a kernel installed on your phone that supports changing the bootscreen.. Which continuum users do not have yet.. What we need is Clockwork, which there is development going on to get it So, soon

Just looking at the /system dump files, they are .qmg files. Which I know nothing about, I was also hoping it was just a .zip file in the system media folder. I guess if you find a way to read the .qmg file, and create a new one once you dissect the old one.

Well not many people have this phone so there isnt much right now, There is a dev getting one of these phones so hopefully in a couple weeks maybe longer we should have some cool stuff.

Just a matter of waiting.

Well, the Continuum has been very odd about that... Most phones that are going to get pretty big communities, get them pretty quickly. It really is just a matter of being patient and not having devs rush things.
Got droid sometime at end of Sept.-> Returned it near the beginning of Nov.-> Got continuum on 11/26/10 -> Bricked Continuum on 1/9/11 -> Got replacement on 14th or 15th-> Bricked again on 2/10/11-> Got second replacement on 2/16/11-> Got Galaxy Nexus 11/23/12
