YW

Depends
If your next ROM will include its own boot splash - this splash will be overwritten by the new one.
If your next ROM will not include its own boot splash - obviously this splash will still be there.


FYI
You can't just "remove" or "uninstall" ROM files (and this splash is like ROM, for it stays in the phone's ROM memory and won't be deleted by any hard reset). The ROM addresses it resides at *have to* be rewritten with another boot splash, so make up your mind before you flash it to your phone! In other words, obviously, if you don't know what are you doing - just DON'T DO IT
(and no, I don't have original HTC boot splash for you, sorry, but I don't even have HTC Blackstone phone ).
/edit: i have received "smart mobility" nbh, so this is no longer correct (post #1 already updated)

Read above...
Hopefully someone else can help you with original boot splash, I can't.
/edit: post #1 now also have "smart mobility" boot

Here you go download this & this would restore the original boot screen.

WARNING - FYI
You can't just "remove" or "uninstall" ROM files (and this splash - like any boot splash - is akin to ROM flashing, for it stays in the phone's ROM memory and won't be deleted by any hard reset, unlike startup splashes. Pls educate yourself about difference between boot splash and startup splash if you don't understand what I just said).
The ROM addresses it resides at *have to* be overwritten with another boot splash,
so make up your mind before you flash it to your phone!
In other words, obviously, if you don't know what are you doing - just DON'T DO IT

all info and tools in THIS thread

the picture here looks really good. i just tried, but this is just a picture, not a working screen like original splash that can display the radio, protocol, rom, it shows nothing there.

can you fix that?

 

[citrix80]

i just flashed new rom. this picture is gone. it went back to original smart mobility screen.

I have no idea what do you want me to fix!

As I told you earlier - it depends (on whether new boot splash is included in the ROM or not).
Since you have new boot splash after flashing new ROM, it obviously means that the ROM you've flashed contained its own new boot splash (in this case original one).

Rom update

if i update this rom to change to boot screen
when it asks if i want to confirm it says
current rom 1.14.405.3
update with 1.00.000.0 , will my rom stay excactly the same just changing the boot screen or will it actually lower my rom and make it not as good ?
sorry for the noob question

 

[paolonio]

Don't worry for that, the indication you are seeing are just related to the splash screen nbh image.
The ROM, RADIO, your documents, your personal settings and so on, will NOT be touched or modified during this process

on bottom of screen

detecting installed components
radio:
protocol:
rom:


in original smart mobility screen, it show the actual numbers. your picture does not show anything. can you make it possible to show the numbers?

 

[paolonio]

As soon as you will flash it... you will see it!!!!!!
The radio, rom end protocol version are detected by the OS, not from the static image contained into the splash screen .

The infos appear ONTO the splash image

Disable your antivirus, download again and re-flash
