thanks to superchillpil and gadget for i can make custom splash images now if anyone is interested. can take requests will try to make how you like but no promises.(justa rookie). if you post a pic i should be able to make into splash.

here's one from gadget

more to come if there is a need
must have root!
place on root of sd card(not in a folder)
boot to bootloader,
You will see
update splash,
Select yes update splash,
Wait, when done
select reboot

TB ONLY!!
HIT THANKS if u like

Here is how i make my own splash's if you want to make you're own

1.find an image u want.{must be 480x800!!-photoscape and gimp work for resizing and such}

2.use the splash flasher program(do not connect phone just use for conversion) to convert j-peg(whatever ur pic is)into an IMG file,should say custom.img.

3.rename file to splash1,(after should say splash1.img)place splash1.img and android info txt file into a folder and zip.(make sure u zip under store setting)only zip 2 files not folder containing files!

4.rename PG05IMG


ucan change second splash by changing png image in boot ani

Thank you very much, however, do you think you can edit the picture a little bit? It seems just a touch grainy, is that because of a size restriction? Either way, thank you very much. Could you make a version without "Rooted" at the bottom?

I would like help installing this as well. I have no folder on my sdcard for root. In my sdcard folder I do have a zip file called PG05img.zip. That is the same name as this file I just downloaded. If I put the downloaded file into the same folder as the other one wont it completely erase the other file?

Guys, the root just means not in any folder. Their are instructions in the OP and in another post on page 1.

Btw, chas, you want to remove the original PG05IMG.zip from your SD card. Every time you boot into hboot that will try and update on your phone. Best to remove it asap to avoid problems
