how to change smartphone's WM5 start up / shut down screen
 

Hi,

Would like to know is there a program or any way that i can change my smartphone WM5 start up and show down screen? currently using Dopod S300 been trying many ways to change the logo but it cant work. is there a way to do? do mine sharing it

Up 2 now, only HTC Universal and HTC Wizard can change boot image, and it's very complex to do so

@Polaris: are you sure???

1Open your registery
2Goto HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM
3Edit Shutdown/1 =>Values/Splash with your new /Windows/xxx.bmp
4Edit Startup/1 =>Values/Splash with your new /Windows/xxx.png (this is 1st splash)
5Edit Startup/2 =>Values/Splash with your new /Windows/xxx.png (this is 1st splash)

Use the originals as templates :D

yeah, i've just read on a foreign forums a few days b4, there are only Wizard and Universal can do up 2 now. They need 2 use a tool 2 mod the ROM. I didn't see anything about editing registry can deal with this thing

@cengelbracht : r u sure it will work ?? If so, I think it will be a great discovery :D

i have a question to make

it would be healpful if we want to speedup the startup & Shutdown Process to delete the bmp's?

how exactly can we do that? give an empty path to the string?

thanks in advance
