[How To] Custom Boot Pic

[jdstankosky]

Every time I try to run CreateG1Splash.exe I get the following error:

The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135). Click on OK to terminate the application.

I have Windows XP Pro (32 bit), SP3 and the HTC device drivers are properly inistalled. How do I fix this? Why does it happen? I think this is the same error several other people had.

Would It be possible for someone to convert my home made splash for me?

EDIT:
I think it has something to do with my .net framework version... I'm looking into that now.

RE-EDIT:
For those of you also experiencing this error, you must update your .net framework! I got it working now!

Sigh. Why can't anything ever go as smoothly as intended? When my phone is booted up normally, in the device manager it shows up as ADB Interface --> HTC Dream Composite ADB Interface like it's supposed to. When I turn my phone off and start it with Camera+Power and hit the Back button to show FASTBOOT, now my device manager shows ADB Interface --> HTC Dream with a big yellow (!). It says "This device cannot start. (Code 10)"

I have the Android SDK 1.5 RC 2 downloaded, I'm using the USB x86 drivers and the tools from that throughout this whole process. My phone is running JF 1.51 just fine for a couple weeks now.

Does anyone have any insight into what I might need to do to get this working?

sending 'mysplash1' (300 KB)... OKAY
writing 'mysplash1'... FAILED (remote: partition does not exist)

I keep getting this error after entering the command "fastboot flash mysplash1 mysplash.rgb565"

running JFv1.51 ADP.....

Any ideas what's wrong?

You have to type "fastboot flash splash1 mysplash.rgb565"
it's not mysplash1 it's splash1
hope it helped

Yup. I knew it was something simple and dumb that I was doing wrong. "Couldn't see the forest...." kinda thing.

Gracias

You get rid of it by flashing the old one and if you didn't make backup then search the web for the original.

Ok I think I did something wrong, please help...I did as the tutorial asked but now when I boot I get some kind of white wheel, looks kinda like a gear or something...Please help...

[tcdegenerate]

nevermind, I finally got it... after reading this topic a little more I finally noticed that there was a mysplash.rgb565 on the desktop and not to use the one that is in the createg1splash folder...now it is good, and I used two seperate images to each splash so its all good

Hey I stumbled upon something and I would like to know more about it.. I was Familiar with some commands using the Terminal Emulator and one command I knew was Reboot Recovery.. I decided to try that with Fastboot and I typed in the cmd, "fastboot reboot recovery" "see attached image" Is anyone familiar with this?? What can you do with this?

Great stuff. I love this site.

where do you get fastboot.exe? i read there is only a fastboot for linux and mac. it's not in my tools folder either.

can you upload it somewhere?
