Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

Thanks, the Nokia logo wasn't working for me, so I went ahead and resized and rasterized the maemo.org logo SVG. Looks awesome.

One question, it takes a second for the maemo.org logo to come up immediately after powerup (it shows the regular Nokia logo during this time). This wouldn't happen to be something contained on one of the cold–flash-only sectors?

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

The first time I rebooted the nokia logo didn't show for me either. But second it worked (I still havn't figured out the right turn on turn off ways, so that mig be it).

It sure seems that this logo is in the cold-flash-only sector. Its identlical to the ...startup_nokia.png but its not in the filesystem.

I am so glad this issue was finally solved and posted.

Linux Rulez!!!

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

To gain root access, you have to install becomeroot AND type "sudo gainroot" at the prompt. Typing "sudo gainroot" won't work if you don't have becomeroot installed. For a list of Linux commands, http://www.linuxguide.it/linux_commands_line_en.htm is a good resource. As for a step by step, including exactly what to type, here goes...

Make sure your files are properly sized and named (see my previous post for this info). Place the files in the "Documents" folder on the device. You could use any folder, or the memory card, but for the purpose of this tutorial we need to be on the same page. Open xTerm and type "sudo gainroot". Type:

cd /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/

This navigates to the folder where the startup screens are stored.

cp qgn_indi_nokia_hands.jpg qgn_indi_nokia_hands_backup.jpg
cp qgn_indi_startup_nokia_logo.png qgn_indi_startup_nokia_logo_backup.png
cp qgn_indi_progressbar.png qgn_indi_progressbar_backup.png

This will create backups of the files you are about to modify.

cd /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/

This navigates to the "Documents" folder, where you have placed the new files. This command in particular is case-sensitive.

cp qgn_indi_nokia_hands.jpg /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
cp qgn_indi_startup_nokia_logo.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
cp qgn_indi_progressbar.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/

This copies the new files to the proper directory, overwriting the originals.

Exit xTerm and reboot. You may have to shutdown and reboot a second time before the new screens will show.

And for the splash...which is also my background as well. :D

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

Hi all,
I did the steps mentioned above and was able to change the Nokia hands logo but not the nokia startup logo, i rebooted the N800 a few times and I have noticed that the progress bar is not showing either, only the default nokia startup logo then to the modified nokia hands logo, anyone have any ideas?

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

Please disregard the comment above, I restarted a 4th time and now it shows up!

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

I'll have to try this :)
Now is there a way to change the startup sound?

Re: Show off you Startup Screen!
 

I was able to find the shutdown sound but not the start up, it is in /usr/share/sounds
