Changing The Boot Screen?

[Quiest]

Is it possible, that the bootscreens are just save as a normal image file and we can change them like we change the menu graphics?

It would be nice to replace it with something more nice (maybe a WinXP bootscreen? j/k).

I think the current bootscreens are pretty ugly and needs to be changed asap!

Do you mean the u-boot screen, or the green one after that? I remember reading an interview with someone at gph where they said that they wouldn't make that possible, especially after that chinese clone appeared.

 

[finty]

There was a Chinese clone already?

 

[daminator]

Babah... A bit firmware hacking will make everything possible
Like my Siemens SX1... The hacked firmware allows me wav ringtones, louder voice, fullscreenthemes....

 

[Segata Sanshiro]

Yeah i don't doubt it will be hacked, BUT the problem is when hacking is not used correctly (i'm talking about the chinese again )

 

[Ferentix]

So what exactly IS this chinese clone thing? People keep referring to it, and how it's made GPH more scared to release source, but I guess I arrived here too late or something... what happened?

I think the 'clone' is this Sheepu one:

pretty much a gp2x look-a-like eh?

 

[nickspoon]

Erm... the thing in the picture is a GP2X, or a very good clone. Notice how it says "gamepark holdings" on the panel thingy.

It's a clone factory, check their sunglass mp3 player and their vid: http://seepu.en.alibaba.com/videoshow.html

 

[Quiest]

I mean both if possible, or one of them if nothing else goes

So it is not possible by just let a script copy over some files?

 

[Paradox]

surely thats illegal? its a picture of the bloody beta gp2x with gamepark holdings on the bottom...wtf.. you cant do that

It`s Korea, dude, and please please please stay on topic there is a clones thread in the other consoles forum already, and I really want to get rid of these boot screens.

Hi, I think that those images will be embedded in UBoot source, however all I can find are the sources for the dev kit version.

Do you recall a link to GPH's source? I'm drawing a blank with the search engine.

i would like to see you be able to change the boot screen, for the WB1.3 skin having a loading screen of kickstart or workbench floppy would be cool

 

[Drak]

Can someone post a pic of what it looks like? I hope its not too ugly

 

[triton]

Yes im aware of that Ive got unlimited bandwidth, but at least people arent mad at my epileptic one i had before ^.^

Im trying to convert my black cat one so that it doesnt take up so much but i keep getting an error

They use to equal like 1.2mb, so 800k aint as bad im trying! If it bugs u,then u can adblock if need be.
