How To Change Your Boot Image

Now I know we all leave our phones on 24/7, but for those users that actually turn their phones off and would like a custom boot screen when they start it back up, here is a walk through on how to customize this image. Up until lately, if we wanted to change the boot logo, we were forced to re-jailbreak or restore our firmware. Now we can do it during the commercial break over your wireless connection. This How To is only for jailbroken iPhones. 1. Install LogoMe which can be found in the system section in Cydia 2. Next we are going to tap on the LogoMe app and when it opens, tap start. 3. We will have to select the image you would like to use. There are a few options for selecting this image and I will cover each one for you. The image size for these images should be 320x480. 3a. The first option for selecting the image for your custom boot screen is the Image Picker. This will just take you to your camera roll and photo library to chose an image already on your phone. Next you will be asked to preview the image or flash your phone. Tap flash to install the boot image. 3b. The second option for selecting an image is to link to a photo online which the program will download to the phone. Tap Download image and enter the address of the image then press ok. You will be asked again to preview or flash. Tap flash to confirm your election. I have uploaded some boot screens I have found. The web addresses are listed at the end of the article. For this example, I have used the image at http://img25.imageshack.us/img25/4461/boot5tq9.png. 3c. The third option is to restore the original image that came with the phone. This is if you are tired of your custom boot image and want a regular boring image like everyone else. This will just ask to preview or flash. Tap flash and it will be restored to the original. You have now updated your boot image to something customized to express your individuality. I have included a link to ispazio's boot logo library. The image is more for me than anyone else, but I like to know that I have designed every aspect of my iPhone experience. http://www.spaziocellulare.com/ispazio/en/download-custom-boot-images-for-pwnage-tool-and-winpwn/
