For everyone out there having problems creating your own logos, I thought I would try to list the steps as simple as possible, to hopefully help everyone figure out how to do it. I will assume you use Hex Workshop (
www.hexworkshop.com) since it is the easiest to do the conversion, and that you have Windows so you can work with Paint.
OK here we go:
1. Create your image in whatever program you want that can save bitmaps. Make sure the dimensions are
160x90 and it is in
8 bit color (256 colors.)
2. Open the image from step 1 in Paint. Under the
Image menu select
Flip/Rotate. Select
Flip vertical in the dialog, and click
OK.
3. Under
File, select
Save As... Give the file a name, and beside
Save as type, choose
256 Color Bitmap. Click
Save
4. Open Hex WorkShop, and open an existing CarrierLogo123.pdb.
5. Click
before the first byte, and then from the
Edit menu choose
Select Block. In the dialog that follows put
6a beside Block, and make sure
Hex is selected. Click
OK
6. Some of the bytes will now be highlighted, from the
Edit menu choose
Copy.
7. Now in Hex Workshop, open the file you saved in step 3
8. Click
before the first byte, and then from the
Edit menu choose
Select Block. In the dialog that follows put
36 beside
Block, and make sure
Hex is selected. Click
OK
9. Some of the bytes will now be highlighted, from the
Edit menu choose
Paste.
10. Now,
without changing the cursor location in the byte display, from the
Edit menu choose
Select Block. In the dialog that follows put
400 beside
Block, and make sure
Hex is selected. Click
OK
11. Some of the bytes will now be highlighted, from the
Tools menu choose
Operations, and from the sub menu choose
Byte Flip. In the dialog that follows, beside
Treat Data As choose
32 Bit Unsigned Long. Under
Apply On make sure
Selection is chosen and click
OK.
12. From the
File menu choose
Save As... and name the file
CarrierLogo123.pdb
13. HotSync to your phone and enjoy!
I hope this helps!
