Changing Tomtom Navigator Startup Splash Screen
Unlike the TomTom devices, creating a splash.bmp for TomTom Navigator on your PocketPC PDA doesn't work.
So here is how you change you TomTom Navigator splash screen.
- Grab a copy of "TomTom Navigator.exe" from your Pocket PC and save it to your computer.
- Make a backup copy of the exe before your start.
- Download ResHacker from http://angusj.com/resourcehacker/
- Start ResHacker and open your "TomTom Navigator.exe"
- Expand the tree view on the left side and browse to Bitmap > 120 > 1033.
(Now you see the splash screen).
- Select the 1033 and go to Action > Save Bitmap.
- Once saved, manipulate the file keeping the format, aspect ratio and the size (320x240).
- Go back to ResHacker and while the 1033 is selected, go to Action > Replace Bitmap.
- Follow the Replace Bitmap instructions then save your file.
- Copy your new "TomTom Navigator.exe" file back to your PocketPC.
- Start TomTom … VOALA … now you see your new splash screen.
