    1. The program that runs the boot video.

    2 & 3. There's a very good tutorial here (but must register to see):

    http://www.symbian-freak.com/forum/v...p?f=50&t=41091

    ...or if you know some basic linux, it's simpler to just do this:

    Use the browser to download the video to the phone.
    Become root.
    Do a 'cp' command to put the video in:

    /usr/share/hildon-welcome/media

    Then use vim or your favorite editor to do a quick edit to:

    /etc/hildon-welcome.d/default.conf

    Add a line for your new downloaded boot video and just comment out the original 'hands' video. Boom - done! I put claesbas' Maemo flyby video from the beginng of this thread on mine.

    Or simply install the bootcreen application - http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...8&postcount=69

    Doh! I'd forgotten that was available now. Wasn't back when I changed mine.

    Dude, there is a nice app VDVsx made.
    just activate the devel program catalogue and search for bootloader.
