Custom Boot and Recover Logo WITHOUT Restore

Note: you do need to have both a mac and PC (PC is only used to convert .png files to .img2 files, i currently dont know of one for a mac)


- Download this Firmware Tool (more info here) that allows you to convert .png files to .img2 files (.img2 files are the files that the PwnageTool uses for boot and recovery)

- Convert your custom pics to the .img2 format with names 'logo.img2' and 'recovery.img2'

- 'Show Package Contents' of PwnageTool 1.1

- Navigate to '/Contents/Resources/iPwner/'

- Replace the 'logo.img2' and the 'recovery.img2' files with your custom ones

- Put your iPhone into recovery mode

- Open PwnageTool

- Select Firmware

- Select iPwner (re-pwn your iPhone if you already pwned it)

- Done!

Now you have new custom boot and recovery logos WITHOUT restoring your iPhone.

Hope this helps!
(dont forget to say thanks )

Yeah... but you then create a custom firmware right and restore it using the custom firmware via iTunes right? So... either way using Pwnage.. u will still restore right?

Am i Missing the whole point? I'm really confused with the whole pwnage thing...

the restore takes a little more than a sec, lol. iPwner is def a lot shorter and its pointless to restore your iPhone when you want to change just the boot / recovery logo thats why i suggested this method. i dunno, just my two cents....
