Root virgin mobile boot animation reappeared

[Sublime420]

i just flashed the new backside rom BACKside-IHO-VM670 jan 10 2012..i was using Bobzhome rom .. now the Virgin mobile boot animation plays and so does the iho boot animation. how do i get rid of the virgin mobile one?

You can't get rid of it. I think jerry said he will get rid of it next build. I posted about this in the ROM thread.

When I flashed this ROM I got the virgin mobile pre boot animation instead of the other thing that said IHO backside 7.1. Was this intentional?

EDIT:: Actually just rebooted again. The IHO backside 7.1 thing still pops up. Then the virgin mobile boot animation comes on. Then the boot animation I choose from UOTkitchen comes up.

Yeah, LeslieAnn just figured out the issue with the RLE conversion process last nite. She originally posted instructions stating a RAW image was need for the conversion, turns out it's PNG, so the next build will have 7.2 on the bootlogo, and I may make a new first bootanimation as well.

Yeah, tdm figured out how to enable charging while powered off, and it was the same for the first bootanimation, so we enabled it as well. You can now charge your phone with the power turned off.

I plan on creating my own first bootanimation for BACKside, or I may just disable it altogether in a future build, depends on feedback.

Could I use a file explorer to delete the bootimages folder?

I'm not sure if that will work, or if the initrd will recreate them, since they are packed in with kernel, not the system files. Experiment and let me know what happens.

Oh, well, in that case it might or might not. I'll check a little bit later, got some doctor appointments today.

Okay, I lied. I just tested, and it came right back. Irritating for themers, but quite efficient from a system standpoint.

I never really used the powered off charging, even before I rooted, it always irritated me a little, bit don't get me wrong, it is a nice feature, especially for all the newcomers that prefer to charge their phone when powered off, so I say keep that feature in all future builds.
