Default VAgCOM change splash screen

Is their a way to change the splash screen on the A6 to have other start up graphics or switch to the S6 version or color schemes? Either on the dash or the MMI screens?

I've accomplished this on my '11 A4 with the VCDS tool. There are several choices, IIRC, that you can select. It's likely you can do it on the C7 cars.

You could try the following, which is from the B8 forum:

Audi MMI welcome screen change (boot logo 2G, 3G) - mr-fix.info

Turn key into II position and wait for the MMI 3G system to start. You can also use keyless buttons.
2.Press and hold buttons SETUP and CAR.
3.After couple of seconds hidden green menu will appear. You can now release the buttons.
4.Navigate to car → carcodingvehicle → configuration line.
5.Choose one of 5 options available.
6.Navigate to Update Splashscreen.
7.Press RETURN and CAR buttons at the same time to exit hidden green menu.

This is probably what I did, I have MMI (low). I'll confirm tonight.


Change radio Concert/Symphony splash screen:


According to capvag at A5OC.com
(http://www.a5oc.com/forums/showthrea...68/index3.html)


changing in module 56 - Radio byte 12, setting bit 0 from 0 to 1 results in an "S5" logo on the splash screen (the startup screen on the radio), setting bit 1 from 0 to 1, results in an "RS" splash screen. Setting both bits 0 and 1 from 0 to 1 results in an "S" logo.

Yeah, pretty sure you can do this, but I wouldn't want to be a posur and make mine an RS6 if I don't have one...

Oh BTW, I just posted the following on the D3 forum and thought this might be applicable here:

Not going to take credit for this, but a little on-line search yields the following:

Skrypty dla MMI 3G Basic LOW HIGH - Audi A4 B8 - Audi A4 Klub Polska

I used a translate program and got the following:

Some useful operations on the MMI can execute using scripts that are run from the SD card. The author of the scripts is DUK63 from the Russian forum club-q5.ru, dostosowałem them only to our terms and conditions (Polish descriptions and separate versions for the resolution of Basic and High/3 g +).

The scripts are run identically regardless of the version, all the information will also be displayed on the screen.
1. Download the required archive and unpack it to a blank SD card formatted as FAT32, everything must be found in the root directory of the card
2 start the MMI (insert the key or the engine, it's important that MMI like uruchmiło)
3. We are waiting for 3 minutes to MMI completely launched
4. Insert SD card into slot
5. You should see the Welcome screen
6. Press any button , for example. in the ****
7. Wait a moment, when the script finishes we will becoming a message telling you how to reset the MMI
8. Press any button. in ****
9. Wait for about a minute and then pull out the card from the slot
10. Reset the MMI (Setup + button in the upper-right + down next to the ****)

Version for MMI 3 g High/3 g + (but only for version 9411):
Skrypt_Menu_Serwisowe_3G_High.zip - Download - UPLOADUJ.net

Custom boot screen (splash) with this script you can upload your own startup screen appears when you start the MMI.

Splash picture. PNG in resolution:
• for MMI Basic-400x240
• for MMI High – 800 x 480

Image to be saved under the name URstartup_generic.png in the folder on the SD card splashscreens. Sample splash is already in the archive. After the backup folder on the card you will find the default startup screens saved with MMI, so just in case someone wanted to go back to the original it copies it as URstartup_generic.png to the folder splashscreens and runs the script again.

Version for MMI 3 g High/MMI 3 g +:
Skrypt_Ekran_Startowy_3G_High.zip - Download - UPLOADUJ.net

If someone is conversant in Polish and can do a better job than I at translation, please feel free to edit. Also, looking forward to seeing someone actually do this and posting the results for all.

Holy crap. This is pretty awesome and suggests more capability than I thought possible from the system.

Do you have a direct link for the script? Looks like it's missing here. I'd like to read what it's doing.
