Hi mandraker,

First of all let me tell you all the options available for splash screens.

  <preference name="ShowSplashScreenSpinner" value="true" />
  <preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="2000"/>
  <preference name="FadeSplashScreenDuration" value="2000"/>
  <preference name="auto-hide-splash-screen" value="false" />

Other than this you will not have any other modification to the splash screen.

You can not add any images for splash screen spinner.

Hi man, first thank you for your answer,

my config.xml file is like this :

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?> Projekt1 An Ionic Framework and Cordova project. Your Name Here

If your config.xml file looks like above, then you are in serious problem, As your config.xml is not having proper information regarding your application.

Try to install new ionic application using

ionic start myapp

command and compare your config.xml file with that newly created application and then made the required changes in your config.xml file.

i don’t know if the copy/paste does well so i put again the information you ask :

<preference name="loglevel" value="DEBUG" />
<preference name="webviewbounce" value="false" />
<preference name="UIWebViewBounce" value="false" />
<preference name="DisallowOverscroll" value="true" />
<preference name="SplashScreenDelay" value="5000" />
<preference name="FadeSplashScreenDuration" value="1000" />
<preference name="android-minSdkVersion" value="16" />
<preference name="BackupWebStorage" value="none" />

OK, but if you want to change the image of the spinner on splash screen than it would not be possible but you can always hide the spinner on splash screen

<preference name="ShowSplashScreenSpinner" value="false" />

Just add above mentioned code in your config.xml.

But change in spinner on splash screen is not possible.
