I am trying to find the setting on alfaobd to change the start up logo on my speedometer. It say bighorn and I just have a tradesman. Prefer to just have the ram head or it say "Ram 1500". I remember seeing a thread on here about it but can't seem to find it anywhere now.

Which one does the SRT?
I would just do the same as the instructions the guy gave me. Once you go in. It gives you quite a bit of options. I believe I seen SRT but not sure

SRT wont work on the startup screen, only on the 8.4 radio. You would select "vehicle is an SRT" and it will show SRT on the radio at startup and give you some new themes to choose from.

That is very correct. I wish they offered R/T.

Do you have any photos of the new themes? What shows on the EVIC when it starts up?

Cheers

Do these options work on a 2014 RAM 1500? It seems I remember reading that the 2014 does not have any options for changing the EVIC splash screen or the 8.4 radio startup display.

Thanks!

I dont think it works. Tried changing it for a buddy and it wouldn't work. It worked on my cousins 2016. Not sure about 2015 though

For changing the splash screen on the evic? Yes it will. As for radio, I do not know because Im still trying to find a 8.4 nav radio.

Oh that's what you meant. Nothing else will change.
Splash screen setting is for when you first start up vehicle. I upgraded from a 3.5 evic to the 7 evic. Said Longhorn on start up. Now it says Ram 1500.

Where is the vehicle configuration drop down? Anyone have a screenshot of all the drop downs? Very gun shy to start clicking on things.

Under Body Computer. Then scroll down on the next screen to Car Configuration Change.
Next box go to VehConfig2: Special Package.

Theres more than 8 pages of choices
