Anyone notice we have other boot screens packed away in our phones?

So in my quest to make the phone more unique after rooting, I was EXTREMELY tired (after 4 days of ownership) tired of the stupid sprint sound and logo both before and after shutdown...

I found a thread where someone has the normal Samsung boot animation and right before I was about to install the 3 files into system\media. I took note of something.

We have multiple boot screens by default (or at least my Sprint phone does)

Ours are indicated by the SPR_bootfilename.

You can see the stock Samsung boot images.

Then I had BST, crypt, VMU, XAS...etc

So I first labeled all the SPR_bootsamsung images .bak hoping they would not then run, and in fact they did not. The stupid yellow spring flag logo went away and it just showed the fading sprint.

I then looked at the following and you can see where I was testing the file names and changed somethings.

VMU, is the Virgin Mobile boot screen.
BST has some super bright orange screen that says LTE.
Crypt has a really simple but cool green lock that has a circle spinning around it.
XAS didn't have anything and just defaulted to the Samsung boot.

I deleted the VMU and BST. Thinking I might run the crypt because it's super simple and clean looking.

My one question is that by default if I label anything SPR_ it will run that first, where should I look to change the script so that it would just run look at the normal Samsung file name instead of the SPR_.

Apologies if this is super old news but I thought it was interesting to say the least.
