Implementation

To implement it you will have to do following things.

Create the class which extends canvas
Set the color inside paint method
g.setColor(0xffffff);
In paint() first draw the Square using width and height of the mobile screen
g.fillRect(0, 0, width, height);(0xffffff);
Create Image:
sp=Image.createImage("/Splash.png");

Draw the image at the center of the screen

g.drawImage(sp, width / 2, height / 2, Graphics.VCENTER | Graphics.HCENTER);

Some applications display a splash screen using alert but that does not display it in full screen and generally this lacks the professional look.
