Hi all
Well, it's probably stupid to want to change the boot logo but ... it's awfull and I want to understand. I know it's risky too ...
The facts:
- First, I identified how to save the file from photoshop to have the same binary file : Export for device with options transparency & no metadata & no color profile. Saving the original logo.png this way give the same one (binaries are exactly the same). Saving the file the standard way give different binary file.
- it's a 32bits png ( I think 24 bits colors+8bits transparency), in the header appears "Photoshop Image ready" so it was made with photoshop ...
- Then I tried to flash a simple logo.png (modded from original) with a size lower than 4kb like the orginal. Just puting the logo.png in a tar file and flashing as one package with Odin.
- At boot, the original black&white logo appeared ... hhhmmm, strange ! There was no warning message in Odin.
- Then I tried to flash a colored logo of 6Kb, a 100% transparent one lower than 1Kb, and ... same thing ... the original samsung logo appeared !
- I just made an image of /dev/block/bml3 (see attached) with dd command. The partition size for logo.png is 512Kb, so in theorry we can make a nice boot logo ...
- If you edit the attached file, you will see 2 strange things : GT-I8315HG01L phone model appears in the header (this information is not in logo.png), and the logo.png file appears twice in the partition !
?????????
Anybody wants to make the quest ?
it would be good to see if other people have the same partition structure, then just type:
dd if=/dev/block/bml3 of=/cache/bml3.bin bs=1
then pull it to your computer and have a look.
Ok now. You actually flashed bootloaders so many times just to check??

The logo.png only comes into play when flashed with bootloaders I suppose. Correct me if am wrong.

exactly !
When XXJPS appears it was an oportunity to test that so I flashed the whole package (with bootloaders and with my modded logo.png).
After that I only flashed logo.png.

The CM7 port for galaxy 5 has a modified bootlogo
It displays "android" on the screen, no samsung logo
Look into it Maybe you will know what to change..

I beleive the png is displayed by the s3c framebuffer driver, builtin the kernel.
The image has to be converted in a special format : look this repo to get the tool : https://github.com/morfic/Samsung-logo
G5 devs have activated the framebuffer console, I guess. That's why you can read "android" on the screen at boot up.
It's possible to activate the framebuffer console in the g3 kernel.

The image is converted yes, the binary code in bml3 is totaly different from the png. Samsung makes things complicated when it could be easyer ...
It's possible to flash a modded logo on the GT-I5700, something have changed on i5800.
But this doesn't explain why a modded logo is ignored during flash !

No, but you have to recompile kernel.
If you look in the kernel source, video/s3cfb.c :
Code:
#if defined(CONFIG_FB_S3C_LMS300)||defined(CONFIG_FB_S3C_S6D04D1)
#include "android_logo_rgb16.h"
#endif
The image is in the rgb16 format ... The morfic's tool should be modified to convert the image in rgb16.
It's also possible that the booloader show the samsung's logo ... Why ? I tried one time to activate framebuffer console and I could see the samsung's logo while kernel was loading.

I don't know if bml3 is really used ... maybe you waste your time.
It seems that the image is in the kernel itself ... so you have to compile your own kernel with the new image converted by morfic's tool.

I think it's more like that. The logo appears quickly, perhaps before the end of kernel boot.

5801 users knows that flashing bootloader changes the bootlogo..
But if the kernel is able to show a bootlogo then you could put your own bootlogo right after samsung's one.

CANCELLED! GOT A NEW PHONE
Tried so many methods , non worked , I'd keep trying until one works , then I could port hTC Aria's CM10 to hTC HD MINI and redo all this again so that we can have 4.1 on our devices. Till then , I'd love it if munjeni or schlund helped me with the process , because it seems that the kernel extracted from boot.img needs modification , and that every OS needs its own initrd , I hope someone can help.
Update:
I found the required file's details , I have the ramdisk , I have the system.ext2 , what I'm missing is the required kernel , 3.0.1 , I just need a download link to that kernel, can't seem to find any.
Hi,
So I recently got into Android Development and so far , everything is good.
What I'm doing is using munjeni's CM9 ROM as a base for me to get the boot.img and the files in the folder /system/.
I tried to use iPlasm's CM9 ROM but I got some extraction problems , which I'll look into later.
I'm also using the initrd found in Shlund's posts , and the original HD Photon (Froyo 2.2).
I compared the two initrds and found out that the Froyo one was smoother and had lots of unnecessary stuff and that the CM7 one is better , but it may freeze , so I'm going to test both for maximum results.
To-Do:-Ability to Extract zImage from boot.img Done
-Extract system files Done
-Put System Files into system.ext2 Done
-Use shlund's both kernels and see which one works.
-Create a system.ext2
-Extend Data.ext2's size to allow higher storage on higher SD cards.
If you are willing to help on this project...then please help me with these:
I need an empty system.ext2 in ext3 format (so I can put the system files inside).
Or I need someone to be able to empty the system.ext2 that I have which I got from the Froyo 2.2.
Problems :Currently I'm facing these problems that may get fixed later:
Cannot delete bin and xbin from system.ext2 , which leads to files to be read when they are not needed.
No empty system.ext2 file present.
Cannot Modify the initrd to increase the space , looking forward to use this code:
When using the kernel from munjeni (extracted) all what happens is G1 logo appearing and nothing else.
Bases :
zImage from mujeni's CM9 from boot.img
iPlasm's boot.img
initrd from either schlund's CM7.2 or shlund's Froyo 2.2
/system/ from munjeni's CM9
HARET_PHOTON7227.exe from PhotonAndroid Developement
Startup File from schlund's Startup.
All help appreciated
I found a 200mb system.ext2 , however , whenever i put files in it , the next time I mount it I loose everything I put inside , but everything deleted remains deleted. -_-
Glad to see you're trying to do some,
You should not try cm7 kernel with CM9, You're trying to make CM9 SDcard version so forget about cm7 kernel (you may do only for comparing)
please, try the munjeni's boot.img from (update 04.Jun. for rom 24.May.2012) or mine, because the munjeni's rom (24.May.2012) boot.img is older kernel. the new one includes bluetooth fix (NOT Handset Car).
what i see in system.ext2 i don't think you should empty or even use them, it should be writing in command (terminal) that will create those files into EXT2 file.
here is an example: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055923
You can collect more informations in HTC HD2 forums which include SDCard versions,
Have fun,
Will try that , because the kernel from munjeni showed me .T...Mobile and then did nothing. hopefully yours work
I just tried your way iplasm , and guess what , I get the same splash screen G1 TMobile.
any thoughts?

Sorry to say that, this htc mini is not my phone, so I'm so limited to work on it. especially going back to windowsmobile for testing sdcard again. :silly:
Let me say, are you still using both these together froyo and merging them with other? don't do that.. this won't work. froyo things with other ROMs won't work!
You should do one ROM for it's settings, don't catch another things, for example froyo or things.
just those files be their,
1- HARET.exe
2- STARTUP.TXT
and begin to do, and choose the only one ROM you want to make it SDCard version,
about splash screen, it means you didn't applied them correctly, because none of these bootscreen include t-mobile,
I remember the cotulla's version was include AT&T splash screen.

I found the problem , I'm using a new system.ext2 created by me , I put the /system/ files of yours inside , then I took the kernel from your rom , and then I used schlund's initrd (because I compared it to the original initrd and found that the only differences were in :
1-splash screen
2-mounting the sd or mounting the ext/sd
3-order of command execution)
so I found out the Cotulla (the original creator of the init inside the initrd.gz ) has put a G1 .T...Mobile splash screen , and when the kernel is loaded , it is loading it as rom , not as sd boot so it launches the splash screen instead of launching the android bootloader , I'll have a look and see and luckily munjeni will reply to the pm I sent him (he helped me with creating the system.ext2 and the initrd)

Hi,
may you help me with something?

however , I cannot seem to be able to extract the zImage , but I did extract the boot.img and the initrd .
In order for me to make it SD Boot , I should allow SD boot from zImage , but I can't open , do you think you can do that for me?

look, zImage is Kernel, you're doing to open Kernel.. zImage isn't an Archive file. so You don't need to edit or open zImage
Boot.img contains RAMDISK & Kernel, RAMDISK=intrd.gz, Kernel=zImage
You will need to extract the Boot.img from CM9, and convert them to initrd.gz and zImage,

ok I already did that , but the zImage extracted from CM7 , doesn't match the zImage from CM7 SD Boot (same ROM , same Dev , diff size).
So I wanna extract the zImage so I can modify the Boot section to SD Boot.
it's not easy to edit kernels, just a Q: have you tried from extracted cm9 two files the kernel & ramdisk and rename them to zimage and initrd.gz to SDCard and see results?

I don't think there is. Maybe I'm wrong too.
Basically all these boot.img tools are written in shell/bash and is made specifically to run in Linux distros.
Anyways there is an Android app called, Complete Linux Installer that lets you install any Linux OS in your phone. But I doubt whether boot.img tools work, as it needs various library files for it to work.
On a side note, I guess it would be more complex to do it in phone rather than in PC, if there is some way for it to work.

Thank you for your reply, but do you feel strange that the IMG is created by the recovery, so it is rational that there is a tool about IMG building. then why there is no apk. I mean some professional can extract just from the CWM recovery, I think.
need root
if you wanna get boot.img i think you must be rooted.

Nooooo
boot.img is the kernel (zImage + Ramdisk packed into an image file) that lies in the /boot partition
@ OP - If you want to extract boot.img itself, there are various methods and from CWM recovery like you said. I thought you were mentioning about how to unpack the contents of the boot.img say like zImage, Ramdisk and other files.

It could be done using this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20227868&postcount=1124 and a hex editor from play store on your phone. But would be even more fiddly than on pc I would imagine, unless your phone has a largish screen. It could be done though.
If editing the ramdisk, you would need to unpack and repack after editing, which usually requires linux. I recently found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2036528 for PC, but have not had a chance to try it yet, seems best solution for OP

Hello.
I'm trying to customize the Boeffla Kernel (I9305 port) with a custom splash screen.
I've worked out that I need to use a initlogo.rle file at the root of the ramdisk, however I can't get the image to display properly.
I've atached two images, the first image is what the splash screen is supposed to look like, the second image is a photo of my phone showing how the image turns out.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated
That typically happens when you're using the wrong size to convert the image. Make sure you're using 720x1280 and not any other resolution

What are you using to convert the image to an RLE file?

Using a PNG to RLE converter that I found on XDA. I dare say that somehting was encoded bad for this to happen.
If I knew exactly how it was to be encoded (or had the right encoder) I would be right hopefully.
It's just that I would probably want to create more splashes in the future, and even though I'd be grateful if this file was fixed, I'd also like to know how to make them properly in future
Here lies the catch: RLE is a means of encoding anything.
IF my memory doesn't fail me, you need a RAW file encoded in RLE. Now, you might need a RGB565 RAW file...

Still seem to be having the same issues.
Is it possible since there was no initlogo.rle there that it isn't properly supported by the kernel?
I know that it does show something when I put one there, but maybe there's something that needs adding to show it properly.
I've been digging the source code looking for logo loading code... and i suspect we MIGHT be missing something, i'm failing to find this instruction: load_565rle_image

So it might not support that format at all by stock. It's weird how it does read that file though.

4. flash through fastboot
HTML:
fastboot flash logo logo_new.img
5. Enjoy!
How to restore
Just flash logo.img in official fastboot ROM .

Yes. You should keep the original image height and width, and color depth. If you see file size reduced after saving, it's okay as long as you do not change pixels and color depth.
I recall, for example, 01.bmp extracted is around 20M but after you save it it's just around 5M. Feel safe, it's correct.
The newly generated logo binary file should be 19.5M, according to my memory. I don't have that file on hand now.
And if you broke it, you'll end up with a strange bootloader UI (with volume keys to select different modes), but don't worry, just flash a correct logo.bin and you'll make it running again.

Alright , thank you again for that awesome explanation . Have a nice week !
Anyone has a "Mix" logo just like the boot animation?
Hi , i don't know why
But whenever i flash the logo.img created by your program.(even when using images you provided)
It always booted into a weird bootloader interface.
i'm on miui 9.6 china.
Wonder if anything has to do with this?
Can you help fix it?
Thanks!!!
Hello,
I will use this to remove the "unlocked" message at boot.
It's possible to simply copy 01.bmp to 03.bmp then recompile the image? (I ask due to size of 01.bmp is higher than 03.bmp)
Thanks

I'd like to do that as well, "unlocked" seems so damn wrong to be displayed

I've created this Mix2s image (https://mega.nz/#!51UDyQoT!3b9sL2j4dNDW8WUNck39xVfNNuClqED2rZGw7kU5ZQs) using the files from OP to remove the "unlocked" message on boot splash.
You can use it if you want...

Ready to use file? hmm
So it's just "fastboot flash logo xiaomi_mix2s_logo_image_removing_unlocked_message.img"
How safe is this? did you use the very same file?
Of course, I have used the same file that I've uploaded to my mega and is working fine. You can use it or generate using the op generator, but in any case I'm not responsible if you brick your device, blah, blah, blah...

Nice, ill put my contact information to make it harder to sell if it gets stolen or lost
Any chance this can be updated for the new format? New logo won't overwrite the bootloader splash.

Great idea, so:
Fastboot, boot image etc ...with details, orange fox(instead of twrp) with pin locked and rom locked displaying personal info
This won't be an easy sale if stolen(hopefully not)
