Easy way to change your bootscreen *Updated 4/11/11* Pushboot 3.0!!!

Well, people keep posting in this thread so I figured I would do a very very large update. I know its been 7 months, and for that I apologize, been very busy and this wasn't a priority.
Now, its one version of Pushboot for everyone. Load it up, follow the directions and you should be set.
Remember to start you need:
-HTC Drivers installed
-A working bootanimation.zip
-An mp3 file if you want boot sound
-Your phone plugged in to the usb port (lol)
-Only ONE .zip and/or .mp3 in the folder containing pushboot
Other than that, I included everything needed to make this work.
Any issues let me know and I can try to help you out!
And leave feedback and if you like this, press the thanks button on this post =D

Yeah, I found this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697527
I made a simple bat file that does almost everything for you...which I didnt see in that thread anywhere.
So feel free not to be a **** right away and assume I am someone who doesn't know how to use a forum...Thanks

Thanks a lot for this. might come in handy.

Updated this to make it much easier, and to include a sound file if you want.

Re: Easy way to change your bootscreen *updated*
BTW thanks OP, but maybe you should try to post this at the apps / themes board.

Personally, I found the batch process that you created very useful. Thank you OP.
Note:
It's a moderator responsibility to exact organization, control & relocation. They are often very busy but fear not, they will manage the forum to better effective.
But for the sake of camaraderie among us phone-lovers, lets not self-deputize ourselves in a moderator capacity. Less than friendly "assistance" can and has deterred others from posting potentially very useful information. Growth excels when we help each other to become better...

Thanks OP. Helped me a lot.

I changed PushBoot so everything needed is included.
Basically, upzip, put your zip file (and if you want an mp3 file) into the folder
plug in your phone
open pushboot.bat
follow the prompts
(make sure that when the phone goes into recovery that you wait till it connects to your pc before continuing)
and you should have a custom boot animation and boot sound!
Any problems, let me know
I also included the dancing android bootscreen and the nexus one bootscreen.

i'm fully rooted and this method is not working for me. it doesn't load the sound or the boot animation.

Fixed for full root
Fullroot users use pushboot2.bat
otherwise, just use pushboot.bat

i'm getting no audio on pushboot2 and i'm fully rooted. at the end i just see echo then echo then the program closes. no reboot is done to my phone.

well first of all I JUST reuplaoded a new zip, so get that (forgot to hide all the random code)
also, I assume you put an mp3 in the folder right?
and to reboot you have to choose reboot in your recovery on the phone

I cant get mine to work, it placed my boot stuff in the media folder
where does the bootanimation.zip have to be because it keeps saying that it missing. Where does the bootanimation have to be on my computer or sdcard?

Keep up the good work, I like the ease of the process.

Re: Easy way to change your bootscreen *updated for fullroot!*
On your computer in the same folder as pushboot.bat is where the bootanimation.zip and SPC_animation_final.mp3 has to be.

Good job OP, I'll give it a shot later, using now the custom boot from Fresh 0.3 ROM.

OP ~ Thanks for spending your time putting this script together. I've learned from it. I also showed it to my friend who just picked up an EVO and he's now learned a bit about ADB as well.

Very useful, thank you very much. timothydonohue: lol.

OP you have any composed boot screens we could try out with this trick? I mean I'd like to see if I can follow your steps with a good working bootimg. before I go trying to make some of my own....baby steps for me
Also TimD, brother you need to chill out and stop drinking 5 hour energy..... this is the correct place for this post not buried in 700 pages of the detritus that fills most of these threads.

Re: Easy way to change your bootscreen *updated for fullroot!*
Thanks OP! Will def give it a shot once I get home.

[Boot Splash] "Inspired" by Light (w/Preview Pic)

I hope you enjoy this. These are pretty easy for me to make, so if you have a request... ... At any rate, "thank" me if you like it and use it. And if you screw anything up and your phone explodes, or breaks, or Smurfs attack from outer space, it's your fault. you have been warned!
How to flash:
1. Unzip the file so you have "splash1.img" and place this file in your "tools" folder of your SDK package.
2. Boot into your bootloader (fastboot mode)
3. From the command prompt: Change directories to your SDK "Tools" folder then type:
Code:
fastboot flash splash1 splash1.img
4. Reboot and enjoy

Got a preview pic by chance. Also check your pm's.

Preview pic should be up... I see it on my end?? It's HUGE. lol..
Anyone else not see the pic?
EDIT: Just checked the OP on a different PC, and pic WAS NOT showing up. This has now been corrected. ...

How do we revert to default, if desired?

You will have to re-flash the default boot splash. Using the same method as mentioned.
Note: I will update the OP with the stock Boot splash as well, once I receive my phone.

OK, stupid question time (my specialty) I get into the Inspire bootloader OK, but then how do I call up or otherwise access "command prompt"? It's not like I have a menu button I can push, and command prompt doesn't seem to be one of the options displayed on the screen. I may be overlooking the obvious, and if so I apologize.

What T.A.G. was referring to was using the command prompt in Windows. This would also be used in conjunction with having the Android SDK installed in Windows.

I have not tried it. So as of right now, the official answer is NO. If you decide to try anyway, it's at your own risk. I'm not responsible if your phone becomes a pretty brick.

Fastboot + Recoveries (My Gift To You)

You can get it from here:
Fastboot + Recoveries.7z
I decided because it get's a little tad difficult to find what you might want or need for Recoveries and Fastboot, (I had a B**** of a time myself )
I'd thought it would be nice to offer my assitance, (because I haven't done a d**n thing to contribute since I bought the Q )
So here's a list of nice things I elegantly made for you (Don't ban me mods :angel: :fingers-crossed: )
*What To Do*
For A Little Assistance:
Linux: go to folder and "Right Click" Click on "Terminal/Konsole"
Type "su" (without quotes)
Then copy/paste any of the following (not anything in parentheses)
fastboot flash recovery open_recovery.img (Open Recovery's Mod) (Skrilax_CZ)
or
fastboot flash recovery cwm.img (Clockwork's Mod) (Shabby Penguin)
or
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img (Team Win Recovery Pro) (arrrghhh)
or
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (Stock Recovery Image) (dunno)
Windows: Go to folder and press "SHIFT and Right Click" run command window (or something close to it)
Then any of the upper ones
Mac: I don't know how to use it, but hey it's here.
Oh yeah thanks to falln Saint, I have my favorite boot logo
It's an android popping it's head out on the Moto with the phone name underneath
fastboot flash logo moto.img
Hope I helped, Have fun :good:

P.S. I only made it easier to find the files, I didn't create them.
Real credit goes to the members on XDA who work their a** off to help us out. :highfive:
P.P.S. I don't come here often, but if there is any problems, I will answer them as fast as i can.

Why not just link to the thread, where you got the recovery? Including them all in one big .7z file doesn't make a lot of sense - if TWRP or OpenRecovery are updated, that .7z file you have is now outdated...
Just a thought - interesting to see the stock recovery tho!

Thanks arrrghhh, I just thought to make this simple as possible.
But I do like what is going on with the new roms, I have AOKP because Carbon kept glitching on me and deleting my savedata and setting it under a folder called 0

This isn't a glitch, it's a "feature" with 4.2.2.... Unfortunately the more 4.2.2 ROM's you flash, the more this feature will become apparent.

Yeah I realized that, but Unicorns are for Gangsters.
And I might go back to carbon, if it didn't delete my info even when I reboot normally after flashing. But thanks for your hard work.
Any way I can be a beta tester for any upcoming products?

I had about 7 "0" folders when I browsing my phone's files looking for a cache'd boot logo...it was like one of those russian dolls with a smaller and smaller doll inside and could not figure out what the heck was going on, lol. Ended up deleting all but the first parent and didn't seem to cause any issues....free'd up a good gig or two of internal storage space! Good to know now what the cause of this was as I was experimenting with a lot of different recoveries around the time this happened. Thanks^^

Argh! I came to this thread hoping for a nice, organized place to find all the links/downloads I needed to fix my girlfriends phone.
Now I have to read, AND continue my search for the files. (mild sarcasm)

[Stock][XMLs] Stock Firmware

Hello,
I wanted to go ahead and post a location of firmwares available for download at all times. The general site is called MotoFirmware.center and it is full of XMLs and RSDlite files. These files are official Motorola packages on an unofficial site. These should only be used in a last case scenario and no one is to blame but yourself.
Device Folder - http://motofirmware.center/files/category/103-moto-x-3rd-generation/
Out the box firmware - http://motofirmware.center/files/fi...1_lph23116-18_cid9_subsidy-default_cfcxmlzip/
Flashing instructions. (Generalised with assumptions that you have fastboot and drivers installed)
1. Download the latest firmware
2. Extract the zip file
3. Open up a terminal in extracted location.
4. Use the fastboot commands found in the txt document in order!
5. Type in the command "fastboot format userdata"
6. Type in the command "fastboot format cache"
7. Finally type in "fastboot reboot" and enjoy.
MotoFirmware spends countless hours searching for the latest firmware and is dedicated to keeping these firmwares available on a server that works. We appreciate your help in teaching others rather then providing tools as we feel the general knowledge of fastboot & adb can be valuable tools down the road. Please, do not rehost any files from our site. We work very hard in finding these and pride ourselves on not hosting unofficial software.

As a heads up, we are in the middle of a server change so files may fail to download or time out until Sept 18th. That is worse case scenario.

Reserved.

Awesome thanks!

Which file do you get the fastboot commands from? Only txt file doesn't have them.
I'm assuming use the flashfile xml and take out the extra wording?
Thanks

Yes it says which file goes with which partition,

ok was going good till I got to the recovery.img it keeps saying invalid and fails

Is your bootloader unlocked?

Thanks finally got it last night. I'm thinking I was having computer issues. I don't know what the deal was, when a section would fail I would reflash it.
It seemed unplugging the USB from the computer and back in would help. Almost like it was losing communication with the phone.

Is there a RSDlite version?

I don't use RSDlite I believe it is there but I recommend fastboot

It's working here fine.

Ill Try again, I was getting timed out, but will try right now

So quick question -- I'm familiar with fastboot commands, but I've never run into the system.img being split up into system.img_sparsechunk files.
If I'm reading the XML file right, would you just individually flash each piece to the system partition, ie:
1. flashboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
2. flashboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
3. etc.
or is there a specific way to combine the sparsechunks into a whole system.img beforehand?

Do you plan on taking Style backups/firmwares? I imagine they are slightly different to Pure Editions (despite basically being the same thing).

Papi92, just wanted to let you know that the ZIP file shows as corrupt when downloaded. Around 950 mb downloaded, it stops, shows as a complete download, and when you try yo open the ZIP, it says corrupted file.
Tried to download it with 3 different computers with 2 different browsers, all with the same result.

Let me check. Sounds like it timed out for you. Hit report file and I'll see if my mods concur.

Change Splash/Boot Logo for OnePlus 7 Pro???

Is there currently a working solution to change boot logo/splash on the OnePlus 7 pro???
I have scoured the internet & XDA and haven't found anything on the subject besides a general guide for Snapdragon devices and SplashInjector. I used the directions on the general guide to extract (for op7pro we have all these) Splash, LOGO_a & LOGO_b and will attach files. However the OP of said thread hasn't been responding or continuing to make/find solutions. Thread can be found here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...en-for-snapdragon-devices-splash-img.3470473/. SplashInjector is a git bash program that runs on Linux and to a good extent Windows, created by EthanBanker2042, @makers_mark, boblagus but it only works for OnePlus devices up to the 5. I used it to mod the splash of my OnePlus 5 on Windows and it worked great. Find it here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/tool-splashinjector-op5.3650374/post-73282055.
I was hoping to find a dev or someone with more knowledge/skills than myself who has or is willing to create a solution for modding the splash/boot logo on our OnePlus 7 Pro devices. I imagine it would be somewhat more complicated than on previous devices due to treble A/B structure. I found in /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/ 3 related files: 'Splash', 'LOGO_a' & 'LOGO_b'. My guess is that LOGO_a & LOGO_b are the same, and are the actual splash image of the OnePlus logo in the center with "powered by Android" at the bottom and 'Splash' might be the bootloader unlocked screen, however I'm not totally sure. I used FX file explorer to view binary of the files and the 'Splash' was, as far as it would show (file too large to completely display), nothing. However, the LOGO_a/b files state "Splash" at the beginning and contain actual data beyond 0's.
If anyone has any relevant information I would be very grateful. I am ready and willing to set time aside to help/work on this as much as needed.
Thanks in advance
*My device that files were extracted from is a GM-1910

Attached is the 'Splash.img' extracted from /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/Splash.

No, currently there is no known working method to decompile the "LOGO_a" & "LOGO_b" omg files. Sorry, hopefully someone will come along and add support to the aforementioned "SplashInjector" got bash utility, as I believe this would be the easiest method. Good luck!
