[Q] [NAND][Android] Change 2nd Bootscreen - HD2 Android Themes and Apps

I am looking for a way to change the SECOND Splash/Bootscreen. The one that comes after MGLDR and before the bootanimation.
I have searched a lot in this forum, but i can find only tutorials to change the frist splashscreen or the bootanimation.
Any help?

Agreed. I really want to know how to do this.

If you know how to edit initrd.gz, then you can change it.

Can you tell me more about that?

Now that NAND ANDROID is a reality for the HD2 I have seen users asking for Android Splash Screens so I thought I would make some and pass them on. I am also supplying the LEO Stock Splash Screen if you want to go back.
Simply follow the instructions:
1. Download the desired Splash Screen and extract the contents to a new folder on your pc.
2. Shut down your phone (doesnt matter if you have already flashed a NAND Android Rom)
3. Enter Bootloader Mode by Holding the 'Volume Down' button while briefly pressing the 'Power' button. Keep holding the 'Volume Down' button until the tri colour screen appears.
4. Plug in your usb cable so that it says 'usb' at the bottom of the screen
5. Run the CustomRuu.exe file and follow the instructions
6. When flashing is complete the phone will reboot

Initrd.gz is is found in boot partition of each build along with zImage. If you know how to gunzip and edit files inside that file, then you can change the image after magldr/before bootanimation.zip.

You need CreateG1Splash.
Tutorial is here...
http://android-dls.com/wiki/index.php?title=Creating_Splashboot_Images
Just go down half the page,download the zip. Creat an image in .png and use CreateG1Splash.exe to convert.... Next yoou need to flash it on your device.
Fastboot flash splash1 C:\Mysplash.rgb565 (if it is in your root of the C: drive).

isnt that just a stand still image? I want to make the moving thingy
the SPLASHSCREEN is the very first image. it is flashed through fastboot (and only through fastboot) and is a still image.
the BOOTSCREEN is the animated gif which is played after the splashscreen is shown, until the ui has loaded. it is a part of the rom, can be pushed via adb or flashed via update.zip.

Make an animated .gif of the right resolution (not sure exactly but I think it's anything smaller than the screen res..) and flash it to the correct folder.

I know I have posted this on another thread, but redmdc should be praised for this. Check the thread below, you can put your own bootscreen in and change other aspects in a gui.

Hmm, im not sure if its that easy. Nothings impossible, but i would think if it were easy domeone would have figured it out already (or maybe someone has). Pretty sure that image isnt anywhere in the framework-res.apk as it launches regardless of the rom you flash, right?
I can has warranty back...?

This image is indeed replaceable, there were a couple of old threads with instructions. But it doesn't affect the warranty in any way - the bootloader still shows UNLOCKED when you enter it.
nobody know about it???
I read that you can't change the bootloader.
Other people tried to change it because they wanted to erase the unlocked image

Oh not the boot animation the boot splash thats the screen before the boot animation, the lg logo i want to chance that
To the best of my knowledge it can be changed but it will require quite a lot of work and some googling. I believe the boot splash is contained within bootloader, which I believe is a boot.IMG ull have extract that find the files to replace. The hard part is the files are not just jpgs or pngs they are a obscure image format a quick Google showed someone found a way of converting them but the rest is up to you
Look for initlogo.rle. It is a file loaded by init on each boot, if it exists. It is located in root and by default you won't find it and you have to create one. You have to un- and repack the boot.img to edit that file.
The file has a special format. For more information, look here.
Also, keep in mind that this will not change the LG logo built into the bootloader. With our knowledge so far, it cannot be changed.

Change "Facebook" HBOOT Logo

With the HBOOT provided by Moonshine (or any other method), is it possible to change the "Facebook" logo displayed when the phone first powers on before the boot animation? I'd ask this in the actual Moonshine thread, but I don't have the post count.
You can just change the HTC_bootup.zip file that's located in /system/customize/resource/
It's best if you send the file to your dropbox and then just edit what you want and then overwrite it back on to your device.

Thanks, but that changes the bootanimation, which I've already done. I'm talking about before that. The first image you see when the phone powers on.

Change bootsplash troubleshooting

Hello, I am new to xda and I hope you can help me
I changed the bootsplash of my s10 with TWRP following this tutorial.
It works well as you can see in boot_aston.jpg. But after this screen I have another samsung one as you can see in boot_samsung.jpg.
Is it possible to edit or delete this screen ?
EDIT 1 : I decompressed the up_param tar to see what was inside and it seems that the samsung screen isn't in there...

there must be another place that you need to change the file the bootloader is looking for if its showing you 2 different pictures.

This is what I deduced too. But I'm totally a noob on the Android bootloader so I don't know where to look for that second image. I have already searched everywhere on XDA but no one seems to be talking about it ...
SOLUTION :
When rooted in a adb shell, delete the system/media/bootsamsung.qmg file.
Works perfectly for me

well, there ya go! i assume that by deleting the second image it no longer thinks it has 2 to display thereby making it just use that one the user wanted in the first place
In up_param.bin image.jpg and image svb_orange.jpg need be the same.
I have a feeling that's just the stock boot animation
But I like that Aston Martin boot splash,can I get one for the s10e
