How to change our N6 bootscreen to match the new Google logo? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

As many of us have noticed, our N6 is still showing the old "google" logo when our devices boots up, so I ask the next question:

Is there a way to swap the old logo to make it display the new one?

sure, but not something that you can do, as you highly risk bricking your device to change it.

When I had my OnePlus One, I remember that there was a thread in the official forums that described the procedure to change the boot image, and people started posting flasheable zips that changed that.

same with the n5, but its not so simple on the n6.

With the N5, those flashable zips were actually modified bootloaders. I haven't seen such a tool here yet, though I haven't been looking. It took quite some time fter the n5 was released before that happened too. In fact I'd not long changed my bootloader before I ditched the n5 for the n6.

Yeah, I also remember flashing one of those zips on my N5.
Damn. D=

When i briefly had my Moto X 2014 dev edition, they have a flashable zip to get rid of the splash screen that had a warning about an unlocked bootloader on it, so i don't see why it can't be the same for the N6.

It all involved being able to inject the images into the bootloader. Now the motox may have a different bootloader, or even store the splash screen in a different location.
Samsung is different to HTC, who are different to LG, who are different to Moto.. But just because moto built this bootloader, doesn't mean it's the same as the other motos, because it's built to Google specifications.
Is it possible, yeah sure. It just needs to be figured out of it hasn't been already.

Use this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3000218
Done it a few times, works great!

[SOLVED BY WARRANTY - BOARD REPLACEMENT] HELP - Wrong firmware flashed on my XT1078

Hey guys, first of all i'm not a new kid on the block regarding android. In fact i'm one of the developers of crDroid Android.
Yesterday, august 11, i flashed an XT1068 on my XT1078 Moto G 4G. It boots ok, enter in fastboot and all other flashing stuffs. But my device ends with a wrong firmware inside and without any kind of data signal even wifi.
When i try to install my current firmware, fastboot shows some "downgrade" and "PIV" messages for bootloader, boot and system images.
My question is: there are a fix, workaround, hack or something for this?
My bootloader version isn't unlockable. I'm waiting an answer of motorola in that case
Any help will be very welcome
Thanks already

Hey man.
Coming from the world of flashing Nexus devices, I've gone through similar issues on both my moto x (2014) and moto g (xt1072).
Firstly, Motorola bootloaders (motoboot) don't seem to like being downgraded at all. So never do that, version numbers can be tricky to come by, so worth keeping note of.
The fact that it boots is good too.
The reason you're not getting mobile data is most likely because the new modem you flashed is incompatible with your firmware, does the xt1068 have LTE?
However the internals are basically the same as mine as far as I'm aware, so that is probably why it boots.
I've gotten those pink error messages as well on my old X, but only when I tried converting to a different model for faster updates. Never did any harm, but I do know that you never downgrade a Motorola bootloader.

Hey man!
Both devices are almost the same. The main difference is that XT1068 don't have LTE and XT1078 (mine) have.
I'm keeping contact with motorola because my device isn't unlockable (bootloader) but i don't have too much hope for a fix.
Anyway, thanks for your comment here friend!

No worries, you could just flash your baseband again and erase the modems and you should have connectivity back. Maybe your original firmware is older the than one you flashed. Probably doesn't like going backwards. Could perhaps find a newer factory image once 5.1 is released.

[BOOT LOGO] Google Logo

I put together once again (I did it first on the Moto G 2014) the Google Logo for our Moto X Play to flash it and remove the warning when unlocking the bootloader.

Download the zip folder and flash via recovery or how I prefer to do it:
Code:
Go into fastboot.
Plug in your device to your computer.
Run "fastboot flash logo logo.bin".
Reboot.
Is this to replace the warning for the boot loader? Why not just relock it

As far as I know, relocking your bootloader won't get rid of the warning. Plus, I made this to have a Google-stock-like feeling when turning on the device.

It doesn't work flashing via TWRP, the only way to do it is with adb fastboot.

You can flash any 5.5 inch.
Since we're getting rid of the bootloader warning, I should say that for Moto X Play, stock boot logo from Moto G 2014 integrates way much, much better with boot animation (same as Moto G 2014, indeed) cause it has the same green circle design, unlike the newest, plain blue material design; but I can't find it in Moto X Play size...

Perhaps because it's not really a flashable .zip, I guess...
Shoot. Sorry. Yes it gets rid of it but you can't update bootloader till you reunlock. Lol sorry for the huge delay. Life got way to busy and I have been in and out of the hospital. My apologies for not coming back to update you
I use with that bootanimation Pixel Bootanimation, looks perfect!

Post some screenshots! How's it feel?
I got it last night as well. It feels different, runs smooth. I need more time to tell if battery is better. I'm mixed on the new UI...but it will grow on me. I haven't taken any pics with it yet...but the app looks different so I am sure there are changes. I love having system wide dark mode now. Overall it is an improvement from a short test drive.

Got it on my T-Mobile V40 device as well. Just rebooted and it is installing right now.
Edit: Size is about 1.3Gb
What is Verizon doing? Why sleeps
Probably seeing what bloatware they can shove into it, first! I'm on a pre-release V40, and often get stuff right away.

Still waiting for the us unlocked version sigh
Has anyone with AT&T who did the unlock via the 9008 mode try this update? Right now my update fails, logcat shows a CRC error because boot_a was modified. I assume if I wanted to apply this update I'd need to restore boot_a and laf_a to the original copy. Then update, then unlock again via 9008 mode. Any issues with the unlock method and Android 10?
Got the T-Mobile update yesterday. The Settings page is completely reorganized and more logically arranged.

Moto G9 Play bricked by booting wrong twrp?

Hello forum, if someone could help me finding out, whether I bricked my device doing a pat step, or if it's still possible to recover it, I'd be most glad!
After unlocking the bootloader, it might be, I did a wrong step restarting too soon or something, or trying to boot into a wrong twrp-version. Actually I don't remember each step, as this happened a few months ago...
Thank you for now,
draftflash
if you still can, boot into fastboot and on your pc type
fastboot -w reboot.
if it doesn't work then consider using this firmware updater https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-stock-rom-for-xt2083-reteu.4214883/

ouh, don't think so. I choose it for being said to be a bit lighter. But I am thinking of changing back to LineageOS for /e/ is a bit too close to conventional ROMs, regarding the user surface. But actually I don't know the newer versions of LineageOS.

I dont know if it is available, but for another phone I´ve tried dotOS and was pretty nice, at least on the surface, didn´t dig too deep inside the OS but it seems like a good option, also it has optimization in its DNA
