Boot Logos for Moto X using "Moto Boot Logo Maker" by CaitSith2 Plus 1 DkTheme Anim
Having made several dozen Boot Logos for the two Moto G models that I own using the program "Motorola Boot Logo Maker" developed by CaitSith2 (Thanks to him please if you use his program) I decided to try my luck with my Moto X which I received from Motorola in the last couple of days. Bearing in mind that there is a huge difference in display size (1440 x 2560 - as against 720 x 1280) I was interested to see if this program which easily and automatically produces "logo.bin" files could work with the Moto X.
One advantage of this method is that it automatically gets rid of the "Bootloader Warning" message at the same time as flashing the new logo without any further steps being necessary. If you use CaitSith2's program it is clearly understandable how it works, I used "Custom" and manually adjusted the size to 1440 x 2560. I have to admit that my first attempt at using the program to create a "flashable zip" failed to flash in twrp, however there was no error message and no damage done but then I simply extracted the "bin" file from the zip and used "fastboot" to flash the logo.bin in adb. It maybe that the program can't handle the increased size when it produces the flashable zip but this really doesn't matter because the program gives you the option under "save as" to save just the bin file which as I've said can be flashed in adb.
I attach a .jpg showing the logo I flashed and although using the program is quite straightforward I would be happy to create logos for anyone who wants to post a jpg or png.
EDIT:::::: HAVE ADDED A DARK THEME BOOT ANIMATION IN POST #21
I want to thank you for your post. Because of your post I've been able to build a dark themed version of the logo.img.
I really hate that if you have to power cycle or reboot your phone in the dark you are blindsided by the screen. Not ideal.
Also I was able to replace the Unlock boot logo with the MM flavor of the logo instead of the annoying message on brilliantly white background.
I've attached a thumbnail of the dark version of the MM logo.

How did you replace it? Can you please tell the steps?
If your bootloader is locked, do you still have to overwrite a clogo partition instead?

Good question I have never found anyone wanting to replace a "locked" bootloader logo, probably because the nasty "unlocked" logo doesn't show until you actually unlock the bootloader! I don't know the answer to the question I am going to ask - can you use ADB on a device with a locked bootloader? Following on from that, can you get into "fastboot" mode on your device if your botloader is still locked? Sorry I can't be more helpful.

See the last few lines of my original post #1 - that wil tell you how to create the "logo.bin" file. Having done that use the following command in fastboot........... fastboot flash logo logo.bin ............
Haha, no worries. Fastboot and ADB are still functional on a locked bootloader. For the past two Motos locked devices use the "clogo" partition to display the boot screen and it can be overwritten (yes, locked bootloader!) It's pretty nifty and I'm not particularly fond of the stitched logo. They are in .img format.
@kcipopnevets ... As I say I have no experience of changing boot logos on locked bootloaders. I also have never seen the "stitched" boot logo although I use the "stitched" boot animation which I believe is the default for the OTA MM update. If I was facing what I understand to be your problem then in my ignorance I would probably follow these steps ... (I CANNOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF THIS BRICKS ANYONE'S DEVICE) ... I would find a graphic I would like to have as my logo ... I would then import it into the free program "Paint.net" where I could adjust size, and add color and text etc if wanted ... then use Motor Boot Logo Maker to convert the graphic into a "logo.bin" file ... then use fastboot to replace the current boot logo.
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
If this didn't work I would try
Code:
fastboot flash clogo logo.bin
From your post it would appear you have knowledge of the named partitions of the Moto X and that you believe the logo partition to be named "clogo" if this is a wrong assumption on my part then ignore the second line of code.
ALL USERS PLEASE IGNORE THE SECOND LINE OF CODING - "CLOGO" IS NOT CORRECT, THE CORRECT PARTITION IS "LOGO"

@maverixz ... I presume you are referring to @ddfault's dark colored logo and not my original post logo ... Just to clarify, you call it the "logo.img" but as you probably know to use it as a logo the image has to be either (1) a .jpg or .png graphic which you can then manipulate in a graphics program to make it the correct size and color etc and then (2) use such a graphics image in the Boot Logo Maker program to create a recovery flashable ".zip" file (only use v2.2 of the program) or a "logo.bin" file (use either v2.2 or v2.4) which you can then flash via fastboot.
EDIT::::: Although in point (1) above I only mention .jpg and .png files this is because they are the only practical alternatives, you could in fact also use .bmp files - however these are lossless and inevitably create images that are too big to be used by the Moto Logo Maker program.

@spotmark & @[1] ... Guys just in case @ddfault is not monitoring this thread or he may be busy, I have made a .bin file of his DarkImage and have fastbooted to my own Moto X Pure and it works fine ... bear in mind it is NOT a flashable zip version so you will have to install the file using "fastboot". I will try to upload the .bin file here but it may be that .bin files are not loadable to xda, if that happens then I will rename it by calling it a "zip" file. If that is the case you will have to download it, rename it to a .bin file then "fastboot flash" it. Trust this will work for you.
PS ... bin file wouldn't upload so had to change ext, don't forget it's NOT a flashable zip.

Does this also contain black "battery charging" images? And could this .bin be flashed with Flashify or do i have to use fastboot method?
Thanks.

To be quite honest I have never bothered to make & replace "battery charging" logos, just satisfying myself with the main "unlocked" logo but the Moto Boot Logo Maker program has the option to make those logos so give it a try - because of what I believe to be a problem with the META-INF files in the 2.4 version of the program you will still have to save your result as a .bin file not as a flashable zip. As a word of caution make certain that you put the correct size of image into the program.
As far as I know "Flashify" still needs a flashable zip file to work with so any kind of .bin file that you finish up with will have to be flashed using "fastboot", if I get the time I might experiment with battery charging logos.

If you read post #1 and Post #13 you will see that the Moto Boot Logo Maker isn't capable at this time of making "flashable zips" in the correct size for a Moto X Pure. In particular if you note what I say in #13 you can use the file there and flash it using "fastboot".
Code:
fastboot flash logo logo.bin
I got it now. New to all this so just making sure. Thank you.

My MI A2 crashed on the home screen, so I thought to use the flash mi and put the rom stock in it to get back to the original, I had root and bootloader unlocked.
I used the xiaomi aplacative and installed the original rom, it worked but my fastboot mode disappeared, instead it's just a black screen.
Does anyone know a way for me to recover fastboot? I want to use gcam, for that I need root.
I think I'm in EDL mode which I entered to install the stock rom, but now I do not know how to get back to the fastboot.
Send pics i had the same problem it's black fastboot And mi.com logo
If you are in EDL mode, you could flash stock via MiFlash.

Your fastboot should be working fine eventough it only shows black screen. If you flashed stock in EDL-mode it leaves splash partition out and that's why you have blank black screen in fastboot mode. You just need to flash splash.img in fastboot mode using code:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img
.
I was able to solve the problem
I was able to solve the problem, I used the toolkit for the MI A2 provided by the friend "Daha3ker", I used the version V 1.0.5. This tool literally revived my smartphone and returned it to stock rom, until I was able to upgrade via OTA to the February update.
In the Toolkit menu I used option 3 (UNBRICK / REVERT TO STOCK). I want to express my thanks to Daha3ker for developing this tool and thanks to XDA.
Hi folks, it's been a while since I've had my hand in mods and roms, but I just picked up a g7 and figured what better time to get back into it.
I have yet to root and unlock as I literally just got it, so I'm looking for a brave tester to see if this works, although I'm quite confident it will. Need unlocked bootloader to flash and adb/fastboot setup.
This is a boot logo of the sublime sun, one of my personal favorites. As long as I get confirmation this is working, I will take requests and create as I have the time to do so. One thing I may need to fix is the color of the logo as with older moto devices, I would have to flip the R and B source channels in the mixer to have colors display properly, so take this a your warning, although I will fix ASAP if this is the case.
To flash:
-Download attached logo.zip
-Unzip and move logo.bin to folder with adb/fastboot
-Put phone into fastboot mode
-Flash using command: fastboot flash logo logo.bin
Standard disclaimer: I take no responsibility for zombies eating your brain, white-walkers turning the world to an everlasting winter, or this mod causing your phone not to function. If you do run into an issue, feel free to post, and I will be happy to point you in the right direction for a fix.

Though it hasn't seen any recent updates, Motorola Boot Logo Maker appears to still work on the Moto G7.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-motorola-boot-logo-maker-source-t2848667
I had bought the Amazon version of the device, unlocked the bootloader, and fastboot flashed the RETUS image found in the lolinet repo.
I wanted to replace Motorola's unlocked bootloader warning, which I managed with Motorola Boot Logo Maker:
1) I extracted the logo.bin found in the RETUS image I had flashed.
2) I imported the logo.bin into Motorola Boot Logo Maker
3) I replaced just the 3 images that showed the unlocked bootloader warning (there were 3 for some reason). -- FYI, the image should be relatively small, and properly proportioned because there is an obvious size limitation.
4) Saving it with the changes, it produced a zip file (which returned an error when I tried to flash it through TWRP).
5) After extracting the new logo.bin from the zip file, I was able to successfully flash it via my PC from my fastboot screen [fastboot flash logo logo.bin]
6) The first time I tried to restart the device, it got stuck on the 1st screen (the new image I had replaced Motorola's warning with). However after I shutdown the device completely by holding the power button, and started it back up it booted without any problems.
I haven't actually ever created boot animations, so if you put together something nifty I'd love to try it out.

I bought my g7 through Project Fi. I use the RETAIL zip files. I followed your instructions for replacing the unlocked bootloader warning screen. In the logo.bin file, the image named "orange" was the one displayed when I booted my g7. I extracted the orange image, edited with png editor and then replaced the image in the logo.bin file. It worked great. There is an image named "logo_unlocked", but I don't see that image when I boot my phone.
Thank you for the link to the logo maker software. Very nice tool to have.
No bootlogo, just a black screen and N/A in the bottom left

This comes back as an invalid logo.bin. If you flash it you get a black screen. It also changes graphic in your recovery.

you have flashed the china version (or a version for another devices, sure not camellian). cause global fastboot version is not yet online. only recovery. you can install only via ota or twrp.
