What IS this post about?
Firmware restore of 4.4.4 using RSD Lite, but for unlocked boots, the recovery flashed is custom & the logo used is the normal M-multi color rather than the warning version. Comes in Philz & Twrp flavors. Upon rebooting, Philz or TWRP will root for you.
User data is retained, not erased.
Note: After this restore you may notice problems because you kept data-just wipe data from recovery & reboot. Keeping data like this is non standard.
The logo used is from here.
First 2 attachments are about 10 MBs. There are 3 modded files to extract: MOD...xml (RSD instructions), recovery & logo to paste into your unzipped/extracted FXZ/XML folder. You may want to rename the stock recovery & logo so they will not be overwritten. Here is the usual fxz Source, which you may have already.
Do not paste the source xml folder contents into mine.
The 2 last attachments are modded full FXZs, 900 MB.
Choose the mod xml from RSD Lite 615. Moto drivers are here. There is no getvar or erase userdata as the X firmware has-which is strange for the stock XML. So use of the modded or source FXZ will leave user data alone.
Settings/Developer Options: Enable USB debugging to use RSD.
If you want a fresh restore just wipe data from stock or custom recovery before you use get into the bootloader/apfastboot screen
Note: step 2 is ap/fastboot (RSD mode) & step 6 (recovery) is where to wipe data.
Faster Mega server full versions can be downloaded for regular use on locked xt-1080s as each modded Full fxz can be easily put back to normal. Recovery.img.orig 10.5 MB & logo.bin.orig 2.6 MB just need renaming, as well as the modded ones renamed: recovery.img.mod Philz: 10.4 MB, TWRP: 8.6 MB & logo.bin.mod 2.6 MB. Then run the original xml (included)(not the one labeled MOD). Again there is no data wipe in this original firmware.
A better backup
Full 444 xml with Philz recovery is up.
It is easily converted back to the normal fxz for locked boot users.
But why? Mega is much faster than the sbf/xml storehouse site.
So if your un Rooted this is useful how?

Just a faster download of the fxz, is all. Then you must convert the xml folder to normal.
Thanx
Big thanx for this solution. Now I have fully rooted and System RW on Verizon Moto Droid Ultra. I was on OTA updated to 4.4.4, and Root was broken. And now all - OK

No way but a boot unlock. 444 has no exploit for rooting.
This helps unlocked phones only.

Before this thread, I have 4.4.4 with broken root after OTA update (without system RW and SuperSU crash)
My way:
-Install RSD and drivers
- do solutions from head from head
- download file from 1 attach
- replace files
- flash it and see on phone error about size of recovery
- reboot
- wipe data and cache
- reboot
- see SuperSU in Menu
- check wp and su with terminal and adb - all OK
- run Root-Explorer, all permissions apply
- can edit and write files in system folders =)

I have Verizon XT1080 with Locked BL, on 4.4.2 was root and WP off, after WiFi updating to 4.4.4 all was broken, and after that I wrote upper I'm now with root and system read/write permission, but safestrap see that WP ON and crashes after tapping somewhere. After updating SuperSU root will be lost.
For system R/W you may go to Terminal and run:
- su
- mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system /system
and than with mount command check if /system have rw. After reboot you may to remount
P.S. Sorry for my english, I'm from Ukraine =)
Very bad that Moto with cutted language pack =(

Here is an alternate method to flash 444 "pre-recovery'ed" and thereby pre-rooted. Comes in Philz & Twrp flavors.
3 modded files: ...xml (RSD instructions), recovery & logo to paste into your unzipped FXZ/XML folder. Source.
Flash from RSD Lite 615. Moto drivers. There is no getvar or erase userdata as the X firmware has-which is strange for the stock XML. Added custom recovery & stock (boot) logo.
Settings/Developer Options: Enable USB debugging to use RSD.
If you want a fresh restore just wipe data from stock or custom recovery before you use get into the bootloader/apfastboot screen
Note: step 2 is ap/fastboot (RSD mode) & step 6 (recovery) is where to wipe data.
Paste the 3 files to your xml folder. You may want to rename the stock recovery & logo so they will not be overwritten.
Faster Mega server (but slow uploads, 1 a day. 2 Ultra & 2 X) full versions soon. 10 MB vs 900 MB.
Note for locked users: each modded Full fxz can be easily put back to normal. Recovery.img.orig & logo.bin.orig just need renaming. Then run the original xml (included). Again there is no data wipe in this original firmware.

So you flashed the mini version without system, motoboot, boot, gpt & etc.
It is still confusing so for everyone's benefit maybe, in time, your sweet time, you could be more clear about the exact steps.
Thank you.

Just to be clear, I intended the attachments to overwrite the source. You overwrote the attachment with the source!! (If I read you right)
The Q is did you achieve something good by your mistake?
Creating custom splash.img for Wileyfox Storm:
Note:
This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Wileyfox' logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)
This is for Wileyfox Storm only..
For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.
Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..
STEPS:
1. Make sure you have a picture for your custom splash with:
i. Resolution: 1080x1920 px
ii. PNG or JPG format
iii. picture size less than 200kB
iv. less colorful
(Tip: Try compressPNG.com to reduce no. of colors in PNG picture.
Upload your picture, click Settings, reduce number of colors to 16 or below & download it)
2. Download this tool to your computer: CM_Splash_Maker.zip
And extract it.
3. Drag & drop your splash picture on the file "CREATE_Logo.bat" & select your device.
4. After the custom splash image (filename.img) is created, the output directory will be opened..
5. Transfer the filename.img to the device's internal storage & flash it using Terminal Emulator like:
Code:
dd if=/sdcard/filename.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
(Or you can flash it from fastboot as given below)
Note:
Incase you flashed & your device doesn't bootup, don't worry
Just flash the original splash.img from fastboot like:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img
Credits:
1. Based on my original tool for Yu devices here..
2. @GokulNC (myself ) who created this tool..
Hit the Thanks :good: button if it worked for you
Don't forget to post here the custom splash screens that you made, since others may find it useful
Note:
This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'LeEco' boot logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)
This is for LeEco Le Max2/Max1/Max Pro Only ..
For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.
Requirements:
1. Rooted LeEco Le Max 2 / Max1 (X900) / Max Pro (X910) [any ROM]
2. Optional: Terminal Emulator app or Custom Recovery or atleast working fastboot in computer.
3. You're proceeding at your own risk.
STEPS to create splash.img:
Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..
It's not yet tested by anyone.
1. Download & Extract this: Le_Max_Splash_Logo_Maker.zip
2. Make sure you have 3 pictures (same or different) in 1440x2560 resolution in PNG format.
(It seems Le Max displays any 1 picture from the 3 pictures randomly while switching ON, so I think you'll have to use 3 pictures)
3. Now rename your 3 pictures as logo1.png, logo2.png, logo3.png & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.
(Similarly you can replace other pictures in it carefully if you wish)
4. Finally, run the 'CREATE_LOGO.bat' to create splash.img , which you can find inside the "output" folder after completion.
STEPS to flash splash.img:
Choose any one easy method:
a. To flash from recovery:
Transfer the flashable_splash.zip to your device and flash from TWRP or CWM or Philz or any other custom recovery.
b. To flash from Terminal Emulator:
Transfer the splash.img to your device's Internal Storage, Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
c. To flash from Fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img
Note:
Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from custom recovery or fastboot.

There's no automated tool for that, I did that manually..
It's a bit technical, so I'm not sure if I can make it understand to others who don't have an experience with this..
Anyway, here's what I did:
1. Your device's resolution is 1440x2560, and I saw using Hex Editor that the splash image is raw bgr24 format...
Which means there's 3 bytes per each pixel, so total no. of bytes for a picture=1440*2560*3, which is 11059200 (A8C000 in hex)
2. The first 512bytes is the header of a splash picture (it starts like "SPLASH!!" followed by resolution in little endian format; don't worry about those details). It doesn't contain any pixels data, so remove (or skip) that first 512Bytes and take the next 11059200 (A8C000 in hex) bytes and store it in a new file, say temp.img
3. Now you have to convert the temp.img to a picture file (preferably PNG), so I use the ffmpeg tool for that.
Code:
ffmpeg.exe -f rawvideo -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt bgr24 -s 1440x2560 -i temp.img -vframes 1 -y temp.png
4. Now you have first picture with you (temp.png)..
Similarly, after exactly 12MB (12582912bytes or C00000 in hex) of the picture in the splash.img, there's the header of picture of second pic, which is followed by its raw pixels data (as I've said from point 1), and similarly you can extract the picture2..
It seems there are 6 pictures, so you'll be doing this 6 times..
It may seem like it's a tedious process, but once you're good with using the Hex Editor with it, it'll just take a few minutes.. (You'll know the tricks of how to do this easily and fast with experience)
I have not explained everything in detail, as I don't have time now
And, I don't intend to make any automated tool for extracting it, since splash.img varies for devices, and I'll be wasting time for something that'll be useful to a single device only (or probably no one will use it, since who cares about extracting it really while there's a tool to create a new one?)
And also, by default, I have included the stock pics only in the /pics/ folder (So if you want to edit the stock pics, you may take a backup of those somewhere and do it)
BTW, you may post the splash.img that you created here, since others may find it useful..
(Just zip it to reduce the 72MB splash.img size to just 200kB or something before posting )
thank you for that explanation, i will look into it.

This is for Alcatel OneTouch Idol 3 Only..
For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.
Requirements:
1. Rooted OneTouch Idol 3 (any ROM)
2. Terminal Emulator app
STEPS to create splash.img:
Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..
1. For Idol 3 4.7 inch variant, make sure you have a picture in PNG format with resolution exactly 720x1280px.
For Idol 3 5.5 inch variant, make sure you have a picture in PNG format with resolution 1080x1920px or lower.
Note:
For 5.5 inch variants, OneTouch Idol 3 has a fixed frame buffer size of 1MB for splash image, so only very light-weight pictures should be used.
It's recommended to use picture with 3 or 2 colors only, like Black & White pictures.
So you'll have to try many pictures till you get a successful one.
Here's an example.
2. Download & Extract this:
For 4.7 inch variants: Idol_3_4.7inch_Splash_Maker.zip (thanks to @persona78 who created this for 4.7inch idol 3)
For 5.5 inch variants: Idol_3_5.5inch_Splash_Maker.zip
3. Now rename your picture as logo.png & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.
4. Finally, run the 'CREATE_LOGO.bat' to create splash.img , which you can find inside the "output" folder after completion.
Note:
For 5.5inch variants, you might get an error like "PICTURE IS LARGE IN SIZE" if it's not possible to create a logo with that picture.
In that case, try any one of these below:
a. Try compressPNG.com to reduce no. of colors in PNG picture.
Upload your picture, click Settings, reduce number of colors to 2, Apply & download it & try again.
b. Reduce the picture resolution.
For example, this picture can edited to something like this.
(Hope you understand what I say)
c. Try some other picture.
STEPS to flash splash.img:
0. Optional: Backup your original stock splash.img by the command:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash of=/sdcard/splash_backup.img
(And transfer to computer, might be needed in future)
1. Transfer the splash.img that you created to your device's Internal Storage.
2. Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
(You can also flash from fastboot as given below)
Note:
Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from fastboot like:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img
Or flash the attached stock splash zip file from custom recovery.

0. First, backup your original stock splash.img by the command:
Code:
su
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash of=/sdcard/splash_backup.img
(And transfer to computer, might be needed in future)
1. Transfer the splash.img that you created to your device's Internal Storage.
2. Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
(You can also flash from fastboot as given below)
Note:
Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from fastboot like:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img

Thanks for your effort
There's something missing in your modification..
It only generates the boot logo..
The splash.img also contains the download mode image..
So if you flash the splash.img created by your tool, when you boot into download mode, you won't see any image..
Anyway, I corrected that mistake and uploaded the tool in OP
Thanks again!

By download mode, I mean the mode mentioned here: [TOOL] Sahara & Firehose Test
I don't know what image is displayed while booting into recovery (the same bootlogo might be displayed I guess)

New Splash for 5.5
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B092lttgpAYbUHpvSjVTdnRZLVU
Thank, my splash 4.7
Doesn't work for me on Idol 3 5.5 (Android 5.0.2).
Moreover I have to write "fastboot -i 0x1bbb" instead of "fastboot" to use the commands.
The flashing works, but the new splash screen doesn't look right. Even your splash screens doesn't work for me.
Is there a solution for that?
Thanks GokulNC,
your guide have bring back my broken splash screen. :good::good:
I have flash on my 6039y MM6.0.1 r2 from decker, but this have destroy fastboot. So i must restore fastboot commands with Lollipop guide from user petrov.0. After i have do this my splash screen was broken. (only two Stripes with Pixels)
So i have with fastboot flash your stock splash screen and all is now o.k. again. Thanks.
here the correct fastboot command for Idol3 4,7" (6039Y):
Code:
fastboot -i 0x1bbb flash splash splash.img
fastboot -i 0x1bbb reboot

Many thanks in advance
logo of idol 3 in png format
guys someone pass me the png logo for alcatel idol 3 i want to make a bootlogo for various custom roms but i can't find the png for the logo of the cell phone brand and model
Note:
This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Lenovo' boot logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)
This is for Tab 4 8/10 (Plus) (TB-8704X/F, TB-X704L/F, TB-8504X/F, TB-X304L/F).
For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.
Requirements:
1. Rooted Tab 4 8/10 (Plus) (TB-8704X/F, TB-X704L/F, TB-8504X/F, TB-X304L/F) (any ROM)
2. Optional: Terminal Emulator app or Custom Recovery or atleast working fastboot in computer
3. You're proceeding at your own risk.
STEPS to create splash.img:
Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..
1. Download & Extract this: Splash_Logo_Maker_Lenovo_Tab4.zip
2. Make sure you have a picture with resolution equal to your device resolution (for example, 800x1200 px) or lesser. For Lenovo Tab 4 10 *Plus*, the resolution of image to use is 1200x1920 pixels.
Note:
In fact, you don't need 800x1200 picture, you can even have a picture with any resolution lower than device resolution, which will automatically be centered while booting.
3. Now rename your picture as logo.png or logo.jpg (according to the format) & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.
(Or you can also directly edit the picture inside)
4. Finally, run the 'CREATE_LOGO.bat' to create splash.img , which you can find inside the "output" folder after completion.
STEPS to flash splash.img:
Optional: To backup your original splash.img:
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash of=/sdcard/splash.img
(Not necessary though.. You may get it from the stock firmware itself.)
Now, Choose any one easy method to install:
a. To flash from recovery:
Transfer the flashable_splash.zip to your device and flash from TWRP or CWM or Philz or any other custom recovery.
b. To flash from Terminal Emulator:
Transfer the splash.img to your device's Internal Storage, Open Terminal Emulator & enter the following to flash it:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
c. To flash from Fastboot mode:
Code:
fastboot flash splash splash.img
Note:
Incase something goes wrong or device doesn't bootup, flash the stock splash.img from custom recovery or fastboot.

Gould you create a Linux Version?
Trying this on my x704v (which I finally got rooted, twrp and custrom rom on... FINALLY), but I'm just getting the linux penguin, which I would assume means there's something wrong with my splash.img. Any advice?
Thanks for the wonderful article, the device which I am doing this is also in your list, but somehow its not working for me, am I missing anything ?
Code:
[email protected] Root % fastboot flash splash splash.img
Sending 'splash' (44 KB) OKAY [ 0.009s]
Writing 'splash' FAILED (remote: 'This partition doesn't exist')
fastboot: error: Command failed
