[Q] Can I change the LG logo on the splash screen? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It's more of a customization "want" than anything
I'd like to put a custom image in place of the factory LG logo that appears before the boot animation begins...can anyone tell me how to do this?
I'm wanting to do this on my vs980... anyone have suggestions on where I might be able to gather some knowledge about this???
Anything is and will be appreciated!!!
THANKS IN ADVANCE:good:

The LG image is located in your Boot Image, specifically the Ramdisk iirc. It can't be replaced unless you create your own Custom Kernel.
In short, don't bother changing it.. for what it's worth.

Got ya...if I decide to compile a kernel though, it's be rather simple to change though, right?
I know that there are a few threads on building kernels...might be a fun project...
Thanks again for the input:good:

[Q] Changing boot image (Android one)

Hi. I have tried several ways, but none works. How can I change Android splash screen? WinMo default splash is already changed, now I want to change that one which is included in rom/kernel (android). I can't unpack kernel, so how can I do that?
wait..you want to change the image that comes before magldr or clk...or you want to change the roms splash screen that comes after?

Why is everyone giving the OP links to boot animations? He wants to change the splash screen, the black screen that says 'Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505'
I don't think it's possible to change
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium HD app
It requires some bootloader modifications and I don't think anyone is ready to risk messing with that

Why would you need to change the boot animation for your S 4? dont make any sense, just enjoy the phone mate,such things are risky to play with .

Because you like it? Because you want something else? Just because you can?
On the SGS2 I used this tool with great success. I know, the look would suggest otherwise
If something like this comes up for the SGS4 I will most certainly use it as well :good:

Those instructions are for other devices (Cherry Mobile Flame 2.0/Karbonn S1 Titanium/K-Touch Lotus II/Kiss U86 and Cherry Mobile Flare/Karbonn A9+). S4 doesn't have fastboot, so you can't use AIO Flasher.
As I see, there is still no tool / instruction to change boot logo on S4.
For the love of g-d!!! Samsung gs4!!!
Can someone PLEASE develop a tool for this?
MANY people out there have a GS4 and want this done!
Sorry that I'm not a dev, but I'm willing to develop if someone could start me off where to look .
In view of all possible customizing currently available for the Samsung Galaxy S4:​
1: Boot Splash Image: Not yet developed
2: Boot Animation: Already successful
3: Removal of Yellow Triangle/Flash Counter: Already successful
4: Custom Recovery: Already successful
5: Custom ROM: Already successful
6: XDA Xposed Framework App on JB, KK, LP, MM: Already successful
7: Bcmon: DON'T GET ME STARTED!!!
Can a dev out there PLZ have mercy on us all??!!
Maybe by getting a custom_param_lfs.tar for the Galaxy S4?

[Q] problem with bootanimations not working on gs5

Hi guys after rooting my ( gs5 sm-g900i ) I've been trying to install custom boot logos but ain't had much luck so far and this was using the bootanimation4u method ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2063280 ) I've installed and flashed everything from the links provided and tried following instructions to a t am I possibly doing something wrong or is there a new method of doing this?
P.s I also apologize if there already is another thread that solves this but in my noob searching I wasn't able to find anything so mods please feel free to move this if need be.
As far as I know we are unable to change boot animations on the s5 because the method in that article creates them as a zip file but the new Samsung devices require a .qmg format for boot animations.

Any plans for ROMs for the J5 2016 (SM-J510)?

Hello everyone,
I'm currently using a Galaxy J5 (2016) and I was wondering if anyone wants to do any modding for it. The only things I've seen so far is the "Light ROM" and the TWRP recovery, but I would love to use another custom ROM or a kernel.
Same, I would live to see a Cyanogenmod ROM for the J510. I've been trying to make a ROM, but it would help if others would do so.
It looks like the guys are working hard on a rom for your model on the developer page. You will just have to wait for more. Until then why don't you download the one available and help test it. The process will help develop more roms
@johnhux7 Can you send me the link to this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/rom-light-stock-rom-v1-t3467865
I think that this is the link your wanting
I meant a ROM for CM and that one has the final update
I don't think that there is one at yet mate. I think the only way your gonna get that is if you download the ROM that the guy has made. Help him test it, give him feedback and maybe that will help motivate him to go on and build CM12..1 CM 13 etc.
These guys do this work for nothing and it must take them 100's of hours and god knows how many boots of their phones.
Give them a hand and maybe you will get what you want in the future cos there ain't one at present..

It is safe since it was confirmed that it is working.
You have to replace init.qcom.post_boot.sh file with the one from that thread, like is mentioned here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70308367&postcount=5 . So, copy the actual init.qcom.post_boot.sh somewhere to have a backup before replacing it. Dont forget to set the permission after replacing it.
Someone made a flashable zip with it so you can flash it through TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=70409603&postcount=14 .
I don't know why it's any custom kernels for it!
It's a really great device!
A lot of RAM, good battery, CPU and GPU which is good for OVERLOCKING(I see the wonderful custom kernels on different devices with this chip

Yeah it's that only. It replaces the splash images from the splash partition and is independent of the ROMs and doesn't get replaced on changing ROMs.
