Does someone know how to change the boot logo/splash screen on Zenfone 3 Z017D?
Thanks
Sorry for my bad English
Are you talking about the splash screen or the boot animation? The boot animation is the file "bootanimation.zip" located in /system/media.
The splash partition for the ze552kl is mmcblk0p48, but using fastboot you can flash it with just the "splash" designation, "fastboot flash splash splash.img".
I would be very careful with what you flash, I soft-bricked my phone using an incorrect file, lol.

Thanks, I'll give it a try
BTW, for ZE520KL, where is the splash screen located?
Chances are it'll be flashable with the same command "fastboot flash splash image.bin".
If you want to double check, install parted and run "parted /dev/block/mmcblk0", then type "p" and enter. Verify your partition is named "splash".
Once you run that command, you can figure out exactly which partition it is (eg. mmcblk0p48) and then can back it up with "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p48 of=/sdcard/splash-backup.bin" to flash in the event of a soft brick via the fastboot flash command.
Might as well post the entire output of the parted command for other people to reference.

Hi guys! I downloaded the "A500BootLogo_105_v8plus_win" tool that changes the boot logo of the bootloader, opened the "bootloader_v8_blue.bin" and changed the splash screen and some colors, saved it and flashed through the fastboot, but when I restart my A500, nothing happens. Any guess?
If you want to update bootloader using fastboot you need to modify and use the blob file instead of bin.
Bin file can be successfully flashed only by downloading it to tablet with nvflash in APX mode.
I tried to update as *.blob but still nothing happend.
Do I have to put a specific name to flash? (I named it custombootloader.blob)
I'm using the command "fastboot flash recovery custombootloader.blob"
Is that right?
Why are you flashing recovery partition with bootloader? The update command is: fastboot flash bootloader custombootloader.blob . The tablet will automatically reboot after the flashing finishes.

You can't just "re-name" a file to xxxxxxxxxx.blob. Won't work (at least I wouldn't do it that way). You have to save the file as a true "blob". Surprised you didn't fubar the tab
In the bootloader app., ckick the dropdown at the bottom, and you can save it as a "blob" file instead of "bin"

Thanks very much Skrilax_CZ, it worked!
That was the problem.
@Moscow Desire
That's what I did... saved it as *.blob.
The rename which I was referring was to the name of the file.

recently i entered the android world and already want to make some changes...
i want to change boot image... not boot animation... boot image! the image that apears right after LG logo... on my case it says "SWIFTDROID SECOND LIFE" or something like that... and i want to change it to a custom image that i pick... how can i do it?
thanks
flash new boot.img
I think the only way is flash new boot .img (which is in rom).
Do this: copy that boot.img which you want in your computer C: drive.
2.put your phone into fastboot and put it your computer,you need
also fastboot.exe in your C drive
3. Run cmd and type: cd :C/fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
Reboot.
You can change it by editing the boot.img.
You change initlogo in boot.img

I have done that. But the initlogo is on .rle file extension and i cant open it. Ive replaced that image for a .png image and repacked boot.img and then reflashed. Phone got stuck on lg logo.
and in some roms there's not an initlogo... :S what file should i replace? and how? i've used this tut http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1630130
and i've managed to do everything right but now i dont know what file to replace... :S
What i did wrong?

Your png file must be converted to rle

Note:
This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Zuk' boot logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)
This is for ZUK Z2 / Z2 Pro Only ..
For other devices, please send me your splash.img so that I can create a tool for you too.
Requirements:
1. Rooted Zuk Z2/Pro (any ROM)
2. Terminal Emulator app installed.
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. Make sure you have a 1080x1920 picture in PNG format.
2. Download & Extract this: Zuk_Z2_Splash_Logo_Maker.zip
3. Now rename your picture as logo.png & replace it inside "pics" folder of the extracted folder.
(Similarly you can replace battery.png and usb.png 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:
1. Transfer the splash.img 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 @GokulNC for this tutorial
some roms also have a special image for the "starting apps" screen. can this be changed too?
@GokulNC, thank you for your tool.
I want to change Warning message for unlocked bootloader with custom picture. I remember there was some way for Motorola phones: https://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/themes-apps/remove-unlocke-bootloader-message-t3177801
Is it possible to use this way for Zuk Z2?
I'd like to find solution but I don't know how to unpack splash.img.
By the way to flash splash we must use the following command:
Code:
fastboot -i 0x2b4c flash splash splash.img

Nope, that's ROM specific.
Check the ROM's source to find where it is. IDK

In their case, it was present in the logo partition itself.
But in your case, it guess it's in the bootloader (it was not present in splash partition).

I've noticed that when I powere on phone It shows quickly splash, then warning about unlocked bootloader, after this splash again and at last bootanimation.
So where should I dig?

As i said, it's in the bootloader partition (maybe named 'aboot' or something; find it out yourself).
However, it's not recommended to modify the bootloader, since it might brick your device, even if it displaces by a single byte..

While offline charging, no picture (or logo) has been visible in a splash made by this program. @GokuINC kindly look into this matter. Thanks.

Unable to flash it through twrp
i tried to flash it but my logo comes only for a second and then it gets replaced by the stock logo (note i have a custom ROM and have different boot video ) fastboot logo is fine it works
I tried too and had the same result, only fastboot works.
I also tried to flash a custom logo, but I didn't use the .bat file because I'm using a linux OS. I searched to find a linux version of the script but I found only a request in another device' s thread with no answer from the creator of the tool. So I tried to use the commands from .bat file. I used "cat" command to join the files which I found that is equivalent to "copy /b" and the "720x1280_header.img" which provided, but it didn't work. I get only af small penguin icon for both fastboot and splash which I suppose is the linux kernel' s default splash. For fastboot I used the "fastboot.img" which also provided, so doesn't seems that is the image I made problem.
Doesn't Work! Atleast must update the thread.

If boot logo gets instantly replaced by the stock one, use this modified version by PG:

Hello,
I need a help to fix a issue with splash image, when I flash stock rom (nougat) then the system loads fine with splash image with unlocked o non unlocked bootloader. But the problem is when I flash another custom rom or another stock rom like oreo or pie. Any system loads fine but the splash image dissapear or not show, so I see a black screen until boot animation appears on screen.
I don't know what happen with that.
On twrp 3.2 with terminal I put his dd if=/sdcard/persist.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p19 and then I reboot system, so it apears this is the location to the splash img, I think.
I've searched on all google website and can't find any solution and here.
¿It's possible that the location of the splash is not the correct block location? or maybe the problem is diferent ...

Thanks for reply Reft309, so I tried to do both scenarios in twrp with zip file and from fastboot with img file but not success
There's something wrong with this.
u should reflash rom
why you dd persist img I didn't understand
persist is not the splash logo you can find splash.img in stock firmware just flash it with Fastboot or make a flashable zip
or if you want dd cmd and not sure about block partition then write it like "dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash"
