[GUIDE] How to Create Custom Splash Screen (Boot Logo) for Zuk Z2/Z2 Pro

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..

That must be from the faulty Indian batch Mi Max-es...
Sorry guys from India... couldn't resist...

Here is what I came up with...
Copy attached splash.img to internal storage(/sdcard) and run in terminal emulator/adb shell:
Code:
su
dd if=/sdcard/splash.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash
Enjoy!

Is the format of the image changing on every device ? My old Xperia SP (snapdragon) supports .rle format.
is Mi max not support ?

Perhaps a dumb question but can one replace the splash image without having the bootloader unlocked and still have the phone working properly (would guess so seeing how you can actually run a custom recovery and kernel without any problem)?
EDIT: Answered my own question cause no brick is impossible to fix, yes it works.

Can i use this for helium devices?

Locked bootloader Lenovo Vibe K5 Note K52e78 (chinese version)

Hi,
I've some problems with my Lenovo K5 note, I successfully rooted it with SuperSu and I can connect to it with Mtk Droid Tools (green rectangle at the bottom).
I've also a valid scatter file, and a stock rom backup that I can flash with sp flash tool.
The problem is that I can't flash a modded recovery image with sp flash tool, and can't write to recovery partition in fastboot mode.
So, I think the bootloader is locked, i can type "fastboot oem unlock" in fastboot mode, but when the phone display "Press volume up for Yes/Volume Down for No), volume up don't work, only volume down do...
Is that impossible to unlock the bootloader on this phone now ?
Thanks and sorry for my bad english

How to root?

How to root?
Click to expand...

You can root this phone if you run on Lollipop (5.1) but you can't if you have Marshmallow (6.0).
You need to use Kingroot and next you can replace it with superSu (http://forum.xda-developers.com/a310/general/how-to-remove-replace-kingroot-kinguser-t3308989)

It seems to be possible to write to recovery partition with a tool like Rashr or Flashify : when I flash a recovery.img (non compatible image because there is no custom recovery for this phone), I reboot to recovery and the screen turn black 5 seconds, and the phone restart to normal android system. I can reflash stock recovery, and the chinese recovery is back again.
Is there hope ?

Someone have the Stock Rom for chinese version ?

Anyone know how to unlock bootloader to flash twrp recovery image to Lenovo K5 Note?

After hours of research on the Lenovo K5 note (K52e78), mine is chinese version
I believe this phone you cannot unlock the bootloader.
I get stuck on the 'press up button' to unlock to which there is no response from the phone. I will now give up.
If anyone finds a way please let me know, as generally it is a good phone with great battery, and if I can install a custom ROM it could be a fun phone to use.

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.
