I've got my Optimus T flashed with the void ROM now and I'm loving it. I've been playing around now with the boot animation and I notice that now there is an animated version of the LG logo that comes after the static logo and before the bootanimation.zip. I've got the bootanimation.zip figured out, but I'd prefer to go straight from the static LG logo to the beautifully simple "void."
Does anyone know where this animated logo is located and how it can be changed or removed? Thanks in advance.
Answering my own question.
The images are in /bootimages named opening_0[1-8].rle. These are rle encoded raw RGB files. See to565.c in the android git tree for some details on that RLE format.
Trying now to see if getting rid of those files gets rid of the boot animation...
Looks like these files are written anew every time from the boot.img. I have found how to unpack the boot image from /dev/mtd/mtd0, but I'm working right now on how to make a new one...
the boot images are in ramdisk you need to unpack boot.img modify ramdisk and repack boot.img
the command to unpack on linux is "./unpack-bootimg.pl boot.img" you need perl libraries installed
Yep, I can unpack the boot image and change the images but once I repack it, how can I flash it to the appropriate place?
take commands what you need from an update-script of a custom rom and flash it trough recovery
Any updates on this? I would also like to know an easy way to remove this animation.

This sounds like the easy answer. Anyone with more knowledge willing to do this for me? I guess we're just talking about a zip to flash to remove boot/shutdown animations and nothing else.
Any idea how to root Sony Xperia Go?
You already got yours? Cool.
Well I think it's a bit early, just wish the Xperia community was bigger.
So nice phones but Sony aren't that big in US.

Whether you are on GB or ICS? Have you tried this? It also has a tutorial for rooting ICS. But in either case, you need have your GB ROM.

- Reflash your phone with current firmware using Sony Update Service
- Copy the blobs Update Service caches from the update to local directory
- Use Flashtool to decrypt and recreate the tft from the blobs
- Unzip the ftf and unpack the boot image together with to kernel
- Edit /default.prop and set ro.secure=0
- Repack the root initramfs file system
- Create a new boot image with the root filesystem and the kernel
- Unlock the boot loader
- fastboot the new image (no need to flash it)
- "adb shell" to the phone, you are now the root user
- remount /system read-write
- add busybox, su and whatever you like
Check www.youtube.com/watch?v=bB77gWRUI_A for details about getting your original image.
See http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/ about building the boot image.

But now to next problem... If i run Sony PC Companion I will get anser NO FW found for your device???? (i select repair)
and if i use Sony Update Service i dont get any repar or reinstall it says you already have the last FW........

Ah, strange. Update Service is supposed to reinstall the same version already installed. Maybe Sony not yet updated their servers.
Still I believe you can work around this. The nice thing about Sony Xperia is that when you unlock its bootloader, you can boot your phone over usb using fastboot without having to flash the image. I.e. a single one-time-boot of your image, without any permanent modifications of your phone.
This means you can always try booting another boot image than the original. It don't have to work perfect, just brining the devices up so you can access it via usb and "adb shell". It need to use the same disk devices (mount right partition at right mount point), so try using a image from another Xperia and hope for the best. You can check the mount points using the command "mount" in the shell, compare with the mount points of some other Xperia you can get the ROMs to.
So download a Xperia ROM from XDA, edit ro.secure=0, recompile the boot image again and try fastboot the phone (do not flash it!). If it boots, don't care if everything things isn't working properly, just transfer su and busybox to /system/bin and then halt and restart the phone - this time from the internal flash (= original image), and you got the phone using its original image, but with the su and busybox you need to become root.
Again - do not flash your image, only boot the phone with it. If you flash it, and don't got the original image to restore back, your phone is bricked.
Problem solved.

Hi guys,
I created ftf from blobs and unzip ftf.
I used Nero Young guide to make custom rom (kernel), but when I need to add boot.img to my kitchen folder, I can't find it.
I tried to follow this guide http://developer.sonymobile.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/, but without success. I also try SIN2IMG, mkbootimg... but nothing
Can someone tell me another way to make boot.img, or upload boot.img for ST27i.

Do you mind to elaborate about the steps taken to get and patch boot image?
What I did is I grabbed the "boot_X-FLASH-ALL-8F02.sin" file, used UnSIN tool to convert it to "boot.img" and then Android Image Kitchen AIK to unpack and repack the image (this step is necessary on older Xperia phone, is that the case here?), then finally patch the repacked boot image using Magisk.
But when flashing the new patched boot image, I get a non functional touch screen and wifi. I was able to control the phone using ScrCpy tool to mirror the phones screen on my computer and control the phone from the window that appears on the computer. But since WIFI won't even turn on, I couldn't even verify that Magisk was working or not.
What is worse, is that if I tried to flash the original untouched Boot image SIN or the converted IMG, the phone still has non-working touch-screen and WIFI.
FlashTool by Androxyde and EMMA tools do NOT support this phone yet. I ended up using Newflasher tool to go back to stock (still unlocked bootloader) and everything works fine, but no root.
I have the US model I3223 btw.
Thank you kindly, awaiting your response.

older version can not patch boot.img, because when you click "install the zip",it will let you update the new verison.

I tried to flash I4293_53.0.A.6.96_1318-2077_R1A.ftf (Factory ftf. downloaded from experifirm) with flashtool to solve this problem.
when I tried to create bundle, I found that I4293 did not show in the ID list.
I can't do anything about it.
Anybody can help me plz~~ I'm fresh in XDA and just try to root my phone first time :crying:
This phone cannot be rooted at this time due to the lack of the img.patch and no driever.

Are you still stuck? For all of the latest Sony phones try NewFlasher instead.

Flashtool doesn't support our phones. Magisk 19.1+ currently doesn't work with our phones. Hopefully 19.4 will fix that.

Small update on this, there was an Android update recently, and it fixes everything ??* so if someone else here has the same issues somehow, updating to July update fixes it
I've some questions:
-does Nokia release his kernel source and which version use? on their website there is only for 3.1 I don't know if are same thing.
-Does support treble?
hello, now there is a august update for nokia 3.2 Do u have the boot file for that.. or how can I find it??
I add this phone to the list of my amazon.it account to make some stuff like twrp and roms but didn't buy yet, I'm afraid that Nokia will not release kernel source soon so in case of taking one I can make a twrp with stock kernel extracted from boot.img see ya.
Edit: buying this phone has been cancelled after reading unlocking bootloader seems to be "impossible" shame on you dear Nokia

Unfortunately, I don't have my current build as a separate firmware file, and QFIL is not able to get the boot image from my phone because the communication stops right away.
My build number starts with 00EEA, whereas your boot image (and the full stock ROM on Mega that you linked) contains 00WW. I'm not sure this firmware is compatible with my Nokia 3.2 ...

Thanks for your efforts - I was able to solve the problem today.
It seems there are different versions of the same "programmer" around that is used in QFIL to extract your own boot image from the phone.
Originally, I used the one provided by @hikari_calyx in his unlock thread. Today I noticed that the programmer file in the stock firmware you provide here has a slightly different size. I tried this one and it worked.
So I could extract my "boot.img" from the phone. Rooting was easy after that.
I think it's always safer to use one's own boot image than trying to flash one that was lying around elsewhere.
Here is my post in the other thread for reference. Thanks again for your research and for providing the stock firmware!

Hello JFDee,
is it possible that you upload your original or modified boot image also?
Because i flashed the boot image that was given here and now i have the same problem, like said before.
WLAN is not working anymore and the Boot time is very long. Updating also don't work.
I also saw the differences in the build numbers.
My is like yours 00EEA....
This would be really nice, because i don'T find the stock image for this number.
Best regards!!!!

Yea, im also looking for a way to get some sort of custom recovery on the exact same device. My advice is (if you cant build your own version of twrp) to just wait for some devs to release something for it. The galaxy a11 is a very new device so we'll just have to wait it out.
Edit: So I followed a tutorial here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=40&v=MyxGZbCuxDQ&feature=emb_logo) and i created this (https://filebin.net/u3yww2cyajktm043). IT MAY OR MAY NOT WORK!!! USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!!

You can put the device into download mode and unlock the bootloader from there...
I'm currently stuck on this device trying to get it to unlock the boot loader. I've ticked OEM unlock but when I get into download mode (adb reboot download) I'm not getting any option to unlock the boot loader there. I'm also not able to get into download mode with any key commands. Any ideas here?
I've heard you power off, then hold volume up and down when you plug in a data cable. Haven't tried it yet, I'm on the a115u t-mobile variant. I can get to what it calls download mode, which looks to be fastboot and NOT the standard samsung blue screen download mode. Just boot to recovery and select reboot to bootloader. I do not have oem unlock in my dev settings, but I'll see if I can fastboot oem unlock when I get back to my laptop.
flash sm-a115u1 version firmware first. gives you oem unlock option. obviously toggle on and adb debugging. power off the phone. hold both volume buttons and insert usb cable. it will look like the normal blue download warning screen but read it carefully. it says long press volume up to unlock bootloader. it works. it will go black. release volume up and next it will ask you to confirm. choose yes. it will reboot and erase. after skipping thru set up enable dev options again and you will see oem toggle greyed out with a caption "bootloader already unlocked". thats as far as ive gotten. because now im like "what now?" i need a custom recovery file to flash to the device. any help with that out there? so now that the bootloader is unlocked can i install magisk to root and if so after that how can i network unlock? any help would be greatly appreciated. also looking for any custom roms that are available for this a11(2020). seems like a decent phone.thanks.
Situation:
You can build your TWRP it's very easy. Or get compiled version from A10 and patch your system.
As result you'll get a bootloop.
Why?
Samsung had f****d you up and give you a SECURE BOOT that's not possible to remove by bootloader unlock. If you're install wrong signed recovery loader will said to you:
1st something is going wrong and signatures are mismatched, lete wipe your phone!
Ok. You jad solved that and not wiped your phone.
2nd hmm, signatures still mismatched I'll not boot and go in ***!
Result:
Untill someone will not break this Qualcomm Secure Boot you'll not able to install custom OS or TWRP or any other good stuff.
Is there any updates that can be flashed with stock recovery

What's a point? Unpack firmware's AP_ file, extract boot.img, patch it through magisk, and flash through odin. But where in that thread header did you found the install root?
I want to remind you that recovery is bot a root part. That's why root thread and TWRP threads are separated.

Ahh I see. Sorry then.
You shall do that way. Find current fiware for your device, download it through fine software.
A result you will get 5 files with .zip extension.
You need to unpack file with AP_ prefix, i suggest you to use 7zip for that stuff. From file you need took off the boot.img.
Then boot.img you shall pack into archive.tar,
When you've done, down load the Magisk apk from github and install on your phone. Move your jew archive to phone memory/diwnload folder and start the Magisk, make patching of kenel, as result you'll receive the magisk_patched.tar, copy that file to your pc and start the Odin, place that archive in AP slot and flash it.
PROFIT!
But I want to warn you in android 10 and up there root and kernel system are different, now system is booting from super.img, and partition /,/system and etc are RO, so through the root you'll not able to change anything in system it would be wiped on next system restart.
