Can anyone give step-by-step instructions on how to change the Splash Screen? I'm tired of looking at that Motorola image...Thanks in advance! I saw the thread for the Evo, but wasn't sure that would work here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=814437
Just an update: I tried using the method described in the aforementioned thread - Didn't work...didn't think it would either, Photon froze during install, pulled battery, and it booted as normal (update didn't work and Motorola red dot was still there)
Does ANYONE have a custom splash for the Photon yet?

Boot Logo for Photon
The above link is for the Atrix, but is exactly like the Photon. I have used this link step by step and have successfully flashed several "splash" images, bettery known in the motorola world as Boot Logos.
Hope this helps!

splash screen =/= to boot logo.
edit: it is the screen when you first power your device on where it says dual core.
in the evo dats fastboot was needed to flash the file.

CUSTOM SPLASH SCREENS FOR THE EVO SHIFT
***must have S-OFF and FULLY rooted****
LEAVE IMAGES IN THREAD MUST BE 480x800
Feel free to edit in Gimp, Photoshop, pixlr, etc...
dont know what a splash screen is? here or the annoying white htc screen as you boot up

Instructions
1. Leave file in the root of sd card, rename PG06IMG_xxxx.zip as PG06IMG.zip
2. boot into your bootloader and it will read the file (PG06IMG.zip) as a update
3. volume up, or yes
4. done, reboot and enjoy your splashscreen
when I say 'by _______' I mean the editing, most of these images do not belong to me so I will not take credit for the original, just the edited splash.

Here is a link to a thread from January-February time frame...has some info for creating the .img file used in the PG06IMG.zip out of a .bmp file.
We used to do this in adb, but this method appears to be slicker and has the advantage of being able to change between any number of splash screens on a whim...without needing a computer.

Just went to flash mine and I had to change then name in the file from vampire to splash1 first but once I got to the splash screen it didn't come out right. I don't know what happened, but all I did was open the zip in astro and changed the name so bootloader could read it correctly.

i kinda rushed making it and didn't test but tomorrow it will be all good
ok this one should be fine.. http://www.multiupload.com/U4PCFHYJ5K
i havn't tested it but it should work fine now... if the image is destorted then it wasn't 480x800, if it is a bootloader error then its my fault
thanks for the patience
I knew this thread looked really familiar.. Here's a thread that was started about 4 or 5 months ago Throw your Splash Screens here!. There's several nice splash screens throughout the thread, also the stock splash is in the op.
I have a strange feeling PhotoShop didn't save it as that resolution but I'll find out in a few when I go to flash.
TIRED OF THE PLAIN MOTOROLA BOOT IMAGE WHEN YOUR PHOTON FIRST POWERS ON? TIRED OF STARING AT THE RED M LOGO WHEN IN FASTBOOT MODE?
WAIT NO MORE!!
I AM STARTING A THREAD FOR BOOT LOGOS FOR THE PHOTON. I WILL BE POSTING LOGOs AS I MAKE THEM. IF YOU HAVE AN IMAGE YOU WOULD LIKE AS A LOGO, PLEASE PM ME OR POST ON HERE AND I WILL CONVERT IT FOR YOU!
I WILL BE KEEPING UP WITH THIS THREAD AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. I WILL UPDATE REQUESTS AS I GET THEM...OR AT LEAST ONCE A DAY. IF YOU WANT AN IMAGE AND YOU POST IT IN THE THREAD, PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL OF OTHERS. IF ITS AN IMAGE THAT YOU DO NOT WANT REPOSTED FOR OTHERS TO USE, PLEASE PM ME!
LETS DO THIS!
HOW TO
HERE IS THE LINK TO WHERE I GOT ALL MY INFO AND FILES NEEDED TO DO ALL OF THIS. ITS BEEN ALOT OF FUN AND ALOT OF TRIAL AND ERROR!!
BOOT LOGOs FOR THE MOTO ATRIX (exact same process for the Photon)
A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER / BE AWARE OF:
THIS IS NOT A BOOT ANIMATION - JUST THE IMAGE PRIOR TO THE ANIMATION STARTING.
IF YOU ATTEMPT YOUR OWN AND ITS NOT RIGHT, IT WILL JUST BOOT INTO BINARY TEXT. DONT FREAK OUT!!!
THESE WILL BE FOR COMMAND PROMPT ONLY. ATTACHED IS THE ZIP WITHOUT THE LOGO.BIN FILE. SIMPLY PLACE THE LOGO.BIN IN THE ROOT OF THIS ZIP FILE AND PLACE ON YOUR SDCARD AND BOOT INTO RECOVERY AND USE CWM TO INSTALL! **THANK TO damageplan1223 FOR THE ZIP** (I have not tested this zip to see if it works. I always use cmd)
I WILL GIVE AS CLOSE TO STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS AS POSSIBLE ON HOW TO INSTALL THE IMAGE ONCE ITS CONVERTED. SO HERE IS GOES:
UNZIP THE FASTBOOT FILE AND PLACE ON YOUR C DRIVE (OR WHEREVER YOU WANT IT)
IF ITS NOT ALREADY, MAKE SURE THE NAME OF THE FILE IS LOGO.BIN
PLACE THE LOGO.BIN FILE IN YOUR FASTBOOT FOLDER
USING COMMAND PROMPT (OR EMULATOR) CD TO YOUR FASTBOOT FOLDER: (example - cd C:/fastboot)
ONCE IN FASTBOOT DIRECTORY, BOOT INTO FASTBOOT ON YOUR DEVICE AND PLUG INTO TO COMPUTER (vol down and power...once fastboot appears, vol up)
TYPE moto-fastboot flash logo logo.bin (depending on if its home or work computer, I have to leave out the moto-)(It will tell you that the command wont work if you use the moto-fastboot. If it doesn just put fastboot and leave out the moto-)
AT THIS POINT IT SHOULD WRITE THE FILE TO YOUR DEVICE
THEN moto-fastboot reboot (same as other command, may have to leave out moto-)
AT THAT POINT, YOUR DEVICE SHOULD REBOOT AND BAM...NEW LOGO!!!
SO THATS ABOUT IT. JUST EXTRACT THE LOGO.BIN FROM THE DOWNLOAD AND FOLLOW THE ABOVE STEPS!!
GOOD LUCK!!!

Unfortunately I dont do much with boot animations...just the boot image that you see right before the boot animation. Here is a link to someone that does the animations and a pretty good directive on how to do it yourself.

Try a 401 rom and if you are using 4ext recovery, you should be all set.

You need to flash this recovery:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1561999
When you do it will ask if you are S-On -- say yes. Then when you boot into recovery and flash a rom it will boot one extra time and flash the boot.img for you so you don't have to do it manually.
Flash any CDMA rom with the base 401 and it should boot up all the way for you. Give it time on the first boot, could take up 10 mins or so.

thank you again.I how do I install it being that its apk file,i cant access home screen to get it my phone so what other was are there?
I'm having the same problem. I figured out by holding down the power button for 20 seconds when its stuck in the splash screen it will bypass the issue. If that doesn't work pull the battery out and put it back in. Hold down the power button down 20 seconds while it attempts to boot.... hopefully that will get it to boot into what ever Rom you previously flashed. I have flashed, several differant roms, done super wipes, modified wipes, flashed differant recoveries, updated the radio, and I'm still having issues where I get stuck in the splash screen or I have issues where I can't boot into recovery (its a hit or miss after a couple of different approaches)
This all happened after I went from ICS back to GB (mean rom)

I was only trying to help blackbolo boot past the splash screen.
I was only sharing my experience and resolution to my problem with the splash screen and recovery.
I'm not new to this...
When I mentioned recoveries:
I am having issues directly rebooting in to any recovery from bootloader or my rom
I have flashed twrp, 4ext and clockworkmod,one recovery at a time through 4EXT/ root toolbox/rom manager/adb and bootloader. After every flash I attempt to boot into recovery. For the most part each attempt failed where I get stuck in a boot loop or it freezes in the splash screen.
The only success I have had is clockworkmod 5.0.2.0 where I can reboot directly into recovery from my Rom or Bootloader... but I am still have issues booting back into my rom from recovery/initial power on/ bootloader. It gets stuck in the splashscreen or boot loops. I have super wiped and reflashed meanrom, then modified wiped reflashed, reflashed radio...
Either way when my phone reboots it stays in the splash screen till I pull and put back the battery. hold down the power button as it boots showing the splash....
Again I was just sharing what works for me for now till I trouble shoot and figure out what it could be... this used to happen to me when I had my G1 and the MyTouch Slide... there was residual files on the sdcard or partitions that prevented the phone to properly boot...

Just flash an older rom, any rom for your phone. GB for now. By whatever way you flash now. You have to take the extra step of extracting the boot.img and putting in your tools folder.
Then flash the boot.img from the adb with the command fastboot flash boot boot.img
Once you get a rom to boot all the way up then I recommend installing 4ext recovery touch.

Can I use X tools and roms for the X+
Can I just use the same steps and One Click root tools such as Thunder that I used on the HTC One X or does the X+ have some small technical difference that makes it so I can't use the One X's roms, tools, and tutorials?
I found the answer. Roms are not exchangeable and this toolkit works for HOX+
Hi all,
Please, please, please someone help. I have followed all of the instructions word for word and run the installer app. I am running a Mac and was attempting to install in place of stock Android.
At the end of the installation process the device showed up in recovery mode. The app told me it was over and to wait a moment for the device to boot. I waited 10 minutes or so and the device remained in recovery mode.
So - I then hit reboot from recovery mode and it booted to the Cyanogenmod face with an arrow circling it... Endlessly.
I then followed the instructions on the Cyanogenmod wiki to wipe and reset the phone in recovery mode before attempting the installer again. Same result.
I'm scared that i've destroyed my phone. I really think this should be able to be repaired but i'm just not sure how.
Please someone give me some help!
Which device?
Sorry - it's a Nexus 5.
And i've just tried to flash the stock factory image on Google's instructions, which resulted in the phone getting stuck on the Google logo and not booting. Wow... This is really making me feel sick.
