Is there a way to change the boot logo? I have tried a couple ways and to no success. Could someone make an app? I remember way back making an image and flashing it via command prompt and fast boot on my HTC Eris. Anyone have some light on this?

I have used this before in the past I know you have to pay for it but it gives you access to a great program in my opinion. When you buy it you get access to apk's for both GB and ICS. It does more than just boot logo's though.

I was able to make one using the above named app and gimp.

Plugin required for gimp to save RAW files.

More reading required here though on how to properly get it done.

When using gimp you must first save the file as an XCF extension then load that file back into gimp and export it to a RAW file. Then using the windows rename command change it to an IMG file (for use with the app above) or change it to a BIN file and flash it through fastboot..

Here is what i just made.

There are two utilities one by me, and one by Alex.Abraham

If you know how's to use ADB/fastboot it's actually very very easy to change your boot logo, but like its been mentioned, there are some simple utilities that already exist that can help out!

Only reason I mentioned the app above is becuase i like it, it does more than boot logo's, and it flashes IMG files you might already have on your phone without needing to be hooked to a computer to use fastboot. I mean are those utilities apps that can flash images from your phone? Also i know something might take up some more room on the forums but how many people with a Bionic are going to go dig through the RAZR stuff?

from root terminal:

busybox dd if=/path/to/logo.bin of=/dev/block/mmcblk1p10 bs=4096

Monkey do you have a link to your utility

[Alex.Abraham]

There should be links to both my and MonkeyMouth's utility. Only thing is we designed them for the RAZR and I am not aware of the requirements for the DROID BIONIC. I would assume it would work the same way and be compatible but I honestly have no idea

i never once said anything couldn't be posted. I simply posted what i knew about and or have used. All i see is people mildly complaining but have yet to see any other links posted. It's an open forum around here you want it posted feel free i don't know any of your links to things. I didn't even start this i just simply replied trying to help someone out and i am catching heat for it from everyone else.

OMG I am so sorry if my reply offended you in ANY way I was just trying to help. Reading over my reply I understand I could have worded it a bit differently to make it sound less threatening (WHICH IT WASEN'T!!!) And for that I beg for your forgiveness

[robthefive0]

Lighten up twinky, Alex is one of the least offensive people I've seen on here. He meant nothing by that post, I think you just misinterpreted what he was saying. He's always willing to help people, as it seems you are trying to do on this thread also.

[Alex.Abraham]

This is what I think is the biggest problem with online forums. People read comments and might find them offensive because they don't have a full conversation with someone to feel the emotion. One of the reasons I love DR is the chat room attempts to fix this issue. Devs or even knowledgeable users help out those in need whenever they can in real time and try to do so in the nicest and most meaningful way possible :')

It's all good Alex, keep up the good work.

[twinkyz1979]

My post wasn't mean to be directed at him so much as it was the others who have posted on this topic. I never meant to cause such a response by just simply trying to do what i could to help out.

I am sorry if i miss understood something i read.

[Alex.Abraham]

Awesome!!! I don't even remember what this thread was about

[twinkyz1979]

lol Maybe it should be deleted and one started with all the links to every ones programs with explanations as to what they do and such over here in the Bionic section just to make sure everyone knows they are out there and where to find them. even if it is only a couple posts redirecting to the threads in the RAZR realm.

[Alex.Abraham]

That's an amazing idea Even trying to find certain things on this site is annoying and I end up using Google

[无心草]

thanks

Was just trolling and saw this. For future reference, andlaw goes through boot logo change using commands, on RAZR - CDMA - ROMS - Black Widow 4.0.4 AOKP/CM:
