If you view this text in Sublime Text you'll see that there's some zero-width characters being used as C# function names and class names. Very weird 🤔

This could probably be fixed by recompiling LogoBuilder with a more recent version of the .NET framework.

But until then, we're stuck with running LogoBuilder in a Windows 7 virtual machine. I've confirmed that it works in a Windows 7 Ultimate virtual machine

will it work for sasmung a02

trying to put a dummy file but the button gets greyed out anyway to force it?
[Android General] yooray:
this is just awesome! thanks for such a great information!
[Android General] sihag:
Flashing tool?
[Android General] ankadnikov:
How do you upload new firmware to your phone?
[Android General] sihag:
CWM simply.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
So, you should find somebody who has the same phone and can write CWM update scripts. I can't help you here.
[Android General] sihag:
That I can do myself but the prob is I cant fond logo.bin anywhere in my boot.img system.img or elsewhere, than where to direct flashing am suspicious about. Can u specify any particular location or locations? Is it there in your ROM? If yes than where?
[Android General] bgcngm:
Do you have root access? If so, you can backup your logo.bin by running the following command:

dd if=/dev/logo of=/sdcard/logo.bin

After that, grab it from the sdcard and work with it as you want. ;)
[Android General] desalesouche:
hi.if i have no logo.bin file no possibility to port one ? device concerned=huawei u 8230 kernel 32

thank you
[Android General] bgcngm:
This is only for MT65xx based devices. Your phone is based on a Qualcomm SoC. :D
[Android General] SethPDA:
Will this work on my Freelander PD10 Deluxe tablet?

Because I was following this tutorial, and it didn't worked for me:

http://www.flashmyandroid.com/forum...10-Boot-Logo-Splash-Screen-NOT-boot-animation

I am at work now, so I cannot test it yet.
[Android General] bgcngm:
Most likely no, if your device is not based on a MediaTek SoC.

There seems to exist Freelander PD10 based on MT6575 and also MT6577. Although, Deluxe model seems to be based on a non-MediaTek SoC.
[Android General] xylu:
where can i find logo.bin file?
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Version 1.4 released

Changes are:

1) Now it supports MTK6589

2) Can convert boot_logo to image and back

3) Packing and unpacking processes became much faster.

[Android General] ankadnikov:
LogoBuilder doesn't work with Galaxy Ace. Only MT65xx phones.
[Android General] bgcngm:
What were the changes to new logo files for MT6589? Do you have an example of a logo.bin so that I can test if my unpack/repack script still works with it?
[Android General] addictz10:

[Android General] manii001:
i just cant figure it how to use it. i dont know where is the logo.bin file. can anyone lend me a file with the logo. my screen size is 480*800
[Android General] ankadnikov:
You can get it from your firmware. Do you own MT65xx device?
[Android General] Benowit:

[Android General] ankadnikov:
Updated the LogoBuilder.

Added sizes for FullHD phones. See the first post.
[Android General] ivanbelejkov:

[Android General] JankyLV:
Hello!

I have MT6589 device. I successfully changed boot animation to cyanogenmod animations. that's awesome :)

BUT! I can't change boot_logo. There is no "images" folder in /system/media/ (yes, it's rooted)

Although my devices resolution is 480 x 854, and I loaded logo.bin from stock ROM, changed the picture, flashed the update.zip - the first boot logo changed, but not the way I wanted it to. It's distorted, multiplied horizontally 4 times.

I believe there's something wrong with the image I used, so I will retry it,

but when switching the phone off - still the stock phone manufacturer logo is shown. How to change it?

Thank you.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Not all phones have that boot_logo image. About image distortion - that's a bug. I'm sorry for that, it will be fixed soon. Now you can save your image with 32bpp color depth (e.g. via MS Paint) to avoid it.

About logo when switching off. I'm not sure what image do you mean, but maybe it is shutanimation.zip. It's located right near the booatanimation.zip.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
LogoBuilder updated!

5) Fixed bug with images distortion

6) Added console version (command line for kitchens or other autocustoms)
[Android General] JankyLV:
Thank you for working on it :)

shutanimation.zip is big in size (4.5mb), but the image I see when shutting the phone down - is static. It's some sort of phone manufacturers logo. The same thing was showing up, when I turn on the phone (it changed to the distorted one), but this one didn't change.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Get a new program version. Distortion bug i s fixed now.

And I don't know what image do you see when shutting down. It could be any custom image in your firmware.
[Android General] JankyLV:
Oh, that sucks. Thought that was common for the MTK devices.
[Android General] Assad Rafaq:
Hello

Thanks for such a helpful post.

I updated my QMobile A8 ICS to Jelly Bean, using INCPAK Custom ROM.

It is working fine, but Boot_logo is not up-to mark. I tried to change the boot logo using your above mentioned method.

BUT

I was unable to find the Boot_log in system/media/images.

I created copied one from my friends Qmobile and uploaded in system/media/images. To my surprise It works fine. .... BUT INCPAK logo still appears in start.

If you can guide me how to remove that.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Assad Rafaq, can you see "logo.bin" or "logo.img" file in your custom ROM? (don't try to find it in your phone, it's at the firmware folder, or in update.zip if you installed it via recovery)
[Android General] !fum:
very helpful software thx for this :)
[Android General] cellappfreak:

Thanks mate really created my logo.bin and flashed it its working like charm, before that my cell was not charging in off mode due to this logo.bin now everything is ok thanks for your precious effort. hats off

[Android General] ajparag:
I have a logo.img file. It was successfully detected by your program. I could edit and re-pack the file. However, when I tried to install update.zip, it gave an error - zip file not signed correctly. I also checked my /dev folder. My dev folder does not contain a logo.bin file. Then where should I direct this file. Any ideas? What path should I enter in the update-script?

The logo.img file is the right one as it contains the boot logo of the manufacturer.

I have a MTK 6516 based device (SPICE MI 270).
[Android General] ankadnikov:
You can try to write new logo file via FlashTool. Just open scatter file from your firmware, uncheck everything except LOGO, click LOGO and select your file, then press download. Hope it could help.
[Android General] naiponnoi:
this is great. thanks. I will try it with my Alcatel OT-995.
[Android General] pidjong:
Hi do you know where we can find the animating bars so we could edit its size or orientation?
[Android General] ankadnikov:
If you are telling about that green bars, nobody knows what draws them. It's something like preloader or uboot.

Trying to process boot_logo from my i6000.

-select boot_logo /copied from the phone/;

- select new project folder - get an error message: can't create project Error in data length (2nd case)
[Android General] ankadnikov:
You don't need to create project if you wish to change only boot_logo. Just click 2 buttons "boot_logo to image" and "image to boot_logo".

And try to read program description on the program's page, maybe you'll find some new information about phone boot logos.
[Android General] Maine_Coon:
I did read the description.

It does not work as intended.

I have found the work around, selecting boot.bin from the backup and then flashing it thru the update.zip.

It worked just fine.

But for all intents and purposes it is supposed to work the same way with boot_logo file since you did include it as a feature.

I am not complaining. On the contrary. Thank you very much for developing the app.

Большое спасибо. Сработало с файлом из бэкапа. Тем не менее, должно было бы сработать и с boot_logo файлом, поскольку Вы его включили в возможности программ. Ещё раз, я не жалуюсь, просто пытаюсь помочь улучшить Вашу отличную программу. Привет.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
There is no way to write boot_logo file to any phone via recovery by now. It's beacuse of too many ways of system partition mounting. So you need to copy it to the phone manually. And don't forget to set roght permissions.
[Android General] Maine_Coon:
That's fine.

I am glad you wrote this wonderful app. I am glad I have found a way to make it work for my i6000. I have my favorite start logo now. Thank you again.

I did copy boot_logo file to the pc, but of course, and tried to work with this file.

Большое спасибо ещё раз. Сработало для меня. Всё остальное не очень волнует. Чирс.
[Android General] coool_dud3:
can anybody help me to find out logo.bin file in my mtk6589 phone??

before i customise my logo bin i want to backup my stock logo bin. plz guys
[Android General] bgcngm:
If you want to do so make a backup using MTK Droid Root & Tools.
[Android General] Ionkiller:
Finally

I hate default boot logos, it just gets so annoying, probably because I find it hard to change, so this tool is very useful.
[Android General] coool_dud3:
you mean MTK tools backup will backup my logo bin and stock recovery right?
[Android General] les02jen17:
I know it says in the OP that it's for MTK phones... was just wondering if there's any way this will work on a phone that has Qualcomm Snapdragon S4? Or if you knew a guide to change boot logo/splash partition/logo.bin for those typer of devices, can you put up the link? Thanks.
[Android General] bgcngm:
Will backup all partitions. ;)

[Android General] Typhus_:
WOW!

This is a great program. Been looking for this for quite some time now.

But, unfortunately, I'm having troubles unpacking all the images from my logo.bin.

I have a bq Aquaris 3.5 (it's a MT6572 device) and the resolution is 320x480.

If I use "normal" logo builder I get 4 times an error like this one (only the size value changes):

If I try to use the unpacked version, I get this:

I guess I could go on with the normal builder, but I think that I would lose 4 images.

My logo.bin is attached on this post.

Can you help me, please?

I would be very grateful if you did.

----EDIT----

Well, I've tried to change the boot image, ignoring the errors mentioned, and it (kind of) worked.

The thing is, the phone boots correctly, the boot image is, in fact, changed and everything is ok

except for the charging animation when the phone is turned off

. I was suspecting this would be the issue so I've tested it. The phone, in fact, is charging but all I see is the boot image and doesn't go any further (usually it shows the boot image and then moves to battery charging animation).

Anyway, I didn't bother trying update.zip, used SP Flash Tools instead. Now I'm back on stock boot since I, again, used Flash Tools to push the original logo.bin.

If you would be so kind enough to try and solve this issue, this would be perfect.

Thanks in advance.
[Android General] sohailrabani:
hi i have tried but it dose,nt show charging screen only shows logo dont go for charging animation and kept restarting as i flash orignal logo everything comes back normal.for more info when i unpack orignal logo it shows total 38 files after repacking it contains only 36 files its skiping 2 files i dont know why.anyways i have tried many thing but it still do the same any help?
[Android General] kuronosan:
I get this same error on MT6572. Any solution?
[Android General] Typhus_:
Yes. You'll have to do this manually. I've already done it and it works.

Follow THIS guide to learn how to unpack and repack bin files for MTK devices.

Just hope you know your way around linux or Cygwin.

:good:
[Android General] ankadnikov:
That's strange. When you ignore the size error, the program doesn't convert these blocks to images and keeps them as binary files (as phone understands). Result file should contain these images unchanged.

I'll surely take a look at your file.
[Android General] MgudFrn:
My both logo and charging animation is distorted. Can you help me? Well the resolution of my MT6575 is 320x480 and all the images inside logo.bin is also 320x480. Dont knw what is causing the images to be distorted. :(:mad:
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Maybe your images have size 480x320 instead of 320x480. Try to edit sizes.txt and turn this size. Don't forget to close program before editing.
[Android General] MgudFrn:
Ya I have edited sizes.txt and that made size text (320x480) red so i changed the image to the same size (320x480). Saved all. Made logo.bin and flashed it. But the images are distorted...:(
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Give me your logo.bin file. I'll try to understand what is the problem with it.

logo.bin

[MENTION=4916584]ankadnikov[/MENTION]

Okay here is my logo.bin
[Android General] ankadnikov:
I haven't any distortion. Is it your original logo.bin file (taken from the phone or original firmware)?
[Android General] MgudFrn:
Well the images inside it are not distorted but after flashing when I turn on the phone the image on the screen is distorted. I took it from the firmware.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
And what if you flash this logo.bin without editing it with this program? Will it be distorted?
[Android General] MgudFrn:
I accidentally deleted the original logo.bin :D This one is already modified with logo builder. I think I should contact someone with similar phone for dumping original logo.bin again :confused:

troubles unpacking

Hi.

I'm having troubles unpacking a peculiar logo.bin.. LogoBuilder throws a couple of warnings and if I ignore and proceed it gets unpacked, however after modifying images, repacking and flashing to the device it doesn't work (just a black screen).

Could someone please take a look? (*was already searching but could not find it yet - is there a "format description" (of logo.bin contents) floating around?)

Tnx in advance.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
The program has a bug with ignoring block sizes. To avoid it you should recreate the project after you press ignore button in unknown size dialog.

The new release with this bug fixed will be issued in a few days.
[Android General] LoethonH@z:
i got .NET Framework 4.5 installed (i'm using win7 32 bit) and i can't open Logobuilder.exe. Please what should i do? :confused:

[Android General] kermage:
:good:
[Android General] ankadnikov:
Update 04.05.2014 (version 1.5)

1) Fixed bug with ignoring unknown blocks;

2) New image size changing dialog (now you can just scroll mouse wheel to get your image). So that awful dialog with three buttons is deprecated;

3) Now you can edit single image size right in created project;

4) Added new sizes to Sizes.txt (but who cares now, in consideration of second paragraph);

5) Added supportedRuntime. Now program can start in any .NET Framework veresion (starting from 2.0);

6) Added Portuguese (thanks to Typhus_).

You can download new version from the first post of this topic.
[Android General] LoethonH@z:
thanks i can't wait for that.
[Android General] ankadnikov:
So, did you try new version? How does it work for you?
[Android General] LoethonH@z:

And when i tried to go to public PC (using win xp), it works very well.

Hey Ankadnikov, thanks for the update, but unfortunatelly logo.bin I appended to my last post still doesn't recompile correctly (after flashing the screen is just blank).. there are no errors during decompiling tho. Could you provide any insight?
[Android General] ankadnikov:
No problems with your logo.

What phone model do you own and what platform is it based on?

And how do you flash new logo into the phone? Maybe you should try to flash it with Flashtool.
[Android General] elabjer:
its a mini android phone, mtk6572. I flash the zip produced thru recovery (haven't tried flashing via SPF yet).. you SW works flawlessly on all my other MTK devices (10+), except this one. It has a peculiar res (240x432); the original logo.bin size is 1024 KB, yer after repack only 204KB?
[Android General] ankadnikov:
In fact your logo.bin has size 167 KB, other bytes are 0xFF.
[Android General] elabjer:
Aha, noted. Ok, the fault must be with the flashing process.. I'll try it thru SPF later and report back...

---------- Post added at 01:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:14 PM ----------

Yes, as you suggested - your SW compiles the logo.bin correctly.. I've just flashed it thru SPF succesfully. This device uses the new UBIFS and (apparently) my recovery's (manually ported Carliv's touch for UBIFS) still isnt bugfree (I also have sporadic issues with general restore process, however most flashable zips work just ok).

Tnx for your assistance :good:
[Android General] ankadnikov:
UBIFS... You drove me to visit wikipedia :)

There is a chance another update-binary file at update.zip can help to flash new logo via recovery. And script file should be reviewed too.
[Android General] elabjer:
yep, I think you're spot on - just yesterday I had to change/replace the update-binary in AKitchen to flash this ROM sucessfully.. tnx :good:
[Android General] LoethonH@z:
sorry just mynoob curious, the new version still didn't work, is there others requirements besides of Net.Framework needed? i got jre installed, since i used to compile apk with no problem, and i used to edit boot_logo via Image_Search_Editor successfully (but this app can't edit my logo.bin) :confused: thanks.
