HI,

I haven't had a chance to really test it out yet, I've been super busy. I did test it when i first downloaded it and i think it may have deleted all of my contact #'s. Not sure it was the program or something i did as messing with my phone seems to be my new habit. At present i can record a message from an incoming call but i'm having trouble getting the greeting to play. Adjusting the settings may be all thats needed but i don't have the time to do it yet. If i get it under control i'll post what i did to get it to work.

Team DevDigitel Presents : Boot Animation Support For the Note 8!​

This is just the beginning of the thread, I haven't seen much development here for Rooted Note8 users with the Snapdragon,

so i wanted to share one of many flash-able mods i'm working on.

This thread will be for boot animation support and Anyone can share their customer QMG based boot-animations if they would like,

If you got it from another location and didn't personally make it please make sure to give credits to the original author.

And as always, I can not be held liable for the damage or malfunction of your device using these files, you proceed at your own risk and remove my liability by continuing to the downloads portion of this post!

HOW TO USE:

Prerequisites - Have ROOT & Installed Busy-Box into /System/Bin

1.) Download FlashFire from Google Playstore : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.flash&hl=en

2.) Open FlashFire and grant it root permissions, once granted you will hit the RED + on the bottom right corner.

3.)Choose install Zip / OTA option and then select the desired zip to flash...

4.)This will bring you to a menu where you should select Mount System as Read / Write and then hit the Check mark in top right corner

5.)Now its time to hit the bottom button that says FLASH !

*The phone will go black as FlashFire does its thing and then it will reboot, you should now be good to go with the new mod! ENJOY

I did notice after the reboot that FlashFire had trouble opening and a soft reset resolved this, this is related to the app itself not my mod.

And remember to hit the THANKS Button at bottom of OP if this helped you out!

Nice one. Will these work on the s8/s8+ too?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mod] Team DevDigitel:
worst case you can pull the SPR_bootsamsung.qmg

and place it in its perspective location, if you could check and see its path of where the sprint logos are located then i can be 100% confident on a yes or no answer.

the note 8 has them placed under:

/system/omc/SPR/res/media

other carriers are listed in omc as well, so non sprint users could just move the qmg and put it under the right spot and rename the stock ones .bak and have them work also.

a non active phone would just look at

/system/media/

This sometimes is the place they are just located at and the other location may not exist. But the QMG that i've built will work on any Samsung, with dpi being the only thing that may be a issue on a super small screen may sqew the image.

how to remove the GuyFawks Mask BootLogo?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mod] Team DevDigitel:
go to

system/omc/SPR/res/media/

delete SPR_bootsamsung.qmg

or flash the uncarrier mod, then go to that spot and remove the .off from the SPR_bootsamsung.qmg file to get the sprint logos back.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mod] iAmChump:
Can you do a tut or make a thread on how to customize these yourself. Maybe a video of how you made the anonymous an loading image To share with others. ?

Also. This worked great on my note 8. I had to remove a file called bootsamsungloop. To get rid of the Samsung boot image completely.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Themes, Apps, and Mod] Team DevDigitel:
There are tons of tut on how to make a qmg style boot animation. The samsung device lineup uses them vs the bootanimation.zip

I used the old Samsung customization theme tool. You can convert most the bootanimation.zip ones to qmg using the tool.

Samsung also has a development program where they will convert them for you! You must choose a device similar to the note 8 that has a unlocked bl, so any exynos variant works, And you can NOT send in copy-written martial as they wont touch it and they have a strict size and img limit.

The location you found the bootanimation loop is the place you need to replace the bootanimation files, so i use just a basic updater script to install the stock one renamed to .bak or .off whatever bs you want and then the new one named correctly. Permissions set and boom.

A great tool to use is zipme from the playstore, if you are rooted you can just take the stock one and build it into a flashable zip using it and then just replace it inside the zip with the new one you want. open my updater-script in the zip and look at how the commands are set, its super rudimentary.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] madcat676:
Hey everyone.

I'm sure there is still a level of uncertainty regarding my question but I thought I'd still ask.

Does anyone know if the Verizon Pixel 2 XL has a locked bootloader? I'm in kind of a pinch and need a phone now. I can get one from Verizon today but I can't get one from Google until the 25th. I realize that this is me being a little b*tc* about not having a phone and "right now".. but I'm curious if I'm going to run into issues later on by getting a Verizon version of the phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] TheSt33v:
The original Verizon Pixels had locked bootloaders, and so does every other Verizon branded phone from the past few years, so it's reasonable to assume that these will too. The Sunshine crew managed to unlock the original Pixel bootloaders on day 1 though (they even released it the unlock method for free), so maybe you'll get lucky.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] bsweetness:
The Verizon version does have a locked bootloader. No uncertainty about that. The uncertainty is whether or not someone will figure out how to unlock it at some point in the future.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] danon.brown:
I would say yes it's locked.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] lucky_strike33:
To be honest, reps have no idea what a bootloader is....Only way to find out is when someone gets the actual verizon phone
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] danon.brown:
You're right. I was about to go buy one at a store. When I asked can I just pay in full and walk out the guy was like no. He said it had to be active on a Verizon number. He recommended I buy from Google if those are my intentions.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] danon.brown:
I just bought a Verizon one. So I'll confirm

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] juggz143:
I am in pretty much the same boat as the OP where I needed a phone asap so I just went ahead and purchased one from Verizon (+ $40 for a month of prepaid smh) and yes my boatloader is locked (facepalm). I was hoping the same workaround for the OG pixel would work were as long as you initially boot the phone with a Sim from another carrier the bootloader would stay unlocked... So I made sure they didn't open and setup the phone for me. Unfortunately when I eventually did open it, it appeared as though they may have opened it and turned it on at least once (possibly specifically for this purpose smh). Now I'm either stuck or I could return it and take the L on the $40 prepaid + $35 restocking.

Luckily I like it enough that I can do without root and roms for now at least.

Fingers crossed someone finds an exploit.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] madcat676:
Thank you to everyone who replied to this. Due to your responses and the confirmation from those who've received their phones from Verizon, I am going to hold off and just wait for an unlocked phone from Google. If I'm paying $1000 for a phone, I better be able to do whatever I want with that phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] danon.brown:
Enjoy. Verizon claims there is no way to have it unlocked.
[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] deeproot:
Just so you know on my google store version the oem unlock was greyed out. SO i reset the phone and during setup said i had google FI . then connected to wifi and the option was available for me to toggle. I know this is a google store version but maybe this will be enough of a trick like last years to unlock verizon before putting the sim in (like i did)

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Hi all,

I unlocked my bootloader and flashed twrp on my G5 plus. Before I unlocked my bootloader I had amazing battery life. 8 hours and 15 minutes of sot at the most. Now I'm getting terrible battery life. I can't even last half a day. Does the phone understand how you use it and optimize the Snapdragon 625 or is it something else.

Edit: It also drains battery on standby
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
You have an app that is not allowing the phone to sleep... Install GSAM or other similar battery usage monitoring app and see what the offender is.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
What about the general battery drain. Before I flashed twrp and unlocked my bootloader I used to be able to make it from 6 a.m to 8 p.m. Today is my first day using my phone after unlocking my bootloader and flashing TWRP. After I set up my phone again (the bootloader erased all my data) I set up my phone and charged it over night. By this time of the day I should be at around 70% but I am at 49%. How do I fix this battery drain issue.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
It drains 1% every minute to minute and a half.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I'm planning to revert back to stock. How do I relock my bootloader and remove twrp. Can someone please provide instructions and the links for the files to be download
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Unlocking, installing TWRP, and rooting are NOT the cause of your battery drain... you should determine that first.

"Relocking" and returning to pure stock can be easy, or difficult, depending on your software version. If you were on the latest stock version then you will have to wait, because to relock the bootloader you must have a complete, digitally signed, factory firmware image that is flashed via fastboot... the process is well documented, but you cannot downgrade to do it, you must flash the same or a newer version than what is installed in your device currently.

See the problem yet? Yup, exactly... we don't have a full factory image of the latest version. We might get one tomorrow, might get one in 3 months, a year, or never, we don't know as all of them are leaks because Moto does not officially support that level of user self-repair on non-developer models.

So we go back to what I said at the beginning... Unlocking, installing TWRP, and rooting are NOT the cause of your battery drain... Work on that first, what have you tried?

Have you installed GSAM and looked at the monitors to see exactly WHAT is draining battery? Have you wiped the cache partition(s) in TWRP? Have you done a full factory reset?

You have decided to root... unfortunately this is not a Nexus device, you can't just stick your toe in and if the water is too cold you have can pull it out and forget going in the pool, for better or worse, now you have to jump in and just get used to it. :)
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I got gsam and I fully recharged my battery with the included wall adapter. I'm getting slightly better battery life but I'll see what app is the culprit after a full days use tommorow
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I was at 92% and now I'm suddenly at 89%. Did it really drain 3% or is my battery not calibrated
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Let it go to at least 70% or lower, then post a screenshot of GSAM

Did you do the cache wipes?

And "battery calibration" isn't a thing anymore, it's automatic every charge cycle.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I'm not rooted so I have to enable the extra stats thing through adb when I get home. Is it clearing the cache?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Sorry I'm kind to new to this but what are cache wipes
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Wait... You are not rooted, all you did was unlock and flash TWRP and nothing else?

Ok, power off and start TWRP, go to Wipes and Advanced, tick Cache and Dalvik Cache (verify nothing else is selected), and swipe to confirm and perform the action. Press Home - Reboot - System and let it reboot, if prompted about no SuperSU or Root, DON'T DO IT! Skip, ignore, not now, or whatever so it doesn't do anything but reboot. It will take more time than a normal reboot, so he patient. This does not harm your data or files in any way.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Ok I tried it. It surprisingly took under a minute.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I'll see if that makes a difference. Thanks :)
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
I tried to root but it didn't work. I first tried super su. I flashed it by twrp and it was successful. But when I went to twrp and I opened super su I could see the root check app in the background but super su kept on telling me that the super su binary wasn't installed. So I had root access but I had no control over it. Even cpu z told me that I was rooted. So I decided to uninstall super su and I re flashed it but the same thing happened again. One of my friends the told me to try out Magisk(apparently you could hide you have root access from apps). I tried to flash Magisk for the first time but it give me two errors while flashing it. When I opened the app it asked me to get the Magisk manager but for some reason they removed the Magisk manager from the play store. I did the same thing again but this time I got the apk for Magisk Manager 14.0 from apk mirror and it didn't work for me. So I uninstalled Magisk. So then I went to Snapchat and it didn't let me login because apparently Snapchat doesn't let rooted users use it. So then I decided to do a factory reset yesterday. (Before all this my battery life was normal about my usual 7 hours of sot). Then yesterday evening I noticed that it was draining a lot of battery. So someone said there was a fix only for the standby mode using minimal adb which basically forces the device to doze. So I have force dozed enabled and my standby battery life is really good. I slept with 62% and I woke up this morning with 62%(so that made a huge difference). I just cleared the dalvik cache and normal cache towards twrp and it seems like it's really helping. I'll change it fully again and hopefully things get better.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Clearing the cache and dalvik cache didn't help me
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
Did you try just installing the SuperSU app from the Play Store?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] mindmajick:
Is this really real?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] acejavelin:
What are you asking about?
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] DarthMaul14:
Yes it is. I'm giving an overview of what I did in case if I did something wrong while flashing super su. I found what's draining the battery. It's the cell standby

Bro in case you don't remember, xposed is official and working on all our custom n roms.

So if you just install gravitybox and set that feature on back button yourself, then every ROM in this forum will technically have what you want.

Also, each and every los ROM has that feature. Either in ROM settings, or in developer options (in end of list)

[Lenovo A7000 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other De] tanish2k09:
The point of ROMs is to find the one which best suits your need.:cyclops:

So your aim should not be to try all roms. Your aim should be to find a suitable stable rom which meets your daily needs.:p

All devs usually have a rom which they don't change for a very very long time. HDHR is using los14.1 from a couple months maybe. I was using viper since a month.:o

It's very nice to see you appreciate our works and wait so eagerly for it. It's great to have users like you. But remember there's a world outside of ROMs. My advice is to not waste time in changing roms too frequently. It's ok if you change once in a month or more. But wiping a stable rom within a week or days is considered bad for use. It points to addiction and it's our duty on xda as fellow users to warn you against this. Even I was a victim of ROM addiction when I was new. Time gave me knowledge and experience.:(

Anyways, it your wish to do whatever you want and I don't stop you from using anything available here in xda. But it's my duty to tell everyone this.;)

Peace out :D
