[MOD] Change Splash Screen and Bootanimation like Nexus 6P with new animations

Hi Guys, I'll show you how to change the BootLogo/Splash Screen with new Google logo and how to change bootanimation with the 6p one.
First you must be rooted and must have a custom recovery.
Download the logo from here(thanks to Droidphilev!):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3512671&d=1445324260
And the bootanimation:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B7V8PjYQw8kVR3dObXR2c0RSSkU
1. Flash the bootlogo in the recovery(if your bootloader is unlocked don't worry if you don't see the icon at the bottom)
2. It's highly recommended to use total commander for the next step: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
3. Grab the new bootanimation.zip file and paste it in system/media (delete the old bootanimation.zip file) and set the permissions to 644.
4. Reboot and enjoy!
###############EDIT###############
Just flash this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3733883&d=1461883901 thanks to @misterpyrrhuloxia

It worked!! Thank you!! Will this continue to work on later bootloader updates? Because whenever a new version of the shamu bootloader is released, I flash that. I just want to make sure that this will still be compatible with every bootloader version moving forward.

You are welcome I don't know,but it should work. Let me know

So I made a flashable zip combining both of these. I took the flashable zip from the OP, opened it up, and added the bootanimation.zip to it. It flashes the boot splash then backs up your current /system/media/bootanimation.zip to /sdcard/bootanimation.zip. So now you have one file to flash for both the boot splash image and the new boot animation.
Hit thanks!

Why did you combine this? What if a rom uses some other type of bootanimation and flashing fails?

Then I guess that they could just flash the zip from the OP and place the bootanimation.zip manually.

Thanks alot, I'd love to have TWRP 3.0.2 on stock rom.
But I can seem to get it to work, tried on a customized US an a customized DE stock image, latest version.
Doesn't boot on either, screen stays black when I try to turn on the tablet.

Yes bootloader is unlocked. kernel.sin for Custom DE attached (SGP612_Customized DE_1290-4946_23.5.A.1.291_R2D)

I don't get it to work either. SGP611, using SGP611_23.5.A.1.291_1290-0168_R4D customized UK. Won't boot, only flashes its red little light. Did you find any solution to it? Would be awesome to get this kernel.

Hi,
Have I sent you the correct file? Did you get the time to have a look at it?
No stress, just wonderin :angel:

is there a way to unlock bootloader using kinds of special hardware (like HTC xtc2clip)
(thanks O2 for locking the bootloader -_-)

Hey
Something new about black screen ?
Same problem here.

Thank you

If you are getting a black screen after flashing the kernel, just force restart the device. Then the device will boot fine.

Could a version of this be build with the device name "scorpion"? It won't let me install this ROM since the device name doesn't match (it seems to be empty in this image whereas that ROM requires it to be "scorpion").
Edit: nevermind, figured out I can modify the script in side the ROM to remove the check instead.
Thanks for a working TWRP for my old tablet

This kernel is only for SGP621. It's clearly mentioned in OP.

Think you!
Not easy for an old man, but after several times it went perfect.
Not able to tell you what I did exactly but I have SGP621, french 6.01.

SGP612 boot.img
Hi,
I made a boot.img for the SGP612 [6.0.1] [23.5.A.1.291] unlocked BL.
Sony RIC disabled
TWRP 3.0.2
(DRM fix)
Root and Xposed is NOT included. I recommend flashing Magisk v12 later in TWRP and enable Magisk Core Only Mode and Magisk Hide in the settings. Then it will pass the SafetyNet test and you can use su.
To flash the boot.img, put your SGP612 into fastboot mode (Volume Up + connect USB) and then run:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
If you have a backup of your TA partition, before you unlocked, see the rootkernel thread by tobias.waldvogel, how the DRM fix works.
Thanks to codfx for give me the idea for a SGP612 counterpart and to tobias.waldvogel for his tool :good:

I did figure it out what cost the problem, when i set up the phone for the first time it updated it to a new version which cost the incompatibility so i reflash the OEM rom that matches the patched boot.img and it worked, the only issue now is that the update fails, my Razr 5g is the unlocked version in the US. thank you

Can this be done to make a Verizon variant?

File IMG Patched for european firmware Android 11:
- Version: RPSS31.Q1-40-17-12-6
- Phone Model(s): XT2071-4-DS/PAJR0021RO
- Magisk Patched Boot.img
- Stock Boot.img

Anyone know where i can download the latest zip which contains boot.img? It's great to be able to root the first image, however any update after that makes root useless since the boot img causes issues and you'll wind up reflashing.
