How to change our N6 bootscreen to match the new Google logo?

[Kimbaroth]

As many of us have noticed, our N6 is still showing the old "google" logo when our devices boots up, so I ask the next question:

Is there a way to swap the old logo to make it display the new one?

Regards,

sure, but not something that you can do, as you highly risk bricking your device to change it.

When I had my OnePlus One, I remember that there was a thread in the official forums that described the procedure to change the boot image, and people started posting flasheable zips that changed that.

same with the n5, but its not so simple on the n6.

With the N5, those flashable zips were actually modified bootloaders. I haven't seen such a tool here yet, though I haven't been looking. It took quite some time fter the n5 was released before that happened too. In fact I'd not long changed my bootloader before I ditched the n5 for the n6.

Yeah, I also remember flashing one of those zips on my N5.

Damn. D=

When i briefly had my Moto X 2014 dev edition, they have a flashable zip to get rid of the splash screen that had a warning about an unlocked bootloader on it, so i don't see why it can't be the same for the N6.

It all involved being able to inject the images into the bootloader. Now the motox may have a different bootloader, or even store the splash screen in a different location.

Samsung is different to HTC, who are different to LG, who are different to Moto.. But just because moto built this bootloader, doesn't mean it's the same as the other motos, because it's built to Google specifications.

Is it possible, yeah sure. It just needs to be figured out of it hasn't been already.
