So you used twrp to flash the custom spash?

Did you flash only "custom boot"? Then reboot.

Yes

 

[sffmandrake]

Perhaps its because of pit partition sda4 size ...

[sffmandrake]

Im on b0f7 5.1.1 using twrp to flash zip folder will not flash

I ll try tonight to extract pit with BOGE then flash OH2, EXTRACT again then compare file size.

 

[ob1silvia]

Sm g925p rooted 5.1.1 update b0f7 with custom twrp recovery. I wonder if the zip created is for only stock bootloader? Please some one chime in would like this installed but some thing is wrong with what im doing .

Typically users beat me to the punch on things such as this. But no one has yet to do so, so here it is.

How to extract your param partition:

It's located in  /dev/block/sda4. On device terminal or in adb terminal as root run,

dd if=/dev/block/sda4 of=/sdcard/param.bin bs=4096

Now that your param partition has been dumped you can copy it off the device as I do to work with it. Untar it with this command on linux:

mkdir /param
cd param
tar xf /path/to/param.bin

Once its untared to the param directory, you will see the contents. logo.jpg being the file you wish to change.

Once you have found/made a proper logo/splash in the proper resolution of 1440x2560 copy it to the param folder overwriting the old logo.jpg, and run this command in the param folder to pack it back up:

tar cf - `ls | sort -t.` > /path/to/where/you/want/to/save/param.bin

NOTE: The param partition has limited space, so keep this in mind. I have successfully used a 400kb jpeg with out issues. I wouldn't go much more then that.

Place the param.bin back on your sdcard and run the following to flash it:

dd if=/sdcard/param.bin of=/dev/block/sda4 bs=4096

Reboot and enjoy.

Users wishing to deploy all these commands on device (if you don't run linux) here is a script I made, tested and working to do so. Place files on device accordingly.

#!/sbin/busybox sh

# Extracting  param partition
dd if=/dev/block/sda4 of=/sdcard/param.bin bs=4096
mkdir /sdcard/param
cd /sdcard/param
tar xf /sdcard/param.bin

# Replaceing logo.jpg, repacking and writing back to device
cp -f /sdcard/logo.jpg /sdcard/param/logo.jpg
rm -f /sdcard/param.bin
tar cf - `ls | sort -t.` > /sdcard/param.bin
dd if=/sdcard/param.bin of=/dev/block/sda4 bs=4096

Attached you will find a flashable zip of a custom boot screen i made. You're all welcome to use. As well as the Stock param.bin in case users wish to go back. And the image I made for the custom boot splash I'm attaching.

flashed with flashfire works great and looks great......i love it 920T

Do you know a way to fix the boot splash size when you using density 480 and resolution 1080x1920 ? It's starting at default resolution then after some seconds it's switching to the custom one.

Thanx in advance if someone can help on that :good:
