Black logo.bin - Google Pixel XL Themes, Apps, and Mods

I searched this forum but couldn't find anything about anyone creating a black logo.bin file for the Pixel XL. I downloaded one from another forum. This one here https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/google-pixel-bootanimation-t3481334 but when I try to fastboot it I get this error:
C:\ADB-1.41>fastboot flash logo logo.bin

Thanks

If you mean where it's located on my PC. It's in the same folder as the fastboot executable. If you mean the location of where it would be on the Pixel XL that I don't know.
Thanks

Sorry, we are unable to flash any boot logo to our phones yet.
If you search the forum again, you'll see that I've already posted about this.
A tip for searching is to search thread titles only. Like search for thread titles with "boot" or "logo". :good:
Last I checked, not even the Nexus 6P folks can do boot logos on Nougat.

Thanks, I was able to install a black boot animation. So It goes from the black unlocked bootloader warning screen to the white boot logo to the black boot animation. I was hoping to make them all black.

me too..

Pixels don't use the logo.bin. That's usually seen on Motorola's. And it's in the bootloader's partition so be careful. You can easily brick your phone if you damage the bootloader. The only Google devices you can modify the logo on are the Nexus 6&5x (5x uses imgdata).

I would totally donate like $10 if there were a boot logo mod bounty thread.
Here's a Nexus 6P thread where some guy was actively working towards their phone but couldn't get it going.
6P is a different mfg phone though and may not be anything similar to ours.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/orig-development/mod-change-splash-screen-warning-t3260264

I'd donate as well, I just love getting my retinas burned off in a dark room!

Try writing logo in capital LOGO

Nobody else took the initiative, so I posted a PLEDGE thread at the link below:

HTC One M8 Stuck in Fastboot Menu

As the title states, I recently woke up to find my phone in the fast boot menu.
I have no idea what's going on or why it's in this state, as I've done nothing to it.
No root. No custom recovery. Nothing.
I simply put it down before I went to bed and that was all.
I've tried going into the 'hboot' option and selecting Fastboot, recovery, and even Factory Reset as a final option. All that happens whenever I've selected any option is that the phone reloads back into fastboot. The splash screen before hand is of 3 android mascots on skateboards.
I've seen some other threads here with similar issues, yet none like mine.
They've all seemed to be rooted phones, with or without custom recoveries on them.
I've no idea what's going on with the phone and would really appreciate any help or advice.

So if its never been modded, the bootloader screen should also say LOCKED near the top and SOFTWARE OFFICIAL (or something like that). Can you confirm those?
If so, you can try to run the RUU and see if that helps the issue. Just download the RUU to a Windows PC (Win7 and USB 2.0 for best results), connect the phone to the PC in bootloader-fastboot mode, and double-lock the RUU executable to run it. You'll also need to have HTC Sync installed on the PC.
Find the 4.20.531.5 RUU here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2714456

Yeah, as you said, it says
*** Software status: Official ***
*** LOCKED *** (highlighted in purple) on top in the menu.
I have actually tried using the RUU software before. The times that I've tried using it, it attempts to reboot the phone back into the fastboot menu, which turns it off. The phone never turns back on in time, for as soon as it does, the software says it's unable to do it.
Though I haven't tried that double-lock method you mentioned. And I do have the HTC Sync software installed as well.

It should say "double click" (to run the RUU program). Not sure if there was some runaway spellcheck going on there, when I posted. But its not any different from what you've tried.
Another method you can try, is to download the RUU zip from Post #4 of the same thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51836733&postcount=4
Rename to 0P6BIMG.zip, copy to SD card, insert card into phone, and reboot into bootloader, and it should automatically install it.

Search to see if it was posted elsewhere (4.20.530.4 RUU in zip format). Otherwise, another option is to run the RUU.exe on your PC, then look in your Windows temp folder for a ROM.zip, which is the same thing (zip format RUU).

Alright, so I've gotten the rom.zip from the ruu.exe.
I've renamed it as you said to, moved it to an SD card, and popped that SD card into the M8.
I turned on the M8 and it went into the fastboot menu as expected. I then selected the hboot option.
It then started to read the zip and flash it, then asking if I want to start the update.
After selecting yes, the bootloader started updating, but the partition update failed.
it read,
[1] BOOTLOADER - Fail-PU
*then after a list of 15 other items
Partition update fail!
Update Fail!
Device halted due to large image update fail!
Press <power> to reboot.
Hi,
You should unlock your bootloader and flash recovery to get it back in stock if the RUU don't work..

If you got a error, verify if you have all drivers installed and if adb detect your device..

This is false. Stock recovery is not needed for RUU, but it is for OTA (which RUU and OTA are two very different things).
In any case, it doesn't appear the device was ever modded (to not have the stock recovery) in the first place.

Can you post the whole install log output?
Failure to write partitions with the proper RUU (locked bootloader, stock device), plus the spontaneous OS failure that started this whole discussion, to me implies a sudden hardware failure (bad emmc, etc.) and you might be out of luck here.

From selecting hboot on the Fastboot menu, it then says,

some other text flies by on the screen to fast to be read, then it says 'Checking Hboot Version . . .'
Then it says,

After clicking yes, it begins to update the bootloader

but then that fails, saying

The at the bottom of the list, it states,
Partition update fail!

Press <power> to reboot.
Unfortunately, the full output doesn't shed any additional light. Based on the collection of symptoms, I'd tend to think you have a hardware failure. Sorry . . .

Well, thank you for trying to help out anyways. I'll continue to exhaust any and all additional options I have left, as I still think that the phone can be saved. If I'm proven wrong, and there's nothing that can be done, then I'll give up.
Still got hope though

You can change the cid and main version by changing misc partition. I hope. then you can flash.
Prepare a misc.img file in computer with CID of zip version ( cidnum: HTC__060 or cidnum: HTC__059 or cidnum: HTC__058)
You can also downgrade the firmware using this method.

DEVICE INFO: LG-V521 - LG G Tab X 8.0 T-Mobile
I can get my tablet into fastboot, that is it.
What happened?
* I could not get custom roms to boot(like not even the boot screen for them, it would just reboot into TWRP over and over no matter what rom I tried to install.
* I then reflashed my recovery via TWRP to a different version of TWRP(now TWRP wont load at all either).
Now my tablet only shows LG logo screen, and fastboot..... I don't know what to do.
Any and all help is appreciated.
PS C:\Users\admin\Downloads> fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

PlasmaStrike is my roommate and he must have been logged on already when I originally posted. Okay sorry this is a bit confusing to me, I managed to get the tablet into Download Mode after holding volume up and fanatically pressing and depressing power button at the same time (This tablet is horrible about acknowledging the commands to put it in its menu's). It finally went into download mode(Thank the gods it wasn't soft bricked). I was successful in getting the stock ROM installed and re-applied TWRP successfully. So basically the reason I couldn't get fastboot to apply TWRP to recovery is that, LG the device manufacture doesn't actually have fastboot... so you have to do exploits in the stock ROM to get the boot-loader and all of the nity gritty stuff online through that instead, really stupid if you ask me but ehh i'm not LG.
So for sanity sake should anyone ever need the files, drivers and instructions to fix this type of problem in the future:
The following contain a mirror of: stock ROM, Flashing Software, Instructions, Drivers, & one Custom Rom I have used.
One is Mega and the other DIAU.NET is my own server, if you have a really fast connection just use mine so you get it faster.

Try this command in ADB

I got same errors, fixed by formatting using fastboot erase userdata and the qfil.
I got in this situation because of messing up with encryption and ended with corrupted system partition.

Hi all,
it was a pain in the ass but i finally got it back to work..
What happened:
Flashing a corrupt image messed up the phone completely. After playing around a bit the phone doesn't enter EDL mode with Pwr-Vol- anymore.
The phone always started into TWRP, luckily fastboot was still available in bootmanager.
Another strange thing was that TWRP forgot all settings after reboot.
Nice guys in this forum gave the tip to modify a USB-C cable as it was explained on zukfans.eu, that brought it back to EDL - yeah.
But this also didnt solve my problem since that flashing process exited with an error - damn.
My solution after hours of trying flashing various Stock releases....
1. I had to reformat /dev/block/mmcblk0p16 with ext2 ( seems to be destroyed for some reason) mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p16
2. Create /system folder (mkdir /system) in TWRP -> advanced -> Terminal)
3. Flash boot.img from stock image ( Enter fastboot, connect to PC, open cmd prompt and enter adb directory) fastboot.exe -i 0x2b4c flash boot boot.img
4. Flash lastest (seems to be important in my case) TWRP with fastboot.exe -i 0x2b4c flash recovery twrp.img (or whatevery the filename is)
5. Reboot into TWRP and transfer flashable image to the phone and flash it as usual.

After formating userdata, there will be nothing in the data partition, i think you should also format system, and try twrp by hendibul which is for removing encryption but may help, or try twrp version 3.0.3.0 if both methods failed, try with different earlier versions, and remember to format userdata and system everytime with fastboot and flash recovery by fastboot.
I think you should also try mi flash which may work after formating userdata and system.

where can i find the link to hendibul. Google search shows zero results . can you give me a link?
Qfil and miflash always gives me successful flash. I just cant boot the system after that. Will get stuck at zuk logo. I guess it because something is wrong with the partition table. TWRP cant mount system because of that.

Hendibul twrp is included in zui roms, go to zui Oreo twrp flashable threads and find in post, some user extracted and shared it. If my memory is good then there is one thread in which hendibul have shared modded twrp.
There is also a chinese twrp which u can find on zukfans.eu
I dont know if any of these will work or not, but as you have already tried and nothing is working, then you can try these if it works if will be wonderful

Have you tried qfil and mi flash after formating system and userdata by fastboot?
You should try every available zui. One of them should work.
In mi flash there is a option of clean everything and re lock try that.
And before flashing, boot device in edl mode.
Adb reboot edl

Before flashing it with pc, make sure it is shown as qhusb dload 9008 after boosting edl.
After completing flashing, wait a minute disconnect device and press power button, it will vibrate for a long time 2 3 minutes then it will boot.

Well, I and most others can't help beyond that, you need to dig deeper in internet, may be someone else also got same issue and resolved it.
One last suggestion, try with deep flash cable or try with removing battery and then flashing, i have seen some people successfully flashed by this way.

Tried again with miflash and rom version 2.xx. success but stuck at zuk logo. Fastboot says locked now. For rom version 1.9.xx it stayed unlocked even when i chose erase and lock in miflash. Attaching fastboot page pic.

I found an alternative for deepflash cable. Shorting pin 2 with a copper wire can change 900E to 9008.qfil always kick me to 900E and now im an expert in getting back to 9008.:laugh: Deepflash cable is just for accessing 9008 port. Right?

Either flash with higher version of zui, with qflash or try to unlock and flash twrp, i think its giving some good signals.
If its locked and unlocked it means bootloader and recovery partition are working, and recovery can fix system, thats what the work of recovery partition.
One thing is striking in my brain is if its locked, then there should be stock recovery, if its not there flash using fastboot, and try to install update.zip from stock recovery.

What i can see is device is completely stock now, so try to flash official zui with higher version with updater. Zip file place in root of internal storage, for this you can use Adb push commands.

Why is everything so hard with this device. I cant find a stock recovery file from xda and zukfans.eu. quick question can i extract the recovery.img from a qpst rom and fastboot flash it?

Yes you can,
Also if you have twrp backup, you can use that as well.
BTW if you still don't have stock recovery, try flashing once more may be this time it also flashes stock recovery.

Question How to get TWRP Recovery on Moto G60S?

Hi!
I can't seem to be able to flash 3.6.2_11-1-hanoip TWRP on Moto G60S.
— the Official App crashes each time when i press "FLASH TWRP"
— when I'm trying to flash with ADB by fastboot flash recovery_a twrp.img I'm getting (bootloader) Invalid partition name recovery_a error (same goes for recovery_b and recovery)
— when I'm trying to do fastboot boot twrp.img, I'm getting (bootloader) Command is not support error.
What am I doing wrong? Or maybe hanoip won't work for 60S at all?
Hi , hanoip is the dev code for G60 , and you have the 60s. G60s dev code name is lisbon.
Yeah, I know, I decided to try my luck as I don't think I'll ever get a dedicated TWRP. Oh, well, nevermind.
