BOOT LOGO refers to the very first image that is displayed before the bootanimation. In most cases, it is usually the phone company's brand name.
For how to change the bootlogo on an MTK device, see https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-1324.html

Requirements

  • Stock ROM (in .pac format)
  • Download Research Download tool
  • Image you wish to use as the bootlogo
  • the image must be exactly the same screensize as your device (if it isnt the same screensize, you'll most likely get a blank bootlogo)
  • the image must be a bitmap .BMP image
  • the file size of the image must not be larger than the file size of the original image which is usually the partition size of boot_logo (if it is larger, you'll get an error when trying to flash)

  2. Note that there are two logo files >> the file with .bmp extension is the bootlogo file while the other with .bmp(1) extension is the fastboot logo file
  3. Create a new image using your favourite image editing software and save in BMP format. (You can duplicate the file if you wish to also change the fastboot logo as well)

Hi, thanks for your detailed guide, I followed your instructions step by step, but when I get to flashing it gives me an error: "BOOTLOGO failed: incompatible partition". I created a new logo by importing the old one on photoshop, making changes and then exporting it in bmp with
file format: windows
depth: 8bit
I replaced it in the folder and imported everything with the research tool. if I am wrong something I hope you can report it to me or help me in any way. Thank you for listening

"Nowadays, for higher version Android devices, it's common to have 'logo.bin' files with the .bin file extension instead of separate image files.
