[GUIDE] How to Create Custom Splash Screen (Boot Logo) for Wileyfox Swift

Creating custom splash.img for Wileyfox Swift:

Note:
This is not bootanimation, this is the splash screen (the 'Wileyfox' logo which is displayed when device is switched ON)
This is for Wileyfox Swift only..

Before proceeding, make sure fastboot is setup properly in your computer (just incase something goes wrong)..

STEPS:

1. Make sure you have a picture for your custom splash with:
i. Resolution: 720x1280
ii. PNG or JPG format
iii. picture size less than 200kB
iv. less colorful

(Tip: Try compressPNG.com to reduce no. of colors in PNG picture.
Upload your picture, click Settings, reduce number of colors to 16 or below & download it)

2. Download this tool to your computer: CM_Splash_Maker.zip
And extract it.

3. Drag & drop your splash picture on the file "CREATE_Logo.bat" & select your device.

4. After the custom splash image (filename.img) is created, the output directory will be opened..

5. Transfer the filename.img to the device's internal storage & flash it using Terminal Emulator like:

Code:

---

dd if=/sdcard/filename.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/splash

---

(Or you can flash it from fastboot as given below)

Note:
Incase you flashed & your device doesn't bootup, don't worry ;)
Just flash the original splash.img from fastboot like:

Code:

---

fastboot flash splash splash.img

---

Credits:
1. Based on my original tool for Yu devices here..
2. @GokulNC (myself ;)) who created this tool..
3. @beroid (who provided the stock splash.img & tested this).


Hit the Thanks :good: button if it worked for you ;)

You're welcome to post the custom splash screens that you made :)

Bricked Swift

Hello Everyone!

I recently tried to root my wileyfox swift but failed miserably. I did the following when fastbooting the recovery image -> fastboot flash system ****.img.
However, i realized my mistake too late, and now my phone is all messed up!
The phone doesnt show anything when i try to start it and i cant access fastboot again, to undo my mistake. My device manager recognizes my phone when its plugged in to my computer but i cant access any files.
Am i screwed or is there any solution to this?

Thanks in advance!!

Official TWRP for the Swift?

Ok so i have a question, i looked at devices page of the TWRP website and there is no Swift (crackling) in that list, however on the DL site of TWRP there is a Swift page with a download (can't post the link because this is my first post, without dots: dl twrp me/crackling/). Is this safe to install, and why isn't it listed on the devices page?

Tied everything to root swift, cant get past initial fastboot stage

hi all, sorry if this has beeen posted before but its bugging me as i spent literally 4-5 hours lastnight trying to sort it, i havee rooted 4-5 android phones in the past but im just having no luck with this one

i installed adb / fastboot minimal, enabled what needed to be enabled in developer options on the swift, booted the swift into fastboot mode, then when i run adb on my computer, the first command works 'fastboot oem unlock' but after that its constantly saying 'waiting for devices' whenever i try the next phase of commands ie. fastboot -i 0x2970 oem unlock-go etc it just wont detect the device at all in windows on adb, is there any suggestions anyone could throw out there before i end up sending it back and getting an alternative android phone thats easier to root? the only thing i can think off is its a usb driver issue? but i installed the gloogle usb drivers and it picks up the phone for file transfer etc so im not sure if this is the issue. many thanks!
