        Thanks. Flashing worked.
        How could we flash our own picture/image?

          that looks nice and clean, but I think theres a reason UBPorts hasnt used the plain canonical logo with all the marketing stuff

          Whether you think you can, or you can't, if you do not try, you will never truly know. So give it a Go.

            @magdesign I don't do programming, I just used the "imgdata" tool found here.

              I've made another boot graphic, which looks like this:

                @hammerhead Looks good but, the "P" should be lower case. Sorry if this seems picky

                  @Lakotaubp I didn't see anything about that in "Design Guidelines". There's also one without a wordmark here.

                    @hammerhead I mean it should be UBports not UBPorts

                        I like your proposition. How about picking one and have that integrated with next OTA/dev release for each ported device, a uniform and default splass screen so to speak. Anyone who wants to change it can do so.

                          @3T_Ed Problem is the partition will be written on each update, we had already discussions where people disliked our design and then complained they have to reflash manually after each OTA. There is no good solution other than make this a new function in the installer maybe, so that people can select what they want.

                          I would not force the logo through the OTA process though.

                            Thank you, I understand.

                            On my device I have this ugly boot screen (still saying 'powered by Android' yugh!). I know there have been some nice design alternatives, however the warning by the dev states that implementing it might cause the phone to be bricked, not willing to take that chance for a splash screen. If succeeded it might cause interference with regular updates

                            Having a 'default' and generic splash screen will get the uniformity in UBports supported devices. Could we have an option/slider in 'Settings' to activate the generic splash screen. I'd then be more willing to show my device to friends and family 😉

                            Thanks

                              @3T_Ed sorry no slider possible, its a partiton that needs to be flashed from recovery, and every device needs a manually crafted image for that.

                                @3T_Ed [...] we had already discussions where people disliked our design and then complained they have to reflash manually after each OTA.[...]

                                I thought it was a hardware limitation.
                                I think we need to find a good design common to all devices (having in mind each device limitation).

                                I was thinking:

                                • respect the brand logo as much as possible
                                • dark if possible (white bootscreens burns :D)
                                • elegant «powered by» and «supported by»

                                Another planet, another time, another universe!

                                  Guess: Ubuntu logo is mirrowed for western orientation ^_^

                                  I think the design is too bold overall

                                    @CiberSheep its a hardware limitation but we could get quite some number of boot splashes deployed, at least on the old devices. E.g. Samsung will be PITA. They dont like that something messes with their bootsplash.

                                    Remember, this logo is generated by the bootloader, before even any bit of Ubuntu Touch is loaded. So its under full control of the vendor, and thats also why there is a risk involved, basically up to bricking a device (at least softbrick but it could be even worse).

                                      Manufacturer or OS?

                                      elegant «powered by» and «supported by»

                                      That is bit tricky IMHO, Ubuntu getting their logo for recognition, nothing else if I understand right, so it's not true say support or powered by

                                      @CiberSheep So how you would recommend to address that in one single line? we can also, leave those icons with no line at all (better I think).

                                        Well, we are using Ubuntu so, I think it should still be stated. And it's being developed by UBports. That's why

                                            @Kaizen Wow i haven't been here in a while! https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Fairphone_logo.svg is a SVG of the FP logo for you to use in the future to make it look a little less blurry. I prefer the one on the right personally, but I would make yumi white and remove the backwards ubuntu logo. I'll try to make a version like it and make a flashable version for the phones, but it's been a while so it might not be perfect
