+The required image format is BMP with a resolution of ''500x500px'' and a color depth of ''24 bits''.
+You can use the terminal to check the format of the default logo image:

-You can replace the default logo with your own **BMP** image.
+To change it, simply replace the default ''logo.bmp'' file with your own BMP image that meets the format requirements.

+Recompile the kernel. After flashing the new kernel, the boot logo will be updated.
-==== Ubuntu Logo ====

-The Ubuntu logo file is located at ''/usr/share/fenix/logo/logo.png'', replace the .png file to change the Ubuntu boot logo.
+The Plymouth logo file is located at ''/usr/share/fenix/logo/logo.png''. Replace this ''.png'' file to change the graphical boot splash screen.
-If you’ve [[/products/sbc/vim3/development/linux/build-ubuntu| built the image with Fenix]], replace the file ''archives/logo/png/logo.png'' to change the logo.
+If you are [[/products/sbc/vim3/development/linux/build-ubuntu| building a custom image with Fenix]], you can change the logo by replacing the file at ''archives/logo/png/logo.png'' before the build.
 ===== Android =====
-Because RK merged the logo partition with the system partition into a single super partition after Android 10, there is no logo partition available to dynamically modify the boot logo. This means that a complete firmware build is required to achieve this operation. Now, we have added a new custom partition to facilitate the dynamic update of the logo.
+Starting from Android 10, Rockchip merged the logo partition into the super partition, making it impossible to modify the boot logo dynamically without rebuilding the entire firmware. To address this, a new custom partition has been added to allow for dynamic logo updates.
+==== Logo Format Requirements====
-==== Logo Format ====
 <WRAP info >
-  *Where is original logo file
+  * **Source Location:** The original logo file in the Android source code is located at ''kernel-6.1/logo.bmp''.
-Logo file is stored in the kernel-6.1/logo.bmp directory in android code.
+  * **Required Format:**
+    * 16-bit RGB565 BMP format.
-  *BMP format, should be:
+    * Resolution should be ≤ 1080P (1920x1080 pixels).
-    *16bit RGB565 BMP format
-  *Resolution <= 1080P (1920 * 1080)

-==== Kernel Logo ====
+==== Update Logo via ADB ====
-We use the adb command to push the prepared logo.bmp to the motherboard path /vendor/custom and then restart the device.
+You can push a prepared ''logo.bmp'' file to the device using ADB.
+```shell
+$ adb root
+$ adb remount
+$ adb push logo.bmp /vendor/custom/

+After the device reboots, the new logo should be displayed.
+==== Update Logo by Rebuilding Firmware ====
-==== Updage the logo by upgrate whole firmware ====
+This method involves modifying the Android source code and building a complete update package.
-) replace kernel-6.1/logo.bmp bmp file
+) Replace the logo source: Replace the ''logo.bmp'' file in the ''kernel-6.1/'' directory of your Android source code.

+This will generate an ''update.img'' file.
-) Burn upgrate package update.img to your device you can refer How To Upgrate ,restart then you can see the new boot logo
+) Flash the firmware: Burn the generated ''update.img'' to your device using the standard upgrade method (refer to the "How To Upgrade" guide). After the device restarts, the new boot logo will be active.
