Building a splash screen

For older devices (for example redmi 4 down), you can set the mode, available modes, namely Compatibility and Latest Modes.

Here are the differences in the modes:

Compatibility mode

The compatibility mode is suitable for device redmi 4 down, even on other phones, lack of this mode for Xiaomi Redmi 4 down if using the latest firmware, the effect of the logo is only brief, to solve this problem, please use the Latest Mode.

For the Redmi 5 series and above, it is recommended not to use this mode because the firmware is the latest.

Latest Mode

The latest mode is usually used for the redmi 5 series and above, and the latest firmware for the previous series.

There is nothing special about this mode. just add a few images to be compatible with the latest firmware.

Change mode

For Note series users

For the Note series, usually the size of the image file is limited, to solve this problem there are several tricks so that the image is compatible with the specified size limit:

Using Compress

Compressing image files is a suitable trick so that the image is compressed, although it must sacrifice quality. But the results aren't too bad for black and white images.

To compress images, you can use compresspng.com web, here's how to make the image compressed to the maximum:

  1. Click the upload files button
  2. After uploading click the image to enter the settings section
  3. After that, look at the side, change Colors to number 2
  4. Then click the Apply button
  5. After that, please download the image

Using Crop Image

Cropping an image is the last option so that the image size is compressed, crop this image only crop the middle part of the image logo.

Every cropped image will appear in the middle of the splash image.

The following is an example of a cropped image

Before cropping
After cropping

For this bot splash, all devices listed are 100% safe , if the splash fails or corrupts the logo will change to the penguin logo , and it must be 100% booted, it won't cause hardbrick/bootloop. already tested to my tester and myself.

Please do not try to another device unsupported with this bot. I am not responsible if your device has been softbrick.
