Hi, Is there any way that I can change the boot icon through an app.
I am rooted, but i really do not want to have to install a custom ROM  as I hate the tacky Vodafone logo on boot and power off. It almost makes my phone look like one of those cheap £20 ones you can get that are terrible compared to this!
Is there an app that can do this on the play store like this one, as I really do not want to have to flash a custom rom as I have got everything set up just the way I like it apart from the Vodafone logo.
Thanks
George

Download Blink, a great app that controls the status LED on the G300!

Wait for 5 seconds and then click skip ad! Do not download anything in the ad window, that is not the app!

If I really helped you, you could also donate to me.

(Boot animation installer 1.4.3 )costs very little and has loads of boot animations to install you can also edit them before the app installs it if you wish.
Bought this originally on my blade but it also works well on the g300 root is needed thought. J

If you already have a custom or other animation that you like, you can add it to the system/media folder overwriting the existing animation zips..

And if you delete those animation zips you get the default shiny android animation.

+1 on the "stock" android animation. I make a habit of deleting bootanimation.zip on all my roms.
But is the OP talking about boot animation or the initial splash screen? IIRC, the initial splash screen can be replaced in the boot.img ramdisk.
