In this guide, we will show you the steps to download and flash the custom boot logo and animations on your Poco F3. Back in the early days of custom development, CyanogenMod was the go-to ROM, ClockWorkMod was the preferred or rather the only custom recovery, and Titanium was the sole way of taking backup. In those times, tweaking the start-up animations and logo was the favorite choice for tech enthusiasts.

While that has significantly reduced in recent years, but there still exists a niche segment of users who are interested in customizing the boot-up of their device. If you are also in the same boat, then this guide is all that you would need. From this post, you could download and flash the custom boot logo and animations from Google, Samsung, stock MI, and Asus onto your Poco F3. So without any further ado, let’s get started.

Moreover, the below process will not wipe the data, but still, take a backup just to be on the safer side. Droidwin and its members wouldn’t be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn’t wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps.

STEP 1: Install Android SDK

First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide.

So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on MIUI Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging.
