I facing the issue that I see no Boot Animation like the spinner and the Ubuntu Logo. Only the OEM logo (ASRock) is shown. I followed some Instructions mentioned in No spinner animation on boot screen (Ubuntu 20.04) but with no success.

I compared my Desktop and Notebook (where all is shown (Dell OEM Logo, Spinner and Ubuntu Logo)) in /etc/default/grub and sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth. Both are the same.

/etc/default/grub:

# If you change this file, run 'update-grub' afterwards to update
# /boot/grub/grub.cfg.
# For full documentation of the options in this file, see:
#   info -f grub -n 'Simple configuration'

GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

Uncomment to enable BadRAM filtering, modify to suit your needs

This works with Linux (no patch required) and with any kernel that obtains

the memory map information from GRUB (GNU Mach, kernel of FreeBSD ...)

#GRUB_BADRAM="0x01234567,0xfefefefe,0x89abcdef,0xefefefef"

Uncomment to disable graphical terminal (grub-pc only)

#GRUB_TERMINAL=console

The resolution used on graphical terminal

note that you can use only modes which your graphic card supports via VBE

you can see them in real GRUB with the command `vbeinfo'

#GRUB_GFXMODE=640x480

Uncomment if you don't want GRUB to pass "root=UUID=xxx" parameter to Linux

#GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID=true

Uncomment to disable generation of recovery mode menu entries

#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"

Uncomment to get a beep at grub start

#GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

sudo update-alternatives --config default.plymouth:

Es gibt 3 Auswahlmöglichkeiten für die Alternative default.plymouth (welche /usr/share/plymouth/themes/default.plymouth bereitstellen).

And here the Ubuntu boot record:

initrd  /boot/initrd.img-5.4.0-52-generic

I also reinstalled all plymouth related packages and there's no success either.

The following packages are installed:

libplymouth4/now 0.9.3-1ubuntu7.18.04.2 amd64  [Installiert,lokal]
libplymouth5/focal-updates,now 0.9.4git20200323-0ubuntu6.1 amd64  [Installiert,automatisch]

Edit 2020-11-04: It might be a issue with the proprietary Nvidia drivers as mentioned in this link. I followed this instructions but got no success. Here the same but no success.

Btw. my Nvidia driver version is 450.80.02.

You should add the set gfxpayload=keep option

Like this:

recordfail
load_video
gfxmode $linux_gfx_mode
set gfxpayload=keep
insmod gzio
if [ x$grub_platform = xxen ]; then insmod xzio; insmod lzopio; fi
insmod part_gpt
insmod ext2
set root='hd1,gpt2'
if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then
  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd1,gpt2 --hint-efi=hd1,gpt2 --hint-baremetal=ahci1,gpt2  454b3874-3032-4cb6-9e5c-92a00ed53afb
else
  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 454b3874-3032-4cb6-9e5c-92a00ed53afb
fi
linux   /boot/vmlinuz-5.4.0-52-generic root=UUID=454b3874-3032-4cb6-9e5c-92a00ed53afb ro  quiet splash $vt_handoff
