Microsoft have announced it is possible to turn off the loading image shown when a report is loading.
Loading Image
Use the Power BI Embedded JavaScript SDK to hide the flickering Power BI logo that appears when a report is loaded. - power-bi-embedded-feature-hide-the-power-bi-logo-during-visualization-load
However I cannot find any mention of this in any of the JS SDK documentation or any examples online.
Has anyone achieved this yet?

First add a gif which you want instead of the Power BI logo. You can add it in a div element. This element will overlap the div element containing the report. The HTML code looks like below:
<div id="container">
<div id="overlay">
<img id="spinner" alt="Alternate Text" src="image/giphy.gif"/>
</div>
<div id="embedContainer" style="height: 600px; width: 100%; max-width: 1400px;">
</div>
</div>
Once you have added your gif. Now, make changes in the JavaScript Code. So you final JavaScript embedding code will be:
<script type="text/javascript">
// Read embed token
var embedToken = "<% =this.embedToken %>";
// Read embed URL
var embedUrl = "<% = this.embedUrl %>";
// Read report Id
var reportId = "<% = this.reportId %>";
// Get models (models contains enums)
var models = window['powerbi-client'].models;
// Embed configuration is used to describe what and how to embed
// This object is used when calling powerbi.embed
// It can also include settings and options such as filters
var config = {
type: 'report',
tokenType: models.TokenType.Embed,
accessToken: embedToken,
embedUrl: embedUrl,
id: reportId,
settings: {
filterPaneEnabled: true,
navContentPaneEnabled: false
}
};
$("#embedContainer").css("visibility", "hidden");
// Get a reference to the embedded report HTML element
var reportContainer = $('#embedContainer')[0];
// Embed the report within the div element
var report = powerbi.embed(reportContainer, config);
report.on("loaded", function (event) {
$("#overlay").hide();
$("#embedContainer").css("visibility", "visible");
report.off("loaded");
})
</script>
You can also add CSS to align you gif with your report:
<style>
#container{
position:absolute;
width: 1400px;
height:600px;
}
#overlay{
position:absolute;
width:inherit;
height:inherit;
}
#spinner{
display: block;
margin-top:10%;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width:10%;
height: 10%;
}
</style>
Further, you can refer to the following youtube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhjtunTmnbw. This video is by the Power BI official YouTube account. In this video, you can learn how to get white-labelled embedded analytics in your application with Power BI Embedded. Discover how to hide the Power BI logo until the loaded or the rendered event, and how to use a personalized logo for the loading phase.

What the recommended way to do this, even in the article you referenced, is -
1. Hide the iframe (or the div containing it)
2. Listen to either the loaded
event when using (phased loading)[https://github.com/Microsoft/PowerBI-JavaScript/wiki/Phased-Embedding-API] or rendered
otherwise
3. Show the div you hid before and voila - the embedded power bi is already loaded..

It is not currently possible to remove the PowerBI loading symbol. It would be great idea to suggest to input your own custom logo though
