Hi all . Please tell me how to correctly replace or update the bootloader, for example, I had TWRP and now I want to install /e/ bootloader or vice versa?
Or, for example, a new version of the bootloader has been released, if I execute the command, will it not damage my system?
LineageOS and /e/OS have moved to the simpler recoveries. These recoveries have been designed to keep parallel to builds not just Android version. The system updater (I believe as default, some / all, idk) now offers to Update recovery with regular updates.
I guess it would be device dependent but three devices I know offer this.
But when you ask how to “change the bootloader correctly” this would require a device specific answer imho.
it is not possible, the bootloader stays stock,
even when you install a custom recovery like TWRP or the recovery-e,
it will preserve the bootloader provided by the vendor of the device.
TWRP is not a bootloader, it is a custom recovery manager.
you need TWRP version 2.8 minimum to use it to update the recovery partition
otherwise, you need to use fastboot (odin or heimdall in case of Samsung)
Hello . Thanks for your answers.
Yes, you’re right, it’s impossible!
This means that when I bought a phone for example Samsung Galaxy S7 and want to install /e/OS, then I need to immediately decide on the custom recovery manager, it will be TWRP or /e/OS recovery .
That is, the algorithm of actions is as follows:
