Need help new boot loader

Actually I am on modified twrp
Now if I flash CyanogenMod 13 with this modified twrp
Does it boot on u bootloader cause a problem
I just wanna get rid of oxyzen 3.0 and wanna flash CyanogenMod 13
No, you will have to flash one of many revert zip-files back to OOS 2.2.1 to get the old bootloader. Then you can revert TWRP to the one for that bootloader and then format data and reflash CM13.

hi,
I have an unlocked (bootloader) RN3 running MIUI 7.5.3.
Can i download the OTA update you mentioned in the link and update my RN3 to MIUI 8 8.0.1.0 using the build it updater application ?
Will it wipe all my data ?
Thanks
@farhantahir
Hi,
I have few questions please answer.
I am on global stable 7.5.3 with office unlocked bootloader and twrp installed. The phone is rooted and xposed installed as well.
1) should I update full recovery rom via twrp? with wiping all data?
2) does this rom re-lock the bootloader? if yes, can i again unlock it via mi unlock tool easily?
3) after flashing full rom do i also need to flash universal patch.img or lazy flasher to avoid bootloop?
4) superSU and xposed will work?
5) is the VOLTE support there in this rom?
thanks for your support
thanks
Thanks a lot bro.

If u have only unlocked bootloader and didn't rooted and flashed twrp then u can update via updater app. If u have flashed twrp then u can flash full recovery rom. And no u will not loose any data.

1-Ya u can flash full recovery rom via cofface twrp.
2- No bootloader is not locked again.
3-No need to flash patched boot.img if u use cofface.
4- Root and xposed will be disabled but flashing zips again restores modules to same state.
5- its official rom so i guess there will be volte support.

Would the stock OTA update cause any issues for UK 3 Branded phones?
The official update for us is going to be a while I think.
TIA ?
Would warranty still be intact as well?
Thank you and me

You should try it.I don't think it will affect your warranty because it is an official ota zip.This zip only checks if your phone is marshmallow or not, if it is mm, then it should flash properly.

I had to use SuperSU 2.79 to get proper (systemless) root, maybe this helps anyone. 2.78 got me rooted but my SIM didn't work with it.

The update is probably detecting the 3 version as a different rom so it wont install . If you flash to S048 row rom , let it update to S062 then you should receive the OTA update to nougat
wzedlare could you change your post to tell people to rename the stock rom from - P2a42_S062_170117_ROW_TO_P2a42_S232_170320_ROW_WC00AFB1F4.zip to UPDATE.zip
It will save lots of people saying it wont flash

If you flash any of the stock ROMs, will it affect a bootloader unlock timer that is in progress with Lenovo? Will it get reset or fail to activate in some way?

When you apply to unlock the bootloader the phone contacts Lenovo over the internet , so the countdown timer runs from their end . so your safe to reset , upgrade etc

How to update to PIE official (unlocked Bootloader with TWRP)

Guys today morning I got the OTA UPDATE to PIE. I am currently on v340 with an unlocked bootloader and TWRP already installed.
Should I go with the OTA update? Will it cause any errors?

Stay on oreo, pie is a disappointment over oreo in many ways, like BB reduced, sound quality reduced, no night light and most important you can't play PUBG in HD and many more.
If you really want to taste pie then you can use custom pie roms otherwise stay on stock oreo.

Can I update or not? I don't care if I lose TWRP. I don't play PUBGM. Will it cause any issues as my phone already has TWRP. Can I simply download the OTA and get on with the installation.

If your bootloader is unlocked then it's not a good idea to update via FOTA in my opinion. Wait for until someone made a flashable Twrp zip.

To install any rom using twrp you must download the rom and place it in your storage
Then boot into twrp
Click on install and and browse to your file click on it and flash it...
You can also do clean flash by wiping your sytem and data before flashing....
I saved update file on SD card, restarted mobile and update proces itself started.
Everything was fine.

I think I should wait till someone makes a TWRP flashable zip. Way too much hassle, again going back to stock rom using adb, then updating the rom, then installing Twrp and magisk again.
