I want to build a zip to flash/update the recovery. I can currently build recovery.img and flash it with fastboot. (using `mka recoveryimage`)
`mka recoveryzip` will build fakeflash zip but not writing to recovery partition. is there any rule to add to my Android.mk to build a real recovery zip?

Q/A:
1) What is this?
-> There is lots of method in XDA for flashing boot.img or recovery.img without PC.But in those methods you may have to know the boot or recovery mount point for newbies it is difficult.To solve this i have made this flasher.This is a universal flashable zip for flashing boot.img or recovery.img.This will work on any Device.
2) How it works?
-> When you flash this script using recovery,then the script get boot or recovery partition mount point from /etc/recovery.fstab and flash you boot.img or recovery.img in that partition.

Hi
What is the difference between a flashable zip and a .img file for installing twrp?
I found an unofficial twrp and they listed a .img file and a flashable zip.
The img one is no longer available but inside the flashable zip there's a .img file. Can I take out the img file and flash that?
I don't need a detailed response all I need is a yes or no.
Thanks
(link to the twrp if you're wondering)

Yeah go ahead and flash the recovery.img file thats your twrp recovery
Canyone help me with a flashable zip file for vendor. I have vendor.ing from fastboot but I need vendor zip file to flash vendor only through twrp. Android 9 or 10 both please.
If I run
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Spoiler
TWRP
my 7Pro boots into TWRP
But if I run
Code:
fastboot boot lineagerecovery.img
Spoiler
Lineage Recovery
it boots the ROM; I think because this image file include a Kernel but the TWRP img file not.
I would like to get the same behavior of TWRP img file with Lineage Recovery img file.
So, presuming I'm right, there is any way to make a recovery.img file, extracting it from a boot.img file?
