Android bootloader has been defined as a programming code that gets executed automatically before you run the operating system. Bootloaders vary from one device to another as every device has its own bootloader which works as an instruction mechanism to the operating system kernel and instructs them from where to boot. However, Android being an open source platform is equipped with separate hardware specs which make bootloader classer different from one another.
Even though Android is an open source, one can still see that the bootloader is generally locked on each and every device. The reason to keep it locked is that the manufacturer wants that the user must remain on the platform that has been specifically designed for that particular device. Manufacturers do not want the users should modify the security settings of their operating system. This is the reason it is imperative for us to unlock the bootloader before the Custom ROM can be installed.
The one reason why Samsung has been such a preferred choice amongst the users is because the process of rooting their device is readily available on the internet. This is what makes unlocking of its bootloader a simple and relatively easy process. The first step to rooting any device is by installing Custom ROM and kernels which cannot be done until the bootloader has been unlocked.
