Install TWRP 3.7.1-0 Recovery on Android using Fastboot

This method is the one most people opt-in for, since it writes the Recovery to the partition of your phone permanently, and you can easily boot into it at any later date on command. This method requires a PC with the latest ADB and Fastboot installed with all the optimal drivers, and a data transfer cable.

Pre-Requisites:

• Charge your phone: Make sure to charge your Android device to about 50% or more for a smoother, uninterrupted process.
• Install USB drivers and ADB Fastboot Tools: You need the latest USB drivers corresponding to your Android device and the latest ADB and Fastboot tools installed on your PC.
• Enable Developer Option: The developer Option is a hidden set of settings in your Android phone, which you can enable by tapping on the build number 7 times until it says, “You are now a developer.“
• Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlock: You also need to enable USB debugging, and OEM unlock on your phone. In order to do that, follow our guide here. In the same place, you will also find a toggle to enable OEM to unlock as well.
• Unlock The Bootloader: Make sure to unlock the bootloader before installing TWRP Recovery on your phone.
• USB Cable: Grab the official USB cable for this process.

Instructions:

1. Download the latest TWRP 3.7.1-0 Recovery and transfer it into the same folder as your ADB and Fastboot directories. Rename this file to something simpler like Recovery .img for convenience.
2. Right-click your mouse while holding down the shift key, and from the menu, select Open Command Prompt to launch a terminal.
3. Now, boot your Android device into the fastboot mode (usually done by holding down the Power and Volume Up keys simultaneously).
4. Connect it to your PC, and type in the following command to confirm the connection :

   fastboot devices

5. If everything’s fine, you should see your device connected in Fastboot mode with a serial identifier next to it.
6. Now, proceed with installing the Recovery using the following command :

   fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
   

   (Replace the filename with what you have saved)
   

7. For devices with an A/B partition, you can’t flash the Recovery to the system partition permanently. You will have to manually boot into the Recovery every time you want to use it. For that, enter the following command :

   fastboot boot recovery.img

   (Replace the filename with what you have saved)

8. Once done, type in the following command to boot directly into the recovery mode :

   adb reboot recovery

Upgrade TWRP Version on Existing device

If you already have an older version of TWRP recovery installed on your phone, then you can follow the steps below to update the TWRP recovery on your phone with the latest version available.

1. Download the latest version of TWRP and place it in the root directory of your phone.
2. Boot your phone into recovery mode.
3. Head over to Install>>Install Image.
4. Now locate the TWRP recovery file on your root directory.
5. Tap on it and Swipe to flash the file.
6. Then go to Reboot>>and tap on Recovery to boot to the latest TWRP version.
