Note: For Samsung Devices, we recommend using Odin Flash tool to Install TWRP recovery
You can find and download the official TWRP recovery build
for your device over at TeamWin’s website. We’ve linked all officially
supported devices below in the table. For most devices, you will only find the
Fastboot flashable .img files of TWRP. However, if you have a Samsung Galaxy
device, you’ll also find a .tar file, and we recommend using the .tar file
to install TWRP using Odin (a PC software to install/flash stuff on
Samsung devices).
If you already have TWRP recovery .img file for your device,
skip straight to the TWRP installation instructions below the TWRP download
section.
If you couldn’t find TWRP recovery image for your device on
the official channels, do a search on our website for an unofficial build. We
cover unofficial TWRP recovery builds for all sorts of Android devices that
appear on various Android communities like XDA. When you’ve the TWRP recovery .img file downloaded for your
device, follow the instructions below to flash TWRP recovery via Fastboot.
How to Install TWRP via Fastboot
Note: This guide assumes that your device has an unlocked
bootloader. If not, follow our detailed guide on How to Unlock Bootloader via Fastboot on Android.
