Removing TWRP, or stock android ROM

Im giving my HTC Desire 610 to a family member, but want to remove everything from the phone. i have unrooted the phone, and tried to update to the newest android, but when the phone reboots, it comes up with TWRP. Is there a way to remove TWRP, and replace it with just the stock recovery, and so everything would be as if it was fresh out of the box?
Well, first, re-root it. Then download the stock recovery.img file and download flashify, install the stock recovery.img through flashify. Then, delete the supersu ask from your system apps folder and/ or your data apps using a file explorer, then in a file explorer again go to system/ xbin and delete the su file, and then you will have uninstalled twrp and root

[CLOSED][Q] How to root stock rom with system.img file after this? without flashable zip file

DELETED
recovery.img needed
nalas said:
Hello
I have a question to devs:
I have stock rom with system.img, boot.img and recovery.img files.
I want to add root access into the rom, but with kitchen I can add supersu.zip file and do flashable rom zip file for all.
The problem is with no custom recovery on my device - I can flash only via SPD flashtool so I need raw file like system.img , boot.img and recovery.img
Anybody knows how add root and compile system.img with root? so I can flash via SPD flashtool?
I tried add su , superuser.apk and busybox but not works - after reboot I opened supersu app and had binary install error .
PLS Help.
Regards
nalas

I cant find my phone's recovery.img on the stock firmware zip

I want to root my redmi6a but it has no boot ramdisk so I'll have to root it via recovery.img but i can't seem to find it on the stock firmware zip any help would be appreciated thanks!
To root Android you neither have to fiddle around with phone's boot.img nor with phone's recovery.img. Rooting Android simply is adding a binary called su to Android's filesystem and make it executable. This can get achieved by means of ADB.
