What's TWRP?
Oh come on, you know what it is - don't try to fool me!
In case you're serious, though...
Team Win Recovery Project is a custom recovery for Android devices.
It allows you to back up and restore your data, flash custom ROMs to your device, repair broken file systems, root your device and more.
Read more about TWRP here: https://twrp.me/about/
How do I flash and set it up correctly?
Please notice that the following guide is meant for full stock devices, if you've already rooted your device you can skip it and flash directly the recovery without any extra steps.
Before starting, make sure to backup all your data and important files stored in your phone, since this procedure will format your data partition.
Download Odin3, Samsung's Android USB Drivers, the latest TWRP's tar and a disabled vbmeta image.
Make sure your phone's bootloader is unlocked, follow the guide below in case it isn't:
Spoiler: Unlock the bootloader
Open the Settings app, enter Developer Options and enable OEM unlocking (If you don't see Developer Options, enter into About phone>Software info and tap "Build number" 10 times to show it).
Enter Download Mode: to do so power off your device, connect it to a computer via an USB cable and hold both volume up and volume down buttons.
Long press volume up to unlock the bootloader. This will wipe your data and your phone will automatically reboot.
Go through the initial setup. Skip through all the steps since data will be wiped again later. Make sure to connect the device to Internet during the setup.
Enter Developer Options and check that the OEM unlocking option exists and is grayed out. This means our bootloader is unlocked and your phone has no KnoxGuard lock set.
Connect your phone to your PC and boot in Download Mode (power off your device and hold both volume up and volume down buttons).
Open Odin3, select the TWRP tar by clicking the "AP" button and the patched vbmeta tar by clicking "USERDATA", then press the Start button.
Reboot your phone in recovery mode: while it still plugged in your PC, hold both the power and volume up buttons.
Once TWRP has booted you need to format again your data partition in order to be able to boot in system again. To do so touch Wipe>Format Data and follow the instructions in screen.
Bugs:
Decryption will only work if no password/PIN/pattern is set in Android.

Red Wolf Recovery is custom recovery based on TWRP source code however some things are working here slightly different then you might expected. The main objective of this project is to provide stable recovery with features which you have never seen before in a recovery and which have not been accepted for adding to the official source code of TWRP. This recovery is also first recovery on the world with password protection.​
Based on TWRP version: 3.2.1
For device: Harpia
Authors build: Aki
Developers: ATG Droid
Thanks: Special Thanks to squid2 for his source, .z31s1g (for the base of his theme), osm0sis (for his bootimage binaries), etc.

- MTP isn't starting until user enter correct password
- Deactivated support of the custom themes
Points to be noted down:
Code:
[COLOR="red"]- get out of here if you are pirating apps. this recovery is not for you[/COLOR]
- always up-to-date with the latest TWRP changes

-added fstab, usb init script from ashyx's recovery
Be aware of bootloader bug:
Once you entered recovery there is no way to reboot device in normal/download mode except from recovery itself. Which is problematic if it's not operating correctly.
Ideas how to get out of it in case you stuck in broken recovery:
1. Use adb (provided that it works)
Code:
adb reboot
2. Connect keyboard via OTG-adapted and press Alt + SysRq + O to power off device (saved my device).
3. Disconnect battery or let it die while burning bootloader splash into the screen.
4. Use USB Jig to enter download/EDL mode (might be ignored by bootloader just like key-combo).
Thanks!

i omitted some partitions from fstab (and missed other) because i thought that restoring modem/apnhlos from old binary may soft-brick device. But after some testing it appears that it's only checked in download mode. I will add those partitions back in next release.

Do you need to use the forced encryption disabler?
I don't really care about the "full functionality" in TWRP, but I want to watch L1 widevine content with my rooted A605FN, and that isn't possible if the /data partition was formated.
But the (old?) "SM-A605-keymaster-fix-by-Not_Sure.zip" needs /data access, so I guess the forced encryption disabler is needed for that fix?
And what is the difference between the "fixed full-disk encryption (msm keystore implementation)" in this TWRP Mod and the (old?) "SM-A605-keymaster-fix-by-Not_Sure.zip"? Is there even any?
Last time i tried TWRP and root and there is a bug in lock screen system. is this version have that problem too?
help
Can we use this twrp for my A6+ android 10? will it work if i use it?

It doesn't work not because /data was formatted, but because boot partition was changed which breaks chain of trust.
"fixed full-disk encryption (msm keystore implementation)" means that TWRP can decrypt /data but only when it was encrypted with "SM-A605-keymaster-fix-by-Not_Sure.zip" previously applied. If you have non-rooted stock ROM you still have to format /data first.

It's not TWRP that breaks lock-screen. This should fix it.

Thanks been waiting to try this., as I was unable to restore a stock backup using twrp 3.1.1 prior.
However, I am still facing error 255 when trying to restore data after I make a backup in orangefox,
and when I try to restore system, orange states system is in read only mode.
Anyone able to restore a backup using orange?
Awesome, thank you. Be flashing real soon
Thank you. Works great!
Haha! I think I've heard of this one before. It just so happens that my hard drive has crashed and I just made my 256 gig SD as internal so I have lost everything and it just so happens to TWRP server is down today so poof I'm magically going to try this
You're a wizard @Electimon ! Much thanks!
Super cute!
danny8 likes it!
Is the encryption key issue likely to change in the near future? It does work on op6t. Although it's os dependent. So you need different recovery when you go from android 9 to 10. Not sure how likely g7 power is to get official a10. I always thought Moto was pretty forth coming with system source code. Do I need to erase data and maybe use dm-verity from magisk to get data backup working? Or do I just stick with migrate app for now?
awesome recovery works great!! thanks
Has anyone gotten OF backup to work? I look forward to trying it again(feature rich is understatement) but cannot do much flashing as I have only my daily driver & need it to be recoverable(or transferred to new H/W) quickly. It's a good problem, hopefully work will afford me a new tester to play with if I can ever get out of the Covid Pit of Debt.
Off-topic, sorta, maybe related(?):
In TWRP, my 255 error was apparently not be an encryption issue. I found a clue on stack exchange: I saved & opened my log after a failed data backup in TWRP, searched the log for 'error' and located the last folder(or file) that errored out... 4th or 5th from last 'error' result in the log. In TWRP, I mounted 'system', opened File Manager and drilled to the troublesome folder, deleted it and immediately re-ran the backup successfully. I have since restored a backup successfully, with no ill effect.
*Before the 1st delete, I booted into the OS and used root file manager to find the folder was empty.
Edit: way too many grammatical & syntax errors. I am going to take a nap.
Thanks for the efforts!! But what is the diff between TWRP vs Orange Fox?

Your right. I wasnt able to install Ofox, its too big for the recovery partition for some reason. I tried both the installler and installing via fastboot. Im currently running CrDroid11 with expanded system partition.

I can confirm, doesn't matter how you try to install it or boot it up or if your device has an increased system partition or not, the current recovery image is too big for the recovery partition to be installed.

This will not help. -S just splits the flashable image into chunks. That flag will not change the size of recovery partition. You should decrease the size of your OrangeFox-Unofficial-hammerhead.img to fit the size of hammerhead's recovery partition (23068672 byes)
Have u ever tested this recovery on hammerhead? I guess no, because you can't even flash it ...

TWRP - 3.5.2
--Your warranty is now void--
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.
Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. It's a full touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.
TWRP built for the Blu Vivo 8L, Gionee A1 Lite and clones. It should work fine, but using it is a try at your own risk procedure. Your bootloader must be unlocked to use this recovery. Fastboot mode or SP Flash Tool is used to flash or boot this recovery.
TAKE A BACKUP OF IMPORTANT DATA!
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE:
USING ADB FASTBOOT:​
Turn on developer mode and allow bootloader to be unlocked.​
Reboot to recovery by turning off the phone and pressing Power button + Volume Up​
Select reboot to bootloader.​
It it show as fastboot mode on screen.​
Now connect phone to PC through USB. (make sure adb and required drivers are installed!)​
Now open a terminal and type this command [B]fastboot flash recovery twrp.img[/B]​
Now flash patched boot.img fastboot flash boot patched.img (without this phone will not boot up!)​
Shut down your phone.adb shell reboot -p​
Go to recovery, again Power + Volume Up.​
Voila! You have a custom recovery! ​
NOTE: OPEN THE TERMINAL WHERE THE TWRP AND PATCHED IMG FILES ARE LOCATED!
ALTERNATE METHOD (RECOMMENDED BY ME)
USING SP FLASH TOOL​
Download and open SP Flash tools​
Select the MT6753 scatter.txt (Download link below)​
Select recovery and boot to be flashed.​
Select the appropriate .img files. (twrp.img for recovery and boot.img for patched.img for boot)​
Shut down your phone and hit the download button! Wait for the 'Download ok' screen.​
Reboot to recovery by pressing Power button + Volume Up​
A FEW NOTES:
>>Internal memory may be shown as 0mb in TWRP. Don't panic. Go to wipe and Format data. Now sideload Zackptg5's force encrypt disabler
[Deprecated] Universal DM-Verity, ForceEncrypt, Disk Quota Disabler [11/2/2020]
Hi all! For the past couple of months, I've been looking into making a more universal solution to disable dm-verity and forceencrypt. Needing to take different zips, modify them for different devices, and then cross your fingers when you switch...
forum.xda-developers.com
All instructions in the above thread. If the above zip is not flashed, again your phone will be encrypted. On TWRP booting for the first time a password will be asked, just click cancel!
>>After completing all the steps, upon rebooting your phone, you may also install Magisk v23 apk to root your phone.
DOWNLOAD LINKS:

>> twrp.img

This custom recovery is also applicable to Qmobile Noir A1 Lite among other clones.
