We can root our device, we can flash custom firmware, we can perform full backups and other things great.
TWRP is the strong contender of CWM recovery and so far they are both the most used recoveries on the Android realm. Some people prefer one compared the other. But we can all admit that TWRP has a better interface and its touch screen utility makes it more interesting and tempting. But of course those are just additional features.
And on this post I will try to guide you to install TWRP recovery on Android by the help of Odin. Odin is the PC based utility and it's said developed by Samsung and later on leaked for public. And now the tool is used not just for upgrade or downgrading our firmware version, it's for non official activities too like rooting and for installing custom reocveries.
With Odin we can flash the TWRP recovery file to our Android phone. Of course we will need a Windows based computer in the process. As Odin is only supporting Windows operating system.
Preconditions.
- A Windows PC and a USB cable.
- Enable USB debugging mode.
- A unlocked bootloader device.
- Backup your current data.
- Make sure you follow the guides and don't skip any steps.
Remember that all the risks that could happen during or after the process are yours to bear.
