Installing TWRP Recovery
Download the Official TWRP App from the Play Market. Download, install and launch the application..
At the first start, you need to give consent to future manipulations, as well as consent to granting the Superuser rights to the application. Check the checkboxes and press the 'OK' button.
On the next screen, select 'TWRP FLASH' and give the application root rights.
On the main screen of the application, click on the 'Select Device' drop-down list, and select your phone model.
After selecting a device, the program redirects the user to a web page to download the corresponding image file of the modified recovery environment. Download the suggested *.img file.
After downloading the image file, go to the main screen of the Official TWRP App and press the 'Select a file to flash' button. Then we tell the program the path where the file loaded in the previous step is located.
Press the 'FLASH TO RECOVERY' button and confirm that you are ready to start the procedure - press 'OK' in the question window.
The recording process is very fast, and upon completion, the message 'Flash Completed Succsessfuly!' appears. Click 'OK'. The TWRP installation procedure can be considered complete.
Copy the firmware and other necessary files to the SD card.
Insert a memory card into the device.
To reboot into recovery, you need to use a special item in the Official TWRP App menu, accessible by pressing the button with three stripes in the upper left corner of the main screen of the application. Open the menu and select the 'Reboot' item, and then click on the 'REBOOT RECOVERY' button.
Firmware via TWRP
Before flashing, it is recommended to clear the 'Cache' and 'Data' sections. This will delete all user data from the device, but avoid a wide range of software errors and other problems. You must press 'WIPE' on the main screen.
Now you can start flashing. Press the 'Install' button.
The file selection screen appears. At the very top is the 'Storage' button, select the location where the firmware file is located.
Select the location where the files were copied. Press the OK button.
Find the file we need and click on it. A screen opens with a warning about possible negative consequences, as well as the item 'Zip signature verification'. This item should be checked by placing a cross in the check-box, which will avoid using damaged files when writing to the phone's memory sections.
The procedure for writing files to the phone's memory will begin, accompanied by logging and filling in the progress bar.
After completing the installation procedure, a 'Successful' message appears on the screen.
