Installing TWRP Recovery
Download the Official TWRP App from the Play Market. And install it.
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.
Going to the next screen, select the item 'TWRP FLASH' and provide the application with root-rights.
On the main screen of the application, select 'Select Device', and find 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.
Click the 'FLASH TO RECOVERY' button and confirm your choice, click '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.

Insert a memory card into the phone.
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. We open the menu, select the 'Reboot' item, and then click on the 'REBOOT RECOVERY' button. The phone will reboot into the recovery environment automatically.
