How to flash?

Despite being A/B, it has dedicated recovery partition. You can install without using the usual A/B installation process.

Now, assuming you already have unlocked bootloader, your PC has adb/fastboot installed, and platform tools. Let's begin.

Note: Flash at your own risk.

  1. Download the .img file from the release page.
  2. Place the image file inside platform tools folder in your PC.
  3. Now, open CMD inside platform tools folder.
  4. Boot your device in bootloader/fastboot mode.
  5. Type in CMD: fastboot flash recovery name-of-twrp.img. It'll flash in current active slot.
    • If you want to flash it in specific slot, add slot suffix _a or _b:
      • fastboot flash recovery_a name-of-twrp.img
      • fastboot flash recovery_b name-of-twrp.img
  6. After flashing is done, type: fastboot reboot recovery.
  7. Enjoy your new custom recovery—PBRP.
