Are you tired of scrolling through huge lists of files in ClockworkMod with the volume rocker?

Don't you wish there was a recovery with a graphical interface and controlled using the touchscreen?

Team Win Recovery is just that!

Built by TeamWin from the ground up based on AOSP recovery, it has a themeable GUI with touch interface, file manager, keyboard, terminal emulator and much much more...

NEW VERSION 2.3.2.1!

Note: A few devices experience random reboots/shutdowns in recovery with the latest version. If this is the case for you, use version 2.2.1 which is completely stable.

Features

Graphical touchscreen interface with buttons and drag-to-scroll!

Compressed backups that can save you up to 50% disk space

Ability to choose which partitions to back up and which to restore

Custom names for backups, rename and delete backups inside recovery

Integrated Terminal Emulator

Install queues allow you to install multiple zips in one go (e.g. CM9 zip together with gapps zip)

Easy one-button cache & dalvik cache clearing after an installation

Recovery settings are saved to the sdcard and persist through reboots

File Manager that allows you to move, copy, delete and rename files and change their permissions

Battery percentage indicator, charging indicator and clock (set your timezone in settings!)

Reboot into download mode (bootloader)

ADB support

Sideloading for automated ROM install: http://teamw.in/ADBSideload

Download

2.3.2.1 as installable zip

Install by copying the zip file to your sdcard, booting into recovery (VolumeUp+Power) and then using "install zip from sdcard" ("apply update form sdcard" on stock recovery) to install it.

2.3.2.1 as flashable image file

Flash using broodplank's Quickflasher. Connect phone via USB, start sgsflasher_x86.exe, activate "Flash a new Recovery", select the twrp2.2.1-recovery.img and press "Start Now".

Please pay particular attention to this:

FAQ

I installed this but my phone keeps booting into recovery over and over again.

Can I use TWRP to restore my CWM backups?

Where is my external SD card?

What is the size vs speed tradeoff for compressed backups?

Can I use this to flash CyanogenMod9?

Can I use this to flash XYZ ROM?

The clock shows the wrong time!

My .zip file won't install!

Can I mount my SD cards on my PC in recovery?

How can I restore single apps (and/or their data) from a TWRP backup?

I have tried to test all recovery features and they all seem to work. I successfully flashed several different ROMs and performed backups and restores. However, there could still be bugs lurking somewhere - if you find one please report it!

Disclaimer

Do not install this if you don't know what you are doing. Incorrect flashing of a recovery can lead to a hard brick! Bugs in the recovery could result in data loss so always have a backup! I am in no way responsible for anything you do to your phone and offer no guarantees.

For Developers

TWRP has an optional companion app called GooManager. It offers a frontend for the goo.im archive which hosts ROMs and the gapps. Unlike CWM and ROM Manager, it is completely free, developers can upload their ROMs to goo.im and users can easily flash them with GooManager. It would be awesome if developers started uploading their ROMs there!

To take screenshots inside the running recovery, use adb to dump the framebuffer and then use ffmpeg to convert the raw image to a jpeg like this:
