Official TWRP App

Mar 11, 2017

Official TWRP App

The official TWRP app is the first and only first-party app developed by Team Win for TWRP. Please bear with us as we work to fix any bugs and build out the features. The initial version of the app does not support flashing on the Pixel due to the Pixel's A/B partition layout. In addition, the app may not support finding and flashing images from external storage locations. We are working hard to improve these items and bring you more new features.

Download Links:

We recommend downloading the app from the Play Store.

If you do not have Play Store access, you may download the Official TWRP App here: https://dl.twrp.me/twrpapp/

How do I use the app?

When you first open the app, you will be greeted by a few options. First, you will need to agree not to hold us responsible for anything that happens to your device while using the app. You may also grant the app root permissions. The app will work without root, but some functionality like image flashing will be disabled. Lastly, you can opt into enabling InsightCore (more on this feature later).

Once you have passed this initial screen, you will be greeted with the app home screen where you can choose TWRP FLASH or NETWORK STATISTICS (more on the network statistics later). On the TWRP FLASH screen you will need to select a device. Once you have selected a device, the app will periodically check for new TWRP versions for the device that you have selected. The default interval is once per day, but you can tap on the settings icon in the upper-right to change the interval or disable the update check entirely.

If you enabled root access, you will see options for selecting an image and buttons for flashing the selected image to boot or recovery. Note that you should flash TWRP images to recovery. The boot image flashing is for flashing full boot images (not just kernel zImages) and should not be used for flashing TWRP.

Update 1/4/2017

TWRP 3.1.0-1 MM/NN build released.

Current status: BETA

Features:

MTP working

ADB working

SEANDROID warning fix

TWRP and Kernel built from source

System image backup

F2FS support >> To be added

Twrp app support

Bugs:

Reboot to recovery loop when using reboot utilities. Use hardkeys combo only to boot to recovery POWER + HOME + VOL UP

If you get stuck in a recovery loop reflash TWRP with auto-reboot enabled.

You flash this at your own risk. Please ensure you have the stock ROM to hand downloaded from SAMMOBILE in case of problems. This will trip the knox counter.

Instructions:

Flash with ODIN 3.10.7 in the AP slot.

Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode.

Uncheck Auto reboot.

Load the respective file below into the AP slot and hit start.

After flashing and ODIN reports PASS immediately reboot to recovery by holding POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN.

As soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding POWER + HOME.

You should now see TWRP recovery.

NOTE: ON SOME ANDROID 5.1.1/6.0/7.0 DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:

Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking

AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
