TWRP: Team Win Recovery Project

The touch-driven custom recovery that replaced a generation of stock recovery menus — flash packages, full backups, and complete partition control.

What is TWRP?

Team Win Recovery Project is an open-source custom recovery maintained by Team Win. A recovery is a small bootable environment that lives apart from Android itself: the stock one can apply system updates and factory-reset the phone. TWRP replaces it with a touch-driven environment that can flash ZIP packages, create and restore full partition backups (Nandroid), and mount, format, or wipe individual partitions.

Builds are device-specific

TWRP is built per device model, and only a build made for your exact model is safe to use — the official site's Devices section lists every supported model. Installing a custom recovery also generally requires an unlocked bootloader, which factory-resets the device on most phones.

Our free browser-based scan identifies your exact device model and bootloader state over USB — the two facts that decide whether a TWRP build exists for you and what unlocking would involve.
