Have a stock Nexus 4.
Will be unlocking it and installing some ROM.

What is the difference between this and the official TWRP version?
Is this version of TWRP better than the official twrp-3.2.3-0-mako?

Thank you.

Please, read OP post again. Our recovery has F2FS support for /data & /cache. EFS/Persist backup support, that means you can backup your IMEI/WIFI + BT Mac address stuff. And compare teamwin device tree and ours, I'm sure that you will be impressed

So should I format all partitions to f2fs and then install LOS? Is that advisable or should I just change filesystem for cache and data?

Edit 1 : btw Great recovery . I had to give it more than 2 tries though at first it got stuck in a bootloop of never entering the recovery page. then i flashed stock and tried again that time it couldn't format and twrp never got proceeded. did a stock flash again and the third time it worked fine.

Edit 2 : So checked the fstab of mako on LOS and it seems f2fs is only supported for /cache and /data. So only those two partitions need to be changed to f2fs format. Am I concluding it correctly?

Thank you @sudokamikaze

About EDIT 1:
First of all I'm sorry about that, I will find why and which thing causing this.

I had something like that on friend's phone. But worked just fine after re-entering.

If rom which you decided to use supports f2fs - feel free to use that. Leave system as is

Thank you, had no issues flashing and entering recovery and doing a full backup including EFS and Persist.

Downloading stalled?

Hi. Newb here, been trying to search for an answer, but not sure what it is I'm needing to search for?
Issue is phone is unlocked and am in bootloader mode, and am trying to download above twrp but after entering the commands into my computer terminal, the computer terminal says " sending," and the phone says "downloading," but nothing is happening. Tried this a few times, and have actually left it for an hour, but no download?
Am I missing a step here? Followed the posted instructions.

Thanks for your patience.

Hmm, have you tried to switch USB cable or port or both? and what about official TWRP, same error?

You can try:
HTML:
fastboot erase recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img # CHANGE HERE NAME OF FILE

I currently am on the official 3.1.xx TWRP version, can i just flash this as a zip from the current recovery? will that just replace the old one with this one, or do I need to first flash stock recovery?

    You can use following methods:
    1. Use app flasher like Flashfire or something like that
    2. Use PC to write recovery (better variant)
    PC method instructions are in OP post.
