Will this recovery work on lollipop rom u have made? If do, how?
1. Using flashtool, rename twrp img to recovery.img, put in rom folder, and flash it. Or
2. Unlock bootloader?

Lollipop TWRP uploaded; OP updated

It has been a while since the last post. The aroma installer and aroma file manager seems not working. I opened opengapps aroma installer and it stuck at the start. The only way is to reboot. I'm using lollipop twrp wwe. Also, @Gibz97, can you update the base to 3.0.0?

The version of aroma installer before the latest one works on our TWRP.
I already have the base for TWRP version 3.0.0-0. I will work on it when I get the time

hi guys,
i've got hold of an htc desire 820 Dual SIM phone (India).
i'm not familiar with 'fiddling with' htc phones.
please help me root and install twrp recovery on this phone.
@Gibz97, @Vivacity, how do i get stock recovery out of this phone?

btw, what other name is this phone known by - like D820s / D820ys / D820ts / D820us?
p.s.: if this is not the right thread, please point me to the right one. thanks.
