Hi, I am using V15 pro/ vivo 1818.
Q 1. Can I install any custom recovery like TWRP/CWM/Philz recovery in my device without PC?

Q 2. If I install any of the above. Will it erase my internal storage/ data?

i also have UFI Box service tool.. but this motherboard version is different from the other board that has alreadyba working ISP Pinout for Jtag.. so ,. my best hope is through firehose mode flashing. but the firmware that i have downloaded has a firehose inside (i think that is 3 ,. 1 is DDr , 2. Lite and last IDK i forgot the name) but all of them is not working.. so i guess that is for the lower ram version,.

Battery backup is poor. Is there a way to improve? I'm putting in low battery mode to make it last longer.
Turn on the dark mode and if possible contact the service center and telk them to install the global varient software in the phone as when I purchased it new my phone was automatically turning off and after they set up global software the phone is now working like magic.
