Team Win Recovery Project 3.x, or twrp3 for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. Its a fully touch driven user interface no more volume rocker or power buttons to mash. The GUI is also fully XML driven and completely theme-able. You can change just about every aspect of the look and feel.

Current status

Working :
- TWRP boots
- /data decryption is working
- system and vendor partitions are mountable but you can't modify them
- You can flash magisk and modules, or custom kernel (if that's even exists since our kernel source is total mess and broken)
- Flashing stock rom.ozip works

Not working :
- USB OTG works now
- Partition formatting doesn't works (upstream)

Installation
Direct booting (fastboot boot twrp.img) is not possible, so we just have to flash it like normal
1. Disable verified boot first
Code:
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
2. Flash downloaded twrp
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
3. Reboot to recovery
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery

Download
Google Drive

I am using rmx 2061_11_A17. Will this flashing of twrp cause any bootloop or damage to the phone? I've already unlocked the bootloader

---------- Post added at 04:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

I've flashed both files successfully. But when applying 'fastboot reboot recovery' command doesn't work when I manually go to recovery, I'm entering to the normal recovery everytime.

I don't get what are you trying to say, if you already flash twrp but still got a stock recovery, then you didn't flash it properly.

Wait is fastboot reboot recovery even a valid command? Wasn't it adb reboot recovery and fastboot reboot. If you are booting into stock recovery that means twrp isn't flashed properly.

Read the first post, system/vendor is mountable but you can't modify them (which means read-only).

That's how Android 10 dynamic partition works, it'll fail if you try to mount system as read/write.
Why ? because the system and vendor partition is just a logical partition under the big volume called "super" partition. and generally, it has no reserved space at all to ensure that partitions aren't wasting space and are allocated to a minimum possible size.
https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/dynamic_partitions/implement

> So, how can I modify stuff under the /system or /vendor ?
The only way to do it is via magisk, create your own modules.
> But, how custom ROM is working on such devices like OP7 or Redmi Note 9s ?
Because it is build from the source, you'll get the whole super partition that can be flashed to the device.
> Will GApps be working too ?
Yes, overlayfs is a thing, just like how magisk works systemlessly.

If you don't like it, blame Google and buy devices that comes with Android 9.

So the steps are :
- Flash stock ROM .ozip
- Flash patched-vbmeta-v2.img
- Flash TWRP
- Flash OF_avb_patcher.zip (from TWRP)
- Done, you can also reflash Magisk if you want, or just reboot

Are they correct steps or not?

Do you think we can flash and boot A10 gsis with it despite the twrp and A10 condition currently?
Also i've read in Oneplus 8 twrp thread that the best way to backup currently is using img format, is it also true on this build?

GSI ? Idk, I'm not interested in that.

Backing up the ROM ?
You can backup super partition because both system and vendor are inside of it,
but also you have to backup the vbmeta_system and vbmeta_vendor too, I'll make an another build that can backup both vbmetas.

    Hi guys!
    I have to stop the development of my unofficial twrp build because I don't own Realme 6 Pro anymore.
    The sources (customized bootable/recovery/ and device/realme/RMX2061) for this device are still available at my GitHub page (if you want to fork it for research purposes or just looking around).

    Thanks for all the support given, and see you later :)

    Ah it sucks that twrp hurdles with A10 hasn't been solved yet. 7 months already.
    Anyway did you build it yourself @nullxception? Thanks alot!
    A/B, SaR, now Dynamic Partition, Thanks to google for adding a new layout again and again XD
