Yhu can try but bootloader must ne unlock to flash twrp...Hi there! Is there any way to load the phone into TWRP recovery without flashing it? I`m using Android 7.1.1 firmware but it would be great to boot into recovery and make a bakup. Is it possible?
Yhu can try but bootloader must ne unlock to flash twrp...
To enter download mode, switch of the phone, connect usb to phone, press volume down button and connect tha usb to PC, it will enter download mode. Den flash twrp!!!
I know how to flash the phone. I said that I`m using 7.1.1 FW but TWRP is 8.1 boot based. May be you meant to flash this TWRP, make backup and then flash the native boot back to make the phone bootable as usual? There is some reason here. I`ll try. Thanks.
gives error saying size too large when i use flash recovery command
and says partition table doesnt exist when i used boot_a command, what do i do please
am using nokia n8
andriod v6
kernel version 3.10.72
security patched leve; 2016-06-01
I have a boot.img which has twrp inside also the wifi driver is working. If you dare to flash it as your boot partition in fastboot then ask, its 50.2Mb
*IT IS FOR UNLOCKED BOOTLOADERS ONLY*
Voila ..
Alas TWRP is working on Nokia 8 NB1 based on v4.88B kernel. Wifi and Magisk root both are working on my mobile. Please and report if it is working for you as well.

If working well, also flash boot_a partition as well.

WARNING: Don't change boot slot using TWRP . I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot_a TWRP_NB1_boot_v2.img
fastboot reboot
This time not only root, u are gonna get custom kernel with few CPU governor and IO Scheduler with fully working TWRP with decryption support. So, you can take nanodroid backup or can flash anything - even custom ROMThanks but I already got my phone rooted thanks to your pre rooted boot image

Wow, you are a genius! So glad to see twrp on our Nokia 8 xD but with encrypted /system. Does it mean nandroid backup is not possible at the moment? Also, with your magisk patched kernel, can i flash over or do i need to first flash twrp then reroot with your method?
