The '''TeamWin Recovery Project''' (short '''TWRP''') is an alternative, manufacturer-independant [[Recovery | The '''TeamWin Recovery Project''' (short '''TWRP''') is an alternative, manufacturer-independant [[Recovery]] systems<ref>http://teamw.in/project/twrp2</ref> for several [[Android]] devices. It is based on the [[AOSP]]-Android-Recovery, extended with several features and it's own user interface. The Recovery is fully touchscreen-based and can not be controlled using the volume keys (up and down) as well as not with the power key to select menu entries. | ||
In difference to the ClockWorkMod, TWRP provides a built-in file manager, different themes as well as other advanced options for backup, wipe and restore (e.g only backup or restore some partitions, bypass the MD5-checksum creation or choose an own name for a data set like backups). The installation of zip files provides a way of adding multiple zip files (up to 10) in a so called Batch-Job, which are processed one after one. | In difference to the ClockWorkMod, TWRP provides a built-in file manager, different themes as well as other advanced options for backup, wipe and restore (e.g only backup or restore some partitions, bypass the MD5-checksum creation or choose an own name for a data set like backups).

To use the TeamWin-Recovery, it has to be installed on the device. This is done with the fastboot command "flash". It's required, that the [[USB driver]] for the device is installed correctly and that the [[fastboot.exe]] is present, which is, e.g., shipped with the [[Android SDK]], but can also be installed standalone. The recovery itself can be retrieved/downaloded as an image file (*.img). | To use the TeamWin-Recovery, it has to be installed on the device. This is done with the fastboot command "flash".

Afterwards, a command line window is opened <nowiki>[WINDOWS] + [R] -> "cmd" -> [RETURN]</nowiki>) and, within this window, navigated to the directory, where the fastboot.exe is saved in (you can use the windows command to navigate through directories in the command line, followed by the directory path, e.g.: ''cd C:\android\fastboot''). | Afterwards, a command line window is opened <nowiki>[WINDOWS] + [R] -> "cmd" -> [RETURN]</nowiki>) and, within this window, navigated to the directory, where the fastboot.exe is saved in (you can use the windows command to navigate through directories in the command line, followed by the directory path, e.g.: ''cd C:\android\fastboot''). | ||
