Recovery images
AXP.OS comes with a restricted and limited recovery which ensures no one can tamper with your device (as far as possible - as the bootloader cannot be locked on every device).
The recommended way to install AXP.OS when you come from any OS including STOCK and no TWRP image exists.
That being said there is one exception to this rule: If there is a factory image available (e.g. any Google Pixel device) it is recommended to flash via fastboot (see the installation guide for your device!).

- Samsung J5 2017 (download)
- Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact (download)
Sometimes it is required to boot into a more advanced recovery and while not supported you can check my own TWRP builds or the latest official ones:
(often older and well - official)

- Oneplus 6T (download)
- Oneplus 7T (download)

(often newer, more features, often more bugfixes - but unofficial)

fastboot boot twrp.img
or if that fails:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot-recovery # or use the key combo for your device
AXP.OS comes with its own recovery so if you flash a custom recovery it gets overwritten on next update! Even worse if you own a device which does not have a dedicated recovery partition (e.g. the OnePlus 6T) flashing TWRP will remove Magisk and needs to be manually re-flashed afterwards, so causing just trouble at the end.
