Before proceeding with the actual tutorial first let me give you brief idea about what is TWRP
What is TWRP Recovery?
TWRP stands for “Team Win Recovery Project” and it is an open-source custom recovery image for Android Smartphones. A custom recovery image allows users to perform various tasks like flashing Custom ROMs, Creating and Restoring Backups, Wiping Data, Flashing Custom Kernels and Mods, Mounting, Managing File Systems, ADB sideload and terminal access. To use TWRP, you typically need to unlock your device’s bootloader
Please keep in mind that installing custom recoveries may void your warranty or even potentially lead to a bricked device if not used carefully. SamsungSFour.com is liable for any issues caused as a result of this tutorial.
Does installing TWRP void your warranty?
Yes.
