Installing TWRP on Google Pixel 3 XL

Disclaimer: Installing custom recovery and modifying your phone’s software can void your warranty and potentially brick your device. Proceed with caution and at your own risk.

Prerequisites

• Unlocked Bootloader: Your Pixel 3 XL must have an unlocked bootloader.
• ADB and Fastboot: Install ADB (Android Debug Bridge) and Fastboot on your computer. These tools are used to communicate with your phone in fastboot mode.
• TWRP Image: Download the latest TWRP image file specifically for the Google Pixel 3 XL from the official TWRP website.
• USB Cable: A USB cable to connect your phone to your computer.
• Enable USB Debugging: Enable USB debugging in your phone’s Developer Options.

Steps

1. Boot into Fastboot Mode:

   • Power off your Pixel 3 XL.
   • Press and hold the Power button and Volume Down button simultaneously until you see the Fastboot Mode screen.

2. Connect to Computer:

   • Connect your phone to your computer using the USB cable.

3. Open a Command Prompt/Terminal:

   • On your computer, open a command prompt or terminal window and navigate to the directory where you downloaded the TWRP image file.

4. Flash TWRP:

   • Type the following command and press Enter:

     fastboot flash recovery twrp-x.x.x-crosshatch.img 
     

     (Replace twrp-x.x.x-crosshatch.img with the actual filename of the TWRP image.)

5. Boot into TWRP:

   • While your phone is still in Fastboot Mode, use the volume buttons to navigate to “Recovery Mode” and press the Power button to select it.
   • Your phone should now boot into TWRP recovery.

6. (Optional) Root your device:

   • If you want to root your phone, you can flash a Magisk ZIP file from TWRP.

Important Notes

• First boot into TWRP: The first time you boot into TWRP after installation, it might ask you if you want to allow modifications to the system partition. It’s crucial to swipe right to allow modifications if you plan on installing custom ROMs or rooting your device. Otherwise, TWRP will remain in read-only mode.
• Keep TWRP: If you want to keep TWRP after flashing a custom ROM, you usually need to flash it again immediately after flashing the ROM. This is because some ROMs might replace TWRP with the stock recovery.
