    Hi abdul, I remember these TWRP files being .zip and I would normally run them directly from the SD card without actually flashing over the stock recovery but, it seems now they are .img files. is there a way I can run them from the sd card like I did with previously? your help is appriciated

      I tried it right now to. Just rename it in recovery.img and it will start from extSd. At least in my x8-h plus it's working without any problems

        abdul_pt Seems like links for the Mini MX TWRP versions are down. Can you correct the links please? Thanks in advance.

          You can use the 'dd' command from terminal window.
          Like 'dd if=/dev/block/recovery of=/sdcard/recovery.IMG'
          This if your recovery partition is named recovery, some devices the name is mmcblk#p# where # is a number.
          This command will make a copy of the entire recovery partition so the size will be different.
          if [ $up.post.type = $type.two.lazy.to_use_google ] || [ $up.post.type = $type.silly_question ];
          then mv $user.contact.up.post /.trash; set response($response.type = ignore);
          $user.up.post.ignore_in_future = true; fi;

            When I start the back up I get this
            E: find file opening error sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight

            why do i even get this error? can you clarify this for me?

            Thank you.
            That's a warning message stating that TV box doesn't have a LCD backlight.
            TWRP supports changing brightness on devices that have that functionality.
            if [ $up.post.type = $type.two.lazy.to_use_google ] || [ $up.post.type = $type.silly_question ];
            then mv $user.contact.up.post /.trash; set response($response.type = ignore);
            $user.up.post.ignore_in_future = true; fi;

              I stopped releasing zip since there's a lot of devices and almost all supports booting recovery from ExternalSD like HirogenX said.
              if [ $up.post.type = $type.two.lazy.to_use_google ] || [ $up.post.type = $type.silly_question ];

                Hi, usb keyboard not working in TWRP 2.8.7.0 MXQ on CS918G PLUS device. Only ctr-alt-del combination reboots box. Arrow keys work in stock recovery. What can I do to make it work?

                  It's working if you can reboot with key combination.
                  TWRP on supports mouse to select options, keyboard only works to type.
                  if [ $up.post.type = $type.two.lazy.to_use_google ] || [ $up.post.type = $type.silly_question ];
                  then mv $user.contact.up.post /.trash; set response($response.type = ignore);
                  $user.up.post.ignore_in_future = true; fi;

                    The link to the TWRP Beelink Mini does not work. Was wondering if the link will be restored? Tried other versions but none work. Thank you in advance.

                      Thank you I just went with the external SD option it seems to be working well, I've not had to restore but backup was successful, other than the errors myself and a couple of others posted a few days ago.
                      It was something along the lines of couldn't find boot and I believe uboot was the other.

                            What device and what image are you using ?

                            Send me recovery.log and the output of the command 'ls -l -R /dev/block' and 'cat /proc/partitions'.
                            And also stock recovery image.

                              Read OP for guide.
                              Try only external SDcard and check witch one works for you
