Hello Akash,
I’m facing an issue with the installation of TWRP recovery. I did as you’ve stated in this article but to no avail, even after installing TWRP, I somehow cant boot into recovery mode. When I try it, it gets into fastboot mode each time. I dont know what else to do. I request for your help!
I have my bootloader open and I also encounter a error message most of the times when I try to boot, its that “your device is corrupt. it cannot be trusted and may not work properly”
device Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1
Thank You!
