Along the same lines, it is proving to be quite an active player in the custom development domain. Be it for flashing custom ROMs or gaining administrative access by rooting your device via Magisk, the possibilities stand endless. Likewise, once your device stands rooted, you will be in a position to flash tons of mods and custom binary which will add more to the already impressive feature set. But before you could try out any of these tweaks, you will need to have a working custom recovery installed. And in this guide, we will help you with just that. Given here are the detailed instruction steps to install the TWRP Recovery onto your Realme GT NEO 2. Follow along.
Benefits and Risks of Installing TWRP on Realme GT NEO 2
Once you flash a custom recovery like TWRP, you will be in a position to flash ZIP and IMG files. So this automatically checkmarks all the custom ROMs, Mods, and even the Magisk ZIP for obtaining root. And once you obtained root, you will be able to flash Magisk Modules, Xposed Framework, and Substratum Themes. Along the same lines, you could also take a backup of all the partitions on your device using its Nandroid Backup feature. However, this is just one side of the story.
The TWRP flashing process requires an unlocked bootloader. Doing so will wipe off all the data and could nullify the warranty as well. Likewise, SafetyNet will also be triggered which will result in the inability to use banking apps [FIX: how to pass SafetyNet]. Likewise, Netflix WideVine L1 will be degraded to L3, hence Full HD resolution might not be supported. If all this is well and good, then let’s get started with the steps to install TWRP Recovery on your Realme GT NEO 2.
