    I tried using twrp-3.2.2-0-tb_x704l.img on my Lenovo Tab 4 10 Plus ZA2T TB-X704V, but it did not work. My tablet just booted back up normally. Maybe this would work on a TB-X704L, but it does not work on a TB-X704V.

    Looks like it did not boot into recovery at all.

    @paul_nickerson Can you boot into recovery and see what image is flashed into the recovery partition and let me know ?
