How to Install TWRP on Pixel 4 XL?

Installing TWRP on the phone requires an unlock bootloader. So, I have divided this whole guide into two parts as below:

  1. Bootloader Unlock
  2. Flashing the TWRP

Unlocking the Bootloader

Flashing or Booting the TWRP

  1. Download the TWRP recovery for Pixel 4 XL.
  2. Download and Install the ADB and Fastboot utilities.
  3. Then connect the phone to the PC using a USB cable.
    [su_note note_color=”#D7E3F4″ text_color=”#728095″ radius=”3″ class=”” id=””]- On your phone, if you see such as “Allow USB debugging” then just tap on OK to proceed.[/su_note]
  4. On the computer, open a command prompt (on Windows) or terminal (on Linux or macOS) window, and execute the below command to restart your phone into fastboot mode or bootloader mode:
    adb reboot bootloader[su_note note_color=”#D7E3F4″ text_color=”#728095″ radius=”3″ class=”” id=””]- You can also enter into fastboot or bootloader mode by turning off the phone and then pressing the Power button + Volume Down button.[/su_note]
  5. As this is an A-only device, the TWRP needs to be flashed on the recovery partition. So, execute one of the following command as per the requirement:
    Execute below command to flash the TWRP permanently:
    fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.4.x-xx.img
    (or)
    Execute below command to boot the TWRP temporarily:
    fastboot boot recovery twrp-3.4.x-xx.img[su_note note_color=”#D7E3F4″ text_color=”#728095″ radius=”3″ class=”” id=””]While executing this command make sure to replace the twrp-3.4.x-xx.img with the actual filename of the TWRP.[/su_note]
  6. Wait for the fastboot command to finish installing the TWRP on Pixel 4 XL.
