How to Install TWRP Recovery on Sprint S6 G920P 5.1.1 OF7 update

With the Android 5.1.1 update, TWRP recovery was broken for all Galaxy S6 devices world over. Developers are now slowly fixing things up to get TWRP to work again on Galaxy S6 and the latest working build is coming for the Sprint S6 G920P.

A working TWRP recovery image is now finally available for the Sprint Galaxy S6 G920P running on OF7 Android 5.1.1 update. It isn’t official yet on the TWRP site but users over at XDA are reporting it be working fine for the device. So we guess it’s safe to use. Grab the recovery file from the download links below and easily flash using Odin.
