Bluboo Xtouch owners can be happy that TWRP Recovery is available to install on the smartphone for a custom recovery. Nearly everyone wants TWRP out of all custom recoveries because it comes with a built-in File Manager which can install files both from internal and external SD cards. In addition to the File Manager, the TWRP comes with the functionality to reboot to the Android operating system, back to the recovery mode and bootloader mode or download mode. Other recoveries need you to press the hardware button combination after a reboot, and that’s far more time consuming than the option TWRP gives from the menu. Other users enjoy TWRP over ClockworkMod Recovery because it automatically will clear your cache after flashing finishes. When using a different recovery, you need to clear those caches often before flashing, and you need to get it done manually.
