  1. Download SuperSu.Zip (Do not unzip it) this supersu.zip file doesnt exist please upload a new file and update directory

    1. again go to fastboot mode and again flash twrp.img after press volume up and hit command “fastboot reboot” after that directly go to wipe you can format data.

  2. If I do not format or wipe data, will there be any problem? I dont want to wipe because each app has to be installed again separately. That is so much pain.
    And if wipe/format is mandatory, then please mention to take backup beforehand. I have unlocked bootloader and was going to go through the steps, then I saw the wipe/format section. As I do not have any backup and do not want to install all apps again, I did not continue.
