Download TWRP Recovery by Finless Bob for Tronsmart Draco
TWRP Recovery by Finless Bob for the Tronsmart Draco Meta Allwinner A80
This TWRP can be installed on the stock Draco ROM because it is rooted.
It will also install on my Finless ROM.
This TWRP may also work on other All Winner A80 devices.
It's only been tested on the Tronsmart Draco.
Special thanks to FreakTab developer Abdul_pt for making this recovery.
He did it in the dark without having this device. Thanks Abdul!
But I did have to fix two things when I tested. I fixed:
Mount for External_SD and USB Memory sticks. Those now work.
Now I also added another feature:
Back up, Restore, Wipe "All NAND" partition.
What is this you ask?
On this box the internal SD (also called Internal Storage) is mounted in /data/media/0
Thus you cannot back up internal SD. There was no option to do so.
Now backing up "All NAND" will back up both /data and internal SD.
It basically backs up ALL of the NAND Data area.
______________________________________
IMPORTANT NOTE and usage tips!
If your going to use "ALL NAND" you must unmount Data.
Go into the mounts menu and uncheck Data and check ALL NAND.
If you do not do this before a restore of All NAND you will get an error.
It backs up fine with both Data and All NAND ar mounted and checked but it will not restore if Data is mounted.
If you use All NAND, then there is no reason to also check Data during backup. All NAND backs that up as well.
If you do select All NAND and Data in the backup selection, you are wasting space. BUT you can in fact backup both.
In the wipe menu, internal SD is called Internal Storage.
Wiping Internal Storage will only erase Internal SD not all Data.
After TWRP is installed the only way to get to TWRP recovery is using the reboot APP.
My Finless ROM comes with this APP. Stock ROM does not so it is provided in this zip.
Install it and run it. Agree to superuser prompt. Click reboot recovery.
The system will reboot into TWRP.

Well because the stock recovery is basically BRAIN DEAD, I could not make a update.zip to install this.
Thus it needs to be installed this way.

1) Get from the Play Store Android Terminal Emulator.
2) Copy the file twrp.img to internal SD.
3) Run the terminal emulator APP.

6) Now type: dd if=/sdcard/twrp.img of=/dev/block/by-name/recovery
The terminal will do it's thing and should come back with no errors.
TWRP is now installed.
