Yep. Been through that and I know exactly what you're going through. Just make sure you press the Volume up + power button immediately after flashing it with TWRP and it will take you to a place that has 3 options then select recovery which will take you to TWRP. Note that of you don't use the TWRP recovery to either create a phone backup or root your phone, it will be replaced again so just back up your ROM with it to make the installation permanent and you might need about 5.5GB free space for the backup. Goodluck and Happy New
Year in advance.

Tried this man but it takes me to another form of recovery which is not twrp.. But I will do it again cos am now on the latest firmware. Thanks I appreciate

Update: I have flashed it again and its working now.. Thanks man

The move to sdcard option that's highly needed. Font customization.

D latest firmware has quite a number of bugs(I think)..The Camera's Autofocus is kinda poor resulting to a blur image. I doubt if it supports flash charge. It heats up while being charged(might be my connection). I'm bout to downgrade to 6057.
