Yes, TWRP
here's what u do, download the file provided above, then unzip the file.. u get .tar.md5 file, also unzip and extract the recovery.img there, then convert the recovery.img to recovery.tar, u can use 7-Zip or winrar to add to achieve when converting. then flash the recovery.tar on your device via recovery mode..

Mr. OP nice work you're doing here.... But you should try and ask Samsung,lg,sony,users and the likes about their version before giving them a custom rom cos they can easily get their device hard bricked by flashing roms that isn't meant for the device they are using.
