Greetings from Mordor!
I just want to remind everyone at this point, that we have TWRP 3.1.0-1, which is newer and supports backup of more important partitions. You should consider looking at the newer version, because newer most of the times means better.
The TWRP 3.1.0-1 Thread is located under Original Android Development.
Edit: No offense @JohnMillerDev7 Sharing your work over here is always awesome. The more support this phone gets, the better. Everyone needs to decide their self what they want to install, but they should know what is available. Your Tutorials are helpful for everyone that never installed TWRP.
You also should consider to update your links to newer SuperSU or even consider using magisk, so users will be able to pass safety net and hide root to various apps like PokemonGO or Super Mario Run.
@JohnMillerDev7:
I think it's better that you update your guide:
install custom recovery: remove method 2, you need root and generally to have root you already had custom recovery
add something like "update/re-install recovery (after root)" with flashify (a.e. from 2 to 3.0.2 ot to 3.1.0-1)
Do not worry, the tutorial will be updated later, thanks for the data, Regards! :highfive:

Everything is black. Nothing. No LEDs, no rebooting, nothing. dead.
Tried disconnecting the battery with no luck.

[GUIDE] Unlocking Bootloader/Rooting Device/Custom Recovery (TWRP)-NOOB Guide-Oreo

Hi everyone, first thing my English is not good so don’t laugh at me, I just try to share some knowledge which is easily understandable by NOOB. This guide is for NOOB with detailed steps and for those who face problem installing TWRP (i.e. no matter how hard or how many times you successfully install twrp, but always end up with stock recovery or bootloop or system freeze on boot image).
From several years I use the universal approach for rooting devices i.e.
UNLOCK BOOTLOADER  CUSTOM RECOVERY  ROOTING​But recently I encountered a problem installing TWRP in REDMI 4X, I carefully follow each and every steps successfully but always end up with stock recovery or device freeze on boot image, i tries so many times and frustrated then I discover a solution and successfully installed TWRP.
Same things happen with my OnePlus 3 A3003 and the same solution did the job, so I decided the make a comprehensive guide which easily understandable by NOOB.
In this guide my approach is:
UNLOCK BOOTLOADER  ROOTING  CUSTOM RECOVERY​
Prerequisite:
• Install adb command line tool. Download it from here https://mega.nz/#!zMxkhAob!y9ykzuULkPiccZGHGsJ_NzspqxynyikHhHr-uLywnwo
• Copy recovery.img to location C:\adb. https://mega.nz/#!qQIGTJQI!E6I2sHEBMy5z3k02jeTB-M3I4iZvPoSOHQHb612YBFs
• Place Magisk-v16.0.zip in root directory of phone storage. https://mega.nz/#!aIpSnbBC!DE5UIkABgxQNdfkNqqHPidHj-ywaZzT6RgEQwmpFqyw
• I tested this method on Oneplus 3 A3003 Oxygen OS 5.0.1
Unlocking Bootloader:
• enable developer option: go to SETTING  ABOUT PHONE  tap BUILD NUMBER 7 times.
• enable options in SETTING  DEVELOPERS OPTION (ADVANCE REBOOT, OEM UNLOCKING, USB DEBUGGING).
• reboot device into FASTBOOT/BOOTLOADER mode with the help of ADVANCE REBOOT.
• connect your device with USB.
• Go to location C:\adb and hold Shift key & do right click, you see option in drop down menu Open command window here, open command window.
• Give command “fastboot devices”, it shows the connected device and its serial number.
• Now give command “fastboot oem unlock” allow oem unlocking from your device screen. Your phone will restart after oem unlocking done.
(this step will wipe all your data)
• Congrats your phone is successfully unlocked. (you can check you unlock status in developer option)
Rooting:
• reboot device into FASTBOOT/BOOTLOADER mode with the help of ADVANCE REBOOT.
• connect your device with USB.
• Go to location C:\adb and hold Shift key & do right click, you see option in drop down menu Open command window here, open command window.
• Give command “fastboot devices”, it shows the connected device and its serial number.
• Now give command “fastboot boot recovery.img” this command will boot the recovery.img temporary you placed in C:\adb. Your phone will restart and booting TWRP temporary.
(if you wish to flash TWRP permanently you give the command “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img” instead, but it didn’t work for me I always end up with a stock recovery or freezing at boot image or bootloop)
• In TWRP allow system modification. Go to INSTALL select Magisk-v16.0.zip and swipe right to flash it, wait until the process done.
• Press HOME button in TWRP go to WIPEADVANCE WIPE and wipe system delvik & cache.
• Restart the phone and wait for approx. 10 min.
• You successfully rooted your device.
Custom Recovery:
• After successfully rooting your device, place the same recovery you placed in C:\adb to your phone root directory.
• Install Flashify from google play store or download it from here https://mega.nz/#!ydI3hAKC!gcH4T8Wd0mKxTFgsFxLLppnxMYPYto5PI3ahonewf1Y
• Open Flashify choose flash recovery, browse recovery.img and flash it.
• Congrats you successfully installed TWRP custom recovery now you can check it by rebooting into recovery mode by ADVANCE REBOOT.

I have done all the steps but For some reason twrp is not installed and i still have the stock recovery. Please help
That's because the above only boots TWRP to root but does not install it. To install TWRP, when in booted with TWRP, you need to transfer the TWRP img to the tablet storage and then install it while in TWRP.
it is important to show the pathway to the file TWRP-3.0.2_TB-X103F-beta.img in the command line, like:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\My Videos\TWRP-3.0.2_TB-X103F-beta.img
Sorry for this newbie question.
Which part of the above rooting steps is rooting my tablet, what is TWRP doing and why do I need to install the SuperSU app?
During my first try I didn't boot the TWRP image rather I flashed it. But that didn't help at all.
After booting the TWRP image I was able to flash the SuperSU app.
The stock recovery is still in use.
Thanks in advance.
Read the steps carefully and follow the steps, it is a tested successfull strategy. To get deep knowlege about the background processes, please read the threads elsewhere in Web.

Hi everyone. I just want to clarify something about this procedure There's a lot of people being confused on how to get into FASTBOOT on some things, and that's stopping them getting anywhere from the beginning.
The Lenovo TB-X103F tablet doesn't have a way of booting directly into FASTBOOT. Turning the tablet On while holding either volume key and the On button doesn't do it directly. . . . . Firstly, there's 3 buttons on the tablet, I call them VOL- VOL+ PWR (again, that's just to clarify things 100%)
here's what must be done (well it's this way on the 3 I have on my desk, so I assume all TB-X103F tablets are the same) . . . . .
1) Turn the tablet off completely.
2) Press & hold the VOL+ button (the middle of the 3 buttons).
3) Press & hold the PWR button, release the PWR button as soon as anything appears on screen - Keep holding VOL+ button.
4) After about 8 seconds the familiar green android lay down will appear. Then, your recovery menu will appear.
5) Release the VOL+ button anytime now.
6) Press either VOL button to select BOOTLOADER on the menu (Bootloader is the same as FASTBOOT on this menu, that's where the confusion lies for many users).
7) Got Bootloader selected? now press PWR and let the tablet reboot itself.
8) it will show the LENOVO logo, and appear to be stuck - it isn't It's in Fastboot mode.
9) Plug in your USB to PC cable, and it'll install appropriate drivers on the PC (hopefully eh?).
10) Once the drivers are installed, test it by getting a Command Prompt in your ADB/FASTBOOT folder on your PC . . . .
11) type the command FASTBOOT DEVICES It should show you that your device is connected, if it shows no devices then either it didn't install the drivers, or something
else is wrong (there's about 30 things that can have gone wrong here, too many to go through in this quick guide).
12) The tablet will stay in FASTBOOT/BOOTLOADER mode until you turn it off (or the battery goes flat lol). So stay calm, there's no rush
I've mentioned about there being no rush, because if you choose ADB connecting from the recovery menu, it disconnects automatically after about 5 minutes -
This is Important to know because it can disconnect while you're pushing/pulling files from the tablet, and cause really nasty problems. Bad design eh?
But we're in Fastboot mode, so nothing to worry about like that

Successful root
It was hard, but I had finally had done it. I had figured it out it is easier just to go to the command prompt (I ran it under admin) and "cd C:/adb" (where you installed the adb fastboot software) while having the TWRP image file being placed there. I only wished that I had done it sooner. And for those who are new to the custom recovery it can be overwealming, but with patience and going through the files in the file explorer to find your main storage would lead you to the SuperSU file and successfully root your device.
I flashed TWRP...now what? I can't find any instructions on how to reboot into TWRP. I got into some sort of Chinese menu (PWR + VOL-) but I'm pretty sure this is the device test menu.
So I did the "fastboot oem unlock-go" command and adb said ok but my tablet just went to a black screen and won't turn on now and I'm not sure why. I also heard the Windows USB disconnect sound when i did it.
Would this work with the TB-X104F running 8.1?
Since a few months my tablet is stuck with the 'password changed, wait....' message. I had hoped that I could overcome this with the steps mentioned here. But unfortunately not
I can't start it anymore, so I'm not sure if it is in developers mode or not. Also, plugging the device in my mac didn't let it download the drivers.
Too bad, because when it was working it was a great tablet, now it's just a expensive drawer filler

"fastboot devices"
