A big thanks to jhofseth, one of the Senior Members of XDA for sharing this guide along with the stock recovery image link to download. Due to Android’s open-source nature, most of the Android users always prefer to install custom recovery or any custom firmware or enable root access, etc. So, once you unlocked the device bootloader and install any custom recovery on your handset, your stock recovery of the stock firmware will be removed whether you flash a custom ROM or not.
What is a Stock Recovery?
Each and every Android device model do come with its own stock recovery mode along with the stock firmware (preinstalled). Now, talking about the Android Stock Recovery, it’s a bootable partition of your Android device that is installed in the recovery mode which can be accessed by using a combination of power+volume buttons.
