How to Install Custom Recovery on the Tronsmart TS7 Glacier (MTK6582)
Now that you are rooted, the next step to flashing custom ROMs is installing a custom recovery. Not only can you flash custom ROMs, you can also make/restore backups on a custom recovery (ClockworkMod Recovery in this case), a very useful tool if you plan to switch between custom ROMs all the time. The guide should help you with this procedure and you should be done in no time.
I. Before You Begin
1. Your Tronsmart TS7 needs to be rooted before you start this procedure. If you aren’t already, use our guide to root it the easy way.
2. Back up everything you feel is important just in case, although data loss is highly unlikely.
3. Charge your device to 75% or more before you start to prevent unwanted shutdowns.
II. Necessary Downloads

3. Tap on Recovery and you should be provided with a list of .img files on your SD card.
