I have a Tecno Camon X Pro single sim(CA8S) which I want to install TWRP Recovery on it. I understand, I need to have a firmware ready where I can extract files like Stock recovery to be able to flash without errors. PROBLEM: I have looked all over the internet for a CA8S firmware, but can find any. So I was advised by X3non that I should use Wwr + SP Flash Tool to dump the firmware and later extract the required files. But now am stuck on creating the ROM_1, I don't know what I did wrong I have done. If someone knows where I can download the firmware for my variant Tecno Camon X Pro Single sim(CA8S), please share the link. I have attached the device info and the errors I encountered. Please help.

Thanks X3non for the reply. But am not using the custom DA file, rather am using the CA8 DA file I downloaded from this link <<Tecno CA8 Camon X Pro

Actually what I did, I deleted the custom file and replaced with the CA8 file I downloaded. But I don't know what is wrong...

Thanks, 

I have finally been able to install the VCOM drivers and dump the firmware for my Tecno Camon X Pro(CA8S) using Infinity box and I have a scatter file ready.
Now my next step is to root and flash a custom recovery and Treble Rom. But am not sure how go about the next steps, how to flash a Treble Rom on this device and which one to use, arm64 A | arm64 A/B? I need to unlock the bootloader, root and then TWRP last flash the custom rom...
Thanks for the advice in advance.

root using magisk @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21427.html
port twrp @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21839.html
your device doesn't doesnt seem to have the A/B (dual slot) feature. you can identify from your backup, scatter file, adb or even fastboot
BTW you still used the CA8 DA file to read firmware using infinity box?
