These terms "stock recovery" have become confusing to a novice like me, as i was led believe that taking the "recovery img" file from an offficial rom that is also installed on your device is stock recovery. When i say this in this case its very official rom i flashed myself that is currently running on my phone. Hence i assumed that there is no need to extract the recovery image from my device.

In saying that my intention for wanting twrp was to flash superuser to root and then create swap partition to speed up my device. However since magisk has already rooted this device my objectives are met.

Did followup on the link you gave, and on previous marshmallow build i did have to flash twrp twice which was a relief to know as a common issue.

hello, thanks to the tool I was able to install twrp on my phone but when I go into recovery I don't mount the partitions, it puts everything 0.
I read that I'm not the only one that happened to him, how can I solve it?

thank you, and seen the solution... but to fix it I'm forced to format the partitions and install a rom later by twrp, for my phone currently there is none

TWRP mount problems comes in two forms
1. unable to mount the partitions listed under twrp > mount. for this you need to edit ramdisk/etc/recovery.fstab
2. if you're able to mount the partitions listed under twrp > mount but twrp requests for key to decrypt /data and internal storage is 0mb. for this, you can try the fixes @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-30160.html

if you still have any problems then create a new thread for your device issue by clicking "ask question" at the top

you need to flash back a real boot.img to boot your device into system. if the boot.img is on your device already then you can do this directly from twrp > install > install img. if not then flash using fastboot or any other means
if you don't wish to flash into boot partition, you can try the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" ; if successful, it should boot twrp without flashing and when you reboot, the phone will be able to go to system
BTW is your device currently android 9 OS?

Yes, it is android 9. The problem for me is that it looks like nokia disabled the fastboot boot command, so if i try that, it doesn't boot to twrp. But if i flash it over boot patition, i can't patch the original boot.img, which i need for magisk, disabling dm-verity and other things ;c

well, you can always flash magisk patched boot back to boot partition when you need to return to system and twrp when you need to use a custom recovery
