Hi
What is the difference between a flashable zip and a .img file for installing twrp?
I found an unofficial twrp and they listed a .img file and a flashable zip.
The img one is no longer available but inside the flashable zip there's a .img file. Can I take out the img file and flash that?
I don't need a detailed response all I need is a yes or no.
Thanks

Yeah go ahead and flash the recovery.img file thats your twrp recovery

from what i understand... you can apply an image file with an NBH extension through fastboot... and you can also apply an image file with a ZIP extension through a flashed recovery mode.
what's the difference between these two kinds of files and two methods of flashing?
also... the instructions that i followed on the cyanogenmod website had me perform these steps.... 1) flash NBH in fastboot, 2) flash recovery using app installer, 3) flash cyanogenmod through recovery mode. my question is... why was the first step (flash NBH in fastboot) necessary? why couldn't i have just gone straight to flashing the recovery mode and then flashing cyanogenmod using recovery mode?
thanks for the help everybody!
anybody? somebody must know the answer to this.
i think nbh file contains all of the rom function such as spl, radio, system,image while zip file contains onyl apps, boot image and system folder

It isn't specific to your device but, try going to this thread and download ONLY the TWRP 3.0.0.3 for SPflashtool file.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/k3-note/general/sp-flash-tool-tutorial-to-install-twrp-t3346041
Then extract the file, then replace the scatter file and the recovery.img in that file with your scatter file and your recovery.img(make sure to rename your recovery .img to "recovery.img")
Then just follow the flashing instructions listed under the "Now, the flashing part" in that thread.

You didn't understand anything about what I said
I did not tell you to use the recovery in the link that I posted.
I told you to download the file that is linked in the thread that I gave you.
Then extract the file that you download, open the folder that extracts from it then delete the scatter file that it contains and delete the recovery file that it contains.
Then you need to place a copy of the scatter file for your device and the recovery.img for your device in the extracted folder. Make sure that you change the name of your device's recovery file to "recovery.img", otherwise, the program will not recognize your recovery file. After placing YOUR files in that folder, you are ready to flash the device.
If you didn't understand that clearly then I can't help you.

Install the Arter kernel. And now I get an error when I want to update that way. So I need to go back to stock rom.
Do you know any way to do that?

Shouldn't be flashing a kernel without proper backups first. You need stock untouched boot.img and vendor_boot

You can download the zip file containing th full update of your version in a thread here, them using the payload dumper tool you extract all img files inside
I don't know how to edit so more details about this process:
1. Go to sticked thread Repo of oos builds
2. Download the zip file of the firmware you are using
3. Download the payload dumper here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850510260
4. Once extracted extract the payload.bin from firmware zip into payload_input directory
5. Launch payload_dumper.exe
6. Process take few minutes depending on your computer, result img files are stored in payload_output directory
7. Have fun with your img file
