What recovery & Gapps did you use?

I can't flash open Gapps with TWRP 3.0.0, get an error message that the Gapps aren't compatible with 6.x AOSP or CM.

I tried ARM 6.0 all variants - from stock to nano using clean flash right after flashing the ROM.

Thanks but for me this version proven buggy as it didn't recognize the external sd card.

I gone back to TWRP 3, tried flashing again and now I'm successfully on mokee ROM.

I'm on Mokee at the moment. So far not bad, another update just released.
[Galaxy S 5 General] Warrimonk:
Can someone please link me a mirror to the RR rom? The baidu website is crap and the download never finishes before the speed reaches 0. Gets to about 110MB and then says website connection error every time.

[Galaxy S 5 General] CrimsonKnight13:
Mokee is quite buggy for me. My LTE data doesn't turn on after a cold boot/reboot unless I quick switch airplane mode on/off. I also get lag for the launcher to show up after the screen has been locked for a while, which can be random.

I'd rather go with a stable 6.0.1, even if its TW. From there, I can use Xposed Framework modules to customize my experience. I personally love AOSP but there's only so much I can do with it if its glitchy.

I haven't tried to unlock any bands on my current phone. Is there a guide for that?
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
The guides exist fit Sony Xperia, Nexus and One Plus One.

They don't work for SGS5
[Galaxy S 5 General] BahnStormer:
Not ideal, but one workaround could be to setup an automation tool to put the phone into airplane mode and back out on initial boot?

Is it laggy for the first few seconds after walking up or permanently? Just a thought that it might be deep sleep /power saving related.

It's not exactly straight forward, but yes, Here

[Galaxy S 5 General] arctophile:
Woo MM! Maybe CF-autoroot will still work? Worth a shot....
[Galaxy S 5 General] bud7dha:
CF-Autoroot works off of LP bootloader (BOI5 firmware); I wouldn't advise using that unless you want a soft brick.

Later, when I have time to flash the new firmware, I'll try flashing SuperSU Beta 2.72 using TWRP 3.0.0-0 and see if that works (with a terminal tweak). http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133

We don't have the latest TWRP (3.0.2-r3) available for our device; the latest one is a Note 4 port courtesy of [MENTION=5441270]kykint[/MENTION].

TWRP 3.0.0 doesn't work; just boots into system. We need a version based on MM.
[Galaxy S 5 General] BahnStormer:
See my last update - you need to "Wipe - Format Data" after Mokee.... but before GApps and SuperSu. I also cleared the Dalvik/Cache after that, but not certain if it was required.

I'm pretty sure I did NOT do this the first time, but I definitely had to do that the 2nd time around...

how to root & flash twrp g906k on official android 6.01 ??
[Galaxy S 5 General] botwa2000:
For me the MM update works extremely buggy:(

The screen doesn't wake from sleep neither with home button nor with power one. I have to press them multiple times. I got a smart view cover that worked perfectly with KK and Lollipop, now is useless as the screen doesn't turn on if I open the cover.

Then I get the latest active application goes FC.

After that the ROM is smooth and I like its design but the above problems driving me crazy.

It looks as though [MENTION=6469318]CallMESuper[/MENTION] is working on the root / TWRP issues. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66879951&postcount=1073

On windows, I tried modifying TWRP 3.0.2 for g901f using Carliv's Image Kitchen and a few other tools - ended up with a recovery over the magic 15 MB, and of course it failed through Odin. At least I didn't brick my phone.

Even on stock MM, battery drain thus far seems minimal - much better than anything I experienced on LP roms.
[Galaxy S 5 General] tr0jance:
Is this true? So is there a way to root our phone after installing this?
[Galaxy S 5 General] bud7dha:
You can upgrade but there's no root. We probably won't be able to root until we have a working version of TWRP upgraded to MM bootloader. I tried four different rooting programs / apps, and they all failed - most likely due to tighter security courtesy of knox. Another way to get root would be to decompile the firmware, add root / busybox, deodex, debloat, etc. and recompile it to be flashed via Odin (like [MENTION=4898097]arter97[/MENTION]'s old LP deodexed roms). I'm new to linux, and [MENTION=718594]super[/MENTION]R has a great kitchen going - http://xdaforums.com/chef-central/android/kitchen-superrs-kitchen-t3202296; unfortunately, I'm not a rom cook or skilled in programming.

[Galaxy S 5 General] bud7dha:
On 906s TWRP and SuperSU seem to be working fine thus far. The request for a new CF-Auto-Root was posted as another way to gain root allowing ppl to use flashify without the need for TWRP - just in case the port didn't work out.

From the the first page of that thread --> "Prerequisite:

Try the "alt" version instead: http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3739979&d=1462374312

I followed instructions and it works great.

I also installed the alt version of xposed framework successfully. Thanks very much! :good:

It seems to me that the ROM is quite stable. I can feel there are big improvement on the memory management than Lollipop too. :D

I attempted to install the recovery by kykint but it seems not working very well with CallMESuper's kernel (made my phone bootloop).

Not sure about why. So I go back to CallMESuper's after that.
[Galaxy S 5 General] CallMESuper:
When you get root, private mode will be unable to turn on unless you have a modified version of the private mode app instead.
[Galaxy S 5 General] bud7dha:
I think CallMESuper's kernel is setup for regular (system-based) rooting (i.e., SELinux set to permissive), while the other way is systemless root. They cannot co-exist and would lead to a bootloop for sure.

I'll try [MENTION=5441270]kykint[/MENTION]'s TWRP on a fresh install and skip [MENTION=6469318]CallMESuper[/MENTION]'s kernel patch. I want to see if SuperSU will work without the patch. If it doesn't, I'll revert back to the original set-up. If it does work, I'd like to see how systemless root behaves on this device.
[Galaxy S 5 General] CrimsonKnight13:
I can confirm a working setup with the following:

- TWRP 3.0.2-0

- Newest firmware from Samsung

- SuperSU 2.74 Systemless

- Newest Xposed Alternate Version from Wanam

So far, zero issues to report. One could find that the data partition is smaller than it should be but that can be corrected by doing a filesystem repair in TWRP.
[Galaxy S 5 General] mwice:
+1, i also can confirm zero issues for now.

updated from 4.4.2, without wipe anything, just disabled all xposed modules.

flashed 6.0.1 using odin, booted, all apps working. flashed TWRP 3.0.2, then SuperSU 2.74 and xposed-v84.0-alt-sdk23-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20160504.zip,

enabled some xposed modules, all working ok.

Hi Miscom

Ok so I tried your odin and still no luck.

Here are pictures as I am doing it.

The first one is the phone plugged in download odin mode.

The second one is odin settings

The third one is odin failing, it fails as it is writing the system

The fourth one is what the screen looks like on the phone when it fails, just a little blue progress bar.

Any more insight or info you could provide that would be great. I really hope this thing is not bricked. I might try to do it on a different computer maybe it is just something with the computer. I have made sure I have the latest usb drivers also.

Did you use a PIT file to repartition your phone?

Have you tried using ODIN with Kies off? Meaning kill KIES from task manager before using ODIN.

At some point, did you trying flashing a G906S ROM in your G906K phone with ODIN?
[Galaxy S 5 General] rx7boy22:
No I did not use a PIT file the first and only thing I did was just try to root using odin and it failed, now it is stuck

Should I be using or trying a PIT file?

I did make sure kies was shut down also. Could it possibly be that I have the 906K and yours is the S?

Have other people had success with the 906k that you know of? But obviously my first problem was that I did not enable the reactivation lock.

I tried another computer and it worked fine!

I super appreciate your effort in trying to help me fix my issue miscom and also thank you so much kelddaug for getting a PIT file for us also.

I have something to report here regarding the 906s.

I tried browsing the websites adobe.com and anandtech.com. apparently they are both blocked on the chrome browser and stock browser. I thought it was the carrier but using dolphin, I was able to access those sites. I even tried tethering and I could visit those sites with the tethered device as well.

When I try to visit those sites on chrome, I get a single word unauthorized displayed on the browser. On the stock browser, I occasionally get something other than the unauthorized message. I get a message regarding failure to get response from proxy.

This can only mean that everything I'm sending and receiving is going through an intermediate server. The phone is bone stock. I do not have any ad blocking apps or antivirus installed. Can you guys test this on your stock roms? It is very worrying....

I have the proper 6.0 bootloader. Mind explaining beyond your post with the screenshot?
[Galaxy S 5 General] CallMESuper:
When I try to root g906 stock6.0 before samsung release 6.0 kernel source, I have try all of the version of twrp built with 5.0kernel even I update the patch of selinux and none of them works. As I said there is something different on 6.0 bootloader. Before samsung release kernel source, we need a patch to flash 5.0 bootloader and those twrp built with 5.x kernel can works. But the thing is that samsung released kernel source few days ago so there will be a working recovery on 6.0 bootloader. And as you see kykint's twrp just is that recovery. So is that clearly? Now you are using a twrp built with 6.0kernel source which one can work on 6.0bootloader and telling me that you do not need to flash patch to prove that I'm wrong. If you try twrp before releasing 6.0 kernel source you would not be able to boot into recovery mode. If you are still confuse about what I am saying ,just have a try with a twrp 3.0.2 built with 5.0kernel.

After that if you still do think I'm wrong, just ignore me please.
[Galaxy S 5 General] CrimsonKnight13:
It would appear you're agreeing with me in regards to TWRP 3.0.2-0. If the newest firmware release requires that exact version of TWRP moving forward (w/o any patches), why are we arguing? It's a caveat, sure, but there's no need for an argument when its a simple acknowledgement of what's required. You can make a special patch, kernel & TWRP to fit your vision but I feel that you're just catering to anyone who's using the old TWRP ports people have made. We have now been provided a workable fix, which only takes flashing via Odin, TWRP, or FlashFire. At this time, there is no TWRP 3.0.2-0 with v5.0.x built-in.

I take my leave of this argument. I'll discuss anything else regarding the new firmware in full.
