OMG! THAT'S IT!, IT WORKED!!! YOU SAVED MY STUPIDLY EXPENSIVE PHONE (and from some seriously painful beatings from the wife had she found out the $1100+ phone died).

Okay enough of my excitement. Thanks for the advice, and helping me revive my phone. I hope Chainfire updates his first page post to ensure other people don't accidentally semi-brick their phones.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Alex-V:
and after this you installed the OTA..?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] mmayhew:
Yes, I installed the OTA and successfully rooted the S6 Edge (SM-925T) by using Odin 3.10.6 and the non-edge auto root (SM-G920T). It will trip KNOX as expected.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] shadowk91:
The Updater recognizes that my phone has been modified so it won't even allow me to download the OTA.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] martinezma99:
Has anyone successfully updated OTA first and then flashed AutoRoot?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] mmayhew:
Yes, several of us have had success flashing Auto Root after installing the OTA.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] FieldsInc:
I have took OTA and rooted, using the 920t auto root.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Dr4g0n:
first i made the update to the last version (with odin, because ota dosnt work),

than i flashed the autoroot file with odin.

now extract the "update" and grab the recovery.img

the version for your phone, you could download from sammobile.

you need the hole firmeware file (over 1gb size) this includes the recovery.img
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gdmlaz:
That definitely did it rooted the device and odin flashed stock recovery and deep sleep is back

here is the stock recovery for anybody using a tmobile edge

TO FIX DEEP SLEEP SIMPLY ODIN FLASH STOCK RECOVERY AND DEEP SLEEP WILL BE FIXED AFTER YOU ROOT :D

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
If thats the case, i should be able to use the tmo recovery on the sprint one correct?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gdmlaz:
I believe you would need to use the sprint one
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
Dang it. Cause i cant find the firmware for the sprint one to pull the recovery from it...
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
That's the same problem with a custom twrp I tested.

It was there but you couldn't see it or it was messed up greenish hue.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Mistar Muffin:
I am also in need of the Sprint 920 recovery to fix my deep sleep.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] nappent:
Testing this on my 925t right now.... Flash went smooth. Just need to let my phone sleep to see if it is registered.

Update... Deep sleep restore with stock recovery flashed after root. All smiles here!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] rjwdon:
I've done this, and Odin doesnt seem to indicate any issues, but then I cannot boot into recovery, so it seems almost like its not installing correctly? Any ideas?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] kashortiexda:
seems TWRP team uploaded TWRP for S6 .... NOT EDGE VARIANT yet

http://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys6.html
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] abuleen:
Do you have SM-G925I?

The recovery will take some time to kick in my device, around 20s

Do you still have deep sleep issues?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gav83collins:
How do mate. Fancy seeing you here. Have you tried it ? What version of the edge do you have
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] rjwdon:
not really sure, will leave it overnight and confirm, it is going into deep sleep, it just seems to be a very small % of the time
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] bamfsig45:
flashed this via flashify and phone wouldn't boot into recovery or system. had to reflash cf-auto root. maybe flashing it via Odin would give different results.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gav83collins:
On what edge version did you try this on
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
this is for the S6, NOT the S6 EDGE...I wouldn't flash it on an edge..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] bamfsig45:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
I flashed a twrp build for the S6 Edge and it booted up with a messed up display
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gav83collins:
Which twrp build did you flash. Link ? And what version edge do you have
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
This one from a PM. TWRP was there but I couldn't see it.

Also Tmo bile Edge. G925T
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gav83collins:
Ah yes thats the one i have linked in my sm-g925i thread a few days ago. I just didnt try to flash it
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] The Kid Cassidy:
Hey guys, just got my s6 edge (tmo) yesterday....and of course I need my root! So I'm reading and seeing some issues with deep sleep? Now my phone did have a software update which I took....so what procedure do I need to take for root and regular sleep?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gav83collins:
From what ive gathered. Just reflashing the stock recovery after rooting will fix deep sleep. But it didnt affect me. I have the sm-g925i and i flashed with sm-g925t root file

You can find the stock recovery on my sm-g925i device specific thread in the general section
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] kashortiexda:
[MENTION=4491606]ktetreault14[/MENTION] I just unpacked the image of the TWRP you flashed from the PM from [MENTION=2564537]wase4711[/MENTION] - that seems also actually an S6 (920) zeroflte one too, not an S6 Edge (925) zerolte

See the build properties from that TWRP - it's a zeroflte

The Edge is zerolte (no 'f' ) - theoretically, given the CF root works on a 925 using a 920 CF, I don't see why the TWRP shouldn't work too - I would imagine (but cannot confirm) the recovery is the same ????

correct, it is NOT for a edge, so please don't flash it if you have a EDGE
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] The Kid Cassidy:
Thanks man, I'll give it a spin tonight after work. Any other issues I should be concerned with?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
The 925T stock recovery worked on my Sprint Edge.

But it did not fix my deep sleep issue.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
Wow I am really liking this cross compatibility
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] m4k4veli:
Can anyone already confirm, having succesfully flashed the cf-auto-root for the international version (SM-G925F)?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] loudaccord:
I saw that Sprint's version worked... I'm assuming no one has tried it on a Verizon version yet.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:

Black Screen With TWRP Too!!

What is going on? I have installed the TWRP, however still when i try rebooting to recovery I get the white flash and a black screen, this time i can feel the vibrations of key presses in TWRP. After using TWRP for so long i remember where to press to reboot the system, but why the heck is both stock and custom recovery a black screen.

Why cant i see any recovery!!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] drakon.us:
Which TWRP did you use?

On TWRP's site, they only have the S6 Recovery, nothing for Edge yet.

(the Edge uses a different screen, so maybe it has a different controller/driver?)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
see the post below yours; the is NO TWRP for the S6 EDGE as of now..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] tjy8tim:
I have the ATT version, 925A, looks like there's no way to root for now, is that correct? thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] drakon.us:
I noticed that there is a s-gm9250 version posted up now! yay!

but my phone has locked boot loader ( ....does that mean there are 9250 versions with unlocked bootloaders and I just got unlucky?

I bought my phone directly from Samsung, without any contract. This is really ****ty if this is the case....

Just to confirm when i'm in ODIN on my phone it says the following:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gdmlaz:
Have you tried flashing your stock recovery back on ???? I had no recovery when I rooted but you could flash back your stock recovery till twrp or cwm becomes available
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] FieldsInc:
How did you flash the stock? I have the stock recovery zip. But what process did you use to flash it?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
use odin
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] woosie:
I do. As I reported,CF-Auto-Root for S6 Edge worked fine for me.

I, at first, upgraded into a new OTA, then I did CF-Auto-Root for SM-G925F.

It worked perfectly. It was easy.

SM-G925F
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
If you guys have black recovery then just press where the reboot would be and where the system button would be.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] m4k4veli:
Thx mate. Makes me confident to instal root now ;)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ac7822:
So has the s6 edge T-Mobile version been updated so it doesn't get stuck? Or is it best to still use the regular s6 T-Mobile auto root?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Joecool92:
Did someone have the recovery.img for 925F? i only found the 925T version:(
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] R1CKJ4MES:

925F recovery?

Can anyone provide me with 925F (unlocked international/nordic) recovery image? Since root, I have Deep Sleep issues and dont get more than 2 hours of SOT. Trying to download full firmware but have had no luck with that so far! Thanks.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Joecool92:
I use the 925f autoroot from Chainfire. After the odin flash the deep sleep didnt work and i had to flash the stock recovery.img. The Stock recovery.img is in the stock firmware (downloaded DBT at sammobile). I´ll try to upload it here :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ksekhar:

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Joecool92:
Sorry, i have no tar.md5 file because its extracted from the firmware tar.md5. I use the flashify app from store to flash the img.

Please unzip the attachment for .img file. The zip is not flashable.

Deep Sleep and root working flawless.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ksekhar:
Did you receive any verification fail error on recovery after Flashify recovery boot?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] m4k4veli:
Yes i got that error, but rebooted and deep sleep worked like it did before.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Joecool92:
I got that dm-verify fail too. It doesnt matters... it works fine :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] katolink:
Attached recovery.tar.md5 extracted from G925F firmware (open attached zip file and extract the .tar.md5 file).
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ac7822:
Does anybody know?? Tmobile edge guys are you rooting with the s6 edge file or the regular s6 file??
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
go into chainfires thread and read through it; I don't think there is a working t mobile s 6 edge working autoroot yet, at least there wasn't as of yesterday.

Keep in mind that by using a root method and/or recovery whatever that is not made specifically for the edge, you run the risk of having issues once a working root method/working twrp/cwm comes out for this phone. Most likely, you will need to Odin back to the stock firmware, then re root, then re-flash the proper recovery, otherwise things in TWRP like back up and recovery wont work properly, and you might not be able to properly flash roms and stuff for the SM-G925T, which is what this phone actually is.

Your phone wont properly report what is it, if you have flashed/recovery imaged with the G920 or what ever some folks have used to get root up to this point...I still have no idea what the rush is to get root at this point, since there is nothing to actually flash on this phone, but hey, people are just so anxious to flash anything to their 1000.00 dollar toys I guess...
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ac7822:
Those are all good points, but f I reflashed the stock edge recovery after rooting that would take care of those issues you brought up, no? I read this whole thread and the main chainfire auto root thread but with like 70 pages between the two, I couldn't figure out if it had been updated for the edge. I'm going to hold off on rooting for now with no twrp or roms for the edge , no point to root to just say i have root. I'm sure by the time roms start coming out cfautoroot will be updated for the edge.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
my thoughts exactly

and, reflashing the stock edge recovery may or may not fix the files that were modified when you used the S6 Auto Root method. No one knows for sure..

As I said, just going back to stock firmware via Odin, even though that would erase everything on your phone, would probably fix any "damage" you might cause by using these other root methods/fixes, but, here again, why bother rooting right now, when there is nothing to flash???
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] rjwdon:
hey, anyone know if its possible to get OTA update after rooting phone? when i try it says it is detecting that my os has been "modified in an unauthorised way"

alternatively, any way to remove root, install OTA then re-root?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
nope, no otas after rooting

if you want ota's you have to be on stock

if you can find the stock image for your phone, that has the ota built in, just restore it via odin, then re root, and you have what you are looking for

Or, if you can find the stock image without the ota, then restore it via odin, then take the ota update, then root again
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] rjwdon:
right so its dependant on finding the stock image, thats more or less what I had figured, thanks!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
try sammobile first..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] rjwdon:
yeah nothing on sammobile for 925i that i can find.

edit: weird, doing another search has yielded results... strange... oh well will give it a try :)

will flashing stock firmware wipe apps etc? little unused to samsung's way of flashing stuff, coming from HTC one then one m7 and m8 lol.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
new firmware gives you a clean slate, so everything except when comes from the factory is gone
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] krabman:
Doing nothing more than getting rid of the ads is somewhere around 100 times the incentive I need to root. And yes, one extra minute of ads is one minute too much. I'm old, I wasn't born and raised with crap flashing in my face and I'd rather throw my 1000 dollar toy through the window than have that on my phone. Now you know why one pathetic old man wants his root. :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] drakon.us:
Need root for a lot of things, for example, restoring legacy apps that don't have import export functions for the data, performing complete app backups in order to use restore mode to 'refresh' the phone, enabling call recording, connecting PS3 dualshock controller to the phone, etcetera...

And these are just the things that I want to do RIGHT now...I'm sure there are a lot of other things that will come up.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
LOL@"pathetic old man":good::silly:

I'm just hoping that Chainfire releases a proper root for the t mobile edge, so we don't have to use the workaround of using the t mobile S6 root..
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] ktetreault14:
Has anybody use the PlayStation Sixaxis app to connect a controller to this phone yet I tried with a fake controller but I don't think it worked.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] krabman:
Chainfire is a machine, I'm guessing it will get sorted out soon. I understand your thoughts, right now I'm sticking with just getting the host file in order and enabling some root apps. I'll revert and start over from scratch when the smart people get things figured out. :good:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] wase4711:
yeah, now that there is a confirmed twrp working for our phones, I guess I should just root and get it over with; restoring via odin should be no biggie, once chainfire gets an actual working root for the tmobile edge..

thanks!

For some reason I can't get my SM-925F to root (Edge 32gb). It doesn't go to recovery and just keeps showing the logo. I've flashed the 925F and 920F, but nothing. I can enter download_mode just fine, but it won't let me go into recovery mode. Even manually it won't. Any tips or am I missing something? I've read as much as I can find, but I'm running out of idea's unfort. And I've been staring at the logo for about 10 minutes on multiple tries but nothing >.<
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Tigermoto:
Looks like we're in the same position, I have a 3UK 925F and i'm still looking at just a logo. I've even tried using Smart switch to get back to factory, still can't pass the splash screen. If you use smart switch, you'll be able to push down in download mode and quickly vol+ - Home - power will get you back into recovery. I couldn't do anything to fix it from there either though. Taking it to Samsung store on saturday. Tried everything. Cleared data numerous times. Flashed using smart switch again, cleared cache and data, got up to starting apps once, but it was there for 6 hours, restart and I'm stuck at splash screen again. left it there for 20 hours, never passed it.

I wish you the best of luck however
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] criodor:
Well, I just managed to fix it with a full firmware (grabbed it from sammobile, about 1,5gb) and it appears to be working again. It's not even wiped :) So that's a tip to atleast make it work again. Still gonna try rooting it though. See if it works now this time. I'll give an update if it works.

And rooting now works ^^. If u want, I can upload the H3G firmware somewhere, but it downloaded with 3mb's from sammobile so might as well grab it from there.
