What's security policy date?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] donchentico:
MAY 04
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] callumbr1:
I think that is why it is failing. From what I have read autoroot won't work with a security policy newer than April.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] donchentico:
How i can solve this?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] callumbr1:
I don't really know. I would say magiskSU but you need custom recovery for that also
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] donchentico:
Downgrade version?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] callumbr1:
Not possible Verizon phones are locked. I have read some posts and you can't downgrade, or root or flash custom recovery. Not sure what to suggest.

Hi [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] I downloaded NRD90M.G928VVRS3CQD1 cf-auto-root from firmware dot mobi for my G928V but when I flash it but I'm getting SECURE CHECK FAIL : (RECOVERY). OEM unlock is enabled and FRP is disabled, but I don't think bootloader is unlocked. I did see the 'custom' lock logo on my first boot after I flashed NRD90M.G928VVRS3CQD1 but disappeared shortly after. How can I make this happen?

Hey,

I wanted to root my Galaxy S4 i9505 using CF-auto root. I cheked the version of my s4 i9505 which was i9505xxuhoj2, then go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ find my device model and exact same build (i9505xxuhoj2). I generated cf auto root file, boot phone in bootloader mode, unzip file and used odin (which was in that zip file too) to flash this generated file (using AP). Odin gives me FAIL and I cant boot my phone normally because of error during start (firmware upgrade encountered an issue please select recovery mode in kies).

So I flashed stock firmware (using Odin) with another build. This time i9505xxupqg1. Everything went well my S4 was running normally. So i decided repeated the procedure. Go to https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ and genereate cf auto file (this time for build i9505xxupqg1). I flashed the cf auto root file using odin and again it gives me FAIL.

Below screen of that FAIL:

I have rooted my phone with CF auto root and Odin, everything was successful but I have several banking apps that doesn't work with root and I have tried magisk to hide it but I don't want to mess with twrp, so I ended up uninstalling root via supersu. I thought everything went fine but when I went to Google play and tried to search for Netflix or revolut it said that my device is not supported for some reason. Also in one of my banking apps I've used biometrics scanner and now it failed to use it and I got the message. Your device has su binary or something like that. How do I fix it? How do I completely remove root without twrp or factory reset?

Did anyone rooted SM-G925F with NRD90M.G925FXXS6ETJ1 rom yet?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Docmjldds:
Everyone here is just going to have to wait for a custom recovery. I have the 128GB edge. I softbricked using the 925 root file. I re-odined using the 920 file for standard S6. Root works. Plenty of apps asking for su rights. So yeah, all will be great once a custom recovery is posted as well as some ROMs to start flashing. It's only been a few days. Give it some time. Just my 2c :fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] suhailtheboss:
FYI for everyone wanting to do a reset or something. The recovery is still there, we just can't view it correctly.

The steps to do a reset:

Volume down - 4 times

Power Button

Volume down - 7 times

Power Button

Then wait 30 seconds or so and hit the power button again to reboot.

I was able to successfully factory reset my device doing this, but this will not un-root your device.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Pannalogic:
Holy **** it's like finding the Konami code

SU permissions

Hey guys!

I got my T-Mobile S6 edge a few days after the pre-order. This phone is amazing!

I was unable to flash using the S6 edge file but I was successful flashing the regular S6 file. Everything seems to be working fine except with ( clean master ) not working properly. I am trying to stop apps from auto running but when I click on it, it checks to grant and tells me I have to grant permission when I already did. It seems some people are having the same issue and I have yet to find a solution.

(this was after taking the OTA and I was not aware at the moment that Chainfire had root access already)

Anyone have any thoughts, ideas?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] eousphoros:
You should pull the 925 cf auto root so people stop bricking their device
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] DLovo313:
Like I just did this morning. .. I can still access download mode, so if I odin the 920 auto root file it should work???

I can currently only get to the logo screen or download mode.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] eousphoros:
That is the easiest way to recover but you have lost your stock recovery till official firmware is released
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
Hey,

some of us Sprint users will be getting our phones tomorrow.

Im coming from all HTC phones since the HTC touch Diamond.

Ive used Odin on my friends phone. What do i need to flash to gain root?

I dont think the T-mo file will work with sprint. The Sprint bootloader should be unlocked.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] gdmlaz:
[MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] should deff pull the 925t file so people stop bricking their device back to back
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Blanko6:
I'm having the same issue where after rooting can't do a factory reset . I tried this witch have never heard before but didn't work. :(

I'm sure you have to do it with the phone off and not hold any buttons at any point ,it's just a push of a button right ?

Thank you
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] suhailtheboss:
Sorry I should have been more specific in my original post. Enter recover first as you normally would. Then on the crazy white/green screen follow my instructions to reset.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] DLovo313:
If you rooted it, recovery is lost.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Blanko6:
If I unroot would I get it back or should I flash a custom recovery ? I need to factory reset this thing and see of my battery life improves.

Thanks bro.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
There is no custom recovery yet as developers are trying to work on something. If your battery life is not going as well as you expect I would suggest first letting the battery die out completely and then do a full charge. Also, try using apps like clean-master or some sort of task killer to stop apps from running in the background and also auto starting.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] nappent:
Greenify is a much better app for keeping applications in check. That said, this root process is preventing the phone from going into "Deep Sleep". So battery life is going to be crap no matter what. Will need to wait for a fix.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
I use Greenify as well.... I noticed several bugs for example like the G S5 once rooted you lose the privilege to screen mirror / allcast. I am having issues with granting cleanmaster permissions. I am assuming that may have to do with having to install framework perhaps. Like you, I am awaiting an update. There isn't a major issue for me to unroot. My battery fairs okay but not as long as I would have imagined which I may have the same issue with the deep sleep??

how do you know if deep sleep is activated?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
Just received my Sprint S6 Edge!!!

Will there be away for me to obtain root?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
well, you are in the right place...........just have to read. only thing I will tell you is to use the S6 not the S6 edge file as it will cause a soft brick unless [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] has fixed it. Please use the forum to obtain the information you need and is already there.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] FieldsInc:
Thanks Budd I'll try it now
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
Yea i was reading up on that. I just wanted to make sure i could use the same file on my sprint device and it wasnt tmo exclusive
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
at the moment I am not 100% as only tmobile is the only ones releasing phones. if anyone else got their hands on it I have not seen a post with people having issues
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
So ima be a guinea pig?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
what you want to do is go to the first page and click the link and look for you model phone. if you have T-Mobile, just use the S6 file not the edge file as it for some reason does not work.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
I have Sprint. Not tmobile. Thats why im hesitant
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] sum1one:
I wouldn't blame you. I double checked for you and I do not see the file for sprint. I would suggest checking the sprint s6 forum and see if anyone has tried it. I am sure [MENTION=631273]Chainfire[/MENTION] is working hard to get updates.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
Yea thanks bro. Sprint is the 925p. And i didnt see it either.

I guess we will see what chainroot says!

Man...I'm still on Rooted S5 and after completely reading this thread,I think I'm going to drop Samsung like a bad habit when my upgrade time comes up. Samsung and these service providers just keep locking stuff down tighter and tighter. Unfortunately I'm on AT&T as well,no unlocked bootloader love. Hope all you S6 guys get all this figured out!!

Is there any way to get the stock recovery back? On most other OEMs devices, you can reboot to bootloader and flash .img files, is that possible on samsung devices? I'm attempting a factory reset, but it never works. From the settings menu it simply reboots, and if i try to get in using the key combinations it flashes in the top third of the screen, then goes black. I've tried the vol- 4x, power, vol- 7x, power key combo when the screen is black, still nothing.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] xadidas4lifex:
you should still have the stock recovery.

there isnt a custom recovery out.

sounds like your coming from a htc device? same

what are you trying to do?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] beats4x:
I was deleting system apps, got cocky as I have done this countless times on HTC and nexus devices, and now I'm in a boot loop, the best kind though. The system boots for a minute or two before it resets itself. I'm either trying to reset the device by getting a working stock recovery on there (which I can't /:) or trying to get someone to upload a TiBu copy of their system apps (just apps, no data of course) so I can restore and stop this boot loop.

Smh, can't believe I messed up the phone this quick.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Brian288:
The 920t file
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] antiguangenius:
Edge Rooted first try no issues...
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] FieldsInc:
When booting into recovery it flashes white screen and then phone turns off. No stock recovery visablw. I even tried the blind factory reset, down 4 times power button, down 7 times power button as if the menu was there without success. Making me believe I am not in recovery in the first place.

Booting to recovery = black screen following a white flash and black screen.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] beats4x:
After multiple attempts, I finally was able to factory reset and get the device working. It's there, we just can't see it and it doesn't always seem to want to do the factory reset. I must've tried more than ten times.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] RoM_Addict:
The reason why the SMG920T works is because it's linked to the Build ID LRX22G.G920TUVU1AOC9 which is the one that TMO currently ships on. The 925 instead is linked to Build # LRX22G.G925TUVU1AOC3 which I'm not sure where does it come from.

Hence the SMG920T is actually the right file for the TMO S6 Edge.

So i am planning on rooting my s6 edge and have several questions hopefully you can answer me

1)What is exactly bricking these devices, i here people saying its the knox, is it active by default? I went to the smart manager and it says that my knox active protection is off, would i be safe?

2)When rooting will that void my warranty?

3)When rooting will i lose everything i currently have on it?

4)How will this impact future updates? I had a nexus 4 on lollipop rooted and when i had a ota, i was not able to update it due to it being rooted, had to flash it

Thanks
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] soulpilot:
Tested on my 925i working but use the 920t root file .920i it gets stuck on boot screen
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Globalrebel:
You need to read a little bit man. Spend some time on here and read all the messages under Q & A and do some google searches next time. I'll help the best I can, but others may flame ya a bit :)

1) KNOX is samsung security and is built into the phone itself. It will trigger a KNOX 001 code once you try to unlock/root your phone. YOU WILL LOSE WARRANTY AT THIS MOMENT!!

2) please see #1

3) You will not lose everything if you do it the moment you get the phone ;)

4) I believe that future updates are only affected if you try to install a different ROM then samsung's TW. You will need to look into this more to be sure thougth. (At this time, I bet most will tell you that it is too early to know)
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] RoM_Addict:
Second all that.

As far as the updates, once (and IF) you decide to install a custom ROM they will be provided by whoever made the ROM in first place. Like it's been said above, if you choose to stay with stock Samsung you will get the OTA, but you're likely to loose Root privileges every time you update.

2) did you take the OTA before attempting root?

I'm an HTC guy so trying to be careful :silly:
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Brian288:
Don't know about unlocking bootloader. But I did take the ota before rooting
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] dhonzik:
Brian,

Are you saying you have a Sprint S6 Edge and have successfully root it?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] Brian288:
Yes. Using the autoroot for the standard tmobile galaxy 6.. Guess theyre not all that different.... Im alittle upset however.. Many people have been saying thier screens dont autorotate... This is before rooting so its not rooting thats causing the problem... Im jusy glad other people are experiencing the same issue so i dont feel like i have a complete dud lol... Maybe an update can fix it.. But then that would mean i would have to unroot. :(
[Galaxy S6 Edge Original Android Development] dhonzik:
Normally, I dont like the dam screen rotating except while watching a video, which it does in the youtube app with the update. I go ahead and try the tmobile s6 root file. I'll let you know what happens.

EDIT: The update doesn't fix it since I took the update before I successfully rooted my phone. My next step is to find somewhere to unlock my phone for international use
