Anyone on Bell Mobility got the BOK1 update?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jpsjosh@gmail.com:
Stock rom here has 3 chinese and english and french. unfortunately no spanish :crying:

---------- Post added at 10:38 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:26 PM ----------

Great advice! Thank you!

Did you mean to say a 925w8/925f kernel?

In regards to updates. Those receiving the gifts are quite old and very communist. Long story. Teaching them basic english will be a hopeless task interjected with drunken falling. Spanish is KEY:D

Any ROM that is standard with just expanded language support that anyone can think of that would work?

They wont need flashing after receiving the phones. The elderly rarely insist on the latest and greatest (unlike us :).
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
I meant a w8/t. The T-Mobile and Canadian variant are identical when it comes to audio hardware which is what makes them different from the Intl I/F variants. All of the major kernels are supporting multiple variants. You should be able to flash unikernel/arter and be good to go.

You can download the Intl F based image which is almost bloat free and flash just the system partition using ODIN. Then flash a sound fix on top of it to make sure the in call audio works. Do not flash the kernel/modem/bl/cache/recovery. Simply the System image only and do a data wipe manually(leave internal storage as it is). After that install a custom kernel that supports w8 and everything should work theoretically.

Before you go flash happy though, I highly advise backing up the EFS partition using TWRP and making a copy of the backup in a safe place. That partition contains all your IMEI information and has a strange habit of getting corrupt. In case it goes corrupt, you will lose IMEI and will have to return the phone to a service center for repairs. With a backup, you can restore that partition in-case it is damaged.

Possible Rom with support

I'm on back to n0te v13.1 edge deodexed and it is listing spanish as one of the languages supported.

If that is what you want, you can download the rom from the s6 android development forum. The rom is built for s6 but it will run on s6e with a compatible kernel and audio fix.

Possible Script that could work

Here is a recent script that someone posted that supports enabling language. Haven't tested it personally but it could work as well.

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jpsjosh@gmail.com:
Evonc thank you! Hyge help!

Backing up efs on both now. Then will flash system image of this

stockfirmware.androidrootz.com/download-g925tuvu2cof6_g925ttmb2cof6_g925tuvu2cof6_home-tar-zip/

Then i need the audio fix then data wipe excluding internal and kernel. Could you point me to these?

after flashing system image only i will apply audio fix

then factory reset without wiping internal

then custom kernel.

Does it sound like im on the right path?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
You are. However, give that script a try first. It's a simple flash without data wipe. It may save you the hassle of flashing the other stuff.

Looks like you're flashing a TMO image. It should work without an audio fix. Just flash unikernel/arter kernel on top.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jpsjosh@gmail.com:
so do i flash just the system image or the whole .tar file?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
You need to convert the system.img file into a tar. There is a package posted on the first post of this thread with links on how to convert .img to .tar . Once you convert system.img to .tar, flash that package. I still highly advise you attempt that debloating script as it has an option to add additional languages and would be a lot easier and simpler to test than flashing a full system image.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] hattori.hanz0:
I've tried searching for answers to this but couldn't find anything concrete. Would like to keep knox intact, on 925W8 5.1.1 boj7. It looks like there is a method for 925t variants using ping pong but its only for tmo variants. Since the 925w8 is similar to it, is there a way for that to work on our devices? I guess a follow up would be if there is a current method to root on the above without tripping knox? Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] N_otori0us_:
Hi, I was wondering if there is a way to root my Fido s6 edge? It is 5.1.1 and baseband is the BOJ7? If so can you post a link to the thread. Thank you
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] toastyy:
I've been trying to root my telus S6e on 5.1.1 BOJ7 using the guide in the OP but I am getting the seandroid error on reboot. If I allow Odin to autoreboot the phone, it of course overwrites the custom rec and it boots normally.

For the seandroid problem, I've read that this is because the stock 5.1.1 rom will not work with a custom recovery. The problem is, I cant flash a new rom because I can't get into recovery after I flash TWRP in odin. I also tried a newer TWRP for zerolteusc but had the same result. Can anyone please guide me on to root 5.1.1? I had no problem on 5.0.2 in the past. My knox is tripped. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] n3xx:
Please help same issue
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Sorry I haven't attempted to root on 5.1.1 stock. I believe root on 5.1.1 based stock roms requires a custom kernel as well. If you wish to stay on stock rom and kernel, you should be able to flash the official recovery, boot into recovery and attempt to flash the systemless beta that chainfire released. Alternatively, if you want, you can go for a custom rom and kernel.

Link to systemless root: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64161125

Flash v2.62-3 using recovery and it will patch your kernel for root. Then install Super-Su app from play store and you should have root access. To accept OTA's, simply flash your stock kernel back and if you have not modified your system partition, you should be able to OTA with ease. If you did modify system by installing or changing any files, you will need to flash the stock system and boot(kernel) to be able to OTA. I have only done this with my Nexus 9 on MM however Samsung 5.1.1 support is mentioned and should work the same way.

BRICKED "kernel is not seandroid enforcing" HELP

Hey guys my phone Won't start

I was using CarHD Rom and i was getting bored of it so i decided to flash another ROM so came across CRISSCROSS v12 Rom and i didnt like it when i decided to go back to CarHD ROM ( as before) from my nandroid backup. i t work and finishes successfully. however when reboot i see "kernel is not seandroid enforcing"(in RED) and it seems to be bootlooping with the indication blue is on.

i did go to twrp and "factory rested" the device and wipe the device., and i keep on getting the same message i did download the stock ROM from sammobile and flashed it via Odin and still the same issue

Please if you can help that would be great

and greatly appreciated ( as i cant even turn on the phone.)

[IMG="DEVICE"]https://i.ytimg.com/vi/FxGgNggrD_4/maxresdefault.jpg[/IMG]
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Check the kernel you flashed. I think you need to flash a custom kernel for your device in order to get it to boot.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] 15mido:
I Tried flash uniKernel but same error.

Any recommendations ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] toastyy:
Thank you for your advice! I don't mind trying either method but I don't see how I can do them without a custom recovery. After Odin resets after the flash, the phone restores the stock recovery. If I turn off auto-reboot, I can't boot the phone into recovery with the normal key combo.

Your first suggestion was to flash the official recovery and use that to install the v2.62-3 file. Do I need to rename the file to update.zip for that to work? Or did you mean something else by "official recovery"?

I am interested in trying the custom rom method but again I can't get as far as flashing a new rom because I can't get a custom recovery working.

Thank you for your help :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
This is using TWRP recovery from their website for zeroltetmo.

What error does it give you when you try to boot into recovery with key combination. You need to do the combination and force boot into recovery right after odin passes flashing and before the system boots up.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] toastyy:
Wow, it was so simple! The problem seems to have been that I was using the zerolteUSC rather than TMO. Now I have successfully booted into TWRP :). Thank you for your help!

I'm going to try flashing the UniKernel here: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/sams...d-development/kernel-stockmod-kernel-t3100395

I believe that should fix the "seandroid not enforcing" problem?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
That should too. And the kernels support root so you can flash the root version posted in 1st post. DO NOT USE SYSTEMLESS ON CUSTOM KERNELS!!!. It will not work. Systemless root is only for stock kernels.

I just flashed a rom an now my phone is telling me to insert my sim card even though it's already in there. Is there a fix for this?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Try removing and reinserting it. If not, could be an issue with the ROM.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jazenf:
I did try that but that didn't work either and I tried different kernels as well with no success. is there any way to downgrade from 5.1.1 to 5.01
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Not that I know of. Just download and flash the stock 5.1.1 image using ODIN.

If it doesn't work on the stock image, try a different sim card to see if it's an issue with the card or hardware.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jazenf:
I found the image file an I had to restore my phone, what's the best way to root 5.1.1, do you know?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
If you're sticking to stock kernel and rom, flash twrp for zeroltetmo (Downloadable at twrp.me) using ODIN. Then flash the systemless version of SuperSU from the thread.

Alternatively, you could use CF-AutoRoot for SM-G925W8 as it has been updated for 5.1.1 as well. (Easier 1-step method)

CF-AutoRoot : https://download.chainfire.eu/790/C...uto-Root-zerofltebmc-zerofltebmc-smg920w8.zip

SuperSU Systemless: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64161125&postcount=3

SuperSU (System) : http://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133

If you are using custom kernels/roms, you'll need to flash TWRP, then flash the System version (v2.52) to root and then install a custom kernel. Failing to install a custom kernel may cause issues.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] LuffyxBomber:
Confused!

Guys, I'm really confused about how to get TWRP on my G925W8VLU3BOK1 (Bell variant). I currently have the stock rom (5.1.1) rooted. Is it not possible to have a custom recovery in this situation? I tried flashing TWRP (zeroflte) using TWRP manager and was met with a nice soft-brick. Please help, this is way harder than rooting and flashing my old S3 lol!
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Read the previous post.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] LuffyxBomber:
I tried CF-AutoRoot, and I still end up in the stock recovery. Am I suppose to odin install the TMO TWRP as well?

Edit: Thank you very much! I was not aware that the T-mobile build of TWRP will also work with Bell, thank you again for the kind directions.

How did you root your device? I followed the OP but bricked my phone
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Posted some stuff a few pages back, read it over. It should be straight forward.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] LuffyxBomber:
I had a soft-brick the first time as well. I had to access Download mode and flash the original 5.1.1 firmware

Specifically, this one: G925W8VLU3BOK1_G925W8OYA3BOK1_G925W8VLU3BOK1_HOME.tar (Keep in mind I am with Bell Mobility)

Anyways, this is what I did, taken from the previous page:

I downloaded the TWRP for Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge (T-Mobile)

I also downloaded the SuperSU (System): BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip

And finally downloaded this kernel (arter97-kernel-g925tw8-11.0)

which is from this thread.

Note: You can use any kernel that supports your model, not necessarily the one I chose.

Finally, I did the following:

Open Odin v3.10.7

Reboot Phone in Download Mode

Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

Add the TWRP.tar to AP / PDA

Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked

Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes

Reboot into recovery

Flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.52 for Custom kernels

Flash arter97-kernel-g925tw8-11.0

It's very important that you flash the kernel after flashing SuperSU.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] mtylerb:
Hey folks,

I've read through a bunch, mostly the last few pages and the OP. I didn't see anything that clearly answered whether the methods in here tripped the Knox or not. I'm wanting to flash the XtreStoLite ROM to my G925W8 on Telus. It has the 5.1.1 OTA update currently installed. I'd like to not trip Knox, if at all possible. Everything I've read shows 5.0.2 being possible and T-Mobile on 5.1.1 being possible. I've read that it is basically a T-Mobile phone with a Canadian bootloader, but I'm not 100% on what exactly will trip Knox. I've flashed before, but last time was on an HTC One M8, where there is no Knox to deal with.

Thoughts?

Thanks,

Tyler

If they're being honest about it being their computer system that won't allow sales of the phone before the 10th, then no. If that's BS and they were just told not to sell them before the 10th, then you'd have to find an employee who is willing to bend the rules.

I'll hopefully be picking up mine from Rogers tomorrow, since the delivery was made today and I've been credited the $40 reservation (just haven't received the call yet).

Are you guys going to be doing dead pixel tests/scratch checks in-store? Do you think if there's a problem they'll be able to replace it on the spot?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] ex-28:
how do you know u were credited the $40 reservation fee already?

im with rogers to and iirc it gets credited when you pickup the device or the reservation is canceled no ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] CatKitKat:
I thought so too, but I got a "confirmation of account changes" email from Rogers this afternoon. It had the following adjustment: "$40.00 Credit - NRS System - Do Not Use". I double-checked online and my reservation isn't cancelled.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Sevael:
I just got my call from Rogers to let me know that my S6 is in and that I can come down and pick it up tomorrow morning. I asked if I could switch the black 32GB Edge that I reserved for a white 32GB non-Edge. He said that they're probably not supposed to, but he had no problem with it so he switched it for me. He put my Edge back on the shelf and put a white regular S6 in my bundle with the free wireless charge pad. :good:

He also mentioned that they're expecting a huge turnout tomorrow, the kind they normally would see on an iPhone release. So now I have to decide whether I want to go early and wait in line for an hour or two in order to have the phone earlier in the day, or go in later (once non-reservation stock is gone) and not have to wait in line.

Anybody know if Rogers outlets typically serve reservations first before walk-ins? Or is it just a first-come-first-served basis and it's just a matter of them holding that piece of stock aside for you?

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] mtylerb:
Well, that sucks. Guess I could always run a custom rom until it's time to upgrade my phone and then just pay the $150 for a "lost" phone so that I have an intact warranty. Telus' T-Up program (device insurance and upgrade after a year where they forgive device balance by trading in your old device) requires a phone with no damages and no custom roms and tripping Knox will void that warranty (I lucked out last time and the dealer didn't notice the custom rom on the HTC One M8 until after processing the trade in and it was too late to undo it). Is there anything I won't be able to do with the Knox tripped? I'm not too worried about Android Pay or Samsung Pay. Besides those, I am not aware of any programs that won't run on a rooted device with Knox tripped.

Thanks for the help,

Tyler
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
I wouldn't hold my breath on Android Pay/ Samsung Pay. Looking at the mess of NFC based payment methods between various banks/carriers currently, I don't see either of them being supported anytime soon.

Samsung announced expansion into more regions during CES however Canada was not a part of it.

Android Pay will run on a bootloader unlocked device. It simply requires a full stock firmware including stock kernel to function. I believe it was working with systemless root for a bit however, that was an unintended side-effect and may have already been patched or will be patched shortly.
