[Galaxy S6 Edge General] craig0r:
Maybe someone can help me regarding the CSC code. I installed the ESK (Eastlink) update via ODIN, overtop the custom ROM I had. Flashed TWRP, installed Unikernel and SuperSU, booted up and ran through the setup. I noticed that the Bell bloatware was there. No biggie, I figured. I re-flashed the stock recovery via ODIN. I then ran *#272*IMEI# to change my CSC to Rogers (RWC.) I selected RWC, hit install, the phone rebooted to recovery. When it rebooted, my phone was not wiped, although the CSC would now show as RWC. But I still had the Bell bloatware. So I did a factory reset from recovery to try and fix that, but that seems to set my CSC back to Bell (BMC.) (Note also that the stock recovery says "dm-verity verification failed...) at the bottom.

Any thoughts on how I can get RWC to stick as my CSC for a fresh install, so I can get the Rogers bloatware? Yeah, I'm not a fan of Bloatware, but I'm on Rogers and would like to be as proper as possible. I know this will (oh god, hopefully) all be fixed when a Rogers update comes out, but I'm just puzzled as to why it doesn't seem to be working.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] TheLastMirana:
Is it safe to download and flash this latest update via odin? like is there any problems with 5.1.1, I looked through the forums and it talked about some modem issues was wondering if that was still prevalent to this build
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] -Mr. X-:
those of you that just want he modem and bl ive updated the corresponding thread.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] brar.arsh:
Thanks man, this is so good.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] ysr84:
thanks for the info.. now lets mess with 5.1.1 lets see if we have google lock, frp and other stuff.... time to do some serious research... :)
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] citats:
Thanks to many on this thread for info on how to update a Bell S6 Edge... changed CSC to Telus updated to 5.1.1 switched CSC Back to Bell.

Best method for me as I need to use Knox for work email and keep big brother out of my device.. work wonderfully!
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] joep2k:
Does that mean by changing CSC Knox goes to 1.. Or when you put telus firmware on a bell phone

I'm planning to buy fido phone and use Rogers on it. So I may be in the same boat
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] citats:
Knox didn't change what so ever. You don't need root and changing csc back and forth didn't trip knox. My Bell edge is fully stock running 5.1.1
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] joep2k:
Cool thanks.. So did you update ota from telus after changing the CSC, or did you update to 5.1.1 via Telus firmware.

Also did you change the CSC in the phone using the dial code?

Its good to know I wouldn't be stuck on 5.0.2 though sad you need to go through all these loops
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] citats:
OTA update... csc was changed via dial code. Each csc change does a factory reset.

I have a quick question. I am running stock 5.1.1 and have call and text message delay problems, Can i flash the OG2 modem via odin or do I need to root it and install custom rom and then flash that modem? and how do I flash the modem, just putting it in the CP button and flashing it? and I read in a thread that i will need appropiate bootloader file as well.

I have the download link for BL from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/canadian-odin-5-1-1-bootloader-twrp-t3196595

I am running

Android: 5.1.1

Baseband version: G925W8VLU2BOH8

No root and stock.

I tried installing twrp via the method posted on first page and I cant seem to boot into TWRP, rather its going in android recovery

Can someone please post instructions on how to do this?

Please help. Thanks in advance.

Nevermind I had stock kernel which was the problem, now phone is rooted and running xtralite rom, now just gotta get rid of the delay message n call problem.

The 5.1.1 update

Guys i have the Vidéotron S6 Edge and i didn't get the 5.1.1 lollipop update even though most variants of the s6 and the edge got it including the international version!

If any one knows when will they begin rolling out the update or have they already released it and i didn't get it or what?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] 850RPM:
probably never.

as like the rest of providers, except Telus; same for the android 6, we will never have it

Here you guys go:

Model SM-G925W8

Model name GALAXY S6 Edge

Country Canada (Rogers)

Version Android 5.1.1

Changelist 5635704

Build date Sat, 12 Sep 2015 11:07:35 +0000

Product code RWC

CSC G925W8OYA2BOI6

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9pv0htAxifYQlV0d2lKbFRpclU/view?usp=docslist_api

All the Canadian firmware is the same with maybe a couple differences between carriers. I've flashed this on my Bell sg6 E and everything works perfectly.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] howipig:
thatsupnow,

Greetings.

No data wipe after you have flashed it? We know it's Multi-CSC but does it consider a CSC change from BMC to RWC in your case?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
I've flashed it both ways and no issues and I still had all the Bell bloat ware on it
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] howipig:
thatsupnow,

OK. So has the CSC actually changed in your GS6 edge now? Thanks for your reply.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
No it still kept the BMC after flashing but I'm running xtresolite ROM and its now reading whatever CSC code now
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] howipig:
thatsupnow,

In this case, you may be on a different path than stock BMC flashing with stock RWC… I simply do not want to risk my data being wiped.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
There was no data wipe tho... Flashing with Odin doesn't wipe anything unless you tell it to do so. I've flashed all the firmwares for the s6 edge and for the s6 and they all had the same outcome
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] howipig:
thatsupnow,

Then why it shows "Erasing..." upon reboot at the Stock Recovery Console? Kind of confusing... Oh well. As long as it works, who cares? hehe
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
True it says erasing but I guarantee you it's not wiping personal data away. And besides that everything is synced with the cloud so really there could never ever be data wiped out. Unless you consider your time to be too precious?? Ha-ha

Hi guys,

I just installed the Rogers 5.1.1 rom on my completely stock Bell S6 Edge using Odin. I rooted the phone before, don't know if that was necessary. Everything works perfectly fine and I can confirm that it didn't wipe any data. Everything is identical as it was before, minus the new stuff from the update.

Now let's wait for Marshmallow. I'll take the rom from the carrier who release it first.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] butthurtlocker:
How did you root 5.1.1 after you updated?? I updated to rogers 5.1.1, and have tried to flash the twrp in op and the TWRP 5.1.1_edge recovery fro Mr.x. Both leave me in a boot loop flashing "s6 edge, powered by android" logo over and over.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Bawlti:
I rooted BEFORE the update. The installation removed root access.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
I'm pretty sure you can't run the stock ROM with custom recovery. I had the same thing happen. If your gonna go that far just flash a custom ROM and you'll be good to go

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] superskid:
I have a W8 on Wind Mobile currently running Android 5.0.2

I have been wanting to install a custom ROM (CarHD unless someone suggests better) but held off upgrading to 5.1.1 via custom rom because of our Canadian version. Something about the speaker not working, or needing to upgrade the bootloader or radio first? Can't remember. I DID ROOT MY PHONE THOUGH

I see now that there is a 5.1.1 released by Rogers.

That leaves me with one question?

1.) If I want to install the CARHD Rom do I need to install anything else first (bootloader, Rogers Rom, etc.) What are the proper steps to end up with CarHD?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
You must update the bootloader if you want the fingerprint scanner to function.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] superskid:
Link or instructions for that?

Then I just flash CarHD or Rogers first?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
There is a thread in S6E General subsection for W8 5.1.1 bootloader. Download and flash it using ODIN. There are several guides around explaining how to use it. It's fairly straightforward.

Flash latest TWRP after and then flash your ROM. No need to flash stock ROM first.

Full OI6 Image for G925W8. Unzip and then extract the .tar.md5 using 7zip. This will provide you with all the individual partitions. To flash them using ODIN, you will need to convert them to .tar/.tar.md5 packages using the tool posted in OP. Flashing the cache parition will wipe all data including internal storage!

Anybody with Bell flash the rogers rom? Is it any better than the telus rom or are they the same?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] ModestGenius:
Hi,

I apologize if this has been asked already, I searched the last twenty pages to make sure it wasn't, and I'm new to the Samsung world (Always been with HTC, it's loads easier rooting there).

That being said, can I use the CSC/phone-dial method to switch to Telus from Bell and get the 5.1.1. update, then switch back.... and if I decide there are performance issues, can I go back to the 5.0.2 Bell software by downloading the software from Sammobile?

Thank you in advance, and I apologize once again for my ineptitude with Samsung devices, I know the XDA community really doesn't like ineptitude.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
Will not be able to revert back. Once you update to 5.1.1 the bootloader gets updated and 5.0.2 won't run on the 5.1.1 bl. The bootloader also cannot be downgraded.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] ModestGenius:
Thank you, I appreciate that. I suppose for the foreseeable future, I will continue to be frustrated with both Bell and Samsung, and curse myself for thinking the M9 was not enough of an improvement over the M7. Many thanks.

I'm on 5.1.1 official telus stock unrooted and I'd like to flash a custom recovery and rom. I know with pre-5.1.1 bootloaders custom recoveries would prevent deep sleep, but there was a fix for that version.

Can someone please direct me to instructions on how to flash a custom rom for our Canadian w8? My understanding is that most Roms are compatible with our phone so long as we do not flash certain components, or if we refresh stock files afterwards (ie radio).

It's been a while since I tinkered with my s6e and I want to make sure I don't have to unbrick it again.

I already unlocked the bootloader before the last upgrade.

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] howipig:
I think it's all relative... if you want the Custom ROM and a hobby, then it's no-brainer. However, it may not be a deal breaker if just rooting it for a few features. To me, the incentive becomes fewer and fewer as the features I want now become available without root anymore.

Anyone rooted and have custom rom?

what's the difference perform/battery/stability wise? major or minor?

viper,adaway,xposed,lucky patcher,and custom rom(if theres really better one available for W8)

are there more things that makes it worth rooting?

I hope this is in the correct place

My First Post here on XDA :confused:

Hello everybody. If I have posted this in the wrong place I apologize. I have spent the last week reading xda and am blown away by the huge amount of quality info here and think I am ready to make a post asking a question. Here goes. Please be gentle. Im new.

I have 2 galaxy s6 edge 64gb sm-g925w8 phones. Both are rooted.

android: 5.1.1

android sec patch level: 2015-11-01

baseband: g925w8vlu3boj7

kernel: 3.10.61-S6_UniKernel_v8-0002_rbgl@BlueDingo #1

Fri Sep4 16:01:33 BST 2015

build number: LMY47X.G925W8VLU3BOJ7

They are both rooted. SuperSU Free installed. Knox is tripped.

Both phones are going to Cuba as gifts for friends in a few days. I would like to add spanish language support to both phones. I have tried both morelocale2 and language enabler and both come up short in the sense that not all menus (phone menus not app specific menus) are in spanish. I would like to add the spanish language or put a rom on that is stock except it has many languages to choose from (or just english and spanish is ok). Can anyone point me in the right direction? If I have left any info out that would help you answer my question just ask away.

Thanks in advance and it's a pleasure to be here.

Regards,

Josh
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] thatsupnow:
I'm running XtreStoLite rom but I have the exact phone you got. I would imagine the stock rom has that option in there too
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] jpsjosh@gmail.com:
It doesn't unfortunately. English, French and 3 Chinese type languages. I need to add spanish. Would I be able to install a 925f rom into my 925w8?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] evonc:
You should be able to install it however, you'll need to flash a respective audio fix to make sure in call audio works as well. Also make sure you only install the system.img and nothing else. A 925w8/925t kernel will also be required for everything to function.

Another thing to consider is OTA's/updates. Being gifts and knowing the phones are rooted/custom flashed, the receivers will not receive updates which is why it may be best to try and get the phones to stock condition and try to help them learn the english menu. While it may be difficult at first, their phones will at least stay updated unless the users are already proficient with rooting/flashing.
