I want to root my device.

First looked for CF Auto Root, but no image available. Now want to try TWRP.

Is version "G920F - zeroflte" already confirmed to work?

TIA
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ianmacd:
There is a CF Auto Root image available for 6.0.1 on the G920F. It will work.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
Thanks for your answer.

I tried the one you are pointing at, but the flash process failed.

Since the build-id is MMB29K.G920FXXU3DPBG I thought that might be the reason.

I fulfilled the prerequisites (installing the right USB-driver, checking the connection inside Odin), so it should go pretty straightforward. But it didn't.

Any suggestions?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ianmacd:
The difference in build target shouldn't make a material difference.

When you say "the process failed", did it complete properly, but yield no root; or did it fail with errors before completing? If the latter, what were the errors?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
The process did complete properly, writing "failed" on the last line. No further errors thrown, no root yielded. I got back to my original system by pressing Vol-Down+Vol-Up + Home+On-switch.

I wish Odin did throw some error to learn why the process failed....
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] meduza:
...it`s could be an Odin issue, that was the case for me, I had to reboot the PC to get things flashed...

m.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
To be sure I 've rebooted the system. Next you can see what procedure I followed. And Odin's output.

1. Download, Extract and Install the Samsung USB Drivers(then reboot)

2. Enable Developer Mode on the Galaxy S6

3. Enable USB Debugging on the Galaxy S6

4. Back up your phone data.

5. Download the CF-Auto Root firmware

6. Extract Odin.

7. Power down the phone.

8. Press and hold the following buttons in order: Volume Down + Home + Power. Keep holding them until you see a screen that says "Warning!!" at the top.

9. Press the Volume Up button to continue.

10. The next screen will show the Android logo and say "ODIN MODE" at the top left.

11. Run Odin as administrator. Under Options, only "F. Reset Time" should be checked.(Uncheck"Auto Reboot" ).

12. Click the "AP" (or "PDA") box and browse for the extracted firmware file.

13. Now connect your phone to your computer via USB.

14.Wait until you see your phone plugged in.

15. Press Start in Odin.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
I did some further testing in rooting my S6.

On another windows machine it gave the same results, so maybe it was the phone acting strange?

I tested my wifes' Samsung S6 and that one rooted without a problem!

So I went searching for differences in specs:

- Same build-id

- Same kernel, in fact: everything the same, except:

- In Status SE for Android" her phone has "SEPF_SECMOBILE_6.0.1_0011", while mine has "SEPF_SECMOBILE_6.0.1_0008"
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] erghetto:
The last one for sm920f is 3.0.2.1 right?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
Don't know what you mean...
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ianmacd:
The security policy update to SEPF_SECMOBILE_6.0.1_0011 was a well-publicised kiss of death to root on many Samsung devices a couple of weeks ago. Those who had root lost it when their devices were updated to 0011.

Chainfire responded by putting together a new CF Auto Root that works around the problem by removing any applied policy updates from the device, and disabling the ablity to install them in the future.

That's the history, but none of it should actually matter for what you're trying to do. Installing the latest CF Auto Root for the device should simply root it. In fact, your other phone probably had policy update 0011 prior to rooting it. CF AR probably returned it to 0008.

Even if you were trying to flash an older copy of CF Auto Root, it should still apply properly. You just wouldn't have root after rebooting.

So, I'm sorry, but I have no idea why your Odin flash of CF Auto Root is failing. Has the device ever been rooted before?

I would suggest trying TWRP, but if Odin is failing, that may well fail, too.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
My S6 is a second hand purchase, but Knox warranty void is 0

Using TWRP 3.0.2.1 with Odin 3.09 for the second time (that's why I posted here):

<ID:0/004> Added!!

<ID:0/004> Odin v.3 engine (ID:4)..

<ID:0/004> File analysis..

<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/004> recovery.img

<ID:0/004> NAND Write Start!!

After 20 minutes NAND is still writing, and Odin's buttons for Start, Reset and Exit are greyed out.

I think the process is in a stale state.

Not sure what to do now.

Edit:

After 1 hour I terminated Odin and pulled the USB plug.

After that, the phone booted normally into the OS. Nothing changed from this last action.

However, one question remains unanswered: why this phone behaves so abnormally while trying to root using TWRP and CF Auto Root.

As I wrote before: I purchased the phone 1 year ago, second hand, Knox wire not tripped.

The phone always behaved as expected, and never crashed.

Therefore I 'd like to find out why the phone does not fulfill the rooting-process.

Any suggestion is most welcome.

Thanks for your answers so far.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] algernonz:
OK, I 've got it sorted now.

I did a factory reset on the Samsung S6, and then the rooting process succeeded!

Thanks for your patience.

cannot install the 3.0.2

Hi I use 920f one with france stock rom.and try to instal twrp 3.0.2 with odin but cannot install it in no way.when ı have tryed to install with odin it keeps saying that pass and successful.but when I reboot the device and put into recover mod ,ı just see the stock recovery mod. No any a dab hand to fix this issue ? pls help
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ApriliaM3:
It sounds like your TWRP is being overwritten.

I had a similar issue with my Note 4 and did the following to fix it.

Reflash it again with Odin and make sure the reboot option in Odin is disabled.

Once the flash has completed successfully, pull the battery. (With the S6 maybe you cannot do this so I guess hold the power button until the device powers off)

Replace the battery and manually boot into recovery using the buttons (Power, Home and Volume Up).

TWRP should load correctly.

When you go to reboot to the system, TWRP will likely ask you to disable Recovery overwrite to prevent it happening again.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ProfUgo55:
Finally got it to work. Successful sequence was:

(1) Cf Auto Root. (Reboot several times, first time to recovery.)

(2) Use TWRP app to install. App reported failed installation; ignore, reboot to recovery.

(3) TWRP is there. Wipe Dalvik and reboot to recovery a second time.

(4) TWRP is there again; system has not tried to overwrite recovery. Wipe Dalvik again for good measure and reboot to system.

(5) Once system comes back up (yay!) reboot to recovery and back to system again a few times until everything is cool.

Rooting first seems to have been the key -- the CF Auto Root recovery didn't bootloop.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] dc12345:
Hi,

I am a total newbie in this, so I would really appreciate anyone's help on this !

A friend rooted my Galaxy s6 two months ago, and today I accidentally rebooted my phone into TWRP mode (v3.0.0.0). I have no knowledge of rooting and flashing ROMs, and now I am stuck on the TWRP menu with the 'rebooting options' into system, download and recovery not seemingly working (it jams when I try to go 'reboot' -> 'system' / 'recovery' / 'download'. All the other options like Install, Mount, Backup I do not know what to do with them. Believe me, I have read some articles online about exiting TWRP but none quit explains how to 'exit' most just explain how you flash a ROM and backup using TWRP. I do not need to do that, I just want to return to pre-TWRP mode where everything was working fine, now I cannot call or use Whatsapp for a whole day, can anybody help with this please? It would be very much appreciated! Thank you.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] coukou:
Hello,

I have a Galaxy Note 4 SM-910C with 5.1.1 XEH N910CXXS2CPB3 (original rom), I upgraded it to 6.0.1 ROM XEH-N910CXXU2DPE6 (original rom).

Before moving to the upgrade, I made a full backup with TWRP 2.8.7.0, then I proceed with the upgrade 6.0.1 with Kies 3 and complete this operation by a new full backup with TWRP 3.0.2.0. I recall that all data and apps are identical, only the OS has changed.

Everything went well. However, I'm surprised by the difference of the size of the 2 backups (almost double):

5.1.1 = 34 files 6.14 GB

6.0.1 = 36 files 11. 6GB

Is it due to the OS 6.0.1 or TWRP 3.0.2.0 compresses less well than 2.8.7.0?

Regards
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
It isn't TWRP. we still use the same pigz application to compress with GZIP as we have for a long time now. Check the size of the tarball on both backups per file: tar tvzf (renamed win file to .tgz)
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] AeonXDA:
I tried to read the whole thread to get an idea what to expect and now I'm lost...

I'm having a similar with encryption, like below, except I cannot seem to get TWRP to prompt for the decryption password.

"Could not mount /data and unable to find cryptofooter

Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)

Unable to recreate /data/media folder" etc.

Did you remain encrypted when you fixed your problem, [MENTION=791908]MakeMoves[/MENTION]?

Moto G4 Plus 2016 Athene xt1644 on Marshmallow, successfully (systemless) rooted once while unencrypted (have a full nandroid backup), unlocked bootloader.

I read that the latest 3.0.2.0 version of TWRP supported encryption and decided to give it a go. Flashed stock firmware successfully, encrypted in android settings (ensuring that the option to require password on boot was checked), then installed TWRP, then rooted with SuperSu.

Some sources suggest that backups made while unencrypted are incompatible with encrypted file systems. Can anyone confirm?

I would love to use my unencrypted nandroid backup on my now encrypted phone, but TWRP does not prompt me at all for a pin/password and gives me the errors mentioned above. I can boot the phone fine (and it correctly prompts me reach time for my pin) and it has no operating problems I'm aware of, but I can't use TWRP virtually at all which is a huge downside.

Would appreciate any help in getting TWRP working again. I tried flashing Shrep's TRWP mod only to experience the same errors and no prompt for password. I haven't tried wiping the data cache yet as some phones have apparently bricked trying this option. Is my only hope to flash stock again and go back to unencrypted?

Of final note: since encrypting no settings will save in TWRP - it asks every time if I want to leave system partition unmodified (regardless of the option picked previously or whether the box is checkered to never ask again), re-enables vibration on touch, etc.

There's almost no information available about this issue online, so your help and suggestions would be very greatly appreciated.
