I am one of them who bought in hk and using in China. Its cheaper in hk but I was not sure that China phones don't have gapps installed. I thought u could install the latest play store apk but I could be wrong.

This is the forum I used for rooting my Hk G9200.

http://bbs.shoujifans.com/forum-100-1.html

I can't read Chinese and I use chrome to translate the web pages. Not only the Chinese have working root for our phones but they also have English theme support. Remember the TWRP recovery didn't have touch working on our phones. I have no idea if its solved but I am using the Chinese TWRP with English theme. I have sort of concluded that there won't be many English support for our phones and have to rely on Chinese forums for it who by the way are not only talented but also very fast.

I am currently using soul v4 rom with soul kernel. As TheEndHK mentioned though our dual sim phones G9200 are same I think internally they may have something different. The rom i am using can be installed on either Chinese or hk G9200 but they have a big disclaimer saying that one should not try to install wrong versions. Also this rom doesn't have gapps installed but they have a gapps package which will install play store once thats installed then u can installed other google apps. I like it that way so a lot g bloat apps not installed like play music, play books etc.

Also I am using China mobile 4g lte with no issues though I haven't tried the Unicom 4g but I do feel it should work since before buying I asked hk shops id hk g9200 did support a lot lte bands in China and they replied in positive.

I'm having the exact same issue with the same phone. It's really bothering me because I can't tell if I'm connected using data when I'm away from Wi-Fi. I even took it back to Samsung and they did a factory reset...I had to set up the phone from scratch, all for nothing because the icon still doesn't show. I know you say you played with the gsm settings, but mine still won't appear. Anyone have suggestions please?

can someone please explain me how to root G920FD running on latest formware, so many diff posts is a bit confusiong and since i am not in Dubai(where i got it), i am scared of Bricking it.
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Just flash a custom kernel with ordin. Just make sure it's a touch wiz kernel, I think all of them are right now so you should be good to go. Or you could flash twrp with odin and flash a full custom rom. They're all rooted.

Anyone has a stock 920FD recovery? I want to flash it to get back deep sleep on my 920FD. I tried 920F recovery and it bricked my phone.

---------- Post added at 05:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 AM ----------

Well, I just made one myself. Flashable via Odin (and flashing img from the tar file will likely get your device bricked).

Again obviously this is for 920FD (D for Duos, meaning you can have two SIM cards in your phone) only.

Download here:

And sorry about the weird Baidu link above. I am currently in China and have trouble uploading files to Android Host or other non-Chinese file hosting servers (they are slow to the extend of unusable or simply blocked).
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Thanks for sharing. Just wondering though. What deep sleep problem were you having?
[Galaxy S6 General] aeroxy:
The common one that rooted phones lost deep sleeping on S6?
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Hmm, I don't seem to have that problem as far as I can tell. Running custom ROM though.
[Galaxy S6 General] aeroxy:
You might actually have the problem, you just didn't know you do. You can download CPU Spy and see if your phone enters deep sleep at all.
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Thanks for the tip. Just tried it and it says 72% deep sleep over the last 18 hrs. That doesn't sound too bad I reckon.

Can't get calls Mexico Nextel

Hi everyone,

I've been looking for an answer over google because the carrier Nextel in Mexico couldn't (or didn't want to) help me.

I bought the SM-G920FD a few weeks ago and started to play with it, so I put my Nextel sim in slot 1 and made some tests SMS works fine, internet navigation works fine, but when I try to make a call it keeps like "dialing" but no sound of dial, and suddenly it hangs up, I can't receive calls either, so I went to my carrier and asked for help, they did not solve my issue.

I have another sim card from Movistar in Mexico too so I put it in slot 2, and from sim 2 everything works fine, been looking in google and I believe is the band base version but really don't know.

I did a research and says here in Mexico Nextel works in LTE band 4 and band 1.

So far I've done nothing to the phone, 'cause I am afraid to break it :p

Please, please somebody help me.

This is the phone info.

band base version: G920FXXU3COI9.

compilation number: LMY47X.G920FXXU3COJ1

AP: G920FXXU3COJ1

CP: G920FXXU3COI9

Oh then you are fine. Some people don't lose deep sleep for some reason. What version is ur TWRP?
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Always nice to hear. Seems like a strange problem. Same hardware 'should' give the same results.
[Galaxy S6 General] aeroxy:
What's the version of your TWRP?
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
2.8.7.1
[Galaxy S6 General] aeroxy:
Which ROM are you having?
[Galaxy S6 General] rajackar:
Latest XtreStoLite (deomod 2.4) with add on pack. It's a slightly older rom but working super stable and battery friendly for me. Also tried some tyrannus roms and never had issues with these.
[Galaxy S6 General] aeroxy:

Please tell me S/N

You will find the serial no on the box which your phone came with. If you dont have that then i am afraid nothing can be done as i dont think even Samsung would be able to fix it.

[Galaxy S6 General] merza kheder:
Try flashing the normal sm-g920f firmware i heard it works fine but do it at your own risk
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
he he as i have any risk left. i just flashed TWRP and was able to finally get the data backup.

I have a question can i flash any custom rom that is available and works with S6 Duos, will it work, or was the phone required to be rooted before that.
[Galaxy S6 General] merza kheder:
I'm pretty sure it has to be rooted
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Ya thought so, any flashable file which i can flash using TWRP that will flash my 5.1.1 firmware. I guess this is the biggest issue of buying a model which is not mainstream, if it was the International version of S6, i am sure i would have been flying now.

Thanks for all your help mate.

Though below it has been confirmed that the 920F seems to work, so i guess i will be able to bring this phone back to life.

Yeah use the UK (BTU) firmware just in case u wanted to try the marshmallow beta

What you've done your method Marshmalv Android updates?

Online Application galaxy core

Through the application odin
[Galaxy S6 General] deepsrd:
I replied to your PM.. :)

But i am quoting the same here anyway..

To get the marshmallow update, you will have to flash your G920FD with a BTU firmware..

You can get it from sammobile. (grab the one for 920F, its the same..)

After that, you have to reset your device twice, once from recovery, and then from Android itself.

After that, open your Samsung apps and download Galaxy Care app.

In the app, sign up for the beta, and you will get the OTA within the next 24 hours..
[Galaxy S6 General] Jhayzt:
Umm, I'm in the middle of backing up my files at the moment.

When you mean reset your device in recovery and android, do you mean, wipe data factory reset in recovery, then factory reset again inside android? Just elaborating stuff. I don't wanna mess up things. XD
[Galaxy S6 General] deepsrd:
That is correct. :D

use smart switch to back up.

You can restore once updated to marshmallow.
[Galaxy S6 General] Jhayzt:
Yuup. That's what I did. :) Umm, what options should I choose in ODIN?
[Galaxy S6 General] deepsrd:
Which version of Odin are you using? v3.10.6?

Auto Reboot and F. Reset Time is checked by default, leave it as it is.

Make sure repartition is NOT selected. (unchecked by default)

Just load the AP to the file you downloaded and unzipped.

I managed to pick myself up a Duos SM-G9200, it was the HK version so has been updated to the latest version (G9200ZHU2COJB).

As previously mentioned, installing Chainfire will soft brick the phone, I also got bootlooped trying to install SuperSU beta.

You will also need to download CROM from the official Samsung App store to unlock the bootloader, so to save some headache of downloading the rom again on an extremely slow download please do the following:

Install the CROM app and unlock the bootloader

Boot up ODIN and flash TWRP (twrp-2.8.7.1-zerofltespr.img)

Boot up TWRP and install the rooted kernel posted on the thread (G9200-OJA-Root-Permissive-Kernel)

You can then install Xposed via TWRP and should be good to go. To everyone who has already owned this model of phone for a while, I assume there are zero custom kernels/roms available, and we can't cross flash the chinese roms to it?

Also, has anyone managed to get a circular battery? Wanamlite seems to not be able to do this, I also would if possible like to disable the constant nag with low battery.
[Galaxy S6 General] afzalcool:
has any one fixed a bootloop device of samsung s6 dual

please help me sort out the problem
[Galaxy S6 General] tokarev7:
Before I did this, I already had by bootloader unlocked using C-ROM from the Galaxy Store.

The way I fixed my bootloop exactly was to flash TWRP, flash CF Auto Root using ODIN (where I got my bootloop), wipe dalvik/data/cache, then flash SuperSU Beta using TWRP.

If you still have a bootloop, wipe dalvik, data, and cache again. If that still doesn't work for you, you might have to flash stock rom using ODIN.

I used the latest HK variant on the latest stock firmware.

I used this: TWRP-2.8.7.1

Works on the HK 9200 model. The latest one, 2.8.7.2, strangely doesn't work.

I don't think CF Auto Root messes with your TWRP Recovery. CF Auto Root does give you a bootloop, but I got out of it by wiping dalvik, cache, and data, then flashing SuperSU beta and waiting a bit (v2.66, but v2.67 is out now).

I think you might need to flash both to root the HK model, CF Auto Root and SuperSU, that is.
