Cant get this to work.

Stock TW updated to G920IDVU1AOC4_G920IXSA1AOC4_XSA from Sammobile.

Odin 3.10.6 used to flash CF-Root. No problems. USB Debugging enabled.

Using http://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/

Flashify the TWRP.img - Freezes on bootup with the S6 logo.

Odin the .tar file - Freezes on bootup with the S6 logo.

Tried various TWRP images like the post in Post #291 S6 boot screen still frozen.

Im running a G920I Galaxy S6.

Any thoughts?

For 920i users, the only way to install twrp recovery in my particular case is using twrp 920f and works perfect, just extracted and use Odin 3.10.6 in ap and enjoy

I had the same problem, so I updated to thr latest firmware I think its AOD1, then I could flash twrp followed by installing latest version of super su.zip for root through recovery (Odin flashing cwm soft bricks device).

Then you have to get back deep sleep so you flash stock recovery with flshify and then reboot and then flash twrp with flashify.

Hopefully after that's been done you should have root and twrp with deep sleep working again
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] lysaer:
I'd be happy to help and do some testing

Twrp doesnt work on AOC4, just update your firmware and take if needed one from another region. Once on AODx it is gonna work.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Stock Android will reflash stock recovery if you don't boot TWRPfirst to rename the stock recovery image in system so it won't do that

I noticed my phone becomes uncomfortably hot when backing up with compression. Usually it'll jump to ~90C and hold until the backup finishes. Without compression enabled, it'll jump to 80C. 90C is very warm for a mobile device, and probably isn't safe when repeated often. I'm not saying I'm backing up every day, I was just wondering if anyone knew what the cause was? My N5 never went above 75C during backups.

Just choose the one that has the carrier listed as New Zealand. Extract it, flash it with ODIN, load it, flash TWRP! I got my phone via Telstra. Enjoy!

OTG-USB Storage - Mount in TWRP?

I have a Tmobile Galaxy S6 - I purchased an OTG-USB Storage to use for backup storage for my S6 - someone I know told me that they are able to connect their NOTE 4 to a OTG-USB Storage device and use it with TWRP for creating and storing Nandroids or to flash roms from - giving a more integrated back up system than I have been able to do.

When I look in TWRP File Manager - I can see the OTG USB storate device - I can even see it in MOUNTS - and in the main area of TWRP where you choose the storage you want to use for your current back up or to flash a rom from.

However, I am unable to mount the OTG USB Device on my S6 - when I click to select it - nothing happens - my friend did mount hers on her NOTE 4 - so I am wondering if it is something in the phone itself or in TWRP that is making this possible?

If it is the later - is it possible that the S6 twrp can be upgraded to include this?

It is the next best thing to having an Ext SD card - and would at least expand the storage capability to whatever size of storage you connect to the OTG device. (I have a 64GB USB storage device connected which would effectively double my total storage space) in a working situation.

Is this a pipe dream or within the realm of possiblity?

THanks in advance for your response.

Currently TWRP relies on thermal management from the kernel. I guess Samsung isn't using thermal management in there s6 kernels. Can you change your governor to conservative and see if that helps with CPU temperature from the adb shell CLI?

I can't do anything - I insert my OTG and nothing changes - no pop ups or anything - none of the menu icons work at all - phone is unresponsive - frozen - the only way to back out is to three finger to download and install working twrp image tar in ODIN -

Let me know what I sholud try?

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] mocsab:
Sorry - no I could not - I couldn't get the phone to recognize that I was connected - I tried this earlier today and meant to tell you when I posted my last results - I tried again - and now I cannot get to the TWRP home screen at all - it sits on White Samsung Logo on Black Background and will not go into recovery mode....the only thing I can do now is get back to download mode -

Its almost as if there is no recovery installed -

When I flash a normal TWRP image in odin - when I click reboot in twp after installation my phone boots first into recovery - then I just reboot to start the phone.

BUt when I flash this text twrp image - the first boot I get is to the phone. It will not recognize a three finger reboot - nothing happens - the only way I can get try to get to recovery is by using Quick Reboot Apk - and then it just boots to the whilte samsung on black screen

I wish I could do more.....

you asked me for dmesg output and unfortunately that is a little over my head. I googled it to see what steps to follow (I assume this has to be pulled via adb?) but I can't find commands that I need to enter to make it happen.

sorry - I know enough to be dangerous - if you can point me where I can find instructions (detailed) that would be helpful.

Also - I have never used an OTG device before and I want to make sure I am using the correct type of OTG device to try this - I purchased one from Amazon - is it safe to assume that any device sold as an OTG-USB device will work for this or is there a special kind that needs to be used?

this is the OTG device that I bought - Micro USB OTG

Working version of TWRP for G9200 Dual sim version

After a lot of messing around and testing both the beta's uploaded from the previous pages and both the 2.8.6.0 and 2.8.6.1 (I tested the normal S6 and the sprint versions) versions from the official site it still left the screen unable to detect any touching input. I ended up searching on the chinese forums and found a modded version of the 2.8.6.0 that works. The only problem is that it is chinese but everything works. It would be nice if the dev can see what they fixed in the img to make it work for the G9200 dual sim version.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/45rbcc0jhmuqu2h/G9200-TWRP-2.8.6.0-CN(0421).img?dl=0

The file is 27.8MB and the attachments on the forums can only go up to 8MB so I uploaded it on my dropbox.

I'll also upload the recovery.img file extracted from the newest rom G9200ZHU1AOD9_G9200ZZH1AOD9_G9200ZHU1AOD9_HOME.tar

https://www.dropbox.com/s/a9p2g5f3ynjmpun/recovery.img?dl=0

Simply

1) flash the new rom with odin

2)flash the old CF-autoroot (it works)

3)use flashfy and flash the recovery.img

4)erase the cache 2 times

5)boot back into flashfy and flash the chinese twrp

6)enjoy the new rom with full root and no deep sleep issues.

You need to run adb shell "twrp set tw_mtp_debug 1"

then in the mount page disable and re-enable mtp. Perform your operations for mtp and pull /tmp/recovery.log and post it here as an attachment.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Yeah I ended up downloading it myself last night. So far I did notice differences in some panel drivers in defconfig which may be causing issues.

I had to redownload the 925F Edge for myself from sammobile. I have it at home on my laptop but I was called into work last night and didn't have time to work on it. I will see if all the values for where the files are stored in ramdisk haven't changed and put up a test with prebuilt kernel from the firmware. When that works we can start trying to use the custom kernel.

If anyone is having deep sleep issues and is technical, please join us in #twrp to figure out why.
