[MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION] here is the thread where it was first brought up, the no deep sleep issue. My S6 wasn't deep sleeping but I haven't had time to try to track down the actual cause. Going back to stock recovery does allow the device to deep sleep.

http://xdaforums.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6/general/guide-enable-deep-sleep-rooting-t3080833
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] bigbiff:
Unfortunately no-one has done any real technical depth inspection yet. Since recovery uses it's own kernel and OS I don't see how it would affect the Android boot kernel and how it selects when the system should go into deep sleep. This is determined by the kernel when to happen when applications are not running.

Are there any applications running according to the battery stats for a more than average of 5% of the time? Potentially off the top of my head, it could be one of any applications scanning for modified partitions by the samsung framework. I don't know since I don't have the phone and can only speculate.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] mikeyinid:
Well, I agree, and I just reinstalled twrp with flashify and immediately wiped cache. My S6 is deep sleeping just fine now.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] ledvedder:
I was having the same issue with deep sleep going away after flashing TWRP yesterday, so I went back to stock recovery and deep sleep came back.

This morning, I figured I'd try flashing TWRP again. But, this time I wiped the cache immediately after flashing. Now, it looks like I still have deep sleep.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MJFox78:
I guess you won't be able to flash twrp without rooting first
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Exel:
All you have to do is clear cache and you'll get deep sleep back, no need to go back to the stock recovery..

I'm rooted + TWRP and all I did was clear cache. My deep sleep is working 100%.

Anyone else having trouble flashing with Teamwin recovery? After I press flash it reboots into the recovery again without flashing. I have latest kernel/bootloader/modem and latest teamwin recovery as well. I did wipe before I tried to flash as well.

Hi, can you get the output of dmesg as well after you try to copy a file to the device over MTP?

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Wiseor:
Can we expect twrp to be available on other variants like att now that they have achieved root?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] paul8811:
Thanks i've been trying to avoid doing a full wipe but looks like it may be my only option

Edit - So ive flashed the singapore firmware & have no installed TWRP so i'm getting somewhere however....I still have deep sleep issue after flashing the mod. I am also not rooted and that now keeps failing when I try. I'm guessing the deep sleep fix doesn't work because its not rooted?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] guyd:
I don't think you can since the bootloader is still locked on the AT&T variant!

(Someone please correct me if I'm wrong)
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] aznkenshin:
I'd appreciate any help. I'm bricked in the "System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone." Here's what I did leading up to it:

1. Installed Ping Pong Root party_beta5.7z. Unzipped, installed, rooted.

2. Root Checker verified root!

3. Determined my my phone is: G920AUCU1AOCE.

4. Downloaded TWRP 2.8.6.2 through Flashify for Samsung Galaxy S6 (zeroflte).

5. Flashed it through Flashify

6. Bricked (light blue screen with text) and bootloop.

Help!

EDIT: Steps I've taken so far:

1. Download Odin Tar files from http://xdaforums.com/att-galaxy-s6/general/odin-tar-files-sm-g920a-t3103835

2. Connected phone to PC in download mode after installing USB drivers and ODIN 3.10.6

3. Put Firmware into AP.

Praying this will work...

EDIT2: No luck. It tells me "Can't open the serial(COM) port." I'm thinking it's the drivers fault? Looking into it...

EDIT3: Played dumb, took it to at&t store with a tech support center, and they re-flashed a clean install for me. Whew.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] freebee269:
[MENTION=2638973]bigbiff[/MENTION]

i tested twrp 2.8.6.2 to see if mtp in recovery was working and it still isnt. dont know if you had fixed it and that was the reason for the version bump or not. just wanted to give you a heads up.

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 AM ----------

i just tested this with twrp 2.8.6.2 and my backup is still in my twrp backup folder after i reboot system.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] Cygnuss:
Thats what i want to know, when i go to restore the backups just arent there....

Did you verify if there are any files in the directory location I mentioned earlier? Can you provide a long listing of the directory?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MistahBungle:
Sorry I didn't see your post earlier, been AWOL for few days.

OK. Steps I did:-

*Flash Singaporean firmware with Odin

*Flash that TWRP build with Odin

*Flash Wanam's mod (or whatever else you want to flash) with TWRP (recovery mode)

*????

*Profit !!

After step 3 you should have a rooted phone that sleeps like a 2yr old toddler who's been given 10mg of Promethazine. YMMV with other mods/roms though, haven't tried any.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] GrandMstrBud:
I wish I could get TWRP on my S6. The firmware version is G920IDVU1AOBQ and SM-G920i. I've tried via Odin, Flashify, manually via ADB, and even within the TWRP app. It appears to flash it but then it gets stuck on the Samsung logo and never boots up. I have to hold vol - and + with home and power to shut it of and then go back into download mode and flash back to the CF-Autoroot.tar image and then it's back to booting. The carrier has this all customized and the ROM really sucks so I would like a custom one before go to a last resort and send it back.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] paul8811:
Can you confirm what Wanam's mod is? Not just the deep sleep fix file?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] MistahBungle:
It's a 'generic modification for stock roms' that has its own kernel & a bunch of mods (I.E root/etc). It's hard to miss the thread for it given there's only 10 or so in S6 Android Development. I'm not telling you to flash it, flash whatever rom or 'mod' you want to run at 'step 3'.

Also, we should take discussion of other roms/mods elsewhere; this thread is for discussion of Biff's work (I.E TWRP)

I haven't needed to use the deep sleep fix so I can't tell you anything about it.

Hi. Nope, not this unfortunately. This looks compleltely different to the issue I had. One mine, the screen looked completely normal, but it was when you selected the touchscreen it selected a different area, but the display was the same. If that makes sense.
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] störte:
Hi

Can somebody tell me what makes it different that it is just for the s6?

There is a twrp for the s6edge but it does not support otg. As far as i know the hardware is the same. So it should work on the edge . Would be nice if somebody is so kind to explain me.

Thank you very much

hbhorat - AOD/Singaporean firmware linked in this post (downloadable from Sammobile). Can confirm TWRP works fine with AU Vodafone G920i if you flash this firmware first with Odin, then TWRP with Odin (then custom rom/'mod'/whatever after that if that's your thing...)

Please help, g920f stuck at boot with samsung logo

I tried to follow the instructions available online,

install the twrp app from play store, and let it download the latest twrp, and install it. Phone reboots, then stuck at Galaxy S6.

then I tried the follow:

install the Samsung usb driver, download odin and the latest twrp, reboot the machine to download mode, download the tar file via odin, then try to reboot, still stuck at Galaxy S6 page.

What shall I do? thank you in advance for your help!!!
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] hbhorat:
YAY. Thanks for the response and help guys it works perfectly

1) flashed the AOD firmware

2) flashed CF auto root

3) flashed TWRP

And it's all great. thanks again!

Hey man that's pretty much what happened to me, try going here http://cfautoroot.com/root/how-to-root-galaxy-s6-with-cf-auto-root-sm-g920f-sm-g920i-sm-g920t/

and flash cf-auto root via oden. From there your phone should be fine and you'll be able to boot up fine.

Then you can follow the three steps i did above ^ and you'll be able to flash twrp and it'll work fine
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] lyrebird:
Thank you for the quick info, but after follow the procedure given in that website, I still stuck at the boot logo.

It did not improve.

what else we can do about this? And I can't even turn off the deice! Will it deplete its battery and go completely dead?

By the way, how to get into recovery mode? Power + Home + Volumn down is for downloading mode, right?

Have I removed the OS?
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] hbhorat:
Make sure you're using the one that closely resembles your baseband number.

Otherwise I really don't know what to do. Because just reflashing it in odin worked for me. Use Power + Home + vol down for downloading mode. Recovery shouldn't work. You want to get into downloading mode and try flash the CF auto root. Or maybe even try flashing the stock firmware linked above. That should fix it
[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] lyrebird:
at current stage, I don't know what the baseband I have in my phone.

I can't turn it on, I can't turn it off. It has been stuck at boot stage for the past 10 hours. The only thing I can do is to get into the download mode.

Where I can find the G920F firmware, and how can I flash it through ODin?

Please help, thanks!

You can find Firmware on Sammobile.com.

You can use also Smart switch from Samsung. This is the "new" Kies . With that you can restore your firmware

To reboot the phone try power + vol down for 6 seconds.

[Galaxy S6 Original Android Development] waveryf:
You must flash and uncheck Auto reboot in Odin. Then restart your S6 in recovery with the key combo.

If your phone auto reboots, it will cancel the TWRP installation and reboot in stock recovery.

If you've already done this, then I don't know.

Good luck.
