How do you got your TWRP touch working? I have successfully installed TWRP on my G9250 but the touch doesn't work :(

THANKS
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Hemant:
You have to install the root and twrp from the link i posted. XDA TWRP will have have touch issues. The chinese ones perfectly fine and you would have to find English theme for translation.

Deodex ROM

Hi, newbie here with my 1st post on this site.

happy that got myself a nice G9250, until I realized how ****ty it was when it comes to rooting and all, or perhaps I'm the one ****ty at it.

EIther way used the link to the chinese recovery in this thread to root, and now happy with the results.

Now, greedy that I may be, I want to install Xposed on my phone, but apparently, one need's a "deodexed ROM" to do that. Now most of the links I found on this site to deodexed roms said 920/925, so wondering if these be any good for me? Also is it possible for me to deodex the stock TouchWiz ROM currently installed on my phone.

Baseband: G9250ZTU2COKB

Kernel: 3.10.61-g4e76f00-dirty

anybody, please!?? :svetius::good:

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] elliwigy:
you cant simply deodex a rom on your phone.. you need to create a rom either by extracting from stock img or using a kitchen then once you have the odexed files you need to use a deodex tool or batch deodexer then flash the built rom.zip in a custom recovery or flashfire..

so its easier to find a deodexed rom for your device (surely theres some compatible ones) if you had a hard time simply rooting your device..

id look in the g925f thread and read ops carefully.. most will list devices it works on.. maybe look at xtrestolite, that rom typically supports lots of devices
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] iamnightfox:
thanks for the help buddy. but can you also please point me to a thread which can help me in how to deodex my rom? I downloaded stock ROM for my phone, and I will like to give it a try.

also since I mainly want a deodex rom so that I can use xposed but the ROM you pointed out (xtresolite), I believe doesn't support xposed.

I found a deodex ROM xda, here: http://xdaforums.com/gala...g9250-t3182578

my phone's currently rooted and on

Baseband: G9250ZTU2COKB

can I can flash that deodex ROM on my phone using the steps outlined in that thread? since it mentions BOGB, but I am on COKB??
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] croash:
You are realizing the same situation I have in recently rooting, then having very few options in regards suitable roms to install. If you pour back over this thread there's a link to roms for the g9250, but only on Chinese boards.

That's stopped me from going any further at this stage.

Certainly happy to get root and custom recovery installed but they're only half the fun.

Let me know if you do find something worthwhile for our KOGB and I'll do the same for you.

With so many S6 edge variants, it's not easy with the 9250.

Install Playstore without Root in SM-G9250 (S6 EDGE China Version)

User who are using Samsung Galaxy S6 EDGE China version (SM-G9250) and cannot use Google play store, Have a look here.

SM-G9250 is only available in China, Hong kong, and Taiwan. Only Taiwan Version comes with Google Play Store. So If you have SM-G9250 from china, Then Follow the process.

Download

1 SM-G9250 pit file

Flash The firmware with odin using the pit file.

Done..

Just a small point. Hong Kong Version also has Google Play. Same principles apply with HK firmware.

Hola, Dear all

My girlfriend (chinese) bought me this phone G9250, I had read the 50 pages of posts, and If you would allow me I would like to confirm some points before I start with the process of trying to flash gapps on my phone.

I have chinese 5.1.1 with build G9250ZCU2COJA

1) It is not possible to simply use ADB to flash google apps? In the case this is possible, please someone just point the steps please

2) Most accepted method: Flash version 5.0.2 of the HK Firmware, then update normally using OTA, steps descrived in this thread: 1st Unlock bootloader, 2nd Use ODIN to reflash HK FirmWare as explained in previous pages. This will NOT trip KNOX. I am Correct?

Thank you very much to everyone in this thread. Hope this clarifications will be not just useful for me but also for others.

Just wondering has anyone received the marshmallow update on G9250 (for the record I have the Hong Kong version with Google Services)?
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] OutOfPhase:
I got the "SW REV: CHECK FAIL, DEVICE 2, BINARY 1" error too. It means the version of bootloader on your device is 2, but the bootloader you want to flash is version 1. Apparently you cannot downgrade the bootloader.

The solution is to flash a more recent HK (or TW) firmware with also version 2 of the bootloader together with the (ZEROLTE_CHN_HKTW) PIT file (of the 5.0.2 file set). For example, I used the TGY-G9250ZTU2COJB firmware, but other more recent firmwares should work too.

As I find these chinese forums very difficult to work with, it would be great if you could update us when there is a MM G9250 out for the HK ver. The development and availability of MM by Samsung is very disappointing, and development of roms for our model is minimal. Please keep us in the loop.

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] tom0927:
I found a rooted kernel on the chinese sites - G9250-PC2-root-kernel.tar and flashed that in odin to root. For TWRP I flashed G9250-TWRP-ZCU2DPC2(0324).tar, which was TWRP v3.0.0.0 after I rooted.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] suddene:
Thanks very much tom0927 for the info. I have located the files necessary to root my hong kong 9250 on marshmallow 6.0.1 and just as you mentioned, all working great no issues and I got root, Supersu installed and twrp 3.

only minor issue was the TWRP defaulted to Chinese language but easily changed to English on the settings menu.

I put together the files I used that you mentioned into a zip and uploaded them for anyone else interested in doing the same.

I was a little sketchy at first because the packages were titled for PC2 build and my phone is PC5 ( MMB29K.G9250ZTU2DPC5) but flashed both in odin with no problems first time. not sure if it will work on other builds but anyone trying should be careful to note that.

so basically here is a general overview:

1. I put phone in download mode, then ran odin i flashed G9250-TWRP-ZCU2DPC2(0324).tar in odin 3.10.7.1 (included in package) as default didn't change any settings. got a green pass and it auto rebooted.

2 then I shut down and turned phone on into recovery mode, saw twrp 3 in Chinese, clicked settings then on the earth globe to change to English( screenshot in package)

3. rebooted back into download mode, flashed the kernel G9250-PC2-root-kernel.tar ( in package to download also) as default options in odin, green pass and it auto rebooted.

4. Didn't see Supersu anywhere so I downloaded a root checker app in play store and ran it. Surprisingly, it verified I was rooted, so I downloaded Super su from play store (in package also if needed ) and ran it. super su detected another supersu manager and offered to uninstall it, I said ok, then when done I ran a couple programs that require root and the super su pop up appeared asking to grant. all good and ready

here is all files necessary to achieve the root and recovery . thanks again for the info tom0927:

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] tom0927:
Thanks for packaging it up and writing up the detailed instructions. The root kernel is based off of the china version of the rom, which is why its the dp2 code. Just fyi, I have had success with using an older lollipop china based kernel through the various updates we had for lollipop, so this kernel should be good for another few firmware upgrades.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] croash:
Well, isnt it great to have some sction on the 9250 thread, and people contributing some great resources. Thanks everyone.

At present, my hk edition is rooted with custom kernel on 5.1.1. Thus, it wont upgrade to MM using OTA.

How do i get to the stage where i can use these zipped files? Just flash the stock hk MM firmware in odin? I assume I'd thus lose root, then use the zipped files to root and add TWRP again?

Thanks for any guidance from the experts.
[Galaxy S6 Edge General] tom0927:
Yup, that's exactly what I did croash. I downloaded the HK MM firmware from sammobile, and flashed it in Odin. Booted it up and all my apps/data was still there (but you should still backup assuming your data partition may be wiped) Then I flashed the root kernel, and then TWRP in odin.
