Hey, a while back you uploaded an attachment of the /system/CSC folder from a stock VZW s6, but that attachment is gone. Could you upload it again somewhere and post me the link? Thanks. Sorry about your dog.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
where have you been? He stated in other thread he has he is leaving the Dev community for now and all his posts/threads/downloads have been completely removed (minus this thread) and do NOT pm him since he said he didn't want PM'S either.

the attachment is gone because he removed it himself basically
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bobbarker2:
Not reading every single post ever made, apparently.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Stevez48:
Tried to find this...to no avail. But this may be a dumb question , however.... what order does flashfire execute the processes? Look at the screen shot. Will it start at the top of the list (flash rom then wipe etc...) or will it start at the bottom and work up (reboot, wipe, rom, etc...) was having trouble finding that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
this is the way i flash
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] nrage23:
It works top to bottom. You can change the order by dragging the items around.

Thank you for covering my back. I do need to apologize to the entire community for deleting all my posts. I took the stresses from the last few months out in the wrong way and am truly sorry for that. I feel I let everyone down by not being a good example on how to handle things properly. I did want to step back from developing for a while but did it in the wrong way. Without rambling on about this anymore and explaining myself please accept my apology. I'm not sure how I can make it up to you all but I will try. Thanks.

Thnaks for reposting. No worries mate, do what you need to do to take care of yourself.

Hello, I am new and I think I messed up my S6.. I got root to work correctly and then I went and installed twrp manager and selected the .img and rebooted. now I can't get past the boot screen. it says " Custom binary blocked by Reactivation lock".

Any ideas, or am I screwed?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] brholt6:
We have a locked bootloader so TWRP won't work for us. You'll probably have to use Odin to get back to stock.

in the process of downloading that big file. I sure hope this works, very upset with myself. I knew the bootloader needed to be unlocked, but my mistake was thinking getting root would unlock it.

Thanks for posting that info, unlike a previous poster who just wanted to scold me. ;)

Hi! Thank you for sharing your experience!

Does it install any ROM? I am interested in install XtreStoLite Deodexed Mod Edition 1.2 ROM in my rooted S6 920V. Is it possible?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
We are limited to flashing only the ROMs in the VZW development section. Our locked bootloader limits us to modified stock ROMs only. Currently there are only three to choose from unless more developers jump on board and create ROMs.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Squintz:
Is there a tutorial for using FlashFire? Want to make sure I don't do anything to brick my phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Try the flashfire thread or the instructions built in the app.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Squintz:
So there are no special considerations for the VZW Galaxy S6?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Not that I'm aware of. I just select flash zip or OTA and wipe if I'm flashing a ROM and rearrange the flash order so it wipes first and then flashes the ROM. That's about as far as I have used it besides backup and restore witch works for me now.

EDIT: On a side note make sure you only flash VZW ROMs because you do not want to flash the kernel. You will most likely have to Odin back top stock if you do.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Misterxtc, has there been any progress on flashable firmware tars like there is for the S5? Be nice to go up and down with just using Flashfire.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I tried one the other day and it flashed with flashfire but I started getting random reboots like the memory leak bug. I'm not sure if it was from the flash or bug but I didn't get any reboots before flashing it. I just Odined back to stock so I'll have to see what happens. I accidentally deleted the flashable firmware file but I can make another if anyone wants to give it a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
I'd like a copy.

Haven't heard of the memory leak bug.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Here are the files but flash them at your own risk. At worst you will have to Odin back to stock and reroot. Flash them with flashfire using the flash firmware package and you should be good. Just use the proper firmware for the ROM you are on or going to. I'm not sure how well it will work when switching ROMs. You can try to flash them with Odin but I didn't have any luck that way. Give it a couple days and let me know if you get any reboots. Good luck.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Thank you sir! I have some stuff I need to copy off first then I'll give this a try.

Edit: Doesn't work for switching firmwares and ROM at the same time like it does for the S5. Hangs at the Galaxy S6 black and white screen.

When I get home from work I will Odin back to OC3, reroot, and flash the OE2 and see if I get those random reboots.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Thanks for trying, I thought it wouldn't work too good switching firmware with flashfire. I just had success flashing the firmware with Odin. With flashfire I wiped, installed the ROM and then the firmware. It got stuck at the Samsung lock screen as you said but I rebooted into download mode and was able to flash the proper firmware. The phone is up and running so it worked, the next question is will it reboot as before... Time will tell. So wipe and flash the ROM with flashfire and then reboot to download mode and flash the firmware with Odin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
So, it doesn't work with either Flashfire or Odin on their own but a combination of the two. So in flashfire you should select reboot to download mode instead of just reboot normal I guess.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Yes, the ROM with flashfire and firmware with Odin in that order. If flashfire has the option to select reboot to download mode do that. Otherwise let it reboot and then hold the volume down, home and power keys to reboot to download mode.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Yes Flashfire has a reboot to download mode. Messing around with the deodex systemui from Gunthermic's ROM trying to get the 3minit battery to work and messed it up. Had to start over but your method works perfectly. I got the 3minit battery to work on my second try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Great that's awesome news, my phone has been good so far too. It's great to hear the battery mod works. I haven't had much time to mess around lately with mods.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Misterxtc, I know this isn't the place but could I ask you a quick question? After recompiling the systemiu.apk do you copy back over the meta-inf and android manifest files or do you copy the resources.arsc file too? Trying to track down a problem where my systemui fc's after a full charge occurs. I did some other changes too though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Copy the META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml and you should be good to go. That will properly sign the apk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
happened again. Its fine until it is left on the charger too long.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
That's strange. I have no idea what would do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
Went back into apktool. Used the android manifest and meta-inf from the "original" folder and all is good. Before I extracted those from the original apk manually. All is now good! Liking having a battery mod again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] arf8:
Can you backup using Flashfire than restore the backup using the latest Desktop PC Odin?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Tulsadiver:
I did a restore that I had backed up via Flashfire onto an external SanDisk thumb drive. One that plugs directly into an android phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] arf8:
That is great but my question is can you restore a Flashfire backup, using Odin desktop software? Doesn't the flashfire backup store as a different file extension without a checksum, not sure if Odin would be happy with the file.

thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] jasonsf:
I just tried doing a backup and the phone reboots. Did you do anything special to get this to work?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Nope, just make sure you are on the same firmware you backed up from. Mine did the same as yours when I tried going from one firmware to another.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] GoBears:
If I backup my ROM that I'm currently using on a 32GB S6 will I be able to restore that backup on a 64GB model even though some partitions might be sized different?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Honestly I'm not sure, give it a try. I'm thinking it might not flash because of the checks. At worst you will have to Odin back to stock witch isn't a big deal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] GoBears:
Well I got my 64GB and the backup flashed perfectly. The only issue I can find is that under storage it still says 32GB. It says there's over 48GB available so I'm thinking it might not matter but it just bothers me haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
mught be a simple edit.. you check the build prop?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] GoBears:
Yeah I hunted around for about a half hour and couldn't find anything so I just ended up clean flashing. Thank God for root and TBU. Makes it so much easier lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] jasonsf:
Still can't backup. Whichever partitions I try to backup, the screen goes black and the phone reboots. No backups created.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] gs6:
Could someone kindly post an apk for FlashFire? I'm a non Google+ user and would greatly appreciate being able to use the app.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] anewday:
For some reason, I don't have Advanced Calling toggle on/off even though it's enabled on my account. I'm thinking of wiping the cache. Which options are safe to enable in WIPE without messing up the rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] gs6:
You do have to use G+. It is asking to set up a G+ profile. Not the same as just having a Google account.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
i just pressed option to use google account and it signed me right in and i could dl the apk..

after you do whatever is necessary you no longer have to ever use g+ again.. thats all i meant.. its quite easy and once set up its a breeze and ive dled it probably 50 times or more sunce its been out within seconds each time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] dunelly:
So with this you don't need pingpong root?im a newb sorry

http://htconeroot.com/htc-one-root/how-to-root-htc-one-windowsmaclinux/

Not sure what you mean when you say "attach in recovery mode". Here's the basic process to fully customizing your phone:

0) backup all photos and app data to a computer

1) HTC Unlock

2)fastboot flash a custom recovery like TWRP

3) backup current setup

4) flash SuperSU from recovery OR wipe then flash ROM from recovery

At which step are you stuck?

I don't understand what it means
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] sauprankul:
oh shoot, my bad, you meant unlock SIM. Yeah, I know nothing about that.

But you can find quite a few Deodexed roms around here if the procedure for one requires that. Just check in the android development section.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamuraiJackJr:
I bought my shield tablet with 4.4 and quickly rooted it using TowelRoot last year. All was well until 5.0 was pushed to my tablet earlier this year - suddenly root no longer worked AND I could no longer get OTA updates (many threads on this forum about that). I was unsuccessful in searching for this, so just wanted to share that I was able to successfully "reset to factory data" in the settings which removed the roadblock to getting OTA updates.

1) It took a long time. I thought I had bricked the device and had seen other posts where folks did. However, that did not happen (thankfully) and it even recovered when I forced a shut down. Be patient.

2) I was not successful in getting the google backup services to work. I turned it on, but it did not work for me. I suspect I missed a step. I was able to use Ultimate Backup which did not require root and allowed be to save to the cloud.

3) When it finished the reset, it came back in version 5.0. I was apprehensive about this at first; however, the OTA updates were all successful and all is well.

I do not know that I will root again, though I suspect I will eventually get frustrated with anything blocking me from writing to my external SD card. Hopefully this will help someone else.
[Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
You can write on your external SD without root, I had the same issue but if you connect your SD and give it a name (Like "SD Card" or whatever) it works fine, some crashes and random annoying stuff you might get otherwise goes away, after that I could cut/copy/paste stuff freely between internal and external storage, but deleting files directly from an app still might not work if files are on the external. For example I use MX Player to watch videos but it won't let me delete them if they're written on the external SD, I have to go to ES and delete them from there after I'm done. I am running Lollipop, just rooted but just to get an Adblocker and maybe use a non-Nvidia controller wirelessly.

Best of luck pal!

Tried restarting again but still i cabt get into recovery. I tried flashing stock kitkat firmware but still nothing. Factory reset and sril no avail. Is there a way to install a recovery without root? Im currently on lollipop 5.0.2. Thanks
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demon148:
From what I have gathered on my learning of rooting and recovering, that unless your phone is Samsung or one that comes with a stock recovery option, then the phone must be rooted in order to use one.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bornnslippy:
Sorry im a bit of a Noob and was wondering what benefit i would get from being S-Off

To be honest 25 for sunshine to get S-Off is a bit extreme but thats why im asking the question, im not here to start moaning about the cost, if i find that s-off is worth it i will get it.

Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lofty5:
What may be worth doing is rooting the phone and purchasing sunshine if and when soff is needed to restore the tamper flag in the bootloader for warranty purposes. If you dont need to send it back dont bother paying for soff. Obviously if you want soff for other reasons then its worth it but only you would know this. Personally were both **** out of luck as its the only method to gain soff on the latest m8's. I will more than likely be getting it as i want root only but to have son bl locked and tamper flags removed whilst retaining root. For this reason alone its worth it to me but i hear ya. Still not to happy about paying it but theres no other choice atm unfortunately.

Im still not happy the bootloader has to be unlocked just to gain root. Ive always rooted my phones whilst keeping everything else stock, but again its tough **** until devs find an exploit, if they are even searching for one, who knows.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xunholyx:
The best part of S-Off for me is that I can always be running the newest firmware, and therefore the newest ROMs. I never have to wait for my carrier to update (for example AT&T just got Lollipop a few weeks ago but S-Off users updated in January with WWE firmware)
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
This ^^^^

I got s-off in the beginning. So I've never had to worry about official updates, or finding firmware for my exact model (which is Telus... So harder to find). I did SuperCID, so I can flash firmware anytime, even downgrade firmware. I can use new roms, or old roms... Covert to GPE if I wanted... Etc.

Do you need it to fully enjoy the phone? No. But if you like having total control... Then yes you do.

$25 wasn't a big deal for me, for complete freedom. :good:
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sjpritch25:
It depends where you live, what carrier your on, & if you want to tinker with your phone. I'm in the US, on Verizon, & want to stay up to date on firmwire & the latest android. Finally, I want full access to my device, so that's why I paid $25 no question !!!!!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bornnslippy:
Last thing does s-off void your warranty

Thanks
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Darth:
Not exactly. But unlocking your bootloader technically does. But with s-off, you can reverse everything you've done, including the red tampered banner, and return your device to its stock state.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redpoint73:
And specifically

what

you want to tinker with. But otherwise I agree.

If you own a version that gets relatively quickly updated (GPE, Dev Edition, many WWE versions) its probably not that necessary. But on AT&T for instance, we had to wait a few months (after other variants) to get the "official" 4.4.4 and 5.0 firmwares (hboot, radio, etc.). Meaning we couldn't properly run most custom ROMs for a while without s-off.

I did s-off when I got the phone about a year ago. So I've fortunately never had such limitations. I've been running LP since January, where folks on AT&T with s-on had to wait until April for the proper firmware.

Plus, with s-off you can flash modified hboots, manually flash different radios, and "fully convert" to other versions (other CIDs, of Google Play Edition).
