This thread is the most recent resource I'm aware of. Again, the 64x is the current hangup though so some hurdles need yet to be cleared. But there is still useful info in there as it pertains to 5.x Xposed so maybe you'll be the guy to make it happen. By all means no hurry, we're all on the front end of this thing right now anyway. :)

Also, congrats on the new pup. I had a rough time much like yourself recently re: the long time family pet. Glad to hear things are back on the upswing. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] BRM_VMS:
Hello!

Does this rom have a Brazilian Portuguese language?

When you guys say that the rom tripped Knox, means that the fingerprint scanner should work or not?

:confused:

The Fingerprint Scanner still working on this rom?

Thanks for all and sorry about my simple doubts! I'm newbie...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bkeaver:
Attached is a screenshots of the languages, also fingerprint scanner works well.

Can you flash this ROM on the s6 edge?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bkeaver:
No
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
Can I flash this over clean rom, or is it best to odin flash stock re root then flash fire ricks rom? Thanks

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] brholt6:
I would assume if you wipe correctly in flash fire you wouldn't be flashing this over clean rom. Flash fire wipes the system just like TWRP would.

This will make that dialog box go away. It will appear one last time and that's it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
decided to see what was goin on and noticed your rom! glad to see you didnt completely disappear!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Thanks man, I can't stay away completely but I'm pressed for time these days. I'm tied up in training and keeping a close eye on my new puppy for the next few months. I spurted out this ROM and a couple days later we got Jasmine. She's a pure bread German Shepherd :D

awesome! Looks like a very happy/healthy puppy!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] brholt6:
Is she a rescue?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
No, I tried there first but had no luck. The breeder I bought my last from had one left so I bought her.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] droidiac13:
She's beautiful!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] chrisj22:
So right after I initially installed flash fire I did a full backup of current ROM is that basically my "recovery" if things go wrong?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
not necessarily.. in order to flash a backup you need to be able to get into the rom/flashfire to do the restore option.

so i create a backup and move to pc so if i have to odin back i just root and install ff then move backup to phone and restore..

basically, if you cant get back into rom and ff, then the restore will not work.. so if you are stuck in a boot loop then its a bit tedious but backup will save you time for sure if its needed
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] chrisj22:
I've noticed you can't change alarm tones
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
If you open up the alarm widget you can. Samsung must have removed it from the settings menu.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
agreed.. i always changed it within the clock app lol. i like to set two alarms in the AM.. a less annoying one followed by a crazy one in case forst one doesnt wake me up haha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] chrisj22:
Just did some benchmarks with this after it settled in and I'm very impressed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
thats ricks rom for you lol. i know if i am not on my own rom im on ricks (when i had my s5)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bracketslash:
Does anyone have any comments about battery life on this ROM? :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] chrisj22:
This might be a fluke I don't normally get this good but I'll try it again and see.

I was amazed (with very minimal use) after this rom settled in and greenifyed...24 hours and still %40 on my battery

Sent from my SM-G920V
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bracketslash:
By very minimal use, what did you do? Much of anything? Wi-Fi on?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
WiFi on yes but set to turn off while in standby and not search for other WiFi signals, a couple of text messages, a short duration phone call, and occasional quick Web browse...I have every app I never use "in the freezer" via TB and everything else greenifyed....

Here is mine from earlier today. I get about two to three days between charges. On the average I get around 5 hours of screen time draining the battery down. I only turn WiFi and data on as needed.

So I tried to flash this using the latest Flashfire that came out today, when I did, I got stuck at the Galaxy S6 Custom boot screen. I let it sit for about 20 minutes then tried to reset it. Went to recover, rebooted the phone, it went to a teal blue android screen, and I have the option to update via adb, cache, or external. Phone seems bricked. Any idea what I can do here?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Ironkidz:
Thanks. Yeah, I tried that, but the ID:COM wont recognize the phone. I tried all my USB ports that work with my other phones but cant get this one to be recognized. I can get into the download mode, bootloader, and into recovery but nothing works.

**Edit** Got working by installing Smart Switch.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] chrisj22:
Is Wi-Fi Direct something I need? I was fine tuning the ROM with TiBu and getting rid of apps I don't need
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] gsi30:
New phohe

So I got new phone today s6 verizon. Phone has dropped calls even before I rooted it. It will will go from 4g to 3g sitting in same spot. Updated all app and still doing it but not all the time. Rooted it and installed Ricks Rom and it will still go from 4g to 3g is there something I need to update or do you think it is the phone? If I reboot phone it goes back to 4g every time. I don't think it is Ricks Rom just posted here because I have Rom installed. I have ran his rims on other phones and LOVED THEM. If I want to go back to stock do I just need do wipe in flash fire?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
You could try to Odin back to stock or it could possibly be a sim card issue. I kind of doubt it being the sim card because it's most likely a new one. If you Odin back to stock try the OE2 tar, it's the newest and can be rooted using pingpong and the download data option. I'm working on a OE2 ROM, I have it installed but need to add wifi tether and remove the CD installer. On that note if anyone wants to try it I'll be more than happy to upload it but the mods will have to be added separate after they are available.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Alucardis666:
So if I'm on this and want to try one of the new OE2 based Roms, what's the process?

Can I just flash one of those without issues? I've noticed some Roms say you already need to be on OE2 already before flashing... Thoughts?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I have been busy all this weekend and it slipped my mind. I have been running a odex version and it's been good so far. My problem is I can't do any mods as of yet because I'm having problems compiling the apk files for whatever reason and haven't been able to figure what is giving me the problem. Therefore any mods that I can't include will have to be flashed separate for now. I don't intend to ad much for mods other than the tether hack and removed cd installer anyways as all my other ROMs were. I prefer a simple ROM with just a few mods. I might upload what I have later today.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Sorry I totally missed your question. You will have to Odin the stock OE2 tar, root and install flashfire. Then you can flash a OE2 ROM. I might be able to make a flashable firmware package in a few but I'm not positive it will work on our phones. I will give it a shot.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Alucardis666:
Awesome! I appreciate it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
i kno this post was from the 8th but fyi trailblazer made one for s6e that works.. id imagine both devices use same kernel/modem?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I have some firmware files here to try. You will need to wipe and flash the ROM with flashfire and then reboot to download mode and flash the firmware with Odin. They will not flash properly with flashfire, you will bootloop.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I added the OE2 build of Rick's ROM. I am unable to add the remove CD installer mod at this time. I've been having problems compiling apks so any other mods will be on hold until I can resolve the problem here. You will need to flash the OE2 firmware via Odin after you flash the ROM with flashfire if you are currently on OC3. The changes are minor but here they are...

Added OE2 build 1, same mods minus the removed CD installer.

Changed lockscreen for a tribute to my late dog Raven
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] ikenvape:
I'm sorry for your loss man. It's never easy.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Thank you, it's been a rough month after and about 6 before but I'm definitely OK. Things are looking up and I'm bonding with my new pup. :) That's where my spare time is being spent lately.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stay-down:
Roaming the GS6 threads because I want to root and ROM my spare s6, and just love that a scripture was thrown in the screenshots. It is the lockscreen but its awesome. God bless
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] ikenvape:
That's wonderful to hear! Loss of family members is never simple to deal with. Just keep staying strong. Because if they are looking down on us. It would be hell for them to see us miserable knowing nothing can be done. Much love to you two. :good:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Thank you, that lockscreen is only in the OC3 version for now. The OE2 was changed to my late dog for now. If you want to change it back I have attached the pic for you. You can either copy it to the system/wallpaper folder and replace the one there or just copy it to storage. God bless you too.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAtheistReverend:
First I'd like to say thank you for the ROM! Runs smooth as snot. Loving it!

Unfortunately, since flashing I have been unable to use wireless charging. Is there anything within some setting that could have turned this capability off? Right after flashing this, neither off my wireless chargers will induce any change in my phone. It's like it's not even there.

:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] bkeaver:
I don't see how this could possibly be rom related, that a hardware feature not software
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
It works fine on my phone, nothing has been removed to affect that. I would have to agree with [MENTION=377737]bkeaver[/MENTION] with it being hardware and not software. If all else fails try a factory data reset to see if it fixes it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAtheistReverend:
Tried the factory reset. Was really grasping at straws, I know. Just can't accept that I would have that bad luck.

Bummer. Thanks for the replies.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
If you haven't already Odin back to stock just to be sure. I'm just very thankful I haven't had the problems others have had with this phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAtheistReverend:
If I ODIN back to stock, will it close the padlock on the splash screen? I might try to get it replaced if it will.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Yes it will. Use the OC3 because it will wipe the phone clean where the OE2 dose not. It might take a reboot or two for the padlock to go back to normal but it will.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] snake2332:
Sweet rom.

I suggest changing the lame bible excerpt lock-screen wallpaper though. Not only is it terrible as a wallpaper, but it's a bible except and that's terrible enough by itself.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Really? You are the first to complain. It's very rude to bash someone for sharing their work for free. If it bothers you that much you can change it or download the OE2 ROM that has a different one but I will not remove it in future builds. I'm glad you like the ROM but I'm not pleased with your lame comment.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheBigBentley:
Not cool, man.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAtheistReverend:
Yeah, you're outta line. If you don't like it, don't use it.

I'm atheist and still respect others beliefs and appreciate the effort put into their work. You've got nerve bashing free work put out for your benefit. And for what, a wallpaper that you can change easier than changing the toilet paper roll?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
lol really? i dont like your lame comment.

its not hard at all to change the wallpaper.. why make rude comments like that at all?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Gunthermic:
Please, folks chill. Let the OP handle it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAtheistReverend:
I am seeing an update pop-up after installing OE2, did I flash the latest version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
It's most likely a Samsung update. I removed the OTA updater but not Samsung updates. It shouldn't hurt anything.

Hey Misterxtc,

what happened to the G900V version of this ROM? I had loved it, but it just...

dissapeared.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
to my knowledge he move on to a better device (the g920v.) He might have deleted it when he took a break and now its lost?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Lightn1ng:
I still have the file... wondering if Misterxtc would let me upload it?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
I soft bricked my phone last night......I tried multiple times to flash back to stock with odin and the 0c3.md5.tar. It took me an hour to figure out that my phone did not like the usb port I was using :(. Good news though, I'm rooted and back on this ROM(OC3 1.0). Thanks for all the hard work. Praying didn't hurt either, but man was I irritated!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
I flashed the modem from OE2 on the OC3 build. Everything is fine so far....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
is there any noticeable improvements?

the issue isnt with using modem its with the BL/kernel and the updated rom itself..

for some reason i have issues when i tried oc3 modem on oe2 so surprised of1 modem works on oe2..

if its not noticeable then i dont even want to bother lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
-110 /-115 dBm compared to 120's dBm on oc3 and oe2 on 4g lte. Less switching between 1x, 3g and 4g lte.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
mine is -99 in my bathroom lol.. dont think dbm is a good fact since it is simply signal strength and varies by your reception
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
ok simpler answer, lol..... 2-3 bars (now) compared to 1 ( before of1 modem) in the house. I I live in a marginal 4g area, so for me that's good. :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
so reception seems better for you with the of1 modem
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
yes, in general, overall
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
can this of1 modem be OK to flash on the oe2 deodexed rom?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
ok for me so far.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
I could be wrong but I thought ricks rom is odex...just wondered when flashing modems if it mattered if the rom is odex or deodexed...I get 1-2 bars normally sometimes none and like better signal.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I'm not sure but the modem is here to flash with Flashfire. Only try this file and DO NOT flash the full tar or you will loose root. I haven't tried just the modem because I already lost root with my other S6 and it is costing me a few bucks now. I'm not positive if the OE2 modem can be flashed back after this either so do it at your own risk.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Are you able to flash the OE2 modem back?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
Disclaimer:

Do not flash of1 modem either, unless you want to be stuck with it like me. :S .

At least the phone is still rooted
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
Thank you for the help!

I too am grateful for all your hard work and sharing with us, thank you sir! [emoji41]
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
Won't work even with odin. Had to pop the of1 modem into the OE2 firmware tar.md5 and use odin to get phone back up. Not recommended to flash until a root solution is found.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
Good to know!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I'll make a true OE2 modem flashable with Odin and see if that works.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
Thanks, I will be the guinea pig later if you post it here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Here you go. It's just the OE2 modem. Unzip it and flash with Odin. Flashfire might work but I would try Odin.

thanks for trying...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Dang Verizon!!!

That sucks. It looks like Verizon really screwed us this time with the updates. Probably be stuck on 5.0.1 if we want root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
Thanks for the heads up sir...very good to know!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] DeathAngel66669:
I took the risk, my fault, lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
At least you still have root so far. Just don't flash the full tar if you don't have to. I lost it totally trying to flash a firmware upgrade. Now I have the option to sell it for a few hundred dollar loss and keep the new one I have or just deal with no root and get my money back. Either way I put my old one on Swappa to see what happens. I guess you gotta pay to play.

EDIT: I canceled the listing and am returning the new one. It's just not worth it with all the games Verizon is playing!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] stealyourface1:
Now we know tho...at least it's a better signal than the OE2 modem? (to look on the brighter side)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] anewday:
What do you mean by remove tether checks? Does it simply mean that you are able to tether without subscribing a plan and/or block Verizon from noticing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] elliwigy:
technically you need to pay for tethering but when you remove tether checks it bypasses and allows ut to function without checking if you have it.

not sure if its the same but before you could change the tether provisioning apk or some other mod where it just removes the check or redirects it
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I'm closing this thread because I will not be updating the ROM anymore. I sold my S6 today and will not be buying another. It's back to my Note4 possibly until the Note 5 comes out. Between replacing the device after loosing root and selling a couple I've lost quite a bit of money. It's just not worth it to me. The files will remain on the OP. Thanks for everyone's support.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KonowaL:
Hello guys, my friend was installing some ROMs (jumping from one to other) and he probably accidentally installed wrong ROM.

System loading is in bootloop and then it came to empty battery. Connecting charger to wall charger first shows red LED light.

Then, when red LED disappears, phone immediately starts appearing SONY logo, then XPERIA logo and loading system that can't be loaded because system is in bootloop (since it is wrong ROM) and battery is too low for it (phone is in bootloop max 15 seconds). Phone start itselfs!

That's not even enough to install drivers in Win 7. Power + Vol+ does nothing. Holding Vol- and connecting USB to PC does nothing. I wanted to flash stock ROM via Flash Tool but I can't boot phone in Flash Mode. I am holding back key at phone and plugging USB cable but It does nothing except "trying" to install drivers that cannot be finished because phone is shutting down too fast.

Xperia Sola
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] KonowaL:
Okay, got enough time to flash custom kernel via fastboot. Flashing went successful and kernel works. But something is still wrong.

If there is enough battery, kernel should boot up to show battery charging screen.

My screen shows SONY logo with blue "Custom" text, then XPERIA logo and then it boots system that can't be booted without enough battery.

Why didn't kernel start battery charging screen after charging enough to boot kernel?
[LG G Watch R] Breadcrust:
This thread will explain how to install Android 5.1.1 update on the LG G Watch R.

*NOTE* I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE YOU MAY CAUSE TO YOUR DEVICE AND ANYTHING DONE THAT IS SPECIFIED IN THIS GUIDE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND YOU THE END USER TAKE FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR BRICKED, DEAD AND BROKEN DEVICES THAT COULD HAVE BEEN A RESULT OF THIS GUIDE*

*EDIT* This guide is like an OTA update and does NOT remove any app data. So no need to do "Forget phone" and re-pair!

NEEDED:

Android SDK Platform Tools - Fastboot and ADB (Can be obtained by downloading the Android SDK from Google)

Step 1:

The first step is to download to G Watch R System Images from Android File Host, download System, Boot, and Recovery (BELOW)

Android File Host - LG G Watch R System Images 5.1.1

-

DOWNLOAD LINK

Step 2: Reboot into bootloader mode this can be done by turning the watch off and then swiping from the top left down diagonally while on the LG splash screen

Step 3: Open command prompt as Administrator and navigate

to the platform-tools folder in the Android SDK

cd c:\*root*\androidsdk\platform-tools

changing the appropriate paths.

Type

fastboot devices

You should see your device appear on this list if not then search for installing fastboot/adb drivers

Step 4: Extract the files in the gwr_5.1.1_flash_files.zip into the platform-tools folder

Step 4.5: If not done already the bootloader will need to be unlocked, do this by typing

fastboot oem unlock

In boot loader/fast boot mode (Credit to Moopile for missed step)

Step 5: While in bootloader mode type

fastboot flash system system_gwr_5.1.1.img

The .img is important as fastboot won't find it otherwise

fastboot flash *system* *system_gwr_5.1.1*

When this has completed repeat for each file changing the asterisked areas to recovery and boot while corresponding to the file name.

Step 6: Type

fastboot reboot

CONGRATULATIONS YOU SHOULD BE ON ANDROID WEAR 5.1.1!
