[MENTION=1970075]te_quiero_forever_girl[/MENTION]

And can OP make a video demonstration? I flash TWRP with your instructions and the device would not boot! It is stuck at the S6 logo screen with "Recovery seandroid not enforcing

---------- Post added at 10:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:45 PM ----------

I can't actually record it if the device i try to use my galaxy s6 for camera recording will be used in the video, I suggest flashing TWRP 2.8.1 after you flash the stock rom
[Galaxy S6 General] te_quiero_forever_girl:
Thanks for the reply. I managed to successfully flashed it via Odin with 1 crucial key: you have to reboot straight into recovery manually, or the stock Rom will try to override TWRP and thus, getting the phone stuck at the s6 logo screen. Thanks for the help still!
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
For some reason this method worked for me first try, I'm glad you got it to work
[Galaxy S6 General] Galaxy05:
I have follow this Guide 100%.

Now its rooted and so on!..

But sometimes a pop-up comes up "The operating system on your device has been modified in an unauthorised way" ...

Can this be Fixed, or is that normal by this way of root?
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
I got rid of that by freezing securitylogagent and all Knox services using Titanium Backup
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
Use an app to remove the system app causing the notification, It is normal.

Hello, how can I see if my bootloader unlocked or locked on S6?

I have no option under the developer option "Oem Unlocked enabled".. What it means?

If the bootloader is locked if there is a possibility to unlock?

Tnx

Will it Root the G920F?
[Galaxy S6 General] marsen2567:
Yup, the custom kernel will set SE Linux to permissive, it will prevent the private mode functionality..

I don't know if it will bring your documents back but XtreStoLite Odex Aroma Add On Pure Edition has a modded Private Mode to get it working again.

Hello i have a galaxy core prime G361 and it comes with android 5.1 out of the box, i couldn't find any root for it, and someone have done a TWRP for it but i can't flash it because of FRP lock...can anyone please help?

I posted here because the only samsung device that runs 5.1 and i know is the s6..
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
It doesn't work with the AT&T variant
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
Do Not try this method for that device, go to setting click on system info click on build 7 times then back and select devolper options and enable oem unlock and do your flashing through ODIN
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
No, it is not compatible with UniKernal. Try at your own risk, there has been cases of bricked devices, be ware if your device is not mentioned on my guide
[Galaxy S6 General] Mr,bluwe:
Thank you a lot sir...you have saved the day...I'm finally capable of flashing files with odin...but i still can't root..do you now anything or anyway to root this device...as I'm in a bad need for rooting it (the device have been released recently in july...thats why there is still nothing about it)

[Galaxy S6 General] vphilot:
I really want to try this! First of all I wish I hadn't upgraded to 5.1.1 anyway.

What are the real implications of voiding Knox? I know about the security and payment functions being unavailable, but are there any other paybacks? I don't care about these functions at all, but I've seen some complaints about Knox being active the whole day and draining all the battery with warnings. Is that possible?
[Galaxy S6 General] mageldai:
The way I understand it is that the main problem with KNOX is the warranty. If you trigger your counter you officially lose your warranty which makes it hard to send it back to Samsung for repair.
[Galaxy S6 General] godutch:
warranty is not an issue, if you live in the eu, your retailer legally cannot deny you warranty even if you trip knox but samsung pay won't work ever again on your device
[Galaxy S6 General] BokkieAndijk:
Also no way to root.

Is there anybody here who thinks its possible to root G925FXXU2BOFM ? I tryd every possible way i think.

[Galaxy S6 General] twistedkid:
I have the same problem.

I tried flashing it, but ODIN failed...

Can someone help?
[Galaxy S6 General] ahmed_ais:
I think this is the case with SIM unlocked/International S6 that OEM unlock option will not be there (I'm not sure though). Anyway, I was able to flash UniBase and rooted my S6 5.1.1 so you might want to give it a try.

[Galaxy S6 General] boxa72:
If u have no option for oem unlock u can safely assume that ur bootloader is already unlocked. Very few lock bootloaders nowadays but it's mainly the 2 US telcos AT&T and Verizon that carry on with that BS!

Can I root my samsung galaxy s5 G900W8 5.1.1 with this?
[Galaxy S6 General] clonednull:
No personal disrespect mate and i don't want to be the smartass here but here is a list of indications, you could also use next time when you try to find out if a mod/hack is compatible with your device:

- This is the Galaxy S6 Forum thread here if it would work on a Galaxy S5 it would be in the Galaxy S5 Forum thread.

- In the OP the supported phone variants are: G920S/K/L/W8/T - the model "SM-G900x" (S5) is not mentioned there

- If you read the OP instructions you should notice the following paragraph:

the mandatory word here is "Kernel" so you are flashing a kernel on you phone - a kernel is always device specific and will never work on 2 devices with different hardware

So the short answer would be:

No :cool:
[Galaxy S6 General] g17123:
Sorry about that google kept giving me stuff s6 instead of s5 and I got confused. Cause I searched for how to root s5 and got how to root s6 instead every time.

Questions

Don't know much about phones and hoping someone can guide me

Name: Samsung-SM-G920V

Version: 5.1.1

Baseband: G920VVRU4BOG9

Kernel: 3.10.61 SWHD7317 date: 10/8/2015

Build: LMY47X

I want to root my verizon S6 but everywhere I look leads to one answer, it cannot be done.

What is knox and why is tripping it such a huge deal? Would this root work on my phone even if it trips knox?

I don't care about warranty, I just want my phone rooted and be able to use it. I'm afraid of bricking it if I use the wrong root.
[Galaxy S6 General] tyrone1:
The reason tripping Knox is a big deal on this phone is Samsung pay doesn't work if Knox is tripped.
[Galaxy S6 General] severoprisan:
Yes it will work. I have installed it on 920F. You will have root just by odin flashing the unikernel or adam kernel.

The problem is that in my case some notifications wont give an alert, they are on the screen but no sound, no vibration and no smartwatch alert.

And YES, I have all notifications enabled. After returning to stock, everything is working OK. This is the reason I gave up on custom kernels.

Hope this helps.

[Galaxy S6 General] Finijumper:
Shealth works well? And fingerprint? Is knox at 0x0?
[Galaxy S6 General] talroot:
I don't use Shealth but I just fired up the app and it's recording my steps just fine. Fingerprint works fine. Knox trips; void (0x0340) but I don't ever really intend to use my phone as a payment method. Blocking intrusive ads are more important to me.

I have noticed root browsing in ES File Explorer doesn't turn on. It says "Sorry,test failed. This feature cannot run on your device." SuperSU doesn't popup to grant access or anything. I guess it's an ES thing, not sure. I might play around it a little more or just go back to root explorer.
[Galaxy S6 General] alessa:
with this method ,knox is in 0x0?
[Galaxy S6 General] talroot:
No, it's "KNOX WARRANTY VOID: 1 (0x0304)

And it does give the message about Kernel is not seandroid enforcing.
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
It most likely work G920F is supported
[Galaxy S6 General] JerryIsaMaster:
i recommend you download a custom rom and use odin to flash the latest twrp and intsall it and the stock os isn't the best with mods, i recomend http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/development/to-n0t3-bring-larger-fun-to-flagship-t3179857 as this is currently what I am using as it is more efficent and smoother, reply if you have any other questions.

If you do not have the option then you cannot unlock your bootloader easily and this method probably will not work.

Guys! In real need of some help here! I'm a long time rom flasher, but I haven't used a Samsung phone since my s2. I've been on HTC one m7, nexus 5, nexus 6 and now on the 6p. Needless to say, procedures aren't exactly the same (I'm used to just flashing whatever through fastboot), and I've got a bit of a soft brick on my hands. Did everything exactly as it said in the OP, but when I went to reboot in recovery it flashes 'recovery is not seandroid enforcing' and then loops. Can't get past it. I can get into download mode just fine, and I'm sure I could flash the stock firmware from there, but I'm not even sure where to get that. Is there a thread I should check out? It seems like a couple other people had a problem similar to this one, and solved it by flashing something else in Odin. Could anyone direct me to more information on that? Is it possible to just flash the recovery via odin? Thanks a ton guys.

[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pratz852:
Guys... I've seen a few discussions about this, but the threads got closed.

I've had almost all of the galaxy S series (S3, S4 and now S6 edge)

I'm having lags and stutters while browsing some sites and even scrolling in Facebook, especially when going into Comments and looking at the replies of comments.

I'm absolutely mind boggled that when with these specs there are stutters and lags. I've also got the nexus 4,which doesn't have any issues at all.

I was having a hard time deciding between an iphone 6 (or 6S in fall) the Galaxy S6, but ultimately chose the S6, because I just couldn't justify paying that kind of money for outdated specs of 2 years ago. (Well I now have to admit specs are not everything)

I thought I wouldn't have to root my phone etc. because it'll run awesome out of the box, but that's not the case...

My galaxy S4 is almost running on par with the S6 though admittedly It's rooted and running an awesome custom rom.

I never used to care that much for micro lags and a bit of stutter,but you'd think they would have sorted it out by now with these monster specs and with this premium price now it always freaks me out if I see lags..

Otherwise it's really a beautiful phone with a mind blowing Camera. Though I still don't see the point why they went with such a high resolution for the display. ( if I take a picture on the S6 and send it to my s4 you can hardly spot a difference besides color accuracy and brightness, would rather have better battery with a lower res screen)

Anyone know a way to solve the scrolling problem? ( I tried 0.5 animation and factory reset to no avail)

Please don't shut down this thread like the other one,because it is a real issue!
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowby123:
After I obtained root, applied the unofficial memory bug fix, and installed a Debloated custom rom, the lag permanently disappeared. Consider doing as I did
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pratz852:
Thanks for your response :)

And I'm sure it's possible to get rid of lag with root and debloating/custom roms. I had lots of fun doing all these things in the past, but now I just want a phone that just works out of the box. It's just frustrating, that with such specs, the premium price and it being 2015 you still have to do those things. And it's become a headache to always look for things that are draining your battery in standby and use stuff like greenify. And with "Powersaving location" apps polling way to often instead of giving them a certain timeframe to do so. (I think Sony did that with the stamina mode )

Well I guess that's the way it is. Maybe I should consider another phone after so many years of android. :(
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snowby123:
The lag that occasionally occurs is solely due to the memory leak in lollipop and should be fixed officially in a future software update. Don't give your hopes up too quickly. Also, android is still better than ever on this phone.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pratz852:
I think it's more to do with the app quality and them not being optimized for specific phones. I mean they have to work on flagship phones as well as on budget 150$ phones. Well anyway let's just hope for the best... thanks anyway :)

And I saw somewhere that touchwiz 5.1.1 has a built in greenify :D:thumbup::thumbup:

I sent back my S6, because of some cosmetic problems and have to use the Nexus 4 to bridge the time it is back. Updated my S6 to 5.1.1. It was better, but still has RAM -issues and lags in the browser and especially Facebook app.

Using my Nexus again (admittedly with a custom rom) I have no scrolling lag at all. It´s so frustrating a 2,5 Year old device is faster at tasks than the spec-monster which is the Galaxy S6. #Sorryforrant
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtd03:
What rom did you install.

I hate that you have to resort to roms on these phones just to get them the work they way they should out of the box.

[G4 General] darksulfur5:
I'm on T-Mobile but I just got home and phoned up my co-worker who has the Verizon version. Says he noticed a slight improvement in overall touchscreen responsiveness. Biggest problem that he said was fixed was ghost touches (touching one portion of the screen caused a menu to pop up somewhere else for example) being completely gone. Idk, it's really starting to feel like a lot of these bugs should have gotten squashed in the product testing phase. Wonder if this is the same update as the mandatory one T-Mobile got way back. I wouldn't think so since the T-Mobile update did not fix touch screen issues for anyone.

Anybody notice the auto brightness isn't as dim anymore which is a good thing IMO.
[G4 General] bobloadmire:
well that sucks because the lowest wasn't low enough for me.
[G4 General] RedOCtobyr:
Forgive me if I've misunderstood QC 2.0. But my understanding is it can charge at 9V or 12V. So just because it's still at 9V doesn't definitely mean that the phone isn't receiving more power, the amps could have also increased.

To provide 15W, for instance, you'd need 3A at 5V, 1.67A at 9V, and 1.33A at 12V.

It's possible to still get 9V from the charger, but draw more amps, for faster charging. Using something like Battery Monitor Widget, to monitor the current provided to the battery, would be a useful tool.

SIdeloading apps problem???

UPDATE: Nevermind - issue not related to Verizon update... Had Twilight app kick on after sunset and that overlay app (reducing blue light) is what caused the touch issue. (Credit: brainwash1)

Enabled installing from "Unknown Sources" and installed an app yesterday no problem

I just did the Verizon system update and reboot

, now on sideloading install I get the permissions list with CANCEL & INSTALL buttons at the bottom. Looks normal, but the INSTALL button doesn't respond to any tapping. Tried landscape mode also, just to move where the button was located on the screen, but no dice. CANCEL button works fine.

[Also, if there are many permissions, so I need to scroll, the INSTALL button starts as a NEXT button, then changes to INSTALL when done scrolling to bottom. Doesn't matter, neither NEXT not INSTALL buttons function]

Not sure what else would cause this. It seems like the Verizon system update broke something. Anyone else having new problem sideloading after the update???

Whats your carrier? I think the other guy is verizon. So am i, and i put no thanks

Wiping the cache did nothing. It keeps popping up saying it is already downloaded and ready to install.
[G4 General] GuestK00143:
OK, then the update isn't stored in the cache partition as other phones. It's a bit drastic but a factory data reset will do it. I ended up taking the update and then froze the updater. It did improve the touch response so I have no need for further updates. It updates the kernel because that is where the necessary changes are.
