Hmm, I think XDA may be having issues at the moment. Clicking on reply to your post just brings up an empty page. Anyways, I'm trying to upload it to this post as well. If this one doesn't work, I'll try again tomorrow...

Edit: Nope, still a no-go. Oh well

Edit 2: Now you can download it. No idea what was up...

Edit 3: Attachment removed, it didn't work

Is there going to be a seperate thread for the 6.0 build?
[Fascinate Android Development] xc-racer99:
Well, it would need to boot first :) To be honest, I think my trees do indeed boot now but I have yet to upload a build (still have a couple for my own device left to upload, wish I had better internet...).

If it does boot, then I'll probably rename this thread and do something like I did for the first-gen Moto G (ie see http://xdaforums.com/moto-g/development/rom-unofficial-omnirom-5-1-moto-g-2013-t3197356)

Is there anybody interested in another potentially-booting build?
[Fascinate Android Development] Ophidian_DarkCore:
my build is finally going along. jack is taking its time. hopefully this afternoon itll be fine if there are no more issues. i had api change issues, default.prop didnt get copied, had to recompile my kernel for zswap to get enough ram to run jack...

it finished all that crap and then failed on clang saying a reloc wasnt supported in art

so i disabled host art clang and its continuing.

WaveUp (play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jarsilio.android.waveup) is a nice solution for SOD - Screen of Death. Buttons may not wake but a simple wave over the proximity sensor does and it's a nice little added feature.

In case anyone gets angry about my ressurecting an old thread consider this, the Fascinate came out in 2010, the thread originated in 2015 and it's now 2017. Honestly, omni-5.1.1-20151005-fascinatemtd-HOMEMADE.zip" is the best ROM I found for my ancient Fascinate.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
Hello Everyone,

Today we'll be unlocking the Samsung Galaxy SM-G920T 5.1.1 using the Z3X Samsung Tool or Octopus Box Samsung, which both required you to root your Galaxy S6 SM-G920T. I will guide throughout the steps to root your phone without tripping the knox counter, which will allow us to use one of the programs above. We will use the (sboot.bin) which allows their service centers to do flashing and repairs to the device without tripping the Knox counter. The modified bootloader also disables write protection on the device. Once you are done rooting and unlocking the Galaxy S6 SM-G920T, we will restore the official firmware 5.1.1. Don't worry, your phone is unlock permanently regardless of the times you restore the phone.

The steps to root your Samsung Galaxy SM-G920T 5.1.1

1. Install Samsung USB Drivers

2. Put the phone in download mode by: Power phone off then press and hold Volume down, home and power keys at same time until you see warning screen then let go and hit volume up one time.

3. Plug phone in and wait for drivers to install if necessary.

4. Download Odin

5. Download sboot.bin for Galaxy S6

6. Open odin and then you should now see phone’s modem port highlighted in blue.

7. Click on BL tab and select the correct sboot.bin that you downloaded above. Then click start.

8. When phone comes back on, power it off again and put into download mode.

9. Download UniBase_BOG8_v2

10. Open odin again and this time select AP tab and select UniBase_BOG_V2 file and click start.

11. You're Done!!!

When the phone turn on, it will be rooted. To verify that knox has not been tripped go back to download mode and it should still say KNOX WARRANTY: 0 (0X0000). Now you can go ahead and unlock your Samsung Galaxy SM-G920T 5.1.1 using the Z3X Samsung Tool or Octopus Box Samsung. The sboot.bin isn’t playing very well, causing issues with Calls and Fingerprint sensor, but it is only for the meantime until you restore your phone back to the stock firmware.

Restoring your Samsung Galaxy SM-G920T to the stock firmware 5.1.1

1. Download the SM-G920T stock firmware

2. Open and extract the firmware file, then you should get the a file in .tar.md5 format.

3. Put the phone in download mode by: Power phone off then press and hold Volume down, home and power keys at same time until you see warning screen then let go and hit volume up one time.

4. Open odin and then you should now see phone’s modem port highlighted in blue.

5. Click the AP button tab and select G920TUVU2COF6_G920TTMB2COF6_G920TUVU2COF6_HOME.tar.md5

6. Make sure Re-partition checkbox is NOT selected, under the Options tab. Click start and wait for it to finish completely.

7. Enjoy!!! The G920TUVU2COF6 Android 5.1.1 firmware on your Galaxy SM-G920T.

I hope this guide helps everyone who wants to unlock their Samsung Galaxy SM-G920T, but needs their phone rooted first temporarily.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] yoderz:
Will this work if I'm on the G920TUVU2COF8 build?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
It may work!

I'm sure it works on the G920TUVU2COF8 build, but I'm not 100% sure. If anything, you can always go restore your phone through odin.

Any chance we could get links to the files you reference? Thank you in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Kirabiyaka Wolf:
Can confirm it works. Went my own route on some things but Knox is 0 and SuperSU and TWRP are installed and working
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
Use the Search Engines!

I can't post the file links here, I would recommend you to use the search engine such as: Google, Bing, Yahoo and others to find the files you need. The files will be in the first two pages of the search engines.

I haven't tried it myself so as always at your own risk.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] LPoirierIV:
Yeah, I'm familiar with Google and the like. :p I just thought it may make things easier on people if there were links to the files since this was put together as a guide of sorts.

I ended up using the guide that noodlev1 posted since it came up frequently in the search for the needed files. I tried to post it earlier but I'm not cool enough to post links yet. I can confirm that I was able to root a bone stock sm-g920t without tripping knox.

As far as the sim unlock goes, still not able to successfully keep the sim unlock after a factory reset.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] noodlev1:
Were you on COF8? I want to try when I have a little time but I've been reading some people are having issues with ODIN on COF8.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] LPoirierIV:
I honestly forget which baseband I was on. I spent all day flashing different builds to try to get the sim unlock to stick. I'm currently on COF9 on a metro pcs rom for the sm-g920t1 in hopes that I can receive a working unlock code. (Metro PCS rom is the only way to enter an unlock code apparently.)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mrvirginia:
you could always PM one of these guys with the links...

very hard to follow a guide without links. granted there is google but who knows if what anyone finds is exactly what you used.

It should work without problems

These link should work fine with your galaxy s6 SM-G920t
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
You have to Root, unlock and restore

The Steps are easy, You must root the phone, unlock using Z3X Samsung Tool or Octopus Box Samsung and then restore the phone back to the stock firmware. Regardless of how many times you restore or update, your phone will always be unlock.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
It should work fine

Regardless of the firmware COF8 or COF6, you must have the full stock firmware to restore your phone after it rooted and unlocked.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
I can't post the link Yet!

I more than glad to post the link, I don't have any problems. The forum rules don't allow me yet to post the links. The guide you found have the link everyone needs too.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] ron.cabanillas:
It should work Too!

The latest Tmobile is COF8, regardless COF8 or COF6 build you can unlock it. The Steps are easy, You must root the phone, unlock using Z3X Samsung Tool or Octopus Box Samsung and then restore the phone back to the stock firmware. Regardless of how many times you restore or update, your phone will always be unlock. Now you can also flash to metro pcs, but you have to stay with the metro pcs after you unlock it with the code.

rooted but issues

both methods worked for my phone. got my phone rooter and unlocked. but i keep getting security threat warning if i stay rooted
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] guaneet:
You have to freeze or uninstal securitylogagent or something like that with titanium backup to prevent the threat warning.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] FlyingColors:
I honestly don't actually remember if I was on OF8. It could have been OF6 but I don't think it was. Anyway, the case I had on was messing it up. I don't think all the buttons were pressing. I took the case off and I could get into download mode every time.

Edit: That was for Max. On mobile and have no idea how to delete, sorry.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] maxjivi05:
after I returned to stock to fix call issues etc root is no more, how do you fix this?

What's up guys,I'm new to the S6 world. I get my new T-Mobile S6 in the mail tomorrow and will be following this thread closely to root it. I'm coming over from AT&T with a rooted S5 (G900A) on the latest OF3 running OA1 bootloader. Can't wait to get it and start modding the phone,just wanted to pop in and say hi! Is everything on here accurate as to NOT tripping the Knox counter,I'd like to root without tripping Knox but have to see if my new phone is even on the 5.1.1 update yet. All I'm looking for is to run stock rooted. Any help is greatly appreciated.

[EDIT] Got my S6 today(8/24/15) from T-Mo USA. It was on 5.0.2 and i rooted with Ping Pong, is there a way to get the 5.1 update and keep root?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] regxicide:
Can I use this to root a MetroPCS 920T1? or am i screwed......

Or if anyone can link me a way to root even if it trips KNOX im fine with it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cgalyon:
Think you need to return to stock, then update, and reapply root using one of the methods provided. Not 100% on this, but that's what it looks like to me.

I'm sitting on 5.02 with root until there is a 5.1.1 ROM that seems to have largely fixed the memory management problem. Then I'll probably go ahead and trip Knox to flash the custom ROM.

Edit: this was supposed to be in response to PS4AndroidHacker. I failed to quote
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Quickvic30:
Flash unikernel (in the unified s6/edge section) with odin and that will give you root, then use flashify from the play store and install TWRP.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] PS4AndroidHacker:
I have an idea for keeping root and updating to 5.1.1 OF6 and OF8. When I was over on AT&T rooted with S5,we used Flashfire to flash an update and it kept root. Would this be feasible with the S6?

[EDIT] What we did on AT&T was flash the old bootloader with the new system. Fortunately,the AT&T S5's would run the new system with the old bootloader so we were able to downgrade to the stock firmware whenever we wanted. I'll post the thread for it so you guys can get the idea.

Unlock?

Hey guys,

Has anyone successfully unlocked the phone while on this rom or have any suggestions on how to? I need to unlock but the t-mobile unlock app says that the device is not compatible and t-mobile apparently cannot unlock without the app working. I saw posts about the Z3X box but am eligible for an unlock so don't want to pay for it. I'm trying to avoid restoring stock and unlocking.

Thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] PS4AndroidHacker:
You can use websites to get a Sim unlock code or I usually go right through the provider. I would call T-Mobile and all you need is the phone number,and IMEI for the phone. If they say you have to have the app they are lying. They can do it on their end for free.

Does this method break the fingerprint scanner?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] slyii:
Fingerprint scanner should work just fine since you will be using UniKernel. if it doesnt, after you unlock it with the Z3X/Octoplus box you can flash the stock firmware using odin to get it back to full stock WITH unlock

Just tried it on my 920T and it does break the fingerprint scanner. I went back to stock using smart switch and confirmed it did not trip knox.

Hey, thanks for the reply. I thought too that t-mobile could unlock the phone without the app, I called again and spoke to a more knowledgeable tech, she requested the unlock but then I received this:

Unlock Code: Device App

Thank you for taking the time to contact T-Mobile. This device can only be unlocked by using the Device Unlock app in the device itself. There is no unlocking code available. Before completing the steps below to unlock your device you must be connected to the internet via a cellular network in order to complete the steps:

1) Launch the Device Unlock app

2) On the first screen, select continue to connect to the server

3) Wait for the device to connect to the server

4) Select the type of unlock: Temporary or Permanent

5) Please wait until the app connects to your carrier and requests to unlock

6) When an "Unlock Approved" message is received

7) Once received restart the device to apply the new unlock settings

Note: The temporary unlock is available only for 30 days after which the device will lock back to T-Mobile

ODINed back to stock, unlocked using the app, re-rooted and restored my TWRP backup and still have root...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] aff219:
can someone please clarify if I'm understanding this correctly?

-This method flashes a new firmware to your phone which in turn gives root access, which allows you to unlock your phone to work with any sim provider

-this firmware version has various issues, so after unlocking you need to re-flash the stock firmware to get functionality back

-upon re-flashing the stock firmware back on, you will no longer have root access

-This also means anything you've done while rooted (disabled bloatware for example) will be undone, because flashing your firmware deletes all personal data, installed software, and settings, right?

Which means besides unlocking, this is kind of useless as any and all settings made in the phone would be reset unless you kept the custom firmware installed, which is not ideal due to various issues it has?

If all of the above points are true, is there any firmware version I can install using this guide that doesn't have any major issues that would be recommended for regular use, wont trip knox, and will be able to go back to stock firmware in the future?

I ask because I'm looking for a way to root my phone to shut down bloatware process and/or uninstall bloatware to increase battery life, without tripping KNOX, and need to be able to go back to stock firmware/unroot in the future if i need to return phone under warranty

Thanks in advance for any information given
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Lovetoflyguy:
How do I undo this?

I failed to read closely enough and tried this before updating to 5.1.1, and now I'm stuck in the dreaded boot loop. I tried to flash an updated 5.1.1 rom, but Odin fails.

Can I get back to the original (out of the box) sboot.bin, kernel, etc without screwing up my phone?

Where can I find those files?

Should I take it to T-mobile and beg for help?
