Boost Version

I have the Boost edition of the Tribute 2. Did you still need to the bootloader? I'm actually looking for the stock Virgin Mobile rom for this phone. If anyone has the Virgin edition of this phone and could make a backup and upload of it, I would greatly appreciate it!!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooldadd6776:
I have the Virgin Mobile Tribute 2, and I would be willing to attempt to make back up and post it, but unfortunately, I am not quite that advanced in developing for android phones. If I could get steps on backing up the stock rom, I will do that for you. I need to learn how do that anyways, as well as other android developing skills.

I Have the SM G925Z Version of the galaxy s6 Edge [Japan SoftBank]

I See many Roms that say "Works with many g925 Versions !" but the Japanese Z Version is never listed anywhere.

only the F T U V P etc etc versions.

If I use TWRP 2.8.6.0 to backup my current Rom, can I try these other Roms and safely return to my Stock Rom

if cell or wifi service stop working? If I try 5.1.1 Roms, I can not return to 5.0.2 roms?

Can I use TWRP to install a 5.1.1 rom that I download, even while my current Rom is 5.0.2 ?

or can I only install Roms using Odin Flash tool ?

My ZTE Warp phone was able to install Roms from downloaded Zip files with TWRP.

But I am not 100 % sure about the process.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pickles523:
First the s6 edge is a different style of device. To install 5.1.1 roms on the device you have to be on 5.1.1. Same with 5.0.2. Yes you can try any rom from the s6 and the s6 edge rom so long as you flash a special kernal for your device that makes the rom work on your device. If cellular data does not work, revert to your nandroid backup of your origonal os and flash another rom and you'll be good if that one works. Just repeat if the roms dont work or if you get tired of it then just stick with your stock rom which should be your nandroid backup.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RecIV:
Thank you. I can understand this, except for the kernal part, please explain.

How can I backup my current Kernal so that I can return to my Stock Rom backup.?

will a TWRP Nandroid backup do that automatically ?

how do I install the correct Kernal? with TWRP ?

for example, from the ROM installation , it says

[5]Install Zip from storage

[6]Flash The Capsule ROM

[7]Flash arter97 kernel

[8]Flash SuperSU

[9]Reboot

Im assuming 5 means, copy the rom to the phone, 6 means use TWRP to install,

so flash the kernal after the rom ? with Twrp ?

how can I backup my kernal first? so that I can return to my 5.0.2.

and last question, you said I need to be on 5.1.1 to try 5.1.1 roms.

the Japan SM g925Z is a 5.0.2 rom atm, they never updated to 5.1.

most of the roms I see are 5.1.1

Does that mean there is no way to upgrade to 5.1.1 while on 5.0.2 ?

or does that mean, if I flash a new TWRP and 5.1.1 Rom, I can just never return to 5.1.1 ?
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RecIV:
Does TWRP Mean Kernel ?

maybe that is what I am missing.

I already have a working TWRP.

some roms do not mention flashing kernels in the installation, some do,

does that mean it does not matter? or does that mean that the installation guide is terrible and people are going to brick ---- if they dont know about it ?

Im not exactly sure the difference between kernel and Rom.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pickles523:
To answer your first question, the nandroid backup you do in twrp backs it up because it is a required portion of your rom. Which also answers your second question as yes.

The answer to your third question is you have to find a flashable zip of a custom kernal for your device. You can also try restoring your boot from the nandroid which contains the kernal and if that one doesnt work flash the custom kernal zip.

Next i need a link to the rom your trying to flash to check it out.

The only way to install 5.1.1 roms is to be on that android version. The reason is that android uses an sdk platform and 5.0.2 uses sdk 21 and 5.1.1 uses sdk 22 so those are incompatable with each other.

No way to update that device to 5.1.1 unless it is released for that device or unless the hardware sources are released for aosp roms which may be a while where samsung has not released them yet due to the new Exynos processor that they recently created.

No twrp is your recovery but it backs up your kernal with the backup.

Those roms are for specific device varients and will work without installing a kernal because the kernal that it needs is for the devices they are meant for.

The others that say install kernals are ones that didnt have the kernal put in the rom zip.

---------- Post added at 02:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:45 AM ----------

Either that or they didnt modify the kernals in the rom zip to the specifacations that they wanted so they fixed it and posted the kernal.
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RecIV:
thank you, that does explain alot.

I am not sure which Rom I should try. None of them actually say sm g95z.

Which roms would you recommend I try first?

I am not sure any will work, they all appear to be 5.1.1 only.

which means my 5.0.2 system can not test any of them.

or more specifically, if I upgrade to 5.1.1, and they fail to connect to wifi or cellular, then I can not return to 5.0.2 I guess.

Do you know of any that are 5.0.2 ?

those should be safe to try I guess.

I just want to get rid of the 500 retarded A-- Samsung apps that auto update.

I dont need Sfinder X_x, I dont need quick connect, I REALLY dont want virus protection from samsung clogging up my performance.

I have read about build.prop tweaks and updates, but the sm g925Z version did not get 5.1.1 updates, so those fixes do not work.

I do have Root access already, but with TWRP 2.8.6.0 (Because its said that it doesnt trip knox).

but I can not un-install these fkn bloatware apps, even with root access.

This appears to be a 5.0.2 Galaxy S6 Edge Rom.

I should be able to test it, and return to my g925ZZ TWRP backup pretty easily right ? since it is 5.0.2 ?

Just to confirm for other people.

I tested the VNRom 5.0.2 for G920F

I used TWRP backup to go back to Stock 5.0.2 just fine.

no problems.

Hello, Have you found any compatible rom?

Hello, I recently rooted my first android device and want to put a custom rom onto it (CyanogenMod to be precise). Under the list of supported devices listed on their website I found KLTE, among other versions for other countries. My Galaxy S5 is a Canadian model (KLTECAN). I want to know if the two are equal, or at least if it is safe to flash onto my phone.

just done rooting and install twrp on my device on 5.1.1 ( tmobile 925T s6 edge ) without tripping knox using AOU kernel . some how fingerprint is dead and security notice kept poping up ( how to turn this off ? ) any way to fix this ? , also is there any good rom out there that i can flash right now without tripping knox ? . thanks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] lemonov:
It clearly states it in the thread that the rooting method without tripping KNOX will break the fingerprint scanner.

There is NO way to get root, not trip KNOX, and have the fingerprint scanner working on 5.1.1.

And no, you can't flash custom ROMs without tripping KNOX.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] sjhotwings:
well thank you for the quick reply, and i just found out rooting w/o tripping knox will broke fingerprint sensor .
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
It really comes down to what you want more. A working fingerprint scanner and a selection of relly good custom roms (considering it's an exynos device), or Samsung pay. When I put it that way to myself, the decision was kinda easy for me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Pyperkub:
Yeah, this is the direction I'm likely to go. I just don't like that it's irrevocable, but Samsung/T-Mobile will likely discontinue support within a year (as soon as the S7 comes out? Yeah, probably). It's a really good phone but Exynos is going to limit its lifetime.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] AKW:
Well at least it's gonna get Marshmallow. I'm excited that the S7 is supposed to have a Qualcomm chip again, though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] blkkstrR618:
Hi, simple quick question.

Have a bad USB port, so any hope of Odin or any PC help is out of the picture. I had the phone rooted with towelroot and twrp(terminal emulator method). Switched to a version of cwm(not the latest and can't remember the version) couldnt flash the philz or cwm recovery zips.

Tried the terminal emulator method again, found a different guide and the recovery boots to download mode. As well as the power on button only.

Is there chance of recovery or complete reset??, at this point the phone has been off for at least two hours.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
So you flashed cwm and now when you press home, volume up and power it boots to download?

Can you boot normally into Android? If so, check out Mobile Odin by chainfire. He's got a thread here on xda for it. Maybe it can help you get where you need to be.
[P3600 General] MisterMalcolm:
I have a HTC P3600 (Trinity) PDA telephone with WM5 installed on it. I use it with the Philips SHB7102 Bluetooth Stereo Headset. When I pair the Philips SHB7102 Bluetooth Stereo Headset with my PDA it connects. When I walk away from the PDA for more than 10 metres and than walk back, I have to redo the whole pairing again from the beginning. The strange thing is that when I walk back the telephone function is normally working through my Philips SHB7102 Bluetooth Stereo Headset (it recoqnize my bluetooth headset) but the Wireless Stereo function (musicplayer software on my PDA) doesn't Recognize my bluetooth headset. So for this I have to do the whole repairing process again. If I turn off the bluetooth headset and then turn it on again I also have to do the whole repairing process again. The manual says that the pairing process is a one time process. This is only true for the telephone function but not for the music listening function.

I also tried the HTC P3600 with the Plantronics Pulsar 260 Bluetooth Stereo Headset and then this problem didn't occur. With the Plantronics the pairing is a one time action, but the sound quality is far less good as the Philips.

Does anyone has the same problem or knows how to fix this.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] happilyaccosted:
Mine does this too...actually just posted in the Q/A section.

Phone will turn off before putting the phone to my face and not turn on after taking the phone away from my face. I am hoping that this will get better as the screen protector attaches better over the next day.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] Jexx11:
Are you sure this is because of the screen protector? Did you test it by chance before putting the tempered glass on?

I've seen other people reporting this, but they are saying its a bug in marshmallow and not the screen protectors. I will have my phone later today so I hope to test it myself.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] haremmon:
I just ordered the Spigen tempered glass myself, can we get others to confirm this is an issue of Android M and not the protector itself? My phone is arriving tomorrow.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] jadeddjay:
Yes I am sure its because of the screen protector. Because it works fine before and after I took it off lol

Even if it is because of a bug... If you get it now, it won't work right. Until it gets fixed. That is all
[Nexus 5X Accessories] mkouk:
This sounds a lot like the issue with HTC's M7 when the initial software of the device wouldn't work well with glass protectors. The on screen buttons were not sensitive enough to detect touch once the glass protector was applied. Then HTC fixed that through a software update.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] DigitalMonk:
I'm returning mine as well. Didn't have the issue every call I made (only made a couple of calls, very rarely actually call people anymore) but I don't want the proximity sensor or FFC being covered period even if it ends up being partially or fully a software issue. Looks like there are several tempered options, think I'll wait a few days and see what others are saying about the other brands.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] riggsmagic:
Nothing wrong with your glass

Ok, so I am experiencing the same issue on a Nexus 5 running the latest update with no glass protector or anything. Phone goes dark when I put it to my ear and I have to manually hit the power button to turn on when I pull the phone away from my ear. Anywho I believe it is a bug and not your screen protector. I get my 5X today and I get my spigen tempered glass today as well. But if your proximity sensor is working with the glass on when you raise it to your ear then it should work when you drop it back down. Not working only when you pull the phone down seems like an issue with marshmallow. Proxy sensor seems to have a bug where its affecting waking up on a call from going dark. Test it out with the glass on your phone if you can cover up the proximity sensor and it effects the phone, then it still works.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] happilyaccosted:
Just tested this out with and without. It is the glass (now the glass is not sticking as well...oh well). The phone would turn off as soon as my finger goes over the sensor. would not turn on when i remove my finger. have to hit the power button twice to get the screen back on. speaker phone disables the sensor so no issues there.

Tempered Glass with Sensor Cutout I may try this one out next. I wrote to Spigen to see if they are going to resolve the issue.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] dmudd:
I just tested the sensor without the glass protector as well. The sensor being blocked is the problem. On phone calls with the protector on, the screen wouldn't light back up for a number of seconds or until hitting the power button a couple of times. Without the protector on, the screen behaves as it should.

I'm thinking about returning mine and getting a refund and then buying the new version if they release one. Unless Spigen would just do an exchange.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] Oklagija:
the screen still turns off during calls
[Nexus 5X Accessories] Mountainfisher:
That is good if the screen turns off when the phone is against your ear, and turns back on when you go to look at your phone to either end the call or look up a date or contact.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] EeZeEpEe:
Pretty sure he means it turns off when the phone isn't close to the face. This means the lack of proximity sensor cut is blocking the sensor as if your face is close to it.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] btort1:
I also have a problem with the spigen tempered glass
[Nexus 5X Accessories] Quantus:
I can confirm. Convincingly. The behaviour (put the phone to your ear during a call and the screen blanks appropriately and the fails to turn on again when you remove the phone from your ear) began immediately after installing the screen protector and most convincingly, when the screen was off during a call and the phone was away from my ear, it turned back on when I removed the protector during the call.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] NX3:
One more just to say the sensor is working perfectly with the glass protector on.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] aiwapro:
For those where your sensor is working, do you have the cut-out? I see Spigen has updated their pictures to show the cut-out, and I assume the product as well. I ordered the PET one, and awaiting a response from them so I can send them back, or receive new ones.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] hydro945:
I am one of folks who doesn't have the issue. I ordered mine before the phone was released so it does NOT have a cutout, but I am NOT having any issues.

I did contact Spigen as I was concerned, and even though I am not having the issue, the still offered to send me a replacement. They did say it will take 2-3 weeks. I imagine this is because they are revising the design based on the number of complaints. So at least I'll have a backup if I do start to have issues OR if I simply need to replace the original due to a drop, etc...
[Nexus 5X Accessories] mrswigon:
contacted spigen via amazon, they responded saying they would send me a replacement from "their updated batch." unfortunately, its going to be a couple weeks until it gets here (they are sold out right now)...not ideal, but i can handle the proximity issue until they, at least i dont have to buy another one.

[Nexus 5X Accessories] dmudd:
Definitely not a hardware issue. I ordered the original version for the 5X and had the issue. Took the protector off... no issue. Ordered and installed the Pleson protector with the cutouts and have no issues. It's more likely that there was a bad batch if some people ordered before receiving the first wave of 5Xes do not experience the issue that a lot of us did.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] owenrg:
I've been having the issue. The screen doesn't seem to be very sensitive either with the Spigen tempered screen protector. Looking at getting the Pleson one. It has good reviews and is 7$ on prime. If Spigen decides to send me a new one, then i'll have a back up i guess.
[Nexus 5X Accessories] deamondiamond:
As what owenrg said, I had the tempered glass on for about four days and then suddenly i had to press extremely hard for it to type, took the screen protector off and its fine, i'm awaiting a replacement from spigen due to the issue covering the proximity sensor but my last tempered glass i had from "nuglas" was fantastic. So I've bought one of these too.
