*UPDATED* January 8, 2017 *OFFICIAL STOCK*

Welcome SM-S906L users! If you are having any issues with your Straight Talk Galaxy S6, the official stock rom with the modem drivers is now avaliable!

This one SHOULD flash with success through Odin.

This is the link:

https://mega.nz/#!coQzVaoL!OxkuLxfqFsowAd82Yo51C2oKbSg7lcDQMPGeOWb_3e8

Please NOTE that you do NOT have to make a MEGA account to download files through mega. However, if your downloading straight from your phone, you will need the mega app. If your using Chrome on your laptop, you can download it from Chrome.

When flashing that stock, you shouldn't have any problems. I got a "PASS!". Just make sure you only have F. Reset Time and AutoReboot enabled through Odin. No PIT file is needed to flash!

Happy flashing!

Marshmallow (Android 6) to S906L

I have searched countless threads to find whether I can get Marshmallow to my phone, but answers are very ambiguous. So positing my questions.

1. The TWAP posted in the beginning of the thread, can I just flash it with ODIN and then apply SUPERSU to obtain the root? Do I need to unlock the boot loader before I apply TWARP recovery?

2. Is there any Marshmallow 6 firmware available which I can flash using ODIN after I achieve root?

3. The stock firmware posted by chocolote4444, is that Marshmallow 6 firmware?

4. What about flashing VZ firmware to this model, did anybody got any success doing that?

I am newbie and do not have any experience on this, but I want to give it a try.

Any clear answer/directions on how to install Marshmallow on this model would be very much appreciated.

On #3, No that is Lollipop 5.0.2 with working modem (EFS)

I don't think Straightalk is going to come out with any updates for this model. And flashing another version (Like G920V) Might not work. I tried flashing G920V 5.1.1 Firmware from updato but I keep getting negative response from the bootloader through Odin. I though for sure It would work because according to a thread on XDA, G920V is the same firmware as SM-S906L.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thxfctr:
This is it. I used the repair firmware. I'm not sure about the other file. It may be flashable thru twrp witch may be the better thing to try first. If that would work it could keep you from being stuck on s907vl like me. You would have to buy a female to female USB connector then put the md5 on a flash drive to try that though. I would try it if my phone was a stock s906l. Or maybe the small file could flash through Odin using the ap tab. Maybe try the latter first but I am just taking a somewhat educated guess. I know that the repair firmware flashes but you'll be stuck. If you could use the small file hopefully it would just flash the firmware and not the bootloader so you can keep root and twrp. Let me know how it goes.

[Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chocolote4444:
Hey everyone! For those who upgraded to Marshmallow from the SM-S906L 5.0.2 Straightalk ROM to the S907Vl rom, I may have found a way where you may be able to keep root access!

Since you can root the SM-S906L, IF your planning on upgrading to the other Straighttalk Marshmallow rom but also want root, Flashfire may be the answer!

After studying the Flashfire app, I found out it can flash not only zips, but firmware updates such as .md5 or OTA updates.

Since Flashfire gives you the option to Flash multiple files at once, I was thinking of instead of using Odin (The Windows application) to flash the update, download the update rom, then download SuperSu zip [search using Google], and then Flash BOTH files (First the ROM, and then the Supersu package), and then you should have root right??

I'm going to try this method and see if it will work!

I will never buy a Straight Talk phone again just b/c there is no good information on hacking them, or at least not on this phone, I had some trouble with the my S7 on Cricket Wireless but there still wasn't much on it.

Files contain a working TWRP for the SM-S906L or even the SM-S907VL if you ended up flashing the new model. Also there's a combination firmware for rooting.

Note: You'll need to flash the combination firmware before getting twrp if you are on the SM-S907VL. If you stayed on SM-S906L firmware, NO NEED TO FLASH COMBINATION. JUST FLASH TWRP.

Does anyone else have a problem with thre htc 6800 going into sleep mode and whenever you try to take it out by pressing power button it will not respond....Has anyone else ran into this problem?
[Mogul, XV6800 General] MikeChannon:
This was a common problem with the Hermes (TyTn). In the end there was not a full proof solution, but it was found that if you DO NOT let it go to sleep by itself but use the on/off button then it crashed much less often. I got into the habit of turning to standby manually as a matter of routine - it does make a difference.

In addition when charging I would always turn the screen ON before connecting the charger and leavie it on while charging. This prevented crashes that seemed to happen when plugging in the charger when in standby , only to find it would not come out of standby without a soft reset.
