Latest bootloader + latest modem + V7 + Pokemon Go 0.39.1 + ALL Working Fine

I was updating to V7, and I decided to update everything on the phone to the latest version available from my mobile provider (it has been more than 1 year without updating modem and bootloader:cowboy:)

My steps were:

1-	Downloaded latest firmware from my country/provider for my S6 edge from sammobile.

2-	Flashed with Odin.

--- I did this to obtain latest modem for my country and latest bootloader (both of them from September)

3-	Flashed Alexis V7.

4-	Rebooted into System (normal), full initial setup.

5-	Unrooted with the superSU app.

6-	Rebooted into Recovery, to flash Arters kernel (it’s my favourite and in my case gives the best battery life).

7-	Rebooted again to see everything was working fine with arters kernel and to check that root access didn’t exist (just open adway and it should say it doesn’t have root).

8-	Rebooted into Recovery, went into Advanced option, the into Terminal and typed the MANDATORY command: echo “SYSTEMLESS=true” > /data/.supersu .Just type ok, and press back to search for the Install option in recovery.

9-	Flashed SR1-SuperSU-v2.78-SR1-20160915123031.zip. You should see to process in the log, the SuperSU installer (which says Systemless mode) and the boot image patcher. This means you used the correct command on step 8.

10-	Went back and flashed xposed-v86.2-sdk23-topjohnwu.zip

11-	Went back and flashed suhide-0.53.zip (there should not be red or fatal errors).

12-	Wiped cache/dalvik cache and rebooted into System (it bootlooped 2 times and took around 4 minutes to start, it should be normal as it is stayed in the installer log).

13-	Opened SuperSU app for the first time, then opened Adaway to confirm root was working fine (and to get rid of the annoying ads).

14-	Installed XposedInstaller_by_dvdandroid.apk

15-	Opened XposedInstaller app and downloaded and installed Xposed Pokemon Module and Snorlax module (I use this module to play the game from home and to se IVs).

16-	Activated it and rebooted.

17-	Downloaded latest Pokemon Go app from the play store and play.

I ended up with my Galaxy S6 Edge having the latest bootloader, the latest modem for my country/provider, the best ROM (Alexis!), a nice battery life and being able to play the latest version of POKGO with root + xposed modules.

I hope this info helps other people as well.

Thanks a lot!! [MENTION=6114446]AlexisXDA[/MENTION]

[Galaxy S6 Android Development] LuanTeles:
with arter you need a system mode SU, not the systemless, sometimes it doent work refrash kernel and su until it works. sometimes heres flashing super SU gives me FC =S its a pain in the ass
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] AlexisXDA:
Bc with supersu in system mode you don't have to install supersu after flashing arter kernel
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] lambik333:
i started all over again, wiped everything,installed your rom,arter kernel and supersu, all fine for now but batterydrain....:( what can that be???

Tried that dialer codes dont work on this rom
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] garthybarthy:
Downloading phone info from play store, open the app and select secret codes, scroll down and select 2663. It then brings up the update page your looking for.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] m3tatr0n84:
Thanks Alexis.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] heiskanenej:
Happened me twice. Dirty flash and choose other email. Or download some email app from playstore.

Use the app phone info from play store, that worked for me.

Thanks friend, so... how can i install 7.0.1 ?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] GayCasper:
Idk. I need to find a link to hacker kernel for sm-g925T
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] smach31:
there no lte on this rom but its so good im able to deal with this problem maybe in update lte will be there (i hope)!! im on sm-g920w8 canadian videotron
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] m3tatr0n84:
If I can't get LTE on this ROM, It's not a deal breaker. ROM seems to be very stable, lean and fast. I usually just browse news or using maps when I'm on data network so 4G connection is acceptable. If I come across a solution I'll post it here.

BTW, I'm using TWRP, can I use this to flash Arter kernel? I seem to recall Alexis recommends Philz or CWM.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] istommy:
Got twrp and used it to flash Arter's kernel, just remember to flash SuperSu after cause you'll loose root after flashing it
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] carbonize:
I suspect you are getting LTE but your CSC has it set to show 4G instead. Can't remember the exact setting.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] hellbison:
can't download 7.0.1 via OTA app, it say's "unable to get download status". Can you post a link to 7.0.1?

[MENTION=6114446]AlexisXDA[/MENTION], awesome ROM. Thanks for all your hard work - I'm running the 7.0 with Arter kernel on a 920W8 and it's excellent. I appreciate your support for the W8/T versions of the S6. :)

I'm on a Canadian carrier (Telus). I believe the CSC code is TLS. I'm curious as to whether I can put the CSC files for my ROM in CSC folder to get VoLTE, etc? Is it just a matter of getting the stock ROM, extracting the CSC files from it and then copying them into AlexisROM?

Also, for my other Canadian compatriots running this ROM, although the signal bar says 4G it does appear to be connecting to LTE. As mentioned above, I believe 4G is the international method for displaying LTE. I'm not sure if it can be changed in a CSC edit (I'm using Good Lock which seems to display LTE as 4G no matter what).
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] garthybarthy:
4G is the same as LTE, you can use xtouchwiz module from xposed to adjust from 4G to LTE if you have xposed.

There is a line in the CSC you can change yourself and not use the app but I can't remember what it is.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] istommy:
Thanks for the info, I do have xposed and xtouchwiz but was hoping for a csc edit instead
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] carbonize:
CSC features expert by Wanam. Then search for brand icon
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] smach31:
xtouchwiz dont work with alexis rom
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] garthybarthy:
It works fine.
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] daubh:
Any screenshots of system memory and RAM usage by this ROM?

Also, any screenshots of anyone who installed all Google apps from Aroma?
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] istommy:
Xtouchwiz works fine, please see attached picture
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] paegasz:
Hi Please help....anyone knows how to change 4G to LTE icon in status bar? manually or other way? Thanx for reply.

ok it work with arter kernel i just try it
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] Lucifer.S:
Any one tried CSC AROMA INSTALLER in v7.0 for volte ??
[Galaxy S6 Android Development] zco385:
Install Xposed and flash Flat Style Bar Indicators, that way you can give your whole status bar modern look :)

I tried this same thing (For T-mobile) but it didn't seem to change anything.

I have a feeling that T-Mobiles CSC is a different case from every other one from what I understand. I'm looking to edit the CSC AROMA installer to allow for SGS6 and install the appropriate files. Give me time.
