It's official. Can't function on Edge without a new kernel. Tried quite a good number of them. GOing back to stock rooted MM so I can have a functioning work phone. again. Let me know if you're able to get something working Slick, I'm interested in hearing what you did.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] pmohaupt:
Alright I'm finally on v2. For some odd reason there is no clock on the status bar and the NFC, vibrate and alarm icon are in the middle and cant be moved so I just disabled the icons and used potato to add a clock. Also no random reboots.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:
Is your WiFi calling working?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] pmohaupt:
Yes.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] shailah:
A reboot fixed this for me
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
Can't seem to get V2 going on T-Mobile S6

Edge

SM-G925T?

Here are my install steps.

1) ODIN'd G925TUVU3EPD1_G925TTMB3EPD1_TMB firmware.

2) Enabled USB Debugging and OEM Unlock.

3) ODIN'd twrp-3.0.2-0-zeroltetmo.img.tar.

4) Copied Twisted+Sixx+V2.zip and Boot.img (from stock firmware) to /Download folder.

5) TWRP installed Twisted V2 after wiping cache/data/sytem/dalvik.

6) Rebooted to TWRP.

7) TWRP installed boot.img.

But it won't boot up. Every time I select to boot from system, it just reboots to TWRP?

And if I just flash Twisted V2 without flashing the boot.img from stock firmware, then it boots up but soon after getting to the Google setup screen, my display goes all wonky/white and I can't see anything.

Anyone know what step I'm screwing up?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Try flashing the stock boot.img in odin...go directly into twrp and flash supersu beta and see if that works...my guess is that it will.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
Your guess is sadly wrong. I've tried just about everything.

1) You cant flash .img files in Odin

2) Doesn't v2 come fully equip with SuperSU already? Or is it baked just into the kernel?

EDIT: Actually, I just thought of something... sort of radical.. but it might work.. will post here my results.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:
[MENTION=7313123]HobbesG6[/MENTION] you might want to try that as well. Seems like you two might be the only duders running the Edge.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Create a tar file with 7zip...then can be odined

This rom is based on the 920 kernel, which isn't compatible with our 925
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
Yes, I also tried flashing the boot.tar in ODIN.

Same results.

Thanks though.

Still doesn't work on Edge.

I'll try the Superuser thing after I wait 16 minutes for a different try to finish booting up.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:
I believe you can flash .img files using Flashify or Rashr.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
The stock 925 boot.img is probably not going to work...I would flash the stock kernel, then flash supersu system less root and go from there...if it doesn't work, then we will have to wait for the kernel release.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
You can flash IMG files in TWRP too.

Just need to enable the IMG option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
Ypu can flash .img files directly from twrp, flashing isn't the issue here. But I'm reflashing v2 now, I did something different and I'll let you guys know if it worked in about 10+ minutes after its done optimizing, etc.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
I'm not sure I understand you. The boot.img is the stock kernel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
Hot dog, I figured it out! Was actually a lot easier than you'd think... the following is the required order of operations: EDGE USERS ONLY!

1) Factory reset

2) Odin flash stock rom (DE-SELECT REBOOT IN OPTIONS!!)

3) Odin flash arter97-recovery-g925fi-13.1-twrp_3.0.2-0.tar (DE-SELECT REBOOT IN OPTIONS!!)

4) TWRP Flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524

5) TWRP Reboot to system

6) Reboot to TWRP Recovery

7) TWRP Flash V2 (DE-SELECT REBOOT IN OPTIONS!!)

8) TWRP Flash boot.img (DE-SELECT REBOOT IN OPTIONS!!)

9) TWRP Flash BETA-SuperSU-v2.71-20160331103524

10) Profit
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
All you needed to do was flash recovery in step 3, and boot into recovery...step 4 isn't necessary.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
I kindly disagree. ;)

EDIT: Either way, it works now, so I'm a happy clam. Turns out my issue was not using SuperSU both times. Not having SuperSu made it so I couldn't properly run v2 or reflash the boot.img and is ultimately what the overall issue was for us poor edge users, Huzzah for Sickness!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Rooting, then installing a rom is unnecessary because you are installing a new rooted rom on top of what is already rooted....unnecessary time spent on an unnecessary step.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
Again.. I need to stress that we're not using the v2 kernel, which is where the root exists. You're assuming we already get root from the rom itself and not exclusively the kernel. This is what led me to believe that I was neglecting the root, since we're replacing the kernel, hence why the problems existed. We no longer had root, despite thinking we did, because of the boot.img replacing our rooted kernel. Please believe me, I implore you. :)

EDIT: Additionally, I want to point out that you're assuming and taking the liberty to assume that we started with a root. We edge users did not. We were forced to return to stock (unrooted) rom in order to correct the kernel issues. We required a root, because we had none.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Steps 8 and 9 are doing exactly what you needed. Once twrp is installed on our device, we don't need root (your step 4) to install anything, just twrp...once you have twrp, you can just install away.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
Well, you've got SuperSU flash in two different places?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] HobbesG6:
Dude, ignore him. He's assuming things about your setup that are not true. He's assuming you're coming from an pre-rooted device, which may be true, but if you started from the beginning like I listed, you would clearly not be using a rooted device, because you would have made a factory reset, and reverted back to a stock unrooted rom. If you're already using a rooted rom, aka, have already flashed stock unrooted, flashed recovery, and rooted--- then naturally you just skip ahead. He's throwing you off needlessly. Just use your brain and jump in where you need to jump in and disregard the chicken heads trying to confuse you.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
OK folks....I have ALOT to answer as far as all of the posts. Give me some time and I will address them.

BTW....Edge kernel is compiling
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Seriously bro, you don't need root to flash a rom, just twrp and and unlocked bootloader.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
Those of you that have issues with 3C....either delete it and reinstall. Or consider buying the pro version.

I use this app because "everything" works. If needed I will post screen shots of every screen....

Issues with 3Minit is outta my hands...may wanna ask in that thread....

There is no clock in notification until you active "alignment" in the potato clock app.

Gradient is set for black notification. You must use the app to adjust it as you want.

My kernel injects root. It's "systemless"...

Did I miss anything?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:
No issues with 3c per se. It was just that I did not see any IO schedulers when I was setting up my profile. I believe in the drop down it just read "unassigned".
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] pmohaupt:
Uh, is there anyway to remove the tmobile screens while booting, in notification area, and while turning off the phone?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
You can do that....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
Do you get this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] jczarowitz:
Slightly off topic I know but if anyone is having problems turning on root explorer with ES File Manager I found the solution here https://disqus.com/home/discussion/mjdseo/how_to_enable_root_browsing_in_es_file_explorer/newest/
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] pmohaupt:
Ill try.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] CZ Eddie:
Oh, hahah... no, I stopped paying attention to him when he said the stock kernel instead of boot.img was needed. :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
Best file explorer I have ever used. Fx File Explorer....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
The kernel is the boot.img...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] jczarowitz:
I came across that and thought about using it instead but I like ES cause of the chromecast plug in. What the problem boils down to is since SU is injected system-less into the phone it's in a different folder than where ES looks for it by default. It's an issue that should be fixed by ES though.

Edge Users

My Edge kernel just went to testing to see if it works....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Mofezzda:
Thank you, Moses!:angel:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
ATTENTION:

My phone is history. I will not be doing anything for a very long time.

Please dont ask me whats wrong with it because I DONT KNOW. Its unusable.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Mofezzda:
I know you said not to ask what happened but were you testing the it the edge kernel when happened?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] :
I have had no issue with the latest TWRP in that directory. Made a backup, and was able to flash V2. I also had stock ROM and Recovery flashed from sammobile before I did it. Not sure why yours would be bad.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] mjdavis871:
Aw man....just when things were starting to roll.

Seriously man you are killin me over here....i got so nervous i flashed my stock recovery.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] stangdriver44:
I'm glad I was able to help you out.

Funny thing is, I only knew how to fix because I did the same thing a few months ago and was for sure 100% convinced I broke my phone and was going to have to fork out the cash for a lost phone insurance claim!

Doesn't it feel good that we're not the only impatient fools doing that?

Now let's keep this place rolling forward because my MM build is definitely picking up speed and not stopping now!

Great job on your recent update and really looking forward to your amazing kernel build! Running Twisted kernel in my OZOP rom right now and thing is blazing fast and battery is killer!

Thanks again for your continued dedication to the development of this IMHO awesome device!

Not sure why the S6 forums are so quiet, but I'm happy with the phone, for now...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Can we get some story time in here?! I'm curious what happened and how you fixed it!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:
Don't really need to know what happened unless it is likely we could recreate it outside of development. If it is a setting in 3c or something that end users could recreate it might be helpfull in avoiding a panic attack of our own.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
I put the wrong boot.img in my zip. So, I flashed the Edge kernel to my phone.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] shailah:
Well i for one am glad you got it fixed

What was the panic moment if i may ask? Would it not even get to download mode? Cause i know from experience if wrong kernel and no recovery working odin can usually recover it
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] JustZaphod:
I once flashed the Wrong Recovery by accident to my phone.. It completely inverted my touch screen though it looked fine, touches were not registering properly.. I had a similar problem when trying to flash a Custom ROM on my old LG Optimus L9, that COMPLETELY inverted the touch on that screen as well.. Thankfully the fix was simple... But I needed to use the already inverted screen to tap in some commands in the phone app to get into the firmware.. That fixed both problems.. I thought I was going to have to send my phone back for warranty or an insurance claim..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] bigtom624:

Just to be fully sure I'm doing everything right, I've updated to 6.0 in odin

flash twrp and supersu successfully booted and I went back into twrp wiped caches, installed twisted six and it's still trying to boot on tmobile logo for over 30 minutes?

do I have to do anything else??
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] bx10r:
No su bro

1. odin sammy fw

2. Odin twrp 3.0 tar

3. Flash sic v2

4. Wait about 16 mins for boot

5. Let sit for 10 mins then reboot

6. Set up

7. Join the party

.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Maqical:
yeah, ended up figuring that out.. my phone sometimes doesn't play with twisted kernels.. idk

I had to install his stock mm one he posted like 2 days ago to get it to boot. :(

Edit; when reflashing the kernel from the v2 zip it just reboots over and over into recovery nonstop lol

idk what im doing wrong, been afk around here for awhile maybe I mess somethin up
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] bx10r:
Why u flashing a kernel? V2 has sic kernel v1. Im confused what you doing
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Maqical:
Kernel in the zip won't boot for me.

Sick posted a kernel 1-2 days ago of his stock mm kernel incase anyone wanted it, it made my phone boot

after trying a new kernel he gave me, I think it's a problem I had with my phone and nothing I did wrong, but thanks for the help
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] JustZaphod:
It takes about 9-15 mins at first boot.. I leave a timer on to watch..

It WILL boot if you give it time.. Are you flashing anything else with the ROM?

MM take a while to boot, especially when it has been Deodexed..

EDIT: I didn't see your previous post, you say you waited over 30 mins?

You are flashing this on a T Mobile Galaxy S6 Flat am I correct?

Your not flashing this on a Galaxy S Edge Or Edge +?

If you do have the Flat T Mobile Galaxy S6.. Are you trying to flash root on top? If this ROM is pre rooted..

No need to flash root.. And if that is the case you maybe flashing the wrong Root.. Flashing the wrong root can cause a bootloop..

While attempting at making my own build I ran across that, before I discovered Systemless Root to which this ROM already has, and is Injected as it's installed..

Edit2: If you flash a different Kernel such as V2, you must flash a Systemless Root..

I have attached a functional Systemless SuperSU below.. Systemless root is different from regular root.. Just google it..

Flash SuperSU AFTER you flashed the new Kernel...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] hs420:
Install went super smooth and this things cookin! Love it! Thanks again bro for yet another awesome build!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
You're welcome. [emoji3]
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] idiotec777:
can someone direct me to the BL and modem for MM? please
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] stangdriver44:
For flat

For edge

If you haven't updated to MM yet you need to full Odin first. The above are ONLY the bootloader/modem ODIN files.

They will NOT set up your system for the MM OS.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] xaxasant:
Nice been waiting for a 920T, MM is already so good curious to see how much better it gets with your kernel.

---------- Post added at 12:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:34 AM ----------

Don't mean to double post but it appears as though you can not unlock your phone when a fingerprint and password combination is used.

I restarted my phone, I entered the password as required when a restart is done, it accepts the password then locks itself again once again asking for the password.

It does that endlessly not allowing you to go past the lock screen, not sure if it's just me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DroneDoom:
Could you elaborate on that? I only odin flash BL and modem and then flashed back twrp and a MM ROM and everything works. There is a flicker of brightness adjusts however when it's facing the sun (full brightness is not constant). This is my first Samsung device, came from Nexus line so that's why I only bothered with only BL and radio.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] jczarowitz:
[MENTION=6687692]xaxasant[/MENTION] The same thing is happening to me and I tested with pattern password and fingerprint with the same result
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] genuine55:
I would say flash the whole system tar just to be on the safe side
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] :
Will be downloading this and flashing probably at beginning of next week as my laptop screen replacement is in the mail! I can not wait!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DroneDoom:
Maybe when I have 2 hours to kill from backing up and then setting it back up. Not noticing anything significant to do that urgently.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] The Sickness:
Edge users:

This rom will ONLY work if you flash the stock Edge kernel after flashing the rom.....my kernel is not compatible.

Maybe, and I mean maybe I will build a stock Edge kernel set to permissive. Only problem with that is I won't be able to test it. Which means I have to have someone do that. (Send zip. Wait. Wait. Wait some more...oh, kernel bootlooped. Start over. Send zip.....)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DroneDoom:
I gotta say, after flashing this, resource use leaves off at least 1gb of free RAM. I have around 150 user apps installed (have greenify to suppress some services) and it's just great. I gotta test out one thing though and then I'm golden. Will ask about it if there's a problem. Thanks sick.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DroneDoom:
Also if you want to get rid of the T-Mobile boot animations in favor to the international s6 stock MM one you can swap them out with the files inside the zip attached. This can't be flashed in twrp. I'm not on T-Mobile so I just felt like changing that (have an unlocked g920t).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] BigDaddy38:
Between you and Stang ill be busy for sure. Thankyou for jumping on the build so fast. And you know im looking forward to that kernel!!!!

Hey, yeah thanks, I'll try this since lolipop and test builds my phone has never liked the default gov on kernels and caused my phone to freeze.

I'm redoing my entire odin and install now to make sure I didn't mess up anything, but yeah I waited almost an hour I used a google timer

I've used only sick's kernels which im almost 100% positive all from the very start have root injected in some way
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] JustZaphod:
If you do choose to flash or update Root.. Be sure always to make sure its Systemless..

You can google it.. Just Google for Chainfire Systemless Root..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] Maqical:
yeah im just reinstalling without installing the super su zip because twisted installs it automatically.... I think i mess something up, I had it working, but i mess that up too testing too much shiz lmao

Thanks for the help guys
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] JustZaphod:
Using a Non Systemless Root Method on MM will not properly install and WILL cause a bootloop every single time..
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] DroneDoom:
I have xtrestolite ROM running v2 sickness kernel. I flashed the boot image and had to flash v68 SuperSU systemless otherwise my phone would go straight to recovery when I reboot. I think the script in v2 ROM flashes systemless afterward. So if you had v2 kernel installed and then you wanted to go back to stock kernel provided by sickness, in my case I would have to flash the zip and systemless su (because there's no su in /system partition for the ROM I'm using).
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6] cwhiatt:

For peoples in my situation that are switching between kernels but require systemless to patch it. I only used v68 but v71 should detect whether you need systemless.

Got it thanks.

As an aside, I re-flashed v2 just this morning and my apps finished restoring in TB. WiFi calling was hung up on "Enabling" however.

I just cleared the cache and rebooted. Now the WiFi calling says "Poor Signal" even though I just ran a speed test and came up with 29.5 Mbps download on the company's WiFi.
