I tried search and I couldn't find a clear answer.

My phone is rooted now. Is it possible to update to this and keep root? To my understanding, it is not possible. I am close to just giving up root because I'm so sick of how slow this phone is sometimes.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] dandrumheller:
No known way to keep root and go to MM. I was rooted back in the day, and would take MM over root any day on this device.

I'm on AOE2, what is the upgrade path to PD6?

?? -> OJ7 > OJ9 > PD5 > PD6
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] ryguy2010:
If you already on OJ9, you can get the PD6 update FOTA. I already upgraded a phone that way.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] maidangxuan91:
My S6 is on OI2, how can i upgrade to MM PD6? can i still use my s6 with another GSM carrier in Vietnam after upgrade to MM?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] sand_bit:
[MENTION=7487245]maidangxuan91[/MENTION], [MENTION=720544]XGhozt[/MENTION], just Odin to BOJ7 first, then go from there.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] maelstromm:
Haven't done in this in a while. Will Odining to BOJ7 from OI2 restore carrier lock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] XGhozt:
This worked perfectly for me! Thank you!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] TheAquaVolt:
This seems like a good way to bypass the annoying AT&T carrier requirement to do an OTA update. I have T-Mobile service on this phone so I can't update without an AT&T sim, but this can bypass that. Thanks for the guide [MENTION=6759311]sand_bit[/MENTION] :D
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Corey78:
Question. I'm not to worried about it now since I have the update, but I unlocked my phone about 6 months ago with a Verizon sim card. I still have AT&T service. In the future would I be able to update my phone via Verizon sim since they updated before AT&T or do you have to actually Verizon?

Hey there, I'm just posting to let everyone know how I resolved the "cannot read" error in adb.

On a Windows 8.1 x64 machine, I opened the properties for adb.exe and set it to run in compatibility mode Windows 7. This is the only way I could get it to work. I hope this helps someone out, as the error was bothering me for days until I tried this fix.

Heloo Big thanks to the OP this toturial worked like a charm for me and also kept the factory unlock after the update. great work
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] maelstromm:

Im on boj7 trying to get to boj9 also error on 57%

pm me for solution or ill post here if enough people need help
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] talvigi:
Hay [MENTION=6759311]sand_bit[/MENTION]; I have an unlocked AT&T Galaxy S6 64GB Black Sapphire (G920A) and i have upgraded it following all you instructions,

My problem is that this phone sometimes automatically reboots, sometimes shuts down and doesn't boot on its own and it some times freezes too.

It used to shutdown and sometimes auto reboot when it was on 5.1.1, and i can't say the story before 5.1.1 because i bought it in used condition and that too out of USA, and i am using it on a other than AT&T Network, (When its running every thing runs smoothly)

So, following your instructions and assuming that whatever i'm on first download the BOJ7 from tools required No. 3.

"3. Get this if you are on Cricket firmware(BOJ6), or not on AT&T firmware BOJ9 or BOJ7 or facing dm-verity errors. Link to BOJ7",

and then i flashed the BOJ7 and followed the step 4 and upgraded to BOJ9

And next i changed my rout and selected to directly upgrade from BOJ9 to CPD6 and for that i went to this link

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=66795128&postcount=881

and got this OJ9 to PD6 - http://bit.ly/1rFX7qo

Later on as i always do, i performed a factory reset and cache wipe,

everything was good to see and i was hopping for an updated Android that would make my GS6 Fly but just after some two hours i got the first bump as my phone rebooted automatically.

And the story goes on and on now it does it multiple times a day even when it's on charging or on Safemode,

Sometimes there is only a blinking Blue notification light and no screen, no home key wakesup, no power button sleep or wake up, not even pressing the power button alone would start it, (it needs to press and hold vol up + PWR and sometimes vol down + Home Key + PWR)

I Love this phone, but now i am very disappointed from it.

Why would Samsung create such crap in this competating world? Why a huge brand like Galaxy can't be a complete phone?

Please help me, or show me some other way to go on, and please don't ask me to return the device as it is impossible, because i have bought an AT&T branded device out of the USA and that too in used condition, so it's not an option.

Please help me on some other ways if you can, or please suggest me some other forum or any other Dev in the XDA world.

I have also started my own thread to find some help but, i think no one knows these problems in the world. http://xdaforums.com/att-galaxy-s6/help/galaxy-s6-g920a-dies-suddenly-button-t3381355

I'm on G920AUCU3CPD6 (Android 6.0.1)

I would like to downgrade to G920AUCU3BOJ7 so I can Root

Is it possible to downgrade?

I'm trying to Restore lost Photos but most of good the restore programs needs root....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Epoisses:
Part of me wants to keep this a secret because I want to be the only guy but hey, gotta give back. This worked on my Cricket phone model ending with az instead of the AT&T a. I spent an entire day researching and it seemed impossible. Very hard to find this thread but found it, decided to try it, held my breath and it was an absolutely seamless process. Phone splash screen thinks it's AT&T of course, and a couple features too that I shut down. Disabled bloatware. Installed Cricket apps. Works like a charm, phone calls, texts, email. No errors, no problems. Never could have done it without you, this is the only place on the net with this info. I knew more about this than any of the reps by the end lol. Peace.

Oh, the reason: Really needed to be able to set individual app permissions, became an obsession.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] glazzi:
I have just received my 920a unlocked and its software version is G920AUCU1AOE2, which is 5.0.2 from around may 2015.

Can I apply this update after applying BOJ7 or I should apply another previous update?

Thanks a lot!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] ryguy2010:
You have to Odin to BOJ7, sideload BOJ9, and then you can sideload CPD6. Make sure you back up your phone with smartswitch, before doing this, as it will factory reset your phone.

---------- Post added at 08:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 AM ----------

Yes you can downgrade to BOJ7. CPD6 and BOJ7 share the same bootloader.

So is there any difference in the firmware for a galaxy S6 32 GB and S6 64 GB or not?

---------- Post added at 04:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:40 AM ----------

@glazzi if you live in the US or some other country but have access to AT&T services, you only need to check for updates and the phone will take its required firmware. If you don't have At&t services nearby you'll probably need to update to 5.1.1 and then 6.0.1 that's the procedure by default.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] ryguy2010:
There is no difference between the phones. Just one has more storage. They are the same model.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] talvigi:
Well thanks, actually I was asking about the firmware or OS/rom. In other words can I install the above discussed firmware in my 64 GB SM-G920A, or this one is for 32 GB model only?

I mean If I want to revert back to 5.1.1 and my phone was factory installed with Lollipop 5.1.1 and i am not that much happy with Marshmallow 6.0.1,

So in that case can I use the following OP provided links in no. 3 or simply this one

BL_G920AUCU3BOJ7_CL5927475_QB6773820_REV02_user_low_ship.tar.md5

to go back to Lollipop on my SM-G920A with 64GB memory black sapphire colour?

Because I have read somewhere when I was using a Galaxy S4 that firmware / OS for 16gb version is different than 32gb version. That's why I am a little bit cautious.

I just picked up a S6, SM-G920A and it is "stuck" on 5.0.2, OF4; it says it is up to date when I run the update check. Am I still good to follow this process straight through, since I am not coming from 5.1.1?

I've been on PD5 now for about a week. Super easy to upgrade thanks to this thread. But Ive noticed some bugs since upgrading. The phone overheats now when charging, battery life is also impacted during regular use. There also seems to be a bluetooth bug. Anyone else have these issues? And would side loading PD6 fix these issues?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] evilmrt:
You've been using it for about a week, how do you like it? Any performance issues? I think I will go ahead and do the same if you're happy with the update. Thanks
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Epoisses:
Everything seems fine. Had to disable a ton of AT&T bloatware that can't be uninstalled, a ton. But I haven't gotten any trouble from anything not working because it's using the Cricket subset of AT&T. I'm really glad I did this, I was mad, I tell you, mad lol. Make phone calls, take photos, send/receive texts including multimedia, get email, play games, everything you need a phone to do.:) Battery doesn't last any longer for sure but I don't like autodimming my screen. Maybe one or two app crashes but I'd guess that's compatibility with Marshmallow if anything. I do get today a couple "this app is not installed" when I'm not really doing anything, but I'd guess it's a minor transient thing. Phone wants to offer me AT&T video calling only on AT&T so I disabled that feature.

Only thing I haven't really tested is group texts, and I had received a group text that separated into individual texts after a messaging update, but I'm not really worried about that. I'd send a test one but I don't really like any people so.

Did you have the fun of calling Cricket and the insisting that they have nothing to do with the upgrade and making you call Samsung, and a Cricket supervisor refusing to speak with you because he insisted that was correct, and calling back again and them insisting that you must not have asked for tech support at Samsung, and if you had they would have been able to help you, and then calling back again (lol) and having a lady tell you that well, when she upgrades, the upgrade comes from Google, not from Cricket. How can people be so dumb and do tech support? Mad, I tell you. Also, I'm not a robot.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] talvigi:
will I don't think we have any thing like that in the market for now, but you can always perform a Odin flash of its 5.1.1 firmware that's called BOJ7 repair firmware and it is available on androidfilehost.com. Just search for 920A in the search bar of the site and fine BOJ7 https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297995. And don't get fooled by, that PD6_stock_ROM.zip it's a recovery flashable file and can't be flashed by Odin.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jesto80:
i have tried that file..it fails if i load all the files...the phone will flash if i dont load the BL file..any other suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] talvigi:
This might be a corrupt file download, did you match the md5 hashs of that file, or may be your device is not a 920A of the AT&T. Otherwise my limited mind stops working from here.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] jesto80:

Hi guys,

I have a Cricket G920AZ carrier unlocked. I'm using it with AT&T line right now. I just received the Marshmallow OTA. My current baseband is G920AZTUU4CPF2.

My question is, can I turn this phone into the AT&T version somehow?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] NoValidTitle:
Anyone have a link to a known clean version of Odin that works on 920A? The link in the OP is dead.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] oponewbie:
Yes you can, but I would not advise it as if you turn it to an AT&T version then you will have all AT&Ts versions bloatware which is ridiculous and a pain in the rear.

Also doing so might "Relock" your GSM settings. Which would mean you would need to reinput the unlock code again for it to work on another GSM other than AT&T or Cricket. Now the code should not change, but changing the phone from a SM-G920AZ to an SM-G920A would most likely reset the carrier lock.

but if you want to do this then follow the steps and where it says cricket that is you.

3. Get this if you are on Cricket firmware(BOJ6), or not on AT&T firmware BOJ9 or BOJ7 or facing dm-verity errors. Link to BOJ7

The only benefit you would get from making your "Cricket" Samsung Galaxy S6 and AT&T galaxy S6 is potentially better security updates in the future at the cost of AT&T bloatware and slightly lower performance from the latest AnTuTu benchmarks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] w_thenujaya:

So can u either provide working links or explain me the links provided by zero4 so that I can upgrade to marshmallow.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] loustu:
I decided to go ahead and upgrade back to PD6 from OJ9. Decided to skip PD5 and go directly to PD6. Has been just fine so far. None of the bugs I was experienced before. Battery life is much better as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] padawan_lp:
Does the AT&T version have more bloatware than the Cricket version? I want the faster security updates and I also want to use the HD Voice feature from AT&T.

The steps mention firmware (BOJ6), but I'm in the latest one, does it matter? I just want to be sure.

About the slower performance, is that compared to the Cricket version?

Thanks.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] oponewbie:
What version are u on?

Yes the AT&T version has ALOT more bloatware than the Cricket version. You will get faster security updates most likely with AT&T but that is about it.... Samsung S6 has HD voice built in on all versions. Now if you are talking Voice over LTE, AT&T has that disabled right now for cricket sims. Yes the bloatware for AT&T has a few security files that slow performance of the phone over the Cricket version.
