It could just be me but I'm having problems with the MM system .zip. It downloaded but wouldn't copy to my phone. I also tried opening it with 7zip and I get an error there as well. I'm redownloading it in case it was a corrupt download.

In the mean time, I was able to flash the first file and then root and unlock. But, not only is there no wifi, I also cannot make or receive calls. My data does work. The may be corrected when wifi is, just thought I'd mention it.

UPDATE: I downloaded the file again and got the same thing. I tried just copying the file to a thumb drive and that failed as well so I think maybe it got corrupted when you uploaded it. I have them MM downloaded. What do I need to do to make the system folder flashable? Just zip it or is there something else?

UPDATE: I tried copying it to the SD card and it said it was a "multi volume set".
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] mnw1989:
Ok i will upload it again
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] pmterp:
Thank you. I went ahead and flashed the official MM fw just to see it. Then I flashed official LP and unlocked and then restored my last backup without any issues.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] mnw1989:
Which method you're use to convert img ro tar file cygwin or 7zip
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] pmterp:
I didn't have to convert the files. The firmwares that I downloaded were .tar.md5 and I flashed with odin. I do use 7zip for extracting files and in my attempts last night to make a flashable rom I used 7zip. The roms that I made before and posted were made using superr's kitchen on Linux.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] mnw1989:
I mean when you extract mm rom and repackaged bootloader and flash error how you make tar file
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] pmterp:
That was with 7zip.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] bigbooker455:
where is link?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] pmterp:
It was posted but the file didn't work so he's uploading it again.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] bigbooker455:
Ok...
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] mnw1989:
Sorry guys I've downloaded a fifth time link updated
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
Did anyone ever get this to work?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
I did. For about a week or more, Ive been running Marshmallow on my retail unit that was converted to a developer unit by the guide in this section. Everything works, I debloated it the way I liked it, and its working flawlessly.

Id release a ROM based on my tweaks, but I don't have a flashable zip to work from, and honestly, I don't know where to start on how to make one. More headache than I have time to put into it at this point in time.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
Cool cool, and you used the files in the op? Seemed like people were having issues is why I ask
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Yep. Wasn't the most straight forward guide, but I got it figured out. If the original devs don't mind, I'll make a new thread that goes through all the steps necessary for working with Marshmallow. I had to stray just a bit from the combination of the two guides to get it working, but it wasn't terribly hard. Just took a long time.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
OK, I think I have a Marshmallow ROM put together. Its basically 100% stock right now, with the exception of root. I have a busy night, so I'll try to test this when I can. If it works, then I will do a little modification, and make a thread for it!

UPDATE: So, absolutely NO luck making a flashable zip of even a stock ROM for the Note Edge. I keep getting an ERROR: 3. Something about minzip cant map the file or get its size. Don't know why, my method never fails on any other device. Anybody want to help out with this? Get something going?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
You might have more luck in one of the other Note Edge development sections with that issue, we never got many devs here due to how long it took to unlock the bootloader.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
GOT IT! OK, so I have a working, flashable 6.0.1 system. I tried it, and it boots and runs as it should. It is NOT yet debloated or rooted. That's my next step. I had to fiddle around with my VM to get it to work with SuperRs Kitchen. But it does work. I'm setting up a new VM now, that will be my work site for it. I have midterms tomorrow, so tonight and tomorrow are out for me. But maybe Friday I can get something out to you guys. It wont be much, but it'll be a start.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
All I want is to be able to install xposed
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
I might get that to work. Will have to see.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
OK, so I THINK I have my first ROM for the Note Edge finished. Just need to install it, and test it. I have two versions.

One is COMPLETELY STOCK + ROOTED. Contains bloat and everything.

Second is DEBLOATED + ROOTED (there is a separate flashable zip that contains all of the bloat I removed)

If everything goes well with the tests, I will start to upload them tonight, and after I'm done studying for my midterms tomorrow, I'll make a post for them.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
You should totes redo this guide in not broken english while you're at it (No offense OP)
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Yeah, or even better yet, I'll add it as a guide on my website. I can tweak it anytime, and its faster access then here.

I decided to tweak up my ROM a little. One version is still odexed (better performance), and one version is deodexed (using oatdump). I'll test both out tonight and if they work, upload them.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] PoLoMoTo:
Sure where ever I don't really care, if you could just drop a link when its up that'd be cool, much appreciation for bringing some life back to this.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
No problem. I just started a thread in this section for my work on this ROM. Lets keep the discussion of my ROM over there, and leave this open for the bootloader unlock discussions.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] wooddale:
I'm on 6.0 stock just got upgrade notice I wonder if it will screw things up even more if I decide to unlock? Thanks.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
If you decide to take the upgrade (CPG2 I assume), then try the unlock, let me know what happens. Hopefully it still works.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] wooddale:
I read somewhere that Verizon or somebody put out security patch for Sept that won't let you go back to 5.1 to root Odin fails.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Even if someone can pull the update, I'll see what I can do with it. I've been trying, but no luck so far.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] NekoShinigami:
If you take the ota update it will not work, don't do it its a trap lol. I've been screwed plenty by Samsung just don't fall for it. If you have kies you can pull the file from your temp folder after its downloaded but before it installs to your phone and someone can look at it and try to crack it though. I removed the update app with tibu though so I don't even get to check for updates lol. It's a trap anyhow they just want us locked back down.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
I believe, if the OTA app is installed and working, that doing a check, and beginning the download, that the OTA files URL will show up in a logcat.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] NekoShinigami:
I never thought of that, but maybe so.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] rodmc123:
I don't understand anything.. this guide is very confusing.

I downloaded this firmware and flashed it with Odin, now my wifi is broken and when I go to "about phone" it says I'm on lollipop (5.0.1).

Can any of the guys who got this working write a detailed "step by step" in understandable English to get Marshmallow 6.0.1 with bootloader unlocked + root?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
I did a while back.

http://steelroms.com/guide_vzw_note_edge_mm_bootloader_unlock.html
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] rodmc123:
Thanks a lot. That is a perfect step by step guide!
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
No problem. If you see something that needs corrected, let me know.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] dave3533:
Worked for me as well (even after the last OTA update), thank you very much.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Are you on CPG2?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] dave3533:
CPD1
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Gotcha. I'm still trying to pull CPG2 so I can make a new build from it. If you find a link anywhere to an actual download, let me know.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] rodmc123:
I'm facing an unexpected issue.. I followed the steps but was never able to install twrp, it failed..

I think I messed up something while executing the script. ( I verified before trying that my emmc starts with 15)

The first time I executed it got a message telling me that it changed the CID and to verify it on the screen.. then executed for a second time and it did something but at the end failed.

I'm not bricked and I can flash any rom with odin... so I was ready to start the guide again but for some reason kingoroot doesn't want to root my phone now!! ( I'm on the modified lollipop rom), only 1 day before running the exact same rom kingoroot was working without issues.. now it gets until 62% and the phone reboots, then continues until 75% reboots again and finally at 99% I get a popup warning window -using kingoroot windows app- saying that it's going to proceed to root my phone and install a custom recovery.. I accept and it fails.

The weird thing Is that I was able to root the phone using this rom and never got a reboot or a pop up message in kingoroot.. it would go from 0 to 100% in about 2-3 mins.. and then succeed.

My theory is that when I executed the CID script something changed in the phone and now kingoroot is trying another method to root it, thinking it is another model or I don't know.. or kingoroot in the background , when it detects the phone, downloads some files from a repository necessaries to root, but maybe the people of kingoroot changed the recipe for this phone or modified something in the last 2 days and that's why it's failing (highly unlikely)

[MENTION=2545403]chevycam94[/MENTION] Hey, thankyou for your work in rebuilding this into something we can understand, one thing, prerequisites., can you add that section into your page?

I can't wait to get this going on my Note edge, but before i jump into it, can you verify if i can start this while on 5.0.1?

also, the main reason i am even doing this is so i can use the mobile hotpot without verizon knowing. I currently am using a note 3 with jasminerom to do this, can someone verify if there is a rom that will support this or an exposed module maybe?

last note, dig your name chevycam94, my first car was a 90 camaro and ive had 5 camaros since. i just actually bought a 93 and parted it out, the LT1 is in my garage! I even have a camaro emblem tattoo haha. I have found new love in my 09 G8 Gt and my 06 GTO. still love my 91 Rs convertible though!
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] DV8:
So I am wondering if I am screwed since I have the latest updates and am already on Marshmallow? Thanks.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] Ivie:
yes

Yea, for now youre stuck, just like me. I ended up messing up during the ADB commands and flashed 6.01. Now im stuck.

I'm hoping the future holds good things for this phone, but i doubt it.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
Should have read this thread before jumping in and buying one of these; I saw "Marshmallow bootloader unlock" and thought we had this thing rooted. Just checked my phone information; Android 6.0.1, baseband ending in CPG2. FML.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
Any luck so far?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] chevycam94:
Not yet. Trying to integrate the update into a previous factory build is a hell of a lot harder than I expected. I wonder whats taking them so long to get the factory image.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
Been trying the root method listed here, figuring maybe I could see what happens. But I ran into another problem. When I first went through my setup, I enrolled in Samsung's device protection. But that requires a data connection during setup, which is disabled in the N915V-MOD-ROM.tar. I deleted my profile from Samsung thinking that would remove my device, which was stupid. Then I created a new account with the same email and password, and when I went through the motions to factory reset the device through the settings menu, I was able to link the device back to the new Samsung account. Did the "Find My Phone" and everything was working fine. So I went back to hard reset, and now it won't let me log into my Samsung account from the phone during setup. It give me "processing error." I'm only trying to disable the damn thing; I never should have enabled it in the first place.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
Looks like I'll be sending it to Samsung to unlock. They were decent about it, but I hope they don't charge me.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] thaydengeo:
Just an FYI, I was able to successfully unlock the bootloader starting from CPG2. Followed the steps in the steel rom guide and the only difference I noticed (not sure this has anything to do with originally being on CPG2 or not) was during the second pass entering the bootloader unlock commands it required me to put in a SD card to make some kind of backup - which erased the SD card! (nothing important on it luckily). Plus it never told me if my CID was "15" or not - it just said success! So I continued on and was able to install TWRP. Thanks again!
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
Excellent news! If I can ever get Samsung to unlock this thing, maybe I'll be able to root mine too. I've submitted it for repair 3 times now, and they always reject my request for some reason or other. I really thought they would stand by their product better than this.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] redpanda1229:
rodmc were you ever able to resolve this? i'm currently facing the same issue and never got past the firstpass of kingoroot
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] rodmc123:
Nope, I haven't had time to play with the phone anymore.. so now im in stock CPG2 and everything is running ok (as long as you avoid using the fingerprint scanner, makes the phone soft reboot)..

The last thing i did for my phone was to get a new original samsung battery from Amazon and since then the battery life has been amazing.. the phone barely drops any battery while it is in sleep mode so at the end of the day I easily have 80% with normal usage. (a few calls, check email, text, some apps in the background, gps location activated, etc).
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] redpanda1229:
Thanks for replying! I missed the marshmallow bootloader part so I restored it and went from there. I rooted it and silly me read that rooting it twice ought to ensure it stays, needless to say it didn't and even with all the steps in order, Kingoroot won't seem to work anymore, sigh.. on a side note, I got a Zerolemon for the phone and love it too, fresh batteries make a world of difference
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] xKillerXSmileZx:
Does anyone know an alternative root method? When I use Kingo Root and it gets to 99% with the phone in Odin mode it says "ROOT FAIL Try again or contact us for further support." and the phone just gets stuck on Downloading... with nothing happening until I reboot it to try again with the same results.

Only had success with rooting on the normal lollipop rom with the apk, but since this modified lollipop rom doesn't have wifi I can't use it and the pc version fails.

Update: It was failing on Windows 10, luckily I also have Windows 7 on my PC so I tried it in 7 with success this time.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] notedger:
I just bought a verizon note edge that came wtih marshmallow 6.0.1. Is there any possible way for me to root my phone? Any solutions of how I can?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] iakovl:
unlocked bootloader under 5.1.1

flashed mm rom

but when i try to flash TWRP get an error
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] btstarcher:
I'm having a similar problem, I think. I get to 99% and it enters Odin mode, and I always get "root failed." I'm running Windows 7. How did you get it to work?
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] abbood.absi:
can i flash rom in it
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] videohobby:
Got bootloop after the flashing odin with N915V-MOD-ROM.tar, and wipe data factory reset. Tried it several times.

The only way to boot normally is to again flash odin with MM-STOCK-N915V.tar.md5.

Does any has the same issue, and got it to boot? Wonder if Verizon has applied the update that flashing N915V-MOD-ROM.tar no longer works.

[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] jays note 2:
A big Thanks to the Devs!!!! When I brought this phone I never thought I'd be able to gain Root especially when I knew this thing had 1 of the latest MM installed and not much development ....Things weren't looking good until I came across this OP, the instructions are a little vague but that didn't stop me lolz.

The only problems I encountered was having to uninstall Kingo root as well as Odin that I already had installed on my Computer and using Kingo & Odin from this OP

---------- Post added at 01:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:29 AM ----------

Try taking Sim out and leave it out, then reflash MOD rom in Odin before proceeding with the rest of the OP....keep Sim out until the phone is fully set up
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] jays note 2:
I ran into the same problem, I found that it was due to me already having Odin 3.09 and a older version of Kingo installed on my Computer. This was easily fixed by uninstalling these 2 and using the 1s that are listed in the OP

stuck on step 9

Hi guys , im stuck on this next step 9 , i got it rooted with kingoroot , after that what should i do , i read all the steps , but cant find the file samsung unlock script, and where i extract 'ADB/FASTBOOT folder should i create that folder.. , ? sorry guys im new on this ...any help will be apprecciated..

?????9. Extract the Samsung Unlock script and copy the extracted file into your ADB/Fastboot folder

10. Within FASTBOOT open a COMMAND PROMPT with ADMIN rights.

Within Command Prompt type "adb " this will throw up a list of commands used within ADB, then type "adb devices" this will show a list of devices attached in random letters and numbers beneath it( Which in this case will only be one )

Now your going to push the unlock script to your phone by typing or by copy/paste each line followed by Enter.

adb push samsung_unlock_edge /data/local/tmp/

adb shell

su

cd /data/local/tmp/

chmod 777 samsung_unlock_edge

chown root.root samsung_unlock_edge

./samsung_unlock_edge*

When you push the last line of Script it will inform you that it will now proceed to try UNLOCK your phone and give you a yes/no option. Type Yes in capitails and wait for ADB to unlock your Bootloader.

You"ll be informed that the process is done and the phone will reboot, this process will cause your phone to BOOTLOOP until you pull the Battery & SD card. Keep the SD out until you are ready to install the CUSTOM KERNAL.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] jays note 2:
OK firstly what version windows are you running? Second. Did you D/L the ADB/Fastboot driver files to your computer. This is necessary as this is how the PC communicates with android.

If you haven't got it DL'd do a Google search for ADB/Fast boot with your Windows version. The DL file will be a zip file. Once you have it DL and to make it easier create a new folder on your desktop and extract the ADB/SDK into the newly created folder.

I'm on Win10 so I used Platform-tools its the same thing.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] jays note 2:
I would personally recommand Platform tools as its a all in one programme so download and extract

---------- Post added at 11:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 AM ----------

you can download the unlock script here. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=67027842

scroll down the page until you see "Download" and it'll take you to the link.
[Verizon Note Edge Android Development] jays note 2:
Once you've got both ADB and the unlock script DL'd extract the unlock script to the desktop, then place that extracted unlocked script in to the newly formed and extracted ADB folder you created. ***Copy straight into folder**** do not place it in any folders within ADB.

---------- Post added at 06:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:00 PM ----------

Then open a Command Prompt with Admin rights by right clicking on any open part of the ADB folder " The folder you created" not the ADB file that was just extracted.

If you have Power shell instead of Command Prompt then your gonna use. . / before typing ADB devices so it looks like this . / ADB devices

You only need to use this type of Command . / once or twice, once when you open the ADB link & again when you push the script to your phone.

Then proceed with the rest for of the script commands also if you are using Power shell when you get to the last script command you'll need to manually type it in

As you see it . /samsung_unlock_edge

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:35 PM ----------

You may have to run Kingo root and reroot your phone due to it being turned off, as turning off the phone before running the scripts may cause you to loose temp root.
