any increase in SOT ?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
There is one thing, and one thing only that dominates SOT with screens like on the S6. Reduced brightness.

For the rest, such as CPU usage diffs between screen off and on, voltages, core stuffing, hotplugging, and all the rest, yes, that is all covered for max SOT (mostly due to the kernel).

[ROM] [SM-G920P] [DEBLOAT/DEODEX] TDH-JR (Just enough ROM) [v1.0]

My Skyhigh port is the stock kernel as its base with relevant (and many) commits on top to provide tuning access and additional features necessary to have rock solid, fast and efficient operations. The use of stock kernel in this scenario is not really in my plans for this ROM, but thanks for the suggestion none the less. The main reason for that is really about battery and efficiency, the stock kernel is simply too unsophisticated in certain areas due to it being quite a bit behind the standard Linux commits.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Whatever recovery you are using is suggesting you do *not* have a Sprint Galaxy S6. Your best bet is post the output of "getprop" in your recovery so we can determine what you actually have.

There are no tunings for speeding up the operations taking place. I does take a bit, understood. Much of the time is involved in setting up (injecting) SELinux policy properly, checking/fixing telephony databases for hotspot fix, running various processes for optimizations (cortexbrain, setting up crond, etc.). If you compute the percentage of uptime between boot and overall use, it is (normally, anyway) much, much, much less than even 0.1% of the time.

Not quite sure what you want me to get out of that image?

Update: Got it !!! ?

? I went ahead and started different version of TWRP to get that error go away and it actually stuck this time with no seandroid error, soon as it loaded I went in the TWRP I wiped my delvik and cache at the same time first then I did data all by itself and just in case I got the error again I left system alone I took a chance because I really didn't want to Flash over the bloated stock but I took a chance with it and it worked and it stuck like glue, yeaaaaa
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] aven_soulgazer:
I wish I could roll back.

I wiped everything, data and ask for clean install. Magisk manager says magisk not installed and not rooted. It also keeps saying update and when I click install nothing happens. Shrug

Edit. Had to go to settings apps and edit the permissions to download.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Magisk is what it is. The thread to seek help is the Magisk forum, but generally stated, Magisk has, for a very long time, exhibited that bug. A reboot generally fixes the situation. Do read the Magisk threads for insights.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Hey all,

I wanted to give and update and take feedback.

I have two models now: a Magisk module that follows a SkyHigh kernel install; and a bona fide ROM to flash.

Both end up identical, but for one thing: the Magisk module approach does not deodex. That ends up the single and only difference.

The advantage of the module approach is that to return to pure stock, just uninstall Magisk, that's it. That means folks can uninstall Magisk, take an update from Sprint, and just install my kernel and debloating module. No changes ever occur to the base system.

So, is deodex worth it to anyone? If not, I'll probably close this thread and open a new thread specifically to cover the module.

Hey man, as far as I know your the only developer for the 920p, can you make a S8 rom port? Or folllow bigdaddys work?? Cause I would like to see a rom with more personalization, but i cant find one fully working...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
I honestly don't have the time to invest in both a kernel and ROM right now. Possibly later in the new year.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Quick update -- have one bug to figure out: the device kicks off the 'DM is checking device...' and never finishes so the notification is always there. Debloated a bit to fat, obviously. :(. Working on it.

If someone happens to know where the device manager code resides, would love a pointer. Absent that, have to decompile things to find the dependencies and walk back the debloating to cover it off.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
I would update to the latest firmware, see my thread here: https://xdaforums.com/sprint-galaxy-s6/general/guide-links-files-update-root-restore-t3366862

After the update, save the ROM to your phone, install TWRP and immediately boot into recovery, then follow instructions in the first post of this thread.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] rhaspody:
I'm having the same issues as u. Did u manage to fix it? I did clean install as well. Besides that Rom is awesome

Edit. Reflashing didn't work and the hotspot fix in second post gave me error 7 in twrp. Any help would be appreciated.

I had hotspot in settings before flashing this rom. But somehow, after flashing this rom, I lost hotspot option. And reflashing back to stock didn't solve anything either. I'm screwed a bit
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
You should not flash anything at all for hotspot. The tile is available if as "Hotspot" in quick settings. No need, though. To keep messing around. I'm deprecating this ROM in favor of a Magisk module I'll release tomorrow along with my kernel updates.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
All,

It has been a pleasure working on this ROM for everyone. It is time to deprecate it, however, in favor of a newer method of achieving he same result.

I will release, tomorrow, a new kernel (SkyHigh) update and also will open a new thread for a new Magisk module that you can flash. That module performs even more debloating than his ROM and does so systemlessly (does not modify anything related to /system).

Look for that and again, my appreciation for all of you that contributed to me for this ROM. Hopefully it made folks' lives with this phone at least a bit better than pure stock.

Moderators, please close this thread.

Tester Update -- Feb 20, 2017

Update is ready for release presuming other testers go well.

The new version, TDH-JR-G920P-QA2-01 (based on latest QA2 firmware) is available here:

Android File Host Download

XDA Download

MD5: 28aac35b187e8868919966f2373e526f

You *can* dirty flash over stock setup and it should work fine, losing no settings. To do so:

Upgrade to QA2 in Odin (or if you already have, no need);

Copy the downloaded zip flashable to somewere in /sdcard (let's just presume that dir for now);

Load TWRP Recovery;

Backup your existing Stock QA2 ROM;

Wipe Dalvik and Cache;

Install this ROM from where you copied it (e.g., /sdcard/TDH-JR-G920P-QA2.zip);

Reboot to System -- it will take a good long time (and likely at least one reboot), just hang with it;

Once up, if you did not use the 'Briefing' Page in your UI, just turn it of again -- upgrades generally turn it back on;

Enjoy.

Of note: I removed all the modules (thus also the Synapse page for Modules) from the kernel and built-in those that the vast, vast and very vast majority want (ExFAT and NTFS). Saves space. If we want the others back, let me know and I'll add them. Also, my SkyHigh kernel has quite a few other upgrades, including SmartMax governor and a slew of other optimizations. You will see it as v3.70. Just FYI -- I continue to use the ktoonservative, but may gamers may well prefer SmartMax as it is both battery efficient and also should be quite responsive to up-speed needs.

Let me know if there are any issues. If I hear nothing after a couple days, I'll post it up as released.

Are you able to make calls using this rom? I can't. I just installed it and when I try to make a call signal goes out and i get no sim, sim error. Although I can see my carries symbol and i can send sms as well as connect to mobile data. Do I need to activate anything? Help!!!

OP Junior Member17 posts Thanks: 0

I am from the Philippines and I bought a used S6, when I checked model name in settings prior to buying it it showed SM-G920F. I wanted to update to 6.0 though so I looke up some stock roms on SM-G920F however I just keep getting an error. Thats when I found out, in download mode that what I really have is a SM-G920P which is locked to Sprint.

It recognizes my sim fine as I do have a signal but initially I cannot send a sms nor do I have a mobile data. I have resolved tthe sms issue by going to mobile networks in settings and flipping my preferred network from cdma/lte to automatic. That resolved my mobile data issue as well as I now have internet on my except but no hotspot or the mobile data icon in notifs.

Im ok with both functions usable now but my main problem is even if I do see a signal, I cannot ever make a single call. Once I dial a nimber it will show it is dialling then after a few seconds signal will go out and then dialling will stop with a message No sim.

Any tips? I am currently rooted and with the software version G920PVPS4CQA2. I have twrp recovery and busy box installed. I currently see SMART on the upper left side of my screen which indicates my carrier signal.

Badly need your inputs on this. Thanks in advance to all of you!

[ROM] [SM-G920P] [DEBLOAT/DEODEX] TDH-JR (Just enough ROM) [v1.0]

I can't lay claim to know your carrier frequencies, but you need to check the phone's capabilities in that regard as compared to your carrier. You might also try international roaming just to see if another carrier can connect.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] Irkd:
Any tips on how I can check my sim's frequency? As far as I know it is LTE.

Loving the ROM and so far so good however I notice Wi-Fi seems to disconnect when the screen is off for about a minute and reconnects once I turn it on. Is this intentional? If so how can I change it

As far as I know (@tdhite would know better) the kernel source was released for the SM-G920F, SM-G920K, SM-G920L, SM-G920S, SM-G920T variants, but not the SM-G920P.

Which is what we need.

Just wanted to say thank you for this ROM. It is amazing on battery life and extremely smooth and stable. Most of the customizations I need I can do with Xposed so I really don’t need a lot of features. My last phone was a Droid Turbo so you can imagine the disappointment in battery life when I switched to Samsung LOL But this is the best my battery life has been on this phone since I got it. :highfive:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] jdc214:
Hey I recently flashed this ROM to my phone and it's been working great except for one thing. For some reason none of the sensors are working anymore (they all worked before flashing). I tried checking with the apps Check My Android and Sensor Sense and both of them were registering that all of the sensors were there, but they weren't getting any input from them. I didn't see any posts about this in the thread before but does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
The kernel involved fully supports all sensors, but the debloating removes quite a few subsystems (as battery killers). What sensors are you looking for?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] jdc214:
The two functions I've missed the most are the light sensor because my screen can't automatically adjust brightness anymore and the "gyroscopic sensor / accelerometer" (if that's what it's) because I can't rotate my phone / apps or watch videos horizontally if the app doesn't force it into horizontal. Those are the two big things, I don't think I've been missing any other sensor-related features I may have lost.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Hmm, something else is up, that all works. Can you please describe what you have installed?

You sir, are awesome. :)

I am still on [MENTION=1254481]amieldl143[/MENTION] MM ... Have been trying to pull the trigger to N, but lack of Tasker and TiBu support with Magisk has kept me away (the former being not a problem with the beta5).

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
It is fully deodexed.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Update, I have a great build and of course kernel. All is very stable. Alas, Magisk v13 beta is very much less than done. It works, but sooner or later gets lost and to run a root session might need a reboot to regain root.

If all want, I can post a copy and give some pointers how to assure Magisk is getting it done, particularly synapse boot settings, et al.

Let me know.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] flett044:
Why can't you use magisk 12.0? Also if you released version 4.0 I would use it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] koop1955:
If you are going to use Magisk v13 Beta, may I suggest trying 170415? I haven't lost root with that version yet.

I would also be fine with using V12. Might as well wait for topjohnwu to finsih v13.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6] tdhite:
Thanks [MENTION=3816775]koop1955[/MENTION], latest beta drop of Magisk is good so fa). Magisk should see a release within days, worst case next weekend I would think. The build before was rather, well, frustrating is the best way to put it.

Anyway, rebuilt this ROM, updated the Kernel module for Magisk and a few bootstrap scripts and it is looking good. We will see, though, v13 has a very storied beta history.
