I am currently on 5.1.1 stock with rooted and twrp installed. After flashing 6.0.1 official ROM via Odin will I retain ROOT and TWRP? If not then how can i get rooted and twrp installed?
View 1 RepliesI am on a stock rooted Nexus 5 (with TWRP). I want to install a custom rom; however, I would like to do a clean install of the custom rom (making sure no files/settings of my previous installations are left if that makes sense). What's the best way to go about this? Does it mean I have to install both the custom rom and the recovery again in order to do a clean install?

View 10 Replies View RelatedThe title pretty much explains it. I just finished installing CM13 on my Nexus 6P, but realised I'd downloaded the wrong GApps, so booted up into CM13 (Worked fine) and then downloaded the newest GApps into internal storage (Which was NOT empty when I connected over USB to my PC) yet when I went to flash the new GApps, TWRP tells me that I have nothing in my internal storage folder. I'm confused as to how that could happen.

View 1 Replies View RelatedSo, I want to flash the latest version of TWRP to my 920i ... My only question is this..
- Flash the new TWRP 2.8.7.1 (the one for Android 5.1.1) with Odin
This one for the normal S6 models & This one for the Edge models
In Odin 3.10.6, which option do you select to flash TWRP? I'm assuming BL is for bootloader, CP is for modem - what do you use for the recovery? AP, CSC, or UMS. I don't want to select the wrong thing and brick my phone.
I am a rooted galaxy s5 with Verizon g900v on 4.4.4. I am trying to install twrp so that I can get a custom rom on my device. I am able to download the recovery file but when trying to flash the app crashes. I did enable the sd card patch and downloaded the required busy box and it is still not working!!!

I got a little problem with my TWRP.
Galaxy S6, Android 5.0.2
TWRP v2.8.7.1
I noticed it when i tried to install the Camera Mod. I tried flashing the zip, using TWRP.
It said, that the flashing was done succesfully, but nothing happened. I also tried it with anothter zip file, but still no change.
The folders which should have been changed doesn't show a change in the last changed dates etc.

Trying to root my Galaxy s6 SM-G920I India version but no luck. Had to restore stock firmware thrice today. Every time I used ODIN 3.10.6 with Unibase or Unikernal it would say kernel is not SEAndroid enforcing and stick to a bootloop. If I use the CF auto root method it says Recovery is not SEAndroid enforcing and again bootloop.
View 10 Replies View RelatedI tried rooting my Galaxy S5 SM-G900T and after the root process with Odin and TWRP in the last step when I rebooted the phone it got stuck on a boot loop in the Samsung logo, so I had no choice but to do a Factory reset which even the OS got deleted in the process. I'm downloading the 5.1.1 firmware for my phone on my computer but I have questions on how to install it on my phone now, because obviously PC is not recognizing my phone or it is not letting me access the storage or sd card once connected. I have Kies 3 in my pc and TWRP on the phone. Which way can I install the firmware on my phone again?

Things I've done: Used Odin to flash a md5 file or a rom I keep getting an error
I'm so lost, I just got the phone yesterday as well too...
I'm new to the Samsung S6. Just brought a second hand S6 edge from eBay, and how to flash twrp recovery to the phone. It's been a while since I flashed a Samsung phone unsure on the process on how do it. I'm not really worried about tripping know....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have not secured my taken pictures to OneDrive / Dropbox, but I thought a single TWRP backup (on a USB OTG) would be enough.
I was using Edgar28's XtreStoLite 2.1, and wanted to put 2.2 on the S6. I knew v2.2 needed a new bootloader and modem to be loaded in ODIN, so I did.
Before I did that, I made the TWRP backup on the usb stick, so if anything would happen I could go back.
Well, as I usually did with my Note 4 when installing a new ROM, I completely wiped everything except for the microSD card and the USB OTG.
But at that point I forgot the S6 doesn't use the microSD so I would probably be lost of all the photo's (yes because I also forgot to set up OneDrive).
Then I realised I had to go back because I forgot about my photo's. So I put back the modem and boatloader for XtreStoLite 2.1 and loaded the TWRP backup in the restore.
I hoped it'd start right up, but it does not. It comes in a bootloop, even before the animated samsung logo.
So then I tried installing XtreStoLite 2.1 without a wipe, and the system started but I couldn't see my photo's, the were gone.
Then I loaded the original firmware via odin over the backup, and I did see the photo's, but they were all grayed out. Like they were there but you wouldn't be able to see them.
What can I do to restore the photo's from the TWRP backup?
I flashed the XtreStoLite Bootloader and Modem for 5.1.1. After that I flashed the new TWRP with Odin, it passed so there shouldn't be any errors.
I tried to boot into the recovery after I turned off the phone with volume + / power / home button. At first there was only a picture of an android but now it doesn't do anything when I try to press the buttons.
The Bootloader shows that the knox is already tripped so it's w/e. Tried to check for root in Android terminal but apparently it doesn't recognise the command.
How to proceed, so I can finally boot into twrp?
I have a G920F. It is rooted via odin flashing Unikernel. When I tried to flash TWRP via TWRP Manager (installed from the playstore), the phone would get into a bootloop. It got stuck at the Galaxy S6 screen, with the red line up on the top left corner saying "Recovery Seandroid not enforcing" or something like that. I had to use KIES to get it back up and running (no data loss). Now I rooted it again, and root was successful. I want to get TWRP flashed in order to install the custom ROMS. How do I do that now? I don't want to have to use KIES to recover my phone again. It is running 5.1.1 btw.

Enabled Encryption on my rooted 128GB Galaxy S6 with custom ROM, for about 3 hours now it has been stuck on 'Encrypting...'.
Should I give it some more time or is it just hard reset and hope for the best?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a problem with my new Galaxy S6 (G920F). Rooted - la Chainfire with Odin.
After this process the phone seem to work fine. But the x axis is inverted.
Means: If I want to go into appdrawer which is on the right buttom side I need to click at the left buttom.
I tried to change the DPI to 480 what worked fine (after the above mentioned problem). Now camera as well as my keyboard is way to small for the screen. I've already seen the problem with the camera and a black border but it didn't seem to have been fixed yet..
Why am I receiving this message?
View 10 Replies View RelatedI got this phone as a gift, an SM-G920F. And it already has SuperSU in it when I got it. Which means it's already rooted if I'm not mistaken. I'm liking the phone and hoping to know more about it.
Anyway I discovered that you can only change the media volume with the rockers when a video or music is playing. And it defaults to ringtone otherwise. Same thing happens when the media pauses in the middle of playback. But I never change my ringtone volume. It's either on, off, or vibrate.
So I browsed the web for fixes. And found this app called Rocker Locker. I tried it but it was a huge battery drain, so it wasn't a permanent fix. I also found out that this behavior was changed in Marshmallow. Having the rockers change media volume by default.
Tried to check for OTA updates. But it said something about phone being modified. Which was lucky, because I've also read not to take OTA updates while rooted.
Long story short. How do I update from Lollipop to Marshmallow in a rooted phone?
I'm using G920I Australia version. I can successfully root using CF-Auto-Root.
But I can not get into TWRP recovery after I flashed that (tried both versions of the recovery) using odin. It stops at the first screen (samsung logo). I tried using adb commond reboot recovery and the hardware key (volum up+power+home), both of them do not let me in to the custom recovery.
I had tried enabled knox before flash TWRP, which made it into boot loop. And then recoveried using the official firmware. Now I can only get into the official recovery.
How to get into the TWRP? BTW, how to backup the pit file using adb? On previous models it was mmcblk0, but Galaxy S6 seems to have changed the memory map to sda1, sda2, etc.
