Galaxy s6 Edge+ G928F unroot and update - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Guys;
First i want to apologize for my bad english.
I have some problems with my device and want to reset all to default and update my s6edge+ to the last version.
I got my phone in the first days and do the first possible root with the arter97 kernel.
This is my device now:
Android 5.1.1
G928F version
3.10.90-arter97 kernel.
I want a stock kernel, the newest android for this device (which is it? didnt see the tree in the forest) and just simple root but all other original.
How i have to go now? please help me...
I want the clean way, no problem if i loose something but if i can avoid this, it would be nice. (whats the best way today to save my data?)
Best greetings
Daniel

Use odin and flash the latest firmware for your model at sammobile.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ (firmware)
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24533103863142212 (odin)

Have I do a full wipe/Factory reset first?
Whats with the arter97 kernel?
Thanks for help

The wipe is up to you. I always wipe before putting anything new on just to be safe.
I think putting the firmware on with odin does wipe anyway, but not 100% sure.
As for the kernel, I haven't used that one. I use either skyhigh or audax kernels.

[Q] How to update to 5.0.1

Hi,
Im from the netherlands and noticed that the update for 5.0.1 is available.
I have the Exynos (N910C) version android 4.4.4 rooted installed now.
I have changed dpi settings true xposed.
What is the best way to update to the new version 5.0.1 ?
Thanks,
Roy
I have used the auto root to root the stock rom.
N910C is Exynos, not Snapdragon, so choose your ROM carefully.
Best way to upgrade is to backup everything first, then install new ROM with Odin (download correct version from sammobile), then root using your method of choice (I personally recommend flashing TWRP recovery and choose root on exit).
After that, you can restore everything you need from the backups.

Your device was rooted and no way to upgrade 5.0.1 via OTA. The only way now is download latest Firmware (for your Area) on Sammobile.com or similar website then using Odin to upgrade. Remember: full wipe on recovery first then flashing FW via Odin on Downloadmod.
Thanks for the awnsers. i meant the Exynos, sorry for that.
I havent tryed to update it true normal update way becouse i thought this wasnt possible as my device is rooted.
So i might try if i can do this?
Roy
OTA will fail because you tripped Knox when you rooted.
Besides, lollipop brings a new bootloader, modem and csc, so even if you choose to flash a custom lollipop ROM, you still need to upgrade those using Odin.

Thanks for the advice.
My device was imported from hungary and i found this one on sammobile :
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/44754/N910CXXU1BOC3_N910COXX1BOC1_XEH/
does this also incule the new bootloader, modem and csc ?
Roy
Yes, it seems ok.

thanks,
I have installed the 5.0.1 version true odin without doing a full wipe. I still have all my apps and files and it seems to work oke.
Did i have to do a full because of the battery draining stuff? or is it oke like this?
Roy
Should be fine as it is, but a full wipe once in a while never hurts...
If you notice something wrong, battery drain, lag or even applications force-close, then why not... perform a full wipe and restore your apps and settings gradually.
Make sure you backup everything, i failed my stock update to android 5..0.1 (OTA), and now i still didnt found anyway to get my data back, it remains dead there
Titanium Backup FTW

Dude
Just download the latest Lollipop from Samsung and you will be always safe.
To install a Custom Lollipop you should first flash the respective Bootloader and Modem that are contained into Samsung's release.
What I've told you will ALWAYS work. Flash a Sammobile firmware corresponding to the Custom ROM version you are intending regardless if it's LL or MM.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/5-0-1-dn-rom-e-team-t3031712
and want to try this mm custom rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-erobot-rom-note4-1-0-xxu2dpcb-t3357271
but maybe get some issue and want to return to my old rom ditto rom so when i want to try any custom rom even mm or lolipop i need to flash stock one by odin then flash custom rom even from mm to lolipop or just flash bootloader and modem ...
thx in advance
Hi ammarsg
To play safe and assure everything will work fine you should always match the ROM firmware code with your Bootloader+Modem Code
For example:
If you flash a Lolipop 5.1.1 XXU1AOH2 would be great if your BL+Modem could have the same code. This is not always possible so you have to find the closest one regarding your model/region.
The same will happen to a Marshmallow 6.0.1 XXU2DPE5. You should find a Marshmallow as closest as of the ROM for your BL+Modem.
It wont work if you mix Lollipop x Marshmallow.
The only overhead you will have while flashing an entire Sammobile firmware is that it will overwrite your Custom Recovery so you will have to flash it too again using Odin before the ROM.
If you are able to find ONLY the Bootloader+Modem needed for your model/region it will be easier but it's not usually available.
Hope you have understood now.
Nice regards.

Samsung Galaxy Note 3 how to unroot, unistall TWRP

Hi guys, I would like to sell my SGN3, because I've got a new phone. The question is.. How to make it "legal" again? Without TWRP, root and with official software?

Download the stock rom from Sammobile.com and flash the phone with Odin.

As OP does not have Exynos this is of no use .

Searching Odin S6 Edge Plus Nougat

Hi.
My 928f is not working so good.
Ive tried many firmwares but the battery is not working great. I now want to try to make a 10000% clean flash.
The battery was allready swapped.
Best way would be
A complete Nougat with Nougat Bootloader and Nougat pit File. Hope someone can give me a link ?
A really need a complete Nougat package with everything for a complete 100% clean flash !!
Thanks and sorry for my bad english :-/
if you dont mind i say this in here, but PIXEL rom V4 haves great battery life.
Had the same problem on stock rom, batterydrain. Pixel rom solved it for me.
basically if you flash stock frimware from odin, it is a clean flash when you have factory reset ticked. correct me if im wrong.
Ok.
Is every odin firmware with bootloader ?
First i want to bring to to a clean new stock
??
