No root option works g928f/g928t - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

First of all I was initially confused concerning how the phone has g928t on the body and download mode and recovery but when booted successfully all you can see it's G928f in the settings anyways I ignore those and hit every option I knew for rooting, tried cf root both for g928t and g928f both flash successfully but always ending in Ramdisk bla bla decompressing error,so I tried twrp... Flashed successfully,, downloaded magisk, all kind of user Su, all ended up in Ramsdisk decompressing error. At this time I became super super confused and decided to ask for help.
Why I didn't flash the phone to try again is because phone might have been t-mobile but was flashed g928f in order to unlock it, so don't want to loose network or run into miscalculated problems. This is the log error from twrp

What's going on is that the ROM flashed to your device isn't t mobile. Sim unlock is a code entered into the device and is not related to its firmware. It will not lock your device if you revert back to the normal ROM.

I'm using a note 5 ROM on my s6e+ so mine shows a different model from what it is also. And I go from stock to note 5 to custom s6+ ROMs and never had my lock come back.

Solution to Sim unlock OD3 with no downgrade Bootloader

Sorry for my english before to all, i recently take the OTA od3 and my network shut down, and cant downgrade to KK or JB because this bootloader block to downgrade version, but i solved this using some ideas from varios post here and on highonandroid.com, i can restore my network but data not work, if wanna data working, you should install a custom rom. Procces Here:
1.- Your stocked on OD3 Bootloader, need to install CWM Root http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS5/CWM/Qualcomm/philz_touch_6.26.2-klte.tar.md5 form odin on download mode.
2.- Download Galaxy S5 Rooted Stock ROMs from here http://galaxys5root.com/galaxy-s5-rooted-stock-roms/ and copy to your SD card.
3.- In to recovery philz and wipe data, cache, and in advance clear daevil cache, back to install zip and install the stock rom, very important install the Galaxy_S5_spr_Stock.Kernel_NK4 from here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=22599 or you will be stuck on samsung logo.
4.- Download http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2998481&d=1415081045 important disable your antivirus or you sould be on trouble with this app, install app and unlock your network, at this step you gonna be on kk version with od3 bootloader with your phone netwok works, on my case cant get data, you could try to confugure apn but for me doenst works, if you want a data need to follow the next step or stop here on stock version.
5.- OPTIONAL, if wanna data download this rom https://mega.co.nz/#!tEoSyKwT!qVTcxydRgtSIEg6fcstIZ3QkJuFMCTkTf9sbMnB CAXM (copy space CAMXM its part of link) and put on your sd, reboot on recovery, wipe data and cache, install the rom, and this is all.
Note: Each firts time to install a rom (stock and Custom) the phone during too time to into a system dont scary its only 1 time, and dont power off it, if step 5 doesnt turn on install the kernel again.
Too thanks to this persons and pages, all the stuff and links are of this guys, i only put it together here, plz visit their post and thanking to they:

so you flashed G900P rom on G860P ?????
Hi, I tried this, but everytime I select "reboot system now" after flashing the rooted stock rom and the kernel, it says "root access is missing. root device?" with choices "No, Yes - root device, and No". Then if I select "Yes - root device" it still goes to cwm recovery after rebooting.
Here's what I did:
1. Install CWM using Odin.
2. In CWM, wipe data -> clean for new rom.
3. wipe cache.
4. wipe dalvik cache.
5. flash SM-G900P_NI3_ROOTED_ODEXED.zip.
6. flash Galaxy_S5_spr_Stock.Kernel_NK4.zip.
7. Reboot system -> Yes - root device.
Can you check if I did something wrong? I don't know what to do. Thanks.
has anybody tried to to do this,because i want to do it and i dont want to damage my phone,i have a sprint Galaxy S5 SM-G900P

N910TUVS2EPG2 - Caution & Info

Be cautious with the latest N910TUVS2EPG2.
You might not be able to downgrade the bootloader once its updated.
If you look back at the history of builds for the N910T you will see the following:
N910TUV U2 EPE3 = 6.0.1
N910TUV U2 DOK2 = 5.1.1
N910TUV U1 COG2 = 5.0.2
Pay attention to the U1 & U2 numbers.
Notice that you can upgrade and downgrade between 6.0.1 and 5.1.1 but cannot downgrade to 5.0.1
Both 6.0.1 and 5.1.1 have U2 in their build. In the past (at least on some devices) once these numbers change is when you cannot downgrade to a different number.
So whats my point? Look at the latest build. N910TUV S2 EPG2.
"S2" This very well could mean you can not downgrade to 5.1.1 and or PE3 6.0.1.
It also could mean that there have been some other bootloader changes.
There have been some reports that some on the latest N910TUVS2EPG2 have had trouble flashing TWRP.
Disclaimer: This info is not to be taken as golden fact. I'm just providing it so people can look out and be aware this has been the case in the past.
Since a lot of this information has not been confirmed and will not be confirmed by Samsung we can only go by past situations.
This has been indeed the case on both the Note 4 and the Galaxy Tab S2
To everyone that has indeed updated to this new Firmware version (N910TUVS2EPG2) please post any experiences from it.
Any problems? Any confirmed known changes. Anything.
Thanks!
I updated, and I was able to install twrp, root, and xposed. However, I have heard reports that twrp doesn't work for some people.
I updated yesterday. Took a couple of tries, but I got it to install twrp & supersu. Currently rooted on epg2
Can anyone point me in the direction of installing xposed on 6.0.1?
N910T here. Updated to EPG2 and I was able flash twrp, supersu v2.76 and custom ROM. I haven't tried rolling back to 5.1.1 bootloader yet.

Any chance one of you could try rolling back to 5.1.1 or even PE3?
Regarding Xposed it should be the same one as PE3.

IM NOT RESPONSABLE IF A HEART ATTACK OCCUR OR YOUR PHONE BLOW UP WITH ALL THE ROOF :silly:
IF YOU HAVE YOUR PHONE IN MM PG2 STOCK rooted with super SU systemless and last TWRP instaled (like me) YOU CAN DOWNGRADE TO D0K2 LOLLIPOP :
******REMEMBER Disable Reactivation lock (see picture below) and activate USB debuggin, Before DO this procedure!!*******
1-Download the DOK2 BOOTLOADER HERE https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087008410 and the D0K2 modem here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24269982087008409 ( i did use 3.0.9 Odin) >>>>>>>>>thanks to @xoxo_xdagirl91 for post the links!
2- Download The 5.1.1 rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-tmobile/development/rom-maximum-ovrdrive-v15-1-1-t3196653 its an awsome rom by @OvrDriVE and so Thanks for that!
3-Put the ovrDrive 5.1.1 rom into the external sd card together with the upgrade. (because need erase all in the internal memory, remember, make a back up of your data in the phone or in the internal memory if you want).
4-now GO to your TWRP and wipe cache-dalvik-system-data-INTERNALmemory x3 ..........DONT TOUCH YOUR EXTERNAL SD, REMEMBER THE OVRDRIVE 5.1.1 ROM IS THERE!
******REMEMBER WHEN YOU ERASE YOUR INTERNAL MEMORY JUST REBOOT AGAIN IN RECOVERY, each time you erase yor internal memory, when reboot in TWRP you see the warning and said that you need to click in "never show this screen during boot again" just click there and swipe to allow Modifications or the stock recovery will rewrite again. TURN OF YOUR PHONE!
5-GO TO DOWNLOAD MODE TO USE Odin and flash the 5.1.1 bootloader FIRST, WHEN FINISH, Flash the modem ..... REMEMBER: put the bootloader in the BL section FIRST AND FLASH & FOLLOWING THE modem in the CP section of odin
6- When finish the step 5, go to your recovery TWRP>install>go to ext sd>flash the ROM first, when finish, wipe dalvik, cache and reboot again in TWRP
7- Just flash the othe part of the rom........the upgrade zip file, when finish just reboot the system aaaaaaaand
WALAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!
I DID IT EXACTLY AS DIRECTED AND I HAVE A CLEAN OVRdrive
rooted rom in 5.1.1. Now you can flash via ODIN the original firmware on 5.1.1:good::good:
Just wanted to share my experience for posterity. Here's what I did (and promptly undid). I don't know much about anything, so feel free to laugh and/or point out where I went wrong:
1. Installed the stock N910TUVS2EPG2 from Odin on my 910T.
2. Flashed SuperSU System Mode (which is wrong, I think...should have done systemless, right?)
3. Got the scary yellow "set warranty bit kernel" message and nothing else on the screen.
4. After a couple of attempted reboots, I got the message saying something to the effect of unauthorized software being installed and I'd have to send it in to get it repaired.
5. After a couple of reboots (pulled the battery and tried turning it on again a couple of time), it went through a full boot. After the boot was complete, I got another message within the OS about unauthorized software.
6. Opened SuperSU, unrooted and restored stock recovery.
Everything seems fine now, like nothing ever happened. Calls, data, wifi, and all that are working. I'll wait for the experts to chime in before I attempt this again. I'm just happy it works...at least as far as I can tell.

Those scary red and yellow warnings are standard. Just lets you know the phone has been modified, nothing to worry about. To keep it simple, you can use either systemmode or systemless. And of course you will get a message saying the phone is using an unauthorized software, because you just flashed a custom ROM. Haha. That only pops up when you check for system updates.

Glad that everything is running smooth for you! I normally like to run stock, install TWRP, root, and then tweak whatever I don't like. Right now I'm running an S7E Port located HERE. Process requires a little work; 1st) flash the ROM, 2) flash kernel, 3) flash data fix, 4) ??? , 5) profit. :laugh:

That is correct; presently you cannot downgrade from EPG2 to a lower version due to security policy changes. Maybe there will be a workaround soon; however, I have 0 issues on EPG2. :good:

Could you list the exact steps. I would like to try that ROM as well, considering we don't have any MM ports for our T-Mo Note 4. How is it working so far?

Sure bud.
1) Download the M6 ROM from Dev-Host or from MediaFire.
Put this file in your external SD card.
2) Download the BeastMode kernel.
Put this file in your external SD card.
3) Download the Data Fix - MM_DataFixs7rebootmenu.zip.
Put this file in your external SD card.
4) Boot into recovery. Make a backup of your current ROM just in case. :fingers-crossed:
5) Go into Advanced Wipe (if you're using TWRP) and wipe dalvik, system, data, cache, internal storage (or whichever options are available in the recovery you are using).
6) Flash M6 Rom from Step 1. Do not restart.
7) Flash kernel from Step 2. Do not restart.
8) Flash data fix from Step 3.
9) Now wipe cache and dalvik cahe. Restart.
Once you restart, it will look like your phone crashed or is stuck in a bootloop, it's not. Let it sit there for about 10-15 minutes and it will boot into the setup screen. Good luck. :good:

[Q] [HELP] I did a mistake while rooting

Hello,
I need your help because I did an error while rooting my U Play.
I've successfully unlocked my bootloader, and then I flashed the twrp recovery, installed the supersu zip, and I was pretty much tired and now I'm not sure of what I've done but I'm left with a phone with access to download mode, bootloader mode and custom recovery, but no rom on the phone.
I am on a single sim europe, with Orange 1.30.89.6
I've tried to flash an europe rom but I got this message "cid mismatched", because it was a non orange rom I assume.
Now, I've no rom to flash, no backup. And no idea how to get a rom.
Can you please help me to find a rom and a guide to finish to root my phone then please ?
My girlfriend have exactly the same phone than me, stock everythning. I don't know if it is possible to "extract" her stock rom...

First of all, you should do backup before flashing any third-party zip, rom etc, it is a common sense.
I'll upload a stock image backup [Orange, 1.30.89.6] for you, please flash separate .img file through TWRP recovery, you can follow this guide.
https://htcfz.wordpress.com/2018/01/22/htc-flash-rom-twrp-img/
In last, I suggest that use Magisk to get root access for HTC U Play.

Thx, that gives me some hope that at least one can root the device.

Welp, I searched, didn't find a relevant answer. XT1625 help wanted.

Bought my phone in Fry's, had stock nougat. Order of events that led to my current predicament:
1. Wanted to root.
2. Installed TWRP, tried pushing supersu without a new kernel, didnt do so systemless.
3. Tried again systemless.

6. Driver on pc no longer recognizes phone to the point of being able to see system storage, and also cannot open TWRP anymore.
7. The link above is MM. I wanted at least Nougat, since, i got used to some features.... like being able to freaking use hands free calling via bluetooth in my cars.
8. I just want to be able to see internal storage again, and access TWRP, so i can install Lineage and get past this horrible nightmare.
You guys are awesome, I am years behind most of you when it comes to these processes, I have to read line by line what to do in these tutorials, I dont even understand half of the acronyms, or understand half of the terms.
Thanks in advance.
P.S. Just to clarify, marshmellow is working.

Yours really doesn't ask you to upgrade to Nougat like 10 times a day? Mine just must be pushy.
First try: Settings > About phone > system updates
If that doesn't work post what build version of MM you are now on. (also on the about phone page)

Bought my phone in Fry's, had stock nougat. Order of events that led to my current predicament:
1. Wanted to root.
2. Installed TWRP, tried pushing supersu without a new kernel, didnt do so systemless.

Off-topic, kind of, but I'm trying to flash ANY recent version of TWRP on my XT1625. I unlocked the bootloader, but try to flashing twrp in fastboot mode always returns an error: "(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt"
What twrp version did you use and where can I get it, please.

So I went through and fastboot flashed all those files from your link to Motorola support.
It wouldn't let me relock the bootloader with fastboot oem lock
it did lock with fastboot flashing lock
I was able to reboot, now of course with a verification error boot msg
Connected to wifi and it auto-prompted the Nougat ota update.
Just completed the Nougat install currently on build NPJ25.93-14
Maybe you just need to reflash those files from the Motorola site, and connect to wifi for the 700+MB download?
there's another security update to NPJ25.93-14-4 available after you get back to nougat. Good luck

My xt1625 was boot-unlocked, and I was try the same twrp version you mentioned. I continued researching, and found that, despite the error msg, twrp was flashed correctly. I just needed to go to recovery directly from the bootloader screen. Thanks for your help.

EDIT : Ok guys i figured out what to do, the phone wasnt being detected with MTP unless i switched it to charge only, then back to MTP, now i have TWRP back on, and will be trying out lineage. Thanks for the input, it helped!
It's like i said, the one in the link, its 6.0.1. , the kernel is 3.10.84-g061c37c
No, it never pushes notifications about updates with this stock rom posted on xdad, and no, i cannot use the menus to prompt a manual update.
Like i said, i can no longer even access TWRP, my recovery screen says no command, which i can bypass by holding power and clicking volume up, then releasing power, but its not TWRP, and i cannot access internal storage to put anything on it anymore.

Hmm, what 6.0.1. build do you have (if you scroll down to the bottom of Settings>About Phone, there should be an entry for Build Number)? I recall that for US devices you need to be on MPJ24.139-48/49 or MPJ24.139-64 to be eligible for the OTA update to Nougat. Any other different firmware build may not give you an update as the build's not recognised by the update server for your region/software channel.
However, as you flashed the MM firmware onto your device when you previously had Nougat, I would advise against taking the OTA update route. Depending on what version of Nougat you had before you tried to root, you may hard brick your device if you try to flash the OTA, since flashing MM firmware may not downgrade your bootloader, as such you'd be flashing an old OTA onto a newer Nougat bootloader, which is a really bad idea. If you can remember what stock firmware you had (or at least what security patch it was), we can try to locate the correct firmware for you to flash and safely get you back onto the update path.
As for the recovery, that sounds like the stock recovery you have on your device, which if you re-flashed the stock ROM, will replace TWRP. You may have to re-flash TWRP.
On a related note, on Marshmallow, you do not need to flash a custom kernel - you could flash TWRP and your choice of root manager. On stock Nougat (on the G4/Plus devices), you must flash a custom kernel, else you will likely bootloop as you experienced. Here's a rooting guide for G4/Plus Nougat devices: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mo...de-root-moto-g4-plus-supersu-android-t3587918

That error is normal, as far as I know - the TWRP image is not cryptographically signed by Motorola, so that message seems to be mainly informational and alerting you that you are flashing unsigned images in fastboot (which you are), since fastboot is mainly used to flash signed images. Once you've flashed TWRP, reboot straight to recovery to ensure the TWRP is not overwritten by the stock recovery. Afterwards, you can boot as normal.
Be careful to flash the TWRP version/architecture for what you want to do - e.g. if you wish to flash 64 bit custom ROMs, you must use a 64 bit TWRP version. Attempting to flash 64 bit custom ROMs via 32 bit TWRP may give you an error 255 otherwise.

Stuck with flashing custom rom

Hello everyone, first of all am a newbie and I am trying to flash my Note3 with custom rom, I installed twrp using Odin, first I faced an error that Everytime Odin will say pass but phone will boot normal, how ever I find the solution by unchecking auto reboot in Odin, after pass I'll unplug the device, pull off battery then restart and it will get me to term recovery and it works fine afterwards. I tried installing few custom ROMs like magma nx, dark lord x etc but after everything done phone get stuck in bootloop. First I did the same and got stuck then I did a stock rom flash and got the phone working again, how ever I tried flashing again with magma nx and it got away from Samsung logo to pyeongchang edition logo and got stuck there, all the roms I tried give me same error. Am using twrp 2.8.7.0. I had also rooted using SuperSU, how can I get past this? Any help will be appreciated.. thank you

FAQ
Q: I have bootloop right after I flash the ROM
2. In first boot, when asked to "Consent for Diagnostic Report", you forgot to uncheck it. As written in OP, you have to "uncheck" the Consent for Diagnostic Report.
To solve it:
1. Power off phone
2. Remove sim card
3. Boot to ROM.
4. Go to settings/general management
5. Disable "Report Diagnostic Info"
6. Power off Device.
7. Insert sim card.
8. Boot up phone and continue using it
Managed to make them work already, thanks for the help bro.. appreciate it
I managed to work around the issue of bootloop bro, it had something to do with the kernal , I already flashed to magma and it is working now, how ever I was curious that each time when I restart the phone, it took a bit time to load up, like note 3 logo first, then magma note 8 logo, then after that it says optimizing apps and actually it shows around 240 apps or so, is it normal or is there any workarounds for the same? (How ever, boots up fine but boot up time is around 7-12 min approx)
