Here are the rules of this thread...
Dont ask me when I am going to make a H/K mod. I will work on it as soon as I can. Prolly on Friday Night.
Dont ask me to make mods... There are a lot of other developers that could throw in 15 minutes of there time to help out. Thats how we used to do it back in the day! but I will eventually make Power Menu and Tether Theft if no one steps up
Dont ***** about the download speeds if they slow down.
You can ask questions related to the firmware if you need to.
Dont flame someone because they cant read.

Your phone is not bricked...
Bootlooped maybe... But not bricked...
Your not going to get ADB until you can get into recovery.
To do that your going to need to hold Volume and Power Up unti the phone reboots then QUICKLY hold Volume down. That will get you back into the bootloader. From there you can go to recovery and try again.

Strange man. At least you are rocking!!! :good:
I would recommend the firmware though...
The ROMS have files that work with the new firmware, like for radio and all.

Im trying to stay awake until the Odex is uploaded.
Its seems very smooth...

Quick!
Waits the best root uninstaller?
I need to get rid of the bloat but dont have the time to make a ROM.

So either update firmware and flash this or flash stock recovery and take the OTA?

No it means the system partition is writable so you can edit system files from within the operating system. You have full 100% root. See thread from flar2

Try a different mirror. I got two in the op. If that doesn't work then try a different machine or isp.

Actually it doesnt require a log in.
Your seeing that message because the ROM is not fully uploaded yet.
Look at the line right above "Download" and you will see the words "ROM Uploading"
It should be done in about 10 minutes.
Once its done the link will be unlocked and open to the public.

I couldn't tell you. I never use xposed. The last I heard xposed needs to be fixed for lollipop.

Here is Rick's ROM for the VZW S6. Thanks @scrosler for the ROM base and @Gunthermic for the mods. ​

There we go! Teamwork!
Good job man!
Xposed does not work with 64 bit processors currently, but there is a workaround for lollipop which doesn't help us. If I'm incorrect on any of this please let me know.
Great to see another rom! I just want to have someone disable the safe headphone warning stuff...please?

Per my understanding you are correct. Not to mention it would need to be deodexed which isn't mentioned so I'll assume its not.
Thanks for the rom @Misterxtc!

I'll be happy to do it if I can find instructions for the mod. Things are going to be a bit crazy around here for a few because I'm picking up a new puppy today to welcome in our home so I'm not sure how soon I can get to this. Most likely I won't have much time during the day as I did in the past. I'm with you 100% on disabling the volume warning.
Gonna ask a noob question.....
If i flash this with flash fire, will it trip knox?

No - it's my understanding that you would have to do something to the bootloader to trip knox

Gotcha...
I am fairly experienced with flashing roms, but i am new to Verizon and new to flash fire. I came from T-mobile/HTC and never had to use flash fire.

This thread is the most recent resource I'm aware of. Again, the 64x is the current hangup though so some hurdles need yet to be cleared. But there is still useful info in there as it pertains to 5.x Xposed so maybe you'll be the guy to make it happen. By all means no hurry, we're all on the front end of this thing right now anyway.
Also, congrats on the new pup. I had a rough time much like yourself recently re: the long time family pet. Glad to hear things are back on the upswing. :good:
Hello!
Does this rom have a Brazilian Portuguese language?
When you guys say that the rom tripped Knox, means that the fingerprint scanner should work or not?
The Fingerprint Scanner still working on this rom?
Thanks for all and sorry about my simple doubts! I'm newbie...

It's normal and nothing to worry about.
Just unlock the bootloader, flash twrp and use the root method of your choice. I recommend magisk.
Thank you

What is it you want from s off?
You'd have to spend $$ to purchase "sunshine" and judging by your lack of experience you could blow your phone up and kill everyone in a 10 meter radius.
Unless you know what you're doing don't mess with s off.
Sunshine

You don't need s off to install a custom rom.
Since your rooted and have TWRP installed you just need to download the custom rom of your choice and flash it per the developers instructions.
I suggest @LeeDroid 's rom it's the best of the best IMHO.
LeeDroid U11 ROM thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/development/rom-leedroid-v1-0-0-beta-fast-stable-t3623657
Read and re-read the OP carefully and you'll be fine.
About halfway (or more) down the OP you'll see "A quick whistle stop tour of flashing a custom build". It'll tell you how to flash the rom. Search the thread for answers to any questions before asking. During installation of LeeDroid you'll have many choices... choose carefully.
Download Lee's latest version from @Droidit! 's r127 Drive link Here:

MAKE A TWRP BACKUP BERFORE FLASHING!​
When a newer version is released the guyz (like Droidit! ) around there will post download links in the thread.
A must read thread:
[COLLECTION] HTCU U11 – RUU/Firmware/Recovery/OTA/Backups
https://forum.xda-developers.com/u11/how-to/collection-htcu-u11-ruu-firmware-t3612048
A lot of information and helpfull links for how to's... Read and re-read it.
It has a spreadsheet link to "HTC U11–RUU/Firmware/Recovery/OTA/Backups" downloads.
Spreadsheet Link:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15JL3tRWDSVOUKo_revEYtQ_tRcOSJ0vWcvk8a7TK8Hk/htmlview
A couple of questions:
Which version U11 do you have?
Do you have ADB enviroment setup on your PC?
If not, You can go to the 15 seconds ADB Installer thread here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
For me ADB is a must.
Hope this all makes sense and helps you out.

Thanks friend, I'll try the suggestions
if something does not work out as expected I can use the back up to revert the process and leave the OS as it came from the factory, right?
