Firstly there is no fastboot on galaxy devices secondly knox trips when the device "boots" with custom kernel or recovery

So no way to install xposed without tripping?

I think xposed is not even working with samsung roms yet

flashify on S6?

Now that we have root without tripping Knox thanks to ping-pong root I'd like to get to flashing custom zips..... Specifically the xposed framework.
Does anybody know if we can just use flashify to flash stuff without having to install a custom recovery which would trip Knox? I sure as hell hope so, i'm itching to get back to the Custom fun.

Indeed. Xposed does not work on Touchwiz Lollipop.

well flashify has been sucessfully been used to install recovery without tripping knox on note 3 so we can hope for it
So there's no way to flash twrp without root? Flashify doesn't because its a tar file
Flashfire can flash twrp tar file.
@bhavstech in my opinion flashing custom recovery always trip knox.

help before flashing cyanogenmod 12.

I got a galaxy note 8. i rooted using chainfire auto root. then used flashify to flash twrp. now my question is i heard you need to unlock bootloader before flashing a rom. how do i know if mine is locked or not. i have the GT-N5110 model if that helps.
also i cyanogenmod as safe as googles stock rom. and where do i get the Gapps.zip thx.
If the TWRP that you flashed with Flashify is working, probably your bootloader is unlocked.
Flash it directly after installing twrp and root.

Want to unlock my bootloader + installing TWRP

Hello all,
I am receiving tomorrow my new Samsung S6 and i want to know some things.
- Unlocking bootloader (how to and link?) - have searched a bit and you need ODIN. but what is the best version etc
- Installing TWRP3.0 (how-to) - where to find the latest TWRP for samsung s6
And than one of the most important question, is there a stock android that doesent have any buys and fc's????
Bootloader is not locked on S6 (except AT&T variant)
You can get latest ODIN from here;
http://dl.sammobile.com/Odin3_v3.10.7.zip
If you want to install TWRP on it;
1- Update it to Marsmallow if you haven't
2- Install this TWRP via ODIN;
http://arter97.com/browse/S6/kernel/13.1/g920fi/arter97-recovery-g920fi-13.1-twrp_3.0.2-0.tar.md5
3- Boot up to TWRP and flash this ZIP before do anything on TWRP;

Wouldn't this order make more sense so he had a backup in case something goes wrong?
Also, here are the threads for TWRP and SuperSU for the S6 on XDA:

No, and there probably won't be any for a long time, but there are lots of TouchWiz-based custom ROMs.
so basicly i dont need any customezation? because you telling me there will not be released a custom stock rom? Even a CM13 rom
thats poor services!
Uhm

Correct. The only custom ROMs availability now and the foreseeable future are based on TouchWiz, not AOSP Android or CyanogenMod.

He need dm-verity disabled boot image for working TWRP backups. That's why I suggest him to install this ZIP.
While reading topics on the internet (google)
If you THE smartphone update to 6.0 you do not need to unlock the bootloader. is this correct?
For now i will not use TWRP because there isent a proper ROM for the S6. is this because the exynoss CPU? because QSD cpu's have always the better support for CM..

As I said before, there's no bootloader unlock because bootloader is factory-unlocked on Samsung devices.
If you want root, you should to use TWRP for install the latest SuperSU.
Yes, there's no CM ROM for Exynos 7420 right now. Maybe in future? Who knows...
is there a twrp that works because the original twrp that i download form twrp.me isent working getting a weird issue: recovery is not seandroid enforcing

i tried to install it, used the AP method in Odin.
But when i want to go in TWRP recovery i get the stock recovery! How to solve this issue
I'm having this issue as well on the T-Mobile variant. I have tried the unchecking auto reboot option in Odin and manually going to recovery. When I successfully flash according to Odin, I can't not get past the Recovery is not Seandroid enforcing boot.

Root S6 latest firmware?

Greetings.. I have problem rooting latest firmware g920fxxs4dpge. Is there any working root method? I wanna flash custom rom to improve battery life. Cf Auto root cause error in Odin. Thank you
Flash the latest TWRP recovery onto your phone and install supersu from the recovery.
I think there isn't stable supersu.zip file for my firmware.

It's universal;

Yes, ok... but after flash twrp trough Odin .11, process pass but remain stock recovery on smartphone.
I think that problem is locked bootloader. How to check it if is it locked or unlocked?
This device uses dm-verity!
This means that swiping to allow system modifications will prevent you from being able to boot if you are using the stock kernel. In order to bypass dm-verity's boot prevention, you will have to install a kernel that has dm-verity disabled in the fstab.

[Q] Is it possible to Flash .ZIP without root?

I have Galaxy S6 (920F) with Android Nougat.
I have managed to install TWRP Recovery on my device and it is allowing me to install .zip files. But my phone is Not ROOTED.
So my question is,
If I flash .zip(s) now that are made for my device, will it be installed successfully?
or my device will stuck on bootloop?
Well, if you are flashing some files into directories that don't require root to access, it will work.
But lets say you want to flash ported system app (like message app). It will not work, since it requires flashing into \system and that directory requires root to be accessed and modified. :good:
