Hello. I purchased SM-G920TZKAXAR , Unlocked US version
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones/SM-G920TZKAXAR
Then I tried to root it by following this guide: http://joyofandroid.com/root-samsung-galaxy-s6/ and using Method 2 via TWRP and then flashing cf-autoroute from https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ . I downloaded zerofltetmo LRX22G.G920TUVU1AOC9 for SM-G920T.
my process:
1. Copied CF-Auto-Root-zerofltetmo-zerofltetmo-smg920t onto phone
2. entered Downloading mode and then connected Odin
3. PHone rebooted into TWRP and then I proceeded to flash CF-Auto-Root-zerofltetmo-zerofltetmo-smg920t.
As a result I get bootloop.
I tried downloading stock T-mobile firmware and flashing to via ODIN but it FAILED in Odin/Download mode due to SW rev check not validating. I tried to use different version of TWRP, 2.8.7.2 , 2.8.7.1 and 2.8.7.0 but bootloop continues
What can do I to fix this? I don't know what else I can try and I can't locate a stock firmware for SM-G920TZKAXAR if such exist.
Thanks!
Hi,
I was trying to root my phone and install custom rom but i cant.
I have tried CF-auto root, and unibase v2 and also triedd to flash TWRP but no luck.
When i tired CF-autoroot, im stuck in Galaxy S6 powered by android screen with message saying Recovery is not seandroid and it bootloops continuously.
When i try with unibase v2 and i tried to flash TWRP and SU method, but i end up same as above. I cannot even flash TWRP(3.0.0.0 and 3.0.01 and older versions too)
One way i found to root is by using G920F version's CF-autoroot where i successfully rooted my phone and boots to homescreen. But i cannot flash TWRP or any other recovery using all methods(Flashify, Rashr, Flashfire and even TWRP manager). The same bootloop repeats when flashing.
Please help me in this issue, as i terribly want to root my phone since stock does not give me battery back up and i cant even get 2.30 hours SOT in it.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I just rooted my phone using odin and flashing the file CF Root SM J500FN. I installed twrp above it and it is all okay, I also installed xposed. But once I reboot my phone in TWRP normally then it doesn't boot anymore. It goes in bootloop on the twrp screen. I fixed the problem flashing the original firmware but I'd like to mod my phone. Is there a way to mod it without getting bootlops? :S
EDIT: I solved the problem installing the new TWRP 3.0.0 for our J5. It is stable and it doesn't have the reboot while TWRP Bug.

Hi im trying to update my samsung G920F to a marshmallow but any attempt to leaves it in a bootloop. Ive sucessfully installed twrp however when installing a custom rom the device is stuck at the Samsung loading screen. Ive tried usuing diffrent versions of odin, twrp and also tried to install stock firmwares for anroid 5 and 6 via odin but all fail. Ive restored the phone back to android 5.1.1 using smart switch and then attemped to root it with CF-root so then i can try install the recovery using the app but after flashing cf root with odin the phone is stuck in a boot loop again with 'Kernel is not Seandroid Enforcing ' on the top left of the screen.
Do i need to do anything before i flash the rom or twrp or root?
and does anyone know how to update the G920F to android 6?
thanks
Which error do you get when you try to flash a stock rom over Odin?
