Not able to root or install TWRP on Galaxy S6 5.1.1 (SM-G920I) at all.

Hi everyone,
Trying to root my Galaxy s6 SM-G920I India version but no luck. Had to restore stock firmware thrice today. Every time I used ODIN 3.10.6 with Unibase or Unikernal it would say kernel is not SEAndroid enforcing and stick to a bootloop. If I use the CF auto root method it says Recovery is not SEAndroid enforcing and again bootloop.
Trying the alternative method of installing TWRP also does not work and I get the same recovery enforcing message and bootloop. Please help. R/L is off.

I had the same problem with Indian firmware. The latest one.
I quit trying to get root.

I have the issue too guys. The newest UAE firmware(CSC XSG) is not letting the TWRP stick after flashing with Odin. I've asked for help over in the Help & Troubleshooting section. Hopefully we can figure this out.

I read your blog. The thing is that I can't root the India firmware. Is the firm I'm using and I don't want to change it cause it's working really well.
But seems that is unable to root. And I want to erase some bloatware to make it lighter
Thanks anyway for your help

When you rooted your S6 G920F that time was your phone having 5.1.1 android and DOL5 bootloader.

I tried this method on this website but no luck.????

There is a thread on xda about how to root DOL5 formware by an INDIAN USER USING G925I.
Not all had success with it. I would suggest sticking with DOK9 firmware and wait for a few days as android 6.0.1 has started rolling already in Korea for s6(both variants)
The changes between DOK9 and DOL5 is not huge and not worth an upgrade

I have rooted my s6 today only with 5.1.1 Android and DOL5 bootloader. I flashed twrp
down below is link. You will face a little bit of problem while going in recovery but dont worry you will be able to enter after some tries. When u enter there flash super su 2.66 and u have rooted your s6.

Need help unbricking my Honor 6 L04

So after more or less randomly trying different things, and fearing that I might only have made matters worse, I hope someone can help:
I have got a Huawei Honor 6 H60-L04 (bootloader unlocked and rooted) and was, until two days ago, running KitKat with the B114 build and cwm recovery. Since Marshmallow has officially benn available for the Honor 6 for a while now, I decided to finally update.
I flashed stock recovery and updated to Marshmallow build B820 via update.app on sdcard. Booting worked fine, however I was unrooted (ofc) so I decided to flash SuperSU (2.76 [latest stable]).
So I flashed twrp 3.0.2.0. and so far all good. Still no problems booting. Then I flashed SuperSU (according to twrp successfully) and rebooted, just to find myself stuck on bootscreen. That is not the first one you get in bootloop but the animated honor logo. Well ****.
Since then I tried many things, wiped multiple times (data is unimportant, but unfortunately I don't have a working twrp backup, please don't lecture me on this, i know -.-), flashed almost any stock ROM I could get my hands on. In twrp I get this Error:
Could not find 'META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file". >"Error installing zip file". "Failed"​Somewhere on the way I got
error! Func NO : 9 (FUNC_BOOT_KERNEL) Error NO : 2​while booting, that's gone though.
I'm at the point now where I can install B820 via update.app on sdcard, see the installation progress succeed to 100%, reboot, and again, find myself stuck on animated honor logo.
I honestly have no idea what I can do, I hope someone here does. I'll happily provide any further information you might need.

Try and wipe everything, then reflash TWRP. Good luck ?

I did that, I lost count how many times. I wiped everything, clean twrp flash, still get the "meta-inf" error message. Maybe someone can provide me with a clean twrp backup for B820? that might actually work.

Ok, after making a fool of myself, I finally found the culprit. Turns out I have to wait a couple of minutes after a new installation for my phone to boot. And all the time I thought it was soft bricked -.-
However, I does get soft bricked whenever I try to flash SuperSU. Root = bricked. Unroot = unbricked. Anyone got an idea how to get SuperSU to work? I really don't want to go back to unrooted...

I used supersu 2.62 with MM.
After install i update supersu with Google play.
Supersu update itself the binary to 2.76.
It works with B820 ans now with B860.

G920T : "dm-verity verification failed..." Help.

Hello, I currently have a G920T that had been working alright for quite some time. The problem is that yesterday while using it normally, it suddenly froze. Thought it was the app, but saw it was the phone itself. Thus, I decide to turn it on again. When I do that, the phone does not continue after the logo and has the LED light white, while blinking on an off. When I manage to enter the Android Recovery menu it gives me the error shown in the title. The phone's rooted and was unlocked, so I could use it with AT&T.
I attempted doing a full reset, upgraded it to Nougat, and I am still stuck. Any help's appreciated in advanced.

Would like to say, when I installed the official Nougat Upgrade for my phone, upon starting, it began installing some things and then preceded to start Deleting. Afterwards, it just froze again. Did I do something wrong?

To get past this issue you have to Root with SuperSU, this will patch the Kernel to disable DM-Verity and will allow you to boot normally.
If you don't want to get rooted then reflash stock firmware via odin. never do OTA updates as i have always say the come "Dirty"
EDIT: Sorry didn't read you were rooted, just re-root again with SuperSU (To get your Kernel patched again) for DM-Verity

So I use (what I previously used) cf-autoroot again? I ask this, since it seems their website have the recovery for marshmallow version and not for nougat (if I am not able to downgrade to 6).

Root with TWRP and superSU zip, i don't recommend CF-AutoRoot
Before flashing the Zip do the following on a Terminal in TWRP
Mount o- bind /dev/urandom /dev/random

When I use CF-Autoroot and attempt to boot it into recovery I get the following message, "recovery is not seandroid enforcing".
So I'd take I try installing a custom ROM first before attempting to start it in recovery?

Oh, that means CF-AutoRoot has not updated to work on 6.0 & 7.0 bootloader for G920T (It is updated and working on 6.0.1 & 7.0 for G920F)
Flash the stock ROM again. After that, flash TWRP and than flash latest SuperSU zip via TWRP.

I tried doing that, but wouldn't get past the main ROM's screen. I tried a custom ROM then (I think nemesis or such) and lasted longer, but again froze and loops with the white LED light on.
Any suggestions?

Root S7/ S7 Edge & Unroot Easy (Updated: 02/09/2020)

This is an updated root and unroot method for the s7/s7 edge.
I updated the zip file with the latest eng boot
Uploaded the latest stock files
Credit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-s7-s7edge-oreo-nougat-t3819616
Use V10 Odin Files this will allow you to root the s7/s7 sdge on the latest firmware. (02/09/2020)
Directions:
This works for Oreo And Nougat Roms
As always there is a chance of bricking your phone
1. Download and extract S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root.zip
2. Reboot your phone to download mode
3. Inside the S7_Oreo_Nougat_Adb_Advanced_Root folder you will find an Odin_Firmware folder. Use Odin and flash the Eng Boot Image for your
phone
4. Once phone is rebooted and connected to computer click on the cmd-here.exe and type root.bat in the command window and hit enter
5. Follow directions on the command window
6. You can only use system root on Oreo
7. Once root is done and root bat closes leave your phone alone for a few minutes it may reboot a couple of times
8. Sprint Users This should work for you as well just let me know if your phone reboots with eng boot.img installed like it did on nougat while try too run the root.bat. I may need to change some things
9. With this system root do not update su binary if in anyway you get something asking you to update binaries ignore it. You can also disable notifications about updating binaries. This will not affect su app
10. Don't flash any superuser zips in recovery that are not made by me
