Rooting and TWRP on Galaxy S6 920I version. - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was able to gain root no problem at all but nothing works with getting TWRP to install. I found the right version flashed with Odin and it never boots. I've flashed the kernal as well for this device and nothing. I have the stock ROM so I'm good there but what do I need to do to get TWRP to install on this thing?

Unable to install any custom rom on my SM-N915FY

Hi all,
I have an Galaxy Note Edge type SM-N915FY with custom rom installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/development/rom-micky387-rom-v1-0-t2998972
My phone is running on android 5.0.1 with kernel: 3.10.30-andrei-N915F-BOC6-v1.0
Baseband-version: N915FYXXU1BOB5
Yesterday I was trying to install the newer custom rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/development/rom-micky387lollifamous5-1-1v1-t3200849
To make sure this will work, I needed to flash the TWRP , after I tried to flashed this using Odin, the phone got in a Bootloop. So I flashed the older TWRP again and my phone is booting again.
So I tried to clear the cache, but then I get the error: Unable to mount \cache, I didn't know how to solve this so I reflashed the TWRP again through Odin, but still the same issue.
Do you guys know how I could install another custom rom? My phone is rooter, just to make sure.
Thanks in advance.
nobody?

To move on to newer custom ROMs (based on 5.1.1), you need to download and flash Stock 5.1.1, which you can download from here, then you can root it, to get the necessary files for doing so, check this thread out.
Credits for TWRP, new ROMs and the possibility of root on 5.1.1 go to micky387.
You Saved me. After I flashed the original android 5.1.1 I was able to flash TWRP and install custom rom.
Many thanks!

Galaxy S5 900J stock rom

Hi, my friends dad purchased a galaxy s5 (scl23 - sm900j, running 4.4.2 )from some website and its performance has been atrocious. Me and my friend have attempted to install a custom rom but have ran into issues. At first we tried to flash twrp through odin but that failed so then we tried to install twrp through twrp manager (we gained root through towel root). The main problem happened when he rebooted into the bootloader/recovery screen where he got the "could not do normal boot" message. Google says that to resolve this you flash the stock rom, so we tried googling for that but not even sammobile has the 900j stock rom. Does anyone any way to fix the problem/ what/where the 900j rom is?
edit: i think i might have found it, using SCL23 brings up results even though 900J doesnt.
follow up question: say we are able to boot back to stock rom, are there any tailored guides for the 900J on how to flash?

[Q] flashed Twrp 3.0.0.0 on S6 g920f Marshmallow

Hey, I flashed twrp 3.0.0 via odin on my s6 g920f 6.0.1 rooted device (custom kernel) and now I can't boot into recovery, my phone works well, also download mode, just recovery gives me Recovery is not seandroid enforcing and stuck there.
I know this message is normal and not concerning but it's still not booting into recovery, I flashed the wrong version?
Try reflashing stock 6.01 ROM via Odin. ?
latest official TWRP (3.0.2-0) does not support 6.0 bootloader, so that's why you are stuck on boot.
until a new fixed version is released, you can try to use 2 alternatives :
1. @arter97 version , thread here , download page here
2. idlekernel version , download page here

IDK.. my phone works pretty good, it still starts and no problem at all. only recovery isn't booting.
I don't want to format it and flash stock again just because of it.
djcristi said:
i heard that you need to flash custom kernel , that stock kernel cannot boot TWRP, because of 6.0.1 bootloader.
. I am on the same case now, looking for solution because i don't want to use custom kernel, just TWRP and root it using Supersu.

Actually I am running SpaceX MM kernel(auto root)... so twrp should be fine.
i edited my previous post, you have there solution.

Yeah and it worked. Also flashed xposed, when I installed greenify module it caused bootloops so I flashed xposed uninstaller, I guess no xposed for me

xposed problem G920F

Hey
I recently rooted my s6, and flashed the xtrestolite rom. Im currently having some issues trying to flash xposed. I followed wanam's tutorial on flashing xposed(flashing oldboot and newboot via odin), but after flashing the newboot, my phone keeps getting stuck on the samsung logo bootscreen. Any suggestions?
There's no need to flash oldboot&newboot anymore. This TWRP is working with the M bootloader;
http://arter97.com/browse/S6/kernel/13.1/g920fi/arter97-recovery-g920fi-13.1-twrp_3.0.2-0.tar.md5
Thanks, flashed the new recovery. Im still getting the bootloop, though...
Try flash Arter Kernel o Hacker Kernel
still getting the bootloop, even with the provided kernel and twrp.

TWRP on rooted J700p

I have a Samsung Galaxy J700p (boost Mobile) on software version J700PVPS1AQD1 that I rooted using CF Auto Root. I want to install TWRP recovery, but I don't know if being already rooted changes anything. All the guides I see show only how to install TWRP and root at the same time through Odin. I want to be extra cautious about this, I don't want to have to re-flash the stock ROM again.
