im running a stock firmware on samsung S6 SM-G920F after fixing a phone looping.
Currently its Andriod version 5.0.2 and Im unable to do an over the air upgrade which is fine.
Its rooted with kingRoot and has custom recovery TWRP which works.
Im unable to install xda-framework as this is a stock ROM.
Tried out a few ROMS but it keeps looping.
Are there any custom roms which work with 5.0.2 and allow the xda-framework to install?
Maybe there are 5.0.2 Roms but not much. I would Art least recommend to upgrade to 5.1.1 wenden you don't want 6.0.1. for 5.1.1 there are more Roms to find.

Hey
How can I flash a custom rom on the new bootloader??? I installed 5.1.1 to my G920F but I want a custom rim 5.0.2
ANYONE?!?!?!?!?
As far as i know its not possible because of new, locked bootloader so if you are allready in 5.1.1 there is nothing you can do (root, flash custom roms etc.) yet...

hi guys,
i'm on stock 5.1.1. On a s6 sm-g920f, rooted with unikernel, installed twrp. now i'd like to install axis rom which is 5.0.2 based.
with their RLS3 release they've noted: "NOTICE: This ROM no longer flashes a kernel! This means it uses the kernel that is already loaded on your device. If you flashed a 5.1.1 ROM and are planning on flashing RLS3, you MUST also flash a 5.0.2 kernel.".
1. Is there kernel I could use from glewarne (not allowed to post links yet )?
2. is even possible or a good idea to install a 5.0.2 custom ROM (in my case axis) while I'm already on 5.1.1?
3. if the answer is yes would this be the procedure: install AXIS ROM in TWRP, install 5.0.2. Kernel in TWRP, REBOOT? or do I have to downgrade bootloader, modem etc.?
Please help and excuse me for being a noob
Come on guys. Didn't realize my question was that stupid anything??
It won't work. A 5.0.2 ROM needs a 5.0.2 bootloader. And atm downgrading the bootloader is a no-go.
Thanks!
Hey hoping someone can just help answer my question on flashing my phone.
Currently I have a rooted G920F S6 running 5.1.1.
What I want is a bloatware free minimalistic ROM, so I chose to install is XtreStoLite 3.3.1 FINAL Marshmallow Android 6.0.1,
Do I have to update the firmware first? I tried with Samsung smart share but it freezes everytime I try to use the program.
Any help be great
Is your current software version an official Samsung one? For android 6.0.1 you need a custom kernel for your S6. Find one that supports the 6.0.1 bootloader and then a custom recovery like TWRP.

Hey mazwi thanks for the reply. Yes it's the official stock one running 5.1.1.
Phone is rooted and twrp installed I just wanted to be sure I could install the rom straight away without anything else.
Any advice on this kernel be glad great help?
To flash successful a 6.0.1 rom
First you need to flash modem and bootloader that are compatible with MM using odin.

Second make a factory reset
Third flash the rom
Fourth Enjoy your new rom
As for the kernel it will work 100% with the stock but arter's kernel in my opinion is the best.
*flash the kernel after the rom
*links are from XtreStoLite DeoMod Edition 3.3.1 MM thread
I'm a rooted 5.1.1 J700M user with TWRP and basically I can't run any ROM i see in this forum, everything needs Marshmallow, those godly A5 ROMs which improve speed need MM too.
I tried going back to Stock Recovery and Firmware with Odin but failed, tried another thing by converting the zImage or recovery to a flashable with Odin too and failed again.
I'm a Lollipop 5.1.1 user how can go to 6.0.1, the update isnt even showing on the System Update, so i guess i must use a PC.
Please help on upgrading my rooted 5.1.1 TWRP J700M to Marshmallow
Go to www.updato.com and get an MM rom for your fon and region.
Flash with Odin.

I think you can flash this https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/development/rom-resurrection-remix-mm-5-7-0-t3414185 and then flash ROMS that require Android 6.0 , As it is saying that to install Resurection remix, it may be with Android LP, or MM,
I was recently running a Nougat rom for the M8 and after some severe performance issues at time I wanted to try to revert back to a stock rom. I tried flashing both the stock marshmallow and the de-bloated roms but even after re-installing the Marshmallow firmware I get stuck on the boot screen. Can anyone help?

did you install just the mm firmware, or the full ruu? also, does flashing the N rom you tried to downgrade from boot up if you flash it?
I used the firmware, and yes flashing the N rom got me back in.
if you are flashing a mm rom, try also flashing a custom kernel for it afterwards. aosp kernel for aosp rom, sense for sense etc
