So I rooted my samsung galaxy s6 edge sm-g925f running 6.0.1 today. This is my first root ever so obviously I've run into a problem.
Used this kernel - SpaceX-Kernel_MM_RC2.1_G925F.tar.md5
&
This version of TWRP - TWRP-3.0_MM_S6-edge_by_ManhIT.tar.md5.
with Beta SuperSU v2.52
I installed ROMtoolbox lite and tried to install custom boot animation only to discover that samsung uses a proprietary software and the animation files have the .qmg extension.
Anyway long problem short.....I clicked on ROM installer in ROM toolbox lite and was tempted to see the words "Samsung boot animation fix", so i went ahead and clicked on download and then installed it.
Then I remember clicking on reboot in recovery...ROM toolbox asked me which recovery I used...I selected TWRP recovery and eversince then I'm stuck at TWRP where each time i reboot i go straight to TWRP recovery.
Anyone any idea what this might be?
Thanks for reading.
Hi !
Revert all changes you`ve done and don`t use ROM toolbox , that app isn`t working properly on stock based roms
Good luck !

Need some help please. My Note 10.1 N8013 will not boot past the splash screen. Here's what I've done.
1. Rooted device using CF-Auto Root. Everything went fine had SuperSU and root access. Made Nandroid backup.
2. Installed Hyperdrive Rom per instructions in thread. Tab would not boot past the Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 screen.
3. Installed Android Revolution HD Rom, Redemption Rom, and N8013 Stock Rooted Rom all with same result.
4. I also tried TWRP, CWM, and High On Android, and Philz recoveries. Wiping everything before flashing Rom.
Once, I got the Stock Rooted Rom to install normally but got an error message "SU Binary not installed" and could not access root .apks or files.
5. Unrooted flashed Stock Firmware through Odin and rooted again still same result. Except for once I made it to the Samsung screen before boot looping.
Not sure what to do now. Thanks for any Help
So basically I managed to brick my new S6. I rooted it by flashing the unibase with odin. The phone booted correctly and everything was fine. I then decided I needed a custom recovery. I used the application Flashify to flash the recovery. When the phone rebooted, it was stuck on the Samsung logo, with a red message at the stop saying "recovery is not seandroid". What do I do? I'm guessing I need to flash new files using odin but I don't know which - I'm on android 5.1.1 and my model number is SM-G920F. Any help would be appreciated.
In Odin install the .tar (or .tar.md5) files provided with TWRP (https://dl.twrp.me/zeroflte/twrp-2.8.7.2-zeroflte.img.tar.html) or PhilZ Touch Recovery (http://www.arter97.com/browse/exynos7420/recovery/11.0/g920fi/) made by arter97.
It is possible that installing TWRP again using Odin can cause the S6 going into another bootloop. My solution for that is to flash a kernel (like arter97's one or Adam Kernel) and then the phone should boot just fine.
Edit: If you will flash a custom kernel you will not need to root the phone again because these contain SuperSU and maybe Busybox.
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.

Hello Friends.
I have rooted so many android devices before this for installing custom ROM.
Every time I succeed in it but this time I failed and I have done big mistake that is i did not take backup of my current Rom.
I have done following steps before my device gets bricked.
1.I have rooted Galaxy grand 2 SM -g7102 with kingo root app.
2. Flash CWM recovery image by using Odin s/w.
3.This is the only recovery which suits to my device and this recovery does not show external memory card option in it.
4.So transferred Custom ROM zip file by using Fastboot method in phone memory
5.After that I tried to install custom ROM (cynogenmod 13) but I got status 7 error on the screen.
6. So that I made changes in ROM files.(in update script file)
7. Still it was not working on it.
8. So I changed my mind and tried to install Note 4 ROM from XDA which is compatible for my device.
9. Note4 ROM successfully installed in my device but when I rebooted my device it has stuck in boot loader.
(Only Samsung logo and device name - restart-again same).
10. But I was able to switch it in recovery mode and Odin mode.
11. so finally I decided to install stock ROM( firmware downloaded from official website of Samsung)
12. I successfully installed this ROM by using Odin s/w but still I have facing same problem of stuck in boot loader.
Note: Every time I have wipe cache memory, user data, etc..)
Plzz help me.
