I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace SCH i619. I bought it in China, where I live, from China Telecom. I wanted to root it and install a new ROM on it after I read about it and decided it would be nice. I was finally able to root it after a lot of time and effort, but I cannot get a ROM installed. I cannot flash anything to my phone and I am not sure why. I cannot get CWM to flash in any way (I've used Odin as well) and so cannot get a ROM installed. Is it that my phone just will not be able to do this, or does anyone have any ideas about what to do?
Thanks in advance!
I have an phone meant for the Asian territory (G9208) but I can't find any debloated/customized roms for this particular version of the phone.
Are all S6 the same, except for the software & firmware? If so, I'd like to try flashing a G920F/I rom.
I ask here because I don't want to risk bricking it. So, has anyone successfully done this?
Thanks
Did you find any custom Rom for your g9208?, I'm still with 5.1.1 OJ2 with many tries but no effective way to root it.
Hi everyone,
i have been searching for 2 weeks how to root this phone, but no luck yet. I am saying no luck for a proper way to do it , because you can do it with the avant method, or by using the CF method which uses the SM-G386T firmware, and for reading lots of forums, i know it works, but the problem is if i ever want to update later, i would not be able to do so. I already have the firmware for my phone, G386WVLU1ANJ1, running android 4.4.2 KITKAT, and i have extracted the recovery.img from the firmware file. I am searching how to unlock the bootloader so i can apply whatever rooting method i want. Since i am new to this, i need some information. If i ever want to use the CF-Auto-Root method using the SM-G368T model, can i go back to stock phone whenever needed by flashing recovery image from the SM-G386W ?. If not, is there any other method i can use, preferably one that doesn't trip my KNOX flag to 0x01. Until now i have tried 2 methods, Towelroot and Z4root, which didn't work at all. The main reason i want to root is i want to get rid of the bloatware installed by default on my phone and gain control of my phone without any restrictions, and customizing it.
Please need help.
Thank you very much
P.S: can anyone recommend some reading about rooting android phones?

I also own one of these phones and would like to root the phone to get rid of bloat ware and make the phone run smoother. I would appreciate if you could give a quick run down on how you managed your root. Greatly appreciated.

I recently purchased a galaxy S6 (SM-920i) running Android 5.1.1 in the hope of rooting it and flashing it with a custom rom. I'm a novice at this, and have not been able to find a decent tutorial on this subject. I'm not concerned with tripping the knox counter by the way. Any help in this matter will be much appreciated. Thanks.

I did the following on mine (920F):
Get a kernel with root (Unikernel) and flash it via ODIN (since I did not wanted to flash a rom right away and that also comes with auto root).
Get the TWRP ODIN flashable .tar from http://twrp.me
Profit.
Dear Friends
I came from samsung with many installed roms experiances and it all was easy steps to do and after reading some guides in LG model I feel so stupid, I really cant understand where to start,
I know I need twrp but cant do this with unlocked boot, I have everything stock and never touch that phone(it was my wife's phone)
can any one just tell me how to start? the phone is ready in fireware update mode and I cant find the right guide with the right files for me.
thank you and sorry for the troble.
