I'll think about, thanks for the reply
But I'm still not sure if you need to unlock anyway. You can try to flash the latest firmware from Sammobile.com but if something goes wrong you'll have to do a wipe - since you don't have a custom recovery to do a backup

Definite improvement over BB77
Just flashed BB86. Too early to comment on battery life. However, I downloaded a 35MB game from the Play Store and was amazed at both how quickly it downloaded and how cool the phone seemed to stay compared to BB77.
Subjective evaluations, I know, but I'm impressed by BB86 so far.
Update: battery life overnight also improved from about 1% / hour to 0.75% / hour.

I tried different stock roms with no-wipe, but I flashed this I545VRUEMJ7_I545VZWEMJ7_I545VRUEMJ7_HOME.tar and worked perfectly.
Of course I tried on different pc, but same FAIL. Only this one helped...but sorry, I don't remember where I downloaded...
I've a little Question.
I want to root my Phone. I've installed latest official Marshmallow update (G925FXXU3DPDP) and don't know what's the way to root. The cf-autoroot from File Chainfire is different from my current Buildnumber.
I saw a Video from "Highonandroid" in that he first flashed the SpaceX Kernel and then the Twrp, does this work?
One more Question: When i flashed Twrp and want to install a 5.1.1 over the Official Marshmallow, do i get a bootloop then?
Sorry for the Questions, but i am new at this and don't want to do anything wrong
Flash twrp as in original android development section. Then flash supersu.zip.
And no 5.1.1 rom on MM booloader.

Doesn't matter if the build numbers aren't exactly the same. As long as your device is g925f zeroltexx the root will work fine.
I have 6.0.1 g925f and i used cf autoroot a few days ago and no issues or errors

Yeah you can use flashify to flash your roms and zips. Make sure you make backups first though of your kernel and recovery. Just incase.
Enjoy buddy
