you can't downgrade the bootloader...
a try would be after rooting the phone and recovery..you can try to install a custom 5.0.2 Rom but 5.1.1 is much more stable

wanted 6.0.1 update root method

can somebody post me a working root method for gt_925f on the 6.0.1 update
I'm interested. My g925f is stock with 6.0.1 beta. Is possible to root flashing TWRP with odin and then flash superSU through recovery?
I'm not sure . I've read a few things in the different s6 edge threads but it's a bit sketchy

Put the twrp 3.0.0.0.tar through AP in odin.. the zip. is for flashing through recovery.. since you don't have this recovery, odin is your first step..
Ok. Thank you. I successfully flashed twrp.
Is there a working xposed for 6.0.1 ?

on n920i you can use only the modem and bootloader from n920g. with that modem you can then boot n920c custom roms.

Root SM-G925F

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.

If your firmware is before 4DPG2 you could still downgrade.

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.

[Q][AOSP 5.1.1(scritch007 build)][Anyone using in surnia]

I have los14.1 now but want to go to either 5.1.1 or 6.0.1 . I found an aosp 5.1.1 rom for the device though it had many issues. So anyone using it, can you please tell me if it's stable and what's working and not working as of now. And which ROM would be better? Stock 6.0.1 or aosp 5.1.1.
Also performance wise which one better? Stock 5.0.2|5.1.1|6.0.1??

Hi, I ve just downgraded to 5.1.1 coming from Los 14.1
Have been on 6.0 too and went back to experiment a OTA update (from LL to MM)
Have to say that 5.1.1 is fast and smooth, like no other. both 6 and 7.1.2 custom ROMs.
I will stay there since I don't find a new reason to upgrade...

Everything works as expected in 5.1.1 and that is very relaxing: wifi, bluetooth, motodisplay and notification, no forcecloses or crash, no random reboot.
Stock softwares, with last updates from PlayStore, are also very smooth.

Did you flashed all the system files?
Lockin the bootloader isn't necessary or rilevant in my opinion.
Last question.. which os where you at when firstly rooted the phone? Sometimes Android is hard to downgrade..
