So Guys I updated to latest OTA for my G925i and then I couldnt install TWRP or root my phone due to samsung's updated security policy.
So I figured out the solution: I am not responsible if you brick your device.
1) Download this file: (everything is provided in this single folder, you dont need to download anything else)
https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0Bx_Jdi5sUtwCTUFBcmk2NGFNaHM&export=download
2)Unzip it.
3)Copy UPDATE-SuperSU & Arter97 kernel to your phone.
4)Boot your phone into download mode.
5)Open odin and select "BL" & select the file named sboot (from my folder)
6)Goto option in odin and then deselect AutoReboot.
7)Then Select Start.
8) Once you see "Pass" in Odin, Select twrp file in "AP" and then start. (Make sure that auto reboot is deselected)
9)Once it is completed, manually boot your device into recovery mode. (Press and hold vol. down + Home + Power button untill your screen turns off, once the screen is turned off, quickly swap the volume down button with volume up with home and power button pressed.)
10)It will boot you into TWRP and then just flash the SuperSU & arter97 that you copied to your phone.
11)Clear cache, Reboot and Enjoy!!!
NOTE:- This is only for G925i. Using it with other models may brick your phone.
You can use other kernels if you dont want to use arter but if you get the boot loop then please flash the arter kernel.
Thanks a lot.
May I know what are the versions of SuperSU, TWRP, Bootloader and Modem for your files?
I'm assuming :
SuperSU = v2.66 Beta
TWRP = v2.8.7.2
Bootloader and Modem = DOL5
Am I right?

i have done rooting my s6 with dol5 using 2.66 and twrp u specified very earlier but the issue was that the root was not stable... so refleashed the stock firmware and quit rooting....
actually i dod not flashed any kernel i just flashed the twrp and and then the supersu zip and i was rooted so if the root was unstable what can be the reason??? can it be that i did not flashed the specified kernel???

Hi! Again, thank you for your post. Very useful for me. I would like to contribute sharing with you the change that I had to do in your tutorial: After flash sboot I couldn't flash twrp (odin couldn't finish the process), so I inserted a new step (between step 7 and 8) that was restart the bootloader after flash sboot and finally odin worked fine flashing twrp.
By the way, do you have tips about how root other devices in DOL5, like G920I? It will be a mistake only change the kernel file to G920I?
i was wondering when the ping ping root will be available for g9201...any ideas?

The sboot disables the recovery check, so it is required. But it may not be fully compatible with latest kernel/ROMs.
Private mode is still working ?????
But I have stock ROM I never rooted my S6 edge before
is there any solution for SM-G920I 5.1.1 DOL5? Thanks

I'm a bit confused about this version. I have downloaded the official N910FXXU1POF2_N910FNEE1POF2_N910FXXU1POF1_HOME.tar.md5. Can I flash this on my SM-N910F with odin? Or has this version a different PIT? Help would be appreciated.
Update : Used Dr. Ketan's L3 version. Works perfectly. Thanks!!!
It seems, that this ROM is using a different Root method, because after installing SuperSU no permissions can be granted to apps anymore. Have to reflash ROM.

For root problem as @sawdoctor say

Root access needs to set grant then it is known issue of supersu 2.46
It also have selinux issue. Check supersu if it is 2.46 then get beta supersu 2.49.zip from chain fire site and flash all should be good.

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

Hi
I do not know about korean device.
But on i9100 international you have to root your device, then For installing cm13 for instance you have to repartition first and install twrp 3.x.x and cm13 and gapps which you do by flashing zip-files in recovery (Not with odin).
You should search for the developer @CNBLACK who made 5.1.1 and 6.0.1 roms for i9100 and for korean devices aswell (named 250 or similar)‘

On i9100 int. you can flash philz cwm6 stockkernel.zip which has root by using stock-recovery because it is a zip-file (no need for odin)
And If you flash isorec twrp it will not show up If are not on an isorec-kernel.
So after installing philz use again recovery to install latest latest cm11 20161119 by @zjq985062714 i9100.zip (has isorec kernel) and isorec twrp 3.0.2-1.zip by @the.gangster.
Again this works without odin just using recoveries.
Then you can do repartitioning and flashing cm13 of others.
This is How i do it always On my i9100 international.

Hi
Maybe you overlooked it in my Post.
I wrote you can install philz Kernel by using STOCK - RECOVERY. On switched off device press 3 buttons at the same time until stock recovery appears ( Volume up-, power- and home-button).
Then move to "apply update" and choose philz.zip from SD card (of course you have to copy it on
card first).
Reboot System.
Switch off device
Reboot in recovery using 3 buttons and you will have custom recovery to continue.

Hi
Maybe you overlooked it in my Post.
I wrote you can install philz Kernel by using STOCK - RECOVERY. On switched off device press 3 buttons at the same time until stock recovery appears ( Volume up-, power- and home-button).
Then move to "apply update" and choose philz.zip from SD card (of course you have to copy it on
card first).
Reboot System.
Switch off device
Reboot in recovery using 3 buttons and you will have custom recovery to continue.

Hi
This is strange. Philz kernel is well known as a safe kernel which has been used by many people.
Did you look for the correct version for your device ?
I am not sure but it should be PhilZ-cwm6-XWLSD-OXX-4.87-signed.zip (or similar)
Anyway you could try to make a Backup in recovery.
Then i would flash cm11 and twrp which i mentioned before.
In case you flashed wrong kernel flash correct PhilZ kernel or cwm 6.0.4.7
Then flash cm11 and twrp.
Just want to say once more all this works fine On i9100 int. and i do not know if your device is different in any way.
Did you read the threads by @CNBLACK which i recommended?

Okay, I checked this thread.
You must upgrade to Stock JB Firmware.
And If you already to use Stock JB, Check my SGS2 thread (u1skt).

Eureka!!!! i have found the problem and solution!!!
as i've previously said, my phone was rooted using kingoroot. once i have installed philz, it start bugging. So i though myself maybe there was a conflict between superuser by kingoroot and superuser by philz. i tried to unistall kingoroot but i was unable tu unistall superuser (don't really know why). nevetheless i have disabled the kingoroot superuser in application manager and the problem just disappeared. now my phone is working perfectly. i have repartitionned it in 6Gb internal and 7Gb USB. i'm ready for the next step.
thanks a lot Sensei

sorry but i'm confused. as i have mentionned in my post, my phone was originaly a SHW-M250S but i have convert it in gt-i9100 by using a pit file and flashing a new firmware. so i should continue by flashing cyanogenmod for SHW-M250S or for gt-i9100?

Glad your device is working again.
Please keep in mind that (on i9100) you have to increase the SYSTEM partition to 1 GB or more If you want to flash any cm13 or cm14 rom.
As far as i can see you increased only data (internal) partition.

Hi again
My opinion is: once the device is converted to i9100 it should behave like one.
Maybe anybody can confirm this.
If it were my device i would make a
- backup in recovery (important!)
Then i would have a go and make
- clean flash of latest cm11 + gapps + twrp 3 ( i think i mentioned the Files before).
If it works - fine! (and can think about flashing other roms).
If it does'nt work: restore the backup from recovery .
But it is your device and your decision.

Hi
cm11 should not make any trouble at all.
I do not know why this message turned up.
Please tell me what exact Recovery you used for flashing (e.g. philz cwm 6.0.4.7) and which cm 11 you flashed.
Maybe the Recovery should be updated to latest.
Still I wish somebody would confirm that your korean converted device can be treated as an i9100.

Hi again
Just did some searching and a reason for this error is as I supposed:
You have to update the Recovery.
Flash in present philz Recovery the "cwm 6.0.4.7".
Then use this Recovery to flash latest cm11 + gapps + twrp 3

hello!
thanks TriboDoP but i'm sorry i thing something went wrong for me. i have install philz_touch_6.48.4-i9100.zip as you said but after that my phone just brick. fortunately i have reinstalled it USING ODIN!!! (i had no choice and i desperately tried with odin and it worked). Now i have 2 questions: 1) why did i got a brick after installing philz_touch_6.48.4-i9100.zip??? 2) now that i see that i can flash using odin is there any safety alternative with ODIN to install android 4.4.2 or 5.1? any other suggestions will be appreciate.
really, thanks for your help. i really appreciate
So, some of you might have noticed that I made some thread in General section, for Oreo TWRP Backup.
Some people do not like this idea, therefore I created a TWRP flash-able .zip for that.
I recommend a full wipe, or even a format data before flashing this.
Download the 3 zips, flash in order, boot, enjoy.
The files are stamped with a number, so you know what to flash in which order. Easy right ?
There is no root. I've heard SuperSU works flawlessly, but did not try as I am fine without it.

This requires TWRP; if you have TWRP then your knox is already tripped.
@Paradoxxx
Please add step-wise guide to avoid confusion for people (whether to flash using Odin or TWRP).
Thank you. It has been very beautiful. everything works.

I have flash the 3 files and all perfectly work on my G950F, before i was on AQH3 XEF (France). Samsung health work, secured folder too. I juste have a "problème", it's that we can't install update by OTA. If your phone with this files crash, it's maybe because you don't have wipe with twrp before.
