This is the TWRP that are present right now who works for the 6.0.1 at the moment... you can try if you like.. but i use it on my 6edge and don't encounter any problem so far..

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 ?

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

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.
Sent from my SM-G925F

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

Bricked Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge International version (SM-G825F)

I need help to unbrick my phone. Here are the details of my phone and things I did before it became useless.
- Version: Updated version of Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Marshmallow Android 6.0.
- replaced its recovery with TWRP via odin (3.10.6)
- install a ROM with the use of TWRP recovery.
- After rooting my phone and flashing a new rom via TWRP, I can't use my phone's physical buttons.
I also tried full-wipe installation of Custom rom and I got the same issue. I tried restoring it to a stock rom, but it always says "Fail".
Do you guys have any suggestions how can I fix my phone?
Which rom did you flash?
What point in odin does it fail?
I take it you have G925F? Not G8.
Whats your region and what firmware did you try to flash (stock)

Thank you for your reply. Here are my answers:
-I flashed "CarHDRom" to my phone using TWRP 3.0.
- Yes, 825F is just a typo, G925F is the correct model name. I double checked it in the box.
- Philippines, and I already downloaded the firmware that you suggested in another post about softbricked g925F (G925FXXU3DPAD_G925FOXA3DPAD_XEU).

I would first try with odin v 3.10.7 not 3.10.6.
Make sure you have origional cable and debug mode is on in dev options.
If this fails look for the firmware in the picture. Download and flash that.
Any problems let me know

I suggest TWRP. Make a full Nandroid back up before just incase. But if anything goes wrong you can just flash that stock back to fix.
I would root first with cf autoroot.
Then flash your ROM.
Do a full wife when rom installer asks as this is safest way.
If it bootloops just wait.
Glad i can help
Well it looks like CarHDRom is not compatible with my phone. Tried flashing it twice and I waited for 30mins of booting but it doesn't continue.

It is compatible im using it mate. Did you do a clean install? Wipe data when installer asks? My first boot took around 30 mims
30mins? Seriously?? Yeps.. I did a full wipe before booting with the CarHDRom.. is it the most stable TW based ROM now? ? thanks !

You will need to flash a custom recovery after. I recommend twrp. Then you can start flashing custom roms.

I'm 99% sure you won't get bootloop flashing the auto root. But download stock ROM just in case if this happens just flash the stock ROM. But like I said it's slim chance that this will happen.
The first time you flash cf auto root it may bootloop like 2 times but it is completely normal

No, you can reset the flash counter but knox will always be 0x1 (tripped) to be honest not many people or too bothered about knox. I've had my phone in for repair a few times with tripped knox. Samsung never even checked

You need to flash stock recovery ..flash rollback pkg and the have to flash desired firmware which ever number you want to flash....
For custom ROM you have to be on 350 or under firmware number..
You have Indian variant??

if you have twrp installed then OTA update will give bootloop.

make a all partitions twrp backup of your stock rom first..all partitions
the then extract b350 which you have downloaded with huawei update extractor(its an app you can download from google)
then flash stock recovery which you have extracted from b350 and flash it via adb fastboot..
then downgrade to b350 by following the guide which i send you..
do some research when you feel its ok to do so then do it.
