Galaxy S6 Edge Root - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just looking to root and install a mega clean version of android on my japanese galaxy s6 edge. I have build SCV31KDU1CQG1. This phone, and this version is UNLOCKED from AU KDDI.
AFAIK only SCV31KDU1AOCP can be rooted, but I can not find a source for it.
Asking for assistance. Thank you.

You can Always flash TWRP via Odin And root Using it.
Or you can Give kingroot a Shot.

So it doesn't matter the build version?

[Q] Root SCH-I605MSAVZW Samsung Galaxy Note II (Verizon), 16GB Developer Edition

Bought the Samsung Galaxy Note® II (Verizon), 16GB Developer Edition.
Wanted to keep my unlimited data plan.
It is already unlocked, what is the best way to root it.
Model number: SCHI605
Android version: 4.1.2
Baseband version: 1605VRAMA4
Hardware version: I605.06
Thank you.
I don't know of a standalone root app. In the past there was the exynos cpu exploit app but that was for an older Verizon rom. Of course you could flash a rooted stock ROM like beanstown106's either odex and deodex rooted stock ROMs. Or you could flash a custom rom with root.
The good thing about beanstown106's roms are that they don't affect the bootloader. They won't lock it some other stock rooted roms will.

You can use the toolkit.

I was considering using the Toolkit, but it supports up to build AMC3. My build number is: JZO54K.I605YAMA5.

You could try it and see, other than that the only thing is the exynos exploit.

Would I be able to return it to its original state, if there is a problem?

If you have the original firmware I would say yes, there is even a possibility that you could use the alternative or root66 firmware, Roms, to get back to stock.
The S3 Dev edition had no problem getting back to stock using our Roms or even using any of our Roms and radios even though it's stock firmware was different. Im oretty sure the only thing that'd happen though is it would say process failed, it shouldn't mess your phone up.

This purchase may have been a mistake. what good is an unlocked bootloader, if there is no way to root without flashing?
I am contemplating returning it and taking the restocking fee hit.

You will not be able to flash a recovery. Only people with the old MDK boot loader can.

My recommendation to you mate is that you root using the desktop version of king root, replace it with SuperSU, install flash fire beta, then install Strang5Litre ROM. Probably one of the best most stable Roms (and the only one out there at the moment) Everything you need is in the general section

Any way to update LMY48Z AT&T Nexus 9 to Marshmallow?

Hi all, I know there's no official AT&T update to Marshmallow yet for LMY48Z but is there any way around this, perhaps by fooling the system?
It's for my girlfriend's device, which is NOT unlocked or rooted. I'm considering Android N, but slightly prefer a more stable route.
Thanks!

Fastboot flash the factory image from google. You will have to unlock the bootloader. There's tutorials in the general section to help you. Then you'll be on stock 6.0.1, and can flash each monthly update as it is released.
Thanks, but that will wipe the data from her tablet, correct?

No, it will not if you flash the bootloader, system, vendor, and boot images individually in fastboot. But you really will need to do a factory reset. When upgrading major system steps like this, 5.X.X to 6.X.X you will face a lot of force closes and other issues unless you wipe...
Unlocking the bootloader doesn't wipe data any more?

Unfortunately, unlocking the bootloader will wipe your device.

Help Rooting Galaxy J7 Prime SM-G610F

I need root for Galaxy J7 Prime SM-G610F on Marshmallow 6.0.1

All of Samsung devices come with unlocked bootloader, Aren't they?
If it has an unlocked bootloader see if you can find a twrp or cwm tar file
Assuming you find it flash the custom recovery in Odin
Then boot to recovery and flash a super su zip file

guides request for my unlocked tmo s9 plus

I've been out of the game as far as rooting and flashing kernels/roms since the Nexus 6. I was wondering if there were some instructions for the snapdragon version to get this thing rooted and on my way to aosp . I'm using this phone until the pixel 4 releases
Enjoy your phone as is. There is no root for it
