Galaxy s6 Edge JAPAN - 404sc / SW-G925Z - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Do any of these Root or Roms work with the 6.0.1 model 404sc / SW-G925Z from Japan ?
Im sorry, but they all fail to mention this model number.
I find it hard to believe that 20 versions of the phone have been unlocked, but japan has not.
is it possible to root - rom - back up the 6.0.1 404sc / SW-G925Z currently ?
could someone explain how?
ive rooted every android and iphone ive ever owned.
but this is my first contract phone, and its the first one which fails to be listed.

Try pingpong root app. It might work.

can any know if its possible to get 3g 900mhz band on s6 edge g925A variant, any method?

Which model to buy for easy rooting?

Hi Everyone,
I have finally decided to get the S6 edge as the prices have fallen within my budget. I want to get an unlocked 64 GB GSM model and root it using pingpong root. Can anyone tell me which variant I should get so that I can root and continue to sideload updates while not losing any features.
Thanks!
I suggest you get the international model SM-G925F.
It is unlocked and has the widest support of the community (I saw kernels only support international models G925F/I for the first few versions, before supporting other variants).
Any idea if I can root it and then update it to the latest firmware (while keeping the root)? Don't need OTA, just any way to do it is fine. I love this phone but it has so many hoops to jump through. I need root for adblocking and also need latest firmware for samsung pay.

935U instead 935V

Hello,
I received an S7 edge from USA Verizon version 935V and unfortunately 4G does not supported in Morocoo wit MAT, I found after that the current version in Morocco is 935F that support 4G
After an update to android 7.0 by Odin I lost IMEI config, and my phone is full with Verizon apps :crying:
I would like to know if it is possible to put an official ROM of 935U instead my 935V
Thank you in advance for your support and sorry for my question I'm a starter and did not found an answer to have 4G on my mobile and IMEI work well

Galaxy S6 Edge T-Mobile (unlocked by Provider) Nougat update?

Hello guys!
I recently bought an S6 Edge from one of my friends. It was originally a T-Mobile device, but they asked them to unlock it, and it has been unlocked.
My device runs Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow and when I search for System Updates it says "Your software is up to date" meanwhile Android 7.0 Nougat was released in April.
My question is: now my phone runs on T-Mobile's ROM, and which ROM should I install to get Nougat? ROM for XEH (it is for ORIGINALLY UNLOCKED devices) or T-Mobile's ROM? Or it doesn't matter at all?
I'm scared if I install T-Mobile's ROM my phone won't be unlocked anymore.
Thanks for the help!

S9+ G9650 on T-mobile US for WiFi calling/VoLTE + Root?

Trying to decide whether to get G965FD or G9650 to use with T-mobile US. G9650 will have unlockable bootloader for rooting the device, correct? I realize the device is too new and there is no root for Chinese/HK variant yet but it will be there soon if it has unlocked bootloader.
Will flashing T-mobile US CSC give the VoLTE+WiFi calling features while preserving the unlocked bootloader and root?
The only reason I ask is because Exynos S7/S8+ modem download speeds suck on T-mobile US(10Mbps vs 60Mbps on Qualcomm in same location at same time when I tested). And then G9650 may support band71 as G965FD does not for 600MHz LTE on Tmobile.
Bump...
damn, does S9+ SM-G9650 have or not unlocked bootloader ?
would awesome to have 256gb vs low 128gb on S9+ SM-G965F
It has an unlocked bootloader from what others have posted so far. In fact there is first version of TWRP being tested on it looks like. Not sure if we can flash US CSC on it though. Also the modem on it probably is missing band 71 like international Exynos. There won't be many ROMs out for it but at least you can get root, dual SIM and Snapdragon advantage(as mentioned in reviews) I guess....
I think I'm only going to root if there is a way to go back to stock if I want.
I had an LG V20 on Sprint and I rooted it. Which is fine. All worked well and I was able to uninstall LG related crap I did not want. But with that I could not receive Android updates. I wasn't running a custom ROM, I just wanted root to remove LG installed crap.

FW SM-G965U1 (USA Unlocked) on S9+ SM-G9650 (China Unlocked), is it possible?

Hello, i'm in Italy and i bought S9+ 128GB SM-G9650/DS (China Unlocked Factory) to have Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU.
Can i flash FW SM-G965U1 (USA Unlocked Factory with Snapdragon also) with Odin?
Thank you
nothing?
Nope, because you will brick the device
No because the model number does not match, odin will not allow it to flash.
Prince comesy odin may allow it to flash but your un uncharted waters there so no idea what will happen
By any chance do we have any Odin method to root the Canadian Snapdragon versions, bypass the SM-G965W bootloader?
Nope. And dude a simple search would have told you that.
thank you all for the answers
you can make a rom out of the usa carrier firmware and flash it via twrp to your G9650 no problem. Don't let these noobs tell you otherwise.
@travis82
ahahahahaha I would need a guide to do it, so I was asking for the simplest thing, namely ODIN
I don't even know if it's better the G9650 version or the G965U1 version ...... in both cases, I have to use it in Italy with Italian SIM
He asked if he can flash firmware with odin, creating a rom and flashing via twrp is quite another matter lol
Can I flash the U1 Firmware with Mexico's Telcel CSC??
Hi guys, I made a quick comparison between 3 models (mine is the SM-G965W - Rogers) as recommended by some xda members. Some were saying it may be breaking the phone entirely, and some were saying it is working. Based on those specs all three models are pretty much the same including the Supported Cellular Bands. What is your opinion based on your expertise on this take?
