Using odin will make you lose all your personal data, make sure to back up everything before doing so.
but if you don't want to struggle with saving everything you can wait for the OTA .

Nope, everything is fine.

All can be saved with the firmware by selecting the file HOME_CSC.
Touchscreen works, they say that non-original touchscreens do not work
I like it - there is a section of AOD in the SamsungThemes app

I have one more question for you: is this method super safe for my phone? I'm just coming back from a brick (due to my mistakes) when I was on lollipop and now I'm a bit afraid to root again. Is this method tested and working 100%? Thank you for your patience!

Yes. That's how I did when I tried Marshmallow. Other people did same as well.

KII L22C569B130 looking for help.

Greetings! i'm currently looking for an android 6~7 rom for my huawei gr5 (compilation number on the title). I've found several but non of them matches the whole compilation and i'm afraid of bricking my phone, i've installed roms before but was on a nexus one (old old phone) so i'm basically new again. I would pretty much appreciate advice, links, and whatever might help me on this process. Thanks in advance.
There are lots of ROMs in ROMs and kernel section.
So any rom there with the kII l22 tag will work to me? Even if the c569b130 doesn't match? That's my biggest question.

All of them will work if you have a firmware with no VoLTE.

Those roms will work on your device...only caution is it should not be on volte..
Dont forget to Make a full backup and give it a try...

Voice over LTE. You can't simply disable it for custom Roms to work. You need to be on B350 and below because B360 and above has VoLTE.

No.. stock marshmallow firmware should be on your device..
You can update via OTA update.. Or you canupdate manually.
After that unlock bootloader..then flash twrp and then flash any rom you want to.

So, anyone flash this yet? I'm tempted but won't be back home to a PC (in case something goes wrong) until tonight. Just looking for some general impressions.
So, I did this. Pretty impressed with the overall device feel now, SE9 is nice . No hang ups other thank it took a long friggin' time, also remember this will WIPE all the data, so make sure to do a backup prior to. The initial/first phone setup is very iPhone-ish, imo.

Be warned; this update is ONLY for SM-G930A firmware - it has a second-stage updater that blocks all other versions (including SM-G930T, which I myself tried). In other words, it is a carrier-specific update, folks.

If it weren't for this being a daily driver, I'd consider it. However, because it is, that's not an option. So I'll have to wait for either a neutral version or one that will work with the SM-G930T.
I am currently testing it out, I was on the latest U firmware and downloaded the latest ATT firmware, will update on how it goes
