[ROM][9.0][Stock][OneUI]PA6 ROM for A6 [SM-A600X] - Samsung Galaxy A6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth

PA6 ROM for A6​
Just so you guys know, this is only stock ROM with barely any edits. I just made it flashable... and added screen recorder
Oh and, please read the following:
I want to make something clear. If you have not read this and this allow me to summarize
Pie brings new locks to the table, something far worse than rmm lock. If you flash Pie officially, either via OTA or via Odin, these new locks will prevent you from rooting, as I understand it.
The workaround is to flash Pie but with Oreo BL.
BUT
We don't know how long that will keep working
Samsung can easily make Pie only boot with Pie BL.
So... for now... DO NOT UPLOAD YOUR BOOTLOADER TO PIE YET OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO ROOT OR FLASH CUSTOM BINARY ANYMORE!
And this is where this zip comes in handy!
This ZIP will not change your BL (it will keep your Oreo BL). You still have TWRP to backup and restore, how awesome is that?
So, you have been warned!
Code:
Your warranty is now void.
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this zip file
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!
Features!​
Stock in flashable form
Deodexed (only apps, framework remains odexed)
Heavily debloated
Very Optimized
Modded Screen record
And stock A6 stuff
Bugs!​
Probably none since its just stock, but please report any

Flash full Pie including Pie BL and CP also make sure you aren't KG state prenormal locked. Proceed to flash the ROM after on.

Welp tough luck then, installing the rom involves data wipe which is a must if you don't wanna run into issues.

This was because there was KG state on Pie Bootloader. If you read the OP, check the links there which explains the situation with RMM and KG locks and stuff. So if you want Pie BL, you should do the following:
->You need Oreo BL
->Flash TWRP
->Flash ROM
->Flash RMM bypass 3 by corsicanu
->Flash Pie BL
->Boot to ROM

[ROM] [TW] SM-G900T_PG2 Rooted Deodexed

G900TUVS1GPG2
Rooted Deodexed BusyBox Init.d
Hi all, just wanted to share a little project i've been working on. Its the latest release for the T-mobile S5 G900T, rooted busybox deodexed and init.d support. I'm am totally new to the process of kitchens and making roms. This is my first release on this project and will release debloated and other combinations as i have time. Please enjoy and report any issues. I will try my best to help in any way.
Now for the rom and instructions.
Typical disclaimer as always, I am not responsible for any damaged caused by flashing custom software period. If you have gotten this far then you completely understand the risks involved with "flashing" custom software (ROMs). Flashing this ROM will void your warranty and trip knox.
Again this is for the T-mobile S5 G900T. Stock for the most part. Its rooted busybox deodexed and init.d support. I have replaced the stock kernel with The Imperius Curse Kernel 6-20 by @ShinySide. Edited homescreen pages. There is only one Homescreen page by default. If you need screens and widgets just add them. Removed NFC icon and removed sfinder and quick connect from pulldown menu. International Boot animation and sound. All apps in system/app & system/priv-app updated as of 7/23/2016.
You need custom recovery installed to proceed. I use TWRP, have not tested on CWM.
You need to be on a 6.0.1 bootloader! I tested on the PE1 bootloader and had no issues but i recommend a full update to PG2.
EDIT Odin flashable PG2 bootloader and Modem tar download link below
If you do not have a custom recovery installed then please go herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s5/general/root-how-to-root-sm-g900t-firmware-t3358190 then continue below.
Download ROM and move to root storage of phone. ExtSDcard or internal sd
Reboot to TWRP and tap wipe then advanced wipe and check boxes 'Dalvik/ ART cache' 'System' 'Data' and 'Cache' then swipe to wipe. Do this 3 times just to be safe. If you moved the rom to phone storage DO NOT WIPE Internal storage as you will delete the rom you just downloaded.
Go back to the main menu in TWRP and tap install, choose rom and swipe to install.
After install is complete reboot and wait around 15 minutes for boot to complete.

I have strange problem with this ROM, hope anyone can help. After installation, I can't use adb any more. "adb devices" shows the devices is unauthorized, and under "Developer options", there is no button for "Revoke USB debugging authorizations". There is also no USB key fingerprint confirmation window.
Is it just me or the ROM?

It's actually a Kernel issue and not sure ito has been updated. Flashing another kernel will fix your issue. I will update the op and possibly link another kernel.

Be updated soon though. Have the source to G2, and for some reason Samsung supplied their own toolchain in the source (which I've never seen) so been screwing around with it.

I've been looking into how to make a bootloader/modem flashable thru Odin but can't find any reliable up to date guides. If anyone knows where I might look to start I'm very sure I could make it, just need guidelines on how to begin.

Kenzo bootloop problems, any new rom

Hi Guys and greetings from the UK,
Recently i flashed the latest RR, Nitrogen and Pure roms and none of the boot. I'm just wondering if this is down to the unofficial bootloader unlock method. Could somebody either confirm or refute this please?
What options to i have to use the latest roms if it is to do with the BL?
Many thanks

Simply flash Citrus and enjoy your phone. It will work on unofficially unlocked bootloader and is bug free:

Goodix support was added in the most recent update.
It's CAF based, so Citrus will give you better and more stable signal than AOSP or LineageOS based ROMs
Hi i have flashed the rom and it wont boot im afraid. I just have the lemon/lime logo. Same as all the other roms.
Any idea?
Do i need a specific recovery?
I followed the instructions.
If i flash custom kernel do i do this before or after the ROM?

At first make a backup of your working ROM in TWRP (I think we can skip that step in your case)
Wipe Data/System/Internal Storage/Dalvik and Cache
Install ROM, install GApps (Android 7.1 - 64 Bit)
Reboot to System
First reboot can take 5 - 10 minutes, so don't give up if the lemon appears on your screen. Just wait a few minutes.
Everything will be working out of the box. If for some reason you want to try different kernels, just reboot to recovery, flash the kernel of you liking and reboot.

Hmmm,
Thanks for helping me, i must say. Nothing seems to be working for me. I've done as you described exactly and it just isn't booting.
I've been flashing roms forever on multiple handsets so i am very used to doing this. it just seems that no matter what i try, no matter what rom they refuse to boot.
I have to go back to an older rom or restore from twrp
I'm going to start again and follow your instructions step by step again.
Then im going to allow it 30 minutes to boot.
I will let you know.

One last idea would be to update your firmware before flashing the ROM. You will find it here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/cm14-14-1-aosp-n-firmware-kenzo-kate-t3507789
Flash firmware, wipe, flash ROM, flash GApps, reboot
Ok i will try this if the long wait method doesnt work
Ok its just started to boot. the time is 11:50 - i will leave it until 12:20
Ok so its 12:20 and its still on the lemon/lime screen. Ill try your firmware idea now.
Nope. it wont allow me to flash the citrus rom with the older cm 14 firmware.
Hi again.
No its still not booting even with new FW. Ill try the older firmware from your link and tell you how i get on.
Still not working, unable to flash with older fw
I'm going back to my old rom

Your problem is probably lp bootloader. You need to be on mm bootloader to flash latest nougat roms.
Your options.
1. Best option: flash latest global dev rom in fastboot and unlock officially.
2. Try unofficial way if for some reason official unlock didn't work : http://en.miui.com/thread-345728-1-1.html

You've basically answered your own question when you tried it and it didn't work.
Follow what JLius said or if you don't want to download large files you can try the "(experimental)updated method" posted here. Do note that I don't know if it would work if you're already unofficially unlocked as I've tried that with locked bootloader. I can guarantee it works(as in you can flash latest ROMs as long as you have 7.5.4 firmware and above) on Kate although some kenzo users stated that it worked on them.
I wonder why this isn't causing more problems for other people. I fail to believe that i'm the only person using an unofficially unlocked boot loader.

You're welcome.
I am not rude. Try answering the same questions 10 times a day for 60 days. I think I'll stop doing that, let someone else do it or let 'm figure it out for themselves.
"Do yourself a favor and do as I told you."
This is rude. Plain and simple. There is no sentence you can now string together which will make that any less rude either.
I suggest that if you are getting frustrated by helping people, stop doing it. I don't want to feel guilty about asking for help if that's all the same to you.
Belittling people you don't know isn't an admirable trait.
Either way i thanked you for your help, lets leave it at that.

Is there root available for the Verizon Note 3 after the latest software update from Samsung without downgrading or special ROM ?
I know this phone is old and probably a lot of people have already got rid of it for a new device but I still use the Note 3 and was just wondering thanks
........................................................................................................................
Root, bootloader unlock & custom recovery were available long time.
I have the same sm-n900v & am running Lineage 14.1(Nougat), I even flashed Lineage 15.1 (Oreo) but removed it due to gapps crashing.
Use the XDA android app to go to my device, u will find many threads for our fon

[DISCONTINUED][Root][SM-N950U/U1][Snapdragon][V6_Bootloader][EDL_Method]

New Root Method For Note 8 SM-N950U/U1 V7 Bootloaders​
Rooted Nougat Rom​This is last nougat rom made for note 8 it is prerooted with flashfire and safestrap preinstalled. It has CSC stuff for all carriers added. Its debloated slightly with knox removed. Some stuff may not work but im not sure as I cannot test but this stuff may include fingerprint and or face recognition. If stuff doesnt work it probably related to using pie modems and non-hlos on a nougat rom which you have no choice.​
Downloads
Rooted_N950USQS3BRB4.rar
BL_N950_NOUGAT_V7.tar.7z
Includes Fingerprint and Face Unlock fix for above nougat rom. Just flash in BL slot in odin after everything else
Safestrap-4.10-B03-GREATQLTE-PIE.zip Will boot straight to safestrap only for pie roms
Safestrap-4.10-B03-GREATQLTE-NOUGAT.zip Will Give you the safestrap splash screen on boot
Directions
Safestrap Method
1. Extract system.img from the Rooted_N950USQS3BRB4.rar and copy to phone reboot to safestarp and flash system image reboot to download and flash BL_N950_NOUGAT_V7.tar.md5 in odin
Good luck testers.

@jrkruse Was there a particular reason RJ1 was chosen as the base combo instead of RG2?
The only difference I heard of was that RG2 actually was the DRK repair, where RJ1 did most of the other stuff.

it doesnt matter what v5 combo I am only using bootloaders on rooted rom and you just flash full combo system to be able to reboot to edl mode. The goal was to get root so safestrap can be used on Pie and thats been achieved.
This is excellent! Thanks guys!

When flashing "COMBINATION_FA71_N950USQU5ARJ1_CL13942288_QB203914 89_REV00_user_mid_noship_MULTI_CERT.tar.md5 "
should I press BL+AP+others or just BL?
similar question, when flashing COMBINATION_FA71_N950USQU5ARJ1_BOOTLOADERS.tar should i select BL only or AP?
My baseband version is N950U1UEU1AQ15 build number NMF26X.N950USQU1AQ15 but I see different versions from romreactor below, am I still ok to flash?
One main question, which V5 firmware version is best for this root method, as I am still on firmware N950USQU2BQLA.
The V5 firmwares range from android 8.0 Oreo to 9.0 Pie and thus my question is out of all the V5 bootloader versions below which one is best for this root method for me to update to from my current version.
N950USQU5CRG7,
N950USQU5CRIA,
N950USQU5DSC1,
N950USQU5DSD3,
Also, couple newbie questions, 1. pre rooted firmware means Android Pie or Oreo with root access enabled right?
2. Does this root method allow you to flash custom roms of pie?
Ok, so I have been out of the rooting game for a couple of years now due to needing an engineering kernel and then losing 20% battery capacity. With this I am interested as I am running 5DSF6 currently. With this, are we only able to do the initial rooted ROM and have root access and customize from there or can we load different ROMS? Also, are kernels still out of the question with this method as well?
Also, congrats on getting this to work.

One main question, which V5 firmware version is best for this root method, as I am still on firmware N950USQU2BQLA.
The V5 firmwares range from android 8.0 Oreo to 9.0 Pie and thus my question is out of all the V5 bootloader versions below which one is best for this root method for me to update to from my current version.
N950USQU5CRG7,
N950USQU5CRIA,
N950USQU5DSC1,
N950USQU5DSD3,
Also, couple newbie questions, 1. pre rooted firmware means Android Pie or Oreo with root access enabled right?
2. Does this root method allow you to flash custom roms of pie?

There is only root available for nougat. The whole reason for all of this was to get people a pie rom that has the ability to boot to safestrap. Now this isn’t root but in safestrap you can flash zips just like you can with twrp or flashfire you can backup data or delete apps or modify system files and most everything you do you will still pass safetynet . Of course you can run a prerooted nougat rom or make your own but you would have to run the combo bootloader and boot img so your stuck with those limitations. Nothing has changed since this phone was first rooted with samfail method.

People on v3 v2.5 or v2 or v1 bootloaders there is really no reason to stay on those older bootloaders since this method works for v5 if you choose to use this method you will be updated to v5 bootloaders

Ah ok... so to be clear and for those who may be seeking the same question:
Is the battery still stuck at 80%? (Unless one charges to 100% in DL mode.)

Also to add, for those who are on 7.1.1 Nougat like me and several others who want to preserve the BL, just know that once you roll up you can not roll back. I think it's important to emphasize this..

Because newer isn't always necessarily better. I'm of the minority and there are others like me who prefer to stay on the earlier firmwares.
The hopes of getting a full root early on was another reason, where had we blindly rolled up to the latest, it could have locked us out from taking advantage of a possible working root on an earlier BL. One rule of thumb is to never just jump on updates. We call them lock outs...and we kind of saw this with the original samfail root where those who updated could not roll back; but of course now it's possible which is great. Thanks again for making this happen and saving those who jumped early that never thought they would see a form of root.
There of course other reasons I like to stay put on earlier firmware versions, but that's for another conversation. @butchieboy, @KennyG123 and I go way back and they know.... We enjoy our Note 3's on 4.3, Note 4's on KK 4.4, Note 5 on MM etc...

[RECOVERY] TWRP 3.3.1-0 For P580 OREO Compatible! [UNOFFICIAL]

The long wait has come to an end.
This TWRP was built for P580, I cannot ensure that it works on other variants, but it should work on P585, please test it and tell me.
Your warranty is now void and all that..
This TWRP is only compatible with oreo, due to some mess Sammy did with the bootloader, it works flawlessly on oreo roms, stock and custom!
Proofie
Enough talking, here is the DL link: https://mega.nz/#!MJFlyQ7L!AcEEkbvw7aGMGLnAU8OPEVxiBhfFjThHNTvqx8CMbxQ
Use odin, put this tar file in AP, flash and you're good to go [If you're on stock rom, don't let the device boot to system as it will kill TWRP, overwriting it with stock recovery]
Remember:
You won't have access to data if it is encrypted, you'll have to format data, on the wipe menu, at the side of "Advanced Wipe" there is "Format Data"
If you plan on using the stock rom, remember to disable DM-verity
Btw, if you plan to stay on stock rom, but you broke knox and want secure folder back, try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-smali-patcher-0-7-t3680053
Please come back and tell us if it worked! (I didn't make it to work on my debloated rom)
Thanks @marky_p for writing instructions on how to install
What is working:
Everything except samsung encryption, and any <8.1 rom
Built with P580KXU1CRJ7 source, on minimal manifest twrp, android-8.1.
Sources available:
Device tree: https://github.com/unknowwiiplayer/android_device_samsung_gtanotexlwifi
Kernel: https://github.com/unknowwiiplayer/kernel_samsung_exynos7870
Instructions on how to build are on device tree's readme.md
Now please powerful devs, bring lineage 17 to us, please!!!
Reserved, because reasons
I love you ? I will test it asap on the P580!
Dang, the touch bug ist still there
Thanks very much for your work. I'll test it on my P585Y. Hope you can port android 9/10 oneui rom and lineageOs for these devices too.
I've tested twrp on my Tab A P585Y. It worked but sometimes touch is laggy and cannot do swipe action. Thanks very much for your work. Hope the next version better
Installed it on my P580 has all touch problems That plagued all the other TWRPs for this tablet. So I guess I wrong about The fact all the other versions were based off of the android Marshmallow source code as being the cause of that. That set aside it seems to work great with Oreo!!! Greatjob!!!

Thanks a lot
i tried flashing first time round on P585y
Twrp - worked fine - bit buggy/laggy on the swipe
flashed No Verity Opt Encrypt 6.1
then got stuck in this endless loop of booting - wouldnt even get to the samsung screen (still have access to download mode and recovery mode usning the associated button combination)
so i re-flashed stock firmware
re-flashed twrp
flashed supersu
again got stuck in the same endless boot loop......
any help how can i solve this?
Tried again tonight after flashing firmware ,
exact steps
Developer Options unlock Oem and allow USB Debbugging
reboot download mode
install SuperSU using ZIP (actually RAR file... would this make difference?)
went back to TWRP home menu
Reboot System.... STUCK in BOOT LOOP (doesnt even get to Samsung section - only gets to "Samsung Galaxy Tab A6 with S PEN powered by Android Page")
have waited 7 minutes now - still suck...
am i doing something wrong? is it because im using a P585y (lTE model)
i have noticed some unable to mount /data errors at times.
do i need wipe? clear cache/davlik? if so when in the process.
@unknowwiiplayer
on which stock firmware are you trying you do this?

I'm using p585y, but i dont see that error on my device. I think you should flash the latest firmware then flash twrp again.

@unknowwiiplayer Do you have a plan porting oneUi ROM for these tablet? ??

Actually no, I hate OneUI, for me the current firmware is the pinnacle of Samsung experience, sorry
I do have some plans but I'm big noob and college will kill me if I focus on developing a ROM now :c
Okay, so I have SM P580 running 8.1. I can flash TWRP fine, but cannot flash anything after that without a bunch of errors!?!?
Thanks...

I think that I'd have to build it again for your model using the latest kernel sources for your device, but for now I'm busy with college's online classes
I left instructions on my github sources, you can give it a try on building your own TWRP, as I don't have your device, I cannot ensure that if I biuld it will work, but it should tho

Yes… was I not supposed to?
Also, could anyone direct me to the correct files to root this thing... enlighten me as to the process? I can't find any working info on it!?!?
Sorry to ask, but I'm new to this tablet(sm p580) & it is quite frustrating TBH.
Thanks guys...
… crickets up in here

I did format, then flash dm verity thing… got a bunch of errors. I'll recreate & get screens.
Could you direct me to files needed to try & root this thing?
Any help is appreciated… oops on that unrelated pic
