What is the correct custom recovery to root the new 6.01 update? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+

I have tried several versions of custom recoveries to flash via Odin to root the new tmobile 6.01 fireward that was released today and have not had any luck so far.
So far I have tried using the recommended versions of twrp 3.0.2-0 with no luck:
https://dl.twrp.me/zeroltetmo/twrp-3.0.2-0-zeroltetmo.img.tar.html
https://dl.twrp.me/zenlte/twrp-3.0.2-0-zenlte.img.tar.html
Has anybody successfully rooted with the 6.01 T-mobile firmware that was released today? If so could you please provide a link with the exact custom recovery file you used.
Thank you in advance.

Search for 3.0.2 nobleltezt twrp and download latest version (This recovery is for Note 5 but works awesome, and S6 Edge+ TWRP stuck or won't boot)
Flash in Odin but remember to uncheck auto-reboot then reboot manually with volume down and power button combo.

To anyone having probs. rooting the new DPD1 Marshmallow update, follow the guide HERE. Looks like dirtybudha has compiled everything in one post. Hit the thanks buttons!!!!!! It works perfect for both devices.

So follow those instructions after already on the edge plus 6.0 firmware? So we would be flashing Note5 over existing edge stuff, right?

Proper TWRP and SuperSU for S6 Edge+
Here are the links to the proper versions of TWRP and SuperSU for
the Marshmallow 6.0 update/firmware for the G928T S6 Edge+ and

These work 100% on both phones, they have been

Correct, I odined MM from Sammobile for the TMO S6edge+, this morning but could not get rooted and Titanium up and running all day, flashed and odined probably 15 times. Long story short, both firmwares are DPD1, and work fine.

Ok that makes sense. I'm using a COKC 5.1.1 note5 ROM on my edge plus so I guess it's the same principle just on a different Android version.
Thanks

I know exactly what you are doing wrong...
Go into Settings>Developers options and enable the OEM unlock.
By default the OEM unlock is always enabled so you must have
disabled it!!! LOL
That's why you are having issues with odin flashing twrp.
Keep the OEM unlock ENABLED all the time.
Good luck,
Have a great day!

Is there an odin tar for mm yet or bootloader and modem
Tia

I have 2 questions
1. Always private mode is lost by making root in 6.0.1?
2.in g928t 6.0.1 you do not need a custom kernel?

I just got this phone (SM-928T) and switched to Tmobile 2 days ago. Much happier with-mobile by the way. Anyway, I am on 5.1.1 AOGD and was weary about installing OTA updates so I didn't take incase I wouldn't be able to root. I currently have root via CF-Autoroot for 5.1.1 but, for whatever reason I cannot get TWRP installed on it though. Once I do it, it soft bricks and upon rebooting I get an error in the top left stating "RECOVERY IS NOT SEANDROID ENFORCING" I can only get back into ODIN. Recovery doesn't boot. I have to reflash with CF-Autoroot in order to get my phone to boot again. So my question is, if I install stock 6.0 firmware via ODIN or Smart switch returning me to stock 6.0 and "unroot" then flash then these files I should be on 6.0 and achieviable root again? Thanks for any info!
- Sorry If this is a dumb question, but I haven't been in the rooting scene in awhile since I had a Note 4 that couldn't be rooted on Verizon for about 2 years.

This is from the Renegade Rom page on Android Development, IT WORKS EVEN IF YOU ARE ON BOL1.
Start with step 5
Proper flashing/upgrading to this ROM.. IF you're thinking about flashing OJ7 Roms, take note of the following:
First, Make a TWRP backup
Make a Titanium backup and Backup your Files to PC (i.e. DCIM/Downloads/SMS/TWRP) as you might have to factory full wipe if no boot after ODIN!! Yes no more pictures of your cat Fluffy
ODIN OJ7 Full Update/Firmware Click Here.
After returning to STOCK - bootup and go to software update and take ANY OTA
{{START HERE WITH A NEW PHONE}}{{START HERE IF YOU'RE ALREADY ON OI1}}
Go to Settings--->About Device--->Tap "Build Number" 10 times and you will unlock Developer Options---> unlock bootloader (See Attachment)
Flash THIS TWRP in Odin (compatible with 5.1.1 OFE and up) and you will be good to go with root+recovery on 5.1.1!!
Boot into TWRP; Wipe (Cache,Dalvik,System); Flash a RENEGADE OJ7-V1 Rom
Finally done!! Now you get all the juiciness of the Renegade work and any mods.
Depending on your install method... The initial boot WILL take up to 10 minutes on a clean install, SO PLEASE BE PATIENT!!!!
Please check post 2 and 3 if you're having issues or questions after flashing a Rom

Root Marshmallow 6.0 Update

Hello I was able to easily root the newly released 6.0 update for the sprint galaxy s6.
First download
Cfroot for the G920F model
Download
Flash with Odin 3.10.6 or higher..
Wait for the script to finish etc and once the phone reboots, force the phone into download mode and flash the stock 6.0 recovery
Download
Then force the phone back into recovery mode and wipe cache then reboot phone back to system
Enjoy rooted 6.0 MM !
Props to the mighty Chainfire and his wizard skills
ok am i waiting when it attempts to boot recovery or just press the buttons to boot it into download again to re flash the stock recovery?
All we need now is twrp. I havent tried this root process yet.

after flashing cfroot you must wait until it finished the process..it will take a min...then after cfroot tells you it's done rooting the phone...you flash the stock recovery

i must be doing it wrong then? it attempts to boot a recovery that is not seandroid enforcing last time i tried to install the custom recovery that was for the older firmware it stuck on that screen for ever and i needed to reflash my phone. just a little worried that its gonna get stuck there.
thank you for finding this root method

yep
i waited then it went into cfroot
we got a dump of the stock recovery (im assuming thats what the other file is to flash) so im sure it wont be long till we get a custom recovery:good:
Confirmed, works for boost mobile 6.0.1 marshmallow.
Would TWRP 3.0.0 work with this or are we gonna have to wait for that update? Need my xposed modules for sure
We dont need a MM twrp....the current twrp will work just fine to flash a MM custom rom, someone just needs to make a rom.zip we flash it on top of LP and profit.

Can't we use flashify to install zip files? I've used xposed on stock ROMs before I thought.
will this work for 925p?
Awesome now i can mess with titanium backup. . Thanks Guess supersu is not working it says no su in the binary. Redid the steps i used odin 3.10.7 it didnt boot after the cfauto was flashed it actually booted into recovery is not seandroid enforcing. forced into download mode pushed down restarted again it went to the recovery is not seandroid enforcing screen. So i flashed the recovery cleared cache phone booted thought i was good to go nope lol. Also the same happened when i tried the twrp with odin but i had to flash the rom to get back up and running so heads up.
Guys I would definitely wait for a custom recovery. What if something happens and you have no backup?! Also, you need a deodexed ROM for Xposed to work anyway! This method would be good if all you care about is little stuff like AdBlocking.
you don't need deodexed rom anymore there is an exposed that work on 5.1.1 adn 6.0 but we just need a recovery to flash it.
but i agree i would wait to have a confirmed recovery for marshmallow

Prettttyy sure you need a deodexed ROM.

"Samsung made a lot of changes to ART without providing the sources, that's why it took a while to workaround some of their changes, more information here.
It supports Stock and close to stock Roms."

I'm totally down to be a test dummy lol. Can anyone explain if flashify would be a replacement for recovery? I know the international folks used it to prevent certain things from tripping Knox, but at this point I'm pretty sure we all have tripped it by now

Had the same issue...
Mine would boot but would stay on.
wiped
flashed tars
Be careful MM is touchie.
Even deleting normal apps you would of on JB can freeze up the system.
If you have tep your fine, just tell them after the last update your phone started rebooting. They replaced mine no hassle. Check out my post on how to get tep if your past the 60 days if you don't have it.
DO NOT USE SAMSUNG WARRANTY WITH TRIPPED KNOXS! ONLY TEP, SPRINT DOESN'T CARE.
Do we have a custom kernel yet for MM? Trying to debate rather to go MM or to stay on lollipop...
Anyone having issues with lag after installing xposed?
Just got a S6 Edge + for a real good price and it came with 6.0.1 PG1. Rooted, TWRP and hotspot, and it's all good so far.
Thanks.
I'm having a problem with xposed. Modules are doing nothing

simplkernel for g925t on 6.0.1

Hello, i tried rooting my galaxy s6 edge g925t, on 6.0.1, and was successful but than tried to install twrp recovery and the phones bricks.. Later i get into the downloading mode and reinstall the stock ROM, than later i reinstall the root(CF-Auto-Root-zeroltetmo-zeroltetmo-smg925t.zip) and was still successful at the root. I figure out i need a custom kernel that will work for my android version, i cant find any kernels that will work for my 6.0.1. i still have a simplkernel for lollipop but i know that one wont work. Is there anyone that can help me find a simplkernel for my model phone and android version!
Never mind
I found a twrp/kernel recovery online and it worked, its all good now!!
I'm still using stock kernel which has no issues like in call audio or wifi problems.
only twrp that worked fine was Arter97 modified version.
as far as root rooted with version 2.71 Beta.

Already have setup rooted working. I want to experiment with International versions. me thinks I still need a TMobile 6.x kernel to work since I already tried and wouldn't boot up. Nandroid back to my stock rooted TMobile Smartswitch installed version works fine.

So you'll tell us you got it to work and you'll tell us you successfully found a TWRP and kernel but you don't give us any way to find the programs so that we can use them as well which is the point of this website as far as I'm concerned glad your phone works but this post is useless...

I screwed up. Help getting back to 5.1.1!????

So I got bored today. I decided to give MM another go. BIG mistake. I can't get back to lollipop. I made a TWRP backup but restoring from it gets stuck on the Samsung screen. It just says Kernel is not seandroid enforcing. I installed MM via odin and it must of upgraded the boot loader because now when I try to flash 5.1.1 via odin I get sw rev check fail device 4 binary 3 on my phone. HELP! I can't even get MM past the "LTE Plus" boot screen on MM. Any advice would be wonderful! Otherwise my s6 is a nice paperweight and I'm stuck without a phone
AFAIK, if you are on one of the 3-4 latest MM builds, you CANNOT go back to 5.1.1 anymore.
Samsung added the anti-downgrade function to those builds already.
You cannot downgrade as yaibakt pointed out. After installing the latest MM version via Odin, boot to stock recovery and wipe all user data. It will boot then.

Follow my guide here to get up to the latest firmware, rooted and with TWRP: https://forum.xda-developers.com/sp...uide-links-files-update-root-restore-t3366862
