i have tried a lot of roms for this phone. the AOSP roms seem to eat my battery alive. so i prefer stock rooted. i am rooted. bootloader is unlocked. which 5.1.1 stock rom is based on the latest build? there's so many i don't know. i thought about keep taking OTA to figure out which 5.1.1 is the latest but gave up after a few hours of updating. if someone out there knows which 5.1.1 is the latest please share and point me to a stock rooted rom for that build if you can. i have gone google nuts with no avail. thanks in advance.
Anyone? Lol

A lot if not all 5.1 ROM dev has been stopped because everyone's focus now is 6.0. You can try aicp, I believe they're still making 5.1 ROMs
Why not just flash the latest stock system.img and boot.img via fastboot, then before you boot up first time, flash supersu.zip from twrp recovery?
All factory images are here. Extract the system.img and boot.img https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en

This is probably the problem: Did you flash the entire stock SBF file for your carrier -before- you tried to install the roms that aren't working?
I didn't check them all, but the Eclipse rom you linked specifically says in the OP that you need to do this. It is because it requires you to be on the 4.4.2 boot.img (kernel) and baseband. You likely have mismatched versions because you have been flashing other ROMS.
Just follow the instructions in the "Return to Stock" thread to flash back to the most recent OFFICIAL firmware you were on. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DOWNGRADE! If at any point you had the 4.4.3 OFFICIAL ROM on the phone, do NOT flash 4.4.2
Also, if you ever had the 4.4.3 boot.img (kernel) on there, Eclipse specifically says it requires you to be on the 4.4.2 Kernel/baseband.
You need to be really careful to not downgrade. Doing this has left many X users with bricks...
Can you give that a shot and let us know if it fixes your issue?
Good Luck
No, plz Check the other rom , that rom too is a cm based rom i gues but it doesn't give me any trouble,
Also I tried flashing those rom over my stock rom but TWRP just says FAILED
I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 AT&T OA1 (G900A) and I cannot get the phone to take a custom rom flash. First I downgrade to NCE using ODIN 3.09, check install from unknown sources, then I install towelroot and successfully root the phone. Install SuperSU and update the binary, reboot, install Busybox. Shut down and go back into download mode and use ODIN to flash the OA1 kernel. I then install either flashfire or SafeStrap and then instruct them to wipe the phone other than internal memory and flash the rom zip. I have tried several roms and everytime I get back to the same thing... the default recovery screen with a dead android.
Any suggestions or ideas what I am doing wrong?

After downgrading to nce and rooting there is no need to update the kernel back to OA1 as all the kitkat roms are based off the nce build. Our you can root then upgrade to lollipop using this method
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3076803 as the devs for the s5 roms have moved to 5.0.

I have tried to do the flash several times without going back to the OA1 kernel too, but I thought that may have been the issue. I figured out quickly it wasn't.
One thing I may have been missing is that I am trying to flash lollipop roms. Is that my problem? Do I need to be flashing a KitKat rom unless I flash the rom to linked to in your post? How do I get a lollipop rom flashed if that's the issue?

You can't flash lollipop roms unless your already on lollipop. You'll have to stick with kitkat roms unless you upgrade using the method in the link that i posted. Once you upgrade to lollipop using that method you'll be able to flash lollipop roms.

Good deal. Which one did you go with. I've ran alliance, twi5ted, and TMS 2.0. I personally like TMS best. Seems like it runs smother for me.

I went with TMS 2.0, but I was hoping to get a Cyanogenmod based rom installed. I have tried several times to install the Fusion rom using FlashFire, but each time I get an unmount failed notice and have to go back to NCE.
What do you like about TMS?

First off you can't flash cyanogenmod cause of the locked bootloader. We have to stick with TW base roms. I like the stability about TMS2.0 plus the fact that the dev is still working on it. Most all the other devs have went to other phones. TalkingMonkeys is a great dev and is constantly working on mods and features.
I Rooted awhile back and I am searching the forums to find information on how to update my current 5.1.1 to Marshmallow....
Should I simply flash a new rom with ODIN? Or I need a new Kernel? I'm trying to be overly cautious. Where do I find the new Kernel or Rom? I went to the SkyHigh page that I rooted from originally but it looks like he has not updated since 5.1.1.
Any help is appreciated??
Thanks,
KJ

Hi, go a head and download a Marshmallow Firmware from here:
Firmware for sm-n920p
use this tool to download faster:
SamFirm - Samsung firmware downloader
flash via odin and then search for a custom kernel. I used SkyHigh kernel for marshmallow but he isn't building kernels anymore and took all of his links down (Not in XDA) so I guess you are out of luck. But there are other custom kernels you can try.
I believe you would have better results if you search in Sprint Section (If I'm not mistaking N920P is the Sprint variant)

Go to ndroid.site , search that in google. there u can find latest skyhigh kernel

Here's the sprint firmware. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24545065934258585 You'll lose everything so backup any pictures, music, etc.
That'll get you up to date on MM. Then I'd sign into your google/samsung accounts so you can get onto the phone and take the system OTA to the latest. Then used odin to flash TWRP, twrp-3.0.2-0-M-nobleltespr.tar. Don't let it auto reboot. Rather once flashed manually boot into recovery. If you let it reboot automatically the phone will overwrite TWRP with stock. Once you boot in recovery flash SuperSU, BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328. Then you have stock MM rooted on latest. That's what I'm running along with systemless xposed.
Though there's also the latest MOAR Rom that has a lot of options you can flash in TWRP. http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...m-moar-pc3-mm-rom-v3-0-making-smoars-t3364338
Galaxy Note 5 SM-N920G I need some help here. After a long time using custom roms, recently I've tried to flash a stock rom to my device (it was an Indian nougat rom from sammobile) and I got an error on Odin when flashing system. After that I lost my recovery (TWRP) an my Note 5 went only in download mode. Then a I flashed TWRP again and installed a custom rom again. Now I'm trying to flash any stock rom and I am getting random errors like "device 1 binary 0". I've tried many different roms and 0 luck. Someone could help me here? I never have this problem before and I just don't know more what to do.

Peace..
I'm having the same exact problem--I found firmware that only flashed to radio--then abruptly stopped--wiping my system, so i'm stuck in download mode, phone will not power off. Instead of flashing Nougat ROM, i opted to flash "stock" MM firmware (6.01) and let phone update to Nougat on its on---then re-root it. As of now I have a paper-weight and it appears there's no support for 920G
Have you all tried Smart Switch?

Paper-weight? That's bad... Can't you flash a custom recovery on Odin and install a custom rom? I still can do that.

It's because you flashed Nougat and that's Android 7.0 and it now thinks you're trying to "downgrade", which is pretty much blocked by trying to use "stock" roms.. The only thing you could probably do is find the stock rom you're interested in flashing but make sure it can be flashed via TWRP.. I don't think you can use Odin now to flash backwards "downgrade" to another stock rom after flashing Nougat 7.0..

Well I figured out you can downgrade from Nougat to Marshmallow but that's only to a specific firmware version. Depending upon what bootloader has been flashed (meaning if you flashed Nougat bootloader you can only go back to Marshmallow with the same bootloader level).. But this is only working (surprisingly) on the locked bootloaders of Verizon and AT&T.. The other S6 Edge Plus I have with an unlocked bootloader and tripped knox that I recently acquired will not accept nothing stock which is unusual, but I'm still working on that one.
I have a Droid Turbo already rooted with BHB27's Oreo ROM, works awesome. So I got my son the same phone and went about trying to root it and install the same ROM. I had software bricked it but used RSDLite and got a stock ROM installed and now I can boot into Marshmallow. But now the wi-fi doesn't work. I have tried flashing different radios and modems with no luck. I need the wi-fi to work so that I can download sunshine and connect so that sunshine can root. Any advice on how to get the wi-fi working? It might be the wrong stock ROM, but I can boot it. It was previously on Marshmallow 6.0.1 prior to all of this so if anyone has a link to the correct stock ROM I can try and flash it. I have downloaded so many "stock" ROMS I'm not sure which was is the proper one.
Thanks for any advice. Any questions just ask.
