So simple question:
At the moment, can I install a custom ROM on an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 G920A running Android version 6.0.1?

No. No root other than tethered. Junk phone for Dev purposes.

I see the one for 5.1 but not MM
Then you would need to downgrade Android versions to use the tethered root because there isn't one for marshmallow. Last time I checked there was no way to downgrade after moving to mm. Just out of luck unless this device gets cracked. Which since it has not happened yet it looking doubtful for the future.

No public information. Officially "coming soon", that's what they repeat since may 2015. Theorically the 5.1.1 rom development is finished, but it isn't released yet. I check it daily since september, and already asked the customer service a few times. They couldn't tell me an ETA.
Why I bought it ????????? Fckng traders-dealers.....

It's a quite good device with kitkat, too. And there's a chance that it gets lollipop in the future, although only a minimal chance.
Just like the title implies, does anyone think it may be possible to root the att/Verizon versions with towelroot as was possible with the s5? Any brave soul want to try? Any dev believe this idea has feet?
No it does not work

Is there any potential for a tool to exploit the same hole as towelroot did on the s5 to gain root on the s6/edge?
Could be possible depending if there is an exploit that has not been patched
I dream that one day we will have root.

If you did not know yet, Chainfire has released Autoroot for the S6 and S6 Edge. Go to the Chain Fire website for download.

That's correct. AT&T and Verizon variants have a locked bootloader. No root for you. (Seinfeld joke)

No one has cm12. You can tell just by going into android development and original development. There are no non-TW roms there.

I hear Samsung released sources for the galaxy s6. So maybe that'll all change sooner then later?

Won't change without first having an unlocked bootloader and root for everybody.

Holy ****. You're not serious are you? The only S6 variants with a locked bootloader are ATT and Verizon. And the only people that don't have root are the ones running 5.1.1. Stop spreading false information!
Hey, I have been out of the rooting game for some time, but I was wondering if this phone can be unlocked and flashed with something like cyanogenmod? I have done research but can't find anything conclusive. Thanks!

I presume you are referring to the Samsung Galaxy S6 (SM-G920T)?
If so then yes you can flash SU and TWRP via Odin and install a compatible ROM through recovery.
That's because the bootloader is not locked. Or at least at the moment with 5.1.1

Is this in regard to the T-Mobile model?

Yes. The T-Mobile S6 variant (SM-G920T) does NOT have a locked a bootloader at present.
The S7 however does and the suspicion (though unfounded at the moment) is that once T-mobile releases the Marshmallow update for the S6 it may lock the bootloader. Thus, it is probably going to be a good idea to wait on taking the Marshmallow update as soon as it is available (if root is desirable).
So will any normal Roms available for the standard GSM s7 work with the T-Mobile model? Also, is installing twrp as simple as something like a Nexus? I haven't been in the ROM game for a while, thanks for the help guys

There won't be any ROMs available for the S7 so long as the bootloader remains locked.

For the umpteenth time yes. You just need to make sure that whatever ROM you want to flash is compatible with the T-Mobile S6 variant (SM-G920T).
There is a T-Mobile Galaxy S6 Android Development forum here at XDA which will have a number of different ROMs to choose from as well as information and support for said ROMs.
Thanks man

Good suspicion. ..I thought of that right away myself thus why I returned my s7... The s6 with few tweaks is as nice in many aspects not all but suits my needs .

Yep. Really like my 64g S6 flat. And you are right, with a few tweaks it is a great device.
I've not had much time lately to do proper research or trial-and-error on this topic (especially since this is for a friend). I was wondering if it is at all possible to root the SM-G920A on 6.0.1 G920AUCU3PD6? I've checked out the other threads and they are all about updating or there's that one about flashing the Verizon stock. But nothing about just achieving root on this update.
Thanks in advance if I don't get back to the replies quickly!
Not yet to my knowledge.

Dang, lol I'm in the same situation, if you used odin all you would have to do is find the tar file :/
if the tethered root can be ported to 6.0.1 we might have something

There's nothing to port. We need an engineering kernel to leak as it did for Lollipop.
