How do I update PingPong Rooted S6 Edge?

Model Number: SM-G925V
Android Version: 5.02
I know I can't use the OTA update, so how do I update?
This totally depends on what your build number is.
If your ROM version is G925VVRU1AOC3 then follow this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...nt/trailblazer101-lightlycleaned-rom-t3128758
If your ROM version is G925VVRU1AOE2 and you desire the latest build (which breaks root), I recomend you manually update after you follow this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6-edge/general/sm-g925f-s6-firmware-thread-t3078841
Let me know if you had any issues
Newest update

Does any one know a way to root with current update in place? To be honest I don't much care about the Knox trip. I want to install new roms and I never want to see samsung music player

As far as I am aware, there is no way to root the latest build, and likely never will be. If you read many of the threads, they all say the same thing, namely the OF1 build breaks root, has a kernel date that patches the exploit used in PingPong root, and makes it impossible to downgrade the firmware. There are plenty of ways to trip knox, yet none of them will root the latest build of the Verizon Galaxy S6 Edge. On the plus side, the latest build does have radio improvements.

Likely never for this variant.

I hope someone figures out a way to create roms for verizon variants based on other carriers or something...

If you had taken the time to actually search (you don't even need the search function), you would have learned the easy way rather than making 3 threads all asking how to root an AT&T that:
SM-G900A running JellyBean (5.1) and MarshMallow (6.0.1) can not be rooted.
Stop creating umpteen threads asking the same damned thing or the mods will end up banning you for breaking the rules.

I don't think that's completely right. At the moment 5.1.1 Lollipop is rooted if you are PA2 or under. Marshmallow remains unrooted but it is possible to downgrade to 5.1.1 PA2 for root.

Hi norbarb.
Thanks for all the updates for the S6, they have been a big help to me updating my phone.
I got the S6 Active today G890A, just checked the forums here, and was sad to see that the newest Odin files available take 3 sideloads to get to Nougat. Even this is only available through the hard work of a member named lirex.
Any chance you can find Nougat for this phone?

Couple of questions about Note 8

Hello all.
I just received an "unlocked" Sprint Note 8 cellphone N950U and Im a little confused.
I used to had a Note 4 that i flashed with a U firmware that removed all the bloatware, is this avaible for the Note 8?
Why arent custom roms or a stable root (magisk) avaible for this cellphone?
Had a lot of time retired from Samsung side (OnePlus guy here) but was stolen during a car accident that i had this weekend.
Thanks a lot and dont forget your safety belt while driving!

EDIT: Never mind... wrong link if you want to root the phone. This is your only option to root on snapdragon. I would suggest you read through that thread.

Note 8 is locked bootloader ....there will be no twrp for it until it's unlocked ....which probably won't ever happen .. root is available but not once it's updated past bootloader v3 ...it's the only phone I have had that I didn't root ....I have flashed the Oreo roms and the unlocked versions .... But there aren't any custom roms ...

Oreo has not been OFFICIALLY released for the Note8. There has been some leaked builds, but none for the unlocked U1 firmware. So if you want Oreo, you'll have to go with carrier firmware.

Dear God no. Unless you want a brick.
Now, seriously, all of your questions have been answered in detail, and in guides, here on XDA. I highly encourage you to use the search bar and do some research of your own.

You asked about unlocked firmware. That would be U1 firmware.
