Thank you, as always, for making things easy for us to upgrade. Time to dust off the old Tmo NE now that MM is here...

It's been awhile, but my usual steps to upgrade a Samsung device is this:
1) Have the factory image, rooted ROM, latest TWRP, and Odin ready.
2) Backup, etc.
3) Odin the latest factory to get the latest radio, bootloader, etc.
4) Odin the latest TWRP.
5) Flash the rooted (this) ROM in TWRP.

I would probably wipe and start clean rather than messing with a dirty upgrade from LP to MM.

All good?

exactly... (maybe between flashing latest TWRP and flashing rom... a full data,cache,system & dalvik wipe x3) and you are good to go... Enjoy!

Weird... My 915T is stuck on the 915T boot page and the phone is burning up. The first boot never completes.

1) The factory tar boots fine.
2) I wiped data/caches/system multiple times before flashing TEK.
3) I re-downloaded the TEK ROM and re-flashed several times. The zip file integrity is good.
4) Waited 40 minute the first time, around 20 minutes each subsequent time (the factory took around 5 minutes to boot).
5) Tried wiping, reflashing, etc.

Still stuck on boot screen each time, phone hot.

Any ideas? Thanks.

Maybe TWRP itself is bad. Try going back a revision or two. And/or try newer/older Odin as well.

Problem solved? Tried with stock and Freeza's Kernel? Also try flashing the latest SuperSU right after flashing rom... Really strange... (last resort... Backup your internal data, remove sd card... Wipe internal, and try again)

Thanks for the replies.

New observations:
1) After a fresh TEK flash, on boot, the phone always hangs at the T-Mo splash. If I wait a minute or so, battery pull, boot, I will then get the green "Android Starting/optimizing apps" screen and it boots and restarts fine thereafter. I can consistently reproduce this behavior.

2) I'm using Odin 3.11.1 from Sammobile. The fact that the factory launches reliably, I'll presume that Odin is okay.

3) I was using TWRP 3.0.0.0, I'll try 3.0.2.0 and report back if it makes a difference. For other readers, TWRP tars and zips for 915 here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-edge/development/twrp-915fy-915tmo-moment-t3129459/page10

4) The latest SuperSU and Freeza are good suggestions. I'll report back if they make a difference.

For information:
A) I realized that a /data wipe wipes out SuperSU (which makes sense, with SuperSU not installing in /system anymore), so I'll keep the latest SuperSU on the SD if/when I need it.

B) I discovered that the main branch Xposed causes the phone to hang at the T-Mo splash screen (what I reported above does not have Xposed installed). I have been using N6P since release, so I've been away from Samsung for awhile. I read that i will have to use a custom build Xposed. I'll look into that once I can do more testing with the boot issue. Once it is resolved I will move onto the 910T and 915P. These phones are not my daily drivers, so I can take my time and test.

Cheers.

Report:

Newer/latest TWRP made no difference.
Latest SuperSU 2.74-2 made no difference.
Freeza made no difference.

Each separately applied and tested.

The workaround at this point is to do a battery pull after a few minutes and restart.

There are some phones that have issues updating to marshmallow just the same way you described.
I will suggest the following:

-reboot to recovery. Use 3.0.0.0
-wipe everything 3 times
-reboot to download from recovery
-Flash on odin COK2
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/61580/N915TUVU2COK2_N915TTMB2COK2_TMB/
-wait till it loads on your phone
-I usually leave it 5 min once loaded before touching it.
-Skip all the welcome screen and log in pop ups. Try to update from settings if success good if not continue next step
-reboot back to download and flash DPE3 from odin
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/76558/N915TUVU2DPE3_N915TTMB2DPE3_TMB/
-wait till the phone loads again
- leave the phone 5 min once loaded
- skip all that log in and welcome screen
- reboot back to odin and flash recovery 3.0.0.0
- reboot to recovery and wipe everything but internal
- Flash tekhd rom from internal or otg.
- reboot finger crossed and wait 15 min
-good luck

Thanks for your reply. Prior to your post, I did the following:

1) Re-Odin'ed the factory to restore the factory kernel (from previously testing Freeza)
2) Odin'd TWRP 3.0.0, flashed TWRP 3.0.2, flashed TEK, SSu 2.74-2, Xposed-custom

I did the above knowing that I could just do a battery pull and everything will work thereafter. On the initial boot, the behavior was the same, hanging at the T-Mo splash screen. A few minutes later, I hear the phone vibrate briefly. Because of that, I decided to wait a bit longer. A few minutes later, the phone booted with the initial setup screen.

Mind you, I waited 40 minutes last night. Go figure......

Backup password Bug

Does this ROM have that annoying fingerprint scanner bug where when the phone restarts or every other sleep wake it asks for backup password. It also does this weird soft reset thing where the phone fast boots on its own then asks for my backup password.

I am on stock update. Just some bugs I saw from updating

 

[soNburst]

i have this same issue except mine won't boot after pulling the battery...

Does this one still have all the annoying Samsung and facebook apps. I hate how FB is caked into TW, It doesn't even show up as a regular app so you can uninstall or add to greenify

 

[soNburst]

so the step where i am supposed to flash recovery doesn't work because not rooted?
