[ROM][6.0.1][UNOFFICIAL]Paranoid Android 6.0 for Galaxy S6 [AOSP]

[Tonylel]

Hey guys! Paranoid Android is finally back!
Here I built a first release to share with you. The rom is based on AOSP sources, Paranoid code and Cyanogenmod stability fixes, plus other things hand-written for S6 good compatibility. Now stop talking and enjoy Paranoid!

Disclaimer:

I take no responsibility for lost data, broken devices or anything else you encountered
during/after flashing this ROM.
You are responsible for what you are using on your devices!
Do some research before doing anything and always make sure to have a backup!

NOTE: This ROM is based on AOSP. So make sure you follow exactly the steps I write to install.

Download:
Mod Edit
Link removed

Bugs:
some lags, camera starts 50% of times, frame drops here and there playing videos.

Steps:
flash 5.1.1 with odin (cause of bootloader)
flash paranoid (gapps not now, it won't boot!)
reboot
back to recovery
system and cache wipe
flash gapps
reboot

hey man. I am willing to test this ROM, but you are telling us to flash android 5.1.1 to our phone? I mean, the title is saying that It is Android 6.0.1?

 

[alfo2004]

I am willing to test this rom too. But we have bootloader for android 6 and we cannot flash back to bootloader 5.1.1. How can we flash this Rom exactly? Which bootloader exatly do you mean??

You need to flash the stock Android 5.1.1 Rom with Odin because you cant flash the cm 13 Rom over an Android M bootloader (kernel not seandroid enforcing)

Doesn't exactly make sense that it says Kernel not seandroid enforcing, when its a bootloader problem, and the fact that he is calling it a 6.0.1 ROM, when he asks us to DOWNgrade. I mean, what about all the 6.0.1 functions? Will we loose them? Like doze etc..

 

[Audioboxer]

Woah, nice one, out of nowhere.

How did you get the camera partially working? Hopefully your hard work can help our progress with this device.

 

[Mr.pakkis]

Any links for a SM-g925F 5.1.1 file?

 

[Diaze]

holy ****. amazing
too bad i cant flash it cuz my chqrging port is broken..and odin dsnt recognize my phone anymore((

Steps:
flash 5.1.1 with odin (cause of bootloader)
flash paranoid (gapps not now, it won't boot!)
reboot
back to recovery
system and cache wipe
flash gapps
reboot

These steps make no sense. Why would you flash paranoid and later wipe the system to flash gapps.. ? When you wipe system the paranoid will be gone too.

Btw the install is taking ages..stuck at "patching system image unconditionally" for like an half hour..

 

[Mr.pakkis]

I cant downgrade. Any help guys? it fails at the NAND write start...

Just flash the 5.1.1 bootloader for 925f

In Odin flash it under BL

 

[sieerra]

What about fingerprint?

Its really hard to find a link. Do you have one?

 

[Noxxxious]

I already gave you the link -.- => Click on the "925f"

 

[Mr.pakkis]

xD sorry, didnt see it. I tried, but when I try to use the choose the file, I get an error saying md5 error! Binary is invalid
What to do now...? Can I perhaps try to flash it under AP?
Edit; It doesnt work underneath AP.

Reason why you get the error is because you need the delete the .md5 extension from the name just to be .tar. Anyway dont risk it and flash the bootloader i post now.

1. Are you sure you have a 925F not 925I or something.
2.Try this bootloader: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347786560

I wonder if you can install the rom because for my its busy installing for 30+ min.

I am 100% positive I have a 925F. Used tons of ROMs, flashed kernels and generally changing stuff on my phone. After flashing the bootloader, should I boot into the recovery and install the ROM?

 

[KɪɴG]

Not working

I have tried flashing this rom for like 5 times. Every time it get stuck on this:
"patching system image unconditionally"

What I did was:
- Install Lollipop
- Root
- TWRP Recovery
- Flash Rom

I will request you to please provide more detailed steps.

 

[Mr.pakkis]

Well, I think that the developer should add support for the 6.0.1 bootloader...

Also didnt work either. In the corner of the download side its written SW REV. CHECK FAIL. DEVICE: 3, BINARY: 2

 

[Tonylel]

Yes guys you can just flash bootloader 5.1.1 only. This allows aosp flash, it won't downgrade to 5.1.1, the flash will UPGRADE to 6.0.1 later.
For those who have some problem while flashing try perform a full wipe (system/cache/dalvik) and if still persist try change/update your recovery.

Right, I forgot: fingerprint not working because really no sources for that.
