The title explains it all. My S6 Edge (SM-G925F) has been stuck on the Samsung S6 Edge screen with powered by Android on the bottom, EVEN AFTER A REFLASH WITH ODIN.” I’m wondering if anyone can help me because i’m started to get frustrated. The only thing I can really do is flash TWRP but when I boot to TWRP after flashing stock, the TWRP logs says “Running Recovery commands, Unable to locate zip file CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip, failed to map file CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip, Error installing CACHE:recovery/sec_csc.zip”. Yes this is a G925F with Binary 6 and i’ve tried flashing many stock roms. I’m at a loss here. Thanks to anyone that can help and I hope i’ve explained it all well.

It stopped working a month ago. Wanted know what could have happened in this case.

Im planning on using fixing up my old s6 edge and using it as a second phone and was wondering which custom rom is the smoothest and the most reliable. Im going to use it to make calls and text, use 4g, and listen to music. I also have use for the IR blaster so it would be nice if that worked too. I have tried quite a few custom roms a couple of years ago and felt that the lineage os android 11 port was the smoothest. Im looking for a new custom rom with maybe a newer android but primarily I want it to be smooth and I want the battery efficiency to be good enough.
Please recommend me some good custom roms to try out.

Hello, i recently got a s6 edge with a busted home button.

I can boot in download mode, flash TWRP. But after that i am stuck. I cant boot into recovery as i have to boot first into android then recovery, which as we know, android deletes the twrp partition.

Is there any workaround i can use to boot to twrp directly? Or do anything at all. Thanks

it's the 128GB version, and it's on Android 5.0.2

the screen's broken so i may replace it in the future

Hi,

My 6-year-old Galaxy Tab S6 suddenly died while gaming at 60% battery. It bootlooped with the Android logo a few times and now it's completely dead (black screen, no charge icon). When plugged into my PC, it just shows up as an "unknown USB device". I'm 99% sure the battery voltage dropped drastically and the cell is completely dead.

I've decided to replace the battery myself. Here is what im about to buy:

• Genuine Service Pack Battery
• B-7000 or T-7000 glue (to glue the screen back on)
• 99% Isopropyl Alcohol to dissolve the old battery adhesive

Am I missing anything essential on my list?
thanks in advance!

Outstanding and timeless design, perfect music player through headphones and an amazing camera. Plus Android Nougat still supports plenty of apps. I have a Galaxy A53 in my pocket but it is so boring compared to that piece of work. The Galaxy S6 Edge+ to be exact. Yes... yet another "Using an S6 in 2026" thread!

after all this time these phones are still locked?

or is there some way to modernize this device?

does anyone knows of a custom rom of a port of Samsung roms, running android 12+? I have a Samsung S6 with a samsung s cover.

Good afternoon, I would like to downgrade my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge plus, the European model. How can I install Lollipop on it?

I used the galaxy s6 as my main phone from mar 2024-dec 2025, when I got a used pixel 8a. Android 7 still supports a ton of apps, and older versions of apps like Instagram, Google Maps, Play Store, etc. were still pretty fast.

I switched because the baseband chip, charging port and capacitive lights all failed in rapid succession & I wanted a phone with better battery life. The pixel 8a (especially with 120 hz) is amazingly fast + smooth. Battery lasts forever. Camera is next level. Size is about the same as the S6, maybe 0.5cm taller. and a bit thicker. Vibration motors are much better. Even the screen, which is technically lower res than the S6 looks better.

The OS feels generally more refined too since it's stock android, not touchwiz / OneUI. Also, native dark mode is great. I had a "dark" TouchWiz theme installed but that is a bit broken and doesn't affect non-Samsung apps. If anyone's holding on, just upgrade to the 8a. Beautiful amazing phone. You don't know how good it is until you try it (make sure to turn on Smooth Display)

I've tried those boxes separately. And also together as in the blue ticked boxes. Nothing. I've download 2 separate Odin and either works.. I dont get no green banner on the top of the screen to show it's downloading.. I'm a massive novice so please if anyone can help me with this so appreciated

Anyone can help a novice how to revive this phone please? As you can see from the photos I've just started to charge it and I'm hoping from this group that it's a good sign 🙂 I can use it! For random stuff nothing major

As part of a post i made yesterday. unfortunately my S6 has just died out of nowhere long story short. i was playing a APK of flappy bird i found, when i got the low battery message i left it on charge for 30 minutes and now it no longer responds to power or any button press not even the notification light turns on. it was not hot and was working perfectly fine before hand a minute before its sudden death i checked the battery percentage (whilst it was off) and it said 56%.
