Hey, thank you for the good work. What is needed for this phone to be officially supported?

Well, you have to find someone who wants to be a ROM maintainer for this device.
It seems still to be a very popular smartphone. It is one the most downloaded custom ROMs I build

Yeah I am asking this because I’m surprised to see all the S4, S5, S7 listed on the page but not the S6 I find it surprising

Version of /e/OS which existed previously: e-1.19.1-r-20240217-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx by @ronnz98
Version of /Recovery which existed previously: recovery e-1.19.1-r-20240217
Version of e-Apps which existed previously: see for example like ‘clover’


:unamused: The announced new BlissLauncher version is unfortunately not integrated.

:smiling_face_with_three_hearts: My quick test shows me a perfectly working /e/OS 1-20-T. Many thanks for building @ronnz98

e-1.20-“t” for SM-G920F ???
I can only see the “r” version… :thinking:

You see correctly how I made a typo :upside_down_face:
But there is a version e-1.19.1-t-20240126-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx.zip

Yes. Did not do a 1.20 T build. I plan to do a 1.21 T build

I deleted the version e-2.0-s-20240526-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx by roonz98 for you and installed e-2.1-r-20240605-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx by @roonz98 via Clean Install using OranageFox Recovery. At first quick glance, everything works as it should.

Since after update V2.2 the version /e/OS-R has no future “So R2.2 will be the last build for a couple of unofficial devices I built” I deleted this ROM for the last time and installed e-2.1-s-20240608-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx by @ronnz98 using OranageFox Recovery successfully.

I used twrp and clean installed this newest version. It seems fine, I haven’t encountered any bugs so far. Great job.

Final Updates for /e/OS-R 2.2:

For Galaxy S6 (SM-G920F) (zerofltexx):
e-2.2-r-20240719-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx.zip
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eosbuildsronnz98/files/SamsungSmartphones/e-2.2-r-20240719-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx.zip/download

For Galaxy S6 Edge (SM-G925F) (zeroltexx):
e-2.2-r-20240719-UNOFFICIAL-zeroltexx.zip
https://sourceforge.net/projects/eosbuildsronnz98/files/SamsungSmartphones/e-2.2-r-20240719-UNOFFICIAL-zeroltexx.zip/download

My manual update via adb sideload e-2.2-r-20240719-UNOFFICIAL-zerofltexx.zip is reported by TWRP as a successful installation, but after the restart the system only boots up to the animated e-logo and remains there. Nothing continues. The system cannot be used!

Only after a factory reset with loss of all data does the system restart and has to be set up again.

Switching to version ‘T’ is no longer difficult for me…

Strange, I would expect that R version work since sources did not change and from R 2.1 to R 2.2 is not a big difference. Did clean install work? Maybe your TWRP is not that that is proposed for R.
Anyway I would suggest upgrade to /e/OS-T for the S6 now

The transition from /e/OS V2.0 to V2.1 and V2.2 is also often faulty with other (also “official” /e/OS).

TWRP runs very well on “R” and “/e/OS-T”. TWRP is also fully compatible with “Local update” in /e/OS-T
