Could be preparation for ICS, Although that is just a guess.
Anytime i see anything about an update i just keep thinking it's ICS!!
Can't wait for it.

probably the one hand keyboard update

So XLA4 is the big update they're pushing out to everyone?
I was wondering what it was.

Yep, same here ... Mine's an unbranded, unlocked UK note (XEU) and I'm getting nothing through Kies or manual update on the phone. Still on KKA.

I'm in the UK and got the OTA update yesterday. I'm running a German unlocked Note from Expansys UK. Cant see any differences though tbh. :/

Anybody noticed anything new with respect to the KL7?

Info about the update
Hello guys!
I bought my Galaxy Note in France (I work there).
The PDA/PHONE/CSC are XXKKA/XXKK5/XXKK5.
Build info is Friday 11 Nov...
How is it possible to receive official updates (stock roms) without flashing?
Please do not start telling me to read guides and so on... I worked on Android platform and after this experience I am aware how preparing roms and custom stuff is obviously a great challenge, gives you great satisfaction, but makes the phone be more prone to crashes, memory leaks and so on.
Thank you in advance.

update
No update for slovakia, orange. just waiting for ICS

patient is a virtue tow weeks. when i bought my xoom, after 6 mounts of delays my daily routine was check for updates , not any more..

how far is Germany from you , just drive there and see if you will get the update

I'm sure you were joking but this actually does raise a point that people should take into consideration:
If the phone is bought from the UK but the firmware is German, then it will get German upgrades. If it's bought from amazon.de and has Chinese firmware then it will only get Asian upgrades.
It doesn't matter where you buy the phone from, it matters what country the firmware is directed at. I also own a UK note which has BRI as the sales code and I don't have any update even though I live in Finland.

Really funny... If it was only a matter of geographical location just a dns static route would fix the trouble of getting updates...
Please avoid useless posts.

Tab S2 Android 5.1.1 update is out! build T710XXU1BOH6

Android 5.1.1 is out for Tab S2.
Because Tab S2 forums aren't available, hence mentioning it here.
Hopefully, Tab S gets it too.
Tab S2 users can grab it here - http://samsung-updates.com/details/51450//SM-T710/BNN/T710XXU1BOH6.html

Do you think we will get it?

Hopefully it brings theme support for the S2... a man can dream.

I can confirm that it doesn't trip knox, and that it does install 5.1.1. Here's the tricky part. When the tablet boots it still says galaxy tabs s2, then flashes the samsung logo, then flashes the nook logo. I have all my previous apps now with the addition of several Nook apps.
It's almost as if it's a random hybrid.

Indeed, I think it's a special one it has country code BNN "unknown" ,
there is also another one available which has country code XAR (cellular south) http://samsung-updates.com/details/51460//SM-T710/XAR/T710XXU1BOH6.html

it's not a official update.

Has anyone looked into the XAR one above?
UPDATE: the XAR does not have the Nook integration. In ODIN mode the Current Binary is Samsung Official and System Status is also Official.

I believe cellular south is an American provider (not a service I have). I have the WIFI only version and so far everything seems to be running smoothly.

There is only 4 ways to obtain a official update, downloading a rom and manually installing them is not considered official, I'm sure Samsung won't give you any download link to official rom.

Those are official, you officially don't know what you are saying....

T-Mobile pushing out Marshmallow OTA for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge in Poland

Sent from my SM-G925F using Tapatalk

Yes, Sammobile and others confirmed, just waiting for the firmware to be released on Sammobile or any other site so I can flash it

Yay! Finally something to look forward to when I wake up tomorrow
Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk

Ok, sammobile reported that, but I'm not sure it's the truth. I searched around the web and I didn't find any user report of that update. I remember that last year xda and reddit were overfilled with hundreds of screenshots when lollipop was released for S5.
Anyway 21st February is near, I hope in a massive release and not in a slow and sectorial distribution.

They're gonna give it to us for valentines day cos they love us lol

As per i think sammobile also follow all reliable sources and then post an article on their site .

So why nobody confirms OTA update here and at any other android (polish) board?

Because mm has yet to be rolled out, don't know why we have any confusion at all.
Once someone on xda has confirmed that they have received a Ota than we can say mm has been rolled out in that location, don't trust any site or blog or whatever.

[SM-N920i] Note 5 6.01 Marshmallow Update

Some users have posted success flashing N920G India regions firmware onto the N920i. You can find the files posted on mega in this thread and then flash 4 files via odin. It's VERY early so proceed with caution and post any success or failures. There have been reports that the files from sammobile do not work correctly... Please read thread and use files from mega upload (link has changed several times, so I won't post here)
Update: I've successfully flashed the N920G firmware onto my N920i, no issues at all. I would say this is a safe option to upgrade to 6.01, no issues reported at this time.
Update 2: Received OTA update, still not issues to report
Update 3: Official MM firmware finally released, discussion starts on page 44.
Update 4: I'm staying on N920g firmware, several OTA's have already been released and have zero issues to report. You can flash back from N920g 6.01 to N920i 5.1.1, then receive the official OTA for that variant if you deem necessary.

You made me click the thread .... lol ...
Anyways its a safe bet that it may be released AFTER march 12 when Galaxy S7 line is officially released in Singapore (SEA) ...

Alright, you win, I click this thread as well. Lol

What a tease

n920i is turning out to be the worst version of this phone. no samsung pay, behind VERIZON!!! on the update... wtf.

Put things in perspective...
In the US, only a single carrier (VZW, oddly enough) has released MM on the Note5. The other 3 major carriers have not. I don't think it's been released at all in Canada. Outside North America, it's only been released in 3 regions (Iraq, Cambodia? and SK.)
This is extremely typical of Samsung. Take a look back to the January security updates: They announced that they were rolling it out to the note 5, but it only actually was released to a single phone in a single region (South Africa.) That Jan security update never made it to any other region or model.
From a marketing standpoint, Samsung is patting themselves on their backs for releasing MM on their flagship Note5 device, and being very silent on the fact that it's an EXTREMELY limited rollout.

Note 5 didn't receive any 6.0.1, those CAM and MID means nothing. galaxy s6 and s6 edge getting marshmallow in wide spread release, plus those versions of cam and mid are pure crap in my opinion.

So is the N920i the most popular model?

N920i accounts for 16.867% of note 5 sales...

N920i covers pretty much all of SE asia.. From Singapore to Australia. Fair chunk of the pie

Guys. Beside the rom update is late there is one positive end as well
We may not have to wait for deep sleep fix and custom roms as well.
As dr ketan and others have already fixed deep sleep issue and there are still some real good roms avaiable now for mm.
I wonder i may root the phone next day after MM ?

I use my phone to pay...here it's bank dependent. It's their banking app that enables nfc payments. Mines a N920I.

It's Samsung's fault and then it's the carriers (if you have a carrier variant) Google is not to blame, they have been forcing OEM to improve their update cycles hence Samsung had to pledge to release monthly security updates which themselves haven't been consistent.

Hi, can you provide me your turkey S6 Firmware CSC short code and what model are you using? SM-G920F or SM-G920FQ?
Because I will try with SamFirm application to download the firmware.

It is delayed in TUrkey, too. It seems because of UK rom has problems, besides it seems ota update will be available all over the world. CEO of Samsung TR said they are ready and waiting for permission of Samsung Global.
