New update android lollipop 5.1.1

Hi,
I have searched everywhere but I have never seen a real answer to this question: is the 5.1.1 update bring the touchwiz update? What does it bring exactly?
^A little bit less lag when using the recent apps button. Otherwise: Nothing but numbers.
So it doesn't bring the tw update...

When Samsung update the freakin' Note 4 to 5.1.1 we may end up getting the new TouchWix UX or whatever it's called, but in all honesty I don't think that's going to happen (just my opinion)- we'll probably get the new TouchWiz with Android M.

The American variants have 5.1.1 and don't have the new tw and theme engine.
When we do get 5.1.1 it will make it a lot easier to port s6 and n5 features though so you will see lots of custom roms with the new launcher

Got to be honest I agree. Apart from the cm roms for the 910f development has just about stopped. I've tried miui on my old n2 but never tried porting it.
Hopefully now we have the n5 system development should start to pick up

Another question does anyone have experience with LG? How long does their phones take to get the new updates for example the G3 their previous flagship

My last phone was an LG, but was also an ATT phone. Updates took around 1-2 months to receive after other variants of my phone got their updates. But LG released their updates at about the same speed at Samsung IMO. However, I think they at least kept people up to date with ETAs.

Marshmallow Waiting Room

Since we need thread about latest development of Marshmallow update for S6 and S6 Edge, and last one got closed... please keep this one by the rules.
By checking 20min ago with SamFirm for DTM CSC i got info that 6.0.1 is up, but when i clicked to download it turned back to...
"Checking firmware for SM-G920F/DTM/G920FXXU3DPAD/G920FDDX3DPAF/G920FXXU3DPAJ
Error: Could not send BinaryInform. Status code 200/400
Request was invalid. Are you sure the input data is correct?"
and 5.1.1 again. Looks like they are getting it ready.
.
Hope this thread could be kept clean.. Also the other user claims that he checked the samfirm for PHN and got this for s6 edge;

Germany has been a lot of time the first European country to get Samsung updates, so that could be the case again.

This one is simply to tell people when MM drops, nothing else. The thread you've linked to is a general Marshmallow thread in which people discuss everything under the sun. Why should you worry if there are two distinct threads?

Directly replying to your concerns, there's a thread already opened specifically for MM release. http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/official-marshmallow-released-t3315637

I didn't know that the G900H is so ignored by Samsung. Thanks for your clarification though but I think Marshmallow has doze still. And I've tried the CM13 rom that's not finished and it's super smooth. I wish I could get the same feeling with Touchwiz though.
wrong section !! samsung not doing any rom because he know all people like change phone all years

S7 port rom?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has made an S7 port rom or a note 5 port running 6.0.1? All the roms I've seen for the note 4 (N910F) have been stock roms running 6.0.1 and don't have things like the theme store.

Heyy check out this link this is S7 port MM 6.0.1, works for the following N910T, N910T3 and N910W8..... really smooth and fast.
Try flashing your N910F i remmeber i was using a few different roms earlier and the N910T is always compatible to work with N910F.

You can install MaxOvrDrive S7Edge port rom and you have to flash a compatible kernel after. Maybe you will need a data fix also.

Then didn't move past the Samsung logo so went back into recovery wiped delik cache phone booted. On screen it said in spanish "android is starting" though this was a completely green material design type screen, finally finished loading the apps or whatever it does then went back to the Samsung logo just vibrated every so often didn't do anything. I pulled battery and rebooted now it's just sitting at Samsung logo again I'm gonna wait another 15 mins to see if it does anything if not I'll wipe everything again and reinstall rom. Sucks though it's getting late here in the UK lol currently 12:15 at night.

mya rom work with coj3 bl and cp.you dont update binary from twrp.maybee you have 2-3 reboot before open

Right so I finally got that rom to install and love it turned out I was using the wrong bootloader etc needed to use COJ3. Rom is fantastic has near enough every S7 feature including the new edge features, always on display semi works tho is a little dim and when u go to unlock the phone the brightness dims down and won't return until you lock the phone. Fingerprint scanner when I tried to set it up gave some error said to restart haven't tried restarting yet.
Only downside though is xposed doesn't seem to want to install. I'm using the latest custom alt version of xposed but just gets stuck on the flashing Samsung logo so that sucks. Has anyone got a way to get xposed to install on a custom touchwhiz rom running 6.0.1?
Kurama rom is likely an s7 port. Version 2 will be released tomorrow if i'm not wrong.

Nope Kuruma Rom is Note 4 stock 6.0.1 Marshmallow
Rom works without data fix?
Inviato dal mio SM-G935F utilizzando Tapatalk
Yeah I tried the Kuruma Rom to find it's just stock note 4. Only problems with this Myarom S7 port is the fingerprint scanner doesn't work and no option in keyboard settings to enable the auto switching between handwriting mode when I pull the S-pen out so no way at all to get to handwriting mode. Otherwise I'm loving the rom google now on tap works great, android pay even works which I tried on a note 5 port rom on 5.1.1 and it said it couldn't verify my device even tried rootcloak etc this Myarom android pay is all set up just fine didn't even install any root cloaking apps or disable root plus I have xposed installed as well.
Ahh isn't maximum ovrdrive s7 port

I'm running Echoe S7Edge port vs. 3 and my experience differs. System speed and battery life is the best I've seen on this phone.....pulled 6hrs screen-on with heavy internet usage, auto brightness on stock battery apposed to the average 4.5hr screen-on I've seen for the life of this device.
Fingerprint and wireless tether not working as well as volte and wireless calling. Bluetooth tether and USB tether do work. For my usage i do fine without those few functions and do not regret the choice one bit....I'll probably never run stock 6.0.1 for the N910T because I'll be losing some of the edge functionality that suits my usage more than the issues pointed out above.
Also stock dpi of note 4 is 640
Dpi of all the S7edge ports is 640......
When stock 6.0.1 drops for the N4 it'll be 640 dpi.....

I'd thoroughly appreciate if someone could upload the update.zip so I can check the bootloader and work on an update mechanism.

I want to make sure we can still unlock the phone. We should be able to get a complete CM13 now if the bootloader can still obtain perm unlock and we have perm root.
I haven't seen any new phone released since our Note 4s that delivers every feature I want plus more, so I'm planning on sticking with our note 4s for some time to come.
