Samsung has a piece of software called Kies that can be used to upgrade your ROM.

Got your solution, i am also having the same problem, and i use At&t , please can you help if you got your solution.

Follow step 1 of OP ( downloading and flashing build PA2 with Odin) that should give fairly recent build of lollipop.

[Q] Need a Rom to Flash My G870A Rooted Galaxy s5 Active to New Lollipop Version

Hello Fellow XDAERS,
I have an AT&T rooted galaxy s5 active, and I want to be able to upgrade to the new Lollipop version that was actually just rolled out yesterday, but as we know we can't upgrade to lollipop with a rooted phone, the only way to do it I've heard is by flashing a ROM or something like that, I'm sorry I'm kind of a beginner on this kind of stuff because I just switched over to android from iPhone last year (thank god, haha), but if somebody can help me through this process it would be greatly appreciated.
Please and THANK YOU.

So is the G900A_ND3_Stock_Kernel "G900A" safe for my specific device?
You have a G900A?

I'm chiming in here because I have been on a rooted version of 5.02 for over a year. I want to update from 5.02 to 6.0 to 7.0 if possible before I sell my phone on e-bay.
Current baseband is G920AUCU2AOF4
IS there a thread with the files need and a path to follow to get there?
Thanks to anyone who can help!
Add one more to this list.....
I rooted my S6 when I first got it 2 years ago and haven't messed with it since. Still running CleanRom 1.1-OE2 5.0.2 baseband AOE2 ......
I also have another S6 thru work. It's all stock. Recently updated to 7.0 and got the itch to update my personal S6 to a more modern version of Android but dont want to loose root.
Is it possible?
Any guide?
Remember it's been a while (almost 2yrs) since I've hacked on a phone so I'm a newb again lol!

Help Downgrade G920A Nougat 7.0 (G920AUCU6EQCF)

Friends, colleagues and colleagues.
I hope you can help me in the next problem. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 Flat G920A from AT & T. I updated it via ADB to Nougat 7.0, but the truth is that it gives me little performance in screen usage, it would be as long as 3 hours, so I want to downgrade it, I remember when I updated Nougat I had to find the official AT & T ROM Stock that Was compatible to be able to update ie download the ROM that mentioned my previous BASEBAND followed by TO and then named the new BASEBAND.
It was something like that.
ANCIENT BASEBAND? TO G920AUCU6EQCF.
Now my question is the following as I can know which file I should flasehar on my G920A to return to MARSHMALLOW ask because I do not want to cause a softbrick or hardbrick to my device.
