I just got an OTA update for my Galaxy S5 Active about an hour ago, and I'm currently up date (6.0.1, as of Mar 10th), and as far as I know Galaxy S5 Active was confirmed to not receive the Nougat update, did anyone else get this and/or know what this update is?
security update i believe

Good news for us UK users...
I used to be able to update my rooted devices via Kies with the guaranteed 'official' Samsung ROM... ('cos OTAs don't work on rooted phones)
Kies says S2 Tab isn't supported, and to use 'Smart Switch' instead. Does Smart Switch upgrade firmware??
TIA
Anyone else have the 5.1.1 update on the s2 8.0. I'm still stuck on 5.0.2

Is there any way to install 5.1.1 on a S2 bought at France?
Yes, you can simply flash one of the available 5.1.1 versions from other regions.
Will work just fine, and you'll notice no difference.

Yesterday at night I did it. I've used the Canada version but this one it doesn't have the "Mange Apps" in the Smart Manager to Auto-Stop the apps. I wanted that but can't know for sure in which one it's enabled.
Does manually upgrading with ODIN mess up KNOX and the tablet's warranty status? I'm on 5.0.2 as well.

No, official firmware does not trip knox.
Unfortunately for the T815Y there is only 5.0.2, no 5.1.1 released yet...

I've downloaded the Canada 5.1.1 version and keep getting a Status Bar Notification:-
Security Notice
Unauthorised actions have been detected. Tap here for more info.
Is there a way to disable these notifications?

I haven't had any problems with mine. I have some Samsung apps disabled but I don't think that's the fix. Are you sure yours is T710 and not some other variant? Did your KNOX counter get tripped?

Mine's the T810 which was originally running on UK version 5.0.2. I rooted it, flashed a TWRP recovery and flashed the Canadian 5.1.1 version. KNOX was tripped when rooted.
Oh right. I did a Google search about your problem earlier and found out you have two disable a service or two if the same thing happens on the Samsung S6 Edge . Read the ROOT YOUR PHONE AND UNINSTALL KNOX part.
Any word when the OTA update to Android 5.1.1 is coming for the Galaxy Tab S2 in the UK?
It's out for other countries. I'd rather not have to doing anything unofficial if I can help it, especially when it's been out in other countries for some time now.
Thanks

It's not actually unofficial is it? Its still stock firmware.
What are you expecting to be different?

As I understand it the Android 5.1.1 update from Samsung isn't available in The UK but looks like it is elsewhere. My Tab S2 is still stuck on Android 5.0.2.
I'm waiting for Samsung to release it OTA than installing firmware intended/released for a different market.
Thanks.
The firmware is identical aside from a few apps here and there.
Only the csc is different which doesn't have to be flashed.

Android 5.1.x brought with it bugs fixed too though?
It's 49MB, Nov. 1 security update, Nov. 5 kernel build.
Thanks for the heads up, Gary. Keep em coming.
Is there a firmware install? Don't really want to install Sept FW then Ota
I hope it fixes the bugs from the last update. I had to hard reset yesterday thanks to that mess.
Installed. Not seeing anything added or removed, just the change in kernel and security patch date.
No info found
THERE IS NOTHING ON THE ATT WEBSITE ABOUT THIS ONE YET
That last hot mess OTA that dropped a few days ago made my phone laggy as hell hope this new update fixes that

If not go to best buy, they should be able to update it for you, if there's no other way.

I'm on cricket also. Only way your gonna get at&t ota is if you use a SIM card from at&t. Didn't have to be active just on there network.
Hello again, someone who can upload this update please, looking at Google the last firmware (PJ4) i only find it in pay forums, a Chinese page and another that looks German, when I look for a new update only tells me that I have the current (PI2), I am from different country, so, to me updating via OTA is not possible, If someone could upload it would be much appreciated. :laugh:

Wow. It took over a month for the October Security patch and mere 10 days later for the November patch. Almost makes you wonder why they even bothered with the October patch.
about to go back to the ATT firmware later on today. Question: Since there is no Zip for the November update. If I do OTA from the September patch should I do a factory reset after November update. Ive always been wondering that.
After going back to 935a Sept patch. Try to update a of course. "Current software is up to date" ****ing hate AT&T! ???*
No PK4 zip yet. ????
I know this is just packaged as an Android Security update, but I'm having crazy good battery life since the update. Maybe just coincidence, but I'll take it.

Question for you. Are you running t-mobile U firmware? If so do you prefer it over AT&T?

I purchased an unlocked S6 fit my father in law to use on Straight Talk. It's got 5.1.1 on it currently. What's my best course of action to get Marshmallow? Try to get the official AT&T carrier update? Or root and flash something else? I don't have experience with MNVOs. Thanks in advance.

You'll have to check some of these threads to see if 5.1.1 can be rooted. I forgot when it got locked to the point we can no longer root.
I am on Straight Talk and added FOTA to the list in the APN type setting and get my OTA updates. The most recent was a kernel dated Nov 2.

Since it is unlocked, U1, the update came from Samsung. not att. It was a minor security patch that brought security up to the December patch.

First thing Android pie update will takes months to get it.
They seem to do Russia first to test so be patient it going to take a while to get it.
Samsung is going to be slow on this one.
Just to clarify, does A8+ have a Dec-Jan security patch update? Because i badly need that. I've been hitting the check update option on settings and it says I'm on the latest which is November.
