Does 5.1 add theme support?
What did the 5.1.1 actually improve?

What variant you have? Marshmallow is available only for N920C..As you are already rooted, flashing marshmallow will have deep sleep issue...many guys who have rooted and flashed marshmallow have reverted to Lollipop as there is no root method get for Marshmallow....

I have the SM-N920I. So I should wait until the official marshmallow releases for that version.

Downgradeable? - T-Mobile Note 4 (SM-N910T)

I am about to buy a New T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910T), and just need to make sure that it would be possible to downgrade the Note 4 from whatever Android version is installed on it to Android 4.4.4 (KitKat).
I checked SamMobile and currently the known Android versions on the Note 4 (SM-N910T) are listed below along with their respective baseband numbers.
My question is this: can all of the basebands (Android versions) listed below for the SM-N910T be downgraded to Android 4.4.4 (Baseband: N910TUVU1ANK4 or N910TUVU1ANJ7 or N910TUVU1ANIH)?
SM-N910T - Baseband number/Android version List:
Date (Baseband) Android Version
2015-11-30 (N910TUVU2DOK2) 5.1.1
2015-11-30 (N910TUVU1COG2) 5.0.1
2015-08-10 (N910TUVU1COD6) 5.0.1
2014-11-24 (N910TUVU1ANK4) 4.4.4
2014-10-17 (N910TUVU1ANJ7) 4.4.4
2014-10-11 (N910TUVU1ANIH) 4.4.4
I definitely need to know this before I buy since I'll be making the purchase online, and won't be able to know which Android version/Baseband version is being shipped in the new package.
Would anyone please help with this question?
No sir. Once on dok2 5.1.1 your locked in. I made that mistake. As long as it's before the latest 5.1.1 your good

I want to go back to 6.0.1 but I coudn't

hi I extremely hate stock nougat Ive installed latest 7.0 from sammobile and when I try to install 6.0.1 the samsung rev sw protection show up and the odin says fail BTW at the past I was able to install both android versions 6.0.1 and 7.0 with no problems ...would it work if I use another country rom my country code is MID
so sorry for bad english:angel:
After a few Nougat updates you won't be able to Downgrade. Why would you go want to go back? Nougat is just better than Marshmallow! with more and easier mods available.

What Android Version is best for the S6 Active?

Curious what people think is the best Android version for the S6 Active. I have 5.1.1 and wondering if I should downgrade, upgrade or leave it...
@raframos, the best OS for your S6 Active, is the Android Nougat 7.0. The reason is because it comes with the latest security updates, and also apps are more compatible with it. Android 5.1.1 is outdated. I advice you should NOT (in capital letters) downgrade the OS because it can mess up with your IMEI and Serial No (It happened to me and I will repair it this week). So, I suggest that you should first upgrade to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, and try it out for some weeks. If you are satisfied with it,you can upgrade but if not, stay there.
