They'll need unlocked handsets as they are bypassing carrier stuff.
[Galaxy S6 General] Garner:
It's for unlocked models only, just flash the latest btu firmware do your research first you will still be able to use it on your network etc it just removes all the bloatware

Is safe flash SM-G920F H3G Italy Brand with BTU?
[Galaxy S6 General] BRiANj64:
Okay it worked this time, Open the Galaxy Care app, scroll 3 times to the right until you see the Beta participation :)]

I don't know if that was possible before i re-flashed BTU, but I might've just been blind.

Galaxy Apps is still dutch though.
[Galaxy S6 General] Underworled:
It's necessary BTU rom or with XEU o'm goint to recieve the OTA ?

When I install the Care app, I don't get any prompt to join the beta :/

SuperSU 2.64 beta not supported
[Galaxy S6 General] svensonic1:
Does anyone have a link of the sammobile downloader?
[Galaxy S6 General] Pratz852:
Lol this is a beta version.

The official version took more than a month to get root.

You didn't seriously expect root already?![emoji23]

Sorry i using g925f
[Galaxy S6 General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
People whining and complaining should be grateful that Samsung is taking their time with this and trying to release a stable update. If Google took half as much time and care with their updates perhaps there wouldn't have been memory leaks, WiFi bugs, or mobile active radio drain bugs; some of which have still not been fixed! So be patient. You'll get your update soon enough and once you do I'm sure all the b*tching and complaining will start again with people asking how to downgrade, lol!
[Galaxy S6 General] AlexisXDA:
I updated firmware of touch with *#2663# and now the phone is so smooth and the touch is better.

I attached screenshots from the time when I went to bed till now when I woke up. As I said... straight line :)
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
The way a lot of you are going on about this is just dumb saying you will have to wait for the program to end before samsung iron out the creases. They would have been sitting waiting for the first bug response to hit there screens and immediately starting fixing it. How many people signed up to beta version thousands i guess and there certainly was not that many bugs on 6.0. Every bug would of been categorised like the last reported bug sent yesterday could be the same as the first reported bug a week ago so they are not going to sit on fence waiting for the last report. 2 weeks of 6.0 one week for 6.0.1 says it all really 6.0.1 is basically the finished article
[Galaxy S6 General] bigbamboo5:
I really hope not, for my battery's sake. :)
[Galaxy S6 General] superleeds27:
I've done the eaxact same thing, but can't get a flat line!
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Give or take a few bugs like battery. Sorry its just that ive had my kids jumping on the bed whilst i was trying to write that status lol. But your write im downgrading back to 5.1 today for my battery sake sick of charging 3 times a day its as bad as 4.3 on the galaxy s3 and also i miss my gear vr
[Galaxy S6 General] DT84:
I'm not saying devs waited until the ending of the beta to iron out bugs, but what I meant is that they've probably received reports until the very last date, so it was silly to expect a release on the same exact day of beta's ending.
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Sorry mate was not intended at you because you are basically going on about what i was going on about. Its for those who have been [emoji24] [emoji36]

Samsung have 4000+ employees just for software and i don't think they can't solve bugs for 2 to 3 days

One day its happen this week ? I think not .... I think rather to late January, the Forum says its SamMobile 1 or 2 week of February !
[Galaxy S6 General] bigbamboo5:
I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but it'll take a while to implement bug changes. We all want it sooner rather than later, but I'll be happy if it drops by the end of the month and is solid. We should probably all calm down a bit - speed isn't as important as efficiency.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
Haha, do it you will notice better battery life. And no bugs
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Got myself a gear vr Christmas time then spotted the beta program so obviously thought im having that only to find out after installing it wasn't going to work with marshmallow beta so thats why im dropping down also getting fed with charging 3 times a day its as bad as s3 on 4.3 jelly bean
[Galaxy S6 General] dherre65:
Interpunction my friend, interpunction...

Anyways, yes, the fact that the Gear VR didn't work with the Beta was announced on multiple websites, such as SamMobile: http://www.sammobile.com/2015/12/24...6-and-s6-edge-with-android-6-0-beta-firmware/. So you didn't have to discover that by yourself.
[Galaxy S6 General] coki.k:
I don't think it's a problem for a big company like Samsung to fix all bugs this week
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
That news was released 24 hours after igot my beta update also when i first received beta it killed my 3g/4g signal even after 2 full factory resets and numerous sim pulls it took half a day to reactivate the G signal was not pleased. I am always scanning for update news and never seen it prior to the release only after unfortunately never mind
[Galaxy S6 General] NicoTeix:
Android 6.0 came in early October 2015 , four months after we just finished the beta, and are back ?

I do not think Samsung is a great company by acting as !

---------- Post added at 01:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:48 PM ----------

Hi , you had a mobile data problem too?

For me, the official version with the programe , I is not mobile Internet network , I could just call and sms, with the second version 6.0.1 I had this problem too!

And yesterday I flash a rom based on the beta still the same problem !
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Yes my fix was to insert a different network sim card waited until i seen the H+ symbol then replaced it with my original sim and it worked. My phone is unlocked by the way and stock

---------- Post added at 01:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 PM ----------

Let me know if the way i have described works please so i can pass on the message if anyone is still suffering from this issue

It took 6 months to fix bugs in lollipop
[Galaxy S6 General] NicoTeix:
It's reassuring to see that I was not alone with this problem!

unfortunately for me I is not the other sim card ....

hoho , I have just found one at time !
[Galaxy S6 General] AlexisXDA:
People that have problems

Wipe data and factory reset and you will see the difference

For me all is working beautifully.

[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Did you restart the phone afterwards and also have done the clear cache and factory reset thats what i done prior to inserting different sim card,wipe your sim anything you can think of but if it still dont work I think you should forget about marshmallow for now and install smart switch on your computer and downgrade back to 5.1 it will probably be the only way you will fix your situation. i was about to do it earlier but have been a little busy since but im definitely downgrading tonight.
[Galaxy S6 General] NicoTeix:
I will tested tonight! I just found another sim card !!

When you had put another sim card like you did what manipulation?
[Galaxy S6 General] simm101:
Everything i could think of even a battery pull hold down volume and power for 20 seconds until device turns off. Good luck anyway I must do some work[emoji106]
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
Could be hardware.

I had this problem few days after bought note 4.

4G start missing, try your sim card in another 4G phone to see the difference.

i don't have any problems with 4g. it also switches automatically to h+ if its needed...

[Galaxy S6 General] mohitgalaxy3:
Due to awful battery life i reverted to lollipop.

Can anyone please help me one thing...i am trying to get back to XME but no matter what I do XXV CSC get selected by default. I tried factory reset from rom..recovery but nothing worked. Anyone got any solution for this without rooting.
[Galaxy S6 General] luismedina:
Use Samsung SmartSwitch, go to the Tools menu and click on Emergency firmware recovery, type your device model and then the Serial Number, this will restore your device to the factory firmware, after that you should flash the firmware that you want with ODIN, make sure to wipe device/factory reset before and after you flash the firmware with ODIN, this worked for me.
[Galaxy S6 General] mohitgalaxy3:
I don't see any such option under emergency Software recovery, If I click on Device initialization it says SM-G920F not supported please contact customer care.

There is one more option Emergency recovery using recovery code but I don't know what to enter there.
[Galaxy S6 General] luismedina:
And what happens when you type the model and serial number WITHOUT connecting the phone first?
[Galaxy S6 General] NicoTeix:
I found another chip activated , I flash the instalée btu for beta testing and I all with another chip !

http://www.mobipicker.com/galaxy-s6-s6-edge-s6-edge-s5-note5-note-4-android-marshmallow-update/

They wrote Feb/March for the S6, but I'm pretty sure that it's sometime in February as it's impossible to not roll it out when the beta is working very good, and my guess it that it shouldn't take 2 months to fix the minor bugs there is.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
This is old, was posted on gsm arena ages ago, I do think that MM will be released as an official update in February rather March though

P.s will be 6.0.1 rather than 6.0, so don't take the image as gospel
[Galaxy S6 General] Riardon:
I'm pretty sure it's fake. First of all it's Android 6.0.1 and not 6.0 and second the same graph was "leaked" ages ago. I don't believe it a second.
[Galaxy S6 General] Makkos26:
It writes G920I!

The beta was for the G920F and the old roadmaps were for the G920F as well. Maybe they will not get it together.
[Galaxy S6 General] ssking:
I get really bad baterry drain in the last days..

Only 45 SOT
[Galaxy S6 General] t-shock:
Me too.

I downgraded to Lollipop and everything was back to normal
[Galaxy S6 General] superleeds27:
Facebook is your problem there!
[Galaxy S6 General] ssking:
I don't think that Facebook is the problem. The app consumed 200mah (15% from the total consumption) ..

Anyway, right now Android OS is on the top of the list.
[Galaxy S6 General] thegtfusion:
latest fb app has a wakelock problem. you can try to greenify it, but it keeps restarting itself. I suffered from this, so i uninstalled fb app and i'm using Folio for facebook now. way better!!
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
In lollipop Facebook stays closed.

I return to normal battery,

I notice something, people that use package disabler don't optimise it, because it don't work 100%.

I hope stabilise battery in M like lollipop .

This is normal usage everyday.

Always 4G on.

Facebook messenger calls some emails.

No problem with Google services and android OS.
[Galaxy S6 General] bigbamboo5:
I'm also using Folio and am very happy with it - especially the extended battery life. :good: (Apologies if I've wandered off topic.)
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Very good battery

Yesterday i did 4.30 sot with the note 5 rom from arter :)
[Galaxy S6 General] H3adru5H:
I get that with my Galaxy s6. Actually more. Always get between 4.5-5.5 hours SoT.

Safe to say the battery life for this beta is worse. Has anyone tried debloating?
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
That's good too but in wifi.

In 4G you don't do that. ,?
[Galaxy S6 General] Fullmetal Jun:
If only Samsung could hire proven software engineers(such as guys from htc) and fire their actual software designers!!
[Galaxy S6 General] H3adru5H:
It comes close. I'm on LTE 14 hours of the day.
[Galaxy S6 General] cnutt1:
Lol lg are pushing marshmallow to the g3 ,I know things take time but their making Samsung look crap
[Galaxy S6 General] H3adru5H:
I'm actually gonna stay on LTE all day to see how much better or worse it does. This where I am so far. I'm at an orientation so I may not have such a long cycle life since I'm on the phone a lot lol.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
Not bad , but you are rooted right. ?
[Galaxy S6 General] H3adru5H:
Ya. I'm running Xtrestolite 5.1.1 with stock ROM kernel. No kernel tweaks, 50-100% screen brightness at all times.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
Ohh thats good rom but im stock.

No ROOT . only package disabler. And nova launcher.

During the day always 40% brightness.

I work in construction area but inside.
[Galaxy S6 General] DO97:
Now that the beta period is over, what are the improvements that you have noticed and your opinions?

The speed of the opening of the apps it is better? Notification bar and edge panel are more fluid and fast? And the little lags when you open for the first time the sidebar in various applications or the dial in phone app are disappeared?
[Galaxy S6 General] H3adru5H:
Figured I'd update ya on the battery situation before I plug back in lol usage was general Facebook shenanigans, Facebook messenger, text messaging, Chrome, Instagram, a little Pocket Mortys, gmail, a little YouTube, like 5 minutes worth of tethering. Forgetting a few other things but they were insignificant. All on LTE. Not bad eh?
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
That's very good for lte.

I didn't root my s6 because i want to change it.

i know with M official will not be much better than the lollipop.

I was amazed with new A series 2016, i think there in no thread yet because the phones are coming to the stores.

But i was trying one A5 , and is a S6 with 5.2inch and 2900 battery.

Seems ok.
[Galaxy S6 General] loris100:
if you want to change take something better then an s6...dont downgrade to an a5...pick the new s7 which will release next month.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
I know that im on the news.

We always want more and better.

S7 will came with a better battery and sd card.

Let's wait.
[Galaxy S6 General] iNeoTom:
I followed this guide and got one the beta program just never got round to saying thanks you so thank you lol
[Galaxy S6 General] dejong12:
If I go back to Lollipop, will I still get the update to 6.0.1 or has it been pulled back? I was in the beta.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
I went back and i don't have the update anymore, but i think its because i leave beta program , if you are in beta program i think you will have M again.

I already went back once and receive it.
[Galaxy S6 General] dejong12:
I didn't leave the beta and I went back once too and I got the update, but that was before they stopped the beta program. I want to be sure if I can return to the beta firmware.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
If you want to keep it, and have problems, try once again hard reset and wait to the official.

But i don't regret to stay on lollipop for now its very stable.
[Galaxy S6 General] dejong12:
Well I've rooted my device and say if tomorrow my device acts up and I need to restore it, then I would like to go back to MM after reinstalling LP.

I can only find a few 5GHz wifi networks. Does anyone else has this problem?
[Galaxy S6 General] Skhulile:
I was about to ask about this until I got the answer myself. If you downgrade to Lollipop even if you are registered you won't get the MM update, it happened to me:( I had to send my S6 edge in for repairs as the Recents Key was not working anymore, so because I didn't want them to claim that I caused the damage by installing the MM beta I decided to downgrade it, now they fixed it and i got it back, I immediately flashed the 5.1.1 BTU firmware and changed the CSC to BTU but unluckily no MM update available anymore. I guess I'll wait for the Official one
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Ehi Bro! There is in development section some roms that you can install!

Now i'm running the beta but the beta finished 4 days ago.

I'm running a Rom.

If you install a rom do a Backup if you want come back to Lollipop.

[Galaxy S6 General] ¿Will-it-Blend?:
Is there any proof for this BS? S-series phones are usually released in April. And if samsung didn't care, why would they even take the time to release a beta to gather user feedback? I mean seriously, just be patient. It will get here when it gets here. But if you want fast, buggy updates, then yes a nexus is your best choice.
[Galaxy S6 General] xavier2k3:
Instagram again force closing all the damn time, sooo frustrating! Didn't do this at first!
[Galaxy S6 General] Riardon:
And then you will be happy to discover how many bugs the Nexus has. Also 5X lags a lot for a Nexus device. Unfortunately that's Android. Want fast updates with many bugs and very few features get a Nexus. Want more features and less bugs get a non Nexus phone. This is how it works. There is no "perfect" Android experience just the right for each of us.
[Galaxy S6 General] smoki3:
I am a developer. so the s6 was my first samsung phone. i give it a chance but without a good software the best hardware is nothing. i have a one plus one here which has a lot of older hardware. in normal use its simple faster. so i get back to nexus and qualcomm.
[Galaxy S6 General] loris100:
buy an s7 with s820 instead...so you will get cyanogenmode down the road on a good hardware...nexus 5x is a joke:p

I'm running a Rom.

Today at 15 my S6 was 100% on charge so I unplegged it and i went to cinema. I noticed that i lost 10% in 15 minutes.

Android system was on 58% O_O.

I saw Steve Jobs and put my phone in airplane mode and in ultra power saving mode, after two hours from 75 I saw my phone on 50%. (good film :D)

Usage from 15.00 to 22.30 .

I arrived at home with 8% at 23.00 and i flashed the stock recovery and fiuu! My phone after 15 minuts of SOT lost only 1%.

Saturday afternoon i was worry to arrived at home with my phone without juice.

Keep running Marshmallow.

Very fluid and multitasking very good.

If only Samsung optimize the S6 as they did with Note 5 battery will improved a lot.

Update tomorrow Guys. :)
[Galaxy S6 General] superleeds27:

And i was pretty scared and nervous.
