Is the line long
[Galaxy S6 General] :
I don't really care when we will get it I just want it to be stable, even if we will have to wait till June. I just want polished, stable OS.

I think I'll stay on Samsung anyway as I read that Nexus has shut down problems, google pixel same thing, LG bootloops problem. HTC is overpriced for my taste, Samsung only had exploding problem with Note 7 and that's all.
[Galaxy S6 General] cjh454:
I sure hope exploding never becomes the least of my problems.
[Galaxy S6 General] Edge330:
Yes, explosion was big problem, 50 phones of few millions.

Nougat test for S7 is officially over.

If they don't give S6x users the new UI

... they should at least keep updating the good lock app, it seems they put it on hold.... the last update was in October and still in beta for USA users only. Make it official and available to more countries.
[Galaxy S6 General] KornyeiDavid:
The Lineage OS (cyanogenmod) is working on the stable 7.1.1 android rom for s2-s3-s5-s7 instead of s6.

i would like to know why the developers aren't working on a stable and official rom for s6 ? Anybody know why our phone is out of these lists?
[Galaxy S6 General] Ryan-sv:
Maybe because the Exinos procesor?
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
The others are exynos too, but saying that some of them have qualcomm variants like the s5 and s4, s3 is only exynos.
[Galaxy S6 General] javitolopez69:
Happy new year and android s7 beta is closed.

Nougat 7.1 is out for user samsung .Patience
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
they have to give s6 the grace ux and thats because alot of people including me will never by a samsung phone anymore i get support for 1 year ? sorry but thats not going to work on me anymore i wil by a OP4 if its out and be happy with the snapdragon 830 or 835 so i can flash aosp roms and the lovly RR rom i'm not giving my money to samsung any more for that poor **** they give is for a year atleast bring every damn feature to the older flagship like apple does but no samsung doesnt do that so no samsung for me :D
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
You're not the only one!

Honestly if they take much longer I'm out anyway. Been through this game too many times with Samsung already. After paying close to a grand on a phone, I expect more
[Galaxy S6 General] ponchofiesta:
All these builds are for the Snapdragon SoC versions of those phones. Samsung does not provide needed things for their Exynos SoC. So for these models there is no open source Android build. The Galaxy S6 is only available with such an Exynos SoC.
[Galaxy S6 General] mosespl:
Because of exynos procesor and it source code which isn't open source

I'm on the same boat. I'm tired of Samsung and it's messy update policy. I will not be buying a new phone every year.
[Galaxy S6 General] serdel_elo:
You know what guys? F*** Samsung. I'm buying Nexus 6P. It has a good price now and will get Android 8 for sure.
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:

[Galaxy S6 General] betrayed666:
what does it matter if a phone receives an update? you can still make calls and write sms on marshmallow right?

is the difference of 400 euro for a new phone that sends the same sms worth it?

Same

With this kind of attitude, it's no wonder companies release phones then abandon them. Holding them accountable changes their actions. Lack of support drives me away to other companies, and if more people did the same we wouldn't be in this mess.
[Galaxy S6 General] timeshiftt:
Even though I respect your opinion, I must say that I find it pretty shi**y, like VERY shi**y.

You can safely buy a $30 dumbphone from 2005 and be happy with it, you don't need updates, on the other hand, smartphones need updates because the following things are a reality:

1. New features

2. Security/battery/performance patches and fixes

3. Overall enhancements

4. And so on.

So yes, we do need updates and I don't want to spend lots of money every year to buy a new phone instead of just receiving an update that my current phone surely is able to receive. I don't know about you, but I earn my money with hard work and I like to care about it.
[Galaxy S6 General] cokey77:
Jan security update rolling out to Nexus devices and no mention of updates for the s6. Why did we all of a sudden stop getting security updates is it because we will be getting nougat? We should still be getting these patches other wise what's the point in them if there not important.
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
if samsung is so stupid to release 1 bilion phones a year they cant handel that -_- and they are planning to release a X series seriously somebody has to say stop to this stupity of samsung releasing that much phones and ofcourse the update policy of samsung the worse a company can get -_- if you remamber we are using s6 so they have nothing to offer anymore you how it goes with samsung 1 year support and thats it poor company

---------- Post added at 11:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 AM ----------

we are not getting things like that in the nougat update haha no grace ux no new features nothing only thing we get is nougat update with the interface of MM nothing more and we already give damn much money to samsung to get this ? sorry but this is bull**** no more samsung just buy a phone with snapdragon and be happpy so welcome aosp roms

[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
the best way to customize your phone is with a snapdragon and flash aosp roms love it and not the samsung phones with exynos only what you can do with it is custom stock rom -.- and yes i go that route to maybe a nokia p1 with snapdragon 835 or OP4 snapdragon 835
[Galaxy S6 General] serdel_elo:
I don't need ultra performence. And when support for 6P will end i will have Lineage to the end of the world. And that smooth and beautiful Android. Love it :)
[Galaxy S6 General] Edge330:
I really dont care to much about nougat, it's nice thing to have it soon as possible, but I'm enjoying with debloated MM thanks to xda community. Battery is enough good, great camera, design, speaker, unbeatable display, size of phone is perfect. S6 is still nice package, probably best I ever had, even without N!

I care more about a company actually supporting their products than the actual update itself. I'm one of those people that gets bothered by the sheer principle of things in many ways. Though I do really want the update
[Galaxy S6 General] cokey77:
Not bothered about nougat update just the fact security patches have been left out for all this time when they said we would get them. Yes nougat might patch them but how long have we had to wait and to be honest I will put off updating until all the bugs have been discovered so I can decide if it's worth it.
[Galaxy S6 General] le_lutin:
What, specifically, is it that you think you will be able to do with nougat that you can't currently with marshmallow?
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
I don't think you read anything that I wrote actually... Your response has zero to do with what I said.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
The problem with Samsung especially more so when the s6 came out they released too many flagship grade devices, you had the note5, s6, s6 edge, s6 edge plus, plus they were still dealing with major updates for the note4( mm update, bear in mind this device shipped with 4.4.4). I think they'll learn a thing or 2 because of the whole note7 debacle. Tbh I'm pretty happy with my s6( had it since September 2016), I can wait for nougat whenever they decide to release it, time being I'm still getting 24 hours use. I know people will have varying thoughts and as a consumer you have that right. Question is though you can pick up a 2nd hand s6 in the UK for 250 pounds or there abouts, you'll be getting non modded nougat for that money, it's not like the s6 has stable cm support or anything, probably will never have that. Buying a newer samsung be expected to never have that sort of that stable cm dev
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
thats the point to leave samsung it enough midrange phone have latest features en last year flagship get nothing ? really F**** samsung :) never samsung for me! :D

and i think of buying a nokia P1 high end smartphone or the Oneplus 4 atleast 2 snapdragon 835 phones so we can put aosp roms on it :)
[Galaxy S6 General] le_lutin:
So you want them to spend a huge amount of time and money giving you an update that has very little discernible benefit in order to prove to you that the they still care about the S6.

Is that it?
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
There's no proof anywhere saying for sure that the s6 won't get aod, this whole thread is based on conjecture, I'm actually more confident of s6 getting aod as these 2017 midrange phones have less battery capacity, again this is just conjecture. I'm just put back by how many people have blasted samsung for something that hasn't happened yet. In this day and age getting a samsung phone without a sd variant you're gonna be restricted in terms of development, it must be just me who researches a phone before buying one.
[Galaxy S6 General] imparator:
Still waiting for Samsung to announce S6 is not powerfull enough to run Android 7
[Galaxy S6 General] halloo13:
The Galaxy S6 was found on a benchmark running 7.0 and shortly after S7 will get Nougat (S7 will get it next week; source : sammobile.com) the Galaxy S6 will get it. Sammi is working on the update for months now and there have to be a lots of new Feauters in the Update - Sammobile is saying that Nougat has been Samsung's biggest Update yet
[Galaxy S6 General] javitolopez69:
Waiting for best of Samsung update
[Galaxy S6 General] Windforce0511:
Yeah, biggest one for S7.
[Galaxy S6 General] jackherer72:
that's bull**** what you say. s6 is strong enough for nougat 7.1
[Galaxy S6 General] XxM4tzexX:
This is not bull... Because when Samsung sais it is not powerful enough it is just an excuse for not wanting to update it. But in this case it's very unlikely because it is not even 2 years old.
[Galaxy S6 General] jackherer72:
If he does not have enough power then comes nougat not on s6 .but it is so powerfull so its comes!!
[Galaxy S6 General] XxM4tzexX:
Now you are talking bull...

The power of a phone is irrelevant. It's just a marketing thing to update or not to update a phone. If it were because of power, every Android phone from last 5 years would run nougat. But obviously they doesn't
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
Lol you'll be waiting a long time, just don't hold your breathe.
[Galaxy S6 General] halloo13:
Personally I always thought that the Galaxy S6 line is a very special line from Samsung. I mean after S5's plastic design they introduced a totally modern and beuatiful phone. The Hardware can run 7.0/ 7.1.1 .. I hope they will change their "Update polity" with this phone. They can't do the same thing like they did to the Galaxy S3. The phone was powerful enough to run 4.4 but they didn't update it. They can't tell us the Galaxy S6 can't run 7.0.. they can't
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
if people are smart enough just buy another phone why would you give your money to a company like this we pay 600/700 euro and we get 1 year update and support after that its done no update nothing what do think of a company that gives midrange devices the latest featurres and the flagship s6 nothing higher specs can easy handle the new features like AOD and grace ux etc... just tell me what the logic of this stupid company is they give the a series everything and the flagship like s6 nothing ? and nobody can tell me because of its a new device yes its new but mid specs so f*ck logic still the s6 is more expensive and higher specs than the a series this is what you call money hunting

i just hope that some of the xda developers can make the lineage rom running 100% it would be perfect because samsung is gonna be very late with the update as normal and with no new features
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
You really can't bring ios/apple into this when it comes to updates to their devices compared to Android and it's respective manufacturers. Android is completely fragmented, many os versions from many manufacturers, versus one manufacturer and less devices, when you have less devices it allows you time to develop software updates and Tbh, and I know I'm not a developer but I reckon there's less involved in carrying out updates for ios updates just because how apple devices are coded and the hardware used. This is why phones like iPhone 5 still get updates with slightly less features as the hardware doesn't support it. Compare how many phones apple releases in one year compared to how many samsung phones are released in a year low/midrange/high. I'm sorry but you can moan about updates all you want, Android updates will always be finite to a manufacturers update policy and every manufacturer pretty much have similar if not worse update policies to samsung, bottom line is if you want updates buy an apple device, I know not everyone does the research on phones and what not but people end up moaning about obvious things.
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
yes i have news for you just forget the grace ux and the extra features you know samsung we are only getting the nougat update with the interface of mm nothing more really starting to irritate to samsung worst company ever ! the best phone are with the snapdragon these days you can put aosp roms on it and thats heaven for everybody instead of the ****ty and ugly ass samsung touchwiz you can do nothing with the phones any more the best is just aosp roms you can get the latest features of google any time and look to samsung ? hahah just haha still people can give money to the money hunters XD
[Galaxy S6 General] Mercz23:
Nah s6 will get grace dude

[Galaxy S6 General] Cloud Strife 48:
Samsung recently brought two new features from the Galaxy Note 7 to the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 edge through an update in Italy, and the company is now pushing out the same update to consumers in India. Both devices are getting an over-the-air update sized at around 150 MB; the update brings the Samsung Cloud service and also the new gallery that features face and object recognition.

The update also improves performance in games that utilize the Vulkan API and the response of the touch screen. Power consumption improvements are also on-board thanks to optimization to Smart Manager. A couple of bug fixes are included as well, with a fix for the flashlight/torch not working properly and for problematic cover recognition.

(c) Abhijet

Maybe there's a high possibility S6 and S6 Edge will get this update..
[Galaxy S6 General] Zico 10:
Rather than guessing or going with a gut feeling, let's try stick to facts...

The Mali-T760 in the S6 is compatible with Vulkan API

http://malideveloper.arm.com/documentation/developer-guides/vulkan/

It is likely that the S6 will get the API.

[Galaxy S6 General] Dr.Pepper:
on MM they did it after google realese!

so we have a small chance

[Galaxy S6 General] Mercz23:
Ye i think the same but lets hope we got beta too.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
I think we'll get the nougat update but we'll be waiting a while, I don't see us getting it this year at all, maybe sometime 1st quarter next year. At most maybe a beta by the end of the year if we're lucky
[Galaxy S6 General] Dr.Pepper:
some sources claim that well get it in Q4 2016!

i think itll be in December16/January17
[Galaxy S6 General] halloo13:
Yup... at least Grace UX will come to the S6 line.. I mean Okay, maybe we won't get AOD and the new Status Bar but Grace will be included
[Galaxy S6 General] vipanonymous:
No need to quote if you don't have any real info. I've only asked cause I was thinking [MENTION=6563542]Mercz23[/MENTION] was part of the beta testing. I know how frustating the android updates are bro, especially with Samsung, I think they should have a 4 year support, but you know, money always win.

I don't expect much from the Nougat update only the new white interface and this:

and i'll be happy. :good:
