Bro, you have different device with 6.0.1 you know, much better device.
[Galaxy S6 General] Baby.Boy:
Oh, yes, I know what you mean.

That's what I thought.

But I honestly doubt that I would face any problems.

Nougat manual for S6 Edge! Ugh!

http://www.theandroidsoul.com/galaxy-s6-and-s6-edge-nougat-update-user-manual/
[Galaxy S6 General] kmaximax:
that shows EDGE and EDGE+ the S6 is SM-G920F the manual front doesn't mention the SM-G920F [emoji53]
[Galaxy S6 General] Cloud Strife 48:
My bad. Sorry. Yup, just S6 Edge/+.
[Galaxy S6 General] Cloud Strife 48:
Some contents from S6 Edge Nougat manual.
[Galaxy S6 General] Navios92:
So this is a confirmation that we're getting GraceUX. Can't find anything in the manual about AOD as expected. But it's good that we're getting the option to change screen resolution.
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Yea. Nougat is close for s6. 22 feb

[Galaxy S6 General] AndroidianiMember:
I saw that there is also the Blue Light Filter feature
[Galaxy S6 General] Windforce0511:
I really did not expect option to change resolution in Nogat. That is great!
[Galaxy S6 General] Mercz23:
you dont need AOD guys with this battery will suck hard we have roms with aod and if you use aod suck hard i like the fact that they will make same update to s6 as s7 :)
[Galaxy S6 General] hare89:
Yeah it seems that we get on s6 same update like s7 even new camera app...

This is really exception from samsung cause s4 and s5 never got full update like this on their last update...

I woudnt be suprised even if they include Aod now...
[Galaxy S6 General] halloo13:
That's very cool! Samsung I'm proud of you :D there are sooo many new/cool feauters inside this Update.. But actually I don't think we'll get AOD because they have to change the description about the Galaxy S6 and those who cell this phone (Vodafone, O2..) have to update their descriptions and add the fact that the phone has an AOD and I don't think they'll change that on a nearly 2 year old phone
[Galaxy S6 General] lynxblaine:
I almost don't want AOD with the tiny battery already. But everything else looks awesome!
[Galaxy S6 General] Navios92:
Exactly! Even if we get, I will not be using it.

no one will use it..why get more battery drain..

[Galaxy S6 General] Baby.Boy:
Thank you guys for the news.

The update looks promising. Nice.

I wasn't going to use AOD either, but it was better if we could have it. :P

But still, the update is good enough.
[Galaxy S6 General] aaatoel:
Great news indeed! Let's wait and see if the rumors will be confirmed though. The AOD feature would be nice to have, even if we won't use it!
[Galaxy S6 General] Mercz23:
anyway aod i think can be port easy now when nougat is out for s6
[Galaxy S6 General] Windforce0511:
Why AOD is so important?
[Galaxy S6 General] Baby.Boy:
It would be nice, but having it from the SameSong is something else, a better feeling!:D

But as I said, the update is good enough that we can forget the AOD.

Plus, everybody including me are saying that we are not gonna use it, so what's the difference, really.:p

[Galaxy S6 General] j_tag:
Just got the january security update for my nordic version 920f ... damn really hoped it was the nougat but the update was only 320mb
[Galaxy S6 General] Rusher:
320Mb for security update? I think it's to much. Some people says that this update also changes the bootloader version, so maybe it's like some kind of preparing for Nougat update.
[Galaxy S6 General] hare89:
They skipped few months of security updates and that is probably why it is 320mb...
[Galaxy S6 General] matthew2man:
they have update bootloader version and security patch
[Galaxy S6 General] javitolopez69:
Bootloader???
[Galaxy S6 General] matthew2man:
yes, it has binary 5 now

they add tons of things
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
The logic that it's down to battery is ridiculous, some of the mid level phones which are getting it in 2017 have the same and even less battery capacity, if the s6 doesn't get aod it will purely down to marketing, but tbf I don't really care if we don't get it, I was never gonna use it. But that's just my preference.
[Galaxy S6 General] Fury556:
I shan't hold my breath :D Seems kinda pointless to patch it before going up to N soon after, might as well just get N released, but Samsung knows best :angel:
[Galaxy S6 General] mildj84ns:
Half of people on this thread are focused on, probably, the least useful feature - AOD.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
I honestly don't get the fascination with it, I won't be using aod for sure, and if we do get it I bet there's gonna be people moaning about battery life for a feature they wanted. the s6 will be behind the s7 and s8 in terms of flagship status, giving the s6 the nougat update, updated UX and display scaling is honestly all I want is more than any other manufacturer has given to their flagship which is gonna be 2 years old and older.
[Galaxy S6 General] mildj84ns:
Exactly. I don't get it either, it drains battery faster while doing almost nothing for a user. And yet so many people are focused on that feature rather then dozens of other new features that are actually good and useful.
[Galaxy S6 General] Mercz23:
lol there is aod for s6 guys i use it so many times but the end of the day its sucks for our phone ?
[Galaxy S6 General] Fullmetal Jun:
When I turned off aod on my cousin's s7 and disabled some preinstalled stuffs, it was as if I had done some magic and he got a little more battery life!

Us with our tiny battery, if aod was in Nougat, then Samsung would have another headache about people complaining of the poor battery life with Nougat, bugs, and AOD sucking battery life due to poor optimisations and so on! Why'd they even bother when all they'll get are loads of complaints about the update being worse than the previous, i.e, the universal trend on official Android stock updates! I never even used it on my Nokias :)
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
I can guarantee no matter what sort of update we get, whether that includes aod or not people will complain. People are already complaining about the battery life on this phone, if even by a little bit nougat brings slightly better battery with better doze optimisation people will still complain about things.

[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
The screenshots in this manual show that Nougat on the Galaxy S6 is going to look more or less the same like it does on the Galaxy S7. Users will get the Grace UX that was introduced with the Galaxy Note 7 first last year along with all of the features that are part and parcel of Nougat. A new camera interface that’s gesture-friendly is included and so is the new Pop-up View mode and a redesigned status bar with stackable notifications.

The Galaxy S6 Nougat update manual also reveals that some features will remain exclusive to the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 edge such as the motion panorama feature called Wide self-portrait with motion, Video Enhancer, Performance Mode, camera modes like Food, Selfie flash, and Hyperlapse as well as the Always On Display.

Do you guys think we are also getting the screen resolution adjustment like in screenshot below?
[Galaxy S6 General] hare89:
Yes we get it , its in the manual for s6/n5...

But its seems that reducing resolution doesnt give big improvement in battery/performance...
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
The guys over at gsmarena tested the phone battery life with reduced screen resolution for the s7 edge and the battery life increase wasn't even much so I'm gonna predict the same case will be for the s6.
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Changing screen res dsnt improve battery :)). It was tested already
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
We very well could get it then to be fair, if there are no hiccups with the update for the s7 and it's variants and the n7 then it will help us getting it quicker. Problem with Samsung is that they have so many handsets released recently, like the a and c series phones.

[Galaxy S6 General] Evil01:
It does/should, look for example at PC GPU+CPU power draw when game is locked at 30/60 and unlocked running 30+/60+.

If our gpu is able to render 60+ fps at lower resolution and games etc. have locked fps to 30/60 then our gpu is using less power.
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
It just changes dpi not actual res
[Galaxy S6 General] Evil01:
LOL just DPI ? Are you sure ?

We have 2560x1440p screen and all pixels will be always on (i dont count setting some black checker board to artifically lower resolution (still renders 1440p but screen is displaying less)).

If it lowers render resolution (like in pc, for e.g. fhd screen running at hd, still all pixels ale running but gpu renders less) then we should have gain in gpu intensive tasks like games etc.

If it's only DPI then sure, no gains etc.

Edit:

Besides Samsung already had function build in to change dpi (might have been hidden for some)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.evozi.displayscaling&hl=pl
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Trust me. I used it on n7 ports..it wasnt helping at all..but i hope im wrong..im really hoping for this to work on nougat as it should..
[Galaxy S6 General] Evil01:
We should have gains in gpu intensive tasks like games etc. not in static images, webpages etc.

If you are gaming, watching a lot of videos on your phone and didnt see any gains then it's realy strange (in theory we should have gains if we were/are able to render 60+ fps, even if we were hard locked to 60 fps before then by changing render resolution it lowers gpu work).

If it was working correctly on n7 ports and keeping in mind what i said earlier and you still didn't have any gains then well, cant argue with that (love theory and practice thing >.<), im running stock so cant check for my self till update rolls out.

As some of you may already know, the Android Nougat update is already available for the AT&T variants of the S6, S6 Edge and S6 Edge+ if you know how to get it from their servers. Maybe you can port that one to the regular S6?
[Galaxy S6 General] iDroid27210:
"Android Nougat update is available on S6, S6 edge and S6 edge +. Could you port it to the S6 ?"

Except it's a weird message (turn on your brain please), there's no update available yet (after looking on SamMobile).

Galaxy S6 Active AT&T got Nougat beta source

Anyone have idea why regular S6 is not first? :D
[Galaxy S6 General] mildj84ns:
Did you made a mistake and wanted to write that it's already available for S7, or maybe that update is available for some version of S6?
[Galaxy S6 General] Jimmyvb98:
I own an S6 Active and I already sideloaded the Android Nougat update. See the screenshot for the proof. As I already said, it is only available if you know how to get it and it is a beta. Based on your reactions, it looks like nobody found this update before. I tought someone would have done that by now as I explained everything for the S7, but it seems I was wrong. Do you want me to upload the update for the G920A to Google Drive? Remember this is only for the AT&T variants as I only know how their servers are put together.
[Galaxy S6 General] RazorGamingHD:
I am talking about regular S6 SM-G920F lel
[Galaxy S6 General] Jimmyvb98:
I know, I was the one who found that one. I was curious if there were earlier builds available for the regular S6, and as I expected there were earlier builds available. Sorry for my bad English, I'm Dutch.

[Galaxy S6 General] RazorGamingHD:
do you have for Regular S6 G920F?
[Galaxy S6 General] Jimmyvb98:
Because AT&T puts their beta versions only. They are not intended for daily use, but they are pretty stable. They are only accessable if you know the servers adress.

---------- Post added at 08:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:07 PM ----------

I'm sure the update files are online, but I don't know Samsungs way of updating their phones. Maybe if they use a server like AT&T does, we can search for the server and download those updates. But I don't think Samsung will let it happen as easily as AT&T does.
