S6 Not receiving 5.1.X update

My S6 is now on 5.0.2.The same version it was when I got the device. Whenever I try to search for an update, it says "latest version already installed".
I tried connecting to smart switch on PC..still the same..my buddy who also owns an s6 here, has already received the 5.1.1 update.
Any help n suggestions will be good.
Thanks.

Hi maneesha hope you can help
Maneesha 17:49:57
Hello Chris, how are you today?
Thank you for provided me with the information on your query.
Chris Nutt 17:50:25
As you can see its regarding firmware update
I'm good thanks hope your the same
Maneesha 17:51:34
Can I just clarify that your query if about updating the software on your phone?
Chris Nutt 17:53:01
Yes it is maneesha I sent back 2 faulty s6 that were on 5.1 this third is on 5.0,2 and saying up to date I know that's not the case
I'm on three network 5.1.1 was released for it well over a month ago
I've also tried smartswitch
Maneesha 17:55:26
That's correct, we have another update which has been released, 5.1.1 has only been released in the last few weeks. As updates are released in batches and does depend on the serial number and the region you live in.
Chris Nutt 17:56:37
So I will eventually get it I was just worried because other two s6 updated
Maneesha 17:57:21
Yes Chris, the update will still come to your phone, it's nothing to do with a fault. If we released the update to every Samsung user the servers would eventually crash. The update being released in batches does allow a smoother operating.
Chris Nutt 17:57:57
Was worried that somehow I'm missing update especially as I see Samsung are going to be doing security update stage fright etc
Any idea at all of time frame please maneesha?
Maneesha 18:00:17
The stage fright information being reported is still being investigated at this moment Chris to ensure there is no threat to our phones, as the update is released by Google.
Chris Nutt 18:01:01
OK that's good to know I hope to see an update soon cheers for your help
Hopefully really soon lol
Maneesha 18:01:36
My pleasure, is there anything else I can help you with today?
Chris Nutt 18:01:55
No thanks have a good one

If you give us more information we can tell you what the update was. can you go to Settings>about phone and see there and give me the Build number and baseband version.

Samsung usually says nothing detail informations about their updates. So just try it.

The builtnumber of the update would be helpfull.
Then it depends how big the update is. I assume its the latest COJx update around 140 mb?
Security und Performance updates is probably the most what we can say.

Downgrade to 5.0.2

I have Galaxy 6s (920F) with android 5.1.1, i want to downgrade to 5.0.2, i can't find this firmware in google, somebody can send me a link please

You cant after flashing stock 5.1.1

I know this isn't a direct answer to your question, but why would you downgrade? Also, 6.0.1. is here, did you try it? I find it works more fluent than 5.1.1.

Because i can't move my apps to system/app, so i wanted try it in android 5.0.2
about android 6.0, in Israel the update doesn't work yet, still waiting, thanks anyone

It's rolled it out in batches to make sure their servers aren't bombarded with tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of people trying to update it at once.
And your friend may not have the international version: some other carriers push it out quicker
If you want to do it officially, it's just a matter of patience. I know the feeling of frustration, checking for system updates twice a day, but it'll arrive eventually

S7 SM-G930V from Nougat to Stock Marshmallow on Verizon

I wasn't sure where to ask this so I hope it's the correct place. I lost some functionality, that I need in Marshmallow, with the upgrade, this week to Nougat. I'm new to this, so, I need help to go back to Marshmallow with an early 2011 MacBook Pro, please. Thanks

where you ever able to go back? I just got the s7 flat from verizon and it has Android 7 Nougat on it, however it looks like FoxFi doesn't work. Wondering if I can just flash the 6.0.1 version from sammobile with odin or not?
