Latest Update - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed the latest update on my S6 last night and now my icons look like the Note 5's. Quite nice plus there's a few more apps installed.
I was hoping with this update Samsung Pay would have been installed as I've been waiting for it. Seems like it's not there yet.
Anyone got any idea when it will be available in the UK?

Some time soon I guess as zapp should be available at the end of this month for the UK banks

[Q] Root and Samsung Pay

Can anyone in Korea confirm/deny that Samsung Pay works with root, KNOX not tripped?
No one can answer that until it is released, all that can be confirmed is the rumours which is no confirmation

Right, given the current beta test in Korea, I was hoping the right person would stumble across my post (a rooted-XDA-user-Korean-beta-tester, if such a person exists lol).

could just manual install the OTA if its that big of a deal.
Update Google play services and you will get the ota directly.

December Update Brings Theming And Live Caption To Our Device

What the title says, We now have built theming like pixel 4/xl and live captions. Couldnt find a thread for discussion about these new features which gives us a new experience on pixel 3 devices. If you know of any more new features then please feel free to post in this thread.
These are a few screen shots of theming capability and live captioning. The LockScreen clock also gets a theme, we dont have the software to customise the lockscreen as of yet although the fonts get applied automatic.
Lockscreen font change.

Same. Still nothing for me. Don't really feel like side loading it. Lol. I'm not overly concerned about it. This is definitely the first time I've experienced this. My wife (same phone same carrier) has not gotten it either. We're both on Google fi. Oh well. Maybe next year. Ayyyyyy.
