Marshmellow - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

Apparently the final version of MarshmAllow was released today. Any bets on when verizon phones will see it? My money is on 6 months from now.

I have a feeling MM and Samsung Pay will be pushed over the same OTA sometime in the first quarter of 2016.

If how long it took for the Droid Turbo to get Lollipop is any indication...
You will probably get your tax refund back (USA) before the Note 5 gets Marshmallow.
The Note 6 may be even available for preorder before then!
In other words, don't hold your breath. That would be very bad for you!

Probably when Android 7.0 Nicotine comes out.

I'm Thinking when the Note Edge 2 comes out or the Note 6

Well.... Right about Samsung pay being an OTA. But the OTA is already out with Samsung pay. mm will be early next year latest and as early as a month away from what all sources are saying. I personally can't wait for mm

I thought so too but I installed it from the Google Play store yesterday. And then it disappeared (at least temporarily) from there

Might have been a mistake. Both Samsung and Verizon have said OTA. So untill that OTA I don't even expect it in the store. The Samsung website said when OTA is available it will be built into the system on update

From the videos I've seen so far the doze feature will be nice to have to help with battery life on the Note 5. I will not hold my breath for a quick roll out of MM.

I'm looking to see if marshmallow comes to my note 3. I'm still on KitKat 4.4.2. I haven't made the jump to lolipop yet. I might skip Lolipop and forge ahead with marshmallow.

LG G2 or Nexus 5

Why should i wait for the Nexus 5 when the G2 is out and has the same or better specs. I'm just getting tired of waiting i want a new phone this phone (as great as is it) was almost a mistake to get.

I guess if you don't care about the difference in price, ~$200 for an unlocked device.

As much as that would be a great reason since I have to wait for TELUS to get it anyways cause I can't afford to by it out it does not help me make a choice in this case other then it should still be cheaper.

It was a tough choice, but since the rumor that the N5 is getting a 3000MAh battery was getting debunked, I decided to go with the G2 a few days ago. I might get the N5 as a backup phone if it's announcement impresses me.
If I were to choose a N5 over the G2, it be for the pure google experience, even if i'd say LG's skin is decent.
The lg g2 got the WORST review of any android flagship phone.
It has been discovered that it has carrierID (evil).
We might (my speculation) see a Google edition g2 in the future, I'd get that over a n5 or a regular g2
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Definitely N5 for me...Cheaper, decent specs and...Google exprience !
A Nexus device is better than skinned one, gonna get it as soon as I can and sell my Note 3.
Sent from my SM-N900T using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Well I'm in the same situation as OP, my family is just got off contract with Sprint and we going prepaid trail. So i was sold on G2 before i heard that Nexus 5 is about to get released. So i decided to patiently wait for N5.
Why would i wait? Because I want to always have latest Android os as soon as it released. Because price is cheaper.

Knox is tripped by flashing a Rom or recovery. When u go back to stock the knox is still tripped and u can't change it back to normal. Samsung uses this as an excuse to void ur warranty.
It's some bs that makes me disappointed with Samsung because I wanted the phone for a while but if I can't flash a Rom and totally go back to stock for warranty then it ruins the fun

Given that the Nexus 5 and LG G2 will be similar, is it reasonable to expect that the battery life on the Nexus 5 will be awesome too?
im still debating
I think at this point as long as the nexus 5 gets announced this week I am getting it. If we get no word from Google then I am done waiting.

Is Verizon ever going to update

Perfectly good phone. Still no lollipop for it yet. Look of things. This project just fell right off the table. Like the Verizon 12.2 pro tablet.. My day with Samsung products about to come to end.. HTC was the best device I ever owned. Nexus are made way to cheap and over priced.
I'm starting to feel the same way about this note edge.... But I disagree with the nexus stuff, ever since before the nexus 6 they were very inexpensive. Back when I was strictly HTC, they sucked at releasing updates.
I am disappointed with Verizon.. other Note Edge owners on other networks have received lollipop.
Trust me do not get the lollipop.

I've been with an android phone since day one (currently on my 7th Android phone.. plus 4 different Tablets).. and everytime Google has an update you hear folks saying Don't upgrade.. don't upgrade. I'm running Lollipop on a tablet that came with Honeycomb 3.0 and it works well.

Lollipop isn't bad
Worked fine on my Note 4. The complaints were from people who didn't clear cache or factory reset after the update. Other than the new camera interface and app complaints, it is a worthwhile update.
I'm so ready for an update, I'm a little disappointed on how sluggish this phone is and I still have 12 gig free space

Just spoke with a rep from Samsung
I called again to complain to Verizon about the lack of updates to the Noted Edge. She called Samsung as if to push the blame off on them as to why the release is not available. The Rep said that it was Verizon that hasn't set a release date. She informed me that if I take my phone to a Best Buy and have someone from their Samsung experience update it for me. She said they have a tool to force the update. Is this true? has anyone done this? Or is she full of it?
I'd also like to know if this is true? If so, I'll be there later today doing it.

There is quite a big difference between the two.
1) Android pay is only NFC capable. Samsung pay is not.
2) Samsung pay uses NFC AND MST technology for mobile payments, depending on the terminal.
If you would like more information, I would suggest visiting samsung website referencing to samsung pay.

No I was being serious. I knew they were giving away some wireless chargers with the Note 5 at purchase, but didn't know they were doing it for Samsung Pay too.
It is a crappy charger anyway... Any 3 coil one on amazon for $15 will run circles around this free one in terms of placement and connection stability.

I too want the G5. I like the whole module concept, especially the camera one that extends battery. I'm on the fence though because I'm intrigued by the S7 Edge but at the same time wondering about the next Note lineup up and hoping there's a new version of my Note Edge as this thing is still my favorite phone to date. It really sucks Samsung dragging their feet on marshmallow and is the big reason why I feel like switching to another manufacturer.

Thnx. I was considering the Note 4 but am quite frustrated with how Verizon is trying to lock us down lately. While I've had Samsung devices for a long time, I'm now thinking about the Nexus 6P...
I would go with nexus for sure or one plus devixe, but the note 4 retail editions have now all been successful in converting to developer editions witch is really dope, it brought life back to my device.
