Is there a way to stop/prevent the S6 (SM-G920F) currently on 5.1.1 from checking and downloading software updates?
I do not want to update to 6.0.1 yet, and yes, I have already disabled the 'Auto update' option in the 'Software Update' menu but somehow, annoyingly, it still does check and download the software update.
Help, please!

Hi
So I was rooted, and I heard about the bug fixes for the new update Lollipop 5.1.1, so I decided to unroot and install the update through Samsung Kies.
But, I am really confused. After the update completes, on Kies and when I click, "Update Now" it says I have the latest version. But then I look under "About Phone" and it shows "Android Version: 5.0".
Is this normal? Does it not show 5.1.1? The update didn't fail, it said it was applied successfully. And when I go into Download Mode (Odin Mode) it shows I have the Samsung Default Binary and the Official Version, etc. etc.
So,
Was it supposed to just show 5.0? Is it actually 5.1.1?
Thanks in advance,

EDIT: Model SM-G900P (Running on Sprint)

Hi there,
Nothing looks wrong, just looks like Sprint is keeping you on 5.0 for now...
The Android 5.0 update for Galaxy S5 owners with Sprint (model number SM-G900P) can now be downloaded OTA. To see if the update is waiting for you, just go to Settings > About Phone > Software Update.

Any further questions about this device, please feel free to ask in the > Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 5 > Sprint Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting forum.
Hope this helps.
Facing an odd issue, it appears in Kies and says the update to lollipop is available for the device (SM-N915G, XSA, Australia) the phone is unlocked, so it's not through a carrier and it was brought outright, when plugged into kies it says there's an update available, click update, nothing happens at all after proceeding with "Next" "Update" etc.
The update doesn't appear in Settings > About device > System update. What can I do?
(PS. Not a rooted device, not modded, no TWRP/CWM, not unlocked bootloader or anything, keeping 100% stock please.)
Hello everyone. I just recently got a note edge, it's the verizon version but I have it on straight talk, the software that I'm running right now is 5.0.1, I want to update to the 5.1.1 version but when I try and do the update from settings everytime it tells me that software update is temporarly unavailable, any idea on how to fix that or if I can update via computer?
if i am not mistaken, just download the latest firmware for your phone on your computer
use ODIN to flash the new firmware

Why would you want to update when 5.1.1 has proven to be such a major headache?
Hello, friends!
My girlfriend has a Mate 7 L09. I have noticed that it has been "stuck" on KITKAT 4.4.2 since the very beginning. Checking for OTA just gives the answer that there are no new available. However this device should be able to upgrade to 6.0. I was wondering why OTA's don't work and deceided to ask you. Do you have any ideas?
Have you tried to check the update availability through Hicare application? To me this was the only way to update the phone.
Hello everyone
I have a galaxy S6 G920F and when I enter in the setting option, I can't find the "system update" menu. I'm on 5.1.1 (lollipop) version now and I want to jump to Marshmallow while waiting if nougat will be available in my device.
How can I get the system update without using odin or having to flash my smartphone?
Thank you in advance

Settings --> About device (all the way at the bottom) ---> Download updates manually
E. Below that is an option for automatic updates when connected to wifi.
