S6 Edge+ just got lollipop in Canada. I have an S6. Can I flash the firmware? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I know that for roms, you can install custom roms meant for S6 Edge, etc. on the S6. Does that work for firmware aswell? The only reason I want to flash the new lollipop firmware is to have the lollipop bootloader and install the new Xtrestolite.
So basically my question is can I flash the lollipop firmware for S6 Edge+ on 5.1.1 S6?

Try it out. The worst that'll happen is it'll fail and you'll just have to flash back the stock ROM

Hello,
There is no Marshmallow firmware available for S6 AT&T.
We dont recommend flashing any other devices roms into another ones.

Custom Rom for Marshmallow?

So I decided a few weeks ago to get off of the custom Lollipop roms and onto stock Marshmallow. My question is, are there any custom Marshmallow roms that will work on my Sprint S5 now that I took the leap over to Marshmallow? I've done some reading that most of the custom Marshmallow roms for the Sprint S5 you have to be on Lollipop firmware and do not work with Marshmallow firmware. Any help pointing me to any custom roms that will work will be much appreciated.

Pure rom is a note 5 port that needs the mm firmware. There is also a stock deodexed rooted version of the stock rom you can flash. Both of those work well. The newest version of cm13 also allows you to flash it over the mm firmware.

On stock rom, u can't. U can only flash a g920f rom on another g920f even with different regions, but not different s6 model.
Some custom roms support multiple s6 models though like OdexLite
