We already know it includes the June Security Patch. Hopefully they fixed the problems we've been having with MM as well.
Here's the tiny (59.1mb) update.zip: Link
Yeah I just got it. I am going to wait to update though.
I received the notification too. Probably just the June security updates that all the other carriers already rolled out.

I don't think so. Normally if it's just the security update, the info on the update just says "This update includes the latest Android security updates."
This says enhancements and improvements along with Android security updates.

Good catch. Hopefully, like you said before, it fixes some of the issues from the MM update.

Yeah.. I'm getting tired of my music randomly pausing for a second.. lol. I wish I could just update now but eff losing my Dev bootloader. I hope the odin .tar comes out soon so we can just flash it without the aboot.

This one actually rebooted the phone and started it up from scratch and optimized Android system. The previous security updates have never done that to my phone.
How do I keep from getting this? Already on MM with unlocked bootloader. I should say it's already on my phone waiting for me to apply it.

No mention of fixing camera quality or music skipping problems.
Just finished the update. Takes you up to 6.0.1. Don't see much else different.
EDIT: NM, didn't even realize the last update was 6.0.1. Thought it was just 6.0

Android security patch June 1st also
Ahh nice. I didn't even see the mention of the security updates.
Did Verizon patch the aboot.mbn for 15 EMMC users, or is it always included in updates? There is a new aboot and boot.img file included in the new PF4 OTA zip.

Like any OTA, you'll lose Dev Bootloader status. We'll have to wait for someone like @jrkruse or @muniz_ri to make a ROM.

Well what about from G900VVRU2DPF4 to G900VVRU2DPD1 without loosing data since they are both 6.0.1?
I need the tar file for the pf4.... So i can flash my locked and unrooted pb1 phone via odin. Does someone have a link to the needed tar file? I need the stock tar one not debloated or rooted one.

Just got notified of a new update. Sprint's website says that it fixed a major security issue (Stagefright). Anyone know anything about this? Any performance improvements/new features? Is it rootable like ZV7?
I just got notified about an update on my 996 as well. Hoping someone can clarify on what this update changes.
Not 100% sure of the changes, but take a look for yourself! Just received this in the morning, and uploaded to Google Drive. Enjoy!

Can i take this update?I am on v7 rooted system.img.Will it work if i update.?Thanks
No. If you are rooted it will not work.
So has anyone else's gotten really crappy from doing this switch? i have had more problems after this update, and the 5.1.1 update made the phone finally what its supposed to be.
If you need root for the new update, I can do it
Just send me a system backup

What would one have to do to hide an update like this? As far as i can see it's not worth unrooting for.
Edit: just figured it out. My apologies.
how do you turn off OTA updates?

If you long press the notification you can open app info and disable notifications from it.
It won't fully "disable" the updates but itll at least stop nagging you about them.
Probably a better way to do it but this works for me.
Are you people aware of the stagefright security issues and the recently published exploit? Did you really not know about the worst security flaw in Android affecting about 950 million Android phones?
Check this page out for details:
https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/category/technologies/operating-systems/mobile/android/
Install this upgrade as soon as possible, it will ensure that your phone is protected from the stagefright bugs plaguing Android for months, we'll since discovered a few months ago. It is the most important update your phone has ever received.
LG does not have this update for the European Flex2 yet, lucky you that you get it already.

Looks like it's just for Samsung Pay.
LOL, I take my phone out and this exact screen is staring at me. Time for a new update.
Probably the production version of Samsung Pay since general release is supposed to be Sept 28th.

I thought that you would always lose root, when updating ota.
Also, I read that you can use the same method to root again.

Now getting it. A 30.1 MB update.
Same root method.
"This software update includes Android security updates for your Samsung Galaxy S5"
Based on what I've seen from people who updated, here's the info:
Still 5.0 with the same changelist as the past 3 updates (4782027)
Patches all the known issues with stagefright
Includes the 2015-11-01 security patch from google.
Here is the update.zip for anyone (hopefully @muniz_ri) that wants to make a ROM from it.
Probably another update to screw us over like oe1

Was it worth it? I am in the same boat and scared to pull the trigger. I am kicking myself for doing the latest update because I have the unlimited data plan (which just want up $20 per month by the way).

Is it safe to download this update, move it to the external sd card, then use the button combo and update it that way without a PC? I don't have one and my OTA update thing keeps telling me "software update is currently not available". BTW I'm on the OG5 version currently.
So is it normal for Tmobile and Sprint go get updates first?
Looks like they have an update rolling out starting last night.
Anyone get one on AT&T yet. Might jump per to Tmobile firmware if They get all the updates first.
Also what security patch is the U1 firmware on? I know Samsung made some promises after the unlocked S7 that they would be better at pushing out updates directly to that phone. If they get better with those updates I'd switch to that firmware I think as well.
Yes, T-Mobile & Sprint are faster generally.
As for Samsung's promise to step up support for the U phones, I guess it's too early to tell. With that said, however, Samsung recently pushed out the May update for the 935U which was a pleasant surprise. So far after Samsung's promise, the 935U has gotten the updates 2 months in a row instead of once every 3 months.

Updates are region and or Carrier dependent. Updates are rolling out soon for all other variants. Next update will be August security patch. Now don't go around asking in September why we don't have a September security patch yet.
I really don't get why people bug out for Security patches. You are more likely to drop your phone in a puddle of water in the middle of the desert than be hacked because a month or two outdated security patches on Android.
Anyone got the update's changelog ?
