At Verizon, we know it's very important for you to have the latest update for your phone. However, we're not going to give it to you. Or are we? Maybe we will. What will you do for it? How bad do you want it?
mama23dogs, Getting the updates to your device should be seamless, and give you a temporary option to wait to proceed. Eventually your phone will do the update on its own, but you can delay it for a little while. I recommend readung the learn more tab when it comes through for some great info and tips of the new update.

They will release it after people have spent the money to buy the S7.
You do not want it! It's buggy. That's been confirmed by a Verizon TS agent.
I got a "bad copy" and it bricked my phone. Verizon had to do a factory update to fix sync problems with Google and Verizon Cloud. 5 days later, I'm still not back to normal.
And, I'm constantly getting a Android.process.acore has stopped error constant after 6.0 Update
And, the Kindle app will not install
And, the Gallery cannot move files between the internal and external SD card. And, the edit function is gone.
Those are the issues I've found so far. The Verizon tech said to wait a few weeks and there should be another update to fix the update.
Shhhh. They want it let them have it. They all say it works awesome and there isn't anything every wrong with updates. Be careful they'll call you a shill or working for Verizon for lying.
We havent even gotten a first update yet let alone a security update since December that brought up to November.
I Thought it would be a few more weeks or months befor the GS6 went to Marshmallow. I mean, we are talking Samsung here - the king of bloat.
But Verizon wants to sell the S7 that was recently released. They are going to withhold the update so people will be "forced" to buy the S7 instead of waiting for any update for the S6. It's all about that money!
The update was just released to the carriers on the 19th. Give them a few weeks to test it.
Test it, remove key enhancements, add bloatware, test again. Your notion of a few weeks would be nice, but try a few months to be realistic.
I Would rather wait and get a bug free version than get it now.

are you sure you want that?
I used to work for a router manufacturer, and the number one complaint we received from the end user, note end user not customer, was that the router was missing features that they needed and had ones that they didn't like and "can you please change it" the answer was always that those who purchased it from us chose which features to add or more importantly not add. If you want to order one from us here is our sales team's phone number, minimum order is 50.
And I think the same thing could be said about this. If you don't want the apps and features Verizon adds to your phone you should purchase one directly from Samsung. It costs more, but you wouldn't be sitting here hitting F5 on whichever Android news site you're on hoping to see an announcement that Verizon just released 6.01 for the S6 and S6 Edge.
The unlocked GS6 didn't have marshmallow as of last week and still doesn't have Samsung pay.
if updates are that big a deal, buy a Nexus, Apple or pure edition.
