When will the Note 5 receive the Android 6.0 Marshmallow Update?
androidcentral.com may have the answer.
It's not even out yet and people are already asking...
I would go to Android Central for the answer. Go to the forums and find the one for your phone. And although 6.0 is already rolling out, it does take some time for Verizon to clear it for their phones. I have a Nexus 6 and don't expect to get the 6.0 update for a few months because we still have to for Verizon to clear it.
That's the point of the nexus program, updates SHOULD NOT be Verizon dependant... Give us the pure android program we paid dearly for, get your fingers (and bloatware) out of our phone
It came out 10/5
Look at his device. It isn't on ANY Samsung phone that matter and he is already asking when. Nexus devices has an unfair advantage as the code was specifically made for their devices first. Just because the source code was released doesn't mean it is "out" Aside from the PDK OEM didn't see any real code until a couple days ago. Realistically people should start asking God the question when it is coming out no earlier than 2 months from now.
So, let me put it this way. Lollipop was released in November of 2014. I had a Sony Xperia Z2 Tablet Verizon edition. Sony released a Lollipop update for the Sony Xperia Z2 tablet in March of this year. The Verizon version is on the list for the update but as of the middle of September when I traded it in we still had not received the update. That was more than 6 months after the release of the software for the tablet which was more than 5 months after the release of the new Android version.
From what I can tell it takes Verizon about 6 months to verify updates. That may be because they find errors and those have to be fixed. I have not seen it take less than that. So when we would get the update would depend on how quickly Samsung got on reworking the Marshmallow source code to the phone and their unique additions and how many defects Verizon finds when they do their intense QA, and how long it takes for Verizon to add in their unique additions and subtractions with their own developers and agreements with bloatware providers.
The simple answer is that most likely you will be asking where the Nutella update is before you ever get Marshmallow.
I read Verizon is shipping Marshmallow to Xperia z3v phones any day now....................................................................
