  • Download the firmware of your phone though laptop.marshmallow is available

  • Is this handset available in India ????? Can I buy it in India ???

  • My fone is still runng 5.1.1 n system update is sayng ur fon is up to date...can anybody tel me how i get updated my fone to marshmallow....

  • u can always take it to a service place for phones and have a diganotics and go from there

  • dont upgrade marshmallow to lolipop otherwise you will loose your network in 6.0.1

  • Turn off WiFi and Bluetooth if not actively used. WiFi especially, since it's constantly polling and searching for something to which it can connect.

  • Could anyone tell me what to do if battery loses charge in less than 10 hrs, I've already tried closing all apps, resetting, updating, and sprint store says the battery is fine. It also gets hot in my pocket and I don't have any insurance on the device. I still have about 1 month of manufacturer warranty which doesn't offer a reasonably fair solution. Please let me know your opinion on this.

  • Hello Everyone, Can anybody tell me how can I upgrade this S6 (G920P) from Lollypop to Marshmellow?...

  • Hello Everyone, Can anybody tell me how can I upgrade this S6 (G920P) from Lollypop to Marshmellow? any easy way?

  • M using smg 920v n this device dont get updates it is still runing os 5.1...can anyone tel me how i update my device to os 6..

  • So what your saying is that there is no heating on the back of the phone and the battery life is good

  • My S6 is very hot, after using it for 5mn or 10mn

  • AnTuTu Benchmark Samsung S6 Android OS6.0.1 82056 Ranking#12, AnTuTu Benchmark iPhone 6 iOS9.3.2 80223 Ranking#13

  • my phone reboots again and again as soon as i configure the internet settings and restart the s6 sprint for using the internet any opinions??

  • i have a confusion about the internal storage...along side 32gb rom is there 128gb of non expandable storage...what i mean is do i get 32gb rom,3gb ram and128gb of non expandable storage..or 128gb storage is unavailable...

  • I still didn't get the mashmellow update! Anyone out there who still didn't receive it 😑

  • yes it works on gsm netorks.

  • Does anyone know if a galaxy s6 bought at verizon (wich uses CDMA) can work in a GSM Carrier? Considering the fact that this phone is hybrid..

  • is CDMA and GSM carriers here as they are a bit behind on what changes to make the operators, 3g 4g funsionara you not sure, you can buy Verizon also supports

  • So I picked up this phone few days ago as used one and also I am in Europe what I am interested about is if this phone is CDMA how is it that I am using it overseas.

  • No, only with CDMA networks

  • I have got Samsung S6 last few months, it's features overall, S6 is the best phone I have got up-to-date. It's current reduced price is very good for all functions. I love to watch some videos or movies before sleeping, it's lovely in sound and picture. Try to get black one, so no reflections when watching in dark bedroom. The camera is good on 16 mp, but not like sony Z5 prm. Never heated, battery charges in less one hour, and lasting the full day. Highly recommended.

  • Have had the phone for a week, been against buying Samsung or Apple because I like to think for myself and did not want to buy just to be with the in crowd but decided what the heck and decided to give the s6 a chance. In my opinion the turbo and the m8 seemed to work better, I was 100% right. Even the two year old m8 is so much better than Samsung's piece of crap. Returning this thing first thing in the morning and going to continue to think for myself. No one going to admit it unless you own one but the Droid turbo is the best on the market at the moment.

  • lg g3
