How to force Android 6 update on my S5?

[amar7]

Hello,

I have my UAE (Code XSG) S5 and Samsung hasn't released an update for like 8 months- , So now I'm thinking about trying it another way to force the update on my device. Android 6.0 is already out on a few devices as I heard, that I'd like to have installed, how can I make it?

Is there a way to root and update without a hard reset? Through Odin or something? Or to change the XSG to recieve the latest update?

cheers

You cannot, "force", this update that is not for your CSC and Product code. There is an Odin flashable .tar package of the release for G900F models, at...
