Unlocked and activated an S6 for a friend whose phone died. It's new, was never activated, AT&T branded. It's working fine, except it's still all the way back on 5.1.1 BOJ7. I read that AT&T pulled the Marshmallow update from its servers. So I'm left wondering whether a) there's a way to get the phone to update without needing to flash it, b) what would happen if we simply waited for the Android N rollout. Friend is not tech savvy, so if we go the flashing route I'll definitely be doing all the work. Any suggestions? Thanks.
 
For anyone in the same boat with a Samsung phone, took it to a Best Buy with a Samsung Experience Center and it was shockingly easy. They flashed it for me, Knox wasn't tripped, phone is up to date.
