A user posted the question "When will the Marshmallow Update arrive for the S6Active?"

Here is the response:
Thank you for reaching out to the AT&T Community Forums!

That is the highly asked question these days. We know our Galaxy S6 Active owners are excited about the new Marshmallow update. I am excited about it too, as I wait for it to be released for my device. I understand the wait may be frustrating but we are working diligently to get the update to you.

We are putting the 6.0 update and your device through extensive testing to ensure full compatibility. Once we are sure that the Marshmallow update will successfully operate on your phone with no issues, we will release it to you. As of now, I don’t have a firm date for when this will happen. Rest assured, when available, you will receive an over the air notification on your device with step-by-step instructions to update your software.

Thank you so much for your patience!

I have been running a beta build since early May and have not run into any issues what so ever. All of the featured improvements work, battery life and device performance is significantly improved over 5.1.1. I cannot for the life of me understand why they are taking so long to approve the OTA.
 
Re: Gs6 active marshmallow

I just side loaded 6.0 works great, no lag, new phone so can't say about battery improvements yet
 
Samsung updated the online versions of the S6A owner materials to reflect the change to Marshmallow, on June 7th. That leads us to believe that the update is supposed to be released this month. We've also read reports of new/refurb S6A units shipping with Marshmallow in the past two months.

Nice!
Did they fix the double resize issue when you send videos via text?

Did the update fix the "active key open app when screen is locked bug"?

Thanks

Thanks for that info

Re: Note4 at&t marshmallow

I'm still waiting for update when update come?
It was officially released by AT&T on the 5th. If you are on AT&T, check for updates. If you are unlocked and on another network, I believe you will have to get the update file and side load it.
