Flash Android 6.0.1 G920FXXU3DPBG Marshmallow on Unlocked Galaxy S6 G920F

As a Galaxy S6 G920F owner, you should know that Samsung has just released the official Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow firmware update for all the unlocked versions of your device. Aren’t you afraid of the manual flashing procedure and you’ve done that several times before? Then, the guide is for you as long as this can be your chance to stay away of that terrible wait for the over-the-air update to reach to your smartphone.

As you can see below, the procedure requires the Odin tool. For Odin to run on your computer or laptop, you must have the appropriate USB drivers installed and the Samsung KIES software disabled. Then, don’t bet on the fact that this is your lucky day and start the Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update procedure without charging your Galaxy S6 G920F. Making sure that the battery charge of is over 60% is a must too if you want to keep the phone from switching off during installation.

Then, enable USB Debugging. If Developer Options are nowhere to be found, then you must go to Settings> About Phone and tap 7 times on the Build Number section. Even more, if you phone is rooted, then be prepared for the fact that this operation will revoke root access and any custom Recovery you might use at the moment will also be replaced with a stock Recovery.

And as a measure of precaution, I want to remind you the fact that the files below are only compatible with the Galaxy S6 devices having the SM- G920F model number. That is why you should check the model number of your phone under Settings> About Phone, just to be sure you are not making any sort of confusion.
