The official G925FXXU2BOFL (KSA) and G925FXXU2BOFJ (XEU) bringing Android 5.1.1 Lollipop with number of improvements, changes and security fixes are available for the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, you are welcome to upgrade your existing firmware version using the available updating options like OTA, Samsung KIES or using manual instructions in case you dislike to wait for its coming to automatic updates like KIES or OTA. Or perhaps your device is powered with a custom ROM and being rooted to which you will not receive any update notifications automatically.
In this post I will try to guide you through the entire process of bringing XXU2BOFL and XXU2BOFJ build firmware.
- Remember that you only install the G925FXXU2BOFL (KSA) or G925FXXU2BOFJ (XEU) Android 5.1.1 Lollipop firmware to International Galaxy S6 Edge G925F. Not on any other Samsung Galaxy S6 models.
- Any root access that you might have now will be wiped out by the firmware.
- Those who use a custom recovery like CWM / TWRP / Philz / etc will be replaced with a stock recovery and also if your phone is using a custom ROM will need to perform a factory reset to boot normally and the ROM system partition will be deleted.
- You will need to firstly activate USB debugging mode of your Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge .
- Odin will be used on this tutorials therefore make sure you have a working Windows OS computer, a USB cable and also have installed USB drivers originally from Samsung,
- Disable both antivirus and Samsung KIES installed on your computer temporarily to avoid them interrupting Odin from working.
- The battery of your smartphone should be enough to perform the flashing procedures below.
- Do not start the procedures before making necessary backups over your existing data.
- KIES will recognize your smartphone once the firmware is fully installed.
Do it at your own risk.
Now you must download the files below to your own PC.
- Download G925FXXU2BOFL (KSA) Android 5.1.1 Lollipop firmware.
- Download G925FXXU2BOFJ (XEU) Android 5.1.1 Lollipop firmware.
