Update: OTA update for Android 5.1.1 is also rolling out now. Size: 635 MB.

It’s finally arrived. The Android 5.1.1 update for the Galaxy S6 edge on T-Mobile is now available for download as Odin flashable, however OTA update roll out for the same is yet to begin.

The firmware carries build number G925TUVU2COF6 and is 1.59 GB in size.

We don’t have a T-Mobile S6 edge in hand to tell you what changes this update brings, but know that this will patch PingPong Root vulnerability and after updating to Android 5.1.1 your only hope for root will be via CFAR, which trips Knox and voids warranty. If you don’t want that to happen, then do not flash this firmware now. Let some developer create a pre-rooted recovery flashable custom ROM for this firmware, and then you flash that one.

For those looking to update right away, the full firmware is available for download at the link below. You can flash it via Odin.
