Samsung S6 Edge Upgrade to Latest Andriod - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
i have one of my old phone ( which i use only for Google maps purpose). its AT&T version phone ( unlocked after contract is expired)
Model Number: Samsung-SM-G925A
Andriod Version: 7.0
Baseband Version: G925AUCS7ERC1
I have recently upgraded the phone from old version to Andriod 7 ( by keeping valid at&t sim)
after the upgrade i see battery life got degraded a lot
Is there a way that i can upgrade my current phone to Latest andriod ( verion 8 or 9) . if so how can i do it ?

You can do it only using a custom ROM. S6 will not receive any updates

are there any custom roms for s6 edge available ? where can i get it

Yes, there are many custom ROM: Resurrection Remix and LineageOS are the most famous. I advise you Ultimate Oreo Note 8 port, you can find it on XDA. I can't submit the link of it, but you can simple find it

can u please give me the url of the post so that i will look into it and install

I can't, it's invalid for XDA. You can simply find "Ultimate Oreo note 8 port v.1 s6 " with Google, it's the first XDA result.
Also, note that S6 Edge battery is terrible, mostly after most time. Custom ROM probably wouldn't help you a lot

is this one ?

I bought the Asus Zenfone 6 2 Years Ago now all warranties are ended so im ready for installing custom rom so i wanted to ask few question ( Im rookie when it comes to modding android so im sorry if i offended someone with noob questions)
1>I currently have Lollipop Installed on Zenfone 6 is there really big difference ( In terms of Performance, Usability & UI ) in current OS & Marshmallow (6.0.1) Custom Rom ie. Resurrection remix for Zenfone 6, CyanogenMod 13.0 for Zenfone 6 means custom rom really worth taking risk of Bricking phone?
2>Which rom is more stable & better for Asus Zenfone 6 ( A601CG )?
3>Is rom functionality depends on in which country's network are gonna use on phone? ( im from india so is it possible to use this custom rom in here with indian Mobile Networks since several time different country has different Model of Same Phone )
4>Can i Access Google Play Store for Installing Apps & activate License of Purchased Apps.
5>Tell me anything which is necessary to know Before installing custom Rom

Maybe Samsung lies again.
It's not first time...
Nevermind we have LineageOS 13 and if djeman(we) fix HW Composer djeman continue porting LineageOS 14.1 :victory:
Sometimes people who work there doesn't have knowledge and with all the different versions there it is not very clear which phone is mean't. I look at the latest firmware at sammobile weekly. And until now there is not a single version for F or FN with marshmallow. Since this is a low budget phone there priority lies on the expensive phones.
Hope never dies.
But I how there will be at some point official Lineage versions which are updated frequently.
Xaxaxaxa Samsung and OS upgrades.... :laught:
Official list, but better to write same text for J1 ???
Nothing without XDA devs

Hey [email protected] there is mentioned J3 (2016). But there are so many different version: some run stock marshmallow some lollipop.
I don't know if update means one version higher( MM-> N, L-> MM) oder just every version to MM.
To many different phones named J3 (2016)...

MM runs only US Verizon version of J3 6 with Exynos soc
Our version on European territory running Lollipop and it has SpeadTrum soc.
That's difference than J3 6 with MM and J3 6 with LL
Maybe Samsung push MM update but that's maximum from Samsung and we don't know when we get it or did we get it...
Only Samsung S models get latest major OS updates but only 2 on eg. S6 won't get Android O.
MM TW ROM is great but nothing better than AOSP Android :victory:
J3 6 is low budget phone so Samsung doesn't carry about them, important are S models because they cost 3X more that J3 6.
For now latest patch for J3 is 1 may 2017. we can wait for Samsung and he's TW MM ROM for J3 6, but I think that we get Nougat ROM for J3 6 before than Samsung Upgrade
J3 prime is only $50 and runs Nougat. Buy it off amazon if your to lazy to wait for Nougat on a J3

Hi, I contacted Samsung several times that confirmed me the update to android 6. Yet my research on the internet seem to contradict that. So what is it really like?

Flashing another Region's firmware on Samsung J7 Pro (SM-J730GM)

Hello All,
Please I want to know the consequences of flashing the rom of another region on your Samsung device. Let me explain why I ask this
So recently I upgraded my Samsung j7 Pro (J730GM) to Android 8.1 Oreo and that update changed the binary version of my device to 5 (i.e. J730GMDXU5) so I tried downgrading the phone back to 7.0 but that did not work because Samsung has not released an Android 7.0 Nougat firmware with binary version 5 so downgrading the normal way was quite impossible.
Now I recently found out that Samsung has released an Android 7.0 Nougat firmware with binary version 5 but the region/country it was released for is Mexico while my phone's region is Thailand.
Now my question is, is it possible to downgrade my J7 Pro with the Mexico firmware although my device's region is Thailand because they are both binary version 5? If yes, what are the possible consequences?

Samsung J8 touch screen unresponsive/not working after Oreo 8.0.0/8.1.0 to 9.0 Pie.

I don't know if this is related, off-topic or not. But my brother had this problem after he updated to 9.0 pie update on a samsung j8 phone.
Here is my build number and baseband.
Baseband: J810YDXU2BSD2. Build Number: J810YDXU2BSD3
Country: Philippines, XTC.
I would like to know what firmware should I download to downgrade using flash odin.
:crying:
Hi , I think it will not be easy to downgrade from Android 9 to 8 but you can try with this one :

Samsung S3 downgrade Android 9 to Android 7

How to downgrade Android 9 Pie to Android 7.0 7.1 on Samsung Galaxy S3.
Thank you

How did you make it run Android 9 Pie?

What do you all mean?
There's a whole bunch of Pie 9 on Samsung S3:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development
(but they all have some issues)
What custom rom are you using to run Android 9?
the best ROM for the s3 I9300 is this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-crdroid-v1-5-t3517684
runs Android 7.1.2 and lots of good features.
Hi, I'm sure you're speaking of custom ROMs so there's no problem for downgrade.
The only thing you've to do is data and cache wipe, otherwise your phone will go in bootloop.
