Verizon Galaxy S5 Gets Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow Update

Samsung Galaxy S5 (Verizon)

Today, Verizon is rolling out Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow update to its Samsung Galaxy S5 customers. This update carries a firmware version G900VVRU2DPD1 and comes with features like Wi-Fi calling, Ultra High-Quality Audio, new TouchWiz skins and new app icons along with the usual Marshmallow features like Doze, Google Now on Tap, and better control over permissions for apps.

If you have a Galaxy S5 on Verizon then you can download the update via over-the-air now. Please remember that the update is being rolled out in batches and it may take a few days for all of Verizon’s Galaxy S5 units to receive the Marshmallow update in that fashion.

If you received a notification message for this software update:

  • Tap “Yes, I’m in” to start downloading the software update.
  • Once the software update has finished downloading, Tap Install now.
  • Your phone will restart automatically after the install.

If you did not receive a notification message for this software update, follow the steps below to manually update your phone:

  • Tap the Settings icon in the apps menu.
  • Tap About phone.
  • Tap System updates.

Since downloading software via a mobile network may result in additional charges, it is better for you to use a Wi-Fi connection when downloading software updates. You have to remember that firmware updates require at least 3GB of free space in your phone and also make sure that your battery is fully charged or at least 70% so that your phone will not turn off while downloading or updating software.
