Getting 6.0.1 by changing region in Singapore? - Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I just got a tab-s in Singapore which is stuck at 5.0.2. After a bit of firmware hunting it seems like 6.0.1 was never released here. What is the best way to update to marshmallow? Download a firmware or change my region to some other country? Can you please also provide a howto for the second one. All firmware sites I have tried to get 6.0.1 are horribly slow.
Thanks!

Singapore/the rest of sea got the update on october. If you root your device it wont update by OTA. you need to update manually. Use this website fw.updato.com and download your fimrware. this site will download fast.

AFAIK for cyprus, you have latest ROM(DMB2) installed, no dmb6 for cyprus there.
Though you can update latest ROM for other country. look to thread as @glevitan said you above.

[Q] Where is my G3 really from ?

Hello all, I have a question. I would like your opinion. I want to return my G3 to LG Official stock with OTA working etc, just like it was when I first bought it. So I'm looking to flash the proper and right kdz, but I came across a "problem" .
I have the International 16GB D855. The sticker on the box says that it's " 6SW(Switzerland) " , but when I'm searching on http://lg-phone-firmware.com/index.php the firmware based on my IMEI, it says that the firmware is 6ES ( Spain ).
So what firmware am I supposed to really flash? Is the IMEI one the right one since it searches the phone on LG's Servers?
But then again , the 6SW version hasn't gotten Lollipop update yet, the latest 6SW firmware is version V10L, while my G3 got the Lollipop OTA version V20F before I downgraded it, root and flashed it custom Firmware.
What is your opinion? Sorry for the long post and thank you very much.

You can flash any compatible EURO rom on to your device, like the latest German D855 rom ending with 20H. Link https://mega.co.nz/#!AMoUjCQY!llgH-KlTB4J0paynnnGpIq0ANCAEtXjmUvpx8G8ApQM and flash with LG Flash Tool.
BTW: did you backup your EFS folder?

try using lg pc suite.
to see if there a kdz for ur variant and country follow this link (but change "XXXX" to ur imei/csn, check it under settings/hardware info):
http://csmg.lgmobile.com:9002/csmg/b2c/client/auth_model_check2.jsp?esn=XXXX
then follow the link below this line to download the kdz: <sw_url>
Thanks, for me shows version V49010B_00, so I guess I'll have to wait a little more because it's bought from Orange and it will surely take a long time. Can you provide the lollipop kdz link for your region so I could flash it manually?

XA1 Plus get no Update to Android 8.0 Oreo

Hi there,
im from Germany and buy me a new XA1 Plus from Sony.
I setup all things to do on a new phone also check up for updates too.
But the OS says: No Updates there.
Version now is: Android 7
Build: 48.0.A.1.131
Did somebody know whats the Problem there? Could i do something to solve this Problem? Android 8 is one of the reasons to buy this Phone.
Thx in forward.
I downloaded the xperifirm tool to check the firmware versions of this Modell and regions.
The Central European model seems to be the only one that has not received updates for months.

Well, Not all regions receive updates check for your region related updates also you can try up Xperia Companion to check for updates or simply perform device repair it will re-download OS and flash it back to device this may work or additionally you can use some third party tools to flash the other region ROM which has OREO update to be out.

Thx for reply.
the repair function of the Sony companion software gives me the same old firmware. I gave it up that ever an updated firmware for the XA1 plus Central Europe 1 comes. I sent the phone back and bought an XA2. This is a bit more handy, but otherwise has the better hardware and a current firmware.

You won't get automatic updates outside US.
You can download the firmware and flash it yourself using Odin software tool.
There is plenty of threads in this forum that explain the process.
Latest firmware for your model can be found through this thread.
Flashing is well explained here, although it is for another model so don't flash the firmware referenced there.
All at your own risk. Inform yourself well before starting to flash!
