But battery does seem to be lasting better.
I'm guessing they rolled out the stage fright fix with whatever they had finished improvements on.

Possibly, I just hope they don't gimp it by freeing up too much ram, around 80% usage is good.

Just a shame people think high ram usage is a negative thing.

No, that's why I said imagine so.
Even security patches have to be cleared by networks.
But with it being a high risk, I'd expect a quicker roll out.

Hey guys I have noticed theres been a small update after the official 5.1.1 release to fix some problems which i have heard on internet that sorts out (RAM, battery drain etc)

 

The firmware is - G920FXXU2BOG8

 

My firmware is currently  - G920FXXU2BOFJ

 

Has anyone got the new update on there O2 galaxy s6 yet? I am going to hook my phone up to Samsung Smartswitch to see if the 200MB+ update is available yet. Hope O2 updates us ASAP coz my battery is starting to drain more and RAM is constantly at around 86% used which is very annoying!
