But it does stop you getting OTA updates on the future doesn't it?

yes i think so, if you want OTA's again, just flash your original back

I will stop you getting South African updates in future, but the upside its that you will receive OTAs from the country the rom is from. In this case XEU (UK and Ireland).

I've always had to flash it manually if there was any update... then again... I wouldn't really give it time to push through to the handset by itself.

No patience at all.

150mb/1.6GB

running at home, so even if it finishes in the next 10 minutes, it will have to wait until I am home.

Flashed 5.1.1 FAILED the first time at about 75%. Tried again. Perfect! Trying to find changes from 5.0.1. First thing: There is an A-Z option to arrange the apps drawer alphabetically!

Till now I was trying to keep my S6 as close to stock as possible. Had a bunch of custom launchers on my S5, but went back to stock every time. Mind you. I had Apex for a few months and it was not too bad.

I've been using Apex for years - much prefer the customisability when compared to the stock Samsung launcher.

Shiat.

Is it only for the edge?

 

[Thor]

Sorry I saw now it's for normal S6 too

 

[Thor]

But does this mean I'll loose my Vodacom warranty etc?

And just as I was typing up something suitably wry that would have left you sobbing into your coffee

No you won't, as it's official firmware
