If you own a Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge on T-Mobile in the United States then you should keep an eye out for a new firmware update today. Don't get your hopes up, the handset isn't receiving the much-awaited Android 7.0 Nougat update. T-Mobile has sent out a minor update which brings the March security patch to the 2015 flagships.

Firmware version G920TUVU5EQC2 and G925TUVU5EQC2 has been rolled out by T-Mobile for the Galaxy S6 and the Galaxy S6 edge respectively. Since this is a minor update it weighs in at just over 100MB.
