Tab S2 Android 5.1.1 update is out! build T710XXU1BOH6

[itskapil]

Android 5.1.1 is out for Tab S2.
Because Tab S2 forums aren't available, hence mentioning it here.
Hopefully, Tab S gets it too.

Tab S2 users can grab it here - http://samsung-updates.com/details/51450//SM-T710/BNN/T710XXU1BOH6.html

Do you think we will get it?

Hopefully it brings theme support for the S2... a man can dream.

Somebody installed it already?
What are the differences?

I wonder why it's not not even in samfirmware.com . Maybe it's not really android 5.1.1?

I can confirm that it doesn't trip knox, and that it does install 5.1.1. Here's the tricky part. When the tablet boots it still says galaxy tabs s2, then flashes the samsung logo, then flashes the nook logo. I have all my previous apps now with the addition of several Nook apps.
It's almost as if it's a random hybrid.

Indeed, I think it's a special one it has country code BNN "unknown" ,
there is also another one available which has country code XAR (cellular south) http://samsung-updates.com/details/51460//SM-T710/XAR/T710XXU1BOH6.html

it's not a official update.

Has anyone looked into the XAR one above?
UPDATE: the XAR does not have the Nook integration. In ODIN mode the Current Binary is Samsung Official and System Status is also Official.

If it didn't trip knox, it must be an official samsung update.

Good to hear that
cellular south is an American provider?

I guess we'll see more firmwares in the coming days and weeks

I believe cellular south is an American provider (not a service I have). I have the WIFI only version and so far everything seems to be running smoothly.

There is only 4 ways to obtain a official update, downloading a rom and manually installing them is not considered official, I'm sure Samsung won't give you any download link to official rom.

 

[Itchiee]

Those are official, you officially don't know what you are saying....

if it's not from Samsung, it's not official.

 

[dubbactrumpetmsu]

Anyone have a Mega link for XAR? These downloads are ungodly slow.
