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.

The changelog doesn't reveal much besides informing the owner that “the security of your device has been improved.” We know that it brings the March 2017 security patch that includes fixes for 73 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) in the Android OS as well as fixes for 12 exploits found in Samsung's own software.

T-Mobile is now rolling out this firmware update to users on its network, the firmware files are also live on our firmware section for the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 edge.
