I have seen many users still have no proper information about upgrading SM-N920C/CD (Galaxy Note 5 and Dual Sim) so i thought i'd write up a simple guide for it.
at the time of writing, Marshmallow Firmwares is only available for CAM and MID CSC Variants, so if you don't mind flashing your lollipop with these firmwares (don't worry you can change it later when your real CSC firmware is released), follow these steps or just walk away

Steps:
1. Get Odin and Extract Odin ZIP file
2. Get Marshmallow Rom [ CAM ] [ MID ]
3. Enable Developers Option and turn on OEM Unlock from the Developer Options.
4. Reboot to Download Mode by first turning off the phone and then holding volume down + home + power key combo
5. Start Odin and Connect your phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin, then Select the Firmware by clicking the AP button and wait for few minutes to let it load the 4gb file after its finished loading, Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked, Click start and wait for your device to reboot.
Known Issues:
1 if you flash CAM csc firmware, you'll have S health restrictions, on older version there was a bypass by using xposed module but nothing yet for 6.0.1
Thnx

no, it uses a different bootloader than the 920C
#Ather.. one question .. why turning on Oem unlock ?? I read somewhere on forum that it is only when rooting device .. correct me if i'm wrong .
I flashed mine without turning on OEM unlock.
I came from XSG 5.1.1 UAE flashed with MID firmware . Everything went well and no problems with the device, battery, speed...etc

Hi,
is it possible to downgrade back to 5.1.1? I installed marshmallow from another thread, but in case i`d want to sell the phone, german language would be required, which isn`t there now after the update.

It was the cambodian rom i think from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-update-note-5-sm-n920c-to-android-t3317984
What does MID mean? Could you send me the link for the firmware? I`ve also lost some features in the S-Health app after the update - Stress and SpO2 measuring is gone...Thanks for the answer by the way

CAM = Cambodian Formware
MID = Middle eastern firmware (multi CSC, incls PAK, KSA, XSG etc)
what you need to do is get the latest XSG firmware from here : https://mega.nz/#!IREXRaLb!e_Jj4c3WLSLjnw9YZBFXxsyaoAuFGXTXA4r6vI-cUSQ
regarding your s health features, Samsung does not have propper medical license to allow spo2 and other tests done so thats why its limited to only HRM in the CAM firmware, flash any other ROM like MID or XSG and it'll work fine
PS. make sure you backup your data first!
I will use the Note N920C in UK, what Firmware should I use? XSG? XFE?
I received this update today via OTA.

Got this too but couldn't install it because my Bootloader is unlocked.
It says Fingerprint mismatch in recovery console log after it tries to install.
I forgot what exactly stopped it so i tried anyway LOL
Although mine is the XT1527 From Telus Canada CID 14
I captured the blur package too if someone knows how to patch it to install.
But.. i have Squid's kernel running and i am fairly certain that would over-write his kernel.
I posted here to let people know it's out.
I looked for a Firmware.zip for the version but couldn't find one.. yet.
Who ever is making them needs to do one up for the Telus version 24.71.4.en.ca
If anyone finds this post it !

Yes you can but you have to reflash whole stock firmware (the currently installed one) available for your device
It worked for me earlier when upgrading from 5.0.2 to 5.1.1 then to 6.0
If you OTA update your device in the state it is now (that's twrp+squid kernel) it might end up hard-bricking the device

Yup.. i posted the wrong thing earlier.. it has nothing to do with the bootloader.
I was running Marshmallow on my XT1527 with the unlocked bootloader and Squid's TWRP + Kernel and SuperSU + Custom Bootlogo / Animation.
So what i did was restore all the stuff stock then the OTA update installed fine.
I already had the firmware from when i downloaded it here a year ago.
THEN..
I thought hey know what ? Since i already made a TWRP back up.. lets use it !
After the OTA update was back on i started putting the custom stuff back on..
then i went into TWRP and restored only the DATA partition.. bingo had all my app's + settings still
Still running great and stable and yeah it was December 2016 patch level.
No idea what volte is but i think it was just an update for security.
I am currently fighting with rooting this update.
I just installed this
XT1527_SURNIA_RETCA-TELUS_6.0_MPI24.71-4_cid14_subsidy-TELUS_CFC.xml.zip
( OTA after reflash to 6.0 )
I am putting my info and trials HERE
Thanks for the info. Mine didn't pop up the update, but checked and there it is.

Which firmware version you are at? Which country? My phone was at firmware AQEB, I flashed AQF7 and later got update for AQG5. I'm from India, imported phone from UAE. Even my phone was stuck at May security update.
Same here I also have the AQEB firmware and i also imported from UAE and i too am from india . Do you know any other method rather than flashing.

Flashing using ODIN is the only method that I know of. It's very easy and I didn't even lose my data. Doesn't void warranty too. There are YouTube guides which can help you too.

It's a multi CSC package. Common firmware for both India and UAE.
Guys, I have the exact same problem as described. I too am stuck on firmware ending with AQEB. My CSC code is INS and CSC Version is G950FOXM1AQEB. Real confusion is to determine which firmware to patch. Can I patch Indian firmware or continue with UAE based firmware? Will it void warranty? How to ensure that I don't have to factory reset the device?

Probably you want to downgrade the bootlader. If the firmware is A310FXXU2**** you can't downgrade. If the firmware is A310FXXU3**** you can downgrade. https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-a3-/SM-A310F/SER/download/A310FXXU3BQD2/132023/

You can downgrade a firmware is the firmware has U3 bootloader. For example A310FXXu3CQI2. If the firmware is A310FXXu2**** you can't downgrade.

Samsung's downgrade lock is an insult to users. The blatant destruction of the device is a mockery of the user's intelligence and an abandonment of Samsung's reputation.
