Surprise! Verizon's Note 5 nabs the first Android 6.0 Marshmallow carrier update, here's the changelog

Back in December, we got a tip depicting a new Android update roadmap for Samsung devices that moved the Note 5 from the previously rumored Q4 2015 update queue for Marshmallow, to Q1 2016. Afterwards, Samsung announced an official beta testing program for Marshmallow on the AT&T Galaxy S6 edge (SM-G925A), AT&T Galaxy Note 5 (SM-N920A), Verizon Galaxy S6 edge (SM-G925V), and Verizon Galaxy S6 edge+ (SM-G928V).

Fast forward a couple of weeks, and it is actually Note 5 users on Verizon who will be the lucky first souls to own a top-shelf Samsung on a US carrier, and get the newest Android plus all the goods Samsung wrapped up, like a new browser or the Cross App multitasking. The update has a software version of MMB29K.N920VVRU2BPB2, and brings all the Marshmallow features like the battery-saving Doze mode, or the ability to swap things like the stock dialer with a third-party app. Verizon has added a few twists of its own like enabling Wi-Fi Calling and YouTube Live Broadcast so that you can stream whatever is around you on your channel.
