Thanks guardian10.
I went to settings - about device - software update and it downloaded an update and installed it and optimized apps. But, when I look at about device it still shows version 5.1.1.
I restarted the tablet and it still shows version 5.1.1.
I tried software update again but it says it is up to date.
Any ideas?
Thanks
@rick fredricksen That is very odd. I do not know anything beyond that. I have not worked on Android tablets before. I mostly work with Apple products. Are you sure it is a Galaxy Tab A6?
yes it is a Galaxy Tab A6
Try updating again, if that moves you up try again until it doesn't say an update is available. OTA updates tend to go a step at a time not all in one great leap... yes it s weird.
I have the same tablet; mine was updated a while ago to ANDROID 8.1.0

The Samsumg Tab 6A has a small porblem If you have the SM-T280 it cannot be updated or even rooted. Check your model number.
