Galaxy Note 4 is in the que to get Android 6.0 Marshmallow, but having a look on Samsung’s track record of updating the devices, we do not expect this update to come out anytime soon. While we are waiting for the official update to reach us out, the unofficial CyanogenMod 13.0 Android 6.0 Marshmallow has already made its way. Android 6.0 Marshmallow CyanogenMod 13 custom ROM is available for Galaxy Note 4 N910F and N910G. RIL and some other features are working fine on this ROM, but there’s a list of features that isn’t going to function at this time.

Keeping the bugs in view, this ROM may not be kept as a daily driver. You may only proceed to flash it on your Galaxy Note 4 if you’re familiar with custom ROMs and you can also handle any mishaps that may occur after flashing this custom ROM.
