Sprint has released a new software update for the Galaxy Note 4 today, and as you can see in the picture below, the update is not for Android 5.1 Lollipop, rather, it's just a simple update that adds Factory Reset Protection, a feature that was removed from the initial Lollipop build that was released for Samsung's devices.
Originally, the feature was part of Lollipop, but for some unknown reasons, it wasn't included in the Lollipop update that was rolled out to Galaxy Note 4, which is why Sprint is rolling it to the device through another update.
Factory Reset Protection, as the name suggests, is a feature that adds an extra layer of protection before the device can wiped itself clean. When the feature is enabled, the device can’t wiped itself clean without the user’s passkey. However, due to this, thieves will not be able to wipe stolen devices in other to sell them. The update has software number: N910PVPU2BOE1 and it’s now being rolled out.
