Samsung Galaxy J4 (SM-J400F) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-J400F firmware?
J400FXXS9CVE2, released November 23, 2022 with Android 10. It is a security update on bootloader binary 9. The archive holds 20 official builds across 19 regions (CSC).
Is the Samsung Galaxy J4 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since November 2022, so Android 10 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
Can I downgrade the SM-J400F firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 1 to 9:
- Binary 9 — since May 2022
- Binary 2 — since Jul 2018
- Binary 1 — since May 2018
A phone already on binary 9 rejects builds with a lower binary in Odin ("SW REV CHECK FAIL"), so it can go back to an earlier Android version only if that version has a binary 9 build. How to read a build number.
