Samsung SM-A260F Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-A260F firmware?
A260FXXSEAUJ2, released November 23, 2021 with Android 8.1. It is a security update on bootloader binary 14. The archive holds 20 official builds across 17 regions (CSC).
Is the Samsung SM-A260F still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since November 2021, so Android 8.1 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-A260F firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 13 to 14:
- Binary 14 — since Oct 2021
- Binary 13 — since Jul 2021
A phone already on binary 14 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 14 build. How to read a build number.
