Samsung SM-A260G Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-A260G firmware?
A260GDDSCAUJ1, released November 3, 2021 with Android 8.1. It is a security update on bootloader binary 12. The archive holds 20 official builds across 12 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung SM-A260G 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-A260G firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 11 to 12:
- Binary 12 — since Oct 2021
- Binary 11 — since Jun 2021
A phone already on binary 12 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 12 build. How to read a build number.
