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).
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.
