Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) SM-A510Y Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-A510Y firmware?
A510YZTU5BVG2, released August 9, 2022 with Android 6.0.1. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 5. The archive holds 20 official builds across 9 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy A5 (2016) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since August 2022, so Android 7 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
Which Android versions did it get?
The SM-A510Y builds in the archive run Android 6.0.1 to 7. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 7: A510YDOS7CSG2 (Jul 2019), 5 builds in total
- Android 6.0.1: A510YDOS7CSG2 (Jul 2019), 13 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-A510Y 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 7:
- Binary 7 — since Apr 2019
- Binary 6 — since Aug 2018
- Binary 5 — since Jan 2018
- Binary 4 — since Mar 2017
- Binary 3 — since Sep 2016
- Binary 2 — since Mar 2016
- Binary 1 — since Dec 2015
A phone already on binary 7 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 7 build. How to read a build number.
