Samsung Galaxy A6 (SM-A600N) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-A600N firmware?
A600NKSS8CWA1, released January 19, 2023 with Android 10. It is a security update on bootloader binary 8. The archive holds 20 official builds across 4 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy A6 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since January 2023, 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-A600N 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 8:
- Binary 8 — since Mar 2022
- Binary 7 — since Sep 2021
- Binary 1 — since May 2018
A phone already on binary 8 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 8 build. How to read a build number.
