Samsung SM-A705U Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-A705U firmware?
A705USQU3DXE1, released June 5, 2024 with Android 11. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 3. The archive holds 18 official builds across 1 region (CSC).
Is the Samsung SM-A705U still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since June 2024, so Android 11 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-A705U builds in the archive run Android 9 to 11. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 11: A705USQU1DUC3 (Mar 2021), 10 builds in total
- Android 10: A705USQU1BTC5 (Mar 2020), 6 builds in total
- Android 9: A705USQU1ASJ3 (Oct 2019), 2 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-A705U 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 3:
- Binary 3 — since May 2023
- Binary 2 — since Mar 2022
- Binary 1 — since Oct 2019
A phone already on binary 3 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 3 build. How to read a build number.
