Samsung Galaxy CORE Prime (SM-G360FY) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G360FY firmware?
G360FYXXS2BRI1, released November 29, 2018 with Android 5.0.2. It is a security update on bootloader binary 2. The archive holds 7 official builds across 1 region (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy CORE Prime still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since November 2018, so Android 5.0.2 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-G360FY builds in the archive run Android 4.4.4 to 5.0.2. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 5.0.2: G360FYXXU2BOI7 (Sep 2015), 6 builds in total
- Android 4.4.4: G360FYXXU1AOD1 (Apr 2015), 1 build in total
Can I downgrade the SM-G360FY 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 2:
- Binary 2 — since Sep 2015
- Binary 1 — since Apr 2015
A phone already on binary 2 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 2 build. How to read a build number.
