Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4 (SM-G390Y) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G390Y firmware?
G390YDXS2CTJ1, released January 8, 2021 with Android 9. It is a security update on bootloader binary 2. 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 Xcover 4 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since January 2021, so Android 9 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-G390Y builds in the archive run Android 7 to 9. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 9: G390YDXU2CSG2 (Jul 2019), 9 builds in total
- Android 8.1: G390YDXU2CSG2 (Jul 2019), 5 builds in total
- Android 7: G390YDXU2CSG2 (Jul 2019), 6 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-G390Y 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 Feb 2018
- Binary 1 — since Mar 2017
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.
