Samsung SM-G611K Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G611K firmware?
G611KKKU3CUD2, released May 24, 2021 with Android 9. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 3. The archive holds 9 official builds across 1 region (CSC).
Is the Samsung SM-G611K still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since May 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-G611K builds in the archive run Android 8.1 to 9. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 9: G611KKKU1CSE3 (May 2019), 6 builds in total
- Android 8.1: G611KKKU1BRK6 (Nov 2018), 1 build in total
Can I downgrade the SM-G611K 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 Apr 2021
- Binary 2 — since Dec 2019
- Binary 1 — since Nov 2018
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.
