Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G9008V) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G9008V firmware?
G9008VZMU1CRI1, released October 19, 2018 with Android 6.0.1. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 1. The archive holds 17 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 S5 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since October 2018, so Android 6.0.1 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
