Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ (SM-G928N0) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G928N0 firmware?
G928N0KOU2BQA1, released February 2, 2017 with Android 5.1.1. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 2. The archive holds 8 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 S6 edge+ still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since February 2017, 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.
Which Android versions did it get?
The SM-G928N0 builds in the archive run Android 5.1.1 to 6.0.1. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 6.0.1: G928N0KOU1BPC5 (Mar 2016), 4 builds in total
- Android 5.1.1: G928N0KOU1AOJ2 (Oct 2015), 3 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-G928N0 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 Jan 2017
- Binary 1 — since Oct 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.
