Samsung SM-J337W Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-J337W firmware?
J337WVLS8BVA1, released March 2, 2022 with Android 9. It is a security update on bootloader binary 8. The archive holds 20 official builds across 16 regions (CSC).
Is the Samsung SM-J337W still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since March 2022, so Android 9 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
Can I downgrade the SM-J337W firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 7 to 8:
- Binary 8 — since Jan 2022
- Binary 7 — since Aug 2021
A phone already on binary 8 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 8 build. How to read a build number.
