Samsung Galaxy J4 (SM-J400F) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-J400F firmware?
J400FXXS9CVE2, released November 23, 2022 with Android 10. It is a security update on bootloader binary 9. The archive holds 20 official builds across 19 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy J4 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since November 2022, so Android 10 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-J400F 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 9:
- Binary 9 — since May 2022
- Binary 2 — since Jul 2018
- Binary 1 — since May 2018
A phone already on binary 9 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 9 build. How to read a build number.
