What is the latest SM-J700K firmware?
J700KKKU1ARK2, released January 3, 2019 with Android 5.1.1. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 1. The archive holds 14 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 J7 still getting updates?
