Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) SM-J710F Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-J710F firmware?
J710FXXS6CTC1, released May 14, 2020 with Android 8.1. It is a security update on bootloader binary 6. The archive holds 20 official builds across 13 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy J7 (2016) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since May 2020, so Android 8.1 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-J710F builds in the archive run Android 6.0.1 to 8.1. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 8.1: J710FXXU6CSG2 (Jul 2019), 14 builds in total
- Android 6.0.1: J710FXXU6CSK2 (Dec 2019), 1 build in total
Can I downgrade the SM-J710F 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 6:
- Binary 6 — since Jul 2019
- Binary 5 — since Mar 2018
- Binary 4 — since Dec 2017
- Binary 3 — since Apr 2017
- Binary 2 — since Nov 2016
- Binary 1 — since Apr 2016
A phone already on binary 6 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 6 build. How to read a build number.
