Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Exynos) SM-N900 Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-N900 firmware?
N900XXSEBRH3, released December 19, 2018 with Android 5. It is a security update on bootloader binary 14. The archive holds 20 official builds across 20 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (Exynos) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since December 2018, so Android 5 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-N900 firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. All decodable builds in the archive share binary 14:
- Binary 14 — since Jan 2015
