Samsung Galaxy Note 7 (SM-N9300) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-N9300 firmware?
N9300ZCU2BPJ4, released October 10, 2016 with Android 6.0.1. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 2. The archive holds 12 official builds across 2 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since October 2016, so Android 6.0.1 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-N9300 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 3:
- Binary 3 — since Feb 2017
- Binary 2 — since Sep 2016
- Binary 1 — since Jul 2016
A phone already on binary 3 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 3 build. How to read a build number.
