Samsung Galaxy A35 5G (SM-S356V) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-S356V firmware?
S356VUDUDEZJ2, released October 9, 2026 with Android 17. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 13. The archive holds 20 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 A35 5G still getting updates?
Yes. The newest build is from October 2026, and 2 of 2 regions already have a build from that month; the rest usually follow within a few weeks.
Which Android versions did it get?
The SM-S356V builds in the archive run Android 15 to 17. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 17: S356VUDUDEZJ2 (Oct 2026), 2 builds in total
- Android 16: S356VUDU7CYI8 (Sep 2025), 16 builds in total
- Android 15: S356VUDS7BYG1 (Jul 2025), 2 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-S356V firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. In the archive the binary of this model rose from 7 to 13:
- Binary 13 — since Aug 2026
- Binary 12 — since Jul 2026
- Binary 11 — since Apr 2026
- Binary 10 — since Feb 2026
- Binary 9 — since Jan 2026
- Binary 8 — since Nov 2025
- Binary 7 — since Jul 2025
A phone already on binary 13 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 13 build. How to read a build number.
