Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 (3G) SM-T531 Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-T531 firmware?
T531XXS1BRH1, released September 20, 2018 with Android 5.0.2. It is a security update on bootloader binary 1. 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 Tab 4 10.1 (3G) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since September 2018, so Android 5.0.2 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-T531 firmware?
Only to builds with the same bootloader binary (the Bit column) or higher. All decodable builds in the archive share binary 1:
- Binary 1 — since Apr 2014
