Samsung Galaxy Tab A(2016) SM-T580 Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-T580 firmware?
T580UES5CTL1, released December 24, 2020 with Android 8.1. It is a security update on bootloader binary 5. 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 A(2016) still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since December 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-T580 builds in the archive run Android 7 to 8.1. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 8.1: T580XXS5CTK1 (Nov 2020), 17 builds in total
- Android 7: T580XXS5CTJ2 (Nov 2020), 3 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-T580 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 5:
- Binary 5 — since Oct 2020
- Binary 4 — since Sep 2018
- Binary 3 — since Jun 2018
- Binary 2 — since Dec 2016
- Binary 1 — since May 2016
A phone already on binary 5 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 5 build. How to read a build number.
