Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T815C) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-T815C firmware?
T815CZSS3CTJ3, released December 1, 2020 with Android 7. It is a security update on bootloader binary 3. The archive holds 20 official builds across 3 regions (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since December 2020, so Android 7 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-T815C builds in the archive run Android 5.0.2 to 7. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 7: T815CZSU2CQL2 (Dec 2017), 14 builds in total
- Android 6.0.1: T815CZSU2BQA2 (Jan 2017), 3 builds in total
- Android 5.0.2: T815CZCU3CRK1 (Feb 2019), 1 build in total
Can I downgrade the SM-T815C 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 Dec 2016
- Binary 2 — since Nov 2015
- Binary 1 — since Jul 2015
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.
