Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T817) Firmware

Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T817) Firmware Overview

What is the latest SM-T817 firmware?

T817JVU2CRB1, released April 3, 2018 with Android 7. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 2. The archive holds 15 official builds across 1 region (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 April 2018, 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-T817 builds in the archive run Android 5.0.2 to 7. The earliest build we have for each version:

• Android 7: T817JVU2CQCL (Mar 2017), 6 builds in total
• Android 6.0.1: T817JVU2BPE2 (May 2016), 4 builds in total
• Android 5.0.2: T817JVU1AOG5 (Jul 2015), 4 builds in total

Can I downgrade the SM-T817 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 2:

• Binary 2 — since Oct 2015
• Binary 1 — since Jul 2015

A phone already on binary 2 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 2 build. How to read a build number.
