Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 (SM-T817P) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-T817P firmware?
T817PVPU2CQE7, released June 29, 2017 with Android 7. It is a feature update on bootloader binary 2. The archive holds 9 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 Tab S2 still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since June 2017, 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-T817P builds in the archive run Android 5.1.1 to 7. The earliest build we have for each version:
- Android 7: T817PVPU2CQE7 (May 2017), 2 builds in total
- Android 6.0.1: T817PVPU2BPE1 (May 2016), 3 builds in total
- Android 5.1.1: T817PVPU1AOH6 (Aug 2015), 3 builds in total
Can I downgrade the SM-T817P 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 Dec 2015
- Binary 1 — since Aug 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.
