A guide to read the firmware details

[Svikas]

Hello Members, 

Today I'm sharing a firmware guide with you in which you can read and know about your Firmware information. 

Basic Firmware Information Firmware information consists of 3 information. Build version, CSC version, and baseband version.

Let's suppose that firmware search result is 

A720SKSU3BRK1/A720SSKC3BRK1/ A720NKOu3BRK1 

First one(A720SKSU3BRK1) refers build version, second one(A720SSKC3BRK1) refers CSC version,

last one(A720NKOU3BRK1) refers baseband version.

What do we know with firmware version? 

All we need to care is build version. We can analyze firmware with build version. 

Here is example build version: A720SKSU3BRK1 

Red text 

Red text (ex. U3) means bootloader version. 

Due to Samsung's security policy, you cannot downgrade from higher bootloader version firmware to lower bootloader version firmware.

Yellow text (ex. B) means Android OS version. If yellow text is updated, it means Android OS is gonna be or has been updated.
