    Frequently Asked Questions

    J250GDXU2ARD3 is Android 7.1.1 (Nougat) firmware for Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro, released for Australia (OPP, TLP, VAP, XSA), Philippines (GLB, SMA, XTC), Taiwan (BRI). Samsung built it on 2018-04-19.

    No. A newer build for SM-J250G is available: J250GDXU3AUG1. Install it instead of J250GDXU2ARD3 unless you need this exact version. The previous build was J250GDXU1ARB3.

    Download the package for your region (CSC) and unzip it. In Odin, load each file into the slot with the same name: BL, AP, CP (if the package has one) and CSC, or HOME_CSC to keep your data. Odin checks the built-in checksum of every .tar.md5 file before flashing. The Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro must be on bootloader binary 2 or lower.

    This build uses bootloader binary 2. It can be flashed on a Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro running binary 2 or lower; if the device already has a higher binary, Odin stops with "SW REV CHECK FAIL". 1 other build of this model uses the same binary, so you can switch between them in both directions.
