Samsung is rolling out a new software update for the Galaxy J4 Core smartphone in Asia. The latest update brings in the month old January 2020 Android security patch to the device. Read on to find out everything about this new Galaxy J4 Core update.
The latest Galaxy J4 Core update bumps up the software build version to J410FXXU2ATA1, and its firmware is about 880 MB in size. However, the OTA update size may vary depending on the region. The update is still based on the old Android 9 Pie OS and brings security enhancements to the device. The Galaxy J4 Core is not in line to receive the Android 10 OS upgrade, as the smartphone has previously got one OS update.
According to Google’s Android security bulletin, the new security patch primarily fixes a local malicious application on the device. This flaw could have enabled user interaction requirements to gain access to additional permissions. The update also fixes an exploit that could have led to remote information exposure of the smartphone.
The Galaxy J4 Core OTA update is rolling out incrementally, so it will take a while before reaching all units gradually. Users will get a notification to download the update. Alternatively, the update can also be checked by going to Settings > Software Update menu.
