Samsung re-releases April 2020 security update for Galaxy M31, The first one bricked some units

Earlier last month, Samsung rolled out April 2020 security patch for Galaxy M31. Unfortunately, the update bricked some of the units and the company rolled back the OTA. Now, at the end of May, the South Korean smartphone maker re-releases the April security patch with a new build.

Last time, our unit installed the update without any hiccup but sadly not all users could say the same. Today, we received the same April 2020 security patch but with a different build number and lower size. Fortunately, this one too got downloaded and installed without any issue.

The new update for Galaxy M31 weighs 395.40 MB and comes with build number M315FXXU1ATD5. Whereas, the older one was of 541.26 MB and the build number was M315FXXU1ATD1.

As of now, we are not sure if the same OTA is being rolled out to users who did not update it earlier or never received the first one. Nevertheless, we can confirm that the new build is available for units, which successfully installed the previous April 2020 security patch update.

If you are our regular reader, you might be aware of Mi A3 and Mi A2 Lite update fiasco. Hence, we request you to be cautious of installing the update until positive feedback from more users.
