    Samsung officially announced the Galaxy Grand Prime, the fourth handset in its affordable phablet lineup, for the Indian market yesterday. The Galaxy Grand Prime is the first Samsung handset to feature a 5-megapixel front-facing camera, and today, firmware for the device have begun showing up online. Based on the regions for which the firmware files are available, it looks like Samsung might be following previous tradition of only launching its Galaxy Grand devices in Asian and emerging markets. Also notable is that the Galaxy Grand Prime runs on Android 4.4.4 out of the box, though it remains to be seen if Samsung will find it eligible for an upgrade to Android L.

    For those unaware, these firmware files can be used to manually return to the stock software on the device, and for extracting things like wallpapers, ringtones, and inbuilt apps APKs. You can download firmware for the Galaxy Grand Prime from our firmware section; to get all firmware for the device, enter SM-G530 in the model number search field to get the full list.
