Try installing Samsung Kies in you mobile before connecting to Kies on your laptop this might work.

Hi,
I have an I9500 S4 international version.
I got a notification to update my phone and when I try to update FOTA it connects and says software is upto date.
Even if I connect with kies and it still says that it is upto date but its really the old build that I have.
Kies says :
current version: PDA:MDK / PHONE:MDK / CSC:MDK
new version: PDA:MDK / PHONE:MDK / CSC:MDK
Once it showed their is a new update and I tried to update but had to cancel the software download after that onwards it not showing the new update version :crying:, I even tired re-installing kies.
What can I do to update my firmware ?
Thanks in advance.

Forget kies and ota. Flash via odin. You will always get the earliest updates when flashing via odin no matter which region your phone is from.

latest version for Saudi Arabia KSA is MEA, it is weird, it must take the ota update. sure you are not rooted.
try wiping data and cache via recovery and see if it will take the ota.
if not you can flash (KSA) MEA firmware with Odin

Hi. you using your phone in india doesn't mean that you can get the indian update for panama (TPA) firmware. you can wait until the panama update rolls out or you can download any firmware you want from sammobile and flash it with odin.
Hi,
I have the same problem. My galaxy s4 i9505 is from UK, i think is unlock because and i'm using in Portugal with vodafone and have the same problem, kies and ota doesn't recognise the update to the galaxy s4.

Hi,
What model of phone do you have? The LTE SM-N9005? If so (and I hope someone could either second this or correct me if i'm wrong) I believe you could flash via odin (and you do not need to be rooted to do this) the lollipop update that O2 has. 5.0 is available for the UK via the sammobile website, so if the basebands remain the same and the phone is the same model, I believe you could just download the 5.0 update from sammobile and flash it via odin.
Since you would be flashing an official version of sammy's rom, you won't need to be rooted, nor have a custom recovery.
Cheers

so, you are using the sm-n9005, and the firmware u have is the same one as the firmware that the 02 UK version runs in 4.4.2.
Unless I'm mistaken, and if anyone sees I am please correct me, you could flash the 5.0 version with odin for o2 UK. I don't see why it wouldn't work, since it seems you have the same phone and firmware currently in 4.4.2
cheers

Your device is using of UK (with CSC: BTU). It still without Lollipop update. I recommend don't flash via ODIN any firmware and wait for future updates (via OTA) if you aren't rooted.
