Still custom in stats - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So after rooting my device I decided I didnt like it, I backed it up and then went to settings and reset the device back to stock. I then restored it. For some reason the device still shows custom in stats and thus I cant check for updates. Any help is apreciated.
Thanks in advance

S4 doesnt update

Hi .please give me an explanation. I have got s4 with xxuamk firmware. But my country got the xxuema firmware already 20 days ago. I cant update my firmware to xxema through OTA. IN kies, it also says that your phone is up to date! I am gone mad. Please help me. Won't my s4 ever do an update through OTA?

connect to kies and see ---------- MDK(???)
any way, for Turkey mdk is the latest firmware http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9500&pcode=TUR#firmware

no, just download TUR, latest MEA and flash it with odin, and you will be good to receive any future update
also you can flash any other newest firmware for other country (India firmware is so fast in OTA)
