I9505 EE United Kingdom, official http://www.hotfile.com/dl/223630332/b11f79b/I9505XXUAME2_I9505EVRAMDB_EVR.zip.html

Is that the latest ROM with camera update and option to move apps to SD :beer:

Just go to www.sammobile.com, they have every single stock firmware for every carrier.
I've downloaded the Official UK EE firmware from there.

How to change my country preferences to receive OTA updates earlier

Hi there,
My country is pakistan and therefore my OTA updates are received later than other countries, can you please help me how can i change my country preferences and so i can set it with UK or Germany to get updates earlier than PK?

As far as I know, the update will roll out based on your currently installed ROM. Inside the ROM, there is the CSC-part, which contains country-specific data.
The only way to change that would be to flash a different CSC to your phone. And this means root, loss of warranty, and so on.
But in this case, you can flash the desired firmware directly.
To answer your question: No

Csc: I9505BTUEMJ8
So is that UK? Once I returned back to stock, I flashed Nordic MGA rom with odin and then got OTA updates until 4.3. I have never changed csc on purpose. Does it change while flashing custom roms?

There is new firmware on sam mobile. G900MUBU1ANE2_G900MUUB1ANE4_ALE
That's the newest unbranded. I tested by flashing this last night, it appears to be identical to the shipping firmware on my factory unlocked G900M. There is no non-Samsung bloat and language selection seems identical..
LOL I was in between flashes anyway. Wanted to see if there was another OTA to 4.4.3 as some carriers have released it, but there is not yet.
It's the first version of the unbranded firmware I've been able to find actually..all the others seem to be branded to a carrier of some form.
Thanks for that, I will download that ROM

[Q] Lollipop: UK Note 4 Owners

Anyone in the UK got there OTA or Kies Lollipop update yet?
If you have flashed the German DBT & the CSC has changed will it change back to the UK CSC if flashed later with a UK Firmware?
If you have flashed how is it running?

Got a UK version on EE and flashed German rom with odin. Working well and nice and snappy. Had to re root it though and re install CM recovery.
I have a SIM free note 4 bought from Samsung estore, nothing on mine yet.

No update for me yet, however I think that Samsung will provide the network provider with the build then the network provider will add there bloatware and so on. I'm not 100% sure on this though.
Based on the CSC changing to a German CSC when I flashed the German DBT I'd have a guess and say flashing a UK ROM via Odin it would again change the CSC. Just a guess..
I have installed the German DBT and so far so good..

Hi mark, just wondering but I have a n910f UK version and I flashed the German lollipop build through Odin yesterday, although after giving it some time to boot it upgraded all of the pre-installed apps, the phone booted but all that showed up was a black screen and an empty notification bar, and kept rebooting over and over. anyone know what the problem could be?

Hi xjw1,
Not really knowledgeable enough to help much here. You don't say what you flashed the rom over. I flashed over bobcat rom and had already updated the bootloader too. I also did a full wipe in recovery before using odin. If you ask here you should get a response from an expert. Good luck. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/910f-official-lolipop-germany-dbt-t3029508

Yup you use the German update you get the German CSC, flash to a UK one you'll get a UK CSC. But there is almost no difference.You'd be better off sticking to this German one. Whenever an update is pushed you will get it first. If you flash a UK ROM you'll be back in the same situation you're in now waiting for an upgrade. Sometimes the UK providers are weeks/months behind the German updates.
If you want any new OTA updates as soon as Europe gets them stick with this ROM. That is unless you want the UK bloatware. I'm quite surprised the only German stuff is deletable. I bet the EE/Vodafone stuff won't be.
Edit: Actually I take that back, I just checked my CSC and my phone is showing as Polish OXA strangely enough. Well I'm pretty sure I'll still get the OTAs first. What I said should still count for German/Polish updates as they get them first so ..........(fingers crossed).
Flashed German update still retained my UK CSC
Like Mcshave said am better off with German update than EE bloatwares.

Well I've got the German Rom on now, so far all seems well. I haven't done a reset just a dirty flash.
So all you guys who have done the same to your UK N4, will you flash the BTU when it's released or stay on the German Rom?

Sorry Im new so I dont know where to find that certain page...
Anyways, I will flash a firmware from Germany so Ill see what happens. Not gonna bother you or anyone else on forum.
Yes, you should be ok to flash German firmware over your Serbian firmware, as they're both multi-CSC.
FYI - the latest Serbian firmware is here: https://updato.com/firmware-archive...&rpp=15&r=MSR,TOP&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1
You can edit the filter up the top to remove Serbia and add others, or just leave all and sort by date to get the newest firmware at the top.
