Hello,
i recently bought an Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 in Germany and found out that it is a Baltic model with the XXUFNC4 Firmware installed.
Can i install the official German XXUGNF1 Firmware on this model with Odin?
Sorry if i missed something but im totally new to Samsung devices
Thanks in advance
Sure u can. As long as the firmware is for I9505.
Mine was a Vodafone Austrailia model which does not have a 4.4.2 update, so i updates mine using ODIN using firmware of the Baltic region.

no you can't
firmwares differ from country to country.
radio and modem firmware is different.
BTW if you are rooted delete/uninstall all the bloatware from your device simple.
Hi,
I stay in India and own a Galaxy S4 I9505 device, but this device was not originally launched in India.
Now since the Official Lollipop update has been released for this model, I am wondering which firmware should I flash on my device (I mean which country's firmware should I pick?)
I know various touchwiz based Lollipop roms are already available for this device. But I want to flash the Stock Firmware coz I am facing an issue and I think flashing the original firmware will probably get me out of it!
Only preference for me is the English language... ?? Kindly help !
Thank you.
You can flash all of them. It doesn't matter.
Flash the firmware from your carrier and country.
Hi friends, I'm a beginner of this forum.
I am using samsung s3 neo i9300i device running in android 4.4.4. The baseband version is i9300ixxuboi1.
On last month I rooted this device with TWRP recovery file. Now I want to unroot my device. For that purpose, I searched the samsung web but I couldn't find the actual baseband version Stock Rom file. If I flash other s3 neo's baseband Firmware, instead of exact version, is it occur any damage?
Give solution. .... Help me. ......
Do you mean you want original firmware from sammobile? Probably the firmware is updated that's why you won't get the exact version. Just look for a firmware for your model and for you region and flash.

I have tried so many firmwares with different regions and basebands. And i haven't have any problem.
Just try to download a firmware for your region ( for your country or for neighbourhood countries ) and flash it through odin.
I had s4(4.4.2) rooted now I have completely removed the root by flashing stock firmware which I got from this post. I downloaded the turkey 4.4.2 listed under GT-I9500 firmwares although I am in india. Now when I try to update trough settings > software update, I I get msg "The latest updates have already been installed.". So is it happening because I flashed turkey's firmware, pls help me how to get lollipop update.
Flash India (INU) or India (INS) firmware. Either should work, but using the INS CSC is probably best, as that apparently is for unlocked devices. The reason you're not getting an update is the phone is not in the same region as the firmware installed on it.
Stock firmware for the gt-i9500 is here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/GT-I9500/INS/
@audit13: Already covered that.
My bad, I didn't click on the links
