Hey guys, quick question.
1) Are there other roms currently available for the N9005 that are not stock based? (Something closer to stock like CM)
2) If not, where can I get the original rom from Samsung (north america based) without any modifications?
I installed the echo rom and it won't recognize my handwriting and it keeps trying to do mandarin(?). I have changed the all the setting and still get that language, also, in my magazine, all I get is the Asian version of the news even though I set it for the USA.

You can get stock rom here www.sammobile.com
Hi,
The links to download the stock rom on Sammobile are unavaible because Hotfile is closed to copyright violation.
I search a miror link, look my thread

Hi folks, I wanna update my device to I9505XXUBMEA (for App-to-SD), but don't know how to exactly. I want to do it in the most legal way, without erasing anything (Apps, Data, Settings etc.) on my S4.. So can someone tell & show me the best way how to do this please?
Btw I'm from the Netherlands and got my phone here, so I don't know if I can use or need the Stock Firmware and/or Kernel File from Germany's XXUBMEA update and if it's compatible without bricking my phone or losing data, because I havn't seen any I9505XXUBMEA update for my country yet..
Thank you in advance.

No, nothing will be deleted unless you do a factory reset.

Ohh thank God.. i seriously was doubting now to continue any further, since I would've to Re-apply all setting and download all Apps and Data once again.. :good:
Now, I dont know what the Kernel is used for.. but do I need to get that also? After I have the 1.6 GB sized Stock Firmware (aka ROM right?), I can start installing?
I'm downloading I9505XXUBMF8 (first one on the list, most recent one) than from the Official Rom Collection (Thread).
I've got myself Odin also (File name: AndroidJinn.Com.Odin307, Size: 1,15 MB) like you said. (Please confirm if its the right one)
If it's not to much asked, could you write within a few sentences, the steps on how to get trough the installation and what I need to do before starting, like: do I need to backup anything or does my phone have to be USB plugged to my pc the whole time etc.?

It depends on the service center. Some dont look to csc if it is stock. And some look. Any way you can flash your original firmware back.

If it can accept another sim so it is unbranded firmware.
Any way, you can flash any stock for your I9505. Kernel is included in the firmware, no need tp flash it seperately

Can someone tell me why again XXUBMF8 is better than XXUBMEA?
I mean what are the differences compared to one another,
the only thing I know is that they both support App-2-Sd.
Which is actually ofcourse the most important thing to know,
but what other <better improved> features does the XXUBMF8 (DBT) have than XXUBMEA (DBT)?
And how are overall user experiences with both versions?
can anyone point me in the right direction of a stock 4.3 rom / firmware for i9505? i can only find terafile hosted ones which you cant download as they exceed 1GB

There is no returning to 4.3 once you have upgraded your bootloader to 4.4.2

You mentioned nogo to 4.3 due to bootloader however i dindt check the bootloader option in odin (see screenshot). Should i tick that as well next time?
Well there is some debate as to if you should check the bootloader or not.
With the leaked Polish firmware it came in seperate files. You needed to check to upgrade the Bootloader.
With the XEO single .zip firmware you don't need to check it as it upgrades automatically - plenty agree with this. -- There is a few people who say that by not checking it, it hasn't upgraded for them and some just recommend you check it for good luck sake.

MEGA is country based per account. So if I upload to my MEGA it comes from a UK Server which is slow to Asia/America etc, trick is to set up your own MEGA account, and then import it from the download MEGA link and it'll switch to a server in your country and you'll get faster download speeds

Yes, do hard reset and when the phone is turned on on the first screen it will ask you what Region/Language you wish to use!!!
The phone does not have Polish. I reset it and it will miraculously show up in the drop down list? Please spare me such comments.

First of all you should be more polite when expecting help. Secondly, any generic stock ROM (European) comes with full language pack. And last, flash BTU, DBT or XEO ROM. Any of them contains Polish language pack.
