Trying to find a stock Koodo MG1 4.2.2 firmware i337m - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Seems Hotfile went down so the links on Sammobile and the another post on the forum here are not working. Samsung-Updates doesn't have any MG1 firmwares at all, Koodo or otherwise. Cannot use Kies because it will just give me the new Knox-infected 4.3.
I don't need it immediately and may be able to wait for Sammobile to finish transferring their files to another host. Planning on flashing KangaKat 4.4 Google Edition so won't need the stock unless I need to use the warranty. Be nice to have though just in case.
Anyone know any other places to get firmwares?

Same Situation
I am also really in need of a MG1 firmware file for the i337m so I could return to stock. I've literally searched everywhere and I couldn't find it since Hotfile is shut down. Hopefully, someone has this file on their hard drive and could upload it. Thanks!

[Q] 4.3 firmware for FIDO

Hi there,
I really need the 4.3 firmware for my fido s4. I am running into some issues and want to revert back to stock rom. Unfortunately since HOTFILE is down, sammobile is not the option for me. If somebody has a copy of 4.3 or even 4.2 firmware for fido, could you please upload for me and give me the link? Would really appreciate it.
Thanks,

[Q] Can I upgrade to 4.4?

So when I first got my note I imediately used this guide to flash kitkat and completely ****ed it up, it just stuck on the Samsung n9005 screen.
This was a link to C4ETech's video called "Galaxy Note 3 - Samsung Official Kitkat 4.4.2 - How to Flash/Install" but I had to remove it.
I assumed it was something to do with the CSC code (mine being BTU) so I installed a BTU rom using this guide.
This was a link to TheSmokingAndroid's video called "HOW TO UNBRICK & UNROOT SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 3" but I had to remove it.
Now I want to install a kitkat rom preferably a stock one but there isn't one for BTU. So I looked at the custom roms as some support BTU but require the device to be on 4.4 already. How can I get onto 4.4 if every 4.4 rom requires a 4.4 phone? Will I have to wait until an official BTU update comes out?
I've attached a screenshot of my About Phone page (which doesn't have BTU anywhere, I don't get it).
I probably have the complete wrong end of the stick so sorry for wasting everyone's time but if you have a minute to help I'd really appreciate it.

Try *#1234# might come up there. Anyways, go over to Sammobile and grab any of the latest 4.4.2 KitKat ROMs for your device (9005) as you said. And it should work fine.
Advice: Wipe your phone, not compulsory but advisable. Cheers!
I have a canadian variant note 3 900w8 and i want to flash 4.4.2 as well but i was hoping to flash the t-mobile version as i have heard of issues with the 9005 rom compatibility, just wondering if anyone has had experience yet, or if it has been done.

Thanks for your help but I've already done that and the newest version I can get is 4.3 I'll just wait until my phone gets the update, Thanks anyway
I've managed to get onto 4.4 now by flashing a polish ROM after reading that they support BTU, I don't know how to delete this thread so I'm just letting everyone know my issue is resolved

If you want the ability to flash back to 4.3 from 4.4, install custom recovery and roms and keep your Knox 0x0, head over here and do some reading ( if you haven't been there already ).

I337M No wifi No sound No calls

Got this with 4.2.2 version, past owner said problems started after downgrade to version 4.2.2 coming from version 4.3
Some post say my solution is a 4 file firmware + pit file is required but I can't find it anywhere on the internet for my model, some others say I need to flash some Kernel and Modem but I don't know which files to use :crying:
I Don't know what else to do if you have a clue please comment :crying::crying:
Only thing I can think of is googling restore to stock with whatever model and carrier you use. There should be something. Read instructions carefully several times and then attempt.

[Q] Which modem should I use?

I am on my i9505g using a 4.4.4 GPE rom. I am struggling on finding the correct modem for my device. I am on Globe broadband in the Philippines and I'd appreciate if I was pointed to the correct modem download and a guide on how to install it.
I have checked sammobile.com and ended up with the I9505XXUGNG4. I unfortunately am not sure if I am downloading the correct file as it seems i am downloading a whole new ROM and not just a modem.
Your help would be much appreciated.

Please anyone?
If you have no issues with wifi, data or making calls, I suggest you just leave it. If it ain't broken, don't fix it. Saying that, you can find all of the modems here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2192025
The i9505g uses the same modems as the i9505.

AT&T SM-G950U Stock Firmware Location + Question

I've looked on updato and sammobile for stock ATT SM-G950U Firmware to no avail.
Can someone please point me in the right direction. I need to flash stock back on mine to get it up and running again.
Also, I'm thinking about downgrading to another phone from AT&T any suggestions on which phone I should go with?
Possibly one that's able to root.
Thanks in advance.

Any luck finding this version of FW?
Unlike other carriers, AT&T firmwares are not available via official channels, so Updato doesn't collect them. Your best bet is to search these forums and Google third-party websites for the exact baseband that you're looking for. Hopefully somebody has made it available for free download.
