Hi guys. I flashed the romanian firmware when I was on 4.2.2 and the I updated on ota and I don't know how I got to britain. Now I have 4.3 and I want to change from britain firmware to the romanian one because it recieves much faster ota updates and it actually is my country. I want to download the os from sammobile. The question is: will that void my waranty? I want to download from sammobile so it's official, but I am not sure about that if I flash the firmware my waranty will remain. Thank you very much!

I want to update from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2 and my phone is rooted so i have to download the new firmware manually
what I want to know is when I want to download the new fimware does the PDA & CSC have to be the same that I have on my phone currently or does the Country/Carrier is the only thing that has to be the same ?
Go to sammobile site and download your country firnware.

Hi,
I'm currently running jellybean 4.3
AP:N9005XXUBMJ1
CP:N9005XXUBMI6
CSC:N9005OXXBMJ1
I want to update to 4.4.2 Kitkat, but I'm not sure which firmware to download on sammobile site.
How do I check what country my firmware is from?
The firmware doesn't have any carrier branded stuff which I would like to keep.
Thanks in advance for any help!
Cheers
Use your countries unbranded fw

Install 'Phone INFO ★Samsung★' app and you will get all info you need.

Thanks. I just realised that I'm running Australia (which is where I'm from) XSA software. latest version is 4.3.... is it worth using a different countries firmware?
Is it risky?
I have root currently and my KNOX is 0x0 and I'd like to keep it that way.. I want to have 4.4.2 unbranded with root.
Any recommendation on which version I should download? and instructions for root?
does KINGO android root trip the KNOX counter?
Before few months I rooted my s4 i9505 and then I go back to stock rom , I flashed kitkat firmware via odin and everything work fine but all my friends received lolipop OTA but I dont so is it the problem in knox becuase it says KNOX void waranty 0x1 in download mode?

It's not Knox. Save yourself the hassle of waiting for an OTA by downloading and installing Android 5.0.1 through Odin.
I forgot to mention I bought my s4 sim free unbranded from shop so I thinked that I will get OTA first and I cant flash it via odin becuase my computer is broken

Croatia has gotten LP yeah. But i believe it is only for Croatia (TELE2) customers. Hang on tight it should arrive "soon".
If ya can't wait, head over to your buddies house. Download odin 310 and head over to sammobile.
follow flash instructions all over google.
@z1k4: There's always Mobile Odin as an option.
But for mobile odin root is needed and my phone is not rooted

Then I guess you're going to a friend's house and borrowing their computer.
If I flash lolipop firmware via odin I must do factory reset, i'm right? Which firmware shell I use my phone is i9505 ,bought it factory unlocked white?

You should make a backup of your data before starting, but it's not necessary to factory reset beforehand as the ROM install will do that automatically. If your S4 is unlocked, either of the unbranded 5.0.1 ROMs for the I9505 that were mentioned here on the forums will work for you. Both should include Croatian language support, but where you're on the European mainland rather than the UK, the DBT ROM might be a better choice than the BTU ROM.

Nothing is wrong, Sometimes the OTA just doesn't come through. I would check... http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N910F/ and flash the ROM you want via Odin. If not connect to the PC and run KIES to see if the update comes via that. Hope this helps.

Not an official ROM via Odin/kies, your warranty is safe.

Below you can find the link for 5.0.1 BOC3 official firmware (no waranty void when flashing official firmwares). It is the latest one uploaded for DBT Germany. I would recommend flashing this as OTA's are usually faster on this CSC version. Best of luck and hope you enjoy the sweetness of lollipop
