I9500XXUFNB3 is the latest firmware i.e. kitkat for india inu users but i am stuck on I9500XXUEMK9 and when i check software update it shows latest update installed
Download tge INU 4.4.2 firmware from sammobile n flash through odin. I had the same problem. Just be carefull about the instructions to flash. All the best. Or you can factory reset your device n then check for OTAs.

Baseband I9500XXUAMDK
SELinux Status - permissive

any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks in advance.

how did you flash it? orin or rom firmware thru cwm/twrp?
WARNING:
Could not flash my SM-N9005 with Firmware-update N9005XXUDMJ7 (PHN) with Odin 3.0.9..!!! I almost brick my phone, so
PLEASE BE CAREFUL!!!
(look at images to see what happend)
Luckily I found a working firmware, N9005XXUENA6_N9005PHNENA2_PHN that worked with Odin. :fingers-crossed:
Any tips on flashing firmware higher than 4.4.2 please let me know....
thanks
MJ7 is a JB firmware, and you have had a KK firmware on your phone before. as your bootloader has been updated as it says UDC start at the bottom. You can only flash KK roms now.

How do i know if its a JB or a KK rom? JB roms will be replaced by KK roms eventually....
Just check SamFirmware.com. It lists all firmwares and its versions. 4.3.x is JB, 4.4.x is KK

I recently bought Mobil Odin Pro and flashed stock 4.3 ROM and now my WiFi doesn't work. If I upgrade to 4.4 KK will that fix my problem or is it even possible with Mobil Odin?
I have a Sprint SPH-720
Android Version 4.3
Baseband Version L720VPUAMDC
Thank you in advance
When flashing full stock tar files you should really use odin from a PC. Your wifi doesn't work because the modem didn't flash. Your reporting mdc baseband and 4.3 software. There must be a mismatch there causing it.
Should I just flash modem or reflash the Rom?
I would replace the whole package to be safe.

Hi. I have the i9505 and my CSC is BTU. When I check on Sammobile if there is an update, it shows that the latest is XXUFNC4 which is available by Kies. But when I run Kies, it says my phone has the lastest update at XXUFNB8. Any idea why i'm not receiving the new update?
Thanks!
Download stock ROM at Sammobile.com and flash via 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
