Cannot download anything, please help me - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I live in France and I have a GT-I9500. I used to use custom ROMs but now I just want original KitKat.
I've downloaded, from Sammobile, a ROM for Turkey, it has french language.
The problem is that I cannot update or install any app, even with WIFI.
For example, I've started to download a 2.85Mo app 4 hours ago and it's still not 50%...
Please Help me, I can do nothing with my S4 now :crying:
Thanks,
Nadstaky

I have a S4 GT-I9508 model and i need to apply new firmware on them because the limitations of original firmware (google limitations). I've done the root with motochopper and everything went well, the device is rooted.

Any help is much appreciated.

I am having the exact same problem and can't use Google Play Store/Gmail on my China Mobile S4 variant (i9508). Did you manage to apply the firmware? Does anyone know if applying i9505 firmware will work? Thanks!
Maybe do a nandroid backup and then try and see?
Up, i got the same issue. ANy news ?

Hello,
No ideas about the storage, but I installed the Jellybam on the S4 and everything working smoothly. This is a temporary solution for me as the jellybam is clearly not made for S4 as we loose the camera and all other S4 gadget
If anybody now an official rom working well, i would be happy to try it :angel:
Rooting S4 GT-I9508
Hi there,
I recently bought the China Mobile 3G Version of the Samsung Galaxy S4 (S4 GT-I9508) here in Shanghai and quite obviously ran into a world without Google / Google apps / Google Play and so on. I kinda knew this would happen and the only reason I purchased this was to have 3G on my phone as I knew I could always root it later. Since you've already rooted your phone I suppose you would be the best person to ask these questions too:-
a) After you rooted your phone, are you still able to go on 3G ?
b) Any restrictions / limitations that you've noticed after you rooted it? I suppose Google Play and all the apps are fine and that you are able to download apps directly from the market?
c) Did you root the phone personally or Did you get someone in some store / etc to do it for you. I would rather prefer giving my phone to someone whose done this quite a few times than going ahead and experimenting on it. Any suggestions on whom/ where I could go to do it?
Thanks
Ben

Hello,
i bought GT-I9508 in china, too, and can use Google store, gmail, map now.
i've rooted my phone and installed TWRP recovery
and used "ROM Manager" to download and install gapps
then i've come to be able to use gapps.
but at this time, there was a problem that sometimes an error occurred which said "com.google.process.gapps has stopped",
so i've used "Titanium Backup" to uninstall gapps except store, gmail, google account (removed apps contained gapps but i don't use).
after that i've never seen the error but i don't know if this solution is really effective, so there still might be any error.
in addition, after i installed gapps using ROM Manager, i couldn't open ROM Manager any more, so i've uninstalled it, too.

Hello DUSKnenixs, thank you for your answer!!
So, I have some question... First, I'm noob in android world...
What are you meaning by "dwn mode" and "csc file" ?
What I have doing yesterday:
- first, I have installing TWRP by ODIN to come back in the factory setting
- after, I have installing the French ROM (GT-I9505 phone I9505XXUBMEA_I9505OXXBMF1_I9505XXUBMEA_HOME) by ODIN, but this step are not finnish, the status in ODIN was "FAIL" when the progress was about 95%
- after I have reboot the phone and let him start with this French ROM
I have not tested everything but the phone displays a Wifi default and asked to reboot. Even after reboot, it is impossible to activate the WIFI.
So, can you explain me, step by step what I have to do and with witch file & tool..?
Thank you by advance!!

But for the last one (I9508ZMUAMDE_I9508CHMAMDE_I9508ZMUAMDE_HOME.tar.md5) when I try to uncompress the file, I have the error :
"Unexpeted end of archive"
Can you upload it again please?
And I need these 2 other files:

Any i9505 AOSP rom will work on your Chinese SGS4 phone. The Chinese version, i9508 is basically i9505 with special software and no 4g. I am currently using an Android 4.3 rom on my i9508.
Hello all,
I have find a way to make my S4 completely in French (with French keyboard and dictionary) and with all Google App fully working without flash it with another ROM.
If someone are interested, please let me know and I'll explain step by step what i have done on my phone.

Can someone please do me a favour and download me the stock rom for S5 G900F

Hello,
Recently, something happened to my custom rom I had on my S5 (resurrection remix), it got corrupted or something. Well right now, im trying to install the stock rom on my S5. The thing is I am trying to download the one I need from sammobile.com
. Unfortunately, free downloads from sammobile have been turned off until February 25. You can only download if you have a premium plan
So, does anyone have the premium plan or something, please download this
sammobile[DOT]com/firmwares/galaxy-s5/SM-G900F/XSG/download/G900FXXS1CQD8/130526/
and upload it to somewhere I can download from, eg (mega, mediafire, google drive) . I really need this...
Thanks
Hey, if you just need a stock firmware and don't care about the region (I flashed random region firmware many many times and there was no problem with anything at all) you can get latest stock ROM from here.
