hello guys, i bought a galaxy s4 BE and i am first owner and opened seal myself, evrything is black and ahve the black back faux leather battery cover like the note 3. so the thing is it booted to regular s4 firmware without any new boot sound, wallpapers of blackedition nor the ringtones. it made an update to 4.4.2 so i left it to find also no new stuff, so i downloaded this indian black edition firmware as i cant roll back to 4.3 anymore and flashed it only to find the same stuff again, did a factory reset and cleared cache, all the same.
i used the android kitchen to extract system.img and look into it i found that it was just normal firmware from inside without and new wallpapers or ringotens
can anybody provide some help or advice please? how come the firmware that has blackedition on it and i9500Y in the CSC doesnt have the BE stuff, im really annoyed.

U can flash it to 4.4.2 BE SW, or 4.4.2 Normal SW
Dont try to put 4.3 SW on it
It seems you have now 4.4.2 Normal SW

N9005 is unlock international version of Note 3.
you can just grab the firmware from samfirmware.com. If you prefer your poland firmware, you can grab the poland one. Otherwise, you can just flash any other firmware, as long as for N9005, and it is not Taiwan / Hongkong region
Flash it through ODIN. at the samfirmware.com there's a guide on how to flash as well.
The poland 4.4.2 latest is still :
Country: Poland

When I try to downgrade using ODIN and sammobile Firmware, the device wont launch anymore - boot loop.
I have the proper files (incl. PIT, CSC, MODEM, etc.) of the desired version officially and directly from Samsung for my region.
When I try to downgrade using ODIN and official Samsung Firmware, the device is very laggy, does not recognize my SIM Card and the Basebandversion and IMEI is 'Unknown'.
Is this possible at all? The phone is not yet rooted or altered in any way.
Thanks
