I'm from Belgium me and my friend bought the s4 i9505(first edition) last year.
I experimented with lots of roms but whenever i try to go back to an official rom, my friend still gets updates whenever he checks for it and i never do.
So i was wondering if someone could point me to the actual rom i need.
Here's a screenshot of my friends still original rom info.

Soo you need a stock rom here are some stock roms:
First: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9505 - A lot of people say to me this is not the official page for samsung roms but for me was so good
Second: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=GT-I9505&pcode=0#firmware - This is the official one
I recommend you to use the latest version 4.4.2

If you wanna receive OTA updates too:
1. Install Kies (for android 4.2.2) or Kies 3 (android 4.3 and android 4.4.2)
2. Conect ur device to ur computer.
3. Take a look your CSC (country code) -> They are always 3 letters. (pic 1 attached)
4. You can now close Kies/3.
5. Go to Sammobile.com and look for the correct CSC (You can live in Belgium but this no means ur phone is builded there) -> For example: My phone is german and conecting it to Kies 3 appears DBT code. I go to Sammobile.com and download the correct firmware for my device (Pic 2)
6. Remember: Don't download "Black EDITION" firmware if your phone isnt that one.
7. Flash the firmware through ODIN.
8. Enjoy
hey,
i'm also from belgium at sammobile you have to search for the rom from luxemburg .
In belgium is the original rom from the country luxemburg

1) Is there any good reason, why i should upgrade my tab.?
2) My tab is rootet with z4root app, and think i will loose my root if i upgrade. ?
THx in advance.
if you havent already moved to the JMI firmware from one of the chefs, you dont need this update. Stay away from it as it may contain a locked bootloader. just go to the tab android dev forum and install any one of the JMI packages.
not exactly sure what version i got on my phone.
Havent installed any custom rom/kernels
here what its says
current version PDA:JJ3 / PHONE:JID / CSC:JJ2 (NEE)
Wants to install PDA:JMI / PHONE:JMA / CSC:JM4 (NEE)
Pretty novice on this forum, so dont know whats it all means.
have tried to figure out what version of tab i got, gsm or CDMA, and what rom/ kernels i could install.
The galaxy tab department in xda forum is a little konfusing to find info.
Maybe somebody have the answers what all this means.
and yes have tryed the search button many times.

Well , you are from Scandinavia. Sweden or something lijke that.. But you willhave the GSM-Tab. If you like the tab as it is, just do the upgrade. If you want to root and flash custom roms like i.e. the Roto-hammer. You need to root and flash those. The latest build is JMI. The custom-roms are already based on the JMI. In the development-topic are very good guides howto.
Thx for reply
Will try out flashing with odin, just came from Htc desire so its a little different system, flashing tab, hope there will come an recovery rom out so it will be more easyer installing new roms.
Ps not far from sweden . Im Danish, but bought tab in Norway
2) My tab is rootet with z4root app, and think i will loose my root if i upgrade. ?
FWIW, I accepted the Sprint OTA update last week and 1.) lost root, 2.) haven't been able to get it back with Z4Root. If I can ever get it back, I'll stay away from any future updates from the provider.
I had a look at the Roto JMI thread and it seems his version has some problems with the english dictionary. I wonder if these issues are fixed in the version offered by Kies. I really would like to keep my root access, but I need a rom which is as stable as possible because I need my tab for work.
At the moment I am still using the last official version which was offered by Kies (PK5?). I'm unsure if I should flash roto's rom or the new Kies version. What do you think guys?

Hi,
I have been installing various ROM's on my S3 but now want return everything back to how it was. I have used triangle away and odin to restore the firmware I had from a while back however it does not have any of the Three UK branding or apps.
Does anyone have the files I need to restore the S3 with UK three branding and that will software update officially.

Also when connecting to Kies it say's:-
Your device's current firmware version is not supported to update firmware via kies.
Current firmware version: PDA:LH3 / PHONE:LH1 / SCS:LH2 (KOR)

go to http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9500 and look at the 3 letter region code for your country and download the stock rom. For e.g.
Algeria --> TMC
Iran --> THR

Hello,
I bought my Note3 in a spanish online store and i use it in France.
I'm still in 4.3 because the upgrade doesn't show up OTA or on KIES, they both say that I have the latest version.
It seems that the upgrade is available in these 2 countries, so I don't really understant why I can't upgrade ?
I have attached a screen of my "About device" section if it can helps.
Thank you for your help.

It depends on your CSC.
Please use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app to check for your CSC first, and then search on the sammobile.com if there is an update for your CSC.
Download link in my signature.
If not buying from Samsung authorized retailers with its original warranty, u may want to check ur system status. Whether modified or official. And u better go to download mode as well to check the knox flag status
Happened to my friend new note N9005.
Status modified, knox 0x1.
And the phone can't get OTA.
Sent from N9005 NC2 ROM.
Thank you for your answers.
I've downloaded the application, I have still full knox warrantly ((0x0), but I have found that my phone comes from Austria.
AP & CP : N9005XXUDMJ7
CSC : N9005ATODMJ4
Apparently, the kitkat update will not come soon for this country, so I will have to flash the latest french XEF rom.
Thank you, problem solved
Just thought I'd add, Kies 3 lost support of updating the Note 3 after the new bootloader came out on JB MJ1... Samsung have, in their infinite wisdom, NOT fixed support for this. If anything goes wrong with a flash or OTA then you are stuck using ODIN to fix... The whole "Rmergency Firmware Recovery" thing is just a load o crap....

U don't need to depend on ota or kies. Just upgrade through ODIN.
Sometimes wait for OTA will make u fèel so much envy to others who got it alrd.
And flash through ODIN is much better.

Can somebody help me please?
I still haven't got the Pie OTA and I don't know what UK ROM I would need to flash. I haven't flashed a phone for years and haven't used odin since the galaxy s3
Screenshots from the phone INFO app are below. I'm hoping somebody can point me in the right direct of the correct firmware and an odin guide.

I usually use updato.com for firmware downloads. There are a few others like sammobile.
You can use search filters to find your device model, android version, region, carrier etc
According to your first screen shot your csc is XEU
Second screen shot - latest firmware - G950FXXS4DCS2 is latest firmware for your device so when searching look for these 2 things and also the date as there may be a more recent version.
Use latest Odin version 3.13.1 + latest Samsung drivers.
https://samsungodin.com/
Then have a look at this thread for a quick guide to flashing firmware.

You should be right as the updates do change there name to reflect date of issue, version no etc. So CRIA is an older version of firmware than DCS2. So the next update will be called something else.
