and my question was whats the difference b/w old firmwares and this one ??

SM-N9005 International Note 3 4.4.2

Hey guys.
Got an N9005 and just getting really impatient waiting for the Australian XSA rom to be released. It's so close I'm sure but, was wondering if I could perhaps flash a Poland firmware for now then flash an Australian one when it's released with no problems?
In my knowledge, a few years of flashing roms etc, it seems this would update everything including my bootloader, which is fine. Heard also that you cannot go back to any previous version of android after this procedure. Which I find weird, as what if I flashed a 4.3 firmware, wouldn't this revert everything back? Including bootloader?
Anyway, not that I'd want to go back, that was more just to see what the final say was.
Moving on, so I should be able to flash a Poland room for example then update to Australian? As they are official firmware, I shouldn't trip Knox either?
Thanks heaps in advance guys.
Anyone??
Thanks!!

You can flash the Poland firmware while you wait. Almost everybody ran Poland Kitkat when it was first released.
The updated bootloader prevent from downgrading. If you try to do it via odin, the update will fail.
Official firmwares from any region will not trip KNOX.

AFAIK Optus Note 3 is N9007, not N9005. So may be this is your problem?

Ohh sorry, I mean there is a separate model for Optus operator.
In fact there is N9005 that has CSC code is OPS for Optus, and there is N9007 specific for Optus.
May be you have the 1st one.
You can get your Model and CSC code by using Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app.

[Q] Flashing stock rom

This maybe a very stupid question but ive looked everywhere for an answer but i cant find one. Is it possible to flash the stock lollipop rom over an unrooted o2 lollipop rom. Only reason im asking is i haven't much experience flashing Samsung phones and i want to make sure i don't brick the thing lol. any advice would be great. If it all possible could some one post me a link to which of the unbranded roms is best to use thanks.

Go to sammobile and find your firmware. Try to search by name e.g SM-N9005 and country. When you download from there you will see instructions or all over xda on how to use ? odin.
All you need is ? odin. No risks if you follow the instructions.
Thanks for the reply but it still doesn't answer my original question can I flash a unbranded lollipop over the O2 lollipop and I have yet to find a unbranded UK lollipop rom yet so which version do I down load?
Thanks

You should flash the good firmware for your CSC (device country code). You can find it installing this APP and going to Sammobile.com then for download the correct firmware.
mine says o2u and i cant find an unbranded firmware. ive included a screen shot.

You shouldn't flash unbranded firmware to one branded device. You should flash one of this ONES then.
is that the branded version of the o2 firmware? as i have that one installed already.

[Q] does flashing a custom recovery can hard brick my phone?

so i want to flash twrp in my S5 sm-g9009d , but im not sure if my model is supported , as it only says klte in twrp page (which i dont know if that's my device type , nor can i find any info about it :/ )
so what's the worst that can happen ?
Hi, Rinyumi ,
No, but there is red alert for all flash
You are lonely responsible of your fone
the Best way in this case hardbrick
In my idea is to flash last officiel
firmware or (stock rom )of your country with Odin

Lollipop update for SM-530H with Russian version

Hello guys,
I have a samsung galaxy grand prime, and I want to update it to Lollipop. Unfortunately, there's no firmware update to lollipop in my country/region. I noticed that there's an update for this device in Russia or India region. I wanna install one of those firmware in my device. Is it okay, although I'm not from India or Russia?
(Pardon my english)

It's G350H. And the baseband is XXU. I know about that, but I'm still not sure that's safe. Is there any risks if I flash it to any region firmware though my region firmware isn't available yet?

Hi argounaut! There's nothing really risky about updating from another region as long as it's the right firmware for your phone. I usually update just like this 'cause my region doesn't give anything at all. My first was from Russia and then I updated my firmware from Uzbekistan and then flashed the latest build from Panama. All of it are 5.0.2 (Lollipop) and I haven't had any problems at all upgarding from other regions :good:
(EDIT: And I have the same SM-G530H as you, so no need to worry about risks)

Not really, but you have to root it again after every update beacuase you will lose root access. And for the best firmware so far, I think you should always go with the newest build every time you update:good:
