[Q] Which stock firmware?

Hi,
The stock firmware for my GT-I9505 (S4) is currently 4.3. In lots of European country's (and outside the EU) are getting 4.4.2 already.
I guess The Netherlands is one of the last on the list because it still isn't available (not even listed on SamMobile).
Which country (Germany, Brazil and go on) does already have 4.4.2 which are the same as the NL 4.4.2 version? (SamsungMobile confirmed on Twitter that there might be differences between all the versions). So how do I know which one is the same as NL version?

If u want to flash firmware of different region u may flash any.......this will not make any difference that u want an country which is near to your region ....only default language can annoy you otherwise all are same

But can I change the default language to my country language?

Yes bt I think sometimes when u will reboot it may start up with the default language

yes al happen with odin . and you need only the firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares/ . the one you need for you country.
no need for any csc, because its al inside the firmware.

Do we keep files and apps if we downgrade or will I get factory reset? I hate lollipop and want back

I mean, the warranty is on the phone itself, not the operating system on the phone. it doesnt make sense to me that a warranty would expire because the phone upgraded itself.

Have you tried using a USB jig and flashing your firmware with ODIN? look here: http://www.xda-developers.com/need-a-samsung-usb-jig-build-your-own/ USB jigs can be found for only a dollar, google it and find the prices if you don't want to make your own.

Is there any reason you need NK2 in particular? My thread has NE2 and OC1 listed, I know at least OC1 is a newer build, so if anything, you'd be updating/upgrading your firmware. It's the same model number and region, so there wouldn't be any reason for it to malfunction...

I checked with kies the other day and i saw OC1 was the new firmware, i'll check that one out. Thanks. :good:

I thought about JTAG'ing the device, but I dont have a soldering gun.....I called samsung, and they are going to repair it because of still being under warranty.

G900F Root Problem

Hello guys! I've followed the simple root tutorial found on XDA and i've managed to root my S5 with no problem (i don't have any knowledge about this stuff cause i am a newbie,sorry...). After that ,i've successfully flashed TWRP Recovery and tried several ROM's but every one of them failed (bootloop on RR, corrupted zip on Note 7 ROM etc),anyway,it was late and the next day i needed my phone so i installed the Official Stock S5 ROM (6.0.1) found on XDA also (flashed with Odin). The problem is, i can't root it anymore. When i try to do the exact same thing i did with auto-root and Odin everything works except SuperSU ("There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it"). I've tried everything! And when i say everything , i mean it. Even KingRoot, wipping everything, trying to root again, the advices found on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/su-binary-installed-supersu-install-t1928764 and nothing works..if anyone can point me some directions , give some advices, i would be very happy! Thank you guys! I'm willing to try anything.

what baseband of 6.0.1 did you flash?

my problem is that I have a g950w and there is no combination file for that
I tried with the g950u combo file but so far it didn't work in odin
I followed the steps from this vid on youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qcBBQ4rwis&list=LLSNQkcO6M3sNXEwHIWXkEoA&index=20&t=311s
I don't know how you converted your 950w to 950u
I tried with the 950u combo file in odin but doesn't work
after I press start, says "All threads completed. (succeed 0 / failed 1)"
*nevermind, it worked after few tries, now it's the firmware that doesn't work
ok, then I tried a 950u firmware, it worked in odin, but then it said that device storage is corrupt
and had to reset
can someone help
