[Q] Wich firware is the good one ?

Hi,
For a couple of days my Galaxy S5 XEF SM-G900F tells me there's and update for the firmware. As my phone was rooted no FOTA were possible so I uninstalled the root. Still no way tu update from OTA.
I tried Kies, but it always stop at 19% (tried on 2 different computers). So ok, back to the only one method that always works : ODIN BUT
Kies tells me that the available version is DA: OC7/CSC: OC2/PHONE: OC7
On sammobile, the only one firmware that has a csc: OC2 is the one for a specific carrier (Bouygues) . Which one should I download and flash to be up to date please ?
Thanks in advance for your help

Grab a stock ROM for your country and model S5 (G900F) from sammobile dot com - instructions under the download on their site

Flash any region you like, not sure how the networks will work though
Possible they'll work fine, trial and error

Use different country's firmware

Hi All,
I am looking to upgrade my Samsung Galaxy S5 to Marshmallow manually ( I got through an operator in Costa Rica and they are not close to release it).
My phone's model is SM-G900F:
AP: G900FXXU1BOJ1
CP: G900FXXU1BOJ1
CSC: G900FCRC1BOJ1
I found official firmwares on Sammobile for my model but not match my country, so, I am not sure if by installing any of those I will break my phone. I am pretty new on this matter.
Can anyone clarify this? Can I move forward and install it without any issues?
Regards,

Its doest matter... as long u flash the correct model for ur device.. if u came from kitkat or lollipop and want to upgrade to marshmallow u need to flash bootloader n modem for marshmallow first before flash the firmware...
If firmware from sammobile its already included with bootloader n modem (as i know its was included)..
My original csc is XME... now im using BTU and moded rom (xXx rom)
Send from SM G900F xXx 5.1 Odex Boeffla 2.1 beta3 Twrp 3.0.2-0
