SAMMobile S4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi Guys,
I am a Nbie and have a few Q's on SAMMobile.
I understand the firmware is ORG. but, here is the first Q:
1. my S4 baseband version is I9500XXUGNF6 and on SAMMobile there is a update for India but the version is PDA I9500XXUHOAA , CSC I9500ODDHOA2, MODEM I9500DDUHOA1, can I install this version on my S4?
2. does my device have to be rooted?
3. do those automatic root programs(oneclick/vroot)work? if so, which are the best programs to use? free?
thanks guys.

Hey all
this is my first post, so please bear with me. have been a long time 'silent reader' here and thanks to Chainfire and his 'region blockaway' i did my first root back in October 2013. I have an international Note 3 9005, 4.3, Build XXUBMI7. I would like to update to 4.4.2 but i'm really lost how to proceed and where to download the necessary files?

@Claudio21CH
1 Download the firmware from sammobile.cpm
2 Pc ODin you must have used it fpr rooting.
Flash the firmware with pc odin to your phone via usb cable.
Same procesure you have used to root your phone.
Sent from Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005
thank you very much, will try and keep you posted!!
I visited sammobile and checked their firmware section. Seems for my build (N9005XXUMBI6) there is NO firmware update to 4.4.2, only for 4.3. My phone was bought in Switzerland without carrier lock. Can I just use one of the firmware where it says 'country unknown' or do I risk to brick my device? Thank you once again

What is your CSC?
Use this app Phone INFO ★Samsung★ to see what is your CSC.
Also in this app. you can enter the Menu --> select 'Firmware Browser...' to see a list of available stock firmwares for your phone, including the latest one.
Thank you very much

Nope, it is CSC version, not the actual CSC code.
I mean the 'Active CSC code' in the CSC INFO section.
Anyway you can enter the menu and select 'Firmware Browser' to check for the latest firmware by yourself.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
EDIT: Ok, AUT is Switzerland and the latest firmware is N9005XXUENB4 on March 2014, Android 4.4.2
The download link for this firmware is also given in this app.

What is your KNOX state, If its still 0x0, the you would need the mobile odin pro 4.0 method to update to keep knox 0x0.
Thank you all. Finally managed to upgrade to 4.4.2 with firmware from sammobile.com but now realized that I don't have root anymore. Will use CF autoroot for 4.4.2.
Cheers

First your phone is fully unlocked? If yes you can use this Rom's to flash in it:
http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=SM-N9005 - I used this site and for me was very good
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/1/?model=SM-N9005&pcode=0#firmware - A lot of people say to me this is the original site for rom's-firmeware of SAMSUNG...
So you need now to chose from where you want to download AND chose from what region you want to have

Yes you can flash any of the firmware which is 4.4.2, but if you have snapdragon note 3, I don't know any region when you can get fast updates But I'm not sure sometimes if you change the firmware region maybe you can lose your IMEI...
So look at me I'm from Romania and my firmware is from Europe/United Kingdom/France and I don't lost my IMEI... I don't have romain firmware because have specific apps for that operator
- To get the latest firmware for N9005, install Phone INFO ★Samsung★ app, open the menu 'Firmware Browser'. Enter SM-N9005 in Model textbox and leave CSC textbox blank. You will see a list of latest firmware.
- To check whether your phone is fully unlocked, see this thread. Tap on the code *#7465625# to check.

Try checking if there is a new version in Settings->General->About Device->Software Update.If you don't get an update to download then go to Sammobile, make an account, look at the firmware section and chose a firmware and download it.After doing all this flash the firmware package with Odin.Also this is the wrong section, you should have posted in the Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It depends by your carrier. You don't have to root your phone!
But you can always install an LP Rom from xda .
You can install firmware (LP) with Odin (latest is POF9 - you find them on sam mobile
hmmmm

First I recomand to install stock firmware (LP) with Odin (you will find lots of tutorial on Web - if don't ask me how) as you are now on KK (ANC9) from here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G900F/
Keep in mind country doesn't really matter so just download latest (POF9 and BOE6/5 - Great Britain I think)
After that you can install any other ROM you like (you also lose root after this, but you "reroot" in few minutes )
Any need for the massive font?
