Hey Guys, i have a Galaxy S4 LTE GT-i9506 with T-Mobile Branding and i want Android 5.0. What happens when i flash the Nordic Countries 5.0 via Odin ? Does it works ?
Ps i'm from Germany sorry for my englisch ._.
Sure it works.
Yes I can confirm as well that it works perfectly with no issues at all. I was in the exact situation as you, I bought an I9506 phone branded with german T-Mobile and I updated it with the Nordic Countries 5.0.1 rom. Everything works perfectly and knox stays at 0x0.

Hi all,
I have the Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005, currenty running android 4.3, and I am waiting eagerly for the KitKat 4.4.2 update, but I'm afraid that because this specific model is not officialy sold im my country (Israel) and I bought it from abroad, that maybe the KitKat update will not reach my phone here in Israel.
Can someone please tell me if the official Samsung KitKat 4.4.2 update for this model (SM-N9005) is not region restricted, e.g. it has nothing to do with regions, and my phone will be updates via kies anyway ?

You Note will update from the Region that it was bought from, via OTA -- So if you got it from say, Germany, you'll receive German OTA update when it rolls out, same for X Y Z country.
I just did this and flashed the mexican CSC and locked my phone. I think if you keep the right CSC you'll be fine
Thanks

Here you go and next time post it in a right Section. Have a nice day.
Hello all,
I own a Galaxy Note 3 which has an Orange branded rom (France carrier), and I'm thinking of flashing a stock unbranded rom of France.
I'd like to know if there is going to be a region lock problem and also if the knox will be triggered.
You see I'm living in Greece and not in France. (If the region matters) ?
Thanks in advance.
No and No to both questions.
You can flash an official unbranded ROM over an official branded ROM. If you stay in the same region (EU) or even more safely, the same country, then this won't trigger KNOX.
Just grab the newest XEF and you'll be fine.
(I get people to do this with TNL and PHN on a daily basis)
Hello,
i recently bought an Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 in Germany and found out that it is a Baltic model with the XXUFNC4 Firmware installed.
Can i install the official German XXUGNF1 Firmware on this model with Odin?
Sorry if i missed something but im totally new to Samsung devices
Thanks in advance
Sure u can. As long as the firmware is for I9505.
Mine was a Vodafone Austrailia model which does not have a 4.4.2 update, so i updates mine using ODIN using firmware of the Baltic region.

Yes, you can but you will lose the ability of update ur phone via OTA or Kies 3.
Hi all, Im not sure if im posting in the right section, I am new to forumns, I have a samsung galaxy s5 G900F, I am in the UK but cannot get update for lollipop via samsung kies 3 or OTA. All it says is latest updates already installed. My samsung was bought in italy but was unlocked to all networks. My build number is KOT49H.G900FXXU1ANG9, is the reason it is not updating because its from Italy and that I have to wait for Italy to release their update?
Well, yea if your ROM is Italian then you need to wait for the Italian update
Or flash a UK ROM, in which case you might as well flash the stock Lollipop ROM from sammobile or here XDA
Yes, your rom is italian no carrier, in italy for now lolipop was released only for some carrier(Vodafone and H3g)
Thanks for your reply, I am searching for the UK ROM and found BTU - is BTU for no carrier? also do I need to Root my phone to install the ROM?
