First of all Hi and im new user so im sorry if i post this is wrong section.
Im using Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) and i need samo help about Lollypop update.
A lot of my friends who have the same phone got their update quite some time ago , but i still did not.
My phone was bought from private store , and from i can see in menu (About device) i think is bought from UAE (Because there is some numers and UAE name in About device) and sold in my country.
I wanted to ask someone who understand whole android update system , what determine how do you get your update? Country the telefon so bought, the country i live or my Mobile carrier i use ?
I will be gratefull if someone can answer me soon.
You can install any Lollipop ROM for G900F variant through ODIN
I had to use Kies to update my phone because Knox was tripped, and I could not receive OTA updates. It might help you, too.

Hello guys, I have a Galaxy Note 3 SM -9005 not branded
and I'm still not receiving the update via OTA. I also tried Kies but that didn't help me. Does someone know how to get the update without flashing?
I'm in Germany and the KitKat update is already available (since one month now)
PS. Knox counter is 0x0

If you were rooted, then dat would explain why you didn't get OTA notification.
But anyways, as far as I know, only VD2 - Vodafone, VIA - O2 and DTM - Tmobile are available for Germany now and unless your phone belongs to one of these categories or should i say regions, then maybe you shouldn't actually get KK officially yet. Dial *#1234# to check.
And even if you fall into one of the above, you can still jst flash it in ODIN, Kn0x should stay at 0x0 as long as you do not root.
Cheers.
As far as I know the update should already be available, is getting March by now. I'm with O2. But anyway thanks for your reply
Have O2 actually pushed the update? OR are you referring to the Unbranded Kitkat that has been pushed? -- cause both are very different. - Also If O2 is anything like it is in the UK they're slow as hell to push out updates. Often last and very late.
I have a unbranded Note 3, but I'm using a O2 Sim card. I was referring to the unbranded update but I think since I'm using O2 it's recognized as a O2 phone, even in play store it shows my Note 3 as: O2 SM -9005
It should still register as an unbranded model due to your firmware. -- Mine is unbranded also and in play store I have O2 Appspace / O2 SM-N9005 like you. - Could try grabbing the actual unbranded ROM from Sammobile and flash it via Odin.
DBT unbranded just confirmed now.
Yep, update started here too
Lol. That escalated quickly!
Hello,
im sorry if im doing this wrong but its my first time. I live in KSA and Bought my Samsung Galaxy S5 here, And i have been waiting for a very VERY long time for the lollipop update which seems like it will never come here (sammobiles doesn't even have 4.4.4 for KSA).
So i just wanna know if i were to put a firmware of another country which has 5.0, will it cause any major problems ?? :cyclops: please help!

not a single problem if you use the same area code releases like "XXU*****" ... i live in egypt and i use on all my phone firmwares of russia ... mainly because they are the ones which get the updates first

I already have lollipop and it's better if you wait for the 5.1 (I'm waiting for it :/ ), the 5.0 have a lot of problems.

For the G900F, the firmware is G900FXXU1BOC7
When looking for firmware that will work with your model S5, make sure the model number is the start of the firmware version
Hi
I am noobish and would love some help from an expert
I Got my Note 4 SM-N910H on eBay a few years ago. I brought it unlocked not sure if its unlocked via IMEI or some other way (Its working with both USA AT&T sim and UK Virgin sim). Looks like it has been customized in some way because I went to Odin mode and it has binary & status custom and Knox voided.
Tried updating via settings and it will not allow it due to being modified. Tried Samsung Kies and it says its not supported.
Its currently on 4.4.4 firmware and i want to get it to 6.0.1.
I found a website with the official 6.0.1 firmware for N910H. (Cant post links but updato and samsung-firmware). The problem is there are multiple different country versions and I don't have a clue which country to pick? I want it in English. But there are none with USA or UK. Does the firmware country make a difference apart from language? I don't know what the original carrier was and there are no carrier specific apps installed. Does it have to be the same country as the original? Could I lose my unlock and not be able to use my sim card?
About Device:
Android 4.4.4
Baseband N910HXXU1ANIF
Kernal 3.10.9-2815469
Build Number KTU84P.N910HXXU1ANIF
Device Status Custom (Does that mean its rooted?)
I am happy with either official firmware or custom if its 6.0.1 or something better.
Please any tips/advice/guides or links would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

4.4.4 is the best if you want my advice don't upgrade you will regret.
marshmallow and lollipop both sucks on note 4 and once you upgraded the bootloader will be locked and you cannot downgrade back to 4.4.4.
If your device status shows custom then it means it was rooted and modified for some reasons to make it fully work out of china because N910H is chinese note 4 3g model i believe.
just pick your own country. if its not available, just pick a neighbor country.
btw.....before you try any of those, try to boot to recovery and see if TWRP is installed. if yes, good, continue by creating backup of your current rom.
if not, I suggest installing TWRP first and make a full backup.
about kitkat vs marshmellow, I'll go with MM. With MM, you got more features, you got more recent android security patch.
yes, its worse on battery. but some tweaks here and there will (almost) fixed it.
Thanks for the help
Tried installing supersu and it says its not rooted so don't know why it says device status custom haha.
Yes 910H does say its an asian model but the firmwares are not asian areas they are more like african areas? The nearest one to USA is Trinidad and Tobago i think.
Think ill just stick with 4.4.4 since I don't know what I am doing
TY

Take your time to read on some threads. Just relax, no need to rush.
I have 910h myself, and I'm enjoying this device with root and xposed.
To root, get your cfautoroot. Its a simple process, just a few click here and there.
Custom status means that your knox is tripped. It means it has been successfully rooted before.
Trust me, its worth the time spent.

or if no one can solve this let me know i will stop searching for solutions
People simply might not know which is why they haven't replied. I can add my two cents but I'm not really sure.
930V is the version of the S7, a USA model. It might be that as the US model, it isn't compatible with samsung pay outside the US. It could also be that as a US model you can't get updates without being on a US carrier network.
Another possibility is that it's not an S7 at all and that it's a fake phone made to look and behave like an S7. Boot the phone into download mode, as download mode phone information can't be faked. See what it says in there.
But that's just a guess, I don't know for sure.
You can use Odin to change the firmware so long as it's a compatible stock firmware (you'd have to be looking at the Snapdragon firmware) which you can find at sammobile.com

its not face it tried g930u rom installed every thing good but little bit network problem network weak and Samsung pay is international not India version
Samsung pay may be an international service, but to work it still requires collaboration between telcos and samsung.
You have a US model phone that is not officially supported outside of the US, and is not officially supports by Indian telcos. That is probably why it won't work. Whatever Samsung and Indian telcos put in place to support Samsung pay likely doesn't include US model phones being used outside the US, with a non-US SIM.
The 930V also uses a different modem to the international 930F variant, which means you won't be connecting to all the same network bands as the 930F variant, which will affect your network speed and potentially any telco services such as VoLTE and Samsung pay.
There is a reason 930V's sell for cheaper than the international 930F variant.
so there is no solution for this phone
I have a AUS version of S7 and I can confirm that I am able to use it in India for Samsung Pay
Why dont you manually update it to Android 7. This will have latest Samsung Pay installed and you should be able to use it in India
Please head to Sammobile and search firmware for SM-G930V
Australia and India both use the international variant G930F, so I'd expect it to work.

Hi, so I got an AT&T Galaxy S10+ (SM-G975U) from the US and it was stuck at Android 10. I can't get any updates so I tried to flash a new firmware into my phone. The problem is, SamMobile doesn't provide AT&T firmwares for SM-G975U but other carriers like T-Mobile and Verizon is available. Can I use firmwares from other carriers for my AT&T phone?
Yes
I need help i own a S10 plus model SM-G975U AT&T variant, it runs android 10 with UI ver 2.5 I cant update the phone through its update options located in settings. I see new Android 12 Update have been released i want to update my phone can someone please tellme what CSC to use ? What PDA to use ? exactly which version of firmware should i install ? i know i am asking like a noob but please i really need some expert advise. P.S i dont know if my phone is unlocked or not ... how to check that either ? Moreover Expert Opinons be communicated to my email address which is: [email protected]
I would advise anyone looking to update not to update beyond Android 11. Android 12 has issues and not just on Samsung devices. You can download Android 11 for all US Variants here.
