No, you can just put the file downloaded from Sammobile into the "PHONE" (or "PDA") area.

the firmware version of your phone should be on the original box with the IMEI , if you have the box go for it

Hi Mate
CSC stands for Customer Service Country , it gives you country/carrier specific configuration like language , carrier network settings ( like fastdormacy)
Is good to have but you can live without it.

Does that mean i can download any software from sammobile and install it without any problem??

Hi ,
In most cases yes , you may not have your language available or miss a network specific configuration but it should work ...

Yes.
But do not try network specific roms or firmwares of some different model.
Example: i9500 stock firmware wont work with i9505. You will brick your device.
Rest any i9500 rom will work with i9500.
I'm using a russian i9500 firmware on my Indian i9500, and it works better than the rest
Press Thanks if I helped

[Q] Carrier Specific ROMs

Hey Guys!
I have a question regarding stock roms. I've been looking at SamMobile for an official release of Lollipop here in Philippines, the only download I can see is for a local carrier Globe. Will it cause problems if I flash this on my international N9005?
I also want to ask the same question for an S4 I9505, but it's the other way around; the phone is from Globe, network locked, and I am thinking of flashing an international version ROM. Will this cause problems? I know this isn't the right forum but just in case someone would like to answer.
Thank you!

1. Yes, you will have problems with the radios. It's not importat where you live that what CSC have your device. Install this APP and look for your CSC. Go to Sammobile.com, look for your csc, download and flash the latest stock rom for your device via ODIN. (Pic attached)
2. Regarding GT-i9505: Yes, it will cause lose of signal. The best you can do is unlock it by IMEI.

I flashed a rom from Brazil. Everything works great it's just that the bloatware included is annoying. I figured the best option to flasha ROM from my country but the only one with a Lollipop ROM is carrier specific.

Samsung allows users to use roms from their own region interchangeably. In most cases, even globally.
I've never encountered issues with radio or signal loss when flashing different providers and countries in my own region, and I've had thousands of people flash and use all sort of different EU firmwares. (you can find the region on the sticker on the box.)
(US users have different devices with real carrier locks, so those are excluded.)

[Q] I want to update to Lollipop! Help needed!

Hello Guys.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) UAE model. (LTE - Snapdragon 2.27 GHz quad core model)
Baseband Version: N9005XXUGNG1
PDA: N9005XXUGNJ2
CSC: N9005OJVGNH2.
Presently there is no official release of Android Lollipop for this model. I have bought this mobile from Kuwait and now using in India (Unlocked). I have searched on Google and many other Android forums about flashing Lollipop ROM using Odin but I have many doubdts regarding the procedure. I hope you kindly clear my doubts.
1) According to many forums and google search results - We can flash any country's SM-N9005 based ROM and it will not affect usage of the mobile in any way except that my baseband will be changed. Is it correct? If yes will it not really affect my mobile?
2) If I can flash any SM-N9005 based lollipop ROM, which countrie's ROM should I download so that I will not loose any options am having now on 4.4.2 Kitkat like 4G support, no battery drain issues, wifi or bluetooth connectivity problems or any other software related problems.
3) If I have any problems (If I upgrade to lollipop) can I roll back to kitkat again? If so how can I do it?
Please help me with these questions guys. I have checked sammobile site for downloading SM-N9005 based ROM but the site is too slow or the site itslef is restricting in terms of download speeds for free users. On my 20 MBPS connection am getting a download speed of 15 kbps. That really sucks. So can you provide any other alternative links for downloading ROMS (if available)?
Thank You.

Buy premium.
Noting in the world is bug free.
If you can't use Odin read again and again and again. Because even when you download it from sm.com you can see install instructions there. It is everywhere. Or watch YouTube to use Odin. Easiest thing.
You can use open German or any other country for 9005 other than Hong Kong. Same thing different names.
0 answers because it is boring to answer same **** again and again. Search the forums here.

Have you even understood my question?
My problem is not with odin. If you didnt understand my question read my question again and again.
Btw thanks for suggesting premium usage!

1 it will not affect usage of the mobile in any way except that my baseband will be changed. Is it correct? If yes will it not really affect my mobile?
<< baseband is modem so you may have no or poor or good network >>

3 Yes by reading the forum there are enough identical posts.
4 downloads samsung-updates or as said premium .
Agree you need to read and learn these are basic questions that are already answered .

I have searched forum enough to find a suitable post. But none of them directed me exatly what I needed, for the fisrt question. I really can't find a post that says which country's ROM I can flash without any major problems.
If you can give me a link, I will be glad.
Thank you!

Try the India thread in General .

thanks but i cant find for n9005 in sammobile
turkey is not in the avaible countries list

Not released in Turkey then all you can do is find a nearby country that uses same network .
But best would be a local repair shop and get them to install what works .
