I don't understand the differences between the various versions of the Note 3, the various versions
of N900, and N9005. Are the differences in hardware, or just in software?
In particular, I'd like to know if modem firmwares are cross compatible.
When I look at the firmwares available for N900 on sammobile, I can see PG4 released 1-Sep-2016, whereas the latest version for N900T is OL1 released 28-Dec-2016.
Can I just flash a different modem firmware? If I take my phone to a different country, does it make sense to flash
the firmware of that country?
Does modem firmware affect just the modem, or also GPS and other things?

I want to load a stock firmware for my S5, and I have seen many different links and images. On the firmware details I see specs like model number (which I know is very important) but I often see region or country. Is this a critical aspect to consider? I am in South Africa on the Vodacom network and I have not yet seen a link for firmware for lollipop for this country. Does it HAVE TO BE matching my country as well or can I use any lollipop image for SM-G900F?
Any one have a link to a thread for stock firmware lollipop, (or kitkat will do as well) for my SM-G900F, and maybe can answer my concerns about country spec.
thanks
Links not allowed to the site, but search for "sammobile"
You can install any ROM for the G900F afaik

It is my understanding that if you want stock then goto sammobile. match your model number and your build number to the stock roms that are available. Then wipe and flash the stock rom to your device.

You can. But you might have signal issues due to the baseband being for another country.
Hello!
Recently managed to upgrade the modem on my s4. I went to samfirmware and downloaded the latest modem for my country (Sweden) and it's I9505XXUHOE1.
I then noticed there is a later version, I9505XXUHOE3, but it is for Romania.
Should I flash this instead to have the latest version and don't care it's for Romania?
It should not matter. Some work better then others but I doubt it's related to the country.
My phone is Galaxy A5(SM-500F)
PDA/Baseband:A500FXXU1AOC1
Region/CSC: KSA
android version :4.4.4
*can i flash leatest (5.0.2)firmware with other csc for this model??
and How to flash this?
You shouldnt have a problem, i received my phone with NEE CSC (nordic countries) and flashed the Cyprus one as it had newer build date.
Ps, when flashing with odin, and changing region, tick the Update Bootloader option.
Also, Branded or Carrier Roms (Vodafone, Tmo, etc) wont flash on Unbranded phones as they have different partition tables.
Remember to flash only roms for your variant strictly (SM-A500F)
Edit: Latest rom is Here, instructions how to flash are on the download page of the rom you choose.

Does flashing original samsung firmwares trigger knox counter? Like if i have a stock phone with KK 4.4 and flash the LL 5.0.2
will the knox counter get triggered ?
No worries, it wont. Odin is a samsung leaked tool, and the roms are samsung made packages, it is pretty much what Kies/Smart Switch do when they handle the phones.

Ī¤hanks a lot bro
Hi there,
I got a SM-P610. The sticker on the back also states SM-P610. It is the Wifi only model and was bought in Korea. Are there differences hardware-wise on the wifi-only version between Korea and Europe/Germany? Can I safely flash the german firmware?
Best regards
I have not found information that SM-P610 has different hardware versions, so it seems safe to flash the firmware for a different region considering the BIT.
Remember that you do any flashing at your own risk.
What's your problem with the Korean version?
