Hello guys, I just wanted to know if I can install a firmware of another region on my note 4
for example: Installing N910C firmware on N910U model number
Please help
It's impossible.
Are you serious?
It would be much better if people knew where to post threads like this...also I don't think you can do that.
Its not possible to flash between model numbers, however its possible to flash firmware from another region... As long as its the same model number.
I know you can flash C on H as long as you remove the modem file first.
hello people
i have this samsung s4 i9505 which i think is not genuine , i think it's koren. its stuck on boot screen and i want to flash it . so i want to ask what is the difference between flashing a genuine android phone and koren android phone . any kind of help is appreciated
Try entering download mode by pressing volume down, home, and power at the same time. If unable to enter download mode your phone is a counterfeit. If you can enter download mode you'll have a model number, which we can use to point you to the correct stock ROM to flash. Flashing the ROM will stop the bootloop.
Fake phones use other parts than the original phone. And since roms are made based on the phone's parts, they won't work on the fake ones.

Thank you very much for your guidance. Yes I can enter into the download mode by pressing the mentioned buttons. It says the following :
Odin mode
Product name : GT-i9505
Current binary : custom
System status : official
Knox kernel lock : 0*0
Knox warranty void : 0*1
CSVCONFIG-LSV : o*30
Write protection : enabled
Emmc burst mode : enabled
Dues this mean my phone is original ? Thanks again for your guidance
I would say it looks valid.
Try to plug it to USB with Odin running on computer and get it detected.
Check samfirmware for i9505 official ROM and flash it.

As mentioned in PM, the phone is real. Now tell us what carrier you're using and we can direct you to the correct ROM for your phone.

thanks again for your help . looks like my mobile is genuine after all .i've checked sammobile as mentioned above but the thing is i am from pakistan . and there is no official firmware for pakistan . can you still help me ?. which rom should i flash ?
Any one you wish. Your phone is unlocked, so you're not limited to a specific ROM. I recommend using one of the ROMs not tied to a carrier, such as ones with the CSC code of BTU.
Samsung is actually a Korean company. So, if your phone is made in Korea, it's probably genuine.

thanks Again for your help . sorry i lost you there "the CSC code of BTU" . after googling i think you are saying that a rom of uk maybe ? if that's the case can i go ahead and flash a uk version of rom ?
and again which carrier should i choose ? i have found a rom but i can't post url so i am going to pm you
*laughs at myself for losing you*
Yeah, that's what I meant. The BTU ROM is an unbranded ROM for the UK I9505. It's carrier agnostic, meaning no carrier mods of any kind and will function in any country, so long as the phone isn't tied to its carrier. Your phone isn't tied to a carrier, so the ROM is fine.

Good day
I need your help, I just flashed my Note 3 (SM-N9005) with Lollipop 5.0 from sammobile.com
I used odin to do the flash and it ended up successfully pass. Right now, the phone is running with lollipop but it can't detect any SIM card !!!!??
the build number I flashed is for my country and this is the number
N9005XXUGBOEA_N9005OJVGBOE4_N9005XXUGBOD3_HOME.taror
Any hints or help guys??:crying:
Please any help guys
I'm still stuck with this problem, I tried all kinds of ideas after deep searches but non of them work so far
I even rooted my device and tried three custom ROMs but still my note 3 can't detect the SIM card and the IMEI is nul and baseband version is Unknown
any ideas
The issue is you must have chosen the wrong rom for your region. What Country are you in and is your sim from that country?
YOu need to flash a rom based on your CSC and sim ... I've done this a few times before and it always messed up when flashing custom roms, etc. The only way I found to fix it was to flash back to stock rom for my phones original region (ex: if my phone is from Japan, need to flash Japanese official rom for my mobile provider).
That should restore your IMEI and sim card issues.
If you're not sure, you can post back with details of your phone (CSC - region).
thanks for the reply . I can't really tel the exact location or region of my phone. but whe nI look at the box it all written in Bulgarian language.
I will try to flash N9005XXUGNG1_BGL and see what will happen
Hello
I dont know if this is the correct place to post(please correct me if so )
I have a SHV-E300L with its imei and baseband null (got it for cheap just to look into this case)
previous owner told me it happened without him doing anything but by the phone itself
Phone is not rooted. So no efs backups.
I have read that you can Force write the imei code if you know it?
What about the baseband?
What if i convert it to international version ? (i9500/i9505)
Or
Is it posiible to swap a motherboard of a i9500(idk the model no but i need 4g)
and the usb also?
it will cure the imei and baseband right? (since the motherboard carries its own?)
Please help me
Im just a newbie to the s4 I have a S2 and ive rooted flashed reflashed and stuff
Thanks All
Boot into download and verify the model number. Then go to sammobile.com and flash the latest stock ROM using Odin.
You can not convert a phone from one model to another model.
Please I have Samsung galaxy Note 4 that is running a custom rom. I want to return it to stock rom but I have problem identifying whether it is n910f or N910p. In the about phone section it is n910f but in download mode it says N910p. Also when I check for information using the imei check it says it is N910pzwespr. Can anyone help me find a way to ascertain the model number?
Look under your battery, it will have it on the sticker.
If download mode refers to the model as the 910p, it's a 910p.
Download mode isn't changed with the ROM.
