There is this new rooting tool [Towelroot] that works perfectly, you may try it, it does not need PC connection and its free. https://towelroot.com/

Hi mate ,
phone info is a great app...the link you posted is for the official stock rom for the I9505 ( UK) , 100% original , if you flash it you will be back to stock ( recovery and firmware) , the only thing it will not be reset will be the knox bit ( warranty) if you flash a custom recovery or custom rom the knox bit will be set , if you rooted with towelroot it will not be set

It says 0*1...!!
Unless you made a backup of your EFS partition, AFAIK your IMEI is lost
Unlock will remain unlocked

Grab a LP ROM for your model S5, flash with ODIN, instructions under the download on sammobile site
Or check blue link in my sig for BOE5 G900F LP ROM

Hi. What ROM do you want to download to your phone? You are aware of custom recovery tips?
Do you know about baseband and bootloader versions?
Do you can explain how exactly its your scenario?
Hi. Actually my big bro send me mobile from UK. I am in Pakistan and want to unlock my Samsung Galaxy S4. I am not aware of recovery tips, baseband and bootloader versions. OS which installed earlier crashed and i am unable to install new FIRMWARE. i tried different firmware but all in vain.

Ok, you can try to install a custom recovery like TWRP. Here on XDA are lot of threads that explain this.
With custom recovery you can try to format, wipe, factor y reset and install new firmware

[Q]Kies on A300H

What happens if I try to reinstall the phone firmware through Kies On Tools tab using the number S / N ?, it will return to KitKat from lollipop without any problems?
Is it rooted? Custom Rom?

If you mean the restore firmware function in which you enter your serial no then kies/smart switch will restore the latest firmware for the model and carrier the phone is registered with.
There is a varying amount of A3/5/7 owners that have had issues when downgrading back to KitKat from Lollipop so research and then make your choice.

Yes I'm reffering that, but the cellphone I have is a A300H simple sim and I installed lollipop for A300H dual sim version xD. Are there a simple sim version of lollipop for my device? Thanks hehehe

No worries. yeah, if you use the restore function where you enter the serial no then kies will install the original firmware or the correct lollipop firmware for your device.
i think the firmware should work ok on either single sim or dual sim models. do you have full use of the device?

I have an A300FU model and i have downgraded to kitkat without issues but like i mentioned in a previous post that some A3 owners have had issues with bricking their device. It is entirely your choice but wipe data first if you do decide to go ahead. I went back to Lollipop in the end to be honest.

That is what i'm trying to say as all devices are different so could result in a brick or not. I was lucky and did not brick my device but i could if i reverted back to KitKat again. There is always a risk when flashing so the choice is only yours to make.

Help - IMEI Null after changing rom

Hello friends, I need some help.
I was replacing the firmware of a Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910C). Unfortunately something was wrong with the update and I lost the IMEI. I did not back up. Well I was already used to doing with the S4 Galaxy and I never had a problem.
The firmware he was on was 5.1.1 and the rom I loaded was CyanogenMod 13.
I would like to count on your help to find a solution to the problem

Try to flash the stock modem.
You should have backed up the efs in twrp.
