[Q] Downgrading

Hi guys I'm kinda new here and a beginner in flashing but anyway I need some help i have a Samsung s4 gt-i9505 and just as 4.4.2 kitkat came out I wished to upgrade due to Australia was one of the last countries to receive the update so I flashed my firmware to
Some thing else to get the new firmware which I thinks German anyway Australia has caught up with the world now and I wish to go back to Australian firmware but unsure of how to do so I have downloaded Australian 4.3 telstra firmware as I can't seem to find a 4.4.2 Australian firmware to download so my question is how do I go about downgrading to 4.3 from a up to date 4.4.2 firmware with Odin? Please remember that I'm kinda new to this and also I've attached a screen shot with my current version

You don't need and can't downgrade. If you received OTA (Over the air) update and ur phone updated to GN5 means that ur phone isnt Australian, it's german. You can know it better doing this steps:
1. Install Kies 3 and it will give u the CSC (device code zone) like in pic attached.
2. Take a look the CODE of 3 letters in this page for check the country of your device -> HERE
3. Done
*EDIT: The latest firmware update for i9505 is I9505XXUGNF1 if you own a german phone (DBT).

[Q] GALAXY Note 4 - SM-N910U Lolipop

hi,
is there any way to know when lollipop will be available?
PDA N910UXXU1AOC3
CSC N910UZZH1AOC3

I think soon according to this, he said which one push first

.

it take so much..
i am really looking for it

910U already has lollipop on all NZ carriers, Papua New Guinea, Taiwan and Fiji on Vodafone. You can safely flash one of those on your device the only issue is the CSC will be incorrect.

i am afraid to do it
i prefer that get the FOTA update
this how it should work..

How do you correct the CSC then?

It has been mentioned somewhere on here before, but I'm pretty sure it only effects the ability to perform OTA updates

i prefer that get the FOTA update

it's ridiculous
that after 8 months that lollipop is out , the note 4 U version is not released
it gives the impression that Samsung device become not relevant after release

it was released a few weeks back. do you mean it hasn't been released for your region?

i don't see any update for my device
i failed to see here any update for my particular device:

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/47332/N910UXXU1BOE3_N910UZZT1BOE3_BRI/

i am afraid to install it
i am afraid to install it by odin
i prefer FOTA as normal customer...

You'll be waiting a long while for that fota.

Thoroughly disappointed

Hi,

Got my update OTA overnight (Smartone).
Battery life got noticeably worse. Have not done factory reset though.

Aug security patch

Hi,
I own stock Italian Vodafone's h850, ordered from amazon and first-registered in Finland, using local carrier. Have the vodafones own Updates app, but it wont even open etc.
Today I received v10i (v10i-222-10 to be search friendly) via OTA. Got the same Value Pack message (what is that?), and septembers security patch. (2016-09-01)
I'm also asking that are you other VDI G5 users receiving these same time, or does it matter that I am not in Italy? Asking because can't find any info about this update.

New Firmware MHA-L29C432B197 OTA

Just had this update today (unlocked global model)
Can't say I've noticed anything major yet.
Oh persistent notifications or at least some of them, seem to be working like they ought to now, which is a first for me, as every notification was swipeable in the past.

Actually that's quite old update, some got it in the beginning of October. We should be getting Oreo update, not some minor pach
and I haaaate persistent notification

arrived in Germany yesterday...

No update for me on the US model as of now

My wife's Mate 9 a fully stock German unlocked OEM model received the B198 OTA, mine a fully stock German unlocked OEM model is still on B194 and keeps telling me there's no update? Both Mate 9's are not rooted and are fully stock. The only thing, mine came without box and charger (2nd hand) so I don't know if it got unlocked and re flashed, got it from ebay.de. Is there a way to check from which region the phone originally came?

Change 'de' to other iso country symbols - IT for Italy, SE for Sweden, NL for Netherlands
Additionally, you can try Huawei Online-Chat.

Thanks for the link...mine shows under warranty till 14-08-2019 while the mate 9 from my wife is no longer under warranty, exp 01-05-2017.
Both are the same models, I can however not see if they are branded or not...

Just received the B198 update on the second...that means if the official Android Oreo gets released for the Mate 9, both our phones should receive them via the OTA. Happy days!

Same here, in France with "German" phones...

Still waiting for 198 on an Italian Mate 9, received one month ago as substitution for my old Nexus 6P. Phone was new and boxed. It's a dual sim (L29B)

I received 198 earlier today.

I wonder if the baseband version is a joke by the programmers at Samsung or a little honesty on their part?

The G950F is a regular S8, not an S8+. You are posting in the wrong forum.

Technically that's true, but the update is rolling out now for both the S8 and S8+....so it's quite relevant
Though we need to avoid multiple "Oreo is out now!" threads appearing

Most probably we'll need to wait more until we'll get the Odin files for flashing

We may get the update in flashing Germany 7.0 through odin and then checking the OTA update, isn't it? which 7.0 rom in we should flash in this case?

I know right. I've been waiting for it to hit the Samsung firmware science site. Nothing yet. Maybe a day or two.

nope sitting in the corner and pushing the "search for updates" button... i havent neither for the s8 nor my s8+

I am sitting here with Samfirm open and clicking the "Check Update" button but unfortunately it still says 7.0 Nougat is the current firmware for my Tmobile S8+

Maybe the OTA gets released for DBT, but i expect the full download monday or even tuesday.

Maybe they will start rolling out the updates for non beta users after MWC...

i have latest beta but no update

I know that since the S7 edge , but Sammobile divided it into 2 F & FD since the S8+
Was just confirming that i will be able to flash my FD with the DBT Oreo when the ODIN package is available
