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,
I bought my S7 edge form Portugal, the phone is factory unlocked.
Now I'm back in my country and I thought I should download from sammobile the official firmware of my carrier provider or the global version.
I'm not sure if I'll still receive OTA updates if I flash the firmware with ODIN, and if that's the case, please tell me if there's any other methods to flash the baseband without causing updates issues in the future.
I want to update the fw because Volte doesn't work.
Another question, I don't have a PC, so I was wandering if I can install Odin on Mac or in VmWare?

I'm on 930u lastest firmware, now i want to downgrade to official firmware to get nougat update,

thank first
Does anyone have recent experience flashing carrier firmware to the unlocked (U1) model, especially on BL5? Does it still require combination firmware or can I just flash the latest AT&T firmware from Updato using regular Odin?
It would just be regular firmware from at&t. The same way if you wanna flash back to the unlocked firmware. No combination files are needed.
Hi,
So first I'll give the background of what I've done & then ask the question. I was on a custom ROM on my S7 Flat which was Pie based and I had updated the BL files prior to that via TWRP. Now I am from India so I wanted to go to stock firmware via ODIN and I had some old firmware which I tried flashing & got an error. I came to know that I can't flash older firmware as I flashed the July BL files. So I went to Singapore country stock firmware via ODIN as that had the June security patch which went successful. Now I want to go to Indian firmware but the latest one that's available is May over the web.
My question is being on a June security patch of Singapore firmware can I flash the May Indian firmware via ODIN? Will this cause any issue?
Please admin delete this thread.
The basic knowledge is Samsung's Flashing depends upon binary if you have same binary Firmware as your phone or higher than your phone you can flash any regional Firmware.
