Hello people.
I have a galaxy s7 edge. My software version is 7. I would like to update it to 8 but in Greece there is not available yet. Can I install the UK version? The official from sammobile. Will I have any problems?
Thank you very much in advance.
hey there ,yes u can install but I don't recommend you because this version still have some minor bugs,so I suggest you to wait one week more...if you really want to download the firmware in high speed I recommend you to use www.updato.com it have all Samsung stock firmwares ,don't waste time waiting on sammobile..cheers

hey guys, i bought my sgs a month back in singapore and the screen jus gets ppl drooling over it. My current firmware version is i9000dxjf4, and Kies mentions this as the latest firmware but samsung-firmware.webs.com shows that there are three other updates after i9000dxjf4 for the asian region. Is it safe for me to download and update the latest firmware from that website inspite of kies confirming that i'm having the latest firmware. Could u also check out that site its quite cool.
Thanks for your replies....
Kies won't show updated firmware as the Samsung Firmware releases are not official. You can by all means download and install, but they are unsupported and there are risks if you don't do it correctly! Most of us here have flashed new firmwares just fine though.
i was also wondering , i'm in asia so should i install asia specific firmware update or can i download european firmware update. I see that europeans get firmware updates frequently than the asians??

thanks man my problem got solved.....it was informative....
So, did you download the latest firmware from the Samsung site or went ahead to use one of the custom firmware? Would like to hear if some of the problems that we had been experiencing went away after your upgrade (e.g., GPS, lags, 3G/Wifi switch, etc).
I assume upgrading to the firmware from Samsung does not require rooting. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I'll try to stay unrooted for warranty reason.
Cheers.
o you have to be ****ting me, please use the search before falsely getting peoples hopes up......

Hello,
I'v bought a GALAXY S5 G900F before two months, and it hasn't received the lollipop update, yet. I bought it from Saudi Arabia and now I've moved to Jordan (should that be a problem?)
I cannot wait anymore and I want to manually upgrade to Lollipop and I've got few questions.
1) Is it okay if I download a firmware for another CSC code? mine is (G900FOJV1AOA1) and in sammobile the latest downloadable firmware is 4.4.2.
2) If I root the mobile afterwards and a 5.0.1 was released OTA or via Kies, how can I get it? can I un-root to get the update then root it back?
3) Is there a way to reset the KNOX counter?
4) Are there any better websites than sammobile to download the firmware and how can I ensure if it is legit and untouched?
5) Why do different countries get the update so late? this is so irritating. why cannot Samsung just make the update available for everyone ? especially for the international unlocked versions.
Thanks in advance,

1-yes but if you want stability for modem choose same reigon code (ex.XXU-BLABLA for russia\egypt\saudi arabia like that ... see your current firmware code and find the one with the same ... if not its no big deal its that some people say its better ... imho get the latest by samsung any area make sure its international)
2-umm no and yes ... no if u just unroot ... yes if you make a full wipe after unrooting (ofcourse with not deleting any system apps in partition :silly: )
3-until now .... no ... but its simple ... you have warrenty stay away ... u dont ... just go and screw it :laugh: :silly:
4-yes but sammobile is the best and fastest ... another site is samsung-updates ... it gives you new firmwares faster than sammobile but download speed is pathetic for ul.to and other mirror
5-i dunno for real but keep in mind that 99.999% of samsung phones which gets the updates are "russian" ones ... so if you have the russia stock rom you will be the first to get an OTA by 99.999% :fingers-crossed: :silly:
hope i helped
I have a question after I read around on the topics but it still unclear for me. Can I update to lollipop with the model. I saw the post on Note 4 general site (Lollipop Update Thread By Variants) which give user to update but as far as I try to update it via OTA it has no new version at all. So should I update through the site's link or wait for the update (I know the waiting cannot be told for how long it take for each country but just little doubt if I can update via the link or should I wait for the OTA update?)
Thanks for advance suggestion guys.
Where did you buy your SM-N910G ?

Can you change to english please I am not good in tagalog but it is currently possible via odin right? thanks
Thank you guys I already found the solution for this matter. It seems like lollipop update will not go on your device via OTA but you need to use Kies for the update. Once you plug in your device to computer while kies is running then the update will pop up for Lollipop update. For someone who gets the same problem please do the following then you will be able to update to lollipop even though you are not in India.
Thread closed thanks.

1. First, identify your device installing this APP. Add screenshots here if you need help.
2. Go to Sammobile.com and download the correct firmware for your phone.
3. Flash this firmware via ODIN.
4. Done.
Thank you for your reply. I have installed the app you have recommended. Country of origin is China while the firmware used is of Pakistan. Not any firmware is available for Pakistan in the list. Also does this involves rooting or any loss of functionality? (Flashing the android version manually)
