Used the site many times, it is legal and flashing the official software from there does not trip Knox either, updato.com is another site for Oreo firmware.

Haven't received any update after 4.4.2. I'm not living in the US, that's the reason I guess. Is there any way I can upgrade my phone to lollipop? Not rooted.

Thanks for replying. Kies3 says that firmware is up to date. Can you please elaborate the procedure to update through sammobile? Thank youuu.
You can download the latest firmware from sammobile.com or from samsung-updates.com. You have to kwow the model number of your S5 (G900F, ...)!!!
Download ODIN (you can google it and you will find it). Odin is a programm to install firmwares on your Android.
Then you can update your Smartphone using your PC, Odin and the latest firmware. There are a lot of step-by-step instructions (google it )

Yes, VOD CSC.

Does that mean only Vodaphone users can flash it? What happens if we flash it on a unlocked phone?
Will it give me the bloat of vodaphone?
And will it lock my bootlaoder?
And how do i update if i have root and twrp?

What's the problem in installing the VDO version? Just the bloatware?

Thank you man
I have an Sprint Samsung S8. I want to update to Android Pie 9. Its currently on Android 8.0.0 - R16NW.G950USQU5CSA4. And I want to flash with Odin to any compatible Android Pie FW. I am personally not looking to unlock or anything. The confusing part is that when I research the FW version (G950USQU5CSA4) it comes as a Verizon FW. So I am not sure if is safe to flash any of the Pie FW available on sammobile for Sprint.
It is safe to flash for example to one like G950USQU5DSD3 that appears in Sammobile and is for Sprint?

For any newbie like me who ever had a look at this thread. This definitely work as said by @kpwnApps, I downloaded SM-G950U, build G950USQU5DSD3 (3.92GB) from Sammobile and flashed with Odin. Flashed AP, BL, CP, CSC (not CSC_HOME) on its respective place on Odin. 5m 32s later it was updated with no trouble.

Last question, I am personally not interested. Just curious. As long as is the same android version, would it be possible to downgrade too by flashing with Odin and earlier version? or would something like that cause a brick?
