Model: SM - N910F
android version 4.4.4
baseband version: N910FXXU1ANJ4
currently running 4.4.4 and when I search for updates it tells me that I currently have the latest update, which of course I don't.
I'm guessing that the best option will be for me to bring it up to date using Odin, can anyone advise what I will need in order to do this? where is the best place to find the software I need etc
All help and advice gratefully received, Thanks in advance
NONE OF THE STOCK TAR IN THE LINK IS FOR SM-N910F
THE ODIN IS ALL THAT YOU NEED TO DOWNLOAD
You will have to do an online search for the Samsung drives needed. YouTube search for using Odin to flash official firmware. Importantly is a must. The link Odin ONLY. Just dont want you to flash incompatible firmware. Good luck.

I have the same issue, 4.4.4 and I want to get 6.0.1 installed.
Is this something that a non geek can do? I am going to google Odin. What should I watch for so that I dont flash incompatible firmware?

CSC N9005OLBGNL1
it says 4.4.2 is current however everyone else I know has 5.0 Lollipop
how can I update this to lollipop
better dont
You should wait a bit more and stick to the kit kat since lollipop is not polished an fixed entirely for average use. Don't get me wrong but if you don't know how to do it better don't do it yet because it can provide problematic install and/or bootloop. Even Samsung official update is stopped because of lollipop problems.
Cheers!
When you search for sm-n9005 in sammobile firmware section, download open German lollipop (not carrier ones). When you download firmware, there you can see how to install as the instructions are there. Gl

New to the forum but I do know a bit about custom ROMS and flashing (I think)
So basically, I own a Chinese variant Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9508) that is rooted and currently in Android 4.3 Jellybean. Recently I saw some sites with unofficial firmware updates for this model (I9508) to Android 5.0.1 Lollipop and decided to give it a go at flashing. Tried about 3 different MD5 files using Odin v3.10, but every time it would fail, saying that no PIT files are found. So I then proceeded to look for PIT files for the I9508 model online, without any success. Do I need a PIT file for this? Or am I missing something else?
Dunno what's going on. Any answers will be much appreciated
thx
bump?

You can flash via ODIN the latest LOLLIPOP stock rom OFFICIAL for your device: HERE.
I have an ATT Galaxy S4 (no longer under contract) that is now running on StraightTalk. I did the upgrade from KitKat 4.4.4 (I337UCUFNJ4) to Lollipop 5.0.1 ( I337UCUGOC3). I really do not like the update and hopefully you all can help me out. I’ve been reading online about using the Odin software to flash back to a previous version. Can the flashback to KitKat be done without any ‘rooting’ as I'm not into that just yet? At this point but simply want the easiest way to return to KitKat 4.4.4. Is the process fairly simple and what are the steps and how can I get access to the I337UCUFNJ4 software? Thanks.
@ThinkWolfpack

Thanks for the help winnepeg. It helped!! No problems at all!!
Hi,
My Device is:
SM-N9005 LTE (32GB)
It was running 4.4. Kitkat and I tried to flash Android 5.0 via Odin. Everything went fine except wifi which did not turn on at all. While searching I found out that many users faced this and there isn't a best fix available yet. Probably I flashed a wrong firmware which may have caused some csc mismatch or kernel issue. I definitely needed the wifi back so i went on to try and experiment more on the device which brought me to CM 12.1 and I flashed it via TWRP. It brought back my wifi but now i miss some of my staple apps on this device especially S Pen Stylus & S health. I tried the simple method - downloading a firmware from sammobile and flashing it through Odin but it failed in Odin. Is there any way I can go back to to Stock firmware? My knox is at 0x1 but it doesn't matter much.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi,
I already tried that but it gives this error.
Maybe you have updated your bootloader that's why you can't downgrade. Try lollipop roms. Or try a tw based custom rom with twrp.
What is the baseband and bootloader on your phone?
Match the last 4 characters to firmware here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N9005/
I'm sorry for hijacking this post, but something fairly similar happened to me.
I've got an SM-N900, decided to update to Lollipop but despite all my efforts I've been getting awful battery life so I'd like to go back to KK.
Right now I'm using
Bootloader & PDA: N900UBUEBOF1
CSC: N900PGUEBOF2
Baseband: N900UBUEBOC3
and would like to go back to
PDA: N900UBUDND1
CSC: N900UWADND3
I've been reading and found that you need to flash this if your bootloader is on Lollipop, this is where my doubts begin. How do I know if my bootloader has been updated to Lollipop? If my BL is on Lollipop and I flash that file, can I install any KK rom?
Thank you for reading this, and I apologize for hijacking this thread.
Hey guys,
I'm trying to revert back to the stock rom on my N910F (UK purchase - unlocked) but no matter which firmware I download via Sammobile, it just isn't working! It says "FAILED" on Odin when flashing. The only firmware that seems to work is N910FXXU1COH4_DevBase_alexndr - but this version has constant knox notifications and I'm giving my phone to a family member who doesn't want root or anything because she's not very good with phones, she also wants the stock rom installed only.
Can anybody advise me on where I'm going wrong or the firmware I need to install? Should I attempt 5.0 instead of 5.1? Thanks in advance!

Make absolutely sure you have the proper firmware, (correct country code) and so on..
Also..do you have a custom recovery installed.? IF so, you'll probably need to flash the stock recovery from the OS your needing to revert..after stock recovery is working, then flash the firmware..

Make shure to use the genuine USB cable and don't use USB 3 port
