Ok XDA experts,
This is Nick talking.
I'm trying to figure out which file to download. I'm stuck on Android 4.3 in a I9500. I've tried with OTA and Kies but no update is available.
I've downloaded Phone Info and my PDA is I9500XXUEMJ9 and CSC the same. Active CSC code: TGY/TMB.
No match is found at http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/.
I also don't know if I can randomly download any version or if I have to jump from 4.3 to 4.4 first.
Highly appreciated,
Nick.
I was planning on rooting my phone and found out that the battery doesn't charge to 100% yet. I installed the 4 modified firmware files that were included and want to return to the stock firmware, but I cant find the right firmware for my phone.
PDA/CSC Version is: G950USQE1AQDE
CSC code: XAA
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
I gave you what you need on Reddit in case you haven't seen it yet.
Hello,
I flashed my factory unlocked Samsung Galaxy S8 with the Verizon carrier firmware awhile back in order to gain some carrier features. Since then I have gotten a new device and want to flash my S8 back to the unlocked firmware. Flashing to the Verizon firmware was uneventful, but trying to flash it back to the factory unlocked XAA U1 firmware always results in a SHA256 Invalid error right after I click Start in Odin. I've tried the Prince Comsy version as suggested on a few threads, but it just gives a failed to write error. I have also tried another firmware version download (from Updato), different versions of Odin, and different PCs.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Anyone?
Still haven’t been able to find a fix for this. Tried with a patched version of Odin to bypass the SHA256 check, but it’s giving me a different error. I’ve attached photos of the exact error messages below. Surely someone here knows something about this?
download latest firmware
its maybe because you are flashing old file with v1 bootloader

Already using the latest from Updato. Thanks though.
Still haven’t found a fix for this. Any suggestions would really be appreciated. Not sure what else to try here.

Well, you were pretty close. For anyone who is interested, the issue I’ve discovered is that the current Verizon firmware has bootloader v4 on it, and the latest U1 firmware only goes up to bootloader v3. Looks like I’ll just have to wait it out.

Yes, I was getting that error because the unlocked firmware I was trying to flash had an older boot loader than the Verizon firmware that was on the phone. Had to wait until an updated version of the unlocked firmware was uploaded.

I don’t quite remember, I sold that phone soon afterwards. It has something to do with the name of the firmware, I’m sure Google could help you there.
Hi,
I am trying to flash my SM-G935A AT&T S7 Edge (not carrier unlocked) with the new SM-G935U firmware (G935UUES4CRG3/G935UOYM4CRG3/G935UUES4CRG3/G935UUES4CRG3) that I dowloaded for my US AT&T S7 Edge. I upgraded my S7 Edge to the latest Oreo firmware via OTA around a month ago.
I used SamFirm to download the image to flash. Anyhow, even though I put every file into its respective category on Odin 3.13.1, I get an "SHA256" mismatch error. I've seen some instruction that say to only add the AP file onto Odin and others say to use the prince cosmey version of Odin. What could be the problem? Does the phone need to be carrier unlocked? Is my firmware too new or of the same version? Do I need to use the prince cosmey version? Is it not possible to flash the g935u firmware onto a g935a phone? Should I use another download source? Should I use the slightly older G2 firmware? Anything else I should consider?
Also, I noticed that I could not download firmware for the SM-G935A using the ATT code with SamFirm? Any reason as to why?
I realize that there are many other threads that touch upon this problem but they are either with a different edition of the phone, firmware version or some other variant. I'm posting a new thread because I want to be as thorough as possible and make sure not to brick my phone by receiving safe advice before moving forward. Thank you for your time!
Below are the SamFirm download details:

Correct Thread?
Did I post in the wrong thread or something? Is that why there is no response? Would someone be kind enought to point me in the right direction if this isn't the right section for such a question?
Thank You
Hi did you find any answers to this issue? i got stuck on same point as you...
Stock Odin checks the version on the device and fails because the U version doesn't match the A version you are "upgrading". There are patched versions of Odin that skip this check, and that is what you need to do a cross-carrier upload.

Use a patched odin to flash the firmware, it will go through.
