Here is the procedure

Take into accoun the firmware version, if you have the lastest, there is no way of going back to an older one.
You'll have to use one ending on H8

Where do you live? I have a (simlock free) T-Mobile device and i flashed the unbranded Dutch PHN firmware without problems. Look on Sammobile.com for an unbranded rom for your region and flash it with Odin 3.09.
Hi I'm in the UK

Wouldn't that method put knox to 0x1? Or am I mistaken. And couldn't he try using towelroot, depending on the version hes on?
He doesn't have a Verizon phone. He has an international model or at least that is what he listed. Not everyone can go up and down firmwares like we can.
You are right though. He could try towelroot first.

The full instructions here should help. The only difference is that you need the kernel/firmware for your specific s5 version.

Your questions would be safer answered by someone on the Galaxy S5 international forum but I found a couple of things. Use with caution as I don't know anything about your device.
Here is a link on how to upgrade to lollipop if you are interested. Also, this custom recovery (CWM) was in the same link. I believe you might have an unlocked boot loader so you are way better off than we are.
I also found this:
Backup device
Quote:
Step 1. Boot into recovery(hold the menu button and volume up button all together simultaneously until the device reboots)
Step 2. Select the backup button and confirm backup

Hi everyone! I own a verizon Samsung Galaxy S3 mini, rooted. I received a message that a software update was available. I tried to install but every time it fails. Any suggestion would be much appreciated!

Manually download the update and flash it with Odin.

Hi guys, I'm out of USA.
After many failed attempts still can not debrand my AT&T SM-G950U.
Through ODIN I upgraded successfully to latest G950USQS1AQF7_USC
But can not find any unlocked firmware (XAA) to my S8, only for S8+.
Any idea where to find it?
Thanks.

Not searching very hard then. Update.com and search firmwares for G950U1. You'll see the latest XAA listed.
Works great (Minus volte and wifi calling), I've been running it myself
Thanks joe3681 for you answer.
Firmware downloaded from sammobile (G950U1UEU1AQE3_G950U1OYM1AQE3_XAA)
But i got the following error when try to install it: FAIL! Model dismatch fail
Sounds like it's not correct fw then.

This is what I used and it worked perfect. I also always use the modded Odin and remove .md5 off the end of everything once I extract it all.
Ok!!
The modded odin works!!
Debranded!!
Thanks a lot joe!

Could you plz provide the link for upgrading to AQF7. I have an at&t galaxy s8 as well and i am outside US so haven't been able to update it. I have unlocked my phone already. Bt no OTA updates. Plz provide me the link for the file. Thank you. I have
Baseband version :G950USQU1AQC9
Android security patch March 1, 2017
Hi Guys, I'm in the same case as the OP, and I have always updated via Odin using Sammobile's firmware, which only includes the AP file. I already downloaded the modded Odin and firmware from joe's post, but it includes a lot more files.
Should I load all the files to Odin? or just flashing the AP file would be OK? Thank you very much in advance!
