and there is nothing important in csc, only blootware and basicly useless csc with blotaps presets for particular country/code
it is also XWLP7 as firmwares pushed eaarlier last week so it even has same phone language set
go check samsung letter codes it is the same region
only thing that might be important and new for some is modem if customized by particular carrier

what is complete csc list of this firmware?

Hey Guys
Sorry for the noob question but is it necessary to do a full wipe if already coming from an ICS ROM? I have XXLPQ on my phone already.

It's only 4Mb/s if no-one is using it !!!
A torrent would be far superior as download speed is now 115Kb/sec

on the other hand it is funny how those english firmwre was awaited and advertised by samsung england, undergoing tests and other crap
now when it comes out it is the same firmware(pda) as it is with us for way over a week with changed csc file what could be done by few more or less inteligent monkeys in hour if done from scratch
but hey, celebrate firmware is here :}

[Q] Latest firmware for galaxy s4 i9500 Exynos

Is the latest firmware already out yet? the one that fixes the purple smearing thing and some other issues? if so can anyone post the link and can you explain how come there are so many old firmwares for many regions? can i just pick anyone? Im using the i9500 international version
Can I install this one i found?
Model: GT-I9500
Country: China
Version: Android 4.2.2
Changelist: 590153
Build date: Thu, 30 May 2013 09:25:54 +0000
Product Code: CHN
PDA: I9500ZCUAME5
CSC: I9500CHNAME5
MODEM: I9500ZCUAME5
for my galaxy s4 bought in the us?

The new update that fixes the smearing (sortof) and includes new camera firmware etc. is not out yet for the i9500. As far as China's ME5 firmware goes, best stay away from that one. Although it is the most recent, it does not have as many changes as ME1 (Indonesia), which currently is the best firmware to have.

Thanks for the heads up. I just installed it and can confirmed what you stated.
The wake screen lag is definitely gone and the tablet 'feels' faster. :good:

If anyone wonders the root status after the update, yes, you need to root it again. The OTA update (~64MB) does not work on my P605 even I tricked the system status to "Official". I need to download the whole image and flash it through Odin. No need to reinstall everything though.

Thanks for supplying a decent mirror. Flashing shortly.

I think i got this update via OTA just now.
Country: Latvia (Europe)
Update size: 64~Mb (NOT a KitKat update ofc)
Before update: JSS15J.P605XXUBMJ9
After update: JSS15J.P605XXUBNB2
Dropbox link with screenshots of "About phone" section before and after update (build numbers, kernel versions etc.: https://www.dropbox.com/sc/9fj520chbnvap8g/Kaa4YHRcCz
Iam not rooted (and never have been on this device), but this OTA file is somewhere on my device and i can find it (without rooting), feel free to tell me in witch directory i should search it for and i can upload it instantly.
Edit: About update:
-Unlock lag isnt gone, but its got better, but still its noticable.
-got some bloat (Forbes app and Lilla or something)
- writing with lag is more or less gone (but still not as snapy as my note3)
Thats after minor testing, but at least for my taste no huge improvements.

CF-Autoroot... Go to the original android dev forum and look for auto-root p600. DON'T flash this cf-autoroot as it's for the exynos version and can kill your Note P605. You want the link to Chainfire's site, look up the P605 model and flash with ODIN.
This will trigger Knox...

Hey Guyz, I have a rooted p605 Lte, rooted with cf auto root, is there any way I can flash dis update to my tab since I am in another country (nigeria). Posted also are screen shots of my tabs details. If it is possible to flash it, can you please inform me, in details please, thank you

Hi Guys,

Good news. Unfortunately here I'm still waiting for one update. My N5 have a lot of problems and I need to reboot all the time.

I tried several Fw till now but I found this the best available till now: great battery, better reception, no lags.

Is RAM management better? No unlock screen lag which happens sometimes? Do I need to wipe or I can update via Odin?

RAM seems ok, no screen lag till now;
Odin is ok, but a full wipe/factory reset after installation as usual is suggested

In this firmware don't work secret menu *#0011#

I'm wondering if this firmware would fix the standby drain issue that some of us has it?

I flashed this and works fine, thanks to the OP for the download link. Can't say I've noticed my difference performance or battery wise though.

[SM-N920I] New Firmware and OTA: N920IDVU2AOJ4 (Singapore)

There is a new OTA update rolling out for Singapore, all CSC codes (XSP, SIN, STH, and MM1). The update is 144.2 MB. SamMobile also has the full firmware package.
PDA: N920IDVU2AOJ4
Baseband: N920IDVU2AOJ3
Build: LMY47X.N920IDVU2AOJ4
Android Version: 5.1.1
Changelog:
1. The stability of Call has been improved.
2. Battery usage optimisation
3. The security of your device has been improved.
Also, flashing this firmware seems to blow an eFuse (this is 2A vs 1A) so you most likely won't be able to downgrade after updating.

If updated the knox?

The changelog claims that the security policy is updated, so downgrades are impossible. So, yes, I'd venture to say Knox has been updated with this release.

i did not get the update, have you already updated the new version ? which model do you have note 5?

That's one of the line items in the change log so theoretically, battery life should last longer. Time will tell.
Sent from my Galaxy Note 5 using Tapatalk

Ok thanks ?

It seems to me the standby time is improved, as I live in a weak signal area, before the battery can down 5% in one hour just by sitting there, now it barely drops ?

Just updated this firmware OTA an hour ago. It somehow seems to fix my deep sleep issue
Will keep on monitoring and revert back
Phone seems to respond a bit faster too.
And total system ram usage also seems to lowered down.

Hoping this fixes my startup lag/freezing issue. So far so good over the last 24 hrs Those that did not get the update yet, you can download via samfirm or sammobile, and flash via odin v3.10.7

Changes in smart manager, battery section. Similar per app optimizations previously was in ram manager section of smart manager. However these seems different..

Can confirm it lasts significantly longer, now at 35 percent, normally down to 15 by this time

Nope. It'll only flash on an N920I. Odin won't allow you to flash firmware for a different model.

You don't necessarily need to wait for your phone to get an update, but you do need to wait for there to be updated N920G firmware somewhere in the world. At that point, you can flash. You just can't flash N920I firmware to an N920G.
