Kies Shows Multiple Firmwares; Old and Current

Hi guys,
I have an Unlocked Galaxy S5 G900H. Few days ago I flashed Argentina ROM for G900H and the process went successful. But when I connected my phone to Kies, it started showing multiple Firmwares. Then I Flashed Stock ROM back, but the multiple firmwares are still there. And as a result Kies cannot be used to upgrade or emergency firmware recovery.
Here's how it looks :

}
And when I click on Firmware Upgrade and Initialization, I get this:
And further proceeding with the upgrade, I get this:
What I have done so far:
Re flashed stock ROM but no luck. IF there's some special way I need to do it in odin, please let me know.
Did Factory Reset Multiple Times but nothing.
Kies is up to date. I even re-installed Kies.
I have no Antivirus Installed.
Please Help me

I dont think CSC changers work on Android 4.4.2. They did used to work on older versions. So this is not a choice.
Thanks

Can you not downgrade your firmware. Or you could try the hidden code's. They may work.

Did anything get figured out with this? I'm bricked too and can't do anything about it because the 5.1.1 firmware isn't out and I can't figure anything else out to fix it.
I was able to acquire the following files...

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Flashing these finally brought this hopeless nightmare to an end.
I had the Kingsroot + SuperSUME = FAIL brick condition and this saved the device (it wasn't even my device, I was fixing it for a friend). Let me know if anyone is interested.

Is it possible to unbrick the Note 4 SM-N910F variant?

I have with my a Note 4 variant (SM-N910F) which got bricked after trying to flash a custom rom. Is it possible to return to stock rom or do I have with me just an expensive rock?
Here's a screenshot of what is displayed when the device is powered on:

Yes. Use Odin to flah a stock rom, or better, to flash a recovery. From the recovery you do what yiu want

Thanks for the prompt response. Never used Odin or a flashed a Samsung phone before

If flashing the single stock tar doesnt work, try using "samfirm" to download the latest rom in binary format so that you can repartition the phone with odin.
Just download the file and extract it to get 3-4 seperate tar files.
Select the files according to the tabs in odin (compare the prefixes of the files with the file selection tabs of odin).
This must do the job.

You flashed an old firmware that's why you are seeing that error.
Download THIS firmware, and flash in Odin. It's for Verizon but has no bloat.

If I flash the 7.0 with Odin will it wipe my phone? Do I have to back up everything and if so what do you recommend I use to do the back up?

OREO Update?

Hi everyone,
I've a situation, i've got a used Samsung S8 from the UK, and it's working so far perfectly with my carrier (Moroccan one), and i'm trying to update it (via settings) but it always says that there's no update yet, and i'm thinking about doing it manually with Odin, but i'm worried if i install the wrong ROM or something it might lock my phone and i can't use my sim anymore, so my questions are:
1/ How can i know if my phone is already fully unlocked.
2/If i install a rom manually should i go with the UK version or the moroccan one?
3/ in case i install the wrong rom with the good (PDA / CSC) but with a different region, what're the risks?
(Here bellow Firmware / Service provider screenshots)

Try connect your S8 to PC, and run Samsung Switch (on PC). It should say after some minutes, that there´s a newer version of firmware
