As you may or may not know, the Samsung Galaxy S4 - I9500 is not sold in the UK & IRE which is a crying shame.
Some people have decided to import the phone for use within the UK & IRE and now have a few issues with APN setup etc., this firmware is being released to solve a few of these issues.
Enjoy...
NOTE: If there is enough appreciation for this, I will consider to release future firmware updates for BTU. This is a factory (LOW) image and it will make a wipe of cache and data.
If you like my work, maybe you would like to say thanks by buying me a beer
I9500XXUAMDK_I9500OXXAMDB_BTU.zip
Please DO NOT mirror any of my files, thank you.
Thanks for this.
Downloading now!.
Great to have you with us in the S4 forums (coming from an ex-i9100 user).
Sorry for the wait guys I had to go out by the time the file finished downloading last night so I have installed it this morning & it runs fine so far!
Anyway just ran a speedtest and my network speeds have jumped up!!! indoors here used to be patchy on three uk, but now I'm getting:
69ms ping,
4.53Mb's dl,
1.60Mb's ul
all whilst indoors, I'd love to see the outdoors performance when I next go out!.
PS: previously I was lucky to get 1Mb's dl indoors on the other fw's
and just bare in mind this includes a CSC change so you will have to setup your device again and re-download your apps, but I think it is worth the effort considering that now I personally have seen almost 5x network speed improvements!.
Thanks again to Odia!.
*EDIT*
Here's a screenshot of a Speedtest (indoors in a bad signal area) on this fw:

Well that's an whole bunch of appreciation, thank you
Yes I will update the OP, I forgot to mention this is a factory (LOW) image and it will make a wipe.
Do you think you could you make one using the lastest build, XXUAME1, or at least tell how to make our own? I take it your using a 9505 CSC from a BTU rom and combining with 9500 firmware??
Sent from my GT-I9500
I am interested in this - I9500 using T-mobile in the UK. At the moment (using the original XXUAMDK) the phone seems to give very pessimistic signal strength values - rarely over 2 or 3 bars. Will the new version help this?

While testing ME1, I found the mobile signal to be unstable, only showing a few bars when it should be full signal, also the data signal was low causing bad downloads, MDK was a lot more stable using many of the popular UK networks.
i downloaded this file , now how to flash ??
via ODIN ?
if via odin we sould extract .zip file ?
via recovery menu ( update via sdcard ) ?
must phone be rooted to apply this flashfile ??
please reply & thanks
will this get OTA updates??
Nevermind...

Region Locks Removals?
Will cooked roms remove the region-locks that most models have?
Mine is from The Netherlands (got it yesterday) but we have the European region-lock.
This means that, whenever I am outside of Europe, I will not be able to just insert another (local) sim card and enjoy using it outside Europe.
I truly hope that home cooked roms will remove the region-locks :angel:

EDIT
No need...I already found many articles...
Outrageous
It is only for the first time you activate the phone. E.g. If you are in Europe with an European phone, activate using a European sim, you are OK to use other Sims when you travel.
But if u try using a say a American sim to activate the European ph on first boot then u are ****ed.

STOCK ROM For Galaxy Tab4 8.0, Build Number KOT49H-T330NUUEU1AND4
After looking upon looking for the Stock Rom for my Galaxy Tab 4 8.0 T330NU, and spending more than I expected to pay for, since most hosting sites I paid did not even have the Rom that was advertised.. I finally successfully downloaded and I want to prevent this from happening to the next guy, so I've uploaded the Stock Rom for those who want to revert to Stock, or need it for what ever reasons they deem fit for... This stock ROM is for the US T330NU Galaxy Tab 4 8.0, Build T330NUUEU1AND4, there is another Build that also works, Build T330NUUEU1ANK1, It also worked for my device.. If you need it, send me a PM. You can only flash this VIA Odin..
I hope this helps everyone who needs this..
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95887005526787215
Edit: To those who ask me if I built this ROM... This is the 100 percent STOCK ROM directly from Samsung, I take no ownership to this image by no means.. For info please go to the Samsung Website, or Sammobile.com
Why would you pay for this when it is free on Sammobile.com. All you have to do is register. The download is incredibly slow unless you pay for an upgraded account, but the standard is free. Anyway, thanks for posting to your dropbox for a faster download.

No ITS NOT FREE at Sammobile, they have host the files on Pay sites, to which I paid over and over to get the same thing.. Some sites claimed to of had it and they were a direct link from Sammobile, but the file either wasn't there and even with the "Premium" service I had to wait like 5 hours only for the download to time out.. No my friend nothing is free from there...
I tried downloading at the Free part first, and every single one timed out just when it was finishing, I spent 30 hours looking for one that finally finished... It downloaded at a whole 100k per second.. Took 5 hours and I expected it to time out like the others..

you don't necessarily have to be a developer. maintaining access to stock roms , utilities etc towards
the purpose of developement also fits the bill.
I don't mind uploading the rom to my androidfilehost archive if that works for you.

Excellent work!
Thanks so much for hunting down this stock ROM! I have the same T330NU and have been looking for months for the correct U.S. XAR ROM, and also noticed that the "other" sites were only serving a Canadian version. Wonder where you found this one?
Also I see that Samsung is recently (trying to) push down ~13MB of updates to my tab (though they fail to be applied, probably because I'm rooted). Any idea if this ROM includes these updates, whatever they are? (I assume not, but can't hurt to hope...)

I just got this tablet as a Christmas gift..
The Stock XAR ROM was just recently released as in the last couple of days.. I searched high and low, and most claimed to of had it.. I'd pay for a couple of days of use, and then the file would vanish.. Took me 10 times to actually find it.. I had my reservations about if it was authentic.. But I got lucky.. The 2 Mirrors that Sammobile had, DID NOT have it.. That ticked me off..

I think you can grab the update with Kies... Its that it hangs when I try and connect it to my Tablet..
It maybe a Windows 8 issue.. I tried it in a Windows 7 virtual machine and it just went wacky.. Whats Kies for if it never works right?

This may explain what the update is for.. Likely a small security update

Try flashing through Odin by taking out battery. Put it in back and go to download mode by pressing volume down home power.
Untick auto reboot option in ODIN 3.09 and flash the bootloader in BL Section or modem/baseband in CP Section...
After you see "reset" screen on Odin.. take out battery again and reboot the phone to download mode and flash it again... Let the phone boot and see if it changed or not... I guess it will...

if you dont have any problems (wifi/batt /flashing etc )with the phone/rom combo youre running

Hey, kind of wondering the same
On the SGS4, it used to be a fix for wi-fi problems on newer boobloaders...
Here on Note 3, unsure...
I want to update the wife's Note 3 because since switching to LTE her network receiption is quite worse compared to 3G. But, it's not my phone so I wouldn't care if it were, but here it just got to not break anything
Anyone else tried those?

Here is the screenshoot from my Galaxy S8.
Swichted from G950U1 to G950U with Modded Odin.
If you do like this then you need 3 update file.

2. CRL Update (https://firmware.science/)
3. DRL6 update (https://firmware.science/)

You may have to update some Samsung apps for them to work. Also, night mode doesn't fully work (some Samsung apps not included in it). Also, much faster and smoother; however, slightly faster battery drain for me. All the new software is a plus though. The important bugs are similar to bugs on official betas for s9.

Thanks for the update. I will probably wait and stay on Oreo for now, but I will admit, my fingers are itching and I'm very tempted to give this leak a try. Then the part of my brain ? that handles logic and common sense kicks in again and tell me to wait. :laugh:
My wifi is connecting but not transferring any data. Any ideas?

It will be woking, but you need Multi CSC and Combination Files Bit 5 for changing CSC.
Any chance there will come a working version for exynos models? (G950F) ...
Hi, is there T-Mobile bloatware? Like boot screen and apps?

If anybody can help with some advice I'd greatly appreciate it!
Can anyone help me? Odin gives no errors codes it only says failed 1

I would suggest you using modded odin. I also had an unlocked snapdragon S8 US variant SMG950U1 as well and when I flashed the Odin files for CRK1 my device became a Verizon S8 model SMG950U...CRK1 (no longer unlocked but has bloatware). Once the base model is CRK1, you have to download 2 update.zip files. CRK1 to CRL1 and CRL1 to DRL6.
Follow the instructions from the link provided from OP on the first post.
For any who want it I have found the Thom Browne firmware bootloader version 2. I wanted to share this for free because I have found so many websites that are actually charging money to download this firmware that they didn't even have a hand in creating. I hate when people seek to profit from something they don't really own. They got it free, and charge everyone else. I am gonna upload it to G Drive for any who want to try it out. Some say it's boring but it's pretty smooth if you ask me. No root so gotta make the best of things lol
Here it is uploaded to my GDrive
XAA-F711U1TBU2AUI4-20210929144401.zip
drive.google.com
Extract files and flash using Odin.
THIS VERSION IS ONLY FOR F711U OR F711U1 VARIANTS!!
U1 Firmware will update to October security patch.
UPDATE!! Here is the link for the F711B /F711N variants.

This is only for the F711U and F711U1 variants. Double check your model number before you do anything. I believe using Home CSC instead of CSC retains data
I just got an update so now its on October security patch

Hey my friend I found the firmware for your model if you like. I am downloading it now. Upload speed is a bit slow at my house but should be ready in a few hours
OP updated with international variant TB firmware
Alright, probably a stupid question... but it's been a long time since I've dealt with a Samsung phone. I've got the standard F711U1 variant and want to flash this firmware. I'm on the October patch already, assuming this can be flashed over top? This won't trip Knox right? Do I have to enable OEM unlocking to flash a stock firmware?

This can be flashed. Not on top per se but can be flashed. This has September patch but will update to October after you set it all up. Make a backup just in case. This won't trip Knox at all and no you don't have to enable oem unlocking since this is flashed in download mode. But its best to remove fingerprints, lock code and Google account before flashing
Worked like a charm! Just did a quick factory reset before hand and flashed. Thanks a ton!
Thanks, im going to try it. Hope it works for me. I see the csc code is from United Kigdom. wish it were multi. Mine is TPA
just flashed and it seems make no difference on my factory unlocked Z flip3. I wonder if i did anything wrong.

If you see the Thom Browne bootscreen and the theme when it boots up to the home screen then you got it right.

So far I havent found any thing interesting. Besides a wallpaper, and starting animation, a white theme,. The rest is the same. I dont know about performance. I just began to use it. In a couple of days I will notice the difference, if there is one. Anyway I dont intend to be ungrateful with bryanpen77
