My note model is a Sm-n910h UNLOCKED by that it means it accepts any software despite the country correct ? however what i noticed was that i m stuck on 4.4.4 without an option to update I checked on sammobile and an update was available however There is one thing concearning me and that is that the update has different PDA Values and CSS . Mines being​PDA N910HXXU1ANK5

While the update has

CSC N910HUUB1BOB2
If i flash this new room on my phone what happens ?
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. You need to be very careful when considering using firmware that isn't from your exact variant, it'd be best to ask the experts in the Note 4 help thread here:

Hello,
i have a galaxy note 4 sm-n910c. 8 am drom pakistan and the region of my phone is also pk. I recently installed lollipop of a different region but same model. It is working fine but the only problem i am having is the phone restarts on after every 3rd day. can anyone give me a solution to this? Someone told me tht some app is conflicting with it so i have uninstalled all the apps. Cleaned the cache as well.
One more thing is that if i downgrade it back to 4.4.4 would there be any problems or risks?
Hi, thank you for using XDA assist. The best palce to get answers is in your device's specific forum here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4 For your specific problem try asking here, http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/help/noob-friendly-question-t2866810
This is my first post and am completely new to smart phones, and have got out of my depth. I bought a new Samsung S2 i9100 from China about 6 months ago. The GPS stopped working (something I discover from another thread here, is not uncommon), and I tried to update the firmware using Odin.
This failed and the phone is now soft bricked as I understand it, as I learnt from another thread here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/how-to-replace-chinese-firmware-t1192575 ) that Chinese Samsung phones cannot be flashed with European firmware.
I have looked on samsung.com and Sammobile and the original firmware is not listed anywhere (I9100ZCKG4). I have tried installing, using Odin, CWM Recovery and the stock firmware listed on samsung.com for China, but both fail.
I have read the thread on this site on this issue and following suggestions from here this takes via Chinese sites http://bbs.gfan.com/android-2099143-1-1.html and then I eventually end up at http://bbs.gfan.com/android-4920184-1-1.html where I think there is a link to the firmware I9100ZCKG4. The link takes me to http://115.com/5lb/ and neither myself of Google translate are unable to make any sense of this page, and I cannot get any further.
The other problem is that I think I enabled USB debugging before starting ,but now cannot be sure.
Maybe I have learnt and expensive lesson, but any help would be most welcome, especially if expressed in terms a beginner is likely to understand.

I have Note 4 from Europe
I have Rooted it and applied a nice cooked ROM from this great website.
Once I have install my SIM (first time since I have the phone), it comes with the SIM NETWORK LOCK.
Now, how com it is like that if i have ROOT and ROM not from Sumsung?
I need help on that as the prices out there are $35-$66
Can someone help? I have the IMEI and model (910C)
Many thanks to this great site and people

Hello, and welcome to XDA!
SIM unlocks are completely separate from actions performed by rooting, or installing custom ROM's, unfortunately. Also, you may find that if you get an unlock code, it will not work while running said custom ROM (I personally ran into this problem before). Samsung's are horrible for unlock code prices, but if you shop around you may find a good deal from a trusted source.
Ideas for that can be asked through the following thread, where your device experts are found:
> Samsung Galaxy Note 4 > Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting > [NOOB FRIENDLY] Ask the question!
Please note, you will need to have an XDA account to be able to post there.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
I use Samsung Note 4 N910G. recently i changed my device's region from SIngapore to Bangladesh with new firmware Marshmallow 6.0.1. I've used Odin to update my phone. It worked really well.

But still facing problem. now i want to erase all my data, even current os and then want to install a new firmware. please anyone tell my how should i do it? :'(
