Going back to 5.0.2 from 5.1.1? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed 5.1.1 a few days ago and it has been pretty bad, for some reason whenever I flash France firmwares, my mobile data gets capped to 67 kb/s max, it doesn't happen at all on any other firmware I try, I tried settings, apn's etc, nothing has helped, now i want to flash back to 5.0.2, I downloaded four 5.0.2 firmwares and none of them work, apparently you cannot downgrade with odin (?), Is there any way out of 5.1.1? Thanks

not posible at all. Try to do a factory reset. Sorry mate.

I guess you will have to wait for the proper version of 5.1.1 to your phone to be released.

It is always nad when i see someone having problems because of flashing other country firmware ... But to be honest there should be included possibility to uninstall the last update to firmware from settings ... But I don't think that even if it would be asked from each and evry Samsung owner on the planet that Samsung or any other would give that ... Not even Google ...

Just be patient and wait for Sammobile to post the 5.1.1 update specific to your country. You can start from there.

I hope soon they will give it more to countries. ....
As i have noticed that they updated s4 in some countries ...

[Resolved] Confused after flashing kitkat rom sm-n9005

Hello guys. It's ma first time writing a post. Sorry if it's not the right place for it. So here's my story:
I am from Greece. I bought a note 3 sm-n9005 LTE. It came with 4.3 jelly. After I rooted with the wrong way messing up with the knox warranty. 0×1. I have no problem with that.
A few days ago cause I couldn't wait for the official kitkat, I flashed woth odin XXUEBN4 but from France XEF. everything seems to work fine.
Should I have to flash anything else more?
Was bad flashing another country's rom??
Later I was curious what will happen if I flash the GERMAN ROM. I had problems cause a message came PROBLEM WITH THE FIRMWARE UPGRADE. then I flashed again the XEF ( FRANCE) one.
How to root? I used cf auto root but when I tried to turn it on there was a problem with the recovery. So I flashed again the France rom again. Now I am OK.
Where is my mistake?
Waiting for your worthing answers
Thanks
Steve!

G920F flashing update with odin

Hello everyone. I joined Galaxy S6 community today with the phone that I bought from a my who went to Dubai. It's G920F. It currently have 5.0.2 with baseband G920FXXU1AOE3. I'm planning to download stock 5.1.1 rom from Samfirmware and flash it through Odin. I know that It won't trip knox but I wonder if there will be any problems caused by different region roms. I also want to learn If using the device in another region block ota updates? Or I also wonder if flashing another stock rom will block ota updates. Since it's the first android device I plan to use without root, I am a bit cautious about OTA updates.
I also wonder if shutter speed settings came with 5.1.1. I tried Camera FV5 and couldn't find them
I'm thinking to flash Netherlands rom.
Thank you for answering.
Flashing ROMs via odin won't trip knox. You recieve OTA updates anywhere around the world irregardless of ROM as long as its stock and knox not tripped. Here's Dubai ROM:

SM-G920F from Spain got G920FXXU2COH2

Hi,
i've just bought a pre-ordered Samsung Galaxy S6 SM-G920F when it was first launched. I didn't buy it to any mobile carrier, i got it through a Samsung point of sale in Spain called El Corte Inglés. Since then i've just been updating the firmware through OTA but today an update with baseband G920FXXU2COH2 got installed which i think it's from a french version. Could someone tell me if this is wrong? Also i would like to know if would it be safe to flash the G920FXXU2BOGB (Spain phe region) from Sammobile? I'm wondering if this could lead to issues because of being a downgrade.
I just want the stock firmware without mobile carrier modification which came with the mobile device.
Thanks a lot in advanced.
Finally i downloaded G920FXXU2BOGB_G920FPHE2BOGB_G920FXXU2BOGF_HOME.tar and flashed it through Odin but don't know why it still keeps annoying me about the G920FXXU2COH2 update. Which i think belongs to a French mobile carrier, it also change some icons to the ones shown in the next image http://i57.tinypic.com/2ms4kfq.png

I think you got the update to the latest 5.1.1, which has some features from the newer TW version (Note 5 and Edge Plus), the icons being one of them. The only thing that you should care about is that you don't have the carrier's boot animation or carrier's bloatware. If you don't have those then just enjoy the update!
Thank u very much Cloxed.
By the way, i hate the new TW icons it doesn't correspond with the rest of the icons.

Update for SM-P905 (baseband no: P905XXUANA7 build no: P905XXUANC3) ?

Hi guys,
Am I mistaken or is this the last samsung note pro in the known universe to receive an update to lollipop? I understand it's been a long wait for all note pro users. Does anyone here have an idea when this particular model SM-P905 (baseband no: P905XXUANA7 build no: P905XXUANC3) will receive an update?
Chris
why wouldn't you use odin ?!

Unless I've missed something, the firmware for my specific model isn't available from sammobile, so I can't use odin to update.

I guess you don't have to flash a specific firmware since you have the international 905 model !!
Mine was from italy and i flashed UAE firmware without problems !!

Oh. I feel so newb (And I'm a tech guy...awkward....lol). Mine is running stock kitkat (4.4.2). I rooted it a while back, but so far, have not flashed it with any rom. Correct me if I'm wrong - international version means that all the LTE/radio bands are unlocked? I can't flash it with Deodex.Root.Xposed, as I'm not running stock lollipop. Which rom did u flash yours with?
Chris
You should be able to use Odin to flash any of the released 905 version lollipop updates from sammonbile. You will lose your root however.

Thanks for the link, however, I live in Australia, so according to sammobile, there's no lollipop firmware for this country:

Since your going to flash it yourself just choose any region (pick one thats on 5.1.1) and flash that. Then just change the language and time zone settings during set up and you should be good to go. Many US customers with the 905 used this method when other countries were getting the original 5.0.1 update before them. Worked fine.

Thanks for the info. Cool. I'll keep an eye out for 5.1.1. If I'm not mistaken, most are 5.0.2 at the moment, except AT&T.

GT-N8000 update question

Hello,
I've had my GT-N8000 since 2013 it has 3G option and is ulocked.
I remember when i got it it had a baseband N8000XXALI3, i remember cos I wrote it on the box! Back then it had the very first rom edition of 4.0 something and wanted to update the firmware but no updates were available at the time. I waited a couple of months and after that i flashed on it the german 4.1.2 stock rom using Odin. My Tablet is unlocked so all went well and it still runs very well. It's not rooted.
Currently my tablet has the following info:
AP: N8000XXCMA1
CP: N8000XXCLL1
CSC: N8000XACMA1
Now when looking for updates, none show up on OTA or KIES, and i really need to update to the latest official rom which as I understand is 4.4 but I don't know which file to download. Can you help me? Anything I need to do before that? Backup a Nand or EFS? I don't really know what those are!
Any advice on which rom to use and keep the s-pen functionality and 3G? Are there any new roms for marshmallow?
Thank you kindly in advance.

Baseband is modem not firmware .
Thank you for replying,
I have already went to that page and I wanted to make sure which rom to download, there are many 4.4.2 but none of them are for my country. And to tell you the truth, this tablet was offered to me as a gift back then from overseas and I'm not sure of its country of origin. I there a way to know that?
So I'm not sure which rom to download and flash without messing something up!
Sorry for the noob questions, the more details you can provide will be appreciated. And thanks again.
Download for your location/network/model.

My device is unlocked as in not bound to a cell carrier and neither my location nor my provider are available in that list of roms.
In that case what's the best option?
Thank you kindly.
