Hey there,
I was wondering whether anyone could help me figure out whether I've missed a firmware update at some point. I'm on Three in the UK (H3G) and because my battery life is so bad right now, I was wondering if I've missed a firmware update that may have addressed that issue.
I'm not sure where I'm meant to look to get the information but I am on 5.1.1 - the Baseband version is G920FXXU2BOGE and the Build number is LMY47X.G920FXXU2BOG8.
If there's any more information you need from my settings let me know. My phone is not rooted.
Thanks!

Was this a software update? I just checked for a software update and it's installing one now. I didn't get a notification there was one. I didn't think the firmware was updated via the software update?
I have had nothing but trouble after the update
It seems to turn volte on with the update and drains battery like crazy on 4g so now I have to use it on H+ instead
Aslo I noticed that at 100% battery it only shows 10 hours now instead of the usual 17 hours
so not quiet happy
I've noticed my Wifi absolutely kills the battery with this update. Have to use it on H+ currently. Don't get full 4G in my house. For some reason Messenger has been wrecking my battery even though I haven't used it, as well as Google Play Services. Had 1hr 39m screentime and already at 56%. :/ think I might need to restore after all as it doesn't look like it's got any better with the update.
same here, i performed the update last week and the battery life has become a joke. If anyone is reading this and has not yet done this update - I would not bother!
I spoke to three and Samsung about this update because cel standby was using 40% of battery, it drained really fast. Samsung advice a factory reset and that's sorted it battery now is better than before the update,though I see there's yet another update waiting in the wings which France is getting now
I did not have any problem with battery after the above update, I did wipe cache though, not factory reset.

You will get ur answer Here
As u can see MC3 is for Austria, released on 25th March 13 n MD6 is for East Asian countries released on 26th April 13
Well, as for me. The newer one does not feeeze anymore compared to the older one which forced you to restart when an app was supposed to be force closed.
Also minor chnages like a newer Polaris Office and etc.

I got mine from South Africa and I'm two updates behind too. Im seriously considering about rooting and flashing my s4 now. Its a shame because I love the stock rom, but if the updates are coming in so slow, and we get behind by another update, I definitely am flashing.
On a side note, maybe samsung will roll out updates to other areas using the most updated firmwares?

You can flash the new german firmware and your csc will be changed to DBT and you will receive updates more often.

That's not a changelist. Changelist is the little string of numbers. What you're referring to is the typical changelog.
waiting more info!
I asked for the changelist in the thread on android-hilfe
And now MF8 has gone

Due to this?? Sorry I am a noob poster and cant post link.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 might come with a large number of new features, but it seems that one of the new features contains a serious smishing (SMS phishing) flaw. Samsung's "cloud backup" feature was found to be improperly secured, and can exploited by malicious software to send fraudulent or fake SMS messages while pretending to be the identify of any contact or organization, without the owner of the phone realizing.
This exploit was discovered by Chinese Internet security firm Qihoo. According to Qihoo, Samsung has already been notified of this issue, and is already in the process of fixing the issue. Qihoo also added that users can avoid being exploited by this vulnerability by turning off the "cloud backup" feature when it's not being used. A temporary fix has also been made by Qihoo 360, and can be deactivated once the security flaw has been patched. Current Samsung Galaxy S4 users of Qihoo's latest Android app are protected against this exploit.
Wonder how long it takes for us Nords to get it.

Hey,
There is a new firmware 5.0 for our Note 3 : N9005XXUGPOF3
CSC : NEE
Anyone has tried it ?
Changelist is lower than the KSA Version
PDA: N9005XXUGPOF3 CSC: N9005NEEGPOF3 CHANGELIST: 4935104 BUILD DATE: 17.06.2015
PDA: N9005XXUGBOEA CSC: N9005OJVGBOE4 CHANGELIST: 5020004 BUILD DATE: 29.05.2015
Yea but it's builed after BOEA (KSA)
Changelist is more important, not the build date!!!
Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
And this is lower- changelist
I've seen several official roms released with different rom and kernel filesizes and with same changelist.
Highest changelist may not be the latest version of Android, if the required changes are for specific countries only.
I need the Modem and Bootloader from this rom please.
There is a newer one (higher changelist) and is latest Brazilian's one (see screenshot)
I installed the new firmware. N9005XXUGPOF3_N9005NEEGPOF3_NEE
first impression:
* stable
* google applications have been updated to the latest version
I do not care changelog number.
it's just a number and i don't know what criteria is placed.
I watch the build data and this firmware is the latest. ( Build date : Wed, 17 Jun 2015 09:30:11 +0000 )
Do you know if I can downgrade from this rom to Kitkat ?
Does this update get rid of the delay while clearing recent apps? Heard the last Indian update for Exynos units solved the problem (or at least minimised it), so wondering whether this one does that or not.
Unified Daemon bug is still in this Rom... :/
Are you sure about the Unified Daemon bug? I installed the Nordic ROM two days ago, and usage only shows 17KB. Fair enough on the first day battery drain was fast, but it seems to be settling down and has now lasted longer. Pulled it off charge this morning and after four hours of emailing, surfing, and watching a Netflix movie battery is at 90%.
And for devilsdouble , yes it does get rid of the delay clearing recent apps. I found that annoying too.

Exactly. It's pointless to think that Samsung would build something later in time with a lower changelist. The only difference in changelist is different region, or Carrier implementations. XXU (Europe, or EMEA in a way) has most of the attention, i've always noticed changelist number differences with the Americas version (Brazil, and mostly South America) and also the Asian ones (Malaysia, Philippines, Taiwan, Singapore and Honk-Kong). All that means is that Samsung has split this in to three pools of maintenance who seem to merge once in a while.
Basically i think it's useless to compare the changelist from different regions, for the sake of Modem/Baseband/CSC compatibility, i'd always go with the region your phone is made for initially.
EDIT: anyone got a mirror yet?
I've recieved an official update on my Note3, now my baseband /bootloader /pda/ is N9005XXUGPOF3, while the CSC is N9005NEEGPOF3. I live in Italy
The phone is still stable and smooth,but the battery leakage is crazy.
I would like to root the phone and install twrp to put on some custom rom. Does anybody know if and how I can do it?
I was checking about chainfire root method and i have to choose one of those too,
SM-N9005 (International Qualcomm): CF-Auto-Root-hlte-hltexx-smn9005.zip
(only works on 4.4 bootloaders, if you're still on 4.3 use the old version which you can find here:...)
Which is my bootloader version at this time?
Can I use safely the 4.4 bootloader version?
How should i procede to root the phone?
Why starting a new thread when there's already one?

Guys,
I am using a ZTO ROM (Brazil) but I am willing to use a Nordic ROM. Is it safe to try it? I mean, there any difference about partitions or baseband that I gonna have difficulties to come back to ZTO anytime?
Hi,
I am getting somewhat unhappy with the lack of official updates for my unlocked SM-G920F (DBT) S6, which I bought from Amazon Germany. Looks like the UK variants have a much more recent BTU firmware dated January 2016, while mine is stuck with October 2015 update.
PhoneInfo shows the following:
Product code: SM-G920FZKADBT
Original CSC: DBT
Firmware's CSC: DBT
Active CSC: DBT
Bootloader: G920FXXU3COI9
PDA: G920FXXU3COI9
CSC: G920FDBT3COI6
Baseband: G920FXXU3COI9
Would it be possible for me to flash the latest official BTU firmware without tripping Knox?
Many thanks for your comments!
Yes.

Many thanks for your response! This is a good news
Do I need to change CSC somehow, or would it be sufficient to just flash the latest BTU firmware with Odin?

Switching is not going to help you as the BTU version is just as old as the DBT version. COI9 is the latest release for both countries.
You will have no benefit by switching to BTU.
It seems that since October, Samsung has only updated the carrier versions of their builds and not the Open/carrier independent versions.
There is one notable exception, which is the NEE version for Denmark/Sweden. This at least has the security updates dated Dec. 1 and is, aside from Marshmallow, the best you can do for the SM-G920F.
What I did was just flash NEE on top of the existing firmware (in my case BTU). That provides a mixed CSC version for the time being but can be healed by flashing BTU again, when Samsung finally comes out with a new firmware.
What I would recommend for you to do is to complain with Samsung. I have emailed them and made it clear that they promised monthly security updates in August 2015. Their promise is what prompted me to purchase the Samsung S6 in September. After the purchase, they delivered exactly one monthly update for it, then 4 months of delivering nothing.
They have not kept their promise and I suggest you (and everyone else who is upset by this) let them know. In my case I have also asked them for a return of the phone.
This is also something I will now attempt to initiate through my dealer.

You are right, the latest BTU is the same G920FXXU3COI9 :|
I already complained to Samsung twice, the last time was yesterday, but they were not forthcoming. I also bought the device hoping for the monthly updates, but didn't get any since October 2015.
And it's only going to get worst for updates as they be very few & far between for the S6 this year once the S7 is launched.
Yeah, this is kinda sad.

Quite honestly the S6 is the best phone I've ever used and I would love to keep it. But the update policy, especially considering the promise Samsung made, is not acceptable. I'll keep you updated on my attempts at returning it.

Thanks! I thought about returning mine, but won't even try: it's easily one of the best phones for the money, the only alternative for me would be an iPhone 6/6s, and I'm not prepared to go that route
hey, of course you can flash btu firmware on german handset. that's what i always do after buying samsung's phone. it's the cleanest one with no bloat.

I just received a response from Samsung basically telling me to f*ck off and contact a local repair shop. Sent them the following:
Hi,
Many thanks for your response! Unfortunately, my location (Cyprus) is not on the list. Moreover, I own a factory unlocked and carrier-independent EU version sourced from Germany (DBT), which does not depend on the local carriers.
As far as I can see, the latest update for Galaxy S6 (DBT), as well as for the UK unlocked and unbranded version of Galaxy S6 (BTU), is G920FXXU3COI9, dated October and September 2015 respectively - I checked Sammobile, XDA forums and other Internet resources to verify this. My understanding is that no further updates have been released to the aforementioned unlocked and unbranded EU versions, either DBT or BTU, thus my question is: where are the November 2015, December 2015 and January 2016 security updates promised by Samsung and "released" on paper?
I bought the device based on the promise that it would get frequent security updates, only to face another letdown by Samsung. I would appreciate an explanation and an estimate of when the above updates will become available to my device.
Thanks!

According to Samsung its not released in UK as its carrier dependent even if you purchased it through Samsung directly.
I have told them I'm not happy after being told will get regular updates and these are supposed to be every quarter at most.
Absolutely disgusting that purchasers are being treated like this still.
It doesn't support Volte, does it?
