What Firmware for my Samsung Tab S? - General Questions and Answers

Hi all..
I am new to this web site, so hope you guys will help me..
I have a Samsung Tab S (SM T-800)..
Its really really slow, i have tried to reset to factory settings, but it didnt help..
I have read that it may help to, downgrade to Kitkat... Is it true??
Can someone help me, to find the right Kitkat Firmware.. My build-number is T800XXU1CPK2..
I found this on Sammobile
2014-07-13 Nordic countries 4.4.2 T800XXU1ANFB T800NEE1ANF2
2014-06-26 Nordic countries 4.4.2 T800XXU1ANF8 T800NEE1ANF2

How do i see, which one i need, or can i use all 3?
Sorry for my bad english.
Best regards.

You basically can install any of these firmwares, the only difference between them must be the security patches since there's no 5.0 firmware for Tab S. I would recommend the latest one if you need to use it as a regular tablet. But SamMobile is not the best place to download firmware from because they limit the load speed for free users. They suggest you to buy a premium membership and downoad it faster, but the speeds still will not be very fast. I used SamFirm recently to download firmware. The speed was around 1.5 Mb/s which is decent for a 1.5Gb firmware file, it downloaded pretty quickly.

Well, i bought my phone here in the Philippines. Also i came across a thailand firmware while searching and it matches mine, but the link is not available anymore.
So if you can find/give a stock firmware for me it will really help me a lot.
p.s. i cant post links yet so google "s7500dxlb1" and view the one that says "S7500DXLB1 Android 2.3.6 Thailand Firmware Download" to see the link im talking about.

Don't be worry.
I live in Taiwan but I can flash even German version( I've tried before)
This firmware is the latest. I think your version is older one. Samsung released several version to make it stable, so the latest version is the stablest version and it will also add some new features.
Actually, all S7500 firmware is suitable but you have to notice that your area.
Because I found I flash German 2.3.6 stock firmware and I cannot have stock Chinese keyboard in it.
Flash your country version is the best choice.
p.s. if you flash from a custom rom, don't forget to back up data you want and do factory reset. it will make your S7500 work like a new phone
thanks a lot

I'm trying to find the latest firmware available for my S6 international model.

Sammobile really has the most rediculous registration form I've ever seen. The Captcha is impossible to pass through. I tried it multiple times and could't register for this site. Of course you have to be logged in to be able to get any kind of support so that's thoroughly thought through
Any other way to download the latest firmware other than to sit and wait for the OTA?

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.
Sent from my SM-N930F using XDA-Developers Legacy app
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.

SM-G530H from Brazil, can I use ROM from Russia?

Good evening,
I have this phone running 4.4.4 customized by a carrier, I would like a stock rom, preferably 5.0.2. I've found this one from Russia in SamMobile, but it says Download Unavailable. Assuming I can use it, where can I find a mirror?
Thank you!
Try this

Hi there,
Try and use this website and its much better than sam mobile as that website limits the download speed.

Thank you for your help! I end up putting the 5.0.2 from Russia, too bad there doesn't seem to have a stock rom (non carrier customized) for this phone for Brazil, I could only find 4.4.4 but non stock
