Need help with updating firmware on Samsung Galaxy S5 - General Questions and Answers

Hello all, I have an issue that I haven't managed to find an answer for on previous forum searches here and elsewhere, the problem is this: I have a Galaxy S5 that has a Tracfone model number, and the latest software version is Android 4.4.2. This is problematic, because I can't use a substantial amount of apps on 4.4.2. Is there any way to flash the firmware so that I can update my OS version?
Model Number: SM-S902L
Carrier: Tracfone

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S/SHW-M110S

Hi guys. My girlfriend got a Samsung Galaxy S phone from Korea but recently it's get terribly slow so I have a couple of questions regarding this issue. As I researched online, it seems that it's just normal for this model.
It's from SK Telecom and the model number is SHW-M110S.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S/SHW-M110S
*Firmware version is 2.3.6
*Baseband version is M110S.WA03.0942.ST
*Kernel version is 2.6.35.7
The questions are:
Do I use the same Gingerbread version for this model to reinstall the phone or can I use any other European stock Samsung firmwares for Galaxy S1?
Could you please provide me with some sort of a guidance or previous (if any) xda forum post regarding this topic.
It just seems a bit hard to do all of this firmware business so I would really appreciate any replies. Thanks in advance! :good:

[Completed] [Q] cant understand what version i have and how to update to kitkat

hello i bought galaxy s4 via aliexpress i been told its i9500 but when i tried to update via kies or FOTA it saying that its the last firmware
can you tell me by this info how can i upgrade it to kitkat? and if not how to install custom roms?
It seems like someone did a Frankenstine Operation on the Phone.
Based on the Firmware on there, it appears like this is an International Galaxy S4. If so, please post in [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly. so that we are sure that is the device.
Based on your other Screenshot, your Bootloader is that of AT&T Canada Bell Galaxy S4 North American Version. If so, please post in Stupid Questions Thread - No question too stupid!
It is very crucial to not flash the wrong firmware as that would certainly Brick your Phone for good.
Once correct variant is confirmed, you might be able to get the correct Stock Firmware for your device.
If I really REALLY have to guess, since Product and Device code can be manipulated in the Rom, I'd trust the Bootloader, more to identify what it really is. And in your case that points to AT&T S4.

Hello, this is herna from XDA Assist.
I can´t provide you any kind of rooting mode, since I don´t have the device.
You said you saw a few threads for rooting methods, so if you see that most of users that post in those threads says it´s working, I don´t see why you should not try.
On the end, if I had to recommend I went to give you the same link for the threads that you may have visited, so on the end, you will be finishing on trying those methods.
I´ll move this thread to the help section inside Note Edge forum, and there you will get opinions from all users using the same device than you, that probably will have them devices already rooted.
Cheers!

[Completed] Rooting SPH-710T

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3. The carrier is Virgin Mobile. They are on the Sprint Network. My model is the SPH-L710T. The build number is KOT49H.L710TVPUOAOF2. It's currently running Kit Kat 4.4.2.
I have seen/read a successful rooting protocol for the SPH-710 but none for my particular model.
If anyone can point me to a successful rooting protocol and ROM for my particular phone, I'd be most appreciative.
Thanks in advance.

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
As you may have already found out, there is an XDA area dedicated to the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3-sprint but not everything there applies to the SPH-L710T. I suggest you post your question with all relevant details there where the experts familiar with your device might be best able to guide you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search a thttp://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=SPH-L710T which might be worth reviewing.
Good luck!
