Hello, I have a problem with my SGS8 + (G955F), unfortunately I'm not the first owner ... I have FW 7.0 (G955FXXU1AQDD) .. and I did not get any OTA updates, manual check: The system is up to date. When I check sammobile 8.0 is for all countries.
Does anyone have a similar problem? My cellphone is not branding. Is some way to fix without using odin?
Thanks for any information and answer

Hi there:
For people intending to upgrade their GTN8000 bought from a region other than Germany to the officially released 4.1.1 JB, From what I have read i just concluded the following :
1- the only way to do the upgrade is via Odin
2- after performing the upgrade you won't be able to receive any new updates OTA or via Kies.. The only way for any future update will be only via Odin.
3-after getting the upgrade you won't be able to sign with your Samsung account because it's linked to your region
My questions areb
1- is that true?
2- and if all that happened, do we have any smart ways to overcome other than to wait for our region release?
Appreciate your replies mates
Me and hundreds of more people are awaiting for some clear advices.
You won't get ota, butt when the jb update comes out for your region just flash it with odin and you'll have ota again.

You can always update with odin and reset your csc to Germany by opening phone app and typing *#272*imei# resetting csc should make your Note believe it is from Germany and should allow updating via kies. WORD OF WARNING resetting your csc will wipe apps and data.

I own Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 NT-8000 and live in country where OTA updates are not available yet. Probably they will never be So I want to update FW manually through ODIN. I've read many how to manuals but still not sure if I upgrade new SAMSUNG FW in region where It is not still available will be still able to make calls and use data services. I will be upgrading last original FW by Samsung 4.1.2. And which FW should i use ? Internetional Thx for any suggestions.
Yes you can update using ODIN bother the tutorial and the firmware can be found on the links in my signature.
I would suggest use the UK 8010 Rom, 4.1.2 is not available for your device the one which is there is for 8000 it can work but will not suggest
Thanks for replay i want to upgrade last supported fw it is 4.1.1. With 4.1.2 that was misstake. I got rooted my device so first i should to unistall supersu thant restore original loader used to install supersu than reset my device to default settings and perform fw update.
you can use the n8000 rom. I have used it on my n8010 with no problems at all everything working great. Flashed with cwm 6.0.2.3, only thing is you will have telephone features that that wont work and your device model will change from 8010 to 8000

Im still not sure about 2 things. First as I mentioned in previous topic, I have performed ClockworkMod Recovery through ODIN before rooting . should I first restore previous recovery mod and then upgrade firmware?
Is this FW suitable for my device base on img which i post in topic above?

Or should I install this one ?
Mate, it is the stock German rom. Either link will get you the same rom. There is a new German 4.1.2 rom out that gets rid of the exynos exploit.
You can find ALL stock roms at sammobile.com in the firmware section(you will need to register to download).
You need to unzip the file first, don't try to flash with CWM as IT WON'T WORK. You flash the .tar file in the PDA section of ODIN. MAKE SURE RE-PARTITION IN ODIN IS UNTICKED... Let the whole procedure finish, disconnecting throughout the flashing process will result in a brick.You will need to re-root the tablet after this.
On the other hand, you can flash the tar file in Mobile ODIN on the tablet itself and maintain root doing this.
Hi Guys,
I've bought a Galaxy S6 (SM-G920i) on B&H unlocked, and it comes with an Australian firmware (SPARK) 5.1.1.
I've downloaded an unbranded firmware from sam, but I can't installed. It has failed before instalation begins.
Has this firmware (SPARK) any kind of lock that can't allow me to install an unbranded firmware? I want to stay with the phone stock and with an unbranded version of 6.0.1.
If anyone can give me a clue, I'll really appreciate it!
Regards,
Power

check your csc, it may need to be changed if spark has not as yet released a 6.0.1 upgrade.

Thanks for your reply Cosmic! I'm trying to push the firmware via Odin. I think CSC should not a problem at this point. I can't understand why I can't flash an stock firmware via Odin. I'm starting to think that it has any kind of lock.
Anyone had the same experience than me?
Thanks in advance,

Hello, this is S7 edge forum, the one you are asking about is s7 , here is the link to your forum https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7
Btw, you should be able to install playstore manually without any problem or reflash latest chinese open market firmware using updato or sammobile, then again try installing playstore manually, as for as language problem, i will give you screenshots and tap the choices accordingly to choose or add language.

Hello shah
Thanks for your response and heads up.
My problem is not general language setting, that is already set to English US. All I have well most is Chinese stuff and words on the folders in the menu like WeChat, Alipay, Baidu Map, Weibo.
I have tried installing FB, whatsapp etc.....but with no luck.
I followed some direction to flash using Odin but I got a message Re-Partition operation failed.
Can you help me further please?

Thats a snapdragon variant for chinese open market, you should manually download and install play store, you can also manually install whatsapp and fb, if they dont install correctly you should factory reset and then try again. Keep in mind that you should only flash the corresponding firmware for your model, can you tell me which firmware you tried flashing that gave error? Also tell me which android version you were before flashing and did you choose HOME CSC or Normal CSC in csc tab of odin?

You are using latest firmware already, may be try reflashing your firmware with the latest odin , it should flash correctly, if it gives error again, do emergency software recovery in smartswitch. Also that chinese language should not show in any app when you select english as default phone language. Other than the app itself changing its language to chinese, then you need to change language in that app settings.

How do I go about doing emergency software recovery in smartswitch?

Should work, but IDK if turkish language is included. And if you want to keep your data, make sure to use Home_CSC file in CSC section of Odin.
BTW you can check and download Samsung firmware files with Frija.
