How to flash stock firmware? Does country matter? - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

US based user. Recently purchased international N7100. Says" Deutsch" on a sticker on the box, so I assume it is German based. I want to flash back my stock rom(rooted prior), does the country of orgin matter?
Do I have to locate my EXACT stock, german rom? Also, how do I know for sure, the orgin of my phone? is that info on the box anywhere?
Thanks!

[Q] Help! Flashing a French model to UK stock

So I received my Arc S today in the UK, and it's a French model - I knew it'd be a European model of some sort when I ordered, so that's fine.
But even though I've set the language to English, I'm still finding a few things in French and it seems like my UK network can't detect what phone I have, and I'm unable to get a data connection.
Can someone tell me if it's possible to flash a generic stock or O2-UK stock rom to it please? I used to have a HTC Sensation and have experience rooting and custom rom'ing with that. My current build number is 4.0.2.A.0.42.
Do I root and flash the stock firmware from this page?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204302
So to build number 4.0.A.2.368, to be clear. Will that give me all the generic/UK stock options instead of French video services, Canal+ and Jeux Gameloft?! I really don't need a custom rom, in fact I want it to be as much like I've just bought it from a UK supply as possible and don't even need rooting or the bootloader unlocked at the end of it if that can be avoided.
Your help is much appreciated in advance!

Thanks! It doesn't seem to have a generic UK firmware - only Central Europe 1/2/3 without listing the difference - but I've emailed Wotanserver to see if they can advise.
Is their method safe, do you know?

[Q] Which i9192 modem to use in Europe?

Hi all,
I have a Galaxy S3 already and have been following this forum for a while, but I have never had problems with it as with this one. It's about my Galaxy S4 mini DUOS (i9192). I've bough the phone from an unofficial seller because i9192 was never supposed to be imported in Croatia (EU). The phone came with I9192XXUAMF7 build and modem. Today I've expereinced that the phone was running fine but I couldn't make any calls and nobody could call me untill I've taken out the battery and SIM. It was runnign on one SIM only. Network was OK and signal was full. I' would like to change the modem to see if that's the problem.
My question is - has anyone experienced anything similar or has changed the XXUAMF7 modem? I'm located in Croatia (Europe) and the closest country modem localisation is Ukraine. Should I change it to Ukraine modem?

Thanks for the notice! I have SGS 3 and it has no Knox bootloaders so I'm not familiar with it but from what I've read it's a no no. My original bootloader is stock Samsung. No Knox icons in download mode. I just might try your ROM. Have been reading about it just a few minutes ago.
I've been listing sammobile FWs and it gives me Russian and Ukrainian ROMs. You're suggesting I give one of them "a spin"?

S4 Mini i9195 Stock Firmware KK?

I can't find a STOCK FW for the i9195. By stock, I mean something without a carrier name at the end, when surfing sammobile.com. To be more specific, I'm looking for the latest (4.4.2) FW with Romanian (XXUCNEA or something similar) and stock.
Can anyone help? Thanks.

For now there is no version for ROM
Only Vodafone Romania,
Only nonbranded one is Spain, New Zeland , Slovakia , Germany
In that case, can Romanian be added later?

U mean language ? or ROM firmware version
If u mean firmware u have to ask samsung WHEN they will release for other countries
If u mean language, Romanian is available in all versions i think
Here's the thing: the phone was just purchased from Orange and I'm not conforable with the bloatware. I was looking for the latest KK clean ROM and I settled with the Spain version.
What I'm asking now is offtopic and it's about a way to CLEAN flash a ROM. I was wondering about this when a problem occured with the signal. It kept droping and I read it had something to do with the firmware.
So, is there a way to clean flash a ROM on a Samsung?

[Q] EU Rom for T210R?

Hi, My Dad bought T210R in USA and it seems that in USA firmware there are no eu languages. Is there any way to install Czech language? I tried "more locale" but it doesnt work. I was looking for EU firmware for this table t but i could not find it. So is there any way to use stock ROM with different language? My dad is used to stock samsung rom so i dont want to install custom rom.
Just download the latest UK T210 firmware off sammobile.com and flash it using Odin.

Wanted: Lenovo P2 UK Stock ROM

Hi folks,
As the Lenovo P2 is now discontinued in the UK, I bought an import, which is region locked to SE Asia. I would like to replace my current firmware, with the UK Three Stock ROM: P2a42_S056_161130_uk
Does anyone have a link to this particular stock ROM? I cannot find it anywhere.
Cheers
Mr Red
Surely someone has a copy of this firmware?
No point using the UK ROM, just use the ROW ones instead as they are better support and receive updates. The only difference between those and the UK ROMs are bundle applications for the 3UK network.
You can download roms from https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=222433
