my phone is rooted
When I connect my t-mobile SGH-T889 to pc with kies installed i have a popup window
A new firmware version is available. Upgrading may improve the performance of
SGH-T889. Do you want to upgrade?
Current firmware version: PDA:LK8/PHONE:LK8/CSC:LK8(TMB)
Latest firmware version: PDA:MD1/PHONE:MD1/CSC:MD1(TMB)
should I do it?
any problems with it?
what is the best way to do it?
Leave it and flash one of the roms here. I know for sure there are roms here that far surpass, in every way, any update currently available from our good friends at tmobile.

Jason, you are fine to flash any ROM as long as it is for your specific model e.g. N7105 (yours) and not for another model. Being on 4.1 you may find your current bootloader causes intermittent problems on a 4.3 ROM. There are two solutions, upgrade your bootloader to MJ5 prior to flashing 4.3 ROM or flash 4.3 ROM then flash drketan's wifi fix.
I also recommend NOT flashing from Sammobile, instead go to Android development forum here on XDA and select an appropriate ROM. That way the Knox feature present in latest 4.3 ROMs can be avoided.
I have deliberately not included links for you - instead read & read install instructions from the ROM thread of your choosing. You will be fine as long as you understand each step & all the terms & points mentioned in ROM thread.
Good luck
Hi,
I have purchased Samsung Galaxy S3 (AT&T) version here is Pakistan, my GSM network is working on but to my curiosity I want to check myself that the phone is fully rooted and it can be used in any country worldwide. (unable to check it GalaxSim Unlocked SW) How can i check it from phone
Secondly when trying to update Android 4.1.1 to 4.3 its checking from About Phone > Software Update > its always going to AT&T Server and checking for update every 24 hours but unable to find it, which is not possible from Pakistan as far I know. Is it possible to update to 4.3 ??
My Cell Phone details are
Model No.: SAMSUNG-SGH-1747
Baseband Version: 1747UCDLK3
Kernel Version: 3.0.31-274808
Waiting for your reply on urgent basis
bump......
You want to see if its rooted? Use a root check app.
If it is or you want it rooted, flash a 4.3 ROM. That's gonna be your best bet

I'm having this same problem
Got it to work,
For the other noobs like me, I followed the instructions here

Just a quick note, if you upgrade to a ROM that includes an EMJB version bootloader, you can't go back to an older ROM after that (you can get a brick if you try that). There is a EMJ2 bootloader out there that is an alternative for the EMJB without that restriction. Search the threads for this phone for more details.

Yep, it's been out for a few months now.
Hello guys, i was gone for a while because i was studying and now i'd like to update my phone.
I opened samsung Kies and i saw there is an update available.
Current Version: PDA:NK1/PHONE:NK1/CSC:NK1 (EUR)
Latest Version: PDA:NK4/PHONE:NK4/CSC:NL1 (EUR)
Which android version is the latest from above? Is it Lolipop? If not, how can i install the official Lolipop firmware? Also, my phone is rooted and after the update id like to do it again. I have the LTE model (i9195).
My device has android 4.4.2 installed.
Thanks in advance.

I dont think official lollipop is /will be available for any of the galaxy s4 mini models. I would advise you to go to sammobile.com and look for the latest firmware for your device(Region specific) and download it. It will be the latest one and it will also serve as a backup official firmware. There after you can root your device(or do any other experiments for that matter), if something goes wrong there is a backup to fall back on.
Samsung noob here.
Bought a used Galaxy S Tab 10.5 a month ago. For some reason it's still on KitKat 4.4.2 and never got the update to Lollipop.
Any idea why?
Model: SM-T805W
Build #: KOT49H.T805WVLU0ANF5 (I search all around but couldn't find any info on T805WXXU0ANF5)
Carrier: Bell Canada (Although I don't use mobile data and only have an expired T-Mobile SIM in it to get rid of the "No SIM" message. I only use WiFi.)
Probably because there is no marshmallow rom at the moment.
Latest is 5.0.2 and can be downloaded from SamMobile.

Oh snap I meant Lollipop. Fixed OP
According to sammobile.com this is the latest firmware for T805W model:
Date: 2015-09-01
Version: Android 5.0.2
PDA: T805WVLU1BOD7
CSC: T805WOYA1BOD7
Are you non-rooted stock? As far as I know, one reason when OTA updates are not offered is when ROM status is not official or if the system is rooted (maybe when it is stock rooted, OTA is offered but cannot be installed).
Anyway, you can download the original firmware from sammobile.com as ashyx suggested and flash it using Odin. There are plenty of manuals how to do that here on xda.
