update to 4.4.2 ro, orange - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have Android 4.2.2 on my s4 mini and want to update it to 4.4.2.. if i use kies i get "no update avaible" also if i try ota on phone, the same result. I went to sammobile.com but i don't know which one to choose.
Any help ?! Thanks
PS:image in attachement.

Settings -> More -> About device -> Baseband firmware.
Go on sammobile and check for your firmware and see if it's there. As far as I know, orange ro & vodafone ro have updated to 4.4.2.
BUT if u have I9195XXUBML4 don't waste your time. That's free carrier and you don't have any update to 4.4.2 yet. Same for me, i'm waiting for the update.
If you need more help, I'll be here, send me a PM.

AFAIK for cyprus, you have latest ROM(DMB2) installed, no dmb6 for cyprus there.
Though you can update latest ROM for other country. look to thread as @glevitan said you above.

csc changer from play store
So my n5100 is apparently a Trinidad and Tobago model. If I update it to another country's firmware, do I lose my ability to do OTA updates in the future?
I know for my HTC ONE, there is a way to change the model number and Cid to convert it to what you want and then get OTA updates. Is that what the changing the CSC does for Samsung? Will I be able to get OTA updates afterward s?

[Q] Flash back to stock ROM

HI
I have a UK Vodaphone SG Note 2 that I rooted a while back but cant remember what root I used
I did mange to get a Download message to appear on the screen when all three buttons were pressed the other day and I think this is the ODIN? down-loader
My issues is finding the right ROM. I have found two on the internet
N7100XXDMC3
N7100XXDMB2
But my phone says that it has:
N7100BUDMD1
The two above seem to be from March this year and I can remember that before I rooted I did up grade from Android 4.11 - 4.12.
So how do I find the exact baseband version as there is no sign of a download for:N7100BUDMD1
Cheers in advance for any help

It shouldn't matter what firmware you download as long as it is for Vodafone UK. Provided you return to full stock, you'll be able to update to the latest firmware provided through Vodafone. Baseband name is different from firmware name afaik. If you can bring up more info on the firmware, they should also show baseband/modem version too.

Note, there are no official 4.2.1 roms. Samsung confirmed it will skip it straight to 4.3 and there only is the leaked firmware as of yet

[Q] Install 4.4.2 from Sammobile manually

Hi All,
Got a small question about upgrading my S4Mini (GT-I9195 LTE) from 4.2.2 to 4.4.2.
At the moment my phone is on stock-rom which is 4.2.2 , when i check for 'updates' it says, 'latest updates already installed'.
Also when connecting to 'Kies' , the program says latest firmware already installed..
However when i check the Sammobile website for the GT-I9195 Model there are newer firmware's showing up , Android 4.4.2, but it depends on the country if the firmware is already at 4.4.2.
For the Netherlands, where i'm from, this one is available :
Model: GT-I9195
Model name: GALAXY S4 mini LTE
Country: Netherlands (Vodafone)
Version: Android 4.4.2
Changelist: 1646188
Build date: Tue, 27 May 2014 08:17:05 +0000
Product Code: VDF
PDA: I9195XXUCNEA
CSC: I9195VFGCNE4
MODEM: I9195XXUCNEA
However, i'm not with Vodafone as a provider, would that be a problem ?
When i check my phone specs, this is what i get:
AP: I9195XXUBNB3
CP: I9195XXUBNB3
CSC: I9195PHNBND1
Can i just install android 4.4.2 from Sammobile without any problem ?
Thanks in advance.

Network/carrier specific firmware may have custom software or setting for the ROM, it better to find some other model that are as close to your phone's spec as possible to avoid any potential problem.
As if your phone has Know, it would trigger Know if you don't update via the official way.

Hi, thanks for your answer.
Knox-flag is already triggered on my phone, but because i had to sent it back to shop for maintenance they reset it back to factory settings (android 4.2.2.)
However, i don't get it the way Samsung is updating the phone's. It's said that 4.4.2 is out for S4Mini , however when i'm searching for my device on Sammobile (I9195XXUBNB3), it still says 4.2.2.
Should I wait with updating, or what else ?

That depends entirely on you... If you wish to preserve the warranty and keep the KNOX, than don't. If you can't wait and don't get bother by KNOX or warranty than go for it.
LOL, too tired, I just realize I keep typing KNOX as 'know'...

I just typed that my KNOX warranty is already void, it's triggerd 0x1.
I'm now just wondering what the best way is for me to update to stock 4.4.2...i'm confused with al the stock-roms that have 4.4.2 for S4Mini on Sammobile.

All the ROM listed on Smmmobile is for different region. And I would also expect there won't be a 4.4.2 for your specific phone since you've check via Kies. So you need to find a phone from another region that are same spec as yours - band, function, etc and prefer not a carrier/network model.
Alternatively you can go for the custom KK ROM here.

No it will not harm your device but you have to make sure you know what you're doing. I recommend waiting for the update to get released in your country and download it over the air easier.

if you want a decent upgrade wait for your country .. if you want it so bad download the firmware of the countrey near you to get a good signal BUT i have to address the following
-if the firmware isn't for your country it will work 100% but in wcdma you may lost h+ connection (will remain h.. not sayin it will but may do that.. didn't happen to me thankfully but some guys reported this)
-upgrading to official Sammy kitkat will upgrade to Knox 2.0 so YOU WILL LOSE ANY WAYS OF DOWNGRADING AND YOU WONT BE ABLE TO GET ROOT EASILY !!
whats your model ? i9190 or i9192 or i9195 ??

model number is i9190
Just look for a good tutorial and carefully follow every step. It's not that hard, and if you make no mistakes, you'll have your phone running Kit Kat normally.
i want to update to kitkat now.. which country's firmware should i flash ??
i9190/92/95? where do you live?
Do this, the latest one. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=35478
The country thing won't change anything.
You are able to downgrade to 4.2.2 in the i9195 version, but I am not sure about the i9190 version. Be careful. Be sure what you are doing when flashing with Odin.
Good Luck.
Press THANKS if I helped!
