[Q] Want upgrade to 4.4.2

Hello.
Just bought an used Note II. It has 4.3 and I want 4.4.2. Software updates on the phone tells me 4.3 is the latest. Kies on imac is telling me the same.
Baseband version: N7100ZSENA1
Current firmware = Latest firmware = PDA: NA1, PHONE: NA1, CSC: NA1 (TGY)
It means that the update is not ready for that country? What country is NA1 (TGY)? Can I change that somehow and get the latest firmware?
Thank you in advance.

Update might not have arrived on your country. But you can get the ofiical firmware from here and instructions too. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=28988

Thank you.
I'm also interested in knowing which country is NA1 (TGY). According to http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Csc, TGY is Hong Kong. That means the phone was bought from Hong Kong?
If i flash that firmware, it will change country to India and will have OTA updates when available in India?

I would advise you flash the French Version and not the Indian version cause it carries the modem file that is tailor made for Indian users only,people who use that modem outside of India might experience sudden battery drain and weak signal (the ones that are rooted can take care of it by flashing the french modem or one of the older 4.3 modems) but you wont be and you'd have to flash French rom which carries a XX labelled modem that works for most EU countries although XF is the one for romania

http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/3/?download=29588 - is this the right one?
Will this be enough? Or do I need to flash a different modem firmware? After this the phone will be french version instead of hong kong version?

Ya thats the latest one that released today.Download it and flash via pc odin.I am not too sure if your phone would change to "french version" look at my screenshot of attached CSC .Shows BTU (which is UK) and CSC country is UK AND IRE (cause i believe the stock rooted ROM from the developer i got turned the CSC into this i guess he's from that part of the world) and my note II is originally from Dubai and been using it in India .So you can imagine by poor phone has been touringaround the world..LOL But doesn't affect me cause i never upgrade to stock roms from sammobile i always get the stock dedoxed pre rooted ones from xda so CSC doesn't matter to me unless it messed my phone up.
Read this post below that would give you more info about how does flashing a rom from another country works

This is mine. Should I go then for french update or wait for hing kong version.
Is it ok that I'm using hong kong version in romania? France is closer

Ok, I did the firmware update from France.

Is this ok? Do I need to do anything else?

Battery life seems worse on 4.4.2. Should I flash different modem firmware?

Since you are on stock 4.4.2 you got two options,either flash a custom 4.4.2 custom ROM (dr ketan's rom is the least bloated and very close to stock)so that would give you a good estimate how your battery drain is or you flash a custom 4.3 (there are tons available out there choose the one which impresses you the most)

For now I wish to stay on stock ROM. But battery life on 4.3 was much better than on 4.4.2.

Well give it few days and see if it improves ,if it doesn't then only option is to root your phone and try custom 4.3 or 4.4 ROMS.Good luck

Why not give it a try? The 4.3 stock firmware should be on sammobile's site. Why carry another battery when you don't have to?

Assuming you upgraded (as in kept all your apps and data) from 4.3 to 4.4.2 then you should probably factory reset before judging battery life. Some apps just never play ball again after an update.
The rule typically is:
x.x.a to x.x.b - wipe only if experience issues
x.a.x to x.b.x - wipe suggested but not generally required
a.x.x to b.x.x - wipe generally required

[Q] Install 4.4.2 on Note 3 Neo from another region

Purchased a Note 3 Neo in Hong Kong last year.
Model Number: SM-N7505
Android Version: 4.3
Baseband Version: N7505ZHUAND2
Currently running:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/29517/N7505ZHUAND2_N7505ZZHAND2_TGY/
KNOX is already flipped, so I don't care.
Browsing http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-N7505/, I see that there are some 4.4.2 for various regions, but I need to have a 4.4.2 base in order to install a custom ROM correct?
I get a "Device has been modified. Software updates are not available" message when clicking "Check for Updates" - so my assumption is I'm going to have to do this manually? But do I just need to wait?

I posted the question but I didn't find an answer to this, yet.
I would flash the newest firmware for the N7505 (http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/43318/N7505XXUCOB1_N7505OXXCOB1_BGL/) and then the modem for Europe (N7505XXUCNG2).
But I don't know if this is possible?!

No IMEI and no baseband - Possible to get the phone working again?

A friend of mine asked me if I could help her to get her old GT-N7105 working again. She said she had some person trying to do something to it (I think that person tried to unlock it, but I am not sure) but something went fubar and the phone didn't recognise the SIM-cards anymore. I said I could take a look at it, however rooting with Androids is a new territory for me.
I first of all tried with my own SIM-card, nothing happened. Then I got a brand new SIM card and tried with that, nothing happens there either.
I downloaded Samsung Kies but the phone don't want to show up there (I have the USB-drivers installed) but it does show up on my PC. I have tried different USB-ports to see if Samsung Kies will work, but no. If I run Samsung Smart Switch the phone shows up in that program, but I can't do anything with it (not even the "Emergency firware restore").
If I check the info on the phone I can see that the IMEI and baseband says "Unknown" and I have these latest days searched around here on XDA and other places on what to do but none of the threads I've found has worked for me. I tried a factory reset in the beginning, that didn't do a thing so I downloaded Odin and flashed in the latest firmware I could find from Sammobile but that didn't help either.
Is it possible to get this phone working again, and if so how? I downloaded a Samsung Phone Info app and got some information from it, but if there's more information needed then say so and I'll do my best to find it.
Thanks in advance for all your help.

The latest released FW is from Hong Kong, it was released in 2017-03-06 but the latest from where I live (Sweden) is from 2015-03-17. They both have the same version number, does it matter if I take the one from Hong Kong or should I use the one for the "Nordic countries"?

Use Updato.com for stock firmware. These are the latest firmware for Sweden released April 2017: https://updato.com/firmware-archive...=15&r=COV,TLA,HTS&order=date&dir=desc&exact=1. Flash the carrier version with Odin and see if that helps.

I would try the Nordic firmware.

I flashed the Nordic firmware from Sammobile, didn't help.
Gonna give h_maharaj's tips a go. I'll let you all know how it works out.

I talked to my friend (who owns the phone) and she said she had Three (3, HTS) as carrier when she had it working. So I took the latest Three (3, HTS) firmware I could find from Updato wich was the N7105XXSFQA5 (released April 24, 2017) and I flashed the phone with Odin3 v.3.04, it still says "Unknown" on both "Baseband" and "IMEI".

Changing CSC by Updating the Rom using Odin

My Note 10 plus is New Zealand Edition having Country code NZC. Since there is no OTA of Android 10 for NZC device. My device is still in android 9 (Attaching the software details screenshot below). I would like to manually update my phone with Stock android 10 rom with INS country code (Because iam using this device in India). Is it possible to update and change CSC through Odin without wiping the data.?

No

Yes it is.

My Galaxy S9 SM-G960U1 haven't got Android 10 Update Yet ?

Hi,
XDA Community
So my inquiry today, is that
i realised samsung has just roll out the Android 10 Update for S9 devices, on Feb 2
but my phone is not getting updated yet via OTA, like always
I had no problem getting Android 9 (Pie) when it released.
but now, i am so confused, why my phone is not getting the update.
Well, i looked into SAMMOBILE official page, and some carriers of my model [SM-G960U1]
have already the Android 10 Update,
so my question here is, wich one of those sammobile.com - samsung - galaxy-s9 -firmware - #SM-G960U1]
, is my correct update or firmware
i figure out is the Uknown (XAA) Version [sammobile.com - samsung- galaxy-s9 - firmware - SM-G960U1 - XAA - download - G960U1UEU7DTA5 - 314846], but i need to be sure
so here we are, i need some help to get the correct firmware for my S9.
The things is that the PDA and CSC are the same on each Carrier, and is difficult to identify
i never had that issue with previous phones like S6, S3 or S7.
also, i looked into IME PAGE INFO, and says that is : XAG Version -> IMEI.info: CSC XAG
so, that confuse me.
NOTE: AND not MY Phone is not Rooted, i keep it official since i bought it.
so for you, i have the ADB Lines: of my S9 Phone:
[ril.debug.ntc]: [M:VZW, S:TFN, T:CDM, C:USA]
[ril.region_props]: [TFN.TFN]
[ril.product_code]: [SM-G960UZKATFN]
[ro.boot.carrierid]: [XAA]
[ro.boot.em.model]: [SM-G960U1]

XAA is one of several multi CSC firmware sets. Just flash it in Odin, youll be fine. HOME_CSC to not have it factory reset and CSC to have it factory fresh.

very insightful.... posts like these are the glue that keeps this community together :: facepalm ::

Thanks to all,
i just figure out, that my device support XAA and TFN Carriers, and i just get the Android 10 update, today.
for some one that this can help
to switch between XAA or TFN, just depend on what type of SIM you are using, both can work on this samsung s9 model, the phone will automatically reboot and swith the best for you (XAA or TFN)
Have a great day!
