I have a galaxy note with italian baseband. My question is can I flash it with another region's firmware (asian firmware)?
Yes you can!
Yes.You can always flash any region firmwares on your phone.But the firmware should belong to your phone model.i.e N-7000 firmwares on N-7000,and I-917 firmwares on I-917.Which means firmwares are devices specific and not region specific
If you cant understand any of the above,the exact answer for your question is yes you can
would this affect my warranty? & flash count? and another question could i directly flash with an older firmware, im currently on 2.3.6 i was wondering if i could flash 2.3.5?

1.It wont affect warrant as long as you are in stock firmware.But if you have a network locked device I'm not sure because I have no network locked device in my region.If you have international unlocked note,you are 100% covered by warranty as long as its stock
2.Stock roms dont increase counter.Only custom roms do
3.You can flash any GB rom when you are in GB(to make it simple IMO)
Does this also apply to other devices?
That it is possible to use different firmwares.
(in this particular case LG optimus black p970)
Yup

Yes you can. You can us Odin for PC to do it. Do some searching on the n7000 forums and you will find all the necessary files and flashing tools.
I recommend checking out this excellent thread by Dr. Ketan http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1424997
It explains everything in detail so you should be good to go if you read through it properly.
Hope this helped and good luck!

Marshmallow update for SM-G928I
Hi guys. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ (SM-G928I). However, I still didn't get marshmallow update for this phone. Can I flash this phone with a different model firmware? Such as SM-G928F or SM-G928C?

Did your friend tell you wether he tried to install a Custom Rom?
You should try to "restore" the Note with a Stock Rom installed with Odin.
I always use an old Gingerbread Rom with three parts. But you can download the right one for your country from sammobile.com. That's easy.
In the sticky threads here (Dr. Ketan's are very good) there are descriptions how to work with the Odin PC version.

I will not check other sites for firmware when everything is here - I'm lazy and I know I can trust them here in XDA.
See here for possible versions.
You should choose a version for the provider your friend uses.
Hello, I updated my system to 4.1.2 and rooted it so as to unlock the phone after which I found out that the only way to carrier unlock this phone is with 4.1.1
How do I safely downgrade so as to get 4.1.1? The phone is locked to 3 here in Sweden. I guess I need a Nordic version but have not found it.
I am very new to this so as detailed help as possible would be appreciated.
Model GT-I9305
Android version 4.1.2
Baseband version I9305XXBLL5
Kernel version
3.0.31-746327

Hi..
You have to look and learn from the forum.
As a noob its dangerous to flash firmwares.
Info is provided everyware on the forum.
Its not against the law to search just breafly on the forum and google.
Google search: Downgrade i9305
Sent from my GT-I9305 using XDA Premium HD app
Because its dangerous is the reason I ask for help here and of course I have googled.And I dont find anything about swedish/nordic firmware only people downgrading in England or the States. That is why I ask the question here.
Since I have sucesfully rooted my device I dont consider myself a noob, just careful.
So instead of stating the obvious like suggesting googling, maybe point me to a proper firmware that I can downgrade with.
Or a thread with relevant information.
Peace
If this is what to use which file should it be? This is why I put my initial question..
Using Odin is a breeze, its something else to know what to flash with so you dont brick your device.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1935570
Ok.. what ever..
Go to www.sammobile.com
There is where every one finds his or her firmware.
Register... goto firmware section... chose
Smartphone..android...i9305.. and the apropriet language for your phone..
The reason no one answeres this question is becaus its like telling you where to get toilet paper.

Use any of stock 4.1.1, unlock it and then flash it with latest Nordic 4.1.2
I guess it must be the file from November 2012 to use with Odin for any GT-I9305 from Sweden then, regardless of carrier? Not the one from September?
This one to use?
I9305XXALK5_I9305TLAALK1_TLA.zip
So if I downgrade to 4.1.1, do the unlock procedure, then it is as easy as to upgrade to 4.1.2 again using Odin and all should be back to normal. Correct?
The carrier unlock procedure can only be done on 4.1.1
Thank you for helping out!
Ok Djembey, just saw you posted a reply and that answers the question then. Many thanks
TLA is Telia and not Nordic, NEE is Nordic. And remember to do a full wipe after changing to another CSC to get OTA updates.
Glad I checked back here, was just about to do a downgrade using TLA firmware. This feels shaky to say the least :/
On Sammobile I can only find the 4.1.2 firmware NEE,I9305XXBMA3_I9305NEEBMA1_NEE.zip, where to find the 4.1.1?
So downgrading and updating using the NEE firmwares will make sure I receive OTA in the future?
And do I need to do a full swipe both after downgrading and then again when I update to 4.1.2 after unlocking?
Many thanks!

ANY 4.1.1 for the I9305 can be used! You will only use it for the unlock.
So is this the correct procedure?
1.Downgrade using TLA
2.No swipe
3.Unlock device
4.Upgrade using the NEE firmware
5.Then do a full swipe
Done
Thank you

FYI: Stock ROM NEE is for all Nordic Countries and it's better than TLA as is updated more frequently.
CSC_NEE contains settings for 34 Nordic Networks.
Btw, he's with 3 Sweden....

If your phone is unlocked and is not carrier branded then you're free to install any (good) Jellybean firmware...
But if your phone is carrier branded (like Claro, Sprint, Verizon, Vodaphone, Orange, etc) then you have to flash their respective Jellybean firmware...
Sent from my GT-I9070
Yes you can use firmware from another country buy only if your phone is not carrier branded, you can flash a JB firmware or rom if you like.GB is kind of outdated
i think my phone is unlocked cause i can use it with indonesian carrier...i bought my phone in HK...

I just bought my second I9305 (first one was stolen) and it doesn’t connect to any network band. It is the same International model I had before that worked perfectly. I’m not sure if it has some country code limitation, but the frequencies and bands should be the right ones.
The phone is stock version. Baseband version XXUEMK1.
I’m not sure if I should flash to another Baseband. My cellular service provider works LTE at 1800 frequency and Band 3.
Any clues about what I should do?
Thanks

Hi,
Which is your stock firmware version JB 4.1.2 ? JB 4.3, or ?
Rooted or not ?
If you want to be sure your phone is OK, just reflash via ODIN your stock firmware from your country (and if you want from your carrier), it includes PDA, CSC and MODEM . Be sure your phone is an internationnal model i9305 and download your firmware HERE or HERE. I recommand this GUIDE from MaHo_66 xda member.

I've made some googling but I didn't found which modem version you have to use. I guess you have to find a latin america modem version but it has to be compatible with your current Android 4.3 build.
Did you previous stolen i9305 was running Android 4.3 as well ?
Do you know some ways to remember which versions you had on your previous phone ? Do you know someone else with the same phone ?

So try do a clean install by wiping all and flash latest build I9305XXUEML9 from italy (TIM) with Odin. It's Android 4.3 like you currently have.
You can grab it here for exemple : http://samsung-updates.com/details/24460/Galaxy_S_3_LTE/GT-I9305/TIM/I9305XXUEML9.html
Follow MaHo_66 guide.
Don't forget to backup.
I hope it will do the trick.
Hi,hbergold,why not flash the version firmware 4.4.4 Stock.Here you have two versions of 4.4.4:http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9305 So you would be clear if the problem is the modem.I use the version DBT Poland, I live in Spain and everything works great.Version 4.4.4 also includes again the possibility of entering service mode and choose the bands.You can flash it with Odin.Pasate por aqui:http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=920004

Thanks FLooDW, I am just a bit concerned that the phone does have KNOX, and the MaHo_66 guide suggests not to flask with this. What are your suggestions?

Gracias viktorak, but does this modem work with LTE band 3 (1800) ?
I can`t confirm, but with the the Service Mode you can force the band you will.Have you read the post I linked?Your partner, also from Venezuala wanted to force the band 5 -3G, and according to reported- it works.Then,using Service Mode you can force the band you will.
You need to first install the 4.4.4 Rom and then if it doesn`t work normally use Service mode.

@hbergold, about KNOX, you told me you have an Android 4.3 build, so if it's an official one, you already have a KNOX bootloader (the one from sammy Android 4.3).
About bootloaders:
- if you ever flash 4.3 or 4.4 via Odin or updated from OTA you have new Bootloader from android 4.3 or from 4.4.4.
- if you bought your device and you dont know what bootloader you have, turn off your phone,reboot to download mode (hold power + volume down +home buttons) and when is there Knox flag 0x1 you have new bootloader and you are warranty off. When Knox flag is there 0x0 you have also new bootloader, but you are still in warranty and when you'll flash any custom recovery or unofficial firmware via Odin, you'll have then Knox 0x1 and you will be warranty off - so it's on your deciding. When isn't in download mode any records about about Knox, you still have old bootloader (from android 4.1.2).
- since the new sammy Android 4.4.4 bootloader, now there is also a line in blue color saying ´´SECURE DOWNLOAD : ENABLED''
About @MaHo_66 's opinion, please read here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56506775&postcount=12. I hope he will not find any problem of sharing his post
I also recommand to upgrade to an Android 4.4.4 build but it's your choice and it depends on what you want to do with your phone (install custom ROM or not = warranty stuffs / if you want to sell the phone later, ....). Also I think you will not be able to flash any older official build (Android 4.1.2 or 4.3) if you upgrade to 4.4.4 because of the bootloader. I recommand it mainly because there is no more this random ******* stuck mdm_hsic_pm0 wakelock issue appeared since sammy Android 4.3 and which was a big problem for battery life. And also because it's smoother and faster.
I hope for you that @viktorak service mode trick will work for you if you decide to upgrade to android 4.4.4 official.
Hi Guys,
Can anyone help me know the reason why I cant update my N9208 Taiwan (CSC: N9208ZZT2AOK3) with the Indian N9208 Duos ROM 5.1.1 (CSC: N9208ODI2APC1) (latest on 23-03-2016)
1. Has anyone tried doing it and has been successful through ODIN? If Yes, please let me know the detailed steps. (Need to update it to INDIAN ROM)
If No, can you please help me with the reason (if you know)?
Please help urgently!
If it's the same number (9208) you can flash official samsung rom from india without any problems.

Disagree with you.
Im the owner of N9208 Taiwan version (BRI) and im unable to flash ROM from different region. Odin fails at the start.
It is definitely related to different CSC.
