Tizen is not officially released to the U.S. as of yet. You can pick another countries firmware and flash that if you desire. I myself flashed the canadian version from here. I see there is a newer romanian release you can download and flash from here.
Check the thread in General.

Hi there!
I am looking for an official English firmware (UK) of the Incredible S. Can anyone guide me on that? I have an unbranded version. I came across a HongKong firmware in one of the threads but unfortunately i am unable to download it. Also I tried the Canada version but no go!
Thanks very much!
Goto the general section.... This is Development section....
Maybe people are willing to help you there.
I'm also looking for a European version.
I think it's kinda strange that there are so many shipped roms for the desire-s already which has only been released a few days ago and for the IS there are only about 3 roms?
I also wonder what HTC is thinking.. where would you get any official updates if your carrier provider doesn't support the IS and you bought it at a retail store.
Or do they provide fw downloads on their website usually? Didn't find any... but maybe I'm blind.
I installed the UK MK7 update weeks ago and want to switch back to the US now that it's available to get Exchange previews back. What's the CSC code for the US? Kies won't update since it says I already have MK7. Is there another place to download the new ROM? Can I downgrade to an older US ROM and let Kies update that way? I would, but I can't find even the old US ROMs.

Yes you can downgrade, Here is the thread where you can get the USA version. (OLD)
XAR is the USA version - Last one in the list (Labled as Cellular South)
Also you can go here and get the current version, Currently the top one in the list.

Was thinking the same thing but wondering if it even makes sense to do? If the UK gets another update (which I assume will be before the US again) won't Gear Manager download it to my UK rom first?
I decided to reload the old ROM and re-upgrade not being sure if were differences. I had some wierdness after loading the old ROM which I suspect was program updates intended for the new ROM. You might want to do a reset to wipe the gear before dropping back to the old version.
Having done so, though, I used Kies to upload the new US ROM and it all went fine. I am now on the US MK7 and all seems well.

So, are the UK and US MK7 firmware versions identical?

I see no discernable differences on the surface. Under the hood, I can't tell. It seems unlikely to me that different versions would be left with the version number. Time will tell.

How can I tell which version of the MK7 software is installed the Us or the UK. I did both on two devices and don't know if there is a way to.tell

Thanks for this information, as I was not sure I was on the UK or the US version, having flashed the UK rom, but then being unsure if what appeared to be an update recently actually was. I am in USA and on the XAR version now. All have been working great with Exchange and other notifications.
Same size
I opened both .tar files (XAR from USA and BTU from UK) and they have the same exact size on all their subfolders (not a single Byte more, not a single Byte less) I assume they are the same firmware. Why Sammy took too long to update USA firmware? Weird right?

OMG, thanks for this almulder! It is not clear on Null Gear Recover pagethat all the US people are being sent to a link to download MK2 version which gives the scrunched recovery view. I'm still figuring this out, but this post makes things a lot easier.

Hi all,
maybe that is expected but I thought my Note 4 should be subject of Lollipop Update. Device information says "SM-N910F".
I am on Stock firmware, no root or so.
Is Lollipop not available for my device yet or am I doing something wrong.
Thanks in advance guys for feedback.
Cheers from Germany
waintg like i do SM-N910F (TPL)
I read somewhere that lolipop update was canceled because of problems with Poland ROMs
Really? I thought it's spread now for nearly every version

Canceled lol? No it is not "canceled" it is rolling out to the device in different regions...just wait until it hits your region.
Its not rolling out to any region but Poland & Korea for C version and Germany for F... something bad spotted in beta testing, they're recoding firmwares and the update is on hold. As it rolls out to much older devices, we with Note4 have to still wait. It's just as it is... Samsung fails to satisfy its flagship owners one more time.
Sent from my GALAXY Note 4
Thanks KS ljubimci. That's why I'm wondering. I believe to be on F and am in Germany as well. Now you guys got really confused.
They are saving the best firmware for us till last as they experiment on other devices (^_-) shall be worth the wait.

Completely normal way for Samsung. Poland and Korea usually first and after a while they will spread to other regions.
I expect, for Europe, the UK next followed by France, Italy and Spain.

If someone bad (as in show stopping bad) would have been discovered they would not have released the final version in Poland or Germany.
They may adjust some small things for other regions but nothing indicates that they pulled the plug on the update. (if a real problem would had been discover they also would have stopped rolling out Germany and Poland)
Guys, just to repeat: I AM in Germany and AM on F but Update not showing. So what's wrong then?
Download it from sammobile if you really need it. I myself had to downgrade in order to get my things work the way I want them to. Besides I'm not a fan of the lollipop animation gimmicks at all.
So it is Only available from sammobile and expected behaviour that it's not offered via KIES or OTA?

No. It should be offered via KIES or OTA. But if Samsung really pull back the update due to some bugs, you won't be able to get them either way so you have to download from Sammobile if you can't wait for Samsung to release them again.
Hmm okay. So we ASSUME it was pulled back then.

Nah, if your deviece is carrier branded than it's completely normal not to receive the update.
It isn't branded
You probably have a different csc.

If I use Odin to install One UI, will it root my phone and is the lastest update already available to install because I'm finding ways to install it and it says install an early build, and will it go to the lastest build or will it be in the early build?

Ok. You're new here, so I'll help you out. But next time, search for your answers before starting a new thread. We already have at least two threads on how to install the One UI Beta, and another thread that's is a discussion of the beta and I cludes instructions on how to get it.
Main thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/how-to/note-9-pie-alpha-t3849980
And these two are threads other people started stating how they installed it:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/how-to/how-one-ui-beta-verizon-note-9-t3877076
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-9/how-to/how-to-beta-update-note-9-u1-t3875949
You need to read those threads to understand what you're doing, the pros and cons, and how to downgrade if needed. And please for the love of God, if you install it and have some bugs, don't start a new thread. Post those issues in the main discussion. One. We've probably already discussed it and maybe even found a solution. Two, it makes it easier to track.
Ok, so you have an ATT Note 9. You have two options for Pie. One, you can flash the leaked C builds and keep all your carrier features and bloat. Such as WiFi calling, VoLTE, RCS messaging, and all those lovely ATT apps, and that gorgeous ATT boot animation and jingle.
Or, you can use the modified ODIN to flash the U1 firmware and get on the official BETA Z builds. This will be a clean OS with no carrier bloat, apps, or boot animations. But it will mean no WiFi calling or VoLTE, etc.
If you go the C build route to keep carrier features, you will have to use ODIN to downgrade to Oreo each time you want to sideload the newest leak.
If you go the official Beta route and don't care about those carrier features, then you will use ODIN once to flash the U1 firmware and then you can update via OTA each time an update is pushed.
Which one do you want to do?
Hi,
I'm not very familiar with flashing Samsung devices so please excuse me if this is a silly question.
For awhile, I was given a Note 9 (SM-N960F) to test for work and I was able to flash the latest firmware almost regardless of the region that received the update. I'd download the 4gb file and use Odin to flash away. Very simple.
Now that I had to give the phone back, I got myself an S10 (SM-G973W) with Telus here in Canada and I'm not sure what I can safely flash. If I look at Samfirm for SM-G973W it seems rather limited, I can find the March update or the April update but that's it.
Is it because those are the only two firmwares available? Are there alternative regions I can keep an eye on for quicker updates? Is it that Canadian carries simply didn't make an update available with April security updates?
Thank you

"F" is the international model with European and Latin American CSCs. "W" is Canada only. No additional regions or countries will be available.
