Root [International] New upgrade available..when?

[Amylee3130]

Hi im just wondering when the new update is out in the UK for android. I have Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505on Orange.

Im having issues and im hoping the new update will fix it as Samsung seem to be having problems doing so after 3 attempts.

Thanks in advance

Chances are lollipop will come touchwiz style next year, however Google play edition will be here this month most likely :-D

 

[Amylee3130]

Oh right so the other update isnt coming out now? I know people in USA have had it. Really disappointed as im still havin the issue with my phone and cant fix it. Samsung have had it 3 times and cant seem to fix the issue either x

Well that all depends on what update you are referring to, there could be a bug fix kit Kat release, but as rusty bum has referred too, it depends on model of phone, region and phone network. If you are rooted(are posting in rooted section....) then any update you have seen elsewhere can quite easily be flashed

Well i have the I9505 on Orange and yes i mean the bug fix 😆 i cant seem to find it on the link. Im not rooted atm im seriously considering it but im a little scared haha i did do this before so it is an option x

 

[sntaylor]

Do it, do it, do it, do it.....Or as mrs Doyle would say, go on, go on, go on, go on, go on

To check out your actual model and firmware details, see #1.2 and #1.3 of 29 Galaxy S4 models - know yours?

You should be able to update OTA, (Over The Air), or via the Samsung Kies, PC suite. Alternatively, you can download the above firmware and flash it via Odin as described in the links of #1.5 of the aforementioned guide.

Or come to the dark side, root it and get a good stable lollipop before ironass gets it on his s5.... Mwahahaha

 

[Amylee3130]

Im on orange is that the same as EE? so how come ive not had this fix come up on my phone updates.

Thanks

 

[Amylee3130]

Hahaha stop trying to lead me astray. I take it your all lollipoped up 😆 x

 

[Amylee3130]

I take it this is legit 😆 xx

 

[sntaylor]

Lollipop ain't out yet :-(but the s4 will get a gpe Rom before the s5 gets touchwiz one! As for the minor update, if you can find the update on Sam mobile then you can flash via Odin and do it that way, or just wait for Samsung to release it/Orange to release it

Your Baseband is of no use. You need your full firmware details as per my earlier post...

No, it is a stock Samsung firmware and perfectly legit to do so for your CSC code if it is EVR, (EE).

 

[Amylee3130]

These are my details. Sorry if im being dumb i just dont wanna make a mistake x

 

[Amylee3130]

These are my details hope you can see it x

 

[ironass]

These are my details hope you can see it x

You do not have an EE carrier branded phone, CSC code EVR, but rather an Orange sim card in a multi regional firmware, OXX, that is currently up-to-date on NG8.

 

[Amylee3130]

Yes thats correct its open to all networks. So there is no update option for me? Im really at a loss to what is wrong with the call connection issue makin me sad. Samsung have attempted to fix it without success and ive also reset it about 7 times without success. I kno its not the speaker so i dont kno x

 

[ironass]

What is your location, (country)?

 

[Amylee3130]

UK

 

[ironass]

The latest EE/Orange firmware comes with the NI2 modem which is newer than the NG8. You could flash the EE firmware to see if it improves your connection over the NG8. You will of course void your warranty if you need to have your phone repaired at any stage... unless you re-flash the OXX firmware back before returning it.

Thats brill thanks. Now i just need to know where the n10 is so i csn download it. Been a while since ive used Odin x
