Thank you for your post.

There are currently 28 different models of the Samsung Galaxy S4 and over 2,000 different stock Samsung firmware versions, worldwide, covering 5 different Android platforms, Android 4.2.2, Android 4.3, Android 4.4.2, Android 4.4.3 and Android 4.4.4. Not all issues will affect all models or firmware releases and your answers to the following questions will help in the forum's answers to your specific query.

#1 Could you post your Model number and Android version...

To locate these, go to...

Settings > More > About device > Model number and Android version

This will give you the model of Samsung Galaxy S4 that you have and which Android version you are on.


#2. Your current Firmware, (not just Baseband), version .

To locate your current firmware version, go to the stock, Samsung, dial pad and type in...

*#1234#

This will give you your, "Version", details in full, usually 3 lines of information, AP: CP: CSC:, which may all be relevant.

*** If code *#1234# has been disabled on your firmware, you can download and install, free from the Play Store, Phone Info and it will give you, under Firmware Info... PDA, Baseband, CSC, versions.


#3. Also helpful would be your carrier, (service provider), location, (UK, India, Russia, USA, etc: ), and if your phone is rooted or not and running a custom ROM, (give details).


Thanks. The above helps us to help you and hopefully someone will be able to reply to you shortly. :)

Thanks Jamesybhoy1977!

It would appear that you have the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini, GT-i9195, which is not covered by this forum.

I have therefore requested our Mods move your thread to the...

Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini

... where you should be able to receive more assistance for your specific model of phone.

Good luck!

P.S. Are you missing a letter from your CSC code... maybe a, "V"? In which case, the latest frmware should be Android 4.4.2 and not Android 4.2.2.

Link repaired. I would wait until the Mods move you, (they're probably all down the pub), otherwise there will be a duplicate post.

You need to update your firmware via Kies as the latest is 4.4.2.
