Knox will NOT be tripped because you are flashing an official signed software from samsung yeah pda shiuld be enough. If you have problems then search and flash the matching modem twice

sorry write 4.2.2! that's 4.4.2.
I guess you mean the 4.4.2 update. Maybe it helps if you flash an other firmware via odin from your pc with an other firmware.

You wont be able to get back. But you can flash all newer firmware via Odin. http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
There you can find the newest firmwares for your device.

Yes will work. Chose the right firmware for your country and be happy
Firmwares are listed in post 2 of the guide I think

My country isn't listed there, so i should download Open European (4.4.2), right?
Which csc do you have then?
csc means the firmware code. You can find it out when you connect the S4 with Kies. There you can find 3 letters in brackets.

That's kind of a problem.. Kies does not recognize my S4...
Oh okay. You can take the open Europe firmware. Or you can google you country and look if there is a 4.4.2 firmware for it

Sorry for stupid questions, but when i extracted the .rar, i got 4 different files. Should i select the largest one? I'm asking, because "Step 5) click on pda in odin (if odin 3.09 choose AP) and choose the file ".tar"". And if my phone is 16gb, i don't need any extra steps or something?

Chose the .tar file and ad in AP
Can you give me a link from this firmware?
Did you download a four part firmware?

Really sorry for stupid questions. https://mega.co.nz/#!ON4zTagL!WdK7udWQvQvaIvHHrxjAn2RQ6qkL73eSaF8SKDcnsiQ downloaded from here (http://prntscr.com/4hd8mo the Open European (4.4.2) one)
Just click on the field AP and chose the .tar file.
Backup your important data before you install the new firmware. But may I ask from which country you are? I think it is better when you choose a firmware for your country, because the open Europe firmwares are all leaked test firmwares.
Edit: and can you post a Screenshot from the four files of the .zip ?
Oh and can you please type *#1234# into the dialer and post it?

Okay you are on Baltic firmware now, so I recommend you to install the Baltic 4.4.2. and not the open Europe leak, because this is a four part firmware and will delete all your data.
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Follow this link, make an account (its for free and without any spam mails)
And search for your devise i9505 and take the Baltic 4.4.2 firmware.
I think it's the best way to update.
But back up important data.

Have latest Malaysia Rom german language?

Have the latest Malaysia Rom N9005DXUGBOF1 german language? The latest philipien with same high changelist dont have german language.
Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
hi.
is your phone rooted?
Yes with knox 0x0.
Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
if is rooted navigate to /system/csc and delete language.xml
reboot your phone and check if all languages are displayed, if not, an factory reset is required.
ps. how you get root on lollipop with knox 0x0?
I dont have flash the rom now. Without german i dont flash this.

It is possibile to downgrade GT i9505 from 4.4.2 to 4.2.2?

It is possibile?

It's impossible, because 4.4.2 includes KNOX bootloader and 4.2.2 not.

I have tried before MIUI v5 that based on Android 4.2.2 accidentally and it doesn't trip my KNOX bootloader.
Even if you tried KNOX-free ROM, it isn't 100% free, because of bootloader. So NEVER try to flash stock firmware 4.2.2 over 4.4.2!
