[Q] Galaxy S4 (GT-i9500) Official Lollipop update on Indian Version, any bad ? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
I have downloaded the official version of GT-i9500 Lollipop 5.0.1 ROM , Russia release , from Sammobile. Its a typical odin version single tar file. If I have install this on my Indian Galaxy S4 (GT-i9500) , by pointing the Odin (3.09) AP/PDA to the corresponding tar file alone , will it succeed ?
I have seen a couple of threads showing installation of russian version on other phones, but in that all, the zip file contains , 4 tar file for each section , pda, ser and so on. So I doubted if I proceed with only pointing the PDA and rest 3 section as blank on my Indian versino of S4, will there be any problem ? As I am using it as a daily driver, I dont want to experiment and see the result.
Please comment
Cheers,
KiK

Alright, Good to go with Lollipop Russia 5.0.1
Hey Folks, I tried myself upgrading my GS4 with the official lollipop 5.0.1 Russia release on my India Phone, and it works fine. Just need to download the tar file from sammobile and point that in AP/PDA section of Odin 3.09, and start it off, Done ! It feel refreshing the new look and performance after the upgrade

[Q] Galaxy S4 I9505 Original Help Needed

Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 Original
I am having the problem of not seeing the option in Network menu to enable 4G/LTE. I am running 4.3 right now. Our service provider Ooredoo in this country (Maldives) has released 4G and several others with the same model phone as mine can switch to 4G. I was wondering if there is any fix for this. I did hear about rooting the phone and deleting a file to fix this problem. I can't find out which file. and I have already downloaded a 4.3 firmware that said would fix the problem and flashed it. But there is no change.
And I am looking for the 4.4 Official Firmware for Galaxy S4 I9505 which can be used in my country.. Maldives.
And also is it possible to Downgrade the phone back to 4.3 after I flash 4.4?? From what I know so far it isnt.
I will post more information about the phone soon. Don't have it atm.
Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

Official lollipop for european note edge n915fy

:good:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/56349/N915FYXXU1COI1_N915FYOXA1COI1_BTU/
multicsc included
ROOT
after odin rom flash ,install a cwm recovery,flash micky kernel or pafcholini one and install last beta superuser from chianfire as a tar using odin or a zip from cwm
works like a charm
to fix wifi autoconnecting issue after root just edit build.prop using root Explorer and finding the line:
ro.securesupport.storage=true
change in
ro.securesupport.storage=false
happy new rom (the best one I should say) no bug at all!
