Hi All,
I had kitkat test firmware on my S4 i9505 which i got it from SAMmobile ......i am looking for official rom from At&t where i can get OTA updates as well kies updates......
sorry if i am not clear with my question Thanks in advance

Reverting to stock ROM

So my friend asked me revert his S4 GT-I9505 to stock 4.4.2 because he cant upgrade because of root.
He didnt tell me from where he got phone.
I found this
AP:I9505XXUEMJ7
CP: I9505XXUEMJ7
CSC:I9505MOTEMJ8
I cant find any firmware on SamMobile for that
If i cant find correct firmware to revert via Odin can i use some carrier version?
Thanks
- All firmwares are HERE.
- Direct url for android 4.4.2: HERE
*EDIT: Dont try to flash again android 4.2.2 coz ur friend had MJ7 (android 4.3). You can't downgrade. Flash android 4.3 again or android 4.4.2 simply. Good luck.
Thanks man!

@gtuck1002 As mentioned by "xinfinityoO", Android 4.4.4 is not yet out for Galaxy note 3 global version like N9005 and N900.
but its available for N900P, Here is the Url for 4.4.4 firmware.
SAMSUNG OFFICIAL FIRMWARE LINK FOR SM-N900P
And you are not able to update because You have installed Custom recovery "twrp" so your knox counter might have been triggered to 0x1, and device status changed to "Custom". That's the reason your cellphone won't get updated.
So if you want to update to 4.4.4 then jus download the firmware and install through ODIN. But you will lose your root if you update to 4.4.4.
Thanks.
Hit THANKS button, If I helped You.

Galaxy S5 (HELP) Upgrading from 4.2.2 to 5.0.1

(HELP) upgrading of os from 4.2.2 to 5.0.1
Am new to flashing of stock firmware on Samsung and have been finding it hard to download 4.3 OS from Samsung updates due to premium account and I can't do OTA update. I just want to know if I can flash 5.0.1 with odin directly to my 4.2.2. I will also appreciate it if I can get another download link for firmware apart from rapidgator for s4 gt-i19500
