Hi
I don't know what is your phone build number exactly but I suggest lineage 16 or 17.1 and you can find them from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/grand-prime/development
but first of all , since you have Android 4.4.4 on your phone you should update it to 5.0.2 (The latest official stock rom for Grand Prime) .

​Hmmm may be Samsung haven't released any on the air update for your country. You can update it manually via odin. Or you can try it through Samsung kies.
Guide for Odin:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/help/guide-odin-flash-guide-t1671969
That guide is not just for old s3 ok its for all Samsung devices. But in this guide th odin version is 3.04 you have to download new version 3.09 ok download it from anywhere.
And
Go to sammobile.com
Here you can get all firmware updates for your mobile. You have to make an account first then you can download.
Remember,
Go to your mobile settings> General> About Device
There you will see all INFO about your mobile.
Note down your mobile baseband version. You have to download firmware according to your baseband version.
And any build version can be used.
Just look for your country region ok and upload date.
Download the latest update.
And follow that odin guide.

i couldn't find any kitkat firmware with my baseband version...
even in other countries....

Try it with samsung kies. Or go to mrcrab.net
Here you can find a kitkat update version of your country or your neighbour country. Yes you can install versions for your neighbour countries.
But i am recommending you to not attempt it because there is no big difference between 4.4.2 and 4.4.4. So if you got any problem then it will be hard for you to downgrade or solving it.
So stay what you have got.
It seems like samsung hasn't announced any update for your region.
eventhough i still cant find kitkat for my baseband...
by the way i've jelly bean 4.3 not 4.4.2
it seems there's no way to get the kitkat..
Thank you brother

Yeah i think so.
But hey man you can try 4.4.2. Its better than jelly bean. Look man sometimes they are not clear on the website. Sometimes one ROM is for multiple basebands. If you wana give a try then download a rom of your or your neighbour country and unzip it and see what's inside. Tell me about your baseband and build version please.

Connect your mobile to samsung kies and it will show your current firmware version and its details. At the end of line there will be a code for country region like AFR TMC etc note that one down. You will need a ROM with exact country region.

There is a kitkat update for Libya and other countries of your neighbourhood. You can try this.

Official ROM for N920CZDAXSG

I have upgrade my ROM to Marshmallow 6.01 which is causing some problem.. Since I didn't took official ROM backup, I couldn't roll back to original official.... Can someone help me on this and upload official room, so that I can get the official ROM back and go for OTA update.
Note 5 Single SIM
Model - N920C
Region - Middle East

Hello, let me understand, by original rom you mean 5.1.1? And I would be curious what problems do you have with 6.0.1? Did you try a full wipe after installing 6.0.1? Cheers
I faced the same problem, and found the original stock rom in below link.

Yes I need the firmware which comes with the phone I think it was 5.1.1 (N920CZDAXSG)... After upgrading 6.0.1 the problem is battery drains soon (Just in 25mins 100 to 0) even after factory reset, went to service centre got busted using custom ROM.. They will not reverse it to official version since its violation of terms and condition... That is why I want to go for any original official version so that I can go with OTA update from samsung itself.

Hi, were you able to roll back the firmware? Would flashing be possible on the 928V? I have would like to be able to use the LTE bands that the Verizon version version has switched off by default..

Find version number of Samsung S8 Phone? (boot stuck on Samsung loading screen)

Hello,
So I recently rooted and installed a rom on my Galaxy S8 (extreme syndicate method). But I wanted to unroot and go back to stock so I downloaded a firmware from sammobile and flashed it using odin (I only added the BL, AP, and CP files during flash) and now it gets stuck on the samsung logo at boot. Can't enter recovery (can enter download mode).
So I think I'm not downloading the correct firmware for my phone from sammobile maybe? I have tried 4 different firmwares (2x android 9.0 firmwares - gives the stuck on samsung logo issue and 2x android 7.0 firmwares fail to flash correctly in Odin)
How do I know the right PDA or CSC version numbers for my phone without being able to get into it? I'm in Australia and it's a SM-G950U however not sure of the origins of the phone (could be an import, not sure).
Or any other things I could try to get it back to stock?
Thanks!
Well you need to go to about phone and look at build number. And when you flash the firmware flash csc. You rooted and dont know what build number you have? The firmware you flash has to be on the same bootloader of the current firmware you have

Thanks for your reply.
So I followed the instructions here to root forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8/development/root-t4060701 flashing the G950USQU7ASK1 firmware and worked fine.. I am unsure of the stock firmware/build number for this phone though. I can't find any compatible firmware on sammobile either.

I suggest getting your Stock ROM not from xda, but from Sammobile. To find your ROM on Sammobile, you need your phone model. You can find your phone model in Settings -> About phone. It's called "Model number". Then, use that to find your ROM on Sammobile.
The reason why your flash didn't work, is because you may have left out "CSC".

It's me again. So this is the page for your exact model: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s8/firmware/#SM-G950U
But it only seems to have ROMs for USA.
However this other version of the S8 does: https://www.sammobile.com/samsung/galaxy-s8/firmware/SM-G950F/XSA/
I suggest using the latter link. It's for a S8 from a different market, but it'll work regardless.

The latter link you posted isnt even for his model. If your gonna post info. It needs to be the correct info.
---------- Post added at 12:53 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:52 PM ----------
If you used extreme syndicate method you are on or near the latest firmware. Despite being 7.0 you are still on the latest. So its gonna be a bit 7 firmware. 5th digit from the far right end. Will be a 1 through 7. You need any firmware with a 7.
---------- Post added at 12:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:53 PM ----------
If your on windows. Google and download frija its fast and quick for latest firmware. So much better than Sam mobile or any site.

Dude, I know. I mentioned it in the reply.
That ROM will work on their device anyway, and it has the latest security update.
