It is very much vital that you select the correct firmware for your device model. It is because each mobile device model has its unique firmware based on regions or other criteria. Each country has its own unique Android firmware code. So, for you to get the correct firmware for your Android device, first, you should know your country firmware code so that you do not understand the software. Two Android devices of the model will likely not the same firmware. That is to say that the firmware on every device is somewhat unique. Well, in this article, you’ll get to know the different firmware codes for all the countries in the world. Some states have more than one code; it means that any firmware version with any of those codes is relative to that country specifically.
How to see your Android device firmware version or number?
Apparently, before rooting a device or perform any administrative action on a device, you must take note of the exact firmware number or code. Most OEMs show the firmware code of a device as the “Build Number.” To see your device firmware/build number; go to settings >>> about >>> build number. Or go to Settings >>> About Device >>> Software Information >>> Software Version (For HTC users).

How to Select Firmware
In this article, we are concentrating on Samsung mobile models. However, for other models, the procedure is the same.
Practical explanation of a firmware number or code
Explain: I5700 version – I5700XEIL5 December 2009
The “15700” is the firmware version from the example above, the next “XE” is the countries which the firmware is related to, the “I” represents the year, “L” represents the month, and “5” stands for the actual version
XE = Bulgaria, Estonia, Kazakhstan, Lithuania, Russia, Ukraine, United Kingdom
I = 2009
L = December
5 = Version
From the above example, we select the firmware based on region; your mobile device can accept this firmware based on the model.
Below are the country codes and operator codes to serve as a reference for choosing the right firmware.

i have a samsung SM-G950U
Your mobile is working with other Mobile Network, So, I Consider You have Unlocked G950U version. Yes, there will be plenty of carrier firmware even for the unlocked version. You can try “XAS” version. Take a complete backup. If you have a Verizon carrier-locked version, Don’t try any method. It will brick your mobile. Other carriers- No Problem. After the firmware flash, you should contact your mobile operator regarding Network settings. They can assist you with that.
Hello, I have a galaxy s9 plus and my build number is g965fxxu2brh1 and my region is given as BNG/XSG as either Bangladesh or united Arab emirates… my one is stuck at android Oreo, and I want to update it to pie, but I can’t find any firmware for pie according to my build number. Do you know which firmware should I download which will be compatible with mine?
You have the International unlocked variant- SM-G965F. So, You can flash any region within your model number if you are an English Language user. But, If you want a specific language and exclusive region features, you should flash your respective region firmware.
So download any firmware for model G965F for the English language? And download any firmware within my region for my specific region features?
Yes. But You should not flash the Firmware twice. If you check the Model Number SM-G965F, You can notice lot of regions, From those regions, Select one.

I cannot seem to use the USSD code here in the Philippines since the phone is a Korean variant.
Thanks
Your model has a Snapdragon processor. International versions have an Exynos processor. Don’t flash International variant firmware; It may brick your device. Flash “K/L/S.” You can select between these three variants.

Please help me I am in Chad (Central Africa)
Flash “LUC” region firmware. We are going to use the ODIN method. Don’t worry about the Exact Buil number. We should only care about the model number. Only Select the SM-J530L model firmware.
I downloaded exactly the firemware LUC-J530LKLU3CSH7-20190916093825 but it didn’t work.
Odin always says : failed.

Hello please advise
I have a phone SM-A530F/DS
model SM-A530FZKDEUR
my phone stuck, and I can’t find the correct firmware.
Your model is UK based. Flash “VOD” Region firmware. Model No- A530F.
Refer below:
https://www.androidinfotech.com/samsung-galaxy-a8-2018-sm-a530f-n-w-pie/
Hi there, My mobile SM-G955F shows an error message “An error has occurred while updating the device software,” I tried to press POWER + VOL UP + BIXBY, then comes a Warning screen “if you want to download a custom OS, press the vol key. Otherwise, press the vol down key to cancel” And Upon press both, it goes back to Error screen.
But if I press the Bixby button, I get IMEI, SN, and DEVICE ID, and after that, whatever key I press Error message back.
I am stuck; please help.
I have tried already Smart Switch and Kies, it says “Does not support initializing”
You can flash the firmware manually using ODIN. Refer Below.
https://www.androidinfotech.com/samsung-galaxy-s8-plus-sm-g955f-pie/
hello I followed your tutorial to rooter the Samsung Galaxy note 8 unfortunately I did not note the serial number before the operations but from the Odin mode I could see that it is an sm-n950 of Luc region I wanted to know if its not a problem to flash this Rom of Korean region even if I do not live there
Can you mention the exact model number? Only SM-N950F (International variant) is compatible with other regions but within your model number. If you can’t get the Mobile Network after the firmware flash, Contact your mobile operator, they can guide you through setting up APN and other settings.
Hello there, thanks for your hard work.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and it is stuck on Odin mode showing me (Downloading, do not turn off target)
I tried to restart it using Power key + Volume down the key; Still, after the screen turns black and the logo of Samsung appears to reset suddenly. It returns to Odin mode. Again so after searching the web for solutions, someone mentioned download Odin flashing tool, driver software, and also suitable firmware. Still, the problem is I don’t know which firmware to use, and I can’t access my phone to remember.
By the way my phone model number SM-N950FZVDKSA
Does that mean my model is KSA based? So which firmware should I use?
Does the driver software mean a Samsung USB Driver?
Do I have to download a driver software to use the Odin flash tool?
I am sorry I asked you a lot, but I am not good with phones and these sorts of things, the whole thing was stressing me out for a long time now.
Your model belongs to the Gulf or Saudi Arabia. You can flash any firmware based on the region “KSA” within your model number- N950F. Flash latest Build number N950FXXU7DSJ1 to get October patch updates with enhanced features. You are flashing firmware, so there is no need to boot into recovery manually. Enable Auto Reboot in ODIN. Use the latest ODIN. Your phone will boot into Normal OS after a successful flash.
I am not sure I understood precisely everything, so can you please guide me through it step by step?
International model N950F, It has a lot of region firmware like India, Germany. It will be mentioned as codes. For your region, You should select the Model Number- “N950F” and part “KSA.”
I have rooted note 8, and I don’t know anything about it as I bought it for a person. I want to unroot it as it was before rooting. Can Samsung info app give me information required to search its original official stock firmware? What are required information for finding official stock firmware?
Hello Selva,
Thank You for all the information you give and your kind efforts.
Can you please help me with for this phone SM-G530H
I am trying to fix it for another person.
The Build number is KTU84P.G530HXXU2AOE5.
Which is the Correct Firmware For this Android Mobile?
If it is a Samsung Devices, It is Galaxy Grand Prime Model. You should flash “LYS”- Libya firmware.
Hi Selva,
You are doing immense work. Well Done!
I am trying to secure the build number for a Galaxy S7 Edge. I can’t boot into the OS due to the FRP lock. At the ODIN MODE, it shows SM-G935L as the product name. However, on the back cover, the product name, there is SM-G935F. How do I secure the firmware number, please? This is quite urgent. Thank you
Flash Firmware based on the model number- SM-G935F. Select Region based on your current area. It is an international unlocked version. So, You will not face any problem.
Were you able to flash a new firmware on your device? I am having a similar problem with my Samsung galaxy note 8, SM-N950F/DS.
Flash Pie 9.0 version.
Hey, I’ve Samsung galaxy s10 plus at&t unlocked version (USA) model number: SM-G975U, but now I want to flash SM-G975F on my phone. So is it possible to do that?
If you have an unlocked version, You can flash the firmware manually. But, the US and International variants have different processors. Yes, US variants come with Snapdragon, and the International version comes with Exynos processor. So, You should not flash the different model number firmware. It will affect your mobile function.
Hi Selva
Great work, you doing, thank you.
Samsung SM-A60 region South Africa only firmware I can find is from China; please advise.
Thank you. Can you mention your mobile model number?
Samsung Galaxy SM-A6060
Your Model number is China region based. If you are in other region, No Problem. Flash the China region based firmware.
Hey, I Have Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e Lte (SM-t727v). It is Unlocked Verizon Tab I Want to Flash Samsung Stock Firmware to Remove Verizon Bootload & Verizon Blocks Pre-installed Apps & Also Some Features Like Call & Message Continuity. So Can You Please Suggest Which Firmware Stall I Flash & How. I Tried Flashing SM-t727 & SM-t725 via Odin but It Gives Error (Secure Check Fail: Pit)
First of all, none of the version devices can be flashed via ODIN without unlocking Bootloader. The hard part is Verizon unlocking bootloader is process will take a lot of effort. Don’t try to flash other firmware. It will brick your mobile.
I think the bootloader is unlocked as I’m able to navigate to downloading mode & bootloader mode both. now what is the further process which rom shall I flash to remove version form phone.
Can you mention your current Mobile Build Number? You can find this in the Software Info. As per your model number is locked Bootloader. As I said flashing the different firmware will brick your mobile.
I have a galaxy tab A t380 what firmware do I need it in Canada.
Region: “XAC” and try with Build number: T380DXU3CSK1. It is Pie 9.0 based version.
Hi, I got a weird long build number.
LRX21T.G900FXXS1BPC3
I am trying to get an update from 5 to 6 Android versions. I bought it, and I live in Europe, but only one code I could find is BPC – Panama, and no 6th version update is listed. It really can be for Panama? Dang, it.
Your model is International variant. You can flash any region within your model that is not carrier dependent. You can flash G900FXXU1CPK2 build number firmware.
I’ve got a device from South Korea (SM-N976N). Can I update to Global Version (SM-N975F or SM-N976F)?
Hai, Your model is an S10+ 5G version. The network heavily depends on the firmware. If your mobile is not carrier locked, We can flash International variant because of the same hardware. But, It is an experiment. It may break 5G connectivity. So, unless you have strong reasons, Don’t go for that.
Hey, Selva Ganesh. I need help with upgrading S8+ from Android 7.0 to Android 9.0 for the first time. Can I send you the software information somewhere?
Thank you in advance.
Greetings from Croatia!
Hai, If you have Non-Rooted mobile, Try With Samsung SmartSwuith, before the Manual Odin method.
SM-G611FDDU1ARB2 wants to upgrade to android 8 or 9… But haven’t found an exact match, how can I do it?
You can flash the SM-G611F model number select the variant, which is near to your region.
J600FXXU6BSk6
What its compatibale country firmware i am in somalia
You can try this Region ECT (Nigeria).
Hello,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 with Android 8.0, and my build number is R16NW.G960USQU1ARB6.
My phone is stuck in a boot loop/Odin mode, and I was told by both Verizon and Samsung that I needed to flash my phone. I’m trying to find the correct stock firmware to stay with Oreo and not update to Pie, but I’m not sure what firmware to use.
Also, I read that, “If you install the same firmware of the same country on your Galaxy S9, then the data present in it won’t be lost even after installing stock firmware.”
So this is essentially what I’m trying to do.
Verizon mobiles have locked bootloaders. So, the usual method won’t work with your mobile. First, flash the unlocked G960U variant Pie firmware after that, flash the Verizon carrier firmware.
What are the firmware numbers that I need to look for? And does it have to be Pie instead of Oreo?
Remove your SIM. First flash SM-G960U1 Verizon firmware. It is an unlocked bootloader version. After the successful flash, Insert the SIM again. Most of the time, After inserting your Verizon SIM, the OTA will automatically come to your mobile. When you can’t update Now flash, SM-N960U Verizon firmware.
When finding the right firmware, does the PDA or CSC have to match my build number exactly?
It should match with your Model number. You can find your model number in the Settings> About> Build number. Example- J730FXXU6CSK6. In this build number, J730F is a Model number. As I already mentioned first flash G960U1 VZW firmware. If your SIM didn’t push the update automatically again flash the G960U VZW firmware.
Hi, Selva, Thank you for your full accountability.
I have Tp-link neffos x1lite and going to install a rooted and another version of my firmware.
I found the original firmware on neffos, but it wasn’t what I needed. Where can I find a suitable, rooted, and free firmware for my smartphone? Could you help me?
When you are not in massive audience manufacturers, You always find difficulties like this. But, they officially support the sideload of the firmware. You can contact them directly and request for the firmware file. They will surely help you with this.
Hello brother.
I’m using Samsung Galaxy Note 9
Model: SM-N960U
Can you plz help me in choosing the correct firmware?
Did you have a carrier locked mobile or unlocked bootloader?
Hi Selva:
The three build numbers are SM-J106MZDATPA, SM-J106MUBS0ARE3, or SM-J106MUBU0AQI1
Can you tell me the correct firmware?
Thank you, Debra
You can flash J106MUBS0ARE3 (CHO — Chile) region firmware.
Hi Selva, My s10 plus’ build number is AP: G975FXXS3ASJG CP: G975FXXS3ASJA, CSC: G975FOXM3ASJD, MODEL : SM-G975F/DS.
can you please help me what firmware do I need for one UI 2.0? Thank you
You can flash G975FXXS3BSL4.
Hi, I am in Belgium, and my S10+ has a build number SM-G975FXXU3BSKO. However, my service provider SW version indicates LUX.
But I cannot find a firmware for Belgium, can I install the Luxembourg one? Thanks a lot.
LUX is a short form of Luxembourg.
Hello! I have a Samsung galaxy note 8 models SM-N950W single sim version from Canada. I want to flash the duo’s release. Since I’m living now in the Phils. And would like to use two sims. Would it be possible to flash the duos firmware from the Philippines version on my unit. Thanks
The Dual-SIM depends on the physical part also. You should have Dual SIM capability on your mobile. By flashing the firmware, only, you can’t get the Duos feature.
Yes, I will buy a hybrid dual sim tray. So you mean to say I can flash the dual sim firmware. But I was wondering about the CPU type. What I have is Qualcomm Snapdragon 835, while the dual sim international version firmware should be compatible with Exynos, right?. Please advise. Thank you.
What here you are asking is purely experimental. I can’t predict the result. It may or may not work. Dual SIM does not only depend on the firmware. It is related to hardware antennas. So, Unless your model has dual-mode support, We can’t tell whether it can work with your setup or not.
I got your point. Thanks
Hello,
Thank you for everything. I just bought the new Galaxy a 51 from eBay the seller was from Taiwan the phone was unlocked, and I’m using it in Canada. I’m having a problem with the Bluetooth disconnecting all the time. I did some research I believe I have to update the firmware, I found some downloads:
A515FXXU2ATA8/A515FOJM2ATB1/A515FXXU2ATA8
But it’s showing me that it is for the United Arab Emirates. I’m wondering if this works, or is there specific download but for the region of Taiwan? What should I do? Where can I find the right download, please?
Before the manual flash method, Try with Samsung SmartSwitch. You have International variant. SO, You can flash any region firmware within the A515F model number.
Thank you. Any links to explain how to use a smart switch to do that?
Also, will the manual method delete my apps and data?
Yes. If you tried ODIN based manual method, you would lose data. Take a complete backup. If you sue the Samsung SmartSwitch method, you won’t lose data. You can get the software on the Official Samsung page.
Hi my country is zimbabwe it’s not listed bt the build version of android 9 is N960FXXU3CSF9 I want to download android 10 I don’t know which region to use
Your model is the International variant. You can use any region within the “F” model number. If you prefer your nearby region, you can use XFE or XFA.
Okay Sir thank you very much
My build number is
R16NW.G965FXXU2BRH1. I want to update to android 10, but no firmware with my build number has an android 10 update. So can I use any firmware within my device’s region?
You can Flash- XSG- United Arab Emirates.
@Selva Ganesh, my phone is still on Oreo update… Can I directly flash it to android 10 using XSG firmware Skipping android 9 or one UI version 1?
Yes, you can flash the firmware using ODIN. Remember, this method will delete user data. So, Take a complete backup. Or try with Samsung SmartSwitch software before this method to work as a suitable method.
I have Samsung A50 SM-A505F/DS MODEL A505FZBCDKR

Hello,
My phone is R16NW.G930VVRSBCTA1. Its S7 with Verizon, I can’t upload TWRP in or flash it with any other firmware. Your help is appreciated. Please provide a complete method as I am a noob.
Best Regards
Verizon mobiles are carrier-locked mobiles. You have to follow specific steps to flash TWRP. You can’t use conventional methods.
Hello,
My phone is a GT-S7580(galaxy trend plus), and I tried to flash with Odin a Spanish PHE version, but after that, the phone keeps showing firmware upgrade encountered an issue…
I tried to install Poland CSC versions with the same result. Why its Poland if I bought this phone in Spain?
Model Name GT-S7580UWAXEO
CSC XEO
Country/Region Poland
Carrier OPEN
You can flash S7580XXUBOA1 firmware. It is Poland (XEO) region firmware.
I already did that, Odin flashes it ok, but the phone keeps saying that firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please help me
Try with Samsung SmartSwitch.
Smartswitch detects it under download mode, but it says that this phone doesn’t support smartswitch, and I should use Kies. Kies says that this phone doesn’t support firmware initialization and recovery.
Boot into Stock recovery if you can and try with Kies. If It doesn’t work, uninstall Kies and end the process in task manager. Boot into Stock recovery and Wipe user data and make clean flash firmware using ODIN.
I can’t boot into recovery…only download mode
Ok. Try this. Uncheck the Auto-Reboot in ODIN. Flash the firmware. After you getting Pass, Press Volume Down+ Power button to exit download mode. Immediately press Volume Up+Home+power to boot into recovery. Wipe user data.
It doesn’t work, I tried now, but it exits download mode and enters to that screen firmware upgrade issue encountered an issue…what should I do?
Some older firmware files stuck in the boot. We have to remove those files using Wipe.
How can I do a wipe if I cant enter in recovery?
When you get a warning screen, Press Volume Down+Power and Press Volume Up+Power immediately.
It doesn’t work, my friend, I can’t get into recovery, only in download mode…are any excellent rom to flash? I can’t download from Sammobile because the rom it’s too old and it has been archived only premium users can do download it..please help me, please give me good advice.
Try on the Samfrew website.
Ok, so now I have the correct rom, confirmed with Samsung support, flashed it but with the same result. What can I do?
We resolved the issue like this. The only way is to flash the correct firmware using ODIN. Try with other Spain region firmware- ATL, AMN, PHE, YOG, XEC.
I tried to flash every Spanish version of the rom with the same result. Do you think it could have a locked bootloader, and that is what causes this issue? If so, how can I unlock its bootloader? I only can enter in download mode.
I think some script or boot files are stuck. You can try this. There is an official version of TWRP available for your model. Flash The TWRP using ODIN in Download mode with untick the Auto-Reboot. Press Volume Down+power to exit download mode. Immediately press volume Up+Power to boot into TWRP Recovery. Wipe user data, System Data. Try to flash the firmware again.
flashed every version of twrp for this model with the same result, I’m desperate
We try as much as possible. I hope we can find a solution soon. Did you get same error- firmware upgrade encountered an issue?
yes the same result, firmware upgrade encountered an issue, Odin flashes it ok, no error in Odin but in my phone screen the same issue always.
Unless we succeed with the Download Mode, We can’t do much. Try With different versions of ODIN. The Stock Recovery is corrupted. Try this- Download the firmware and extract the firmware. You will get four files. Extract the AP file again. You will get the recovery.img. Flash this file in AP using ODIN after that, try to boot into Recovery and Wipe user data and cache files, System. When everything is done, try to flash the firmware again. This time no extract. Single file in AP. We will do our best. Every mobile value is based on how you get. every mobile is important..:)
I extracted the stock ROMs ap folder, but the recovery its a .img file, and Odin cant flash this type of files…should I use an external archiver to transform it to tar? should work?
Yes, use 7zip to convert it.
No buddy, the same result, Odin flashes it ok, but that screen always comes up.
There will always be a solution to problems. I will come with an answer soon.
ok buddy. ill wait
have you found some solution for my phone buddy?
No. We will keep trying to find a solution. Since it is an old device, it has compatibility issues.
Hello,
I use an SM-J510FN and want to update to Android 7.1.1, but the firmware doesn’t exist for my region XSG. Will it be okay to flash the firmware of a different region?
Thanks for your support.
First, try with Samsung SmartSwitch. When you can’t get the update, you can flash J510FNXXU2BRL1 firmware—backup before flash using ODIN.
I tried Samsung SmartSwitch didn’t get the update.
I flashed J510FNXXS3BSH2 (BTU) using ODIN. Works flawlessly.
Thank you so much.
We feel great…:)
Hello,
Trying to find the firmware a105fnxxu3asl3,
I cannot find it. Please help, pretty please.
Try with the below details.
MODEM Version A105FNXXU3ASL3
Region NEE — Nordic Europe.
The AP/PDA Value will vary.
Will I be able to remove the FRP lock from the phone if I flashback its stock firmware?
I want to remove the Google FRP lock.
You can. But, You will lose user data.
Hello. I live in Jamaica, and I have the galaxy a51f BRI. from Taiwan. Can I change it to my country region or any other country region? Thanks
Unless you have a strong reason to do that, Don’t use the manual method. You can always update your mobile using Samsung SmartSwitch when you can’t do the auto method.
So are you saying that because the phone is from Taiwan, I can’t flash the Jamaica firmware on it?
You can flash any firmware within your model number because it is an international unlocked variant. But, I am suggesting you should flash the firmware only if you need it.
So which other firmware can I install on it because the smart switch doesn’t work?
Am awaiting your response. Thanks
I have an s7 sm-G930VL. But it does not let me use a smart call. What can I do to get it to work on my phone? It’s a feature that is supposed to be on it.
Instead of downloading the app from Play Store, try to use it in Galaxy Store.
My note 8 (N950F) is down (custom binary blocked by FRP lock ), and I don’t know my build number, can you help me.
N950F is an international variant. You can flash nearby region firmware within the “F” model number.
Hi, I’m stuck, and I would be so happy if you can help me,
After rooting, I disabled Oem lock, and after a while, I turned off and turned on my s8 sm950f, the problem is that now it doesn’t turn on because it’s stuck on Custome Binary Blocked by FRP. I cannot use Odin bcuz Oem it’s locked…is there any way to unlock the Oem by pc and install new firmware keeping the root ? or even reset it into the factory? Thanks again
Your model is an unlocked international variant. Flash the respective Region firmware using ODIN, and you are good to go when you can boot into your mobile without any error, Flash firmware using Flashify app.
The version of my Samsung Galaxy S9 is G960FXXS2BRK3, and I cannot seem to find it in the list- Can I still update it to Android 9?
You can flash the Android 10 use Build number- G960FXXU8DTC5. Region- EUR-Greece.
Hello Ganesh, How are you? I hope you are safe. So I have a Galaxy s7 which I bought when I was in New Zealand, I’m now in India and want to use Jio sim without “Jio4call” app. I can’t make any calls. I can’t use SMS and Google pay-services/UPI since my phone firmware is stuck as TNZ CSC. Buil number: R16NW.G930FXXS7ETB4. If you could guide what I should do in my condition, that would be a big help.
Thank You.
Harry
I feel great. I hope you are safe too..:) Most of the VoLTE option mobiles will work with the Jio seamlessly. If you think you can’t get the options, You can flash the INS Region version build number. But you will lose user data. So, You should take the complete backup before doing the process—Flash G930FXXU1DQE7 INS Region firmware using ODIN. After the successful flash change APN in settings as per Jio customer service and enable VoLTE in Network settings.
First of all, thank you for your reply and for taking the time to write me back. I forget to mention that my phone has a security patch update on Feb this year and my phone binary firmware is 7 G930FXXS7ETB4 so going for G930FXXU1DQE7 shows error(what I understand is downgrading is not possible in this). Do you think I should try PAK region G930FOJV8ETCA since it has upgrade binary 8!! I’m not an expert or anything so whatever I understand I am sharing with you but I need your guideline for what to do next.
Thank you.
Yes, you can flash G930FXXS8ETCA or INS region G930FXXU7ETA9. Both come with VoLTE Support. Choose firmware under the model number “FD.”
Hey just want to say thank you and it worked out in the end.
Great..:)
Hello. I bought my s7 edge(SM-G935F) from Dubai and I’m using it in India. But VoLTE is disabled in the UAE version. Can I change the firmware to the INS version(SM-G935FD)?
Or is there any other way to enable the VoLTE?
Yes, you can do that. Take a complete backup before doing the process.
Hi Selva. Trust you and your family are safe.
I’m in South Africa and own a Samsung s7. My phone was locked due to a custom binary FRP error message, so I decided to use ODIN to flash the firmware. I installed a newer version, but now my phone won’t register my sim card, no calls, no internet, no nothing. And when I check about the phone, I see a UAE TRA I.d now I think that could be the problem. Please guide me as to how to resolve this and still keep my data.
Model number: SM-G930FD
Build Number: R16NW.G930FXXU2EREM
FRP is Factory Reset Production. We can’t boot into your mobile until we perform Reset or Flash using ODIN. We will lose the data. You should flash the FD Firmware. Don’t flash “F.” Build number- G930FXXS8ETCA. Region-XSG.
Hello. I’m using SM-J701F I want firmware building number =PPR1.180610.011.J701FXXS8CTC1
please help me
Try with XTC — Philippines Region firmware. You can find the build number.
I Have a Samsung A30 in Algeria, but It might be imported from Russia.
Which Firmware can I use?
Modèle number A305FXXU1ASBA
The build number is related to the XXV — Vietnam region. You can flash the firmware within the specified area.
Hello Ganesh,
Please help me with the S8+ Korean mobile (Single sim), Android Pie.
I want to flash the G955FD Indian Firmware version to G955N, is it possible?
Do I have to root my mobile for this?
And will it make my mobile dual sim?
My mobile build no is PPR1.180610.011.G955NKSU4DTD1.
Thanks in advance.
Technically it will work with the single SIM option. But, It will not have a dual SIM option Because of no physical SIM slot. It is wise to flash the international “F” variant instead of “FD.”
I tried the F variant but failed with the message on mobile ‘Secure check fail – Bootloader. Now there is an error message in the Korean language; the only thing I can read is smart-switch. But I don’t have a serial no. of devices.
It can get into downloading mode for a very short time & not in recovery mode. Please help.
Samsung SmartSwitch can automatically detect your model and suggest the firmware. Try that.
Hi everyone, i can’t get the exact firmware code for my Samsung SM-J610F Android 9 phone. My phone build number is PPR1.180610.011.J610FXXS5BTD1
I’ll wait for your reply.
Thank you!
If you want to flash the latest Pie version, Flash J610FXXS5BTD2 build number with the region- THL — Thailand.
Hello, selva,
I just bought a note 8 from the market, noticed later it was custom ROM, I flashed to official firmware not knowing much about regions, etc. Unfortunately, it appeared to be a Korean variant. But I have a dual sim phone, which suggests it is an FD model. I am having a hard time now finding the right firmware for my phone. My phone is showing Build num: PPR1.180610.011.N950NKSU5DTD2. Please help out. Thanks in advance.
You can use the “F” variant. In choosing “F” variant firmware, Flash your current region or near region. Because the features will work fine with your mobile operators, Samsung firmware will automatically detect the SIM numbers and enable the Dual SIM feature.
Hi, I’m in the UK. I have a Samsung J5 SM-J500F/DS.
It is on Android 5, but I want 6. The build number is LMY470.J500FXXU1APB4.
There is no update for the UK.
In your article above, you mention that the build number gives my region. Other websites suggest this is for Europe.
However, on Samsung’s official website, there is no obvious choice – Greece or Portugal seems to be the best guess.
However, I wonder if I should use the most recent update, which is from India.
Is this right, and what would be the effect of using an update that is not for the UK?
Thanks.
“F” is an international version. Most of the firmware within this variant is compatible with each other. The only difference is they will differ in features. India version may have VoLTE feature where some region doesn’t have. Yes, you can flash the INS firmware or J500FXXS1BQE1 (EUR — Greece).
Thanks so much for your help.
Hi! Yes, I would like to know if I can downgrade my S8-G950FD?
G950FXXS8DTC1 / G950FXXS8DTC1
My region is the Philippines (XTC) and the reason, the ACCELEROMETER.
Thank you in advance if you can help me, by the way, I have had two sleepless nights trying to downgrade it.
PS. My phone’s OEM is unlocked, and my phone is rooted because I rooted it a while back using twrp, and it’s stuck, I guess? Yep that’s all
If you already have root access. Install the Flashify app and install the firmware through that app. Try with Nougat 7.0 G950FXXU1AQG5 XEG — Germany. When you can’t install through the app, You have to use the ODIN method. It will wipe your data and root access. So Take complete backup first.
I will try, btw I just woke up, so yeah will start now on what you just said for me to do.
After my device get blocked by FRP lock, I tried flashing the stock rom, and my device came back to normal without any data loss. After installing the stock rom, I have found a bug while opening my front cam. It shows that “Warning: Camera failed.”But rear cam works well. My device model is SM-J200G. The build number is LMY47X.J200GDDU2ARD2.How can I fix the camera not working?
Try with third-party camera apps. Does the camera warning appear suddenly or it can show a few seconds of view?
The camera warning comes suddenly
Mention your mobile model and build number.
Model :SM-J200G
Build number: LMY47X.J200GDDU2ARD2
The final version for your model is a lollipop. If you want to flash the latest security patch update, you can flash J200GDCU2ARL1 IN India version. But if you’re going to try to flash Marshmallow or Nougat, you can try Custom ROMs.

What to do.. there are many Asian firmware files… plz help me my HTC mobile is now in boot loop.. so I need help
You can flash an unlocked version. Most of the HTC firmware files are bundled with the flashable script, and they can run in Windows. So, It won’t need additional software.
Hi, I have the SM-A520F 2017 model, I can’t access the build number. I bought the phone in the UK. I bought it already unlocked.
Can you help me find the correct firmware, please?
Did you want to stay with the UK region firmware or your current region?
Hey there, I have Samsung Galaxy Note 8, and it is not VOLTE supported, so the only option I got is to flash is with the correct firmware, how can I find the correct one
my build number is
PPR1.180610.011.N950UHU4DSD1
It is a carrier locked mobile or unlocked variant? If you have a carrier locked mobile. Most of the time, your carrier supports the VoLTE option. You can get help from them.
Its the unlocked one
Ok. Most of the carriers, like Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T, supports VoLTE. Since it is an unlocked variant, Carriers didn’t have much control. Connect your mobile with Samsung SmartSwiutch and update it to the latest version and try to find the enable option. But if you are outside the US, You have to flash the International variant firmware manually.
Oh, okay, so where can I find the correct international firmware.
Can you share the link, thanks?
You can refer sammobile, Samfrew websites.
Hi – how about this build number? What country/region is this?MMB29K.A710YDXU1BQE1. The model is SM-A710Y.
You can flash XTC- Phillippines region-based firmware.
Hi, I am looking to upgrade my android ITEL 1508 5.1 version to a higher Android Version, possibly 6 or 7. Or a custom rom.Pls advise.
There are no exact custom ROM available for your device. Flashing different ROM can affect your mobile.
Hi sir,
How can I find the correct firmware for my Samsung note 8 SM-N950FXXSADTB1?
Pls, sir, help me out my phone keep auto restarting.
Use BTU- United Kingdom firmware.
What useful info! Thank you! Recently I’m checking my phone CSC at a website, and it shows my CSC is SPR, which is not on the lists.
The build number is PPR1.180610.011.N960USQS2CSGB.
Also, may I know what is the correct firmware for my device? I was hoping that my device can use one UI 2.0.
If you have an unlocked carrier, you can flash any carrier firmware within the US region. You should flash your current mobile operator firmware. If you have Verizon SIM, You should flash Verizon firmware. You can select the firmware within the Unlocked US N960U model.
Is that mean I can flash any firmware under N960U even the CSC and the baseband are different?
Since I bought my phone online (used) and I stay in Malaysia. So I don’t have Verizon sim.
If you are outside the US, Flash N960U1 firmware not “U.”
N960U1UES4DTF2
XAA-United States
Hello Selva, I would like to upgrade from Android 7.0 to Oreo 8 firmware but am having difficulty figuring out which one to use. I don’t understand the Build number on my A720F/DS, which reads “NRD90M.A720FXXU2BQL8” – Which regional firmware should I download, please?
Also, my phone is currently unlocked and rooted – should I follow the process on your website here: https://www.androidinfotech.com/samsung-galaxy-a7-2017-sm-a720f-oreo/ If so, will it erase my data?
Once I have updated, can I unroot and lock the phone again?
Thanks for your help
Flash firmware using Flashify app. Or Else you will lose root access.
You can try UAE based firmware. TUR-Turkey.
Hi again, I went to the Oreo 8.0.0SM-A720F/region/XSG/…Do I flash the May 2020 Security update only, or do I have to flash the earlier ones as well?
Thanks
You can flash the A720FXXS9CTE2 version.
Hello again, I flashed UAE based firmware through Odin, and it appeared successful. Still, the phone doesn’t seem to acknowledge my sim cards – I have: done a soft reset, master reset, reseated the sims, tried resetting network settings but they are not accessible it seems – Should I re-flash the same firmware or use the TUR-Turkey version (does it make any difference) – or try something else?
Thanks
Contact your mobile operator and configure the settings as per their Instructions.
Hello, I’m having a problem with choosing the firmware. My phone is the Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Model number: SM-N950F/DS. However, the build number says N950NKOU4CRH2. So which model should I choose to find the firmware too? Is it N950F or N950N. Because in the N950F section, there is no firmware for the Korean region. Meanwhile, there is only firmware for the Korean part if I look at N950N.
Thank you very much
Check which processor you have. When you have a Snapdragon processor, Don’t flash the “F” variant. You have to flash your “N” variant.
I purchased a Samsung note 8, smn950n, build no.- ppr1.180610.011.n950nksu5dtd2

Dear sir:
I’ve had a Samsung galaxy 10.1 2014 tab ( sm-p601) for a long time, I did a rooting to it ages ago and wanted to update as it has gotten very old, so I needed to unroot, using the superS unroot didn’t work as I’m still unable to update the device. So I need to do a factory reset and flash a firmware.
so id like to know which one exactly to download
the build number is: JSS15J.P601XXUBMJB
I’m currently living in Jordan.
Thank you
You can flash P601XXSDPK1 using Flashify app if you need root. Or You can directly flash using ODIN.
