Hi mates ,


If you have a 4.4.2 bootloader you can not flash ( odin) any firmware with a bootloader older that that. You can only flash (odin) firmware with the same bootloader or newer. This apply to stock firmware not custom firmwares as they do not have bootloaders

@alialjorany can you get into download mode? flash firmware again

Sounds like you know what you're talking about, so could you clarify how and what files we would need to flash firmware via download mode instead of Odin.

Thanks!

can i downgrade bootloader to 4.2.2?

Never try doing that again or else you shall have a $450 brick :/

If youre on 4.3, flash 4.3 or higher
If youre on 4.4.2 flash 4.4.2 or higher

If youre on 4.2.2 flash 4.3 or 4.4.2 but remember there is no way back..

Press Thanks if I helped :)

thnx guys, i just downgrade my 4.4.2 i9500 to 4.2.2 using this file "I9500XXUBMH1_I9500OJVBMH2_I9500XXUBMG9_HOME.tar.md5"
but i failed to flash it with other 4.2.2 versions, and i later known that its because "I9500XXUBMH1" has same bootloader of 4.4.2. so any idea?
here in turkey we have problem with repair imei at 4.4.2

thanks in advance
