This is driving me nuts! Downloaded the latest firmware for my G955F from sammobile. Inserted all the entries aswell as picked home_csc and flashed, toon 5sec and got a green bar with the text passed and the phone restarted. But still, TWRP aint gone nor Renovate ICE :/ What did I do wrong?

Tryed to download the firmware again just a few mins ago but the I just get redirected to sammobile's first page when pressing the download button..

Hello guys, im having a really hard time here because im kinda new in all this.

I have a G955FD, international unlocked, CRAP build was never released in my region so i flashed via update.zip, i never got an OTA, but it doesnt matter because my region's last update was the april security patch, i want the last one, i've been looking at sammobiles page, but again i cant download anything specific for my region because there is not anything so, can i just download the firmware of another region and flash it on my phone? will i have any troubles besides, again, not receiving OTAs? If the answer is yes which one do you recommend i download?

Thanks a lot in advance

As long as the firmware is for your specific model you can flash any region!

Hi all
I have a Samsung S8+, model SM-G9550, I've been trying to root my phone but without succeeded. I have used almost every root apps that I know but nothing.
I have watched on YouTube how to root using downloading mode but the problem is my phone can't get into download mode. When I press power+volume up+bixby it gives me 3 options to select:
1.recovery mode
2.fastboot mode
3.Normal mode
When I press power+volume down+bixby it gives me a list of many options in Chinese. I am stuck and don't know what to do please help.
