You should mention that downloading and installing of g-apps is not necessary in most cases. F-Droid is a really good alternative market. And if you still need apps not available on f-droid you may use yalp or aurora...

And if you depend on some google services microG may be a good solution for you, especially in the flavour of NanoDroid.
In your lists of variants (bootloader etc.), I don't see SM-S975L. Has this variant been dropped?
Sry if I miss it, there are so many variants...
Thanks for mention it, I will take a look and I will add it soon.
Welcome to XDA and this forum. Here on XDA we use the English language. But a lot (most?) of us aren't native English speakers. And automated translations sometimes aren't clear and correct. So it is good practice to try to translate your text to English and doublecheck the translation yourself. And to add your original text for native speakers, too, if in doubt...Glupio pytac ale trzeba. Mam s4 9505 zmienilem modem i bootloder z I9505XXUHOJ2 na XXUHQK1 Teraz nie mam LTE tylko E. Wiem dla Was budowniczych to smiech a dla mnie zagadka wiec prosze budowniczych o wskazowke zebym wrocil na lte
Sorry. In my school they only taught Russian, but there are translators. Stupid to ask but have to. I have s4 9505 variable modem and bootloder from I9505XXUHOJ2 to XXUHQK1. Now I don't have LTE only EDGE. I know for you builders to laugh and for me a riddle so I am asking builders for a tip that I would come back to LTE.
Wi-fi enabled is ok, just outside edge
Make sure you have the same Firmware version as your Modem & Bootloader version. If you have flashed QK1 Modem and Bootloader then you need to flash QK1 Firmware.
As I mentioned, English is a translator. QK1 Firmware need to be installed after changing the modem and bootloder? This is for Croatia and Austria. Is Polish in your settings? Clean and upload v12.1? I guess the questions are at child level but I am asking for help anyway.
Doesn't matter if you flash Firmware after or before. Your Modem and Bootloader will stay as it is, unless you flash again different Modem & Bootloader.
Country doesn't matter, you will find your language in settings.
What do you mean "clean and upload v12.1"?
Don't worry, ask anything you want. I will try to help.
Let it not be, without petroleum jelly, nice that a professional wants to help and not to instruct. S4 small, grateful phone, not the pingpong rackets. I started with cyanegen through other mods and worked out after changing the boot. I understand that after this change you need to upload the official I9505XXUHQK1 and then flash on v12.1? I just downloaded I9505XXUHQK1 T-Mobile.
I don't really understand what you wanna do.
You can find everything in my guides and collection in OP and post #2.
What is v12.1 you are talking about? Optimized LineageOS v12.1? You wanna flash that ROM or you want to flash Stock ROM?
What ROM do you use right now and what you wanna do?
Do you mean S4 mini when you speak about small S4? This device isn't i9505 aka jfltexx.Let it not be, without petroleum jelly, nice that a professional wants to help and not to instruct.

Perhaps you should look at https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-mini/orig-development/rom-lineageos-16-0-s4-mini-t3833063 or it parent forum.
Hello,Sorry if this is a stupid question.
Your post says not to worry about country too much but ensure you have the latest f/w. I'm UK (BTU) before I put LOS 16 on. Baseband etc was HPK2. Am I right in thinking the one in OP's collection (HQK2) is later and therefore fine for my i9505? Basically I'm looking to get the latest and/or best modem for my phone (slight signal issues on HPK2 and a weird voice feedback for the other end that doesn't happen on any other phone with the same SIM. I'm wondering if it could be modem related but my knowledge is limited.
SO yeah my question is - HPK2 (specifically for my phone and region) or is HQK2 latest and if so will it brick my phone?
Thanks
Firmware = Official Stock Samsung ROMI followed the guide for the bootloader and modem, but they wouldn't update. So are you saying I have to flash the matching firmware as well in order to get the bootloader and modem to update? THEN I can go back to a custom ROM?
I may be confusing "firmware" with "stock rom"...
