Hi Abhijit, sorry for the late reply. If you have the same model number then you can install this firmware. It should work for the Indian carrier as well. Backup and download the firmware for Indian variant i.e, 5.0.1 as a backup.
5.0.1 already installed, i want upgrade 5.1.1 it’s suitable?
already installed 5.0.1 i want upgrade version 5.1.1 it’s suitable for my device?
You may proceed, but have a backup.
i am using note 4 sm n-910g indian variant so please tell me can i install this update in my device?
yes, go ahead and update the firmware, it works on SM-N910G model
Installed 5.1.1 on Indian version Note 4 – SM-N910G, its working fine.
your device is rooted or not?
My phone is not rooted
can i install it in my indain variant sm n910g which now i have 5.0.1. i am confused.
You may face some radio problems (network & data) as it is for the Australian variant.
I’m from india with N910G and snapdragon variant. Should i give this a try? Will knox interfere with it?
Yes Neel, you can try it. Knox should not be a problem as it is a stock firmware.
But I checked the build number, and it is same as Australia TELSTRA carrier, so I don’t think that this will work with my Indian variant. Any thoughts?
As I can see the Indian variant has received update till v5.0.2 only. I think you should wait for the update to roll out or we will update the links as we get it.
Yes. Will wait only.
