Galaxy S4 Active I9295 will activate its hidden gems after it is upgraded to Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean. And the official tool which acquits itself of this task is the following: XXUAMH3 firmware.

Requirements

You will end up with the firmware we selected for this guide only if you go through what we prepared. Which begins with the requirements below:

  • save the data on your phone with one or numerous backups;
  • download Odin tool v3.07 from this link and (file name: I9295XXUAMH3_I9295OXXAMH3_BTU.zip) on the laptop;
  • make sure to fully charge the battery inside the handset if need be;
  • install the USB drivers which are fit for the phone on your notebook;
  • enable USB Debugging on your device.galaxy-s4-active-i9295

Instructions

  1. Then get in the thick of things by performing these tasks for step one: unzip the content of both update packages on your laptop, then switch your GT-I9295 off after you make sure Odin tool 3.07.exe and .tar.md5 are on the comp.
  2. Moving on: your handset will then need to be in Download Mode, so do that by simultaneously pressing + holding Home + Volume Down + Power; stop what you’re doing as soon as Android has its logo on the display and instead tap Volume Up. Launch, on your laptop, the Odin as Admin.
  3. If you’ve done all of the above, continue by plugging your phone to your notebook. For that, use the handset’s USB cord and have patience till the Odin finds your S4 Active; it will find it alright when you spot an “Added!!” message and when an ID:COM box in yellow are displayed on the display.
  4. Should neither the message and the box appear, use a USB port which differs from the one you’ve used so far or install the USB drivers again. If the devices are finally plugged to one another, you have to do the following: tap “PDA“, opt for the .tar.md5 file, click on “Phone“, select the file with MODEM in the name, tap “CSC“, opt for a CSC file, tap “PIT” and select a .pit file.
  5. Look for these check boxes next up: F. Reset Time, Repartition and Auto Reboot. When you’ve spotted them, check them (the second one should be opted for if you chose the .pit file). Then do this: look for “START” and tap it to get the installation phase started.
  6. [sc name=”banner-jos”]The Galaxy S4 Active I9295 will restart after the update file is on it; when you notice the following message, you will have to unplug the phone from your laptop: “PASS”. Your device’s “About phone” is where the Android 4.2.2 XXUAMH3 JB official firmware is hiding. Go to the location we mentioned and select this firmware to see what it can offer.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: You may notice the following: the smartphone remains frozen in a booting animation. If this situation also chances upon you, you can solve it by following these few guidelines: enter the phone in the Recovery Mode once more and then restart the smartphone after you wipe the system’s data by choosing the usual “factory reset/wipe data” and then “wipe cache partition“. These instructions should help you get rid of the previous mishap.
