QUERY: flashing another country firmware - possible? - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I bought a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge from South Korea, so it's model is SM-G925K (K for Korea).
I live in UK and I know UK model number is F, because I own a UK Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F).
I want to flash my Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge with UK firmware. I've tried many from sammobile:
5.0.2 Vodafone brand
5.1.1 BTU (unbranded)
but they all came back with NAND errors and fail.
The only firmware that worked was flashing it back to Korea 6.0.1.
Q. Could it have failed because I was trying to flash a 5.x.x firmware but it only accepts 6.x.x?
Q. Is it possible to do something to get it to flash a UK firmware on a South Korea Samsung phone?

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Tablets

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (SM-T800). I currently have CyanogenMod 12 installed, but i want to go back to my stock firmware.
when i search my device on the SamMobile firmware site, it gives a bunch of firmwares for different countries, but it does not give one for the United States, where i am living
Does it matter which firmware i use? Will i still receive OTA updates if i choose a random firmware?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Does it matter which firmware i use? - it does, don't flash wrong firmware, or you will soft-brick your tablet
if you still have orginal box or receipt, it should says something like this;
PDA: T800XXU1ANH1
CSC: T800UVS1ANG2
MODEM: T800XXU1ANH1
Notice the H1, G2, H1 at ends....which defines which country code region tablet belongs to..
Just give you an idea, for example my Galaxy TabPro 8.4 WiFI has "T320UEU1ANG1", which I bought it here in USA (bestbuy), and if I check sammobile, it shows as Cellular south, so means that's my offical firmware for my tablet that come with it.
So in your case, I believe yours is T800XXU1ANK1

TGY and ILO regions frimware compatibility?

Basically, I've bought Galaxy Tab S7 in Israel, but when I booted it up, I've discovered that it uses TGY region firmware. I'd like to know if I'm allowed to change firmware to ILO region and will there be any consequences for doing so?
And is there any usable material to read of what firmware from what regions is compatible to firmware of other regions?
Thanks!

Question Flashing a different CSC of different model. Question.

I have samsung galaxy f22 (smE225f). Its only available in few countries in the world, namely india, bangladesh, and nepal. I bought it in one of these countries and rooted it.
I want to use it in USA, i am wondering about flashing it with AP, BL, CP of the country of origin. However, which CSC file to use in this case. There is no F22 sold by samsung in USA.
Let's say samsung sells A71 in USA, so, will my phone be alright if I try to flash the CSC file of A71 in F22?
And what should I do about the root? should I unroot and then flash this again?
