Sometimes it may be difficult to find a firmware to download that is current with what you have on the phone already. This is why it is important to NOT LET THE PHONE update firmware prior to you attempting to root. === Firmware Image Version and Region ===The boot.img is patched, but the rest of the firmware files are not modified. So if you patch a boot.img from a firmware version different from your own installed version, this could brick the phone or cause other issues. A phone with ''''Build number: QPES30.79-124-7'''' requires the file: ''''XT2041-1_SOFIAR_RETBR_10_QPES30.79-124-7_subsidy-DEFAULT_regulatory-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip''' which seems strange as the RETBR suggests "Retail Brazil" and the phone is US Global. Foreign firmware can be an issue if flashing the entire firmware. Since we are only using boot.img we can get away with this as the boot.img is going to be the same, Brazil, Global, or USA. It is the rest of the firmware files that can have differences in features or radio frequencies. If you buy the phone meant for another market it may already have a foreign firmware. In this case you could download USA or Global and flash the entire firmware rather than just the boot.img.
