Model number compatibility? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This may be a noob question, so bear with me...
I have the sprint S4. Can I use any kernels / ROMs / Mods designed for the "9505" or do I have to stick with what's in sprint GS4 dev forum?
Thanks guys!

New to S4

So I just recently bought this beast of a phone, and I'm loving it. I am rooted and stuff and have been messing around with the ROMS on the forum for the Verizon S4. I found this forum the other day and was wondering if I can flash these ROMS to my S4 which is i545 rather than the i9505 or i9500. So can i flash these ROMS like a normal flash or would I have to do something different to get these ROMS like MiUi on my phone. ( I love MiUi.) Thanks for the help

For safety of the device stay away from other then your device forum
As other varaiants will have different mount codes and kernel which mostly will brick your phone

Run Verizon hyper drive rom on att s4

Hey guys.
I think I know how to this, but not sure. What things are required? I am using safestrap but reading ax's guide, it says I need Loki. Also do I need a converter zip,? Thanks

Your sig says you have an i9505. Your info says you are on Sprint. And...you are asking about a Verizon ROM in the AT&T forum. Wow.
Might need to clarify a few things before you can get some help.
Oh wow haha lol. Funny story here. I recently switched from sprint (about a month ago). Never bothered to change that to att I guess lol. Second, I'm running goldeneye 8.0 so I guess that's a build prop thing by Tapatalk

you need to flash the mf3 module zip after the rom and I think you may need to change apn settings

Can you share what you did to get it to work? I'm using the T-Mobile SGH-M919 S4 thanks in advance.

You just need to fish the T-Mobile compatibility module right after flashing the rom.

Flash the rom
then flash your att loki kernel, should boot just fine....no converter zip needed. Btw, what converter zip are you talking about?

What ROM is everyone using right now

Just curious to hear what people are currently running on their S4. I just noticed it looks like 4.3 update is finally available for ATT so might just flash that for now.

Questions go in the Q&A section.
Using stock 4.3 mk2.

Is mk2 good? I thought I read something negative about it somewhere... And was that the one where once you update to that you can't revert?

You can't revert once you're past MF3. MK2 has been working just fine for me, the only negatives are you don't get ROMs or recovery, neither TWRP/CWM or SafeStrap. Also, they removed the network data toggle which does suck.
You mean from the drop down where you can just flick it on/off? I don't use that one too much but I know what you mean...hate when I lose toggles I was using before.
But No ROMs or recovery?? Is that just cause it's pretty new? Seems surprising

I'm using Gummy 4.4.2 and it's working awesome!
Well, this thread is being closed as "everyone" is a subjective term, there are plenty of ROMS for many users that many are using.
This question can only be answered by the individual user? Try all the roms over in the development threads - that is why we are here, and the fun part of the journey.

SPH-L720T-specific ROMs?

So, I just got back from Sprint. My SPH-L720 died on me unexpectedly and they just gave me this SPH-L720T model. This brings some questions that I've been searching for the last few hours but hadn't hit the right answer.
Are the regular SPH-L720 ROMs compatible with this? Is there going to be a separate TriBand forum for such ROMs?
Sorry for the newbish questions.
Search more please. There's an entire thread dedicated to the tribamd model. Yes the regular Roms are compatible. But you will lose spark. Regular LTE will still work.

Yes I did saw the thread. What I didn't see right away if I was able to install AOSP ROMs and treat the phone pretty much as the same.
Thanks.
C-rom works with triband.
