Hi guys,
I apologise if this post is in the wrong section but i hope it is not. This is the first time i am actually holding an Android phone in my hands. I was an Apple fan until Steve job's passed away, he practically took the brand down with him. So I am looking into Rooting my Samsung S4. I have been reading up on it alot now but i still need some guidance.
The specs of it are this:
International unbranded Samsung S4
Model number - GT-I9505
Baseband version - I9505DVUAMD8
Build number - I9505XXUAMDE

Hello, my name is Henry. I had just recently came into a Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-I9500. The person who had it before me thought they would be smart and put a custom rom and all on it. Well, somewhere along the line, he ended up putting some Chinese crap on it, and it's starting to give me problems with carrier connectivity and whatnot. I would like to know if there was an "easy" way or "step-by-step" tutorial to get it back on the stock unlocked firmware and rom. Any and all help would be so greatly appreciated.

Hello XDA forum members,
I have searched these forums for the last few days so hopefully I am not wasting anyone's time and this question has not been asked. Is there a way to put CM on the S4 variant below? I have attempted to use CM installer with no success because the device is not supported. I was going to attempt to side load the rom to the phone, but had second thoughts after reading the warning on CM's wiki. I was also unsure which variant to use. I know that the phone is GSM, and that it runs on the AT&T network via straight talk, but beyond that I don't think that the phones software is the same as the actual At&T variant. I would love to have CM on my phone, but I would like to be sure that it will not brick my phone unnecessarily. If anyone knows of any information regarding the installation of CM on this phone, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,

Hi rhino....any luck with this? I just picked up the phone as well.
Hey guys I looked under my battery and on the box and even in the phone it says the model number is SGH-M919 so I am unsure what model the phone is. If it is a i9500, i9505, i9505G or a i9506. Can someone help me so i can figure out what rom to use on the phone. since the 4.4 kitkat update my Tmobile S4 battery life has gone to poo. Any help would be greatful please.

Hello! Pretty new in XDA forum and I have a couple of questions and concerns. I was browsing through some threads and I was wondering if I could get some opinion/help from other members.
I have a second phone that I want to mod and I need some help.
Device: Samsung Galaxy S4 (ROOTED)
Model#: SGH-M919
Android Version: 4.4.4
Baseband: M919UVUFNK2
It's an old phone and lately, it's been running really slow and if possible, I'd like to make it run as if it was brand new or at least somewhat close. So the question is, are there any recommended stable roms/mods I could use and if there are/is, will I be able to use it with my rooted phone or do I have to completely factory reset it before I apply the mods/roms?
Thank you!
