I'd like to know this too. It seems odd to me there isn't a simple way of converting a normal S4 to a Google Edition version...
I would love to know some info about that too.
You can't convert s4 into a gpe this has been answered already. .... partitions are different and if you try to change s4 partition you'll Brick your phone... We know it's same hardware but just Google and you'll see why it can't be done ...
Only a custom rom will work. ..jamal2367
Has one working but it had some bugs still

I agree with @frnkly and you have the choices now :- Flash custom ROM or get a Google edition smartphone

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

So this is off limits even if I have the same phone?

This is not from broodrom and i wonder if it's safe to install it on my international gt-i9505, or will it brick?
And if I install it, will there be any different other than a new software? I mean, will I be able to flash all the roms that are flashable on the international one?

Probably best to wait, just in case. The i9505 and google edition could differ in partition layout so it may just fail or could brick. Im sure the devs will have an update ready soon.

So I've got 4.2 installed on my T-Mobile GS4.
It's been running great, no complaints.
I just received a notice that the system update to 4.3 has been downloaded and ready to install for Google Play Editions of the GS4 and I can reboot and install.
This is, I'm assuming, the pushed download to the Google Play phones. It caught me off guard, so I don't know if I should install it, cancel, or disable the auto-updates etc.
Whats the consensus on this?

seems like even though we don't have the GPE bootloaders, the device are able to be updated via OTA. We just don't know if it will flash correctly. gsmyth is correct, it's better safe than sorry
You're probably right.
Btw, is there any way to remove the system update notification from the notification bar?

there are some reports that some users of t mobile using google rom received and they successfully updated.
Hey Guys, Any idea where can I download the official Samsung ROMs from? I am not looking at the leaked Kitkat version of the S4; but a standard one which comes on built with the phone in the US. The deal is that, I am kinda bored with my Google Play clean software on the S4; I want to try to install the original software on the S4 (i9505G) and kinda try the gesture recognition apps etc. Any inputs?
Yeah Sammobile.com has all stock roms to be flashed with Odin.

Hi, I'm new here! Just rooted my phone a couple of weeks ago and installed a AOSP GS4 GPE 4.4.2 Kitkat by jamal2367! Everything is fine, the ROM is working perfectly but there is just one thing that I don't understand about it, this message that shows up when I boot my device! Can someone explain this to me? Thanks!

What does that mean? Sorry, I'm a newbie heheh and is there anyway to fix this? I really like the GPE version.. If this is not critical, I would just keep it the way it is

This isnt critical. Only is the message that u tripped the Knox changing the official kernel for one custom :highfive:
I see! And is there anyway to hide or take away that message? If I can't, I don't mind.. My phone is way better than before! Google Edition with Softkeys made my s4 the best one

I would like to run non-root OTA rom without touchwiz ... or at least run rom without root. I want to set my S4 intl to factory default without touchwiz crap.
Is this even possible?
Doh sorry didn't fully read title. But i think some of my ideas my help.
No such thing as ota official Samsung android without touch wiz.
The best your going to do I guess is use Google Play Edition rom and do full unroot.
The other thing is maybe use aosp rom and full unroot or cyanogenmod and full unroot.
Anyway there are a few ideas for you.

Did you look in the s4 "original" development forum? I see cm and aosp in there.
