Samsung galaxy 4 i9505 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does the Galaxy 4 i9505 have I.m.e.I no. just like T-Mobile and Att Gs4? Thanks for any information.

Are you asking if the international GS4 has an IMEI number like any other phone? If so, of course, I believe it is law that all phones have an IMEI number.

[q] help!!! Korean galaxy note e160l imei and rom problem

Hi, my girl friend bought a galaxy note from Korea last week.
We live in Turkey and in Turkey we have to register the imei number of the phone to the govenrment. But, there is no imei number in the phone. We tried *#06#, we went to the samsung service, but the phone does not have an imei number. Is it possible to write email to note?
I want to flash an international rom, but I do not know is it possible for E160L version of galaxy note? I could not find any information about this.
Does anybody have korean version of galaxy note? Could you change the rom?
Thanks
Dont want to sound offensive but did she really bought a real phone?? Bcoz never heard of a phone without Imei..apart from chinese fakes.
She is with me now. I am already using n7000 galaxy note. First she called me and told this situation. I did not believe her first. But, yesterday she brought her phone to me. Yes it is a real galaxy note SHV-E160L. I called samsung, they said that yes it is true but you have to contact Samsung Korea.
It is really interesting but yes the phone has no imei.
I solved the registration issue of imei number. I called the government office, and they said that because it has no imei there is no problem because we can not detect your phone.
Now I have to install an internation Rom. How can I install Europe or US Rom to Korean Galaxy note?

Galaxy S4 International Version - Att LTE??

I have the chance to purchase/trade a galaxy S4 new still in the box. I'm on Att and my only concern is that LTE does not work on the international version..Am I correct? Thank you
Yes you can use LTE with International S4 with AT&T (use only stock roms) look for Unlock S4 and AWS...

International phone or ROM? Theres a difference.
i9500 or i9505
Both are S4 "International" versions. One (i9500) has Samsung's "Octa-Core" processor while the other (i9505) has the Snapdragon 600 quad core. The thing is, I don't believe the i9500 Octa core has LTE unless you get the Korean version.
If it's the i9505 version, there are some how-to's on here that might allow you to enable the ATT LTE bands.

The GT-I9505 with the snapdragon processor is THE same hardware of the AT&T phone. The GT-I9500 is the exynos octo-processor but as far as I know may/may not get the frequencies needed to run AT&T 3G and does not have LTE. I am not 100% sure but I ran into issues like this purchasing my S3 GT-I9300. At that time I bought the Gt-i9305 which had LTE but it would not get AT&T frequencies for 3G, so I sold it and got the 9300 that worked with AT&T but had no LTE.
"The S4 has two major variants, one featuring a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 and the other featuring an Samsung Exynos 5 Octa. The Exynos 5 Octa version features the first big.LITTLE architecture central processing unit (CPU) but does not have LTE connectivity."--from wiki

Thee gt-i9505 has the exact same hardware including LTE. next time maybe you should search a bit before passing off false info

No LTE on the octacore. why would you want one of those pieces of crap? ALOT of developers don't want anything to do with it. and the chip itself is apparently just a huge flaw. Just go over to the int'l forum and read about it, personally your wasting your money if you by the octacore

Noobie questions

Hello community, i am new here , i own a GT-i9505 galaxy s4 that i bought almost 1 year ago.
I was reading guides and tuts on how to flash my own custom rom and it seems pretty easy.
After a re-search i finally thought of flashing a clean CM.
But here's the main question.
Which one is the right one, and what are the differences between them?
Galaxy S4 (jflte)
Galaxy S4 (AT&T) (jflteatt)
Galaxy S4 (C Spire) (jfltecsp)
Galaxy S4 (Canada) (jfltecan)
Galaxy S4 (Cricket) (jfltecri)
Galaxy S4 (GSM Non-LTE) (ja3g)
Galaxy S4 (Intl) (jfltexx)
Galaxy S4 (non-LTE) (i9500)
Galaxy S4 (Sprint) (jfltespr)
Galaxy S4 (T-Mobile) (jfltetmo)
Galaxy S4 (US Cellular) (jflteusc)
Galaxy S4 (Verizon) (jfltevzw)
Galaxy S4 Active (Intl) (jactivelte)
Galaxy S4 LTE-A (ks01lte)
I'am from Greece and i am using Vodafone.
Any answer would be more than appreciated.
The main reason i am changing OS is battery life, i don't want any custom or awesome features.
GT-I9505 = jfltexx. This is the one you want.
GT-I9500 = ja3g. You have this one listed twice. This is the device using the Exynos processor and lacking LTE.
GT-I9506 = ks01lte. This is the "Black Edition" Galaxy S4. It has a faster processor than the I9505 but its other hardware is identical.
GT-I9295 = jactivelte. This has its own forum on XDA.
The other devices listed are North American devices. This means they use North American LTE frequencies, which will not be of use to you in Greece. The AT&T and Verizon models lock their bootloaders to prevent root. The Cricket, Verizon, and Sprint models use CDMA rather than GSM, so they wouldn't work at all in Greece. The Canada version is identical to the AT&T version, but without the locked bootloader. The T-Mobile version never received an upgrade to Android 5.0.1. AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Sprint Galaxy S4 devices all have their own forums on XDA.
There are many more models of S4 than in your list. At last count, there were some 50 different Galaxy S4 variants out there, but you don't need to worry about that. You now know which one you should use.
