[Q]I'm confused as to what roms I can flash. - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello xda
I haven't rooted yet but I'm looking up on what roms I may want to flash but I'm having a problem understanding what roms I can flash.
My phones hardware version says N900p
So I initially thought i could only flash n900 roms
But apon further investigating It seem n900 roms are for the exynos powered note 3.
I just ran cpu-z and it says I have the snapdragon cpu
Does that mean I'm able to flash n9005 roms?
(Btw I'm on sprint.)
Also just a side questions if anyone happens to know. Does sprint care if the Knox is tripped? I remember reading somewhere that they don't but I can find where I read that and I want to be sure.
Thanks to anyone that can help this confused noob.

[Q] Samsumg Galaxy S5 G900T1

I Have A Question I Wanted To Ask An Didnt Know Where To Post So I Made A New Thread
I Have A Samsung Galaxy S5 G900T1 And Wanted To Know If Tmobile's Lollipop Update Would Work On The G900T1 Seeing That Tmobile An MetroPCS Are The Same If I Downloaded The Offical Rom For The Update.....?
Yes, it will work. Those phones are almost identical.
But I don't know if that would advance the Knox counter ... Something to do a little research on

Has anyone tried this yet? If so what happened to the Knox counter? Last question and a n00b one at that, what will happen to the carrier logo when booting?

Please post in question and answer section. Post reported.
Am I right in saying your model is the verizon variant ? This thread might be interesting for you
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon/general/howto-converting-retail-note-4-to-t3358957
Plus there is a verizon forum
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4-verizon
Is this reply for me? If so THANK YOU atleast someone is nice around here. Im afraid to offend #Crimsonthunder they seem a bit touchy and already got me into trouble so I need to watch what I say LOL.
I already follow the Verzon forum ... I was hoping since I had snaldragon I could flash any and or all snapdragon ROMS ... seems that is not true. I have flashed a few others that were meant for SM-N910F phones and they worked.

Buying the SM-N910G, what should I expect?

Hi everyone;
I'm buying the N910G from a friend of mine and I've just noticed that this device specifically is not supported by any of the ROMS I've come across and liked so far. With the Note 2 it didn't really matter that much, I installed AT&T ROMS on my N7105 and they worked perfectly fine all the time. I don't know about the process here, do Snapdragon ROMS work on Exynos based phones? Do Exynos ROMS that don't support the N910G work on the N910G?
Worst case scenario with the Note 2 when I soft-bricked it I would just plug it into the PC and use Odin to flash the official ROM for my phone and it'll fix any issues, then I'd auto-root it, install recovery, and go back to doing what I was doing.
Anyway, if anyone can help me out here, that would be great. What ROMS can I actually install on it? What are the worrying things I should be avoiding? etc...

Are you crazy , n910g has a good development .
The most supported device is n910f , and n910f roms can be used on n910g .
Exynos roms are limited and you won't see any nougat rom on exynos devices , n910g is snapdragon, if you like roms from exynos development, trust me snapdragon roms are better , the snapdragon community is 20 times larger than exynos community .
Snapdragon Is open source.
Go search something on Google .
Infact the latest note 7 ported roms are made on n910g base .
N910g is best.
On top of that , The renowned issue of note 4 "emmc failure" , has been fixed for n910g .
There is a debrick.img made by me, which can recover your phone even if it is completely unresponsive.
This device is best . Dont even consider any other variant , if your purpose is to flash toms .
It is well supported.

+1 this reply.
I have n910p, and even use G and F roms with some fixes.
You can't go wrong with snapdragon. You can almost flash all the roms for snapdragon version. But you don't want to try to flash any exynos roms.
Damn! I have been roaming the Exynos section of the forum this whole time thinking it has an exynos chip as the guy I am buying from said it's exynos. And I was wondering how come it has no support and there is no roms for it. I am so glad it's the snapdragon edition. Thanks guys, I'll go check the snapdragon sub-section now!

Custom rom for note 3 sm-n9007

Hi all, I've just joined and have just finished rooting my Samsung galaxy note 3 sm-n9007. I've tried searching on the net for custom rom but they all seem to be for other variants of the note 3. Can someone point me in the right direction. I did notice the cm14 rom but that was for sm-n9005 so I'm assuming it won't be compatible. In case you can't tell I'm far from being a pro at this sort of thing but just wanted to try a different rom out as I'm sick of Android 5.0. Thanks in advance, Michael.
Hi there,
I will move your thread in the correct forum dedicated to Galaxy Note 3 Q&A for more relevant answers.
Good luck
You may have difficulty with that model .

Thanks, yeah it does seem like that. There's plenty for the n9005 but I'm assuming I can't use those rooms on my n9005?

Be sure to open up the ROM post on the forum and read the compatibility list. In most cases, they use N9005 as a base but it also might be compatible with other variants
For example I'm using an n7 port which only mentions compatibility with the N9005 (but it does not say EXCLUSIVE for the N9005) but as I kept reading on the same post, I learned that the N900T (my variant) is also supported to install
So please read the forum carefully and/or use the search function on that thread. You'd be surprised to know how many people have asked if their Note 3 variant is also supported
Hope this helps!

Installing Exynos based roms from other variants on N910U

First of all pardon me if this is a noob question or is already asked, I tried to search a lot but couldn't find it so decided to ask here.
Now I'm using a Note 4 N910U and there is very little development for it, it has exactly the same specs and hardware as N910C and N910H or any other Exynos variants so is it possible to install a rom that is made for C/H variants on U?
any help would be great.:good:
Thanks in advance.
Going my the Note4 modem list, looks like at least modem hardware is different
