Whats the Difference between i9500 Original and none Original i9500. I don't understand why the two threads ..Are the Unbranded I9500 originals and the branded I9500 the none originals ?
Same device different type of development
Original - exactly what it sounds like - I.e it is an original work of some developer and was created from scratch ( CM Roms, recovery, kernels, etc. )
The Android Development thread is mainly for the Samsung based roms
Sent from my GT-I9500 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Im sure a new thread was not needed for this.
=================================
Moderator Edit - Can this be moved to the correct forum, I have no idea why it moved here, my mistake
Probably can be closed too
Thank you

Created for newbies, flashaholic's and developers, this poll is meant to reveal the most popular and flashed roms for Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505. I think we all know the few most popular ones, but let's find out which one is whose favorite. Please feel free to comment down below your favorite ROM and WHY?
The main reason i made this poll was that it was available for several other devices but didn't find it for international version of S4. Also, I think it will help in the decision making which ROM to flash for those of us who haven't flashed before or only few times and who doesn't want to test all the roms out there.

One is for users of roms based on the original factory shipped software and one is for custom roms.
Or something like that.
The stickies in both sections answer your question very clearly. You might want to check them out.
Galaxy S4 i9500 Android Development contains mostly Touchwiz based Roms/kernels.
Galay S4 i9500 Original Android Development contains AOSP based custom Roms/kernels

I actually asked same question as you do about year ago or so ,
and now I'm telling you what i have been told:
1. original forum is where people post THEIR own work, most likely kernel and AOSP ROMs
2. and Android Development, is about modification of OTHER'S work , like rework of existing ROMs/Kernels and so on....
Hello! What is the difference between i9505 Development and i9505 Original Development?
Very little. New devices don't even have this setup, but a single development section. Original development was intended for projects created from scratch, while development was for modified stock ROMs and ROMs built from existing sources.

Hi sir my samsung mobile sim network code send me sir plz help me sir my mobile IMEI number -Mod Edit imei removed
Hello, I have a Galaxy S4 and I am considering installing LineageOs on it.
It would be the first time I root my phone but I'm very interested to learn about all this
It's model is GT-I9505, but I only seem to be able to find a LineageOs version for the GT-I9506 now I was wondering, can't I just install the LineageOs build for GT-I9506 on my device?
If not, why? And what's the difference between the two different S4 models?
I hope I put this in the right place...
Thanks in advance!
Different hardware.
If you install it, then your phone will become a plastic brick, unable to boot and, thus, useless.
Do you want that? I don't think so.
I don't know where you looked for ROMs, but this forum contains several LineageOS and LineageOS based ROMs for the GT-I9505. There are two development sections for the GT-I9505, how about looking at them?

Why give a link to an unofficial portal that can't even get the supported phone models correct?
There is no need to link off-site, XDA has everything you need as @Pwnycorn suggests.
2 * basic ports:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...-cyanogenmod-14-1-to-galaxy-s4-i9505-t3520456
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-orig-develop/rom-lineageos-nightly-builds-t3530822
Optimised port:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...p/jdcteam-optimized-cyanogenmod-14-0-t3479888
The OP asked for a link and didn't specify an XDA link. I see the basic port links are for unofficial ROMs. Does a link that is not on XDA make it any less stable or usable?

The site you linked suggests that the ROM works on all S4 models (I9500, I9505, I9506), which is obviously wrong.
Now, maybe at some point in that tutorial it links to specific zips for each model and maybe I didn't see it? I don't know, may be. I failed to see it.
I thought the builds for the s4 Qualcomm versions (9505, 337m, etc.) were unified at some point and are collectively referred to as the jfltexx. The links take me to androidfilehost with files for the jfltexx.
I agree that the 9500 should not be included, but the 9505 and 337m are included.
As a test, I flashed TWRP for the 9505 to my i337m and downloaded the latest ROM from the site I linked. I flashed both to the i337m and it works.
Some people may feel more comfortable limiting themselves to XDA links and forums but I am fine with non-XDA links and non-XDA developer forums too.
I'm not looking to start any sort of debate; I was simply trying to provide the OP with some information and easy-to-follow instructions.
Forgive me, I'm not sure is there some ROM Bible for the Samsung Note 4 (Snapdragon) going over what ROMs are avail , what features and what supported functionality (aside from factory image) they offer (perhaps some side by side comparison of some sort)?
Was unable to see anything like this, know other devices had more documentation regarding rooting tool-kits and ROM functionality... just though id ask - my apologies if this isnt the proper place to ask such questions.
I don`t Know what You`re Looking for! All important Infos to the Snapdragon Variants Are Their!
See this Thread, and Read the OP and Posts: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/snapdragon-dev/oreo-8-1-0-unofficial-lineage-15-1-rom-t3760969
Sorry, but All what You asking is Written Down their Many Many Times again and again!
Hope You will Found Your Answers!
