Hi everyone,
I recently bought S4 SC-04 model made for Japanese market and I'm having a lot of difficulties finding good ROMS.
Why is so hard to find development for this rather usual S4?
Thanks
Because not anybody able to buy this model,, its for the Japanese market you said it by your self

It is exactly the same device as i9505 with 32gb on board and slightly different camera driver, this is not a big deal stuff to change. I would pay for the latest 4.4.2 CM11 which is stable and working for this device.
Unfortunately the support for CM on S4 not too much

Hi All,
I've a question as the title. I'm new to the tablet family, but I've experience on my galaxy note & SIII.
I recently got my hand on the GT-P5113, since I would like to change the language or regional setting (Chinese- Hong Kong)
Is it compatable for me to flash other P5110 stock rom to the P5113 via Odin?
Will is cause problems or even brick it?
many thanks!!
IR blaster and lack of vibration in the 3. Would of thought roms were interchangeable between the two

As far as I remember reading when I bought this was that ROMs are actually specific to each device.
Thank you for the replies.
I want to find out if anyone has tried flashing different region rom.
I don't mind losing the IR function, but other than this, will it cause major issue and most importantly will it brick!!
I want to keep it simple no root, stock rom is fine, as the Tab is for my uncle to use.
Any input and reassurance is much appreciated!!
If I go ahead and try, any problem, I can always flash back the original Rom, Right??
One more thing, Does both the 5110 & 5113 use the same CPU.
I know for a fact that the US Galaxy Note & International Note uses different CPU. That's why they are so incompatible.
According to this post

5113 roms can be flashed to a 5110

I9505 will be leading even then my friend I doubt that Samsung will ever release complete req codes which makes work tuff for dev

If you want to have the choice of anything other than modified stock roms then you are better off with the Snapdragon mate.
Being the basis for the Google edition should mean aosp development is mighty fine.

Your better of with a i9505 for custom roms.
I9505 all the way.
hey,
so i finally decided to get a s4 and happily walked into the GT-i9506 which matched my needs in terms of newest hardware and just being the s4. my question now is:
how can i use custom roms etc., as i couldn't find any useful words about this model.
i know dev support isn't or will not be as good as for the 9505, but is there at least something?
thanks in advance.

Where did you get this from? Which country?
Hi everybody! I want to change my phone but my operator propose just the galaxy GT 9506. I read on the galaxy s4 thread that it's difficulte to root this and they are no many rom for this version. My question: can i root the galaxy s4 gt 9506 and put a firmwear from galaxy s4 gt 9505. Thank's for read my thread and to give me an answer.:silly:
Yes you can root.
No, you can't put 9505 ROM into it.
But I suspect, some mod from 9505 or 9500 may work on 9506 (same Android version should have greater chance, as we occasionally using note3 mod on our s4, it probably works as long as don't go too deep into system, like kernel things, what I am talking about is more like theme or something ) and the xposed module may work as well.
If you don't wanna AOSP ROM.
Xposed module should fit you.
I've had 9506 and return back to exchange 9505 and now I found I could get what I want on stock firmware with xposed so I'm little bit of regret actually

Most xposed mods work with S4 I9506.

Thank you for the accuracy of your answer. I hesitated between LG g2 and galaxy S4. My preference goes to the S4 because I already had a S2, S3 therefore the logical consequence was the S4. But the proposed operator by my 9506 model slows a little. Your answer made me decide to order S4 and hopefully not regret my choice. thank you

But beside the lack of AOSP ROM (someone is working on porting CM11) and 3rd part kernel, i9506 really outrun the i9505, specially the GPU part...
But anyway, it's kinda over-performance... as we usually don't need that kinda performance, even for Snapdragon 600.
I think, most ROM part of customization can be achieved by Xposed modules, good luck!
I did not need a lot of customization but I just wish rooter my phone and put a samsung official firmwear to delete all apps from my operator. The choice of S4 is really out of loyalty and passion for samsung. I do not really need the full power of the snapdragon 800, 4G as starts in France and yet I did not receive. So your information is extremely useful to me because I know I just choose the S4 9506, the rooter and remove apps operators. thank you
Looking desparately for a Samsung S4 I9500 Lollipop (5.0.X) Stock ROM TouchWiz screenshots of:
1. Phone application while in call.
2. While in call and keypad open.
I tried almost everything but no Luck! And I just got to put my hand on ASAP...
Any idea how to get such screenshots before february??
Thanks!
It looks exactly the same as other 5.0 tw phones like S5
Check out the previews/reviews on youtube. There were a couple.
You might also take a look at the s5 versions since they will be similar.
Sound like a good direction, but what makes you so sure the exact UI is the same on both S4 & S5 ?
Now, I found on XDA forums the rom:
[GT-I9500ZCUJOA3]AP3900764-QB3709712_CP1859016-QB3536216 by RBS
Which is I9500, lollipop, and seem to be stock rom. Yet I am not sure it has english in it and that I would be able later to use my phone... Kinda risky!
And I think many people would gain from more S4 Lollipop screenshots being published, as soon as possible... So, if you got one

Video comparison between kitkat s4 and lollipop s4
A second video comparing kitkat and lollipop
Those videos are older and the look might have changed. But it might give you an idea.
And I suggested that the UI is the same on both, s4 and s5, because, from what I saw, the samsung lollipop on s4 looks a lot like the UI of the kitkat s5.
Also, I wouldn't recommend installing the leaked version as I saw several threads where people reported losing their IMEI number and other problems. Either go custom or wait for an official samsung update.
can not find lollipop rom for s4
