Hello all,
I'm no stranger to the rooting procedure ( I've done it several times on different devices) but in this case I'm encoutering a large issue
When I put the S5 in download mode, I get a screen with 5 or 6 lines with chinese symbols... my chinese is as good as non-existing.
Could some one please help me with this?
If I'm not mistaking, my phone version is 900s ( If I want to update the phone, it's mentionned, not in the menu "about phone" ...
So if anyone could please tell me what to do, I would be very gratefull
Kind regards,
Beo

The G900S is Korean unless you have a Chinese clone.

Did you try towelroot? You don't need to go into download mode. Download run as app and follow the directions. It's that easy.

Download CPU-Z and run it. That will give you a system profile and tell you whose chipset is in your phone.
Root it using TowelRoot by geohot, it doesn't require download mode and it's a 1 button root.
http://towelroot.com/
press the symbol on the page to download it. you also need the newest supersu by chainfire & when it ask to disable knox press ok or yes.
I'm getting this too with my 900f, if anyone knows whats going on, that would be helpful.
edit: it might be the 900s as well, my about says 900s while the back of my pone says 900f

Read here about the Samsung region lock http://bgr.com/2014/04/11/samsung-galaxy-s5-region-locking/ as you have a US device and want to use it in the EU. Many more sites available. You could also call Samsung for advice and/or maybe removal of the lock. I hope the device isn`t simlocked too for your sake.

It would be rather difficult to give you a solution without any information. You didn't even tell us the verbatim error message, the carrier you are trying to use the phone on or much else.
It could be any number of things from region locked to SIM locked to an innoculous Sprint setup message. Or something completely different i.e. that a CDMA Sprint phone over has limited compatibility with GSM frequency bands. You simply didn't provide enough information to more than guess.

Read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2692269 and more to find on Google, afaik Sprint devices have a locked bootloader so i don`t know if flashing custom software is even possible.

It's technically not possible, but if you want "device software n9005 mod for n900l" possible with some custom roms, but not recommend install "Custom ROM". Custom ROM's trips "KNOX flag" and it can't return to back (0x0).
thx for your replay i found this rom in youtube i don't know if its real or not can you see it please and tell me

Hi everyone
I'm a newbie and unfortunately made some mistakes and messed up my Vodafone smart tab iii 7 (Lenovo a3000) . First mistake i formatted whole flash with no backups. I flashed the rom a3000 w call fuse from this forum. Now it boots but gives me screen to select county. Bunch of red boxes. I selected each one but it just says "TIMED OUT" and reboots. I suppose its to do with imei but MTK droid tools can not set my imei and also does not read the baseband version. Any help or suggestions please. I'm out of options.
you must flash "fac" file to fix it
