Hey guys!
I am in a fix here. I have finally decided to go for Galaxy S5 but I am unable to choose between the two available SD devices i.e. SM- G900F (European) & SM-G900S (Korean). I see most of the developments happening in 900F at the moment but i am getting a better deal on 900S.
I don't want to end up buying a device where I am unable to flash custom ROMs as I am kinda used to be updated now Thanks to XDA for that!! Someone claims to have already made an enabler for korean versions which would allow us to install any SD ROM on the korean version just by flashing a zip.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2789848 .So please suggest which one should I go for as i need to book the device ASAP.
F is the obvious choice is development is what you care about. I doubt there will be much here for the S but if that zip works then maybe it's not an issue. Personally though I think the F is a no brainer

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
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31414984
5113 roms can be flashed to a 5110

Hi, I'm new to flashing ROM's and really don't want to damage this phone.
It's a Samsung Galaxy S4 GT i9500. Is this specific enough? I've heard there are international and non-international versions.
I found this ROM which got good reviews here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/?nocache=1&z=1058009516407261#romList
but I'm not 100% sure it's compatible.
Could someone tell me how I can be 100% sure?
Secondly, some basic instructions on how to restore the phone using Linux (Kubuntu 13.10 to be specific) would be great. This can be done through the USB port on both devices, right?
Thanks
You need to try custom roms by yourself and only you can know which rom suites you. ?

Hi Awesome ppl of xda. I'm from Australia and looking at getting note 4, when looking on Samsung's Au site the model number is sm-910G which has the same network bands as the sm-910f. I would like to root n use custom roms to fix the sd card. Iv looked in the SnapDragon development forum as see that sm-910f has few roms already. So want to know would I be able to flash a sm-910f Rom on a sm-910g device. I'm new to Samsung but been using adb and fastboot from HTC desire, HTC one x to One Plus one. So not a total nOOb. Cheers guys.

-F- ROM is for the 910F, -G- ROM for the 910G
So NO: you can't flash -F- ROM on a -G- model! Logical...

Stick to G mate. Or get N910U exynos model. It's fine for Australia. I'm rocking it right now
cheers guys, I'll just get the sm-910U due to being a lot easer to get online and roms are starting to come out for it.
hello sorry if its been asked, but is it possible to cross flash S6 edge+? I have the canadian G928W8, and would love to change it to the unbranded international version. If anyone know a trick it would be great. thanks Pigbait.

Hello. Why do u wanna change it sir?
I've got a bunch of carrier loaded bloate, and I don't want to do the crappy disabled app work around, also would be nice to get the OTA updates from Samsung and not need to wait 2years for my carrier to approve the update
Root your phone if you haven't yet. Go to this website. Find the correct firmware and version for your device. Download and flash it. You should be good to go then
Yeah. I have G928C but im using note 5 roms and kernel on it. Its up to your handiness.
I am currently using the galaxy s5 neo and when I look for stuff about my specific device model I can only find SM-G903F (USA) or SM-G903M (EUROPE), when mine is SM-G903W (CANADA). When I rooted my device using chainfire I used the root method for the USA version and it worked fine. So why first question would be, when looking for roms, mods, etc.. is it okay for me to always use the USA versions? Are the devices so similar that it doesn't matter? Or does it matter app to app?
Second, what is a safe way to install exposed on my device? I tried flashing ithe but soft bricked my device so I think I'm doing something wrong? Anyone have a detailed explanation?
Thank you in advance for any help:good:

I have the Same issue/Question. I have a SM-G903W which I've managed to root and install twrp on, and it's running 6.0.1. I'm looking for some custom roms so I can finally get off stock, but I am seeing very little discussion around the SM-G903W variant.
Does anyone know if the US versions of the roms will work?
