I recently upgraded to Android 4.4.4 and lost root that I had with Android 4.2.2, and I tried rooting my phone using Towelroot, but when I hit the "Make it Rain" button it tells me "This phone isn't currently supported." So is their a way to root a T-Mobile S4 running Android 4.4.4 that doesn't change the Device Status from Official?

You can update then unlock.the phone with the same method found in the general thread (if you don't know where it is at, search for it yourself).

HELP PLEASE!!!
A friend of mine bought a used Samsung Galaxy S4. She called me saying to look at her phone because it's acting strange (random reboots, camera crashing). Upon looking at the phone, I saw that it was running Cyanogenmod. She'd like the "normal" samsung rom instead, as she is a previous Galaxy S2 owner.
I checked the "About this phone" information, and this is what I found:
Model number: GT-9505G
Android version: 5.0.1.
Smallband version: I9505XXUGNG8
Kernel version: 3.4.0.-2809293 [email protected]#1
Build number: LRX22C
So I thought this would be a Galaxy S4 GPE. I downloaded the I9505GUEEDNL3_FULL and tried flashing it with ODIN. It kept giving me errors.
I started doubting what model this was. After checking behind the battery, this the information I found:
Model: GT I9505
SSN: -9505 GSMH
S/N: RF1D47XA37R
So, what model is this? The I9505 or the I9505G, and what would be the best method to flash a stock firmware/rom on this, and which one would I need?
Edit; after doing some searching, I think i've found what rom is currently running on the phone:

Boot into download mode. There you can find your model.
It's probably a GT-I9505 running a GPE rom. The GPE rom sets the device code to GT-I9505G. And that's how apps will see it. That's also why it shows GT-I9505G in "About" menu.
Hi,
Bought a Galaxy S5 which I'm struggling to update (preferably to a unrooted, stock UK ROM)
baseband: g900TUVU1ANCH
Model number: SM-G900F
Android version: 4.4.2
Build no: DONGCHAO.607
From the Samsung phone info app:
Bootloader:G900TUVU1ANCH
PDA VERSION:
G900W8VLU1AND1
CSC VERSION:
G900W8OYA1AND1
Latest Firmware:
Not found
Root existance:
Yes
Build no.
KOT49H.G900W8VLU1AND1 (Why is this different?)
I could be wrong but from the numbers above I think it's using a Chinese ROM which may be preventing me putting a UK ROM on there.
The model number in Android and the Samsung Phone Info app is reported as a SM-G900F, but when I restart the phone in download mode it's reported as a SM-900T.
Can anyone explain which ROM I should be using and how I get 5.0>?
thanks!
