So, I was thinking I can use international ROMs on my US Verizon S5, but I just wanted to check and make sure. I just got mine today and rooted it, but have been unsure if I can use International ROMs or which I should use. All the ROMs I have seen are not marked compatible for 900V just 900F for the most part. Some advice would be much appreciated
You should be able to use international ROMs.

Hi,
I'm looking purchase and root the GN3 N9005 International Version (I'm in the Caribbean) and I would like to know if there was an option where I could have multiple Roms installed and I choose whichever one I wanted at any point in time. I see that there is safestrap but based on what I read it seem that its only on variant models(Verizon, T-Mobile and AT&T) would SafeStrap allow me to do this?
Please advise.
Thanks
Which GSM GS5 variant is the best to buy (Unlocked on amazon, etc.) for ease of root/custom roms? Why?
I want to buy a new unlocked device online and can't seem to find a decent guide on the differences between the varoius models of the S5.
Thanks in advance!

get the G-900F support almost all custom roms
G900F is the global variant so yeah... I also recommend getting that variant.
I have the w8. It is good very easy to root. It seems to be able to use a lot of roms except none of the ones for the h model. The bad thing is not being able to get 32gb version imo
Dont buy g900h. It does not have any AOSP custom roms or even a proper custom rom except deodexed roms.
Xposed for lollipop doesnt work well with stock samsung touchwiz hence even a rooted g900h wont be able to take advantage of it.
Hi people,
Can i flash international rom on a Verizon galaxy S5?
If yes, how can it be done?
Thanks!
To install international G900F rom, must be bootloader unlocked:
Same way as flashing a normal kltevzw/G900V rom, find a klte/G900F rom and flash it. Any incompatibility warnings are probably outdated, but be careful, and remember, you can't make too many backups.
Just know that you won't be able to use CDMA networks (Verizon is CDMA).
To enable 4G/Phone service in other countries, works with locked bootloader:
You're stuck with the G900V rom. If you're just looking to get support for extra bands in other countries, look into GalaxyTools by Idoneapps. It can give you international support on most existing roms, stock or not. Kinda hard to use but you'll get used to it.
Both methods will most likely require some APN settings modifications.
If your cat suddenly gets eaten or you need clarification, I'd be glad to help.
(You weren't too clear on your request - I didn't know if you wanted an international rom or international support, so I tried to include both.)
I have G900V model but I do not have verizon services in my country. I wanted to get rid of verizon rom as it's of no use to me. Therefore I was looking for a intrenational varient. I am running MM6.0.1 with rooted and bootloader unlocked. Will flashing a G900F rom again lock the bootloader.
How to proceed withave the process. Please help.

Can anybody help me root my 900f Verizon s5?
So I have the Tmobile S7E, and from what I gather all we have is a engineer kernel that allows a Jacky version of root that come with a lot of problems.
With this tho it seem we are able to flash different Roms. With the tmobile sub not very active and having virtually no Roms, my question is, can we use say Verizon or ATT Roms on the tmobile variant? All I would have to do is change APN settings and flash the correct radio?
I've been out of the game for a few years with an iPhone and want to make sure what I can and can't do before bricking my device.
Any guidance will be appreciated, thanks!
Looking to pick up a GS5 and put on Nougat via LineageOS. Is there a certain carrier's phone that is more desirable than others? Since I do not already have the phone I would like to acquire the best one to get to my ultimate goal of unlocking and putting on Android 7. Phone will eventually be used on the AT&T network.
Thanks in advance,
Bob
Try and see if the international G900F works on AT&T, or simply get the G900T, to not go through the hassle which involves an international version.
If you like using custom roms and such STAY AWAY FROM AT&T!!! Bc they lock there bootloader's haha
AT&T Galaxy S5 has Locked Bootloader, which means you can't flash custom ROMs. Sprint variant has different hardware for CDMA support, so some ROM may be incompatible. If you can invest on G900F (International Version), G900F is the most ideal one for custom ROMs (Or G900W8, which is Canadian version) Otherwise, you would want to get G900T since it has unlocked bootloader.
