Seeking help for identifying suitable ROM for my S4 I9500 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have purchased S4 I9500 from a local shop. I am not sure about the country of origin of the Phone. There is SU app available in phone which means the phone is rooted. Please have a look at the attached screenshots and advise me about the phone. Is it on some custom ROM? I want to install S5 kind of ROM on it. Where I can find suitable ROM for my phone.

Ozcan rom v5.2
Or
Hassan rom
But first remember this before flashing..the firmware version of your phone and of the rom which you are flashing should match.
Like you have OLBFNB4, first upgrade to XXUFNH4 then flash ozcan.
You can find in the i9500 developement thread. (Not the i9500 original developement thread)

Can't tell you exactly but it depends on custom rom.
The safe approach is getting to know the correct info about your device (using 'Phone INFO ★Samsung★' app), and then search for a right rom or you can ask in the developer's thread if it is compatible for your device.

Easy.
1) Where did you download your rom?
2) At what thread?
3) Does it mention for your phone model ex N9005 or others?
4) At the thread you downloaded the rom again, there are search button and use it to find either it can be use on your phone or not.

Decide for yourself what is the best. On XDA every developers does his best to give it all.
There is no such thing as best, just see the ROM related threads to check which rom has the least bugs reported and flash it if you may.
Again THERE IS NO SUCH THING AND BEST HERE.
You yourself have to find it out.

Need help in installing indian rom on sph-l720

Hello sir,
i got the same modified device of galaxy s4 (sph-l720 converted into i9500)
i also read almost all the posts that fall in this category. But i'm no more concerned about that change but all i need help is about to flash that firmware again in my phone.
Actually what i did, i got the phone pre-rooted then i removed some of the bloatwares from the system and also some of the system files too.
Then i come to know that it is not properly working. It got more serieous issues over the time. The i flashed my phone with sph-l720 firmware but it does not let me change network modes between gsm and wcdma. While i can change those networks in i9500 rom.
So i want to know that can i flash i9500 rom on my sph-l720 again "anyhow"!!
If possible send me links or tutorial so that i can flash rom on my phone. Also i am also eager to use lollipop rom (of i9500) on my phone. My phone is now almost unusable.
Give me the straight and forward solution and i am also aware about hardwares of both the devies.
Is there anything that you can help. I will really appreciate that.
I am the follower of xda since 2012.
If anyone could backup their current rom of kitkat (i.e. Modified rom on sph-l720) using twrp recovery and share it with my google drive or onedrive, so i can restore that on phone that it can be usable again. I would be very thankful to them.
Install Phone Info *Samsung* and send the details of it.

Samsung s4 GT-19507

Hey guys I was given this phone and it's full of bloatware I can't uninstall (running android 5.0.1). I noticed the model number of this specific type of s4 was only released in australia with optus/virgin? I have read other parts of the forum trying to find out if it is safe to put a custom rom on the phone, but all links are dead to files needed. Can anyone out there point me to a custom rom not full of bloatware that will work on this model phone? Also I have read there will be problem with the modem aswell if I do flash a custom rom on it.

Are we talking about TouchWiz custom ROMs or normal custom ROMs?
I don't know if TouchWiz custom ROMs will work, but this should work on your model.
