So my friend would like to install a custom ROM for his S5, model name SMG900W8. Which ROMs work? I don't have a S5 at all so I have no clue which works and which doesn't.
Check the development sections and have at err. Almost all of them should work for you. I'm running PAC-ROM on my 900w8

Hello,
I am having trouble finding a custom ROM for my Cricket galaxy S4. Model is SGH-I337Z, codename 'jflteaio'. I have TWRP 2.7 recovery installed along with Touch-wiz ROM, Skyfall. But I would really like to have at least one custom ROM for this device. I have looked through the unified section, as well as the AT&T section with no luck for 'jflteaio'. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thank you all
Dan
I don't know if there are roms specific for that device.
The rom you mention is for a i337 right? Then maybe all the roms from that device work. Just flash them and see if they boot.
If not then you probably need to port them yourself, there are plenty of guides out here that explain how to do that.
Hello guys i have the Canadian Note 3 N900W8 and i want to install a 5.1.1 pure android rom not on beta like Exodus, Resurrection Remix or CM but everything i download or see on the site is for other models not for this one. Can someone point me out in the right direction or if there is none can someone verify it?

I'm using [ROM][CM12.1][5.1.1_r24] Temasek's UNOFFICIAL Build v18.3 ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/development/hlte-spr-vzw-temaseks-unofficial-t2953375
and I have SM-N900W8 from Rogers, the rom works great, and phone functions good, never been been more happier. Not sure if this is what you were looking for since you mentioned something about CM, and I couldn't find anything that says pure android sorry.
I read somewhere that i9505 roms work on the SGH-M919.... can anyone confirm this for me. if yes, can I have my pick of the litter of i9505 roms?
thanks.
AOSP or Cyanogenmod ROMs should work fine with the M919. Touchwiz ROMs will not work due to T-Mobile not providing an Android 5.x ROM for their Galaxy S4. The T-Mobile baseband doesn't work properly with the Android 5.x Touchwiz ROMs. The version 5.0.1 Google Play Edition ROM should also work fine on the M919, though the 5.1 version won't work due to the same baseband issue affecting the Touchwiz ROMs.

Thanks for the info - I've downloaded many I9505 ROMs for my M919 and they didn't work even though other members to!d me they would.
the Albe s6 port rom is TW 5.1.1 based and it will work for the m919 only if you use v3.5
I see a lot of G900F ROMs like Phoenix, and a lot of kernels that say G900F but some, like Ressurection or CM or AICP say they work on all variants. How does that work? Clearly it needs to be the same processor like Qualcomm for ROMs or kernels to be portable to more than one variant, but most are listed as G900F only.
Do the ROMSs that are variant specific over-write bootloader, modem and kernel files with their own files that will only work on THAT variant? Do the ones that say they work on ANY variant omit the bootloader, modem and kernel files and leave the original stock files intact?
Same question with kernels. I have a G900W8, I can't find ANY customer kernels that are made for it, flashed one posted as a 900F kernel (Phoenix) but it's working great for me.
Can anyone give me a primer?
Hello,
I just broke my G900F and would like to replace it. I want a new S5 with cyanogene on it and I want it to be compatible with my other G900F Battery.
I looked at the most recent S5 versions but I am not sure if cyanogene will works on them. The cyanogene website is not really clear about this info.
Do you guys know?
Do you know if the S5 Plus (newer processor) will be ok with the "stock" cyanogene?
And what about the G906S and G906?
Thanks for your help
Official CM works only with Snapdragon 801 G900* variants (of course except H).
yep, most Cyanogenmod ROMs will work on most US S5 variants. If youre looking for opinions, Resurrection Remix is hard to go wrong with, but if you want to play the field, just look for KLTESPR builds
