[Q] Whats between phone models? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the difference between the Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900M vs Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F? Im curious as to what makes these devices so different that one rom can't run on both of the devices. On the HTC One forums once you have a GSM based HTC One (Not dual sim) you can pretty much load any of the ROMs on your phone.(Tmobile,A&T,International) but here samsung has so many difference types.

I think you can install 900F ROMs on 900M .. you might just have some problems with phone funtionality but since 900F has GSM, it should work on 900M ..
You can always try by your self as long as you have a nandroid backup

Suport for Galaxy S4 i9515L

Hello!
As you know samsung currently at least here in America
Samsung sells only the S4 in i9515L version currently containing the same hardware version i9500 differences in kernel and network frequencies.
to try to install a custom rom from the i9500 when I finish the touch does not work just that and the networks do not work, recovery and root function normally using the versions of the i9500.
and seeking out internet have no Custom ROM for our beloved i9515l
Me and the users of i9515l would like to ask our support device that should receive 1 or 2 updates the hands of Samsung and then forgotten.
Sorry my bad Inglish.
Indeed, my girlfriend has one of these and I also searched with no success for ROMs and Kernels.
Since it is a "new" model, the attention and support still very low/poor, lets hope that some dev port the i9500 ROMs and Kernels to it.

[Q] Using Galaxy S5 G900F ROMs into G900FD Models

Hi,
I am planning to buy S5. I am more concerned about the support in XDA forum for my phone.Without doubt G900F has the maximum support in here. However, I found a Dual SIM version model for GM900F (which is GM900FD).
I wanted to know can I use all of the support provided here for S5 GM900F can also be re-used in 500FD too? (Including ROMs which are modified to work for F model)
I thought keeping the dual sim radio intact with no change in it whereas just changing the ROM would not create problem.
Please correct me if i am wrong?

Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime G530T Custom Rom?

I see custom roms for different model numbers of this phone.. Would these roms also work for my metro g530T?
Anyone?
I'm pretty sure the metro version is G530T1 right? Because I have the t-mobile variant which is G530T
Damn, it actually is, all of that aside though. Too many key differences for this device to use said existing roms?
samsung galaxy grand prime
im looking for roms for my device that will work for this what do your have for the samsung-SM-G530A

Need Help on custom roms

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Metro Pcs (sm-g900t1) and i cant seem to find any custom roms that support this model , i heard from somewhere on this site that i can use the Tmobile custom roms (sm-g900t) since my phone is just rebranded , well i wanted to know if that was true. can i just do that ? or do i need to flash the firmware and change it to sm-g900t ? any help will be thankful.
As long as g900t1 and g900t have the same hardware internally, you should be good with using g900t ROMs

Custom ROMS for Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910S, Korean Variant)

Hello,
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and although I definitely should've checked the model number I did not. My mistake. But I've come to realize that the phone is a Korean variant and as such I can't modify it and put custom ROMs on it - if you can, I'm not sure how.
I'm a novice on smartphones and putting custom ROMs on them, I've done it before on a Note 3 that I owned (Canadian variant).
Since there aren't any custom ROMs (that I can find) for the Korean variant... Is it possible I can somehow convert the phone to an international variant or perhaps force the process?
Thanks in advance.

Try this ROM...

I have an n910s too...
Tried almost all ROMS and this is the best one.
Good luck.
If you find a way to convert to international version please let me know how to.
Thanks.
Thank for the input but I'm going to be returning the phone and getting an international or Canadian variant, as I would like to use LineageOS on it or something similar. I don't want any ROMs that look or feel like TouchWiz.
