Just after some advice please guys. I just bought an s4 ( in australia ). 1.9 processor and the usuall other stuff but this s4 is the arctic blue model with 16gb internal storage.
I can't find enough consistant information about this model on the forums. I couldn't even find the corresponding firmware for the phone on samsung website so i checked if there was an update for the phone....there was and i downloaded. The below are the new details for the phone. All i want to do is root the phone and remove as much bloatware as possible without downloading any roms or any boot animations etc etc.
1) Where can i get the corresponding samsung firmware?
2) What's the safest root method for this device?
Model number GT-19505
Baseband version 19505XXUEMK9

Hello guys...
I am waiting for the Lollipop update on my galaxy S5 for months now and till date nothing has happened. Above all there's only about 10 variants of the SM-G900F which are actually in this situation actually out of 100s. I decided to flash it on my own using ODIN. Please can anyone who is more at ease with the process than me give me the procedure to do so ( I have flashed custom roms on other phones in the past).
I would also appreciate if you could give me a direct download link for the OS if ever you have it. I had seen them in this forum once but forgot where and which keywords to type.
And also and most importantly could you advise me about which versions will be compatible with my country's networks i.e Mauritius.
My phone's details are :
Model SM-G900F
Model name GALAXY S5
Country Unknown

I was given a Samsung galaxy note 3 32gb sm-n9005 (Orange France)
Problem is all the default apps are in French and the signal was rather quirky not really working on TNZ network (Telecom New Zealand)
Me being me decided to downgrade to 4.4.2 from 5.0 to put it on the Telecom (now Spark) network with all the correct settings and apps etc
This is what I have tried installing:
Model SM-N9005
Model name GALAXY Note 3 LTE
Country New Zealand
Version Android 4.4.2
Changelist 1955971
Build date Mon, 28 Jul 2014 12:56:29 +0000

It installs to approx 97% and fails on the hidden.img.ext4
I have tried using different pits to no avail just keeps failing
Any suggestions please ? I have read countless threads but can't figure this one out at all....

You think I'm stupid maybe but.... New Zeland (TNZ) never gonna work if your phone is branded to France (Orange). No? It's normal that ODIN give you error everytime.
*Steps to follow:
1. Download the correct firmware to Orange (FRANCE): HERE.
2. Unzip and flash it via ODIN.
3. Buy a unlock code by IMEI and unlock your device.
4. Every SIM should work now (your device is international).
5. Done.

Nah all sorted - It was a case of finding the correct pit file to match the firmware, the phone was already on a different provider here in NZ so once I got the right one with the hidden partition all went well....
Hi,
I am having trouble rooting my phone, indeed, when I go to download mode, my phone version number is: SM-G9006v, BUT when I go in about phone, the number is SM-G900F.
As I bought this phone on amazon, not from official samsung, I'm gonna bet it's the G9006v sold by some chinese as the G900F.
They probably changed the stock firmware version number.
Anyhow, my problem is that KingRoot or one click root or any other root software detects it as the G900F, so they fail because it is NOT the 900F.
Is there anyway I can tell KingRoot to use the 9006V method ? Or is there any trick I could do to root this phone ? (I can't find any ODIN images for it)
Thanks !

Also it has 185 Secret Codes (so I'm guessing it's not a fake)
Moreover, the Knox has been void, but it has always been on 0x1 ! Since the day I got it !
So basically it has been flashed before I even bought it new XD
SM-G9006V = China Mobile (WCDMA network)
what country/network are u in
does current sim work for your network for calls and data and what signal do u get now, 3g, lte, hspa etc
sammobile fw for 9006v http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SM-G9006V/
Yes,
I am on Ultra Mobile (AT&T sub contractor) And it works great, the phone is fully unlocked and worked in Japan on Docom and France on Free...
In the 3 countries, I got 4G data (LTE for US, not sure for japan or france)
What should I do with the stock ROM ?
Should I reflash the phone with the stock chinese ROM ? (ahahah that's gonna be fun with kanji based menu to find my way around XD)
I'd rather Root this build, than learn chinese xD
oh, i thought u wanted stock.
how does it fail when flashing for root, whats the error message.
So if I try with ODIN,
It loads the 900F file, uploads it reboot, and then goes onto a Recovery boot loop
Loading recovery ...
Reboor
Loading Recovery ...
reboot
I can unbrick it by uploading philz klte recovery, BUT I still can't reach the recovery menu
Sadly there is no ODIN root file for the 9006v
If I use King Root (or towel root) it basically tries the 900F method, and then tells me it could not root it.
if it truly is a 9006v twrp has a recovery for it , its code name is kltechn and u use odin to flash the tar image
https://twrp.me/devices/samsunggalaxys5qualcomm.html
it seems 9006v is the same kltechn as these SM-G9008V, SM-G9006W, SM-G9008W, SM-G9009W
Hi and thank you for your time.
I´ve performed an advanced wipe with TWRP without a back up (thought i had) so i´ve got no OS and now i just want my stock firmware back installed.
I found several stock roms in another web site with csc and pda codes and I don't know wich one i should install.
Also i don´t know what info is relevant to answer the questions i have made. What i do have is:
Model SM-J320M
FCC ID
SSN
Country it was made Argentina
CNC ID
IMEI
S/N
And that the phone it self is not related to any comunication company but my service provider is CLARO
ps. I´ve contacted samsung support and the answer was to take it to a support center but i need to learn if im gonna keep messing with my phone..besides i'm broke ha!
