Its possible to flash a SM-G900F rom to my SM-G900T.
I have an unlocked SM-G900T and live in Italy, so i would like to remove the branding and i dont need WiFi calling ect. If its possible, whats the best way to do this? I found some threads where its written that i shouldn't flash it via Odin. Where can i get the firmware else? I always used sammobile so far.
The reasons i want to do this:
* Remove branding (Bootscreen, Bootsound, ...)
* Get the updates earlier
* Remove unused applications from T-Mobile (WiFi Calling, WiFi Hotspot, ...)
Thanks for your help.
There is no way that no one in the entire world knows the answer to this...
I'd imagine you can and it'll work fine, but I won't chance it. Did you do it?
Yes it works
Hi. I flashed the Cyanogenmod 12.0 Alpha from the Galaxy S5 ROM Section, and im using it for a month now. Installing the Rom was easy and i had no problems. I installed CWM Recovery and installed the rom using zip from sdcard.
What about the opposite direction. G900T ROM to a G900F.
I live in Saudi Arabia and still a Tmo customer. I'd like to have the wifi calling feature, but I haven't seen it discussed to flash a G900T rom to a G900F.
Any chance it will work without complications?
Hay there, guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4, which is AT&T branded called i337 which is running 4.4.4 (i337UCUFNJ4)
I have bought it in a used mobile shop here in Pakistan and have tried it with many prepaid SIMs like ufone, Jazz, Zong and Telenor
All SIMs are working fine and don't ask for any SIM authorisation or something like my Verizon i545 used to ask for and gave my SIM
verification error all the time and a Question ? mark was always on the top of my screen.
So what i want now is to install Lollipop on my device as every ROM enthusiast may want.
I know the lollipop has not been made available for my device till now but i have read here;
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-att/general/install-i9505-tw-5-0-i337m-t3056176
and i know that i9505 and i337 are very very same in the hardware build so i think it is right to say that we can install i9505's firmware on it.
SO if any guru/dev having been working on it can please show me a way.

Not possible at this moment.
Hello,
I bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 with 4G (used) and was everything working perfectly. However, to be used, restored factory settings to start used the S4. With that, my SIM card (however recognize other carriers) and did not recognize it, I tried to make the unlock / change firmware / ...
When trying to install a ROM of Brazil, Odin error, coincidentally checked on the mobile screen that had written SGH-I337, logo is a US S4, with I9500XXUGNG3 firmware (4.4.2 Russian). With that, I thought the ROM was blocking my SIN, it tried to install an original ROM that SGH-I337 model and upgrading to Android 5.0.1 Lollipop ... ROM came full of AT & T apps, and left me quite disappointed.
In short, I am with a horrible ROM and without using my SIM card (I'm thinking it's physical problem).
Can anyone help me restore / install a factory ROM, if possible, Lollipop? I'm trying to do one week and could not.
Already, thanks!
Sorry for the English, I'm using a translator.

I had already reported it, but has to take this question .
It is a SGH- I337 . So I can only install roms the i337 AT & T ? Is there any clean rom ?
I already concludes the problem of my SIN card, is that the device 4g band is different from 4g Brazil , therefore, it does not recognize . But he recognizes the other SIN Card 3g Brazil . Will I have to buy a SIN Card 3g or if there is a possibility to change the band that s4 find my SIN card would be even better.
Remembering my S4 had a rom i9500
Before flashing anything else, install the Samsung phone info app to confirm the bootloader version in the phone.
If the bootloader is 4.3 or newer, the bootloader is locked and you cannot install twrp or cwm. You can install safestrap and flash custom Roms based on stock Samsung Roms.

a question, i337 = i9505 ?
Nope, i337 and 9505 are slightly different as they support different frequencies and the bootloader on the 337 is locked.

The cool thing is that the i337 was this I9500XXUGNG3 firmware that had the ability to use Portuguese Brazil , I would like to return to this firmware. How I do? I tried by Odin but always of it :
<ID : 0/011 > sboot.bin
<ID : 0/011 > NAND Write Start!
<ID : 0/011 > FAIL !
do you have any idea?
The bootloader is locked so you can't install 9505 firmware on the i337.

which leaves me with great doubt is that it was with this I9500XXUGNG3 firmware stating it was a i9500 .
with this I tried to install android 5.0 thinking that manages to come unlock my SIM CARD and still not resolved . I think a matter of size or shape of the SIM card , seila . I have a lot of headache to solve this.
Do you flashed back to stock i337 firmware and it won't accept your SIM card unless you enter a network unlock code?

I am currently using with another SIM CARD and runs regular without typing unlock code and whatever be 4.4.x as 5.0.
However the rom one that I managed to install this was " http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2674223 " with root.
So I would like to set up a Stock ROM that was clean , without anything of AT & T , which before I had with I9500XXUGNG3 firmware (including Portuguese Brazil )
Did you put a pin on your sim? Did you enter the sim code too many times and the phone locked the sim?

Forget History sim card hahaha xD
Can you help me one installing a rom for this i337 without the AT & T ? Preferably a clean like that had previously , as i9500 .
The bootloader is locked on the i337 so you only flash ROMs using safestrap.
If you want to remove ATT apps, you'll have to root and use root explorer to delete them. You could also try Titanium Backup to remove apps.
Hi im writing to you about any idea to take off simlock from my note 4 vodafone UK
I have Devbase Marshmallow rom im trying to changing roms but this options doesnt help me
Its any chance to do this for free or i just need pay for it ?
There are several online services, but before deciding on any of them try to either install the stock rom or to contact them and mention your rom details. because often times, the sim unlock process will not work for certain roms
Hi All,
Please excuse me in case this was already adressed in other post.
Case: I bought in South Korea a brand new Samsung Galaxy S8 (SM-G950N) Exynos version. Im very happy with the phone but there are a few diferences between this one and the spanish version of the phone. For example, since in Korea apparently is not legal to silence the shutter of the camera there is no option in the phone to remove this sound. Other things are for example the apps that by default are installed in the phone. In my case the carrier is KT and I have a ton of apps that I cannot use or Im not interested.
Questions:
Q1.- Is there a possibility to install the samsung stock rom for the S8 clean (from Spain for example) and get rid of all this crap and at the same time maintain all warranty and Updates as any other "not modified" phone?
Q2.- Will the software change once i insert the SIM car from my spanish carrier showing me option available in the S8 spanish software version that i cannot see now from the Korean version?
Q3.- can I use a baseband from any other carrier and if not is there compatible basebands with my phone?
any help will be much appreciated.
thanks in advance.

I have a Korean phone (g950N) and have done everything that you want to it EXCEPT my warranty is void. Initially, I rooted the phone and flashed a different stock ROM. Since then, I've flashed a custom ROM (Renovate-ice) as it gives me far more options and flexibility. During the installation, you can choose the country you want and it will add all the relevant software and frequencies etc.

AFAIK you will not get to the result you want, as long as you don't want to void your warranty (knox 0x1).
Flashing a g950F Firmware on a g950N device will lead to a not booting phone.
So:

Also, no. Your CSC won't change when inserting a different SIM.
As to the third question, I can't answer.
But if you would be willing to void your warranty, you of course can change the csc to a spain one, get all the spain carrier bloatware and can deactivate the shutter sound.
voLTE ISSUE
I am facing a similar problem.
i bought a galaxy s8 (SM-G950n) from south korea. But here, in india, i can't use voLTE. i can use LTE and other band at ease except voLTE. Then googled and found that indian csc code installation may help. But the problem is that the phone i have is single sim and the indian model has dual sim. If i flash the indian stock rom will it brick? If it bricks i can't gp back to south korea to resolve that. i contacted the korean samsung service but their help didn't work.
Give me a strong solution.
