Basically the region and/or the cell provider. There's a list somewhere on XDA that goes over each model.

I believe all the ones that aren't CDMA?
From GSMArena:
Samsung Galaxy S5
Available as:
Samsung SM-G900F - for Europe
Samsung SM-G900I - for Asia
Samsung SM-G900K/G900L/G900S - for Korea
Samsung SM-G900M - for Vodafone
Samsung SM-G900A - for AT&T
Samsung SM-G900T - for T-Mobile
Samsung SM-G900V - for Verizon
Samsung SM-G900R4 - for US Cellular
Samsung SM-G900P - for Sprint
As for which one for Australia, I have no idea. I believe that for other devices Australia uses the EU model, so it's likely that one. But I can't guarantee it.
I'm from Malaysia but here have f version only and in Indonesia only version h

The official australian version is G900I since G900F doesn't support some of the LTE frequencies (700Mhz and 2300Mhz).

Hi
I have a follow question , but till now i did not found the ansfer for.
I have G900W8 but shortly will migrate to Europe, and would like to use my own language, that is currently not supported by W8 firmware.
Is it safe to use G900F firmware and flash it to G900W8 model ? or i will kill it
Change model number
May I know how can I flash SM-900F firmware on an SM0900I Galaxy S5 as the Australian SM-900I firmware has some limitations?

Search for 'Odin' in the forums and download the firmware from www.sammobile.com.

People really shouldn't flash firmwares that are not meant for your phone. While they might be 99% identical, there are some differences like the 3g/4g bands that the device supports.

I bought the G900F in Hong Kong and works perfectly well in Australia on Vodafone 4G. I also flashed the UK BTU firmware over the stock ZHU firmware and simply brilliant.
I think you limit yourselves buying the G900I version as the G900F has far more options for flashing stock firmwares, and works perfectly well in Australia. The G900I version reminds me of the S4 Mini (i9195T version) which was Vodafone/Telstra only and never received the 4.3 update, or any others for that matter.... Better to get a phone that has world wide coverage, than one that's limited to Australia if you care about timely updates.
FYi, if you check www.samfirmware.com, you'll see that the listed G900I is only Australia and Taiwan... G900F is everything from Europe to Asia.
I have the G900H in south America.
I bought S5- SM-G900F from Dubai airport and wanted to know if it will work in India/US
thanks for info
am just wondering if compatability of different models and 4G coverage
Thanks
I have a SM-G900F phone in Australia for last 2 years., and have no problems whatsoever.

Hi, n7505 is Note 3 Neo that support LTE, not Note 3.
For Note 3 Neo, you may need to ask the question here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-3-neo
What is your CSC code? Germany is a country, not CSC code.
I've just bought a Note 4 to replace my much-loved Note 2. I'm in the UK.
It was advertised as the European Version, but it's marked as a N910H, that I read on here is the Asian Version.
Is that right?
The label says it's an N910HGSMH
and when I look through About Device it says the Baseband Version is N910HXXU1ANK5.
What does that tell you experts about the phone? Is it compatible with European LTE?
Should I really have a N910F ?
I'm worried about this so would be glad to have any comments please!
I have bought motherboard of note 3 version 9005, 32 gb with lte function from China. But whatever I do I can't get any lte working in Israel. No matter what career. By baseband it has basebands for all careers but never get lte(4G). Even Though I updated to the latest android lollipop 5.0. Now in settings it has written lte/wcdma/gsm. but actually I can't have lte.
My motherboard region is Hong Kong (TGY), China but I am in Israel.
1. I want to have lte function.
2. Hebrew interface of the phone.
Please help.
Is it okay to flash different model number?? I have SM-N910f and unlock it using z3x box but it seems to work only in GSM and I think it's because of the firmware from Europe and I want to use it in Asia. I am planning to use SM-N910C firmware. Will it brick the device?
Because I have searched for threads flashing their device into different model number, just making sure nothing bad will happen.
Thank you

Yes it will brick for sure. You can only flash firmware for N910F. You can flash firmware for a different region... like Asia region but it must be the same model
Do you have any idea on where can i find note 4 n910f international firmware? I have tried a lot of firmware but it doesn't seem to be the international firmware

What region are you in? What region firmware would you like on your device?
I'm from the Philippines so I think it should be DX
