[Q] Flashing ROMs from different variants - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Okay, so I have the N910f Note 4 and my question is whether we are able to flash AOSP/CM12 based roms created for other snapdragon variants of the Note 4 on our device?
I have attempted to install PAC-Man rom for the T-Mobile variant however it gave me an error so I decided to flash the T-Mobile variant TWRP to see if it helps with the issue; however the flashing process went further than before but it gave me the error of unable to mount /system.
As I previously owned an S4 I was able to flash ROMs made for any snapdragon variant S4, is there anything preventing this from happening on the Note 4?

Hi,
It is possible to flash CM12 but only that is ported to exactly N910F. Sometimes it is possible to Flash Roms of G-Variants on F and other way around. I'm not sure about T-Mobile variants.
So if you want to install AOSP/CM12 just flash one that is for F-variant. There are some ready:

[Q] Question About Which GS4 Variants Can Flash Certain Roms

Hello, I have a recently purchased i9505g (Google Edition) Galaxy S4. After unlocking the bootloader, installing a custom recovery, and rooting, I have become curious about which ROMs specifically I can flash on my device. I understand that some variants have different internal components which can render improper devices bricked. If anyone can tell me which GS4 Development threads I can download ROMs from, I would be extremely thankful!

Use this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/i9505-develop
Be sure to read the flashing instructions for the rom you wish to flash.
Make sure you make a nandroid backup before flashing anything.
Good luck!
Thank you for the information. Just for clarity, the i9505g CAN in fact flash the i9505 ROMs?
Anyone?

There are bunch of how to root on the forum or look on YouTube. As for your question I have the same device model and had no problem rooting it. Or in other words it will work fine if you follow the instructions

Note 3 Canadian Versions

Hey guys, So i'm finally switching my galaxy S4 to note 3 today, I'm located in canada
My S4 was tmobile version and I loved using different custom roms. However, I can't seem to find a forum for Note 3 rogers, or other models. Sm-n900w8 is the model #.
I'm with android for the custom roms if I can't install it there's no point in buying it. So I was wondering, if I get a rogers note 3 can I still install custom roms, root it and all??
Seems no one has responded. The short answer is yes. Just search the SM-N900W8 in the forums. I have the same phone and have Tamesek's CM12 etc.

Having trouble finding a custom Rom

Hi guys, I have an Note 4 sm-n910k, with Exynos Octa 5433 (running marshmallow 6.0.1). I currently have a Korean stock Rom, and I'd like put a custom Rom on it (CM 13 ideally). I looked around, and it seems that all the roms are for the other variations of this phone, but not the "K" version. What's the main difference in the models that stops me from installing one of variant roms, as all I can see is that they have a different baseband, or can I basically use any of the 32gb Exynos variant roms, as the hardware seems to be the same. Failing that does anybody have a line on any good roms? Sorry for such a noob question, and thanks in advance to anyone who can help.

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...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/rom-nemesis-refined-v3-5-n7port-t3587637
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.
