What is the correct model G900F or G900T? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys. I am from chile and i am new here and would you mind help me with a problem in my Galaxy S5?
I bought this phone in aliexpress. I guess the hardware is genuine. But the software have some weird thing.
My phone is G900F version. But in the Download mode the version is G900T?? Is that wrong?
Also, in the menu of android recovery system is G900T too. But when i extract the battery i can see Model: G900F
I am not sure what is the correct model, and i think that the software was modified, because Knox is 0x1.
Yesterday, i treid to update the Android from 4.4.2 to 5.0 with Odin using an oficial ROM from Sammobile. I used a ROM G900F, but the process failed every time.
Is the Android Recovery Modified? What is the correct model? I think that correct model is G900F because is appears behind the phone but now i am not sure, and still i cant update to lollipop
I wait for your help
Thanks

it sounds like they had a G900T phone that probably had no battery or a crappy one and decided to switch it with a battery from a G900F model for whatever reason. I'm sure the phone itself is a G900T, but it's hard to tell.
They could also have flashed a G900T ROM on a G900F, i think.

IMEI Info
Days ago i checked the IMEI info about my phone. The website say that the model is G900T
But it is weird. IMEI, Download mode and system recovery say: G900T, but Behind the phone (extracting the battery) i see G900F and in Settings: About Device: base band is G900F, compilation number is 2jia478.G900F and model number SM-G900F.
¿What is the correct version? Because when I tried update manually to lollipop with a ROM G900F, Odin said: FAILED.
¿Have I to try with G900T ROM? Because G900T ROM from sammobile is for T-Mobile and It is for USA and I am from Chile.
Is there a problem with that? (Doesnt exist ROM G900T for Chile, just for USA)

Samsung Galaxy SM-9006V registered as SM-G900F Root issue

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

I tried flashing a Colombian Lollipop stock ROM ( PDA N9005VJSGBRH1 ) but Odin (v 3.13.1) fails at aboot.mbn.
The device is not bricked or anything, but I am unable to flash the Android 5.0 ROM.
Could you please let me know which stock ROM should I download and flash, or any other steps I should follow to get stock Lollipop on this device?
Thanks!
What is your device ??
Boot to download mode.
You have n9005 firmware. and N900 boatloader That's 100%wrong.

Thank you for your reply, I am still learning all of this since I am a newbie.
I have a SM-N9005. And yes, the bootloader and firmware are weird because I think it I got it soft bricked before so I fixed it in any way I could at that time.
What would you recommend me to download and flash now? I would like to flash stock 5.0 for Latin America if possible.
Thanks! :good:

S5 but unsure what is safe as it's 900v made to look list 900f

Hi new to the boards
Im in the uk
Just bought a s5 yesterday as mine had black screen etc so new screen etc being fitted.
Firmware etc is 900f but phone is 900v
Only noticed when home
Unlocked and working fine . Got another s5 as mine in for repair and wife can have that when fixed.black screen .
This is from a shop with warranty
But this one is running some strange things
Running android 5
Is there any way to upgrade to 6.1 ? Or newer
Can see a lot of differences which made me check .
Sticker inside is g900v
Any help and advice on flashing new firmware would be great .
Seems it's a mix of a phone and if can't be updated then I may take it back tomorrow
Thanks

First, you should boot to download (Odin) mode and read the "Product nane" there to understand which phone model you have.
Generally, any S5 is upgradable to 6.0.1.
Concern is that if it's some how flashed as a 500f and originally a 500 v
Used basics like phone checker
Refurbishment check and we'll I think this phone will be going back
Invalid Samsung serial number
Manufacture date does not match serial number
6.1 or higher I'd be happy with so newer even . It's just the problems I could occur as it's a Heinz 57 phone by all accounts . 57 varieties all mixed into one lol

Well, it's Verizon's phone.
There's a nice SM-G900V section on this forum here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/
The simplest way to upgrade is to flash the latest Verizon firmware with Odin. You can download it here: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850486654
Then you may like to use this application http://www.packagedisabler.com/ to disable Verison's bloatware. Probably, you'll need to set up APN manually.
The second, more complicated way, is to flash a custom firmware.
thanks for the reply
actually returned the phone and now have a replacement .
s5 but its 900f
all checked and legitimate
it was french sfr
whats the best i can do with this ?
its running 6.1
but maybe other options are available that work well in the uk
im on 3 network
i was contemplating if a 3 uk rom could be used or a standard rom not linked to any network ? so no bloat ware ?
only thing ive done so far is root with odin and auto root which was easy to do

What version of S8 do I have?

Hi everyone,
I bought a secondhand S8 but I am confused what version is it. Under "About Phone", it says the model is a SM-G950F. When I did a IMEI check online, it says it a SM-G950UZSASPR
So which model do I have exactly? A SM-G950F or a SM-G950U? It only has 1 slot for SIM card and the other for SDCard. I suspect it might have the wrong firmware inside? But the phone doesn't look like it has been rooted.
Should I be changing the firmware to something that I can use in my country (Singapore)? If so, how can I go about doing it and which version of firmware should I use? Will samsung pay not work if I root the phone and change the firmware?
Thanks in advance.

Install Phone Info Samsung from the play store.
Link here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo
From there take a look at your "CSC CODE" tab, should give you the country and what carrier specific model/sw is installed.
I would update it to your country specific sw if possible.
If you root, you will not have Samsung Pay. I am not sure if majisk can hide it enough to use, maybe someone else can chime in on that more thoroughly.

Looks like you have options if you wish:
Singapore (XSP)
Singapore (MM1)
Singapore (SingTel) (SIN)
Singapore (StarHub) (STH)
I'm not too familiar with how you would need to change it, if it's even required at all. My method, me being located in the US, is much more complicated than what you would need to do. Hopefully someone else can give you more input or send you in the right direction.

Look in download mode, whatever it says is the model there that's what it is. Then flash the firmware you require for that model. Confused as the BL is G950U which is Snapdragon, whereas firmware is from exynos...

There was a Hong Kong variant that was Snapdragon for the S8
The only true method would to be remove the back glass and check model of mother board
Exactly! That is what I am confused about.

It appears to be a Sprint version. But with Odin and csc files and matching sim card you can make it any us carrier
Thanks guys. The phone is indeed a SM-G950U. I managed to used Odin and flash SM-G950U1 firmware onto it. I used the XAA version with a local non-US SIM. Samsung pay seems to be working. However there is no option to enable VOLTE and the FM radio.
U1 firmware are lacking those features...
