installing gt-i9505 on sgh-i337 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin

Hi everyone!
I would like to know if I can install software from international version gt-i9505 on my sgh-i337 device.
I have bought my S4 a year ago in US as an unlocked phone. It was working fine but when I came to Poland the problems have started.
First of all I have problems with signal strength specially outside the urban areas. The phone shows me that I have a signal but when I want to make a call or text someone I get a communicate that I'm out of signal. I don't have this problem in cities. It also drop calls suddenly during conversations.
In my opinion the problem is different frequencies of network.
2G bands GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 - all versions
3G bands HSDPA 850 / 900 / 1900 / 2100
HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100 - SGH-i337
4G bands LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 20(800)
LTE band 1(2100), 2(1900), 4(1700/2100), 5(850), 7(2600), 17(700) - SGH-i337

My operator in Poland uses 900 , 1800 and 2100 specially 900 for non-urban areas.
LTE works fine but I can not make video calls because of the differences between used frequencies I guess.
So my question is: if I would be able to install gt-i9505 on my sgh-i337 and is it going to solve my problems with signal strength and drop calls?
I can not upload photos so this is what I have in PhoneInfo:

and after choossing "refurbishment check" I have "it looks like your phone is a refurbished one"

I would not cross-flash ROMs because this may brick the phone too.

I have an unlocked Verizon Galaxy S5. It’s issue is it cannot send MMS messages. The Access Point Names field missing in settings / more networks / mobile networks. It just isn’t there.
I flashed kltevzw_AllianceRom_Build1.1 and can now send MMS messages, but now cannot access mobile data. The Network Mode is set to LTE / CDMA and Mobile Data is ON. It gets Error code: ERR_INTERNET_DISCONNECTED when it tries to access the internet thru a browser.
I flashed ExtremeSyndicate_v1, kltevzw_RootOdex_NCG, and SlymHydeR11-2 ROMs and had the same data issue as with kltevzw_AllianceRom_Build1.1
Any ideas would be great as I have exhausted my extremely limited knowledge about Android phones.

Please create APN with the following info from verizon:
https://apn.gishan.net/settings/752_13_verizon_apn_settings_for_samsung_galaxy_s5.php

I attempted to create an APN with that info but the add (+) button is grayed out and all the settings for the existing APN are grayed out as well. I tried to use APN 2.1 as well with the same result.

Try to flash another unbranded firmware. Unbranded firmware will allow you to edit APN.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk

Do you have a suggestion / link for an unbranded firm ware that will work with this phone? I tried a few in my initial attempts to correct the issue and bricked the phone several times.

Ok, I've tried several firmwares said to be unbranded:
G900V_FirmwareOnly_NE9.tar.md5, G900V_NE9_Stock_Kernel.tar, G900VVRU1ANE9_G900VVZW1ANE9_G900VVRU1ANE9_HOME.tar.md5, SEE-G900FXXU1ANG9-20140811155202, and VZW-G900VVRU1ANE9-20140808084527 all either failed to load via Odin3 or bricked the phone.
G900R6WWU2AND7_G900R6LRA2AND7_LRA and Galaxy S5 system G900VVRU1ANCG both load and operate the phone, but neither allow access to changing the APN settings with the stock ROM to correct the MMS messaging issue or give me data access with custom ROMs.
Any other ideas? I got nothing here. As I stated before I've exhausted my limited knowledge. Any help is greatly appreciated.

SM-G900R6 VZW LRA Partner Carrier Variant Help Thread
What carrier are you using that phone on? That phone isn't sold or designed for Verizon users, which is why you're having issues.. It's the lra carrier model. Stock roms (at least on roms I've used) also don't generally give you an option to create apns, even with apps. So that leaves you apn backup and restore, you should be able to use it for mms/LTE. Follow XDA thread showing process on how to use it on kitkat. Tho that leaves you with a problem of getting a apn backup of a Verizon user. If you are a Verizon user, where did you get the phone anyway??? It's basically an unlocked/unbranded cdma phone that was designed for the small carriers Verizon is partnered with, even tho it works because it's cdma you will have issues with Verizon, they won't give you support on it if you bring it in or whatever.
Also... Never flash firmware not designed for your phone. Only use the g900r6 one you found. Looks like you tripped Knox and bricked several times in the process..

XEU - Android 7

Hi all.
Hoping someone can help me, and I apologise if this is a stupid question.
I've got an S7 edge I purchased from Carphone warehouse a SIM free. I've then got myself a SIM only deal from 3UK (H3G).
I know that Android 7 firmware had been released for BTU handsets, but not XEU. I have seen though, that it is available through 3 themselves.
Does that mean I can flash this to my phone:
