[Q] Help flashing ROM on Note 3? Network not working

Hi,
I am trying to flash the Galaxy S5 Stock ROM by @jamal2367 and am having some trouble. I do a full wipe and am able to flash the ROM successfully, however my mobile network doesn't work once it's flashed. I am able to connect via Wifi and the ROM seems awesome...I'm even able to download all of my apps and sync my Google account on it. When I try to text, make calls, etc. I don't have the service to do it, though.
I am currently running the PAC-man 4.4.4 ROM. I have a Note 3 through Sprint. Model number is SM-N900P, Baseband version is N900PVPUCNC5. Do I need to do something different with any of this? My bootloader? Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Scott
You should try the S5 port on the Sprint section of the Note 3. I believe it's made by Sac?
Thank you! I know...seems obvious now but that never even crossed my mind.

[Q] Help regarding SM-G900P

Hey everyone, I been looking around the forums here and other sites and have learned a lot of info in pieces but I really need help with a particular issue. A friend of mine gave me a Sprint Galaxy SM-G900P (Galaxy S5) which is (of course) CDMA with GSM compatibility. Im unsure at the moment what service he was wanting to use but I know it is a GSM carrier (US) because he has a SIM he wanted to use. I owe him a favor so I told him I would try. Besides going the route of purchasing a unlock box and unlocking the phone with that, I discovered the SSU apk which SIM-Unlocks the phone. I downgraded the phone from Lollipop 5.0 stock to Android 4.4.2 KitKat (G900PVPU1ANE5) with ODIN. (FYI, i was stuck in download mode with no recovery mode for a week before finally getting one to work, and so happen to be that version that went through)..... I downloaded SSU and it unlocked the phone and I switched mobile network mode from CDMA to GSM Units. (NOTE: it says 4.4.2 and up will not work with USA carrier SIM cards without downgrading the Modem but I have not tried just yet) Im about to Root the phone but here is where my question comes in. I have read of people flashing roms to get their phones to work with certain carriers and other functions. Will rooting help me out at all? I guess IM asking if there is a ROM that I can flash onto the phone to enable the use of whatever carrier he is wanting to use with it. I know thats most likely useful in the situation, but Im awaiting that answer as we type. ANY help would be greatly appreciated ))) Thank you all.
Anyone? :/

i9505 i337m canada mobile network connectivity

Hello All,
I have a samsung galaxy s4 i337m in canada using the rogers netowork. Ive been using customs roms shortly after i got this phone. Ive used samsung rom, original, GPE but eventually settled on Cyanogenmod. I use TWRP for the i9505 which allows me to use any rom (since CM12 doesnt have a build for the i337m, and other builds wont flash in a i337m TWRP).
Anyway ive been using CM 12.1 with a i9505 build for some time, and it works great. I had to update my modem to the NI2 build to get it to work, but its been working flawless ever since.
Now to my problem, buddy has an S4, same model, same carrier. He claims he needs a new phone and i beg to differ. I rooted, installed twrp (i9505)and cm12.1 (i9505). works great, however no network connectivity. I remember i need a new modem, try the same one that works with mine....nothing... try a different one.... nothing. calls and SMS, but not data of any speed.
Reverting to kitkat roms results in it working perfectly (multiple modems). both from his original Nandroid and CM 11. All lollipop roms seems to have the same issue, no mobile data. Wifi works fine. No issues with SIM card, switched them between the two phones and confirmed its HIS phone with the issue.
Im a little puzzled, can someone recommend a modem to load? should I try to use TWRP an CM12 for the ATT variant/ different variant? I want to help him but this is making me look amateur (even if its true).
Thanks ahead of time.

Updating Galaxy S4 from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4+

I'm contemplating purchasing a new phone. I found a refurbished S4 for $75 and want to buy it, but I need at least 4.4.4 so I can play Pokemon GO. Does anyone know if it can get to 4.4.4 or higher? Also, if so, does it require rooting?
I also read that it's up to the cell phone carriers to allow a higher firmware, so if it's a case of the carrier, does Net10 allow you to get to 4.4.4 or higher?
Which variant of the S4 is it? if it's the international, samsung has 5.1.1 released so you won't have to root it.
you can always root it if the carrier hasn't updated it. which I doubt

It's not your carrier that matters, it's the carrier which the phone was purchased from that matters.
I actually purchased the S5, T-Mobile is the original carrier, and they have Marshmallow available, however, for whatever reason, I can't get it downloaded. I'm using Net10 as the wireless provider, but when I search for updates via wifi or 4G, it says there are none available (I'm currently on 4.4.2). Any clue what to do? On the phone with T-Mobile now but god knows if they're competent enough to help me.

These are the S4 forums, mate.
You started the thread mentioning something about an S4, which now turned into an S5 somehow.
And you can always download the firmware and flash it manually. Or update with Kies.

Enter download mode and read off the model number of the S5. If it says anything other than SM-G900T, then that is why you are having issues with the download. Keep in mind that there are Straight Talk and Net10 versions of the S5 available. Both are on 4.4.2 and no upgrades are available other than by installing a custom ROM.
Sorry, I didn't know this was strictly S4. I'm a bit unobservant. But for those who may randomly be brought to this page via Google. I did the update via Samsung Switch for the PC. Google it, should be the first link. Apologies to all for the mixup.
