I think I know the answer to this... but thought I would ask anyway...
I am about to get rid of my Galaxy Note 3 as its just a bit too big for me. I loved my S4, so bought a second hand one and it turns out to be an i9506... I am using SOKP on my Note 3 and really like it - so wanted to use it on my i9506 - but I cant find any information to say whether there is a version available for the i9506.
Can anyone offer any advice - or suggest a nice ROM worth a go on the i9506?
Thanks in advance

hey,
so i finally decided to get a s4 and happily walked into the GT-i9506 which matched my needs in terms of newest hardware and just being the s4. my question now is:
how can i use custom roms etc., as i couldn't find any useful words about this model.
i know dev support isn't or will not be as good as for the 9505, but is there at least something?
thanks in advance.

Where did you get this from? Which country?
Hi
I got a phone direct from Samsung and on the boot screen it states that its a GT I9506. I cannot see anything on this phone? I was told that its a pre production phone.Its running the below
Androd 4.2.2
Baseband I19506XXUAMHA
build number is JDQ39.I9506xxuamha
kernel is [email protected]#1 Tue Aug 13 23:44:23KST 2013
No posts on this phone and its unrooted but don't want to touch it yet as cannot find any info on it?
Anyone here of this and can it be rooted or what options do I have as bloatware I just disabled but cannot install ad aware on it and Adverts driving me nuts and battery consumption bit higher
Thanks
Luck
Consider yourself as happy!
The i9506 has a faster processor than the i9505 and it has LTE+!
If you're unhappy we could change phones :victory:!

I have the same phone I'm in Australia
Here in Germany you can get this new Galaxy S4 LTE+, too. You only get it from Deutsche Telekom (t-mobile). It is really cool! :laugh:
Cool but no tested root until now....

Hi, I was just wondering about the i9506. How do you find it works in Oz? Do you have any problems with it, or would you recommend it? I live on the Gold Coast. I was looking for a 32gb internal i9505 but can't find one anywhere. Any help would be awesome.
Cheers mate.
Hi everybody! I want to change my phone but my operator propose just the galaxy GT 9506. I read on the galaxy s4 thread that it's difficulte to root this and they are no many rom for this version. My question: can i root the galaxy s4 gt 9506 and put a firmwear from galaxy s4 gt 9505. Thank's for read my thread and to give me an answer.:silly:
Yes you can root.
No, you can't put 9505 ROM into it.
But I suspect, some mod from 9505 or 9500 may work on 9506 (same Android version should have greater chance, as we occasionally using note3 mod on our s4, it probably works as long as don't go too deep into system, like kernel things, what I am talking about is more like theme or something ) and the xposed module may work as well.
If you don't wanna AOSP ROM.
Xposed module should fit you.
I've had 9506 and return back to exchange 9505 and now I found I could get what I want on stock firmware with xposed so I'm little bit of regret actually

Most xposed mods work with S4 I9506.

Thank you for the accuracy of your answer. I hesitated between LG g2 and galaxy S4. My preference goes to the S4 because I already had a S2, S3 therefore the logical consequence was the S4. But the proposed operator by my 9506 model slows a little. Your answer made me decide to order S4 and hopefully not regret my choice. thank you

But beside the lack of AOSP ROM (someone is working on porting CM11) and 3rd part kernel, i9506 really outrun the i9505, specially the GPU part...
But anyway, it's kinda over-performance... as we usually don't need that kinda performance, even for Snapdragon 600.
I think, most ROM part of customization can be achieved by Xposed modules, good luck!
I did not need a lot of customization but I just wish rooter my phone and put a samsung official firmwear to delete all apps from my operator. The choice of S4 is really out of loyalty and passion for samsung. I do not really need the full power of the snapdragon 800, 4G as starts in France and yet I did not receive. So your information is extremely useful to me because I know I just choose the S4 9506, the rooter and remove apps operators. thank you
I really would love this ROM to make My s4 have as much s5 features as possible.. But can't seem to find out if there is a sprint variant.. Please inform.. Thanks
hi, i've tried samy deluxe i don't want to grow in my Sprint variant, it works, but i can't flash the update Jello biafra, you can't try too, good luck.
Sorry for the bad enghish.
Hi all,
Sorry to be a pain, but I just bought a Note 3 "n900" (http://www.ebay.com/itm/361130730558) and I've been doing some reading and saw that lollipop may be avalible for my soon-to-be new phone.
But i'm a little confused, my search results bring up pages of SM-n900 and I am not sure if this is the same thing as just plain old n900 which is the version that I bought.
Anyway, if anyone can clarify the difference, i'd appreciate it. I'm specifically just looking to flash lollipop when it arrives (if it already doesn't update) and root to remove bloatware. Any advice?
Thanks!
SM stands for Samsung Mobile.
The full device designation is SM-N900. N900 is the same device, the name has just been shortened for convenience sake.
If you go to Settings > General > About Device it should say SM-N900 under Model Number.
