Rom question - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I have a galaxy s5 LTE, g901f on android 5.0.2 and i want to downgrade to 4.4. Can i use a rom from the g900f or is a diffrent one for my version?

It's strongly not recommended to use other version's firmware...brick...

NO! You will brick your phone. It has to be for the g901f. Simply look around the forums. Search for your specific model and you'll find the rom you're looking for. Here is a link for a KitKat firmware called SimpleGX Rom for your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-simplegx-rom-v1-0-0-t2971815

Doubts 900f & 900m

I have a doubt , I wonder if I can get the site 900F firmware SamMobile apply on my 900m. So I live in Brazil and here we 900m devices and have almost no custom rom for our devices . Its I turn my phone on a 900F ? I have another doubt , if I install a custom ROM based on 4.4.4 cm then I can install any 5.0 based ROM on top of that version ? Galaxy s5 SM-G900M Stock ROM :crying:
Version M is compatible with the CM11 and CM12 nightlies being made here (at the Unified Development section). Here in Chile we also got the 900M (codename "klteub"), and I have tried those ROMs with no problem. There's no need to convert your device to another model.
so you mean that the codename of the device as SM- G900M is the klteub ? I need to do root to install CWM or TWRP ? or can I install recovery without the need to root? Can you show me what is the link to the custom recovery 900M .

[Q]

I have a Galaxy S4 i9505 and I'm running an android 5.0 rom, I'm wondering if I flash an android 5.0 modem made for the S5, will it work on my phone? Also, are there any modems currently available for the i9505 on android 5.0? Thanks in advance
Hi,
Do not install modem from S5 on your device! They have different hardware! That means there's no compatibility between the 2 modems. Check the Modem thread for all modems out there that are downloadable.

Also worth mentioning I'm using a KitKat modem (I9505XXUFNB8) while using CM12 (Android 5.0.2) ROM.
All the best,

[Q] Confused in flashing -- having a brand new s5 5.0.0

Hi there
before i start i want to say that i m not new in flashing but only with my samsung note2... it´s now the day my girlfriend got it´s new s5.
Device: S5 , SM-G900F
Android Version: 5.0.0
Base: G900FXXU1BNL9
Build: LRX21T.G900FXXU1BNL9
KNOX: 2.3
i want to install her a better Rom then the Stock because i think every Custom Rom is better then the stock´s.
i read in so many threats that i first have to downgrade to 4.4.2 then root, then flash 5.0 version.
I couldnt find (maybe i m blind) a tutaorial with my pre-conditions (BNL9) and towelroot what i ve read is not compatibel.
Do i really have to downgrade, upgrade to stock pre-rooted and then flash a custom Rom ( i think about flashing Alliance http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2716535 )
Please tell me if you have any sources for me with the BNL9 and what i can make.

Yes, but you will have to reflash the lollipop firmware one second time if the flashing method don't update the bootloader.

unroot galaxy s3 neo

Hi friends, I'm a beginner of this forum.
I am using samsung s3 neo i9300i device running in android 4.4.4. The baseband version is i9300ixxuboi1.
On last month I rooted this device with TWRP recovery file. Now I want to unroot my device. For that purpose, I searched the samsung web but I couldn't find the actual baseband version Stock Rom file. If I flash other s3 neo's baseband Firmware, instead of exact version, is it occur any damage?
Give solution. .... Help me. ......
Do you mean you want original firmware from sammobile? Probably the firmware is updated that's why you won't get the exact version. Just look for a firmware for your model and for you region and flash.

I have tried so many firmwares with different regions and basebands. And i haven't have any problem.
Just try to download a firmware for your region ( for your country or for neighbourhood countries ) and flash it through odin.
