Check what it says the model is in download mode, probably is the G900P

Hello,
the Sticker under the Battery says SM-G900F
the Download Mode says SM-G900P
the Device Model says SM-G900F
The Baseband and Bootloader says G900PVPU3BOG1

Phone is G900P

sorry, but my question was is it possible to flash the 900f bootloader an modem?

No, it's not a G900F

i bought the phone from a official vendor,

Hello again, I tried to flash the newest G900F and it faild.
then i tried to flash the newest g900P an it works.
But now the main question.
I bought that phone in germany as g900f and of course i believe its a g900p
ist it possible to switch between F / P ?
cause if its not possible i could complain the vendor
i think the vendor will say "you root the phone - you did that"
thank you for the answers

No, you were sold a G900P under the false pretence it was the G900F
You are not alone, many places are doing the same thing to get rid of unwanted models by labelling them as G900F, even changing parts of the firmware, stickers, box etc to say G900F
Download mode never lies, it can not be changed
Next time you buy an S5, check download mode first

Hello! I have a problem with my S5, I can not determine which version is, in configurations says G900F, on the label of the part where the battery goes, says G900H, and the Download mode said to be the G900T. I tried to install the 4.4.2 for G900F and Odin says "Fail! (Auth)", I tried Lollipop for G900F and got the same results, any suggestions?

First, download this and install and grant root permissions then tell me what it says on the "Knox Warranty Void".

It says 0*1...!!
Unless you made a backup of your EFS partition, AFAIK your IMEI is lost
Unlock will remain unlocked

Flashing stock G900F firmware on my G900P S5?

Hi! I've been searching all over the internet for any way to do this, until I got to the point in which I'm not sure it's even possible.
So I finally decided to ask here.
Is there any way I can flash a stock G900F firmware (more specifically, one of the ILO's versions since I live in Israel) on my SM-G900P?
During my search I've come across pit files, csc codes, firmwares, adb and whatnot. I can't make any sense out of it any more.
I've searched this entire post and found nothing that works for me.
I have tried every method that I could, but it just won't cut it.
Every time when I try to flash the European PIT file or the general G900F PIT file or the ILO (android 5.0) stock firmware, I get a security check error.
When it's the rom, I get security check: aboot. When it's the PIT file I'm trying to flash I get security check: PIT.
Some say you can't flash G900x roms on a G900y phone. Some say you can. I'm very confused, I have no idea what to do, and my
stock G900P firmware is giving me some issues (let alone not being in my native language).
My sister bought this phone for me, and it had an Hebrew option, but it was running a firmware far from a stock one.
It also had many problems and bugs and freezes, so I changed the firmware to match the model. Can anyone help me, please??
Hi

My problem is the default G900P firmware. Even on the latest PVPU3CPCA
running Marshmallow 6.0.1, the phone itself ignores calls sometimes and notifactions.
Yesterday I got a call without my phone ringing at all. It didn't show there was an unanswered call.
I get disconnections and many other problems, even with the default firmware.
This is why I ask if I can change my default firmware, or just give up on my phone.
Note: I've managed to install 5.0.1 Lollipop default firmware (BOK4) and install Cyanogenmod 12 for my model. It is working but the call ignores and disconnections and the notifcations ignores still persist. Should I just give up and sell my phone?

Try other country firmware, there may be bugs that came by default with your country firmware
Try to clean install firmware by going to recovery and clear cache and data
No you can't flash stock firmware for a different model S5
Thanks for the reply. I guess I'll flash my stock G900P Marshmallow firmware.
I will however, change my mobile network supplier, and report here the results.
It could be a compatibility issue with Samsung.

I have used TWRP to factory reset and reset data. Afterwards I flashed a stock
G900P (lollipop, I believe) firmware which I got from Sammobile.
Then my device updated to G900PVPU3CPE1 using OTA update.
I did already try all of the 4 variants (unknown and Sprint), all had these issues with them.
Note: I used to have G900PVPU3CPCA. Now it is CPE1. Not sure how this will effect anything.
I have relative problem but in my case the phone give two different version whith phone checking by 1234 it say it's G900F model AP:G900FXXU1BOC1, CP:G900FXXU1BOC7, CSC:G900FITV1BOC1 but when I check with phone info apk all information is for G900P I ready try to update to MM6 with G900P stock firmware and then the phone IMEI changed to 9....serie after when I restaure the backup ROM the phonegive now many issues like COMEBACK and MENU KEYS don't work, when I receive a call the phone restart and camera don't work if sameone have solution , I thanks in advance
dont flash a tar.md5 on your G900P thats for another variant, it could hard brick your device. The problem youre having with missing calls isnt from the firmware. Are you not using it on sprint anymore? I saw your mention of Hebrew on it which leads me to think that youre using it outside of the US, if thats the case, the phone is entirely capable of using non-US GSM carriers, I used mine in Romania and Bulgaria this summer with zero issue.

All the information is here, read
Whatever model it says in download mode is the correct model, the rest are faked to sell a different model phone as a more popular one
now what to do to make it working like before on GSM
I live in Ghana. I bought my Galaxy s5 from a store. Obviously they said it is brand new. I went back to office and tried updating to marshmallow and I was informed that the phone has been changes in an unauthorized way so I should download the update via kids or smartswitch.
Mind you, the phone came with a firmware for model g900f (I couldn't write down the firmware details since I did not know what they meant then). I thought it was a firmware error so I wanted to upgrade manually, and when I booted to download mode I rather found the model to be a g900p.
After flashing back to g900p I cannot flash back to g900f because the phone is inactivated even though I use a high speed wifi, I cannot access lots of functions like find my samsung.
I know there is a way to flash back to g900f. Please help me and my friend up there. Thank you
guys, you can use a g900p in countries outside of the USA. I just did that less than 6 months ago (Romania and Bulgaria). What errors are you getting when you pop the sim card in? Is youre device rooted with a custom recovery? what ROM and baseband are you on? Certain ROMs only need you to run the SSU.apk to unlock the global capability of it. Also, idoneapps.com is a place you can go to fully unlock the device. @idone and @Nodial are the forum moderators over there and they are likely the smartest guys in the room
---------- Post added at 12:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:27 PM ----------
also, idoneapps.com charges $35 for their unlock service, but if youre at a dead end, its a price worth paying. Ive unlocked both of my G900Ps thru them, and their work is flawless

Problem with OTA update, my S4 cant find latest updates (GT-I9505)

I have problem with OTA updates, my S4 cant find update for Lollipop 5.0.1, i tryed with flashing stock rom in odin, but i received a message; Nand Write FAILED. My current version is 4.4.4. Please help me !!!
Did you try using the original Samsung USB cable? Did you try other USB cables and USB ports? What file is Odin failing to write to the phone?
Trajko03
I think aboot and NAND Write Failed
If I'm not mistaken, only the T-Mobile S4 got Android 4.4.4. Everyone else in the family from what I recall skipped that version and went straight to 5.0.1. Could you please verify your model number by entering download mode?
If the model number is an I9505, install Phone Info from the Play Store, run it, and provide us with your AP, PDA, and CSC.
Stopping at the aboot file leads me to believe that the rom doesn't match the phone or the bootloader in the phone is too new.

Install a custom ROM. Your device is not an international (GT-I9505) model but a T-Mobile device. The SGH-M919 is the only Galaxy S4 model - other than models offered by Straight Talk - to not be upgraded to Android 5.0.1. Odin fails because the ROMs you're attempting to install are not for your device. There are no OTA updates because the update path stopped at the version of Android you currently have.
Stock sgh-m919n ROMs are here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-M919N/

...i must root my phone and unlock my bootloader or my phone(T-Mobile) will get lollipop???
Your bootloader isn't locked. However, installing a custom recovery, which is needed to install a custom ROM, will trip Knox. After 3-1/2 years however, tripping Knox is no longer an issue as there is no warranty left on the device.
The custom ROM you install will likely be pre-rooted, so Android Pay and Pokémon Go are out; neither of which is a big deal.

Installing g900f official rom on g9006v

Hey everyone
summary :
how can i install a rom file for sm-g900f on sm-g9006v ? with altering the rom file or my phone.
notes:
-they have exactly the same hardware but one is china version
-phone originally had android 5.0 and every where on its back and case says its g900f
the phones ''about device'' said g900f too
full version :
i bought a s5 (g900f) a couple of years back, but it didnt receive the 6.0.1 update like others, so now i decided to update it manually using odin.
but in download mode its version was g9006v
so i found the android 6.0.1 rom for it and installed it using odin
but unfortunately it doesnt have any of the google services and has a couple of system apps that cant be deleted of disabled and they are draining the battery.
so now i want to go back to international 5.0 or 6.0.1
considering that both versions have the same hardware and that somehow it had g900f rom on it before
i was wondering how could i adjust my phone or the rom file (tar) to install it.
thank you for ur help
here is my email:
