I have a Verizon N900V with a cracked and broken digitizer. I've been watching on eBay for a compatible donor phone for parts. I've seen that Verizon and Sprint motherboards are interchangeable but I'm not sure about other models. The other models I've looked at are N900T, N900A and N9006. I know the Digitizer itself is the same for all models but I'm watching for a complete phone with bad ESN or one with just the motherboard and possibly USB board removed. My concern is that the N900V motherboard will not work with these models.

Only Possible different between N900V & N9005 (for example) can be modem!
But all other part are same 100%
Good afternoon, all right?
I have a Samsung S5 SM-G900H that burned the motherboard (short EMMC in memory). Knowing that he is a Exynos Octa Core, is I change all the motherboard by another one G900M? I'm from Brazil, I would have 4G and Android versions for my country.
thanks

I also know that his setting changes (IMEI, processor, etc.). But analyzing the two plates, all connections are equal .. The peripherals are supported?
Hey guys, I purchased a N910C which ended up meeting a grim fate but they mainboard was still working fine * tested it on a friends 910c chassis. My question is with the variant with Exynos vs Qualcomm will there be any issue ( service and connection ) with installing a Exynos N910c motherboard on a ATT N910A chassis?
** I am aware the N910C is missing a band for ATT but just wondering of any faults since they are both GSM models.
Thanks in Advance.

All note 4 variants are built on the same size chassis. As long as you use all N910C modules, there won't be any issues after installing the motherboard on the N910A chassis-any variant in this regards.
I understand if If swap everything out it will work. I am speaking of the situation where the mainboard is swapped and nothing else. So N910C mainboard and N910A everything.
That is my concern.

I know this answer is old, but yes, the phone itself will still work, with the exception of anything camera-related, since the Exynos variant uses Samsung's ISOCELL sensor, while the SD805 ones use Sony's. Which means you'll have to replace the camera sensor too if you want a fully-functional Note 4. Learned that the hard way with my AT&T Note 4, using motherboard taken from the N910S variant.
I just put a 910f mainboard in an att chasis and everything works great so far
Hey folks. Just got my S4 I337M back from sending it away with Rogers for repair. I was foolish and didn't think about how I flashed it previously, so it got sent back not fixed, with the paperwork claiming mainboard failure. I'm more than happy to fix this privately, but I'd like to shop around for the part myself. Problem is that the price is very inconsistent between provider brandings. Is there a difference between them at all, so long as it isn't a mini or value edition or whatever other branding? I just want to get the cheapest fix available for this thing so I can cost out the difference to just getting a new phone. Thanks for any info.
Then you are better off buying a phone with a busted screen and just replace the motherboard.
Do take into account that some providers lock the bootloaders. Also take into account that the S4 variants all not all the same, so not every motherboard might fit in perfectly.

Not to be ungrateful, but this only rephrases my initial question. I'm aware that there are several variants and that there are several methods of acquiring the board, either new or from a busted phone. My question is which boards wouldn't be compatible with the I337M variant.

You are changing the whole board, not just one small part from the board. This includes the ram, processor, internal memory and such, right?
So the only incompatibility issues there may be are the frame and board sizes. Theoretically you can put any other S4 board in there (as long as you change the whole motherboard and daughter board).
But I doubt there is any way to tell which fits in what, unless you try it.
Just get one from another I337M is my suggestion. Hope this is somewhat more clearer now.
There are two options for an s4 from a Canadian carrier: sgh-i337m (Telus, Rogers, Bell) or sgh-m919 (Wind, Videotron).
For the i337m, it does not matter which carrier sold the phone as the hardware is identical and ROMs from sammobile.com for the i337m can be cross flashed among carriers. The only difference is the pre-installed apps. I have a Telus s4 (came with 4.4.2) that I flashed with Bell 5.01 firmware. Same applies to the Wind/Videotron version of the s4.
In the i337m and m919, there are connections for USB flex cable, cameras, headphone jack, LCD, and wi-fi cable. No other boards that I noticed.
If you want a motherboard with a busted screen, check out Kijiji or craigslist. Just make sure the imei has not been blacklisted, and the wifi and sim reader work.

There's plenty of ways to tell, like asking someone with a working knowledge of these devices, which is why I'm on this forum. To learn and apply. Speculation isn't useful.

i did it with Note 4 n910v to n910f. went well. S7 might have similar boards. Check pics and disassembly videos to get an idea.
They look the same but the connectors might be different. I'm swapping from a Verizon board yo an att board yo solve a problem and I was wondering about the f swap as well.
