G900a and g900f - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry if too off topic but my g900f died, I bought what was told was another g900f but it arrived g900a. I want to load cm14 as I had on my g900f. Is process, cm version etc the same for g900a as for the g900f?

Only keep modem and bootloader of your model
maybe your phone has a locked bootloader

Seems like can't use cyanogenmod on g900a, right?

Thanks. Seems like some people load the 900a with other custom roms. But they all seem like TouchWiz. Does that mean that there are some alternatives for the 900a?

Thats not exactly how it works lol, its still an att variant so the bootloader is locked, so the answer is no.

Nope, not as far as I know.

[Q] AT&T S5 help

So I tried to flash a ROM and rebooted and now it says "System software not authorized by AT&T has been found on your phone. Please turn off your phone and go to the nearest AT&T store for help." How can I resolve this issue without going to AT&T? I also want to unroot while i'm at it.
Go to the att s5 section, theres an unbrick file you can odin there. Just for future reference, g900a(att s5) has a locked bootloader, so no cm/aosp/aokp/etc, only touchwiz based and you have to be careful with what you post thats not a rom built for the att s5.

yeah in setting it always said g900f but when I went in recovery it said g900a, I don't think I will be getting lollipop ever. The phone isn't fake but it's weird.

Thats not even att firmware is the weirder part, so why is it goving you the att error message thing about unauthorized firmware. I would tell you to just treatbit like it is a g900a and flash that firmware woth the methods or whatever, you dont even have g900a firmware though, so im kinda at a loss here.

I actually want to know if it's a g900a or a g900f

g935f firmware of g935a

Im new to the samsung scene but i know on my htc m9 the att model and the international model had all the same hardware and we were able to flash all the roms and kernals and everything the international /unlocked model could, would that be the same on the att s7 edge?

On the M9 you had to be bootloader unlocked though. Ours are locked. Closest thing you have here is flashing 935U firmware in this forum.

Samsung SM-G900F Drammer exploit

Hi there. After much fuss all around the internet I decided to ask here - what about this phone, will it work, what about Knox? Found this https://www.reddit.com/r/Android/co...mmer_bitflips_to_root_android_phones/d9565xf/ on Moto forum, anyone tried it?
I tied it on g900v no go
Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
So guess no new development to this phone. I mean one that does not trip KNOX counter :/ This phone is dead ;/
There is a way to have root and bootloader unlock with both lines in Odin being official still
Be on the factory img firmware available on gem flash .com firmware and it is called combination .......
Under g900v
Then root using kingroot and bootloader unlock using getex bootloader unlock method for g900v kk - mm I used the adb method the thread is on xda under s5 Verizon section
