Boot into download to see the motherboard's real model #. Where did you get the phone? As far as I know, it is not possible to flash an n900p ROM to an n9005 as the n900p is a CDMA phone.

Under the battery its a SM-N9005 and the in the Version is a SM-N900P the phone is not mine its for a friend

Download mode is where you will find the real model #. The label under the battery and model # in the ROM are not 100% accurate, especially if the phone was not a new purchase.
It is very easy to disassemble a note3 and switch motherboards.

At the download mod its an n900p but the label says n9005 is that normal ?

No, this is not normal. Looks like the body/screen is from an n9005 and the motherboard is from n900p. If you boot into the ROM and dial *#06# to get the imei, the imei probably won't match the imei on the label.
Was this phone a used or new purchase? If it was new, I would take it back and complain because Samsung does not mix motherboards and labels.

its a used phone and there is no imei

You mean there is no imei when you dial *#06# on the phone keypad? It says "null" or "unknown"?

yeah null imei when i dial *06#

If you cannot return the phone for a refund, I recommend flashing a stock n900p ROM from sammobile.com. Hopefully, flashing will restore the imei.

Well to answer this quick. Just make sure you have an EFS backup before you do anything. if something goes wrong you could always restore you EFS and have your IMEI restored.
Just flash it with a same region as your phone is.
Don't use a UK Firmware on the Hong Kong version phone.

Did you do something that caused the IMEI to changed?
Or maybe it is due to refurbished phone?
My my app Phone INFO > Menu > Refurbishment Check to see what does it show?
IMEI 000 restore your backed up EFS folder .

what note 3 do I have? N900P or N9005

I bought a phone from ebay that was advertised as n9005
when I bought it the firmware seemed to show that it was n9005
I rooted it with towel root and flashed x-note 18.
now when I look at the phone info app I see the info in the attached
screenshots
it says that the bootloader is n900pvpucnc5 and that the hardware revision is n900p.12
Does this mean I have bought the Sprint hardware?
I want to upgrade to android 5 and 6 but I don't want to flash the wrong bootloader and modem for the phone
TIA for your help here.
I would want to look at the motherboard .Or check under the battery .

Thanks JJEgan
I checked under the battery and it says that I have an N9005 (see attached photo)
The IMEI matched up with the one when I dial a code so it looks pretty legit.
So now I'm thinking at some point in the phone's life an n900p bootloader/modem has been flashed to show up the info in my OP.
Now have to decide if it is safe to flash a n9005 bootloader/modem.
I'm still feeling cautious.

I just tried my imei in http://www.samsungwarrantycheck.com
and it came up with model SM-N900PZKESPR
so maybe that sticker behind the battery is a fake?
The sticker is probably fake even though the IMEI on the label matches the imei in the phone.

Since the imei is all zeros, you've already lost the imei.
Can you return the phone to the seller or ask the seller for the phone imei? You may have to take the phone to a repair shop to have them reprogram the imei.

You just need to program the IMEI. I don't think the serial # will matter.
Can you send the phone back to the seller?

Model has changed from SGH I337 to GT I9500

I have Galaxy S4. It's model was SGH i337 before it was repaired. Now its model has changed to GT I9500 but the cpu is Qulcomm Snapdragon 600.
my question is can I install custom ROM if YES than for which model?
Boot into download to confirm the model #. Can't change model #s in download mode unless you change the motherboard.
In Download mode it says "SPH L20T"

In Download mode it says "SPH L20T". I'm really confused.
The motherboard inside is an sph-L20T which is a sprint s4: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4-sprint
Did you confirm the model number in download mode before giving it to the repair shop?

No, I didn't confirm the model in download mode but in settings it was SGH I337.
Model number shown in settings can be alerted.
Does the IMEI in the phone (disk *#06#) match the IMEI on the label under the battery?
Did you make note of the IMEI before you brought it in for repair?
Where did you get the phone?

No the IMEI is not same.
No I did not make note before repair.
I bought this as a used phone.
Seems to me like it is a phone that was put together with parts from different phones.
The sgh-i337 is the s4 from AT&T.
The gt-i9500 was never sold in the USA.
The L720T was used by Sprint in the USA.
When flashing ROMs, you need to use instructions for the sprint s4.
