Model Number Confusion in Note 4 - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I recently purchased a second hand galaxy note 4. In settings menu, model number is showing sm-g910f. But in download mode, model number is sm-g910k! Is there any solution for this?
And also my private mode doesn't work. Every time I click on it, settings gets crashed. Plz help me.
Thanks in Advance

The model number in setting can be changed/edited, to be anything. The model number in download mode is the real one. You can confirm it by taking out the battery and look at the sticker inside the phone.
Just so you know N910F has Snapdragon, where N910K has Exynos.

Definitely it's an refurbished note 4 N910K SK telecom korean model and probably faked by N910C software on it and the sticker behind battery is fake too.
And i highly doubt the screen display is not original that's why it has issues and god knows what else is not original inside of phone so if you got any warranty return it as soon as possible because refurbished phones are made by chinese companies they buy damaged phones then replaced whatever damaged inside "definitely not original of course"
then they put a brand new body housing so its looks like new then same goes to box and other stuff.
When you are in download mode whatever model shows there that is correct motherboard model.

Flashing problem

Please I have Samsung galaxy Note 4 that is running a custom rom. I want to return it to stock rom but I have problem identifying whether it is n910f or N910p. In the about phone section it is n910f but in download mode it says N910p. Also when I check for information using the imei check it says it is N910pzwespr. Can anyone help me find a way to ascertain the model number?
Look under your battery, it will have it on the sticker.
If download mode refers to the model as the 910p, it's a 910p.
Download mode isn't changed with the ROM.

What Is My Model Number?

My brother got this S7 Edge on used market, so no box or anything. I don't live in the US but there's Verizon logo on the back of the phone. I don't know why but the phone is a bit laggy, so I wanted to flash a custom rom. Unfortunately I couldn't find any guide to flash TWRP for this phone as most guide are for Exynos models only.
Another thing is, according to about phone, my model number is SM-G935F, build number NRD90M.G935FXXU1BQB7 but CPUZ says my model is SM-G935T. Are this two model the same? Is it possible to root and flash TWRP on this phone without using CROM?

Boot to download mode there it will show you the real model number. The model number in about phone can be faked using build.prop and is therefore not always real

How can I know the original variant/models of the 2nd hand Note 4?

I have no idea in this situation. Anyone can help me?
I bought a second-hand Samsung galaxy note 4. The seller told me that is n910f and also shown in the Setting, About device
But the problem is I can't update from lollipop android 5.1.1 to android 6.0.1 marshmallow officially
The seller do not accept return goods so that I can't get the money back.
As I know the process of N910F should be Qualcomm Snapdragon 805
But I use cpu-z app to check the phone which is not n910f , the processor of that phone is Exynos Octa 5433 , the bootloader is N910SKSU2COL1 and the label behind the phone after remove the battery is N910A ?
How can I know the original variant of this phone, plz help
which stock rom,bootloader and modem I should flash ?
Should I follow the label behind the phone?

I highly doubt it's an AT&T model N910A with fake N910F software.
Most sellers they modify the software because N910F has more demand in market then usa models because N910F has more 4g/LTE bands and fully unlocked variant.
You can still update to marshmallow with N910A firmware but there are some disadvantages such as
1 No multi languages
2 Lot of At&t apps bloatware
3 Apn settings for sim card data you have to set manually.
4.no data toggle in quick toggles.
5.no software updates unless you have AT&T sim card.
This is the 6.0.1 marshmallow firmware link for N910A

If you want to know the correct model just turn off the phone and go to odin download mode.
Press 3 button all together for 5 seconds ( volume down button+home buttun+power button) until it shows warning screen then press volume up .
In download mode you will see the motherboard original model SM-N910 on top left corner.
Same as in picture below.
