Hi there I have a doubt about the product name of my phone I have the F variant which is kltexx but I rooted my phone and I changed to kltespr and unrooted it later I wanted to root again and I realise that I changed the product name the question is can I root with the kltexx file or I have to download the kltespr to root my phone?
Boot in download mode and write the model number. That is the only sure way of knowing your model number.

I tried and in download mode doesn't say anything about model number in recovery is and appears kltexx klte but in phone info appears kltespr klte that's my doubt
Try to flash a klte rom. It should work. I can use klte, spr g900f
You've 'fooled' it to be a different model on the software side so that you can install apps which you normally can't but the hardware won't change. It's a klte and always will be even if the software says it's something else. If it used to say klte when you bought it then that's what it is

this is driving me bunkers. so i buy an unlocked i9500 in eBay from hongkong and everywhere on the box and on the phone itself it says i9500
but in download mode it shows up as SGH-i337 and also upon using the phone (stock) it randomly asks me to sync my AT&T contacts.
the SIM card that i used is not even AT&T. and also my attempt to install CWM via odin failed.

I guess your phone is not genuine.
it might have been packed in different package.
maybe.

you mean its not samsung made? as in its a chinese fake? lol i dont think so. it just looks too normal for that
You have an i337. It's simple as that. You have probably a rom installed that's based on a i9500 rom. So nothing to worry, you just need to look in the i337 section.

i did just now, it says its a i9500
ok this is just bizzare. so installing PHONE INFO SAMSUNG i get these:
phone model: i9500
device type: jflteatt
product name: jflteuc
boot loader version: i337ucuemk2
pda version: i9500xxuemj9

once you are sure (check also what FW version you have) you can flash I9500 cwm with odin.
Odin has nothing to do with what is already installed. (expected your drivers are well installed). CWM can be pushed in.
If download mode says that you have an i337 then you have an i337.

It seems you have a true I337 because of the bootloader infos but all the rest is messed up with tricks done by former owners.
So you must reflash a stock I337 fw to refresh everything. get it from sammobile site.
edit :
ro.product.model=SAMSUNG-SGH-I337
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=jflteuc
ro.product.device=jflteatt
These are correct infos telling that your phone is a good I337 model.

hi same problem
hi i have same poblem here and i can't use download mode to instal lolipop official or any ohter rom any solution u get there
As mentioned upthread, if the model number posted in Download Mode is SGH-I337, you have an AT&T Galaxy S4. Because of this, you will want to look in the AT&T Galaxy S4 forums for ROMs regarding your device. Unless you have no other alternative, I do not recommend installing AT&T firmware on the phone. If you do install AT&T firmware, it will work, but it will also update the bootloader to a version that disallows rooting and custom ROMs.
Ideally, you want to get your money back from whomever sold you the phone. Frankenphones are nothing but trouble.

that actually wont work. you cant flash a stock rom on these . i tried the appropriate hong kong firmware and an i337 firmware. they just fail.
^ exactly
my friend had a phone like this. bootloader was t mobile, but wouldnt install rom using odin
I flashed cm11 for GPE and and baseband modem from m919 using cwm and it finally worked
I think these phones are made using working parts from different phones
Hello. I'm using Samsung galaxy S5 and want to upgrade it manually. In the Settings>About, the model number appears to be SM-G900F, but when i set the phone into Download Mode, it shows SM-G900P. So, which firmware exactly do i have to load on the phone? that of SM-G900F or that of SM-G900P?

How can the phone model at the about section of my phone display SM-G900F while at the recovery and Odin mode it shows G900W8? How am I supposed to know the right model to flash if I want to upgrade the Android version from 4.4.2 to marshmallow?

Easiest way is to turn off the phone, take out the cover, remove battery and read the white label.
By the way, when I replied to your last post, it would have been polite to inform back if my suggestion was helpful or not.

Thanks for the reply. But how is it possible for different model software to be installed on a phone? All of the system applications show sm-g900w8 in Titanium backup and the label at the panel too shows sm-g900w8. My concern actually is if this is normal or the phone is just messed up. A quick analysis of the IMEI using the online IMEI analyser shows both sm-g900f and sm-g900w8 on the about section of the phone.
I'm sorry. I'm a bit new to this xda of a thing and the whole is a bit frustrating and overwhelming at times

As your phone is labelled - G900W8 what also is confirmed by the IMEI then no doubt what stock firmware you should flash. If "About the phone" info shows G900F it would mean that somebody meesed up by flashing different firmware (data from built.prop system file is used to display phone model in the settings).

Ok, but how do you explain the 'sm-g900f' showing at online IMEI analyser? When I checked the IMEI online, it was showing both g900f and g900w8. Here's a copy of the information obtained from IME info site about the phone's imei:
Information about your phone
Model: G900F Galaxy S5 (SM-G900W8)
Brand: SAMSUNG
IMEI: TAC: 352308 FAC: 06 SNR: 112738 CD: 8
In addition to this, here's what is also written on the same label that has sm-g900w8 as the phone's model:
IC: 649E-SMG900T
Making the third model that this ****ing phone has?

When I checked your IMEI on samsung IMEI checker it says: SM-G900W8.
Also, what is "IC" on your phone's label? I have following fields: "Model", "FCC ID", "SSN" etc. I don't have any "IC".

Infact, I don't know what that IC means too. Can I have the link to the Samsung IMEI checker? The website that showed up when I googled didn't display anything after entering the imei. The website nane is imeipro. Again, how could two websites show different information about an imei? imei.info shows the phone is both g900f and g900w8 but tend towards g900f in the details provided. Can someone even trust those imei sites?

To be honest you are digging too deep for this. I would just rely on what is written on the phone's label: "Model".
Here you have what I checked but I wouldn't rely on the checkers too much:
http://www.imeipro.info/samsung_imei_check.html
By the way if I were you I would remove the IMEI number from your previous post - it might be not safe to publish it.

What is your model? can be g950u, g950fd, g9500. What rom you flash with detail version? what previous rom installed in you s8?
You lost IMEI, you can restore by flash combination firmware that match with your model and latest firmware installed.

Download “Root Browser” from the “Downloads” section on your device. Open Root Browser app on your device. Head to the /efs folder located in the root of the device. In the /efs folder, delete everything except “FactoryApp” and “prov_data” folders. Do a Full Reboot of your device.

I'm sorry but it seems your imei lost forever that even combination file cant restore IMEI that stored in EFS. The only way is inject IMEI. There are 2 way to save your s8:
1. Go to Samsung service, they will ask you to change motherboard and inject your lost imei to new motherboard. No matter if your warranty has void, you can do that, but the price is high and can take time.
2. Go to local service store, they will inject your lost imei, it needs spesific box or software license. It is miles way of learning journey and i dont recommend you to learn it in quick. It is illegal to talk about it in xda since IMEI is unique identity of phone and can go wrong if inject other IMEI. Btw, it is hard to know if the box has the compability of your device since s8 snapdragon well known strict to developer. But google is your best friend.
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
