Change verizon rom to international rom

Hi people,
Can i flash international rom on a Verizon galaxy S5?
If yes, how can it be done?
Thanks!
To install international G900F rom, must be bootloader unlocked:
Same way as flashing a normal kltevzw/G900V rom, find a klte/G900F rom and flash it. Any incompatibility warnings are probably outdated, but be careful, and remember, you can't make too many backups.
Just know that you won't be able to use CDMA networks (Verizon is CDMA).
To enable 4G/Phone service in other countries, works with locked bootloader:
You're stuck with the G900V rom. If you're just looking to get support for extra bands in other countries, look into GalaxyTools by Idoneapps. It can give you international support on most existing roms, stock or not. Kinda hard to use but you'll get used to it.
Both methods will most likely require some APN settings modifications.
If your cat suddenly gets eaten or you need clarification, I'd be glad to help.
(You weren't too clear on your request - I didn't know if you wanted an international rom or international support, so I tried to include both.)
I have G900V model but I do not have verizon services in my country. I wanted to get rid of verizon rom as it's of no use to me. Therefore I was looking for a intrenational varient. I am running MM6.0.1 with rooted and bootloader unlocked. Will flashing a G900F rom again lock the bootloader.
How to proceed withave the process. Please help.

Flashing international Firmware

Hello everyone,
yesterday, a family member gifted me an s7 from the USA (SM-G930P). He bought the phone off SPRINT as a SPRINT unlocked version, and, of course, because I live in Europe and want to use the phone with a European SIM card I have the "hands free activation" mark that is sitting on the top left edge of the display. I also noticed some changes, for example the "mobile data" toggle is nowhere to be found and also I don't have the options to choose the network mode (2G/3G/4G). I love the phone and I also would like to keep using it, I only need some answers from you guys.
My first question is, if the phone will actually let me use 4G network with my European SIM card, or will I be limited to 3G?
My second question is, If I can flash an international firmware for another carrier and another country on the phone, and if so, will I have the advantages of that firmware, like the Mobile Data Toggle??
Thank you very much for your answers.
If you install the 'Network' app you might be able to change the network type.
In general you should be able to use an unlocked P variant with a foreign SIM but you may have to activate with a Sprint SIM first.
You can't flash the international version since it's Exynos and the P version is Qualcomm CPU.
I am not sure if this model has Samsung region lock which is another thing to consider.
If I was you I would try to flash the U firmware (US unlocked) as it has the most support for international 4G bands among the Qualcomm US models. It also doesn't have all of the Sprint bloatware on it.

Thank you for your reply. I am currently using the European Sim from my carrier and I have no problems with it. I managed to get rid of the Bloatware by using Package Disabler Pro, but it still sits there somewhere on my phone. So far, the phone is working very well and other than the bloat sitting on my memory and the lack of LTE, I have no complaints.
Can you tell me if someone has tried to flash the U firmware on a P model with success?

Could you tell me how you did it, or link me a guide??
I had bought an unlocked Sprint galaxy S7 (930P) off ebay which died on me. Got it repaired from the service center and they sent me a locked device instead. The phone is currently on Software Version - G930PVPS4BQC1 and the hardware revision is Rev 0.6. I'll be using the phone in India and have a few questions.
1. I need to get this SIM unlocked from a service online. Does anyone know of a reliable place to do so?
2. If I flash the U Rom on it after unlocking it, will I lose the unlock? (I don't mind downgrading from Nougat to Marshmallow)
3. Should I unlock first then flash the ROM or flash the ROM first and then try to get it unlocked?
4. Will flashing the ROM directly unlock the phone itself?
Please advise.
...
you could try gsm zambia to unlock your phone it works i tried it myself a few days ago, also after my phone got unlocked i flash the U firmware/rom and the unlocked remained. so you should unlock your device first then flash the U firmware :good:
PS. if you one nougat better to downgrade if you can do marshmallow so when you wont have any issues flashing to U firmware. :cool

Firmware swap

I just bought the Verizon s7 edge at best buy for a good deal. However I am a tmobile customer. The people at tmobile were unable to get the phone to work with tmobile. So I went back to best buy to get my money back. The guy at best buy laughed.. he inserted the Sims card created a tmobile access in the settings and now it works with tmobile..cool...but...everyone my phone restarts I get the msg the Sims is not a Verizon sims..
Could I use Odin and flash the tmobile firmware and my phone still work? And recieve tmobile ota''s?
Mine does it to with att I just swipe it away because it dont effect anything
I don't know if you can flash a t mobile firmware, but you can flash a G935U firmware, once you flash U firmware you'll get noticed that all Verizon junk will gone, including that ****ing notification of Verizon SIM..
PD: I have a S7 Edge (G935V) with G935U firmware using a Mexican Carrier, BTW sorry for my bad english
Thanks for the help guys.. I guess I will just try and see once the official nugut comes out..
I will flash the T-Mobile and see what happens..
Worst I would have to do is reflash the official Verizon back on it..

Flashing unlocked U1 Firmware on Verizon SM-G975U

Hello! I've been out of the Android scene for a few years so I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer to by searches.
Can I flash the unlocked U1 firmware to a Verizon S10+ and use it on AT&T? I know I'll lose VoLTE and WiFi calling, but I don't really care about those. Mainly, I'm just trying to see if I can use a Verizon S10+ on AT&T. Ideally, I'd like to flash the AT&T firmware on the device but from what I've gathered, that firmware isn't available yet.
I had a Galaxy S8+ when it came out and I used Odin to flash between U1 and AT&T firmware so the process isn't entirely new to me.
A bit of background:
I'm looking to jump off of the dead iPhone train and hop back into Android with the S10+. I'm currently trying to sell/trade my iPhone XS Max in order to make the switch.
I have someone who is willing to trade me their Black S10+ for my iPhone as an even trade but their S10+ is from Verizon. It's unlocked but it's still running the stock Verizon firmware.
I just want to know what I have to do with this trade in order for it to work for me. I want to make sure I get a phone I can use. Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for any help!
I'm not entirely sure if this will work on the S10+, I haven't tried it yet, but when I had the S8+(it was from Verizon as well), I'd take it internationally with a different sim card, it would just prompt me to reboot the phone and it would automatically apply the appropriate CSC settings. I was on stock VZW firmware as well and VoLTE worked (wifi calling didnt).
You should be fine either way though, people have successfully flashed the U1 firmware on their VZW devices for the S10+, so you shouldn't have any issues getting your AT&T sim card to work on it.
Edit: link to get the U1 firmware

I wish Samsung included the BYOD update in the S10+, that would make it so much easier. I think I'm just gonna make the trade.
I've read through that thread and that's what I think I'm going to do. I'd much rather flash the AT&T version, but seeing as how it's not available, the U1 will do fine until it's released. I'll just need to switch to a different voicemail service in the meantime. lol
I got a Verizon S10+ and it is running build PPR1.180610.011.G975USQS2ASGB, I have confirmed that putting an AT&T SIM gives me network ability to call and what not. I want to flash the stock U1 branded firmware, is it okay if I flash G975U1UEU1ASD8 with Odin?

HEY I know have the same problem... Does it work.., I have installed the firmware and all so should I go for it.., waiting for your reply
I have Verizon unlocked phone and I'm able to use internationally where there is no Verizon, but I'm not getting updates so I have downloaded latest firmware should I flash it, also now I don't need any Verizon sim after flashing right ?
Yes you can flash U1 firmware to a U device and vica versa. The U means Universal, so you can flash AT&T, Verizon, T-mobile, or unlocked firmware to it. You gotta use the patched version of Odin though.

As Just changing csc without installing the system is more than enough. Even the company logo changes. Just look for the samkey program and you will see

Latest firmware/ROM to use for Verizon on Tmobile S7E (root preferred)

I have an old Tmobile S7E on old ass firmware (Android 7.0 BQE1) and it's already rooted. I just went through Tmobiles Device Unlock process and I believe the phone was unlocked successfully. I'm looking to upgrade to the latest firmware that still allows rooting. I've looked through the Custom Roms threads and can't tell which one is the latest. I am also wondering if I need to use Verizon firmware or stay on Tmobile firmware.
For instance, this thread here: by jrkruse, he mentions to another user in the comments "This one or verizon one? This one just has the Tmobile csc stuff added and a build.prop for gsm carriers thats it" so it made me wonder if I'm using Verizon service but it's a Tmobile phone if this would work. I know Verizon is CDMA so him saying gsm carriers made me think it may not work.
I know this device is old and this thread doesn't get browsed as much anymore so hopefully I can get some answers. If I can't get this working I guess I'll just be getting a new 2020 model phone :highfive:
Thanks guys!
