I am going to install lineage 14.1 and have rooted my phone with no real problems. The issue I am having is finding the proper variant of twrp for this phone. "TWRP for Samsung Galaxy S5 Qualcomm " is the closest I can find, but it lists these models as for that (SM-G900F, SM-G900W8, SM-G900T, SM-G900M, SM-G900P, SM-G900V, SM-G900I) I am worried that since mine is the sm-g870w there may be issues if I use it. I have looked on so many web pages my eyes just might start to bleed.....
Any help in the right direction would be appreciated.

Did you find anything, or any version which worked?

I am looking for an s5 that would support most custom roms available on xda. I ve seen so many models in the market, its really confusing. So far i ve ruled out 900 H/K/S.
What about the 900F and 900I? Are they KLTE devices?
How about you get on the right device page? This is for the LG NEXUS 5.
Wow that's embarrassing!
Hi guys. Been a long time since I've rooted a phone. To be honest, I think the One-X was the last phone I rooted. Anyways, I'm having some trouble, well confused.
I'd like to root my phone, just root. No other ROMs or anything but cannot seem to find a thread to satisfies my phone.
I have a S5 LTE-A, G906K currently on Android 5.0.1 and running lrx22x.g906kktu1bog2 .
But I cannot seem to find anything that matches the lrx22x.g906kktu1bog2 or is this not required and I can just flash using ODIN?
If possible, could you post links thanks.
Hey guys i have a straight talk variant of the galaxy s5 and in twrp recovery when attempting to flash a previous rom it said error this model is KLTE or something like that, i cant remember word for word but whats weird is that according to google the KLTE cyanogenmod is for the international version of the galaxy s5, so why is twrp saying my model is KLTE for? well anyways i then proceeded to go the the cyanogenmod download page and snagged the latest build for the "Galaxy s5 (KLTE)" and it installed on my phone without a hitch and in settings it now says my model changed from SM- S902L to SM-G900F. so will my network still work as it should? im in a town with very poor coverage so i cant test it at the moment. but since the model changed for some reason does that mean my sim should still work regardless?
I am currently using the galaxy s5 neo and when I look for stuff about my specific device model I can only find SM-G903F (USA) or SM-G903M (EUROPE), when mine is SM-G903W (CANADA). When I rooted my device using chainfire I used the root method for the USA version and it worked fine. So why first question would be, when looking for roms, mods, etc.. is it okay for me to always use the USA versions? Are the devices so similar that it doesn't matter? Or does it matter app to app?
Second, what is a safe way to install exposed on my device? I tried flashing ithe but soft bricked my device so I think I'm doing something wrong? Anyone have a detailed explanation?
Thank you in advance for any help:good:

I have the Same issue/Question. I have a SM-G903W which I've managed to root and install twrp on, and it's running 6.0.1. I'm looking for some custom roms so I can finally get off stock, but I am seeing very little discussion around the SM-G903W variant.
Does anyone know if the US versions of the roms will work?
I recently bricked my phone and I need to know what model my phone is to install twrp and a rom. My model is SM-G360T1, yet no one mentions this phone model on the forum so I don't know if this model is called multiple things. PLEASE HELP.

We don't have a dedicated rom unfortunately. Also try TWRP 2.7/2.8 (I think)
We do, just found roms and found twrp 3.0.2.0. for our phone and around 3 roms. I should have looked more, if you want to know where I got this than ask me for the links, or just look at the first 2 tabs of "Samsung Galaxy Core Prime ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Development".
