[Q] Installing a Samsung S4 I9500 ROM on a Samsung S4 SCH-545. - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA ,
As you can see I have a big problem. I got a Samsung Galaxy S4 from Verizon and I left the country. Now, I want to use it where I live and I have fixed the SIM card problems but I want to run the original S4 I9500 ROM and not the Verizon one, as i suspect the Verizon one causes problems. Can I do that? As the devices are the same but the one i have is from verizon and has a different model number.

I (my wife) has the same phone, I managed to root it and tomorrow I will try to flash twrp and look if I can get cm14 on it. Stupid Verizon ROM....
Late reply I know... Merry Christmas

You own a Frankestein. Install this APP and add some screenshots.
@androidfine16: Without seeing your information from Phone Info, I can virtually guarantee that your only means of upgrading will be to install AT&T firmware, which will not lead to a good experience unless you're not planning on rooting the phone. AT&T locks its bootloader, making rooting virtually impossible.
If you just got this device, run, don't walk to where you got it from and return it.

root for galaxy s5 g900a

dose anyone know if there's root for the galaxy s 5 g900a the problem is I bought the phone used and the person that owned it be four me took the latest Ota update to android 5.0.... and from what I read on line a month or so back...if u have the at&t s5 running lollipop u better get used to a stock phone.... please help!! thanks in advance!
Yep, iirc, Lollipop locks the bootloader of the G900A, so if you're not rooted and are running Lollipop, you're stuck

SM-G900P.......

Good evening everyone.
I just bought a Galaxy S5 (SM-G900P).
Apparently it's Sprint's operator in Canada. Personally I'm French and a little lost with everything I read.
They are Roma, Kernel, Recovery TWRP, please who are adapted by this phone.
I have a S4 Mini (GT-I9195) and I have never had any problems.
Your help would make me happy.:fingers-crossed:
