Can't change the bootloader, but can flash ROMs ported like that G900M > G900F if the devices are compatible, but the ROM needs to be modded first, can't flash a stock G900M to a G900F for example

Since the thread looks a little abandoned:
If you stumbled here looking for root on S5 6.0.1, try this, helped me:

[Q] Note 3 LDU n900x help

Hello to all holders Live Demo Unit! and the developers out here
I want to summarize in this topic (maybe someone will correct if I'm wrong).
Many guys out there are having LDU unit and few of them might be using it properly but i want to ask people and the developers to help people like me to get it to working properly. I know and want others to know as well that with a Live Demo Unit YOU CAN'T DO PHONE CALLS or TEXT MESSAGING due to its nature. So, we need a custom/stock firmware that will transform Live Demo Unit in to a working tablet note 3 that works on WiFi and for multimedia purposes.
In the beginning when i had it in my hands i upgraded the android to 4.4.2 leading to upgradation of boot loader to newer version and later i came to know that there isn't any going back, you cant downgrade your boot loader.
after installing the firmware with Odin i noticed few issues:-
1. Periodic boots
2.Videos, camera (in video mode), YouTube were not working and as soon as they are opened phone restarts
3.Battery draining issues
4."Network operator" eats battery more other processes (always on the mobile network signal) even in airplane mode
after researching got to know that all the issues were due to modem. i collected all the demo firmwares as well but could got them working , as the modem file (CP_N900XXXUDMK1_LLK_REV03_CL1252918.tar.md5) was not compatible with version higher than 4.3 so in short i was stuck
i downloaded various firmwares stock as well custom and yes cyanogen too but not successful
then i installed cygwinand removed the modem and other files from the stock and thought that it might help in any way but nothing as far
please if any one know how to correct the issue is more than welcome
thanks
If you have kk BL you only have to flash NG1 modem minimum.....use @Khizar method...
i did that already but still no success. thanks for replying
anymore help would be appreciated.
come on guys please help me out with it !!!
stock 5.0 is out, shall i try it..will it be worth??
any ideas would be appreciated

AFAIK that is not always correct.
If the LDU has a modem board, you can make it working with phone calls and SMS.
Use Phone INFO ★Samsung★ to check if your LDU has Modem Board or not? (under MISC INFO section).
@vndnguyen
but it doesnt have a modem in it.i have checked it.

can you please guide me which rom to install.
Step 1. Chech your version of LDU. Snapdragon/exynox. Use phone info samsung from play store.
Step 2. Find the tread in general about the leaked firmware for note 3 ( snapdragon) or exynox ( this variant of note 3 has from today official lolipop) and install by following the instructions. It's all here, just search a little and you'll be fine

will it solve the problem of reboots and video error ?
You will find that rom in general thread! Download odin, firmware and follow the steps described vrey well there ( including pictures). First you need to make your phone to work normally, after that you can try different roms. For now just install a pure samsung rom

thank you ,
but are u sure ? cause some guys said the same when i tried to flash some n910c theme , but i flashe without ant problem.
anyway , what is the difference between n910c and 910h ?
No. I will not work and may brick the device. The cooked/ custom ROM that you installed does not normally include "modem". The main difference is on the "modem". The official lollipop fw for N910C include its modem.

No we cant flash new update for N910C to our N910H
because we need modem and bootloader and maybe pit file to support android 5
we must wait for update for our device.
Any odin firmware flash has to be flashed to that specific model number or it will brick your phone. What you are waiting for is just the rom extracted or even the modem extracted to flash separetly.

Yes it is possible. I'm gonna test it. Downloading the ROM to my server and then I'm gonna download it to my computer and modify it. If it worked, I'll post a direct link and a tutorial over here. And by direct link I mean you get to download the ROM from my server with the highest possible speed and not from that cheepskate Sammobile. By the way, if there are any Iranians here, let me know.
And this was tested by some other guy, I figured, I'd give it a shot.
Note that after flashing this rom that I'm testing, your phone will have STOCK Rom from Samsung and LTE and Download Booster will be enabled on your N910H but in settings it's gonna say you have N910C.

Lollipop update on Galaxy GT-i9515

Hi everybody,
I need help with my rooted Samsung Galaxy S4 Value Edition (gt-i9515, running 4.4.2). I'd like to update it to lollipop and I can't find any specific tutorial for the i9515, which for some reasons seems to be different from the basic i9505 version. I'm running the official rom, since there isn't any support for custom roms on the i9515.
Somebody help me please
Official Update
Hello, no need to do anything guys,
just go to Settings / Check for Updates, it will automatically download the official Samsung Update to lollipop 501

Download the ROM from sammobile and flash it with Odin. You will need to re root and please bear in mind that xposed currently does not work on Samsung Lolipop ROMs

I just realized that the GT-9515 is not even mentioned between the s4 models, hence there's no firmware available to download. How do I solve this now?

Need Guidance...

Hey guys,
I'm going to install a custom ROM today to see if that maybe fixes my SensorHub not working. I just need guidance on the correct procedure. I have a SM-N900 model (N900XXUEBOL2) running Lollipop 5.0. Do I first need to root, or can I install a custom ROM straight from the stock recovery? It seems like there aren't may ROMS available for the SM-900 model, but I've found one that seems to have good battery life and performance: TR-ROM. This is the procedure I will follow:
1) Root phone with CF-Auto-Root-ha3g-ha3gxx-smn900.zip
2) Use ODIN to flash n900-cwm-recovery-6.0.5.0-kk_L5.0(0812).tar
3) Flash TR-ROM from CWM: TR-ROM XDA
Is this all correct? I just want to make sure that I don't brick my phone!
Also, how can I revert back to stock if I need to?
Thanks so much!!!

OK. ..so are the 3 steps I mentioned above correct?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-3/general/guide-root-note-3-sm-n900-5-0-install-t3069670
I'm trying to follow that guide, but the build number of N900 on the CF-Root site says:
LRX21V.N900XXUEBOA6
Whereas mine is:
N900XXUEBOL2
Will is still work? Also, it says a locked bootloader will probably brick your device. How do I check if mine is locked?
I've rooted and installed custom roms on many devices before - I'm not sure why rooting and installing custom rom on the Note 3 is so daunting...

I wouldn't be asking here if I hadn't already Google'd extensively.
But of course... The phone is brand new, so there's no info yet available. I understand...
Yes, do as you wrote in the first post. Should be ok, as those are the latest files.
Sent from my Note 3 running Purify CM13
I'm finding that there is actually TOO much information (too many variables). That's why I'm asking specifically about my version, as I can't seem to get my head around it - and rather than brick my phone, I'm merely seeking a bit of guidance from someone more experienced than me. In the past, when I was rooting previous phones, I received a lot of useful information and help from XDA - but it seems like now all I'm getting are sarcastic remarks and general unfriendliness. Why is that?
You have N900 its an exynos model not the qualcom .Not something that has a big following on here .
The links in your post point to zips , whats the point of me downloading a zip ??
CF autoroot you need to read the instructions regarding builds .
Locked boot loader no idea for that model .
CWM yes flash via Odin if its the correct one for your model .
Flash rom yes the rom will give you the method .

SM-N910W8 to SM-N910F possible ?

Hello
My Galaxy Note 4 is SM-N910W8 (canadian)
I heard that N910w8 and N910F have same hardware, thats why N910w8 can be flashed to N910F right ?
Will be there any problems ?
What do you think guys?
Why I want to flash it to N910F ?
because the N910w8 have only a few system languages, what I need is a russian langue and I know the N910F has it

You can only flash custom rom from n910f with datafix and custom kernel supported for your model in order to do this you have to root your device and it will trigger knox 0×1.
If you flash through odin n910f firmware it will fail because models are different.
Maybe there is a way to only add a Russian language pack for the system ?
The version I have is 6.0.1

No you cannot add languages that easy there is lot of work to do.
If you have rooted phone with xposed framework installed you can Try "language enabler" module from xposed downloads maybe it will work.
Or you can try any N910F rom with datafix and kernel for your model it will work very well with all languages supported.
I am running dr.ketan m6 s7edge rom on N910T T- mobile note 4 with datafix and kernel and it has all the languages.
Yes , the device is rooted and I tried the app Language Enabler, and it didn't worked, it seems like I just don't have the languages pre installed.
If the only way is to flash for a n910F + datafix
Can you please give me an advice which ROM to download? There are a lot, Dr ketans seems to be nice.
But I'm.not sure which one is good for me.
I use a lot the S Pen , and the applications for the S Pen are very useful for me.
Thanks

Dr ketan m6 s7 port and m12 note 7 port are best it depends which 1 you like note 7 or s7 look they both support s.pen and all languages but fingerprint reader on lockscreen will not work.
In download section you will find a datafix file for all models.
