Wrong forum, the G900F is the International variant and this forum is for SM-G900V, the Verizon variant.

yes, but i have a g900v from Verizon and i am in europe
Sorry, why buy an SM-G900V when what you likely need is an SM-G900F?

because I ran out cellphone in the states and a family member gave me without knowing that there were differences between these two.
and I would not say, no thanks, especially when we were going off to the airport

So you're asking if you can flash the SM-G900F stock rom on a SM-G900V? Before even answering that question you would need un unlocked bootloader which is less than likely. And even if you had one, what you propose would more than likely result in a brick.

Fair enough. You may have to wait for root to be able to modify then. Sorry for the inconvenience.

but it is possible since the bootloader is unlocked, right?
I do not think wrong?
as long i get rooted the cellphone the chances of brick the phone are minor?

Verizon Bootloaders are NOT unlocked... I don't know where you found that, but Verizon has not offered these phones unlocked to my knowledge.

I know that.
what I said was "since the bootloader is unlocked" and "i get rooted the cellphone", meaning when there is a way to unlock the bootloader and root the phone.
Thank for yours replies.

lol.. the answer is no. even if at some point in time we have root will b unlikely to get a unlocked bootloader and if you flash an international rom doesnt mean it will work.. you have a smartphone you can only use on wifi bud lol or sell to someone in america n buy one in europe where your at or buy the international version or wait for who knows how long

Well lemme know hout goes I saw on another post he had posted it but wasn't sure if that was legit to go or what
CF-Auto-Root is only for unlocked bootloaders, as it clearly states on the page. If you have locked bootloaders, as I believe the G955U has, it wont work.
How would you k ow if your bootloader is locked?

Hello.
I can't seem to find the info, has the Canadian G6 been unlocked? Also are the US roms compatible with the H873? I'm considering getting one but want to be able to run custom roms.
Thanks!

Very much. Actually it seems someone is working on it in the bounty thread for H870DS
Any news of the bootloader being able to be unlocked? Does anyone think that with a future OTA even that it's possible Samsung will allow us to check or uncheck the damn oem unlock box since we don't even have this feature as developer mode is engaged!? Love the a20 but damnit haven't had a rooted device in over 2 years. I miss it lol
No news yet.
Sorry
