Please take your concerns to the SGS4 Forum (search for s 4, with a space in between). You have the regular s4, so you're gonna find a thread there with info you need.
now let us enjoy our s4 active forum, or go get yourself an s4 Active and maybe you'll understand.
- Good Day Sir!
haha... yay we have our own forum now .
Somebody did not take that left turn at Alberqurque!
There are many carriers and models of the S4. make sure you are in the correct forum to avoid creating a $700 paperweight

I can't seem to find a forum for the s4 gt-19507 roms.
Can someone please point me in the right direction?

There is nothing to see, it's as if the GT 19507 exists only in Australia, owing to the different iterations of 4G.
I guess no-one is going to take the risk and use another 4G ROM, or root.

i have the same issue
i am having a similar issue i recently done an insurance claim through optus for my Galaxy i used to have a i9505 i ended up with an i9507 i had never heard of such a model and i have found it only exists through optus in AUS/HK so i believe(not 100% sure ) but i have read a number of blogs and forums before coming here and a number of people have had successes with using the i9505 firmware

Firstly it's I9507 not 19507
Pretty much the same issues here as the other folks.
only a different number on the kernel. The I9507 only exists in Australia & Hong Kong
more commonly registered as Samsung Galaxy S4 TD-LTE (According to the Samsung website)
Like others I've been told 'Use the 19505 software you'll be fine'.
I have however managed to get my hands on the I9507 firmware through http://www.sammobile.com/

Unlocking the bootloader
Hello,
I know this thread is a little old now but seems to be a good place to ask, so I hope some one sees this and can help!
I really really want to root my GT-I9507, asap, have been looking through this site alot recently and the simplest (for a noob) way seems to be 'CF-Auto-Root'.
The problem I am having and not being able to solve is how do I unlock the bootloader?
As chainfire says it can brick my phone if locked and it would appear that it almost certainly is, but I cant find a way to unlock the GT-I9507, only for AT&T and Verizon (American not Australian). I can see that some people must have as they have used the 'CF-Auto-Root' method.
Any ideas, or if someone can point me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Katoiam

I managed to root it mate, flashed latest optus 4.4.2, then flashed Philz recovery, then flashed CF autoroot ( the new version dedicated specifically for i9507 which you may find on cf autoroot website
. )
Use This CF AutoRoot; ( This one is for Android 4.4.2 )
http://download.chainfire.eu/503/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-jftdd-jftddzh-gti9507.zip
Check all versions here;
http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
If you want custom recovery, use PhilZ ( The same as for I9505 ).
Good Luck.
This may be a stupid thing to say, but I am very worried about bricking my phone, so how come it doesn't brick the phone if chainfire says you have to have a unlocked bootloader?

The steps I wrote above were the ones I followed, I haven't touched the bootloader, only upgraded to stock 4.4.2 then rooted it and flashed PhilZ recovery.
I have just made the plunge and rooted my phone.
So I used the Chainfire-autoroot method as stated above, but didn't flash either the stock rom (as I already had 4.4.2, nor the recovery (as it was saying it needed to be rooted before it would work!)) and it all worked fine.
I have some issues trying to get odin to see my phone, which were rectified by going to samsung for the drivers.
So for anyone who is wondering, Optus have not (at least by 27/1/15) not locked their bootloaders on the GT-I9507.
I hope that this might eventually help someone, and I'm not just talking to my self!
Hey guys Im new to this Galaxy S5 flashing and Im trying to figure out something. I notice alot of the roms say that it will only run on the 900F S5 model but I flashed alot of those roms on my device and it worked just fine on my 900M, So why do some people say it will not work on the 900M or I need to use thr KTooozes kernel in order for it to work? Can someone fill me in on this? Thank you

Both are GSM, but the F variant is the International version, where the M is mostly for the Americas. Otherwise, your device is mostly the same.

So I guess that would explain why I dont have any issues when flashing the F roms on my device. I guess the only thing that will really differ is the modem and bootloader.

A fake or clone phone is never worth buying. Nothing on xda will work for those and you would be hard pressed to find anything to root, mod, etc.
Totally agree, you get what you pay for.
And to add to what the previous poster said about nothing here on XDA working with your device, if you *did* try to flash a rom or mod from here you WILL end up bricking your phone.......everything on XDA is developed exclusively for official OEM products......

I can unlock a few devices today to help out fellow members. You will need to know what baseband and firmware your on and must be Sprint Device! You will need Teamviewer, you can download at their site, but will be posting link soon. I can only do a few for now so Please don't be mad if I can't get to you or respond to your private message. Please backup your device using whatever method you want, such as Samsung Kies, Samsung Cloud Backup, etc! This is important as procedure may need for device to be factory reset! This does not trip Knox nor affect warranty, so Samsung Pay and Health will work as always.
Please PM me if you want your device unlocked. Remember, I can't possibly get to everybody and can only
do a few!
