Any custom ROMs for a Galaxy S5 (SM-G900R6)? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Someone gave me this old phone that I'd like to turn into a simple multimedia device for my dad. This SM-G900R6 is stuck at 6.0.1.
I'm curious if there are any custom ROMs I can put on this version?

Need some input and advice regarding Galaxy S5 LTE-A (Prime)

Hello
I have an opportunity to purchase a Galaxy S5 LTE-A. I have been considering it but was wondering if I can root it and then put custom ROMS on it. The device comes unlocked from factory but don't know if the bootloader is unlocked as well.
I know that most of the ROMS here are for the standard Galaxy S5 and the internals for the "Prime" are a bit different.
Would custom ROMS work with the "Prime?"
I also want to know the same. The problem is that not many will be have the phone to test so we will probably not get an answer to his.
Yea. Also I'm wondering if Nova launcher prime works and if zooper widget works with 4.4 kit Kat
yes to all of those questions.

New to Samsung

I have been a Sony user since 2011 and never tried other brands but now I switched to Galaxy S5 and I'm kinda feel noob now
The model number is "SM-G900F" and I noticed that there are other Galaxy S5 aside from this.
Is the CM12 on official nightlies "klte" is the same for all? or is there a specific baseband for each. I wanna try some kernel and AOSP based rom.
By the way my phone is still on 4.4.2. Ive heard there is 4.4.4 and 5.0.
Im used to doing modding on sony locking unlocking first bootloader before flashing kernel then flash rom. Is there a big difference when it comes to samsung? particularly Galaxy S5
First......DO NOT allow your phone to update to 5.0.0........It REALLY screws things up......
Second......research KNOX as this will have a direct bearing on whether you decide to go the whole custom route or simply just root, debloat, and customise your stock firmware.........

Need Help on custom roms

I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Metro Pcs (sm-g900t1) and i cant seem to find any custom roms that support this model , i heard from somewhere on this site that i can use the Tmobile custom roms (sm-g900t) since my phone is just rebranded , well i wanted to know if that was true. can i just do that ? or do i need to flash the firmware and change it to sm-g900t ? any help will be thankful.
As long as g900t1 and g900t have the same hardware internally, you should be good with using g900t ROMs

So you want to revert to stock your already rooted device? Then install root again?
Could you provide the PDA code?
I have this same phone and I want to do the same thing. I'm not sure what the PDA code is but the build number is: MMB29M.G900PvPS3CPK1_Deodexed
