Morning folks,
I have a simple, possibly stupid question. Can I flash a rom meant for an M919v on an M919? There are canadian stock lollipop roms out, and wondering if I could flash one on my M919 from T-Mobile as they don't seem to be moving forward very fast on moving forward on roms. I know I will have to flash the modem to keep the lte and possibly the kernel for the m919 but any help would be awesome. Thanks.
I wouldn't recommend it. If you really want to flash lollipop flash a rom, not firmware, from the international variant section. I9505

Hello after doing a lot of reading and finding out we can use i9505 roms from the snapdragon international model I also read just flash the rom then the kernel from a M919 model.
Does anyone know where to find the stock kernel for the Wind mobile
SGH-M919V version of the S4 ?
That way I can flash the Omega rom and use the stock kernel to avoid issues ect.

I am new to android and have a question. I am trying to replace my custom rom on my GT-N7105 to the stock rom for AT&T in the US. But all I keep finding are international version Roms. Is there a US Version or am I supposed to use a international version ? I just figured out difference of N7100 (Non-LTE) and N7105 (LTE). Any help would be greatly appreciated here.
Can I flash the HK 4.3 version will it change my language in phone ? Or should I do UK version 4.1.2
Hi all im Jason from the UK.

If not which 4.3 firmware can I use.

Jason, you are fine to flash any ROM as long as it is for your specific model e.g. N7105 (yours) and not for another model. Being on 4.1 you may find your current bootloader causes intermittent problems on a 4.3 ROM. There are two solutions, upgrade your bootloader to MJ5 prior to flashing 4.3 ROM or flash 4.3 ROM then flash drketan's wifi fix.
I also recommend NOT flashing from Sammobile, instead go to Android development forum here on XDA and select an appropriate ROM. That way the Knox feature present in latest 4.3 ROMs can be avoided.
I have deliberately not included links for you - instead read & read install instructions from the ROM thread of your choosing. You will be fine as long as you understand each step & all the terms & points mentioned in ROM thread.
Good luck
Hi,
Just updated to N900T UVUDNF1 bootlader and ROM and not quite happy with a few things. I was on Jelly Bean till now. Is it possible to install a NB4 or MI7 Rom even though I am on the new boot loader and radio? Would it work? I need to switch to a TW ROM because of WiFi calling.
Thanks much!

NB4 is not jellybean it's kitkat 4.4.2 TW firmware.
MI7 is jellybean 4.3 TW firmware.
Both the NB4 and the MI7 are Tmobile N900T TW roms and both have
the wifi calling option as long as your phone is a Samsung N900T
Tmobile branded device and you are on the Tmobile network.
If your radio/baseband is NB4 then you cannot downgrade to MI7,
however you can upgrade to NE6 or the latest NF1 firmwares which
are Kitkat 4.4.2 TW firmwares and both have the wifi calling feature.
Good luck!

Hi,
I am already on NF1 firmware. Upgraded yesterday(was on M17) and think I may have made a mistake upgrading to it so soon based on my usage of one the new NF1 custom roms.
So I cannot use a M17 (JB) Rom, but could I install a NB4 Rom since it is KK? I have TW recovery(2.7) installed.
Thanks!
In case anybody wondering I installed [NB4][AROMA] Hyperdrive KK RLS3.1 ║║ Hyperdrive just right now and it has been fantastic so far
No issues yet. GPS locked inside the house in a second on the first try.
So NB4 Rom works on an NF1 firmware imho.
Cheers!
I don't have my phone rooted and I'd like to upgrade it to 5.0.0 lollipop. I see Samsung only put out the update to other countries and not the US, how nice of them.
Would I even notice a difference using it or would putting the Aussie version of lollipop on my US t-mobile phone be a no no?
Thank you
You cannot flash an Australian stock LP ROM to the USA T-Mobile phone via Odin.
There is a T-MOBILE Australian lollipop upgrade on Samsungs website for the m919. For verification, It won't work on my m919? Would u mind to help me understand why?
Thank you
The bootloader in the rom will be compared to the hardware being flashed. If it's a match, it will flash but not necessarily function properly.
If the Australian m919 is the same as the hardware as the USA variant, it will probably flash but I don't know if it will work n properly.
Ok thank you for the explanation
Why don't you install Lineage which will put you into >7.0
