[Q] Any T-Mobile S5 specific issues? Can it use S900F ROMs? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Hi all, I'm considering getting the S5, but where I live only the T-Mobile version is still available (international version is sold out). Are there any limitation/issue with the S900T? Can we just use an international ROM (for the S900F) and have it run flawlessly like the international version? Thanks in advance.

I use the G900T on AT&T using Omega Rom (a G900F Rom) and have no issues. I'm not sure what country you're in but the G900T has all the LTE bands the G900A has and a few more.
The G900T does not have a locked bootloader like the G900A does. It's a great way to go if you need a GSM phone in the U.S.

[Q] Will an unlocked Telus or Rogers work on ATT flawless?

or need to flash the modems? I am pissed at ATT for not releasing a 32gb version of Galaxy S 3...Was wondering for either to go to i9300 or i747 unlocked from a Canadian carrier..Will LTE work fine on ATT?

Will send i9300 in Canada from China, what do I need to know?

Hi Guys,
I live in China and I want to send a SGS3 i9300 to my son in Canada(for Xmas). Before I send it I will root it and I would like to flash a custom ROM.
Up till now any ROM that I've flashed worked here(in China) no problems. But I'm not familiar with the Canadian network.
So I'm wondering if..
-Will any ROM work?
-Does it matter if he is on At&t or Verizon or Rogers etc..?
-Do I need to change the modem?
As you see, I'm asking myself a lot of questions(maybe for nothing). If anyone can give me some infos about that would be very appreciated.

I use a S3 in Canada (i9300). It will work without any problems on Rogers, Fido, Bell, Virgin Mobile, Telus and Koodo. HSPA frequencies are compatible.

[Q] Unlocked AT&T S5 on T-Mobile

I recently unlocked and rooted my AT&T Galaxy S5 to use on T-Mobile network. However I still have AT&T firmware on the phone, and I'd really like to flash cyanogenmod, or at at the very least stock T-Mobile. Is there any way to do this? Thanks in advance!

Don't know if there is a Cyogenmod available for your model (SM-G900A) but there is an AllianceRom which is built off the T-mobile SM-G900T firmware which will work on the AT&T S5. However, since that version of the S5 has a locked bootloader you will need to use Safestrap Recovery instead of TWRP. You might want to look among the threads in the AT&T S5 area of this forum for more information and maybe ask your question there. I brought my unlocked AT&T S5 over to T-mobile and used it for a few months before getting a T-mobile S5. AT&T stock s5 firmware worked fine. I also did try out AllianceRom on that phone briefly but stick with stock. I don't think rom slots ever got fixed on Safestrap so only the stock rom slot could be used for flashing which is one of the reasons I chose to stick with stock on that phone.

There is none. You have to Sim unlock it from stock Ron and purchasing a Sim unlock code from a 3rd party company or from tmo themselves after full purchase and required term.

Ok thanks.
Can I put any custom ROM on G900T? The reason I am looking for custom ROM to put is that, I want VoLTE to work on different operator.
As G900T wont allow VoLTE to work with different SIM so require information on ROM which I can flash so that VoLTE can work
That I don't know unless the carrier supports it. Sorry, you just have to research that part on your own. The only thing I know is HD voice is tmo only.

Galaxy S5 SMG900T dude.s.

hello people on the forum, I want to purchase a galaxy s5, and probe the SMG900A and that is all that I sold blocked. I was told that I look for the Galaxy S5 SMG900F or 900M, but in my country it is difficult to find these second-hand models.
I offer SMG900T model, and understand a little that is not as blocked as the 900A, but then want to ask that much difference between the 900T vs 900F.
900F roms work on the 900T?
900T is the root recovery and in lollipop 5.1.1?
It is so easy to manipulate as 900F / M?
I do not want is to return to regret as I did with the 900A.
I want to try roms as phoenix 9.0, or sixperience, or really good roms
It can? help me please
From what I understand, the G900T is the same phone as the G900F, but the radios are a bit different. If you live outside the US, you may want to make sure the G900T will work with your carrier. If you do decide to purchase a G900T, make sure it's unlocked from T-Mobile.
That being said, The G900T can work with all G900F roms as far as I know. The bootloader is not locked so you can use a custom recovery, though most of us just use flashfire now. It's pretty easily rooted, and I don't see that changing. I'm currently on rooted stock 5.1.1 (OG6) and it's working wonderfully.
