Calling all other S5 users out there

 

[yvesadriel]

Information about all the Model Numbers of the SM-G900.
The G900 is a new Samsung flagship device. If this is the Galaxy S5,
then it sits well with the recent revelation that Samsung is using a
different way of assigning model numbers to the Galaxy S5,
using various letters at the end of the model number for different variants,
something we think might have something to do with Samsung’s region lock policy.

Here’s the List of Model Numbers of the SM-G900, or the Galaxy S5:
- SM-G9006V_CHN_CHN (China)
- SM-G9008V_CHN_ZM (China)
- SM-G9009D_CHN_CTC (China)
- SM-G900A_NA_ATT (AT&T)
- SM-G900D_JPN_DCM (Japan)
- SM-G900F_EUR_XX (Open Europe)
- SM-G900H_EUR_XX (Open Europe)
- SM-G900I_SEA_XSA (Asia)
- SM-G900J_JPN_KDI (Japan)
- SM-G900K_KOR_KTC (Korea)
- SM-G900L_KOR_LGC (Korea)
- SM-G900M_LA_VF (Vodafone)
- SM-G900P_NA_SPR (Sprint)
- SM-G900R4_NA_USC (US Cellular)
- SM-G900S_KOR_SKC (Korea)
- SM-G900T_NA_TMB (T-Mobile)
- SM-G900V_NA_VZW (Verizon)
- SM-G900W8_NA_BMC (BMC)

Switching to s5.. from note 3
Umm.. gagana kaya yung s5 bought from middle east sa Philippines? (Kahit gamitin yung region lock method 5min call sa stc sim)
sana di sya katulad ng note 3 restart ng restart .

Not sure if it will work, and don't know also if a custom ROM will be a solution to that problem.

It should work here. Same standard lang gamit ng mga telco natin sa kanila

Just my thoughts: sa tingin ko maliit lang ang incremental upgrade ng s5 against note 3. Mas marami pa ngang feature ang note 3 due to s-pen apps.
Well, its your money

For me it's the matter of pocketability, I won't be able to put a Note 3 in my pockets.

there is a bug with the s5 camera and SAMSUNG acknowledge it but you can exchange your unit kung me ganyang issue device mo,so better check your unit before doing anything or that will trip your device knox to 0x1 and void your warranty.

Battery life doesn't depend solely on your battery capacity. Check its endurance rating and then will let you decide which to choose.
