samsung gs5 verizon to tmobile questions - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

so im looking to get a rom on this phone that works well with tmobile and im not sure what one would be the best choice, the phone is going to be for a first time smartphone user. I have also seen on here that wifi calling has issues? Does it work at all? the attached pictures contain all the info of the phone, because of the knox is it going to be difficult to flash the phone?
any help and information would be appreciated
~~~thanks

Wifi calling is only work with T-Mobile device.

Ive had a good look on this and the posts alsne post I found was that if its Sprint USA it wont be on there cos its a CMDA network and so the link most likely wont have it.

Why dont you go into a shop where they have one on display that is turned on and ask if you can have a look at it cos you are thinking of getting one.Then go into settings and have a look

Poweroffice + Dropbox for Note

I'm trying to get this app from the market, but it says my device is incompatible. I'm running Saurom. The app is free for Note users, and I had it on the stock ROM. Any suggestions, or a link to the APK? Again, the app is free. Thanks.
It's $15 on the market when I search for it.

The version specifically for the Note is free. They even advertise it in Samsung apps. I know it is free because I wouldn't pay $15.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alwaysonpc.android.powerofficeamn.vnc
I cant even download samsung apps or omni sketch (advertised for use with the s-pen) says device incompatible. I mean its made for our phone. Ive tried many many things. stock dpi, clear play store data numerous times.. nothing helps. Im on saurom as well. I think it might be just a rom issue. Ive asked this in the q and a section and nobody has an answer there either.
the issue i had with saurom and looking for apps in the play store is I think it shows your phone as canadian for some reason and dont get the same apps, this was when it first came out not sure if that is still an issue but may want to look at that
.. i just looked for it in my playstore and its coming up as 14.99 and the reviews are horrible on it !! its rated at 2 stars right now

That is the wrong version. This one is specifically for the Note, and titled so.

The problem's got to do with Saurom.
I'm running Collective's Unofficial and I have the Poweroffice+Dropbox app installed and working fine, and have had it since being on the stock ROM with no problems since.

Thank you!
my 2 cents
I recall there being something like this with some of the early betas of the ICS roms for Desire HD, The issue tied back to the screen resolution not being the factory default dpi and the market would see it as incompatable. you may want to check your screen res and verify it's the factiry default dpi (I am not sure what that is for the Note off hand)
Cheers

New T-Mobile radio pulled from galaxy note.(needed)

We are at&t galaxy note users that are on Tmobiles network and we need the new Tmobile radio to make the at&t note work better and maybe fully on the HSDPA network at 42 Mbps and not 24 Mbps that we currently are using. Please devs if you can post it. A lot of us can use our phones without the unstable radios we are currently on. Thank you

Boy am I glad devas turned into devs!!! lol!:laugh:
Rotohammer is working on it. Let's all wish him good luck!
He reports that the tmobile radio did not fix the problem. He'll try something else tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

Rotohammer? Did he start a thread? did he tried whole whole rom or only the radio?
You are a near neighbor to Rotohammer. He hails from NJ.
I have a Rotohammer. It makes drilling concrete fun!
Modem is actually a contraction of words. . . or is it an acronym? I forget. Modular something or other.
Ok, get the drift? None of this also has anything to do with rom development.

He is continuing this thread-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30019455#post30019455
And I did notice he hails from NJ!
He has a tmo note. Not sure exactly what he did. He said something about swapping antennas tomorrow to see if that does the trick. So he must have a tmo and an att note.
this shouldnt be in development section unless you were posting the actual radio for users.

The latest link you sent me was like a WIKI for this phone but I still can't pinpoint where exactly I should be going to get this phone totally stock. Zedomax thread is waaaaaay to outdated and almost everyone who tried the method posted on his website ran into problems. HTC makes some nice phones but I forgot how UN ROOT friendly they are.
To answer your question: my wife has a friend that is up for a Sprint contract renewal. She's interested in the Evo LTE 4G (which still goes for $200 with a new contract.) So what I'm going to do is GIVE her my phone for free and give her the $$$ to buy the NOTE 2 for me! Win Win!
Now, all I gotta do is unroot this POS so I can get this deal done.

Now That the Bump'd Site is Gone...

Does that mean I have to start thinking about going back to an M8?

Idk but this bump stuff seemed sketchy since the beginning
The bumped site went down because someone reverse engineered it and released on their own - making the site unnecessary since it can be done locally on a machine, but making it all but certain that devices upgraded to factory lollipop and beyond will be locked down tight.
