Hello together,

i’ll just try to install e on my Samsung Galaxy S4 GT-l9505

On this Page i can only find this:
Samsung Galaxy S4 Active (jactivelte)

Samsung Galaxy S4 C-Spire (jfltespi)

Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition (jgedlte)

Samsung Galaxy S4 Exynos (ja3g) (i9500)

Samsung Galaxy S4 (Qualcomm) (jflte)

Samsung Galaxy S4 LTE Advanced i9506 (ks01lte)

Which one can i use? Or is it impossible to install twrp on my phone?

Thank you

On the twrp web site, if you type « GT-I9505 », i think it will propose « jflte »
witch is the right code name for our lovely common s4 ( jfltexx is also used as code name for the custom system image builds )

Hi piero,

thanks for the answer.

Is it your privat knowledge, or can you teach me how to get this information?

In my first post i forgot the website: https://twrp.me/Devices/
So i will use jflte, thanks
