Hello all!
Got a few questions I'd like some help from everybody to figure out please! Here's a basic summary of my problem:
Recently moved down to Queensland, Australia, and had a friend from the US ship me a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S5 (SM-G900V), on account of phones being super expensive down here. Received the phone, put in my Telstra SIM card, and altered the APN Settings, and got the phone working properly, no problems with it really.
However, I'd love to root the phone in order to hopefully upgrade the Android OS from 5.0 to something newer. There's a couple little features I'd also like to get rid of, which I imagine would be possible upon successfully rooting the phone:
- On the Notifications Panel, there is a permanent Notification that reads: "SIM card is not from Verizon Wireless." (I would love to remove this).
- All of the Verizon Apps from my Apps Menu.
If I were to root it, is there anyway I could install the Telstra based OS, or a network unrestricted OS, that wouldn't have all of the unwanted apps in the Application Menu?
In a nutshell, what I'm requesting help for, is in order to root my phone and get an updated OS (hopefully), without having to use a Custom ROM? Although I'm not completely against using a Custom ROM.
Thanks in advance.
