SM-T705 vs. SM-T707?

Sorry if this has been asked earlier, but I was unable to search and find anything regarding the following information - so here it goes:
I've seen several posts on xda mentioning a -807 (vs the -805 we have in Sweden atm) and I'm wondering what the difference between these two models are. I assume the -807 has LTE as well as a new processor, no?
Also, is there a -707 model on the way as well? In that case, I'm going for it!

I have no idea about the 707 and T807s. What I can tell you is that the T705 and T805 both have roms and root for the tablets. I havent seen any roms for 707 of any sort. So most likly, you are going to see more development for the T805 and T705 and root for those also. There is no root for T707 or t807 and migjt have locked bootloaders i think.

If I'm not mistaken the x07 models are some special AT&T models or something...

the ATT model per oldblue910 I think does not have call app (cannot make calls..data access but no calling capability)

I believe T707 is a modified T705 with the calling/texting apps removed. T807 is probably similar.
There are sub-models like T707A (AT&T) and T807V (Verizon). I think the Verizon and Sprint models have a Snapdragon processor

T807x and T707x have a Snapdragon and LTE. The x indicates carrier customizations for USA carriers (mobile phone functions removed for sure, some may even have specific LTE bands). The T805 and 705 have an Exynos and LTE, and the T800 and T700 have an Exynos without LTE.

Does anyone know if it's safe to flash the T705 stock firmware on the ATT T707 variant using Odin? I recall doing this on the original Galaxy Tab and the Euro firmware enabled the dialer for calling. Using mine on T-Mobile and would love to remove the ATT bloat.
Sorry if his is redundant, I could not find anything on Google.

I have the t807p which is the sprint model with snapdragon processor. I make calls to and from it all the time as it came with its own phone number from sprint.

The AT&T x07 models use a Exynos CPU not Snapdragon.
I returned mine.

Snapdragon is much better and lots of development in custom roms

Confusion about model nos.

I'm looking to buy an S2 but I've become confused by all the Txxx numbers. If I'm looking for the 8" tablet what's the current model number? Is there a WiFi and an LTE variant?

Specifically, T710 vs T713. Every retail store I look at seems to sell the T710, but Amazon says the T713 is newer.

T713 is the newer model of the T710, with the snapdragon chipset. It hasn't been properly released yet, although it might be available in Germany. T715 is the LTE variant, and T719 is the newer snapdragon model of that.
So, first digit is size (7=8", 8=9.7"), 1 appears constant, last digit is 0 for WiFi Exonys, 5 for LTE Exonys, 3 for WiFi Snapdragon(new), 9 for LTE Snapdragon (new).

This was very helpful, thank you. Just picked my S2 up from Best Buy a couple of days ago and it is the T713. Was confused about it until I read this

Question rom to galaxy tab s2 SM-T815c

Before anything greetings to all I have a query I have the tablet galaxy tab s2 model sm-t815c from taiwan or china (one of the two is) I'm waiting and waiting but does not appear the update to marshmallow, is still in lollipop 5.02, I was looking for information on various websites but nothing for my model, which I wanted to know is, if I install the rom from another model i.e. galaxy tab s2 sm-t815N0 of Korea , It has marshmallow, I doubt because with Android as much as I did was to put his hand to a galaxy s2 and then never more it touches anything, would have some problem of bricks or something so? The two devices have the same hardware, processor, connectivity etc, just change the bands, the other question that arises is that the lte bands are different, my country uses lte 4 aws which have rom Korean, and the mi has it, if I change it the bw4 on my device to be activated in order to use it?
Forgiveness by ask both, not want to put the leg and meet me with a super brick.
Sorry for my english i used the traductor

Which G800 best for LineageOS in US?

Hey all sorry for the newbness, I'm kinda totally new to android modding. I've been running a G800A for years now and love it to death, but it's just become a bit too outdated and limiting in stock form. I'm also under the understanding that the G800A is the most limiting version, as there is not even ROMs available to run anything about Android 5.1.1(?)
So I'm understanding if I wanted to go to LineageOS, my options are the G800F/M/Y. Anything I've found on these shows them all virtually identical other than the 4g bands. Would any one of these 3 be any better than the others to use in the USA? Does whatever carrier I would end up going with matter much?
Also, even more stupider questions- has anyone tried installing LineageOS on the G800A?
Last one- what about the G800R4 if I wanted to go with a CDMA carrier?
TIA for any help with this

you can only flash a rom built for your exact device...
only a 800f rom for a 800f device..
or you will brick..
( some roms are built for more then one device like the f/m/y variants)
sadly almost every samsung device sold in the usa after the s4 is bootloader locked.
so you cant flash anything.
you can get a s5 mini g800f from ebay for 60$ and start the flashing game is you love small phones.
That is what is did.
every samsung phone i get now is international or i dont buy it.

@nutpants thx for the reply. I'm still a bit confused tho- aren't US version G900s able to be flashed? Unless I misunderstood some of the stuff I've come across. I'm still on the fence as to whether I want to stay with something quite so small as the G800 (my eyeballs are getting old along with me). I think I might go with a G900 and see how it works out. But is this the same deal ie- I need to look for an international version of that?
Also, I've noticed that tons of international versions have limited to no compatible LTE bands with those used here in the states. I'm assuming there's no workaround for this as it's a hardware issue(?) How much does this affect real world usability?

first off i dont know everything, so you will have to research
https://www.kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/US/samsung-galaxy-s5-mini
this is a good reference but i just found it so it could be very wrong also.
( it looks like it is not very good with all the variants so its not to be considered the last word)
while i have not looked at every rom posted here ( and there might be a usa at&t s5mini xda page someplace) i don't remember seeing any rom for the g800a variant of the s5mini if it does not say g800a it will very likely not work, and will brick your device if you try.
(https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rooting-the-s5-mini-from-at-t-g800a.3124674/
its not looking good for your g800a device at all )
i have a g900w8 (Canadian variant) and i can flash anything that the international version uses, but it has all the bands that i usa uses for the most part. (best of both worlds) but i think the usa model (v, r4,p) has a locked boot loader so it is not easy to flash roms.
( i think there is a way to do it, but i never have as i dont but bootloader locked phones)
the s7 and older Canadian phones from samsung are all easily rootable , most can be flashed with international roms, but (dont quote me on this) they use mostly the north america popular bands for lte, hspa, etc.
if you are looking for a newer phone dont get the g900 s5
get the s7 g935w8 canadian phone its about the same size, must faster, better battery ( but you cant replace it, MUCH MUCH better camera (ive had nothing but problems with the s5 camera) and ive found them for about 150$ used in great shape.
if you use data a lot then you want lte to work if you are just going to talk, then the gsm bands are good enough. ive used Canadian phones in the usa plenty and have no serious issues.
but i just got the s5 mini g800f from ebay and im still setting it up so i dont know how well it works yet.
short answer, usa phones are much much harder to root if at all, fewer roms, international phones are much better for all that but may not work well in the usa, canadian phones might be what you want to look at
(my Canadian s5 g900w8 still have support for the latest lineage os 18 )
before you buy check if the phone is supported by lineage os
https://download.lineageos.org/
if it is, then you can root, flash roms and very likely have unofficial roms for years to come.
or you can search xda, but as you can see, the s5mini is all but dead here and developers are not working hard to improve the roms we do have. in another year this place will be a ghost town.
btw i have canadian s4, s5, s7, s4 mini, s7 , s7 edge, note 2, note 3, note 4, mega . and have been very happy with them all. i have a few usa devices (s5 active)but i cant do anything with them. so they sit on a shelf. ( not that any of them do much but the hobby of flashing the newest rom and trying it out.

Question TWRP?

Is it likely that the WiFi models of the Tab S8 will see TWRP? I have the Wifi version of the Tab S7 and I haven't found TWRP for it, oddly enough. I would think it would be popular enough for that development. I specifically bought the WiFi version of the Tab S7 for that reason, thinking that would be the case, but oddly enough, the cellular models of the Tab S7 have it, but not WiFi. Frustrating...

Yes I bought the tab s6 wifi because that used to be the most popular and now everyone buys the LTE verisons which to me doesn't make sense because I don't take my tablet out and if I did I would just hotspot my phone for Internet and save money on model
