  • @kztech1319
    @kztech1319 4 года назад +1

    For these samsung phones it is extremely important if you are transferring around parts, you must have the exact same variant on both (storage option can be different). Something like a Galaxy S4 or S5 has like half a dozen variants and mix and matching between them will give you anything from signal issues to just flat out not fitting right. This is ESPECIALLY important in the likes of US and China where there are a bunch of carrier specific variants!
