Bought a NEW S5 from china - now I want to kill myself. (Verizon locked)



Hi XDA!

I recently bought an S5 on ebay from a seller in china. In the settings, it shows SM-G900A in 'About phone', but when I tried to flash a custom ROM, I got a message that Software not authorized by VERIZON was detected on the phone and I should return it to a Verizon retailer.
Since I live in Sweden, this is not an option, and I flashed back to stock.

This breaks my heart, completely. I don't want to be stuck on TouchWiz 4.4 - I've been running custom roms since the dawn of custom roms!

Is there any known way to bypass this crap? I've already sent a message to the chinese guy, but my hopes are not to high.

At least it could be rooted with towelroot, so I'm not completely screwed.

Cheers

Joachim
