Did you also end up with the international modem?
And if so did you retain LTE?
It doesnot change modem you should flash on top of current stock rom only clean dalvik and cache. And flash

The only thing that should be different between the i9505 and the I337/I337M is the modem. Wifi is managed by the kernel, so this shouldn't be affected. However, US cellular bands could be different from European (850/2100 MHz). The Snapdragon 600 supports 850, 900, 1700, 2100 and more. As long as you flash the modem specific for your region you shouldn't have any issues, considering the hardware is exactly the same.
I think the biggest fear people faced on this forum was about possibly bricking the device since most of the carrier specific firmwares weren't publicly released yet.

Why does your signature stamp say you have the Note 2 for T-Mob. If you had the GS3, then your signature stamp would be the same as mine.

Looks like you're primarily on T-Mobile in which case if you i535 isn't active on vzw network it won't get the update. You can flash a ROM. But you have to be on the network for it to pull from their servers.

You probably will need to take it into a store and have them update it. Or root it and load a stock root rom.
Just installed from here, very easy.

That's the guide I would've linked you to, have you tried using both methods? I've never had to do it, so maybe posting this question in that thread might get you some good responses instead of screenshot advice.

Is it a SGH-i8160 ?
Hi yes it is I am trying to help my brother flash a custom rom on it with the little knowledge I have.
Do you know if the network will still work OK? And would you know why when he's downloading a rom using goo manager it downloads then just hangs on the md5 check. He's got stock 4.1.2 rooted.
Thanks

Which rom do you want to install?
If it's rooted already it should be fine. Try to look for the radio files for your device online.
