Compatibility

Parts do appear to be interchangable between it and other variants. Some further testing and a list of possible components are needed, not only for this device.

Outdated firmware

Only some carriers ever pushed the latest update, flashing a different CSC for the same region works fine and shouldn't impact software compatibility.
