Upgrading and custom ROM support



Hello, I purchased a new SM-G900P off ebay out of China which came rooted with KitKat installed. I can only assume they put this ROM on to make it universal. It's worked well in general, but I have been having some annoyances with it lately, particularly when related to roaming and some chinese characters that just persist (the CSC codes are CHN and TGY). I would like to upgrade to Lollipop and install one of the custom ROMs that look to be awesome.

My question is: how do I deal with this phone? I can't tell if a recovery is already installed. Can I wipe the phone and upgrade to Lollipop? Should I remove and re-initiate the root access? I am new to android but I've done a ton of reading and I'm quite tech savvy, so if someone can point me in the right direction I would be very appreciative!!
