Well there is only 1 ATT based rom to choose from and 2 ports on the 5.0 right now. I am running TMS5 v2.1 and love it. I get great battery life (depending if i'm playing games on the phone or not). IMO alliance and Twi5ted are a little buggie. I've ran both and am in no means putting them down cause they both are great but i guess because they are ported to the ATT phone you will run into problems here and there with them. Here's a link to TMS v2.0. To get the v2.1 you'll just have to ask someone which page it is on because it was never put in the OP cause its not a full rom, just an update.

Awesome, good to know..!! Guess i'll stay on this L5.02 for a bit longer since i just upgraded it two days ago.

Galaxy s crashing going to flash new rom

Hi guys
My wife's sags crash all the time and I'm thinking of flashing a new rom onto it. I've not spent much time on the sgs side of things and was wondering could someone point me to a lightweight reliable and close stock in appearance rom ?
Thanks guys
Why not just flash a newer version?

I have tried she's up to the most recent version her phone gets 2.3.5
Most current is now 2.3.6.
I would flash Galaxydroid v 3.3 its a pretty little rom, has great battery life and simple to use yet giving it a little bit of the custom feel if she wanted to. I used this rom myself and had no issues with it at all. Not quite stock, but worth a go. Just follow the instructions and you'll be fine.

Just scroll down the older versions and go for 3.3. V 5 is pretty much the same, but I found 3.3has better battery life

New user, some advice

Hey
I just bought this phone off a friend. still in very good condition and im happy with it.
It appears to be stock sony rom, with masses of bloat and clutter, and the battery usage is just average at best so im thinking i probably need a custom rom.
android 4.4.4
kernel 3.4.0
build .14.4.a.0.157
im not sure if bootloader is locked or unlocked.
I would like to get a better rom on this phone with less bloat and hopefully an improvement on battery life, can anyone advise whats best to do.
Thanks.
CyanogenMod is the most popular ROM

as I dont like tinkering with firmwares yet, after a few hours of research ive just rooted and flashed DstrikerZ1 Kai ROM 3.2 [BETA RELEASE][3-Dec-2014], fingers crossed it works ok. hopefully can flash lollipop at some stage

What Rom are you guys running?

What roms are you guys running and/or what would you recommend? What are your opinions on them? I am currently using Rapture.. Its not a bad rom at all but I believe its not giving me the battery life I want..
You want battery life go with poprocks rom. Cleaned up version of touchwiz and if you use greenify it adds a lot more.
AOSP i think cyanogemod would be the best, but i had problems in the past with cyanogen so i'm rocking with pop. give it a try.
Project Infinity
I'm running teks tekxodus and it's amazing. At first I was sceptical of all the theme mods done to it since they're usually the kind of mods that effect performance but it's the first lollipop rom I've been able to get 5 hour sot easy. That's also with xposed installed and app settings with my dpi at 480. I'm finally content with lollipop again not to mention the cool themes I can use now
If you don't follow the devs instructions then u can try another rom and when the same thing happens then you have to finally admit it is you that might be the issue. If a dev wants clean install and you dirty flash u can't complain.
BAD ASS NOTE 4
Can't go wrong with Poprocks.

I do miss the stock Samsung features, camera and s health especially, but after getting the speed of cm, I couldn't go back lol.
Im just started trying out darthstalker rom
I am using @TEKHD 's TEKXodus N4 URv3.3 and it really is an amazing piece of work. It is a very customized rom with lots of features but at the same time, it doesn't feel customized. Meaning it feels like this is how the phone should have been released which is an amazing thing. If you want to feel like you are installing a brand new rom that is different from stock but at the same time feel comfortable with everything, give it a try. After you are on it for a bit and get used to everything, you won't be able to go back to stock.

I'm a big fan of the Stock Deodexed rom. All the samsung features work great, with the flexibility to run xposed and theme and tune touchwiz to your liking.

I'm currently running Miui 7 on my Canadian Note 4. Runs like a charm and it its a fresh new look and feel to the Android I love lol.

Currently on TEKXodus N4 URv5 for my N910T. Closely waiting for URv6.x to settle down before upgrading.
Running [5.1.1][N910TUVU2DOK2][N910T/W8][N910T3] N5 Express 2.5D. I feel like my battery life has regressed since the 1.x version which was based on the Sprint 5.1.1 ROM, but it's still acceptable. I've been too busy with life to really try troubleshooting it (clean reflash) or to try any other ROMs.

Most stable G906S rom for my wife ;)

Hi.
I gave my G906S to my wife last year. I made my own ROM which was based off the stock 4.4.2.
I would like to update her phone but being my wife she needs something very stable and has good battery life.
Please recommend me a ROM.
Stock lolipop

No longer being developed but based on latest stock lollipop; it's stable and the battery life is the best I've experienced on LP. If you're looking for something near stock, optimized, with some of the bloat removed, I recommend this rom.

I installed Cm12.1 and boeffla kernel for my wife's G900f.
She likes the pink/black themes available and batterylife and performance is good.
No bugs.

Thanks folks, I ended up installing NovaRom_V1.5.5, and now I have to listen to her complain everyday about something ... when I tested it, it all seemed good.
I'll look in to Cm12.1
NaraeWiz V7.3 seems to be Korean.

It is Korean although I have it installed in English, and it's the closest to stock available. Of course, it has the stock Korean-English keyboard which I need - forgot about that - although it can be replaced with alternatives.
If your wife prefers stable, stock TW, you could try @xXx's Barebone's Cleaner: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-urwsoft-barebone-cleaner-t3043479
It's one of the fastest ways to debloat. I've used it in the past on my g906s. Stock LP 5.0.1 kinda sucks though but basically bug free except for the color fade issue.

Best Rom for Galaxy s5

Hi i am just wondering if anyone here can give me there opinion on best custom rom? I basically want it to be as fast as possible with the longest battery life possible. I am super use to android 6.01 and dont mind having same user interface like standard s5. I still would like NFC and GPS to work along with all google apps. I have the SM-G900I model. Not sure if if my computer is a problem but i have a super old laptop from 2007. It has a 1.7ghz celeron cpu and i'm running windows 7 on it.
The best rom is rom based on stock rom like xtrestolite. Good batterie very smooth its the best of the best for me Now im testing NEMESIS_REBORN V 5.6. Its okii
Debloated, Xposed and rooted Stock!

Best choice for the S5 is a stock based MM ROM, any debloated version with root and Boeffla kernel in my opinion. So you make the best experience and all things work exactly as they should - best camera and audio functions, fast and smooth working and a long battery life. I've tested so much ROMs on it and I always came back to 6.0.1. It's of little use to me to have the latest version of Android when I constantly have to deal with errors and notice that this phone is simply overloaded with it.

Hi, I plan to install the rom xtrestolite that you mention, but I have a doubt, the g900fd model does not appear, will there be any problem in installing the g900f model?, I would greatly appreciate your answer.
I am currently using the official stock rom 6.0.1, but I don't like the application overload that the phone brings

The latest xtestrolite ROM was only for the G900H (Exynos). If you are seaching for a useless and debloated stock ROM for the G900F, try to flash the Alexandr ROM v5.9, see here. Flash the Boeffla kernel 2.5, choose CPU governor "smartmax". This kernel and its configuration tool you found in the latest posts in the very long thread about this ROM, posted by me.
