If you don't like the ROM, don't use it.
Don't bash the ROM because of your inability in understanding how to use the ROM.
Don't expect much help from others if you're going to be bashing a ROM. It's rude to both users and developers.
Why don't you just NANDROID your current ROM, flash the full GAPPS.zip, and restart the phone?
That way, you can find the answer out for yourself AND could have saved the space on the forum and time you needlessly used to ask the question.
In short, just flash GAPPS. You should be fine.

2. Download Overcome 1.2.1 ROM and its custom recovery
3. Flash both
4. Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache
5. Download stock honeycomb theme from here
6. Using recovery flash from internal storage
ENJOY
Who said it isnt good to be normal?
SIMPLIFIED FOR NOOBS:
NOTE: IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT ODIN IS, OR WHAT TAR FILES ARE OR HOW TO TAKE YOUR TAB TO DOWNLOAD MODE, REMEMBER, NEITHER DID I, AND I AM DUMBER THAN YOU, SO YOU WILL GET BY. JUST BROWSE THRU OR ASK ANY MOD ( ) UNDERSTAND HOW THINGS WORK AND COME BACK, OR FOLLOW THE STEPS IN THE LINKS BELOW TO THE DOT.
Go to this thread:
[6.Oct.2011][ROM][P75xx] ◄► Overcome 10.1 Series v1.2.1 ◄► Recovery v5.1.2.3 ◄►
Thank you alterbridge86
Do exactly as it says, you might have to download up to 1GB of files and you will be redirected to another link which will give you an equally detailed guide of how to do it.
Once done, if you do end up on your home screen again, you've made it.
Next go to this thread:
[THEME]*AOSP HONEYCOMB*v1.3*SO DARK, SO AOSP*(16.10.2011)
Thank Vertumus!
Follow the steps there and you will reboot to a fully stock experience.
WHY INSTALL THE OVERCOME CUSTOM ROM?
Because alterbridge did a smashing job at keeping the OS as stock as possible, he even included a few things like books and the stock music player alongside the samsung one. He kept the kernel stock for people repulsed with custom kernels, and using his rom you'd get amazing speed and battery life, thats the reason its one step over the stock rom.
WHAT IS THE OTHER ADVANTAGE OF INSTALLING THE STOCK THEME OVER THE alterbridge86's ROM?
Because Overcome is fast, lethally fast, and the stock theme removes the irritating and slow dock from the UI, hence taking up lesser memory and speeding up operations more.

Hi newman2015:
First of all, that can void you warranty since you will root and install a custom recovery on the S5 (Of course it depends on your region).
If you want a more stable and mature ROM, then go for Kitkat, some ROMS out there have great MODs like the Dragon KK CM11 rom.
On the other hand if you want to try something new and new capabilities then go for Lollipop, there are great variants out there and they are getting more stable each day, but expect issues.
I have tried several of them but the best for LP are Bliss, Dragon, CM12 from albino887 (UNNOFICIAL)... For KK i recomend Dragon ROM, Liquid Smooth and Vanir, all of them with great customization, but that's my personal suggestion.
I hope this helped.
Best! :highfive:
there r alot options i need know which one support my phone cuz if i am not wrong in need rom with G900FXU1ANG7

Hi newman2015:
Since you have the International variant of S5, you can flash any of those ROMs that I mentioned earlier, if you need further assistance don't hesitate to ask.
Best! :good:

Hi newman2015:
Of course. IF YOU WANT FIND A GUIDE WITH IMAGES, just google it. But the basic steps are as follow.
- Always do a backup!!, since you can lost everything (CONTACTS, FILES, PHOTOS, ETC.)
- Download a stock image in case that anything goes wrong, that way you can boot you S5 once again
- Download ODIN, that way you can boot you S5 once again and just in case
- Download your desired ROM to your PC
- Download GAPPS to your PC (remember to download KK GAPPS)
- First of all follow the guide to root and install a custom recovery (Chainfire CF-Root, don't do anything extra FOLLOW THE GUIDE and you will be safe)
- Once you have root and a custom recovery and you booted into ANDROID OS, transfer the ROM and GAPPS to your phone
- Remember to do a backup!!
- Find your APN settings in your current ROM and take note of then, back up them, etc.
- Turn off your phone and press HOME, POWER and VOLUME UP button to boot into RECOVERY
- Find the option WIPE
- Swipe to do a Factory Reset (you will start clean... )
- Once it finish, select the option BACK (DON'T SELECT FORMAT DATA OR ADVANCED WIPE)
- Select the OPTION INSTALL
- Navigate to the directory where you saved the ROM and GAPPS
- First select THE ROM FILE
- Select the OPTION ADD MORE ZIPs
- Select GAPPS file
- Swipe to begin...
- Wait a little... a little more...
- If you don't receive errors select the OPTION FLASH DALVIK and CACHE (Just to be safer)
- Select the option REBOOT
- Enjoy your new ROM
- Restore your APN settings, contacts, etc.
Hope it helps
Best!
P.D. To be honest I can't remember if the hebrew option is there, but my guess is that it is

[Q] Flashing a Google play edition ROM to the SM-G900F

I'm trying to convert my SM-900F to the Google play vanilla android version, I've seen some old tutorials for loading an old Kit-Kat ROM onto the device, but I'm currently on Lollipop, so...
1. Would loading a 4.4 version ROM even work?
2. Would I then be able to OTA update to Lollipop?
3. Is there any other way to get a "clean" Google ROM?
(Yes, I know I can just install CM, but I do prefer stock google to CM)

0. Try to post in the correct section next time, there is a Q&A subforum for the s5
1. Yes there is, get a stock rom from sammobile and flash it via odin. Make sure to wipe data first.
2. Yup, provided you don't make any modifications such as root or flash a custom recovery/rom/kernel.
3. Please specify what you mean by clean google rom.. do you mean a rom with only google apps?

Thanks Akalsemann,
I'm new here so I wasn't sure where this thread should go
As for a "clean Google ROM", I meant a "Google play edition" ROM, i.e. no touchwiz or Samsung bloat. Googling around a bit more, it seems these never really existed for the S5, only the S4
(I'd link to an arstechnica article titled "Don’t cry for the Google Play edition program; it was already dead" but can't since I'm a new user)
I guess I'll install CM and be done with it, as the phone is painfully sluggish out of the box, often taking SECONDS to display the app-switcher screen.

Gapps?

Yeah so I've had my Nexus 6p for awhile and been running stock but I recently thought about rooting. Upon downloading a gapps package, I noticed they are not the same like they used to be previous to marshmallow. Anyone care to help me out on why or is there a more stock like package that will work on most current Roms that has most of the Google apps by default... Thanks in advance
Not sure why you need GApps to root your device, but anyway... Have you been looking at Open GApps? It's pretty much just a list of different packages for different uses by processor architecture & android version. If you want to choose which apps are installed select aroma. As you seem to want stock there's a selection for that or for 'full'.
I second Open Gapps, they're very flexible. I also second the confusion over what gapps has to do with root.
Guess I worded that wrong. The gapps wasn't for root bit for the custom ROM. I know I don't need gapps for root, I've been flashing for 3 to 4 years, and lately I've been on a stock kick. But that's probably about to change..

Recently updated my old Nexus 10/Manta to OmniROM 6.0.1 and I couldn't be happier. I had a fair bit of messing around on the first try until I got the sequence right...full wipe, flash ROM, flash Gapps pico and everything works REALLY well.
However, installing nightly updates is the same for me as the initial flash...I have to do a full wipe or I get the Google Services loop.
Am i doing something wrong is that how nightlies work currently?
Thanks.

Hi,
i'm rather new with rooting, flashing and all the stuff that comes with it.
Now i have an Oppo Find7 and i managed to install the following:
-TWRP recovery
-OmniRom 5.1 nightly
-Gapps 5.1
I'm pleased everything worked but now i saw OmniRom 6.0, when i tried to flash it with gapps i encountered the first problem:
-The install of OmniRom went well but when i try to install Gapps 6.0 stock, it is saying i dont have enough storage? Can i somehow increase or free up this storage to it can fit?
Second question: If the above is possible, is there a way to flash OmniRom 6.0 and Gapps 6.0 without the loss of data? or do i still have to backup and restore with titanium backup?
Thanks in advance

Hi there,
I have a Nexus 7 2013 wifi. Latest omni marshmallow but I have one issue. Battery drain.
It seems as it does not suspend. Maybe someone could point me in the right direction to help squash this pesky bug.
What I can add is that I have a Nexus 5 with same apps and settings without the issue .
Thank you

I just upgraded from ZTE Maven running Android 5.1, to a Galaxy Express 3 running Android 6.0.1. love the phone, but for one thing. I playing a game called Walking War Robots. It played good on the 5.0, but really lags bad on the 6.0.1.. I thought the better phone would be better but it's worse. I've also noticed that the graphics are better for the 6.0.1, including shadows for robots, etc. I believe it adds to the problem. What I'd like to know, is there a way to improve the performance of my phone to get rid of the lag, or is there a way to disable enhanced graphics and make the game think I'm running 5.0 to get rid of the shadows and enhanced graphics. I can do without robot shadows for the sake of smooth gameplay. Any help will be greatly appreciated... YodaXIII
password reset?
I decided to try the official Nougat for my 6P. Before going there, I made a TWRP backup, which I used "adb pull" to get to my computer. After trying Nougat and deciding I didn't like it, I went back to Omnirom from the TWRP backup. At boot it asks for the decryption password, which works fine, and omnirom starts up correctly. It then prompts me for password after restart, and it insists that I enter the wrong one. What options do I have to get past this, other than a clean install and then recover my apps/data from backups?
[edit: solved it] I entered the file manager of TWRP and removed /data/system/locksettings* After this, the next reboot required decryption password, as expected, but did not require a lockscreen password, so all was fine and I could again set a new lockscreen protection.
I have a micromax unite 4 pro (Q465) but on google there is no recovery img for any recovery I request u to help me how can I install a custom recovery to flash a zip filee please help me
