Hi, im new to this flashing and rom thing.

Pure as in vanilla?
Actually I don't know what version vanilla is. I have the S5 with touchwiz I only just want the Android look like a nexus. Don't like the touchwiz design.

Download both and place them on your phone or the sd card. Boot into twrp/cwm and factory reset. Flash CM, then gapps. Boot up and you're done.

Sure, you can do a nandroid within cwn/twrp but once you flash something, Knox will forever be broken.
Be aware, the cyanogen ROM is a heavily modified ROM based only on kitkat which bares little resemblance to a pure google kit kat rom the likes of what you would find on a nexus device.

When I go to xtrestrolite I can see on the first page, images 4 and 5 that it still have the touchwiz design and color.
I want, when I drag down the notification bar and all the main setting that it look like nexus style.

Use a custom launcher and icon pack to change that I`am using XtreStoLite myself and i can recommend it to anybody, very fluid, fast and lots of usefull features. Or flash a theme from the Apps and Theme thread.
I tried with a Nova launcher. But I can not change the overall touchwiz design.

You need a Theme or custom rom for that. Why don`t you buy a Nexus device if that is what you want?

Because I like the specs and phone design by Samsung but not happy with the touchwiz design.
I could by a nexus. But very hard to change specs and phone design.

I think CM11 or any other AOSP/AOKP rom is whats best for you, look in the Unified Development thread and just try out some roms and keep the one you like most.

High maintenance? You seem resistant to making even a minimal effort here. Things that you want generally don't just materialize in front of you because you want them. The XtreStroLite is what you asked for. 99% TW removed and as close to Nexus as you can get without buying a Nexus. Which is probably what you should have done in the first place.
You're quibbling over minor aesthetic issues. And as gee suggested all you have to do is download a theme pack for Nova and the only way you could tell that you weren't holding a Nexus would be the bezel.

Dont know what you meen about not doing an affort, ??
I have tryed to install XtreStroLite and others, XtreStroLite, still have the Greenish "control" color and design, installing nova launcher do not change that.!
All im asking if i can make the main design NOT look like touchwiz, do not care about all the samsung apps, i can just hide them..
I do not what it to look like nexus!, i just want to remove the greenish touchwiz design..
CM11 has removed it perfectly, and made it black. But what i what is make it look like google's design greyish. Like nexus?
If i can not ask questing like that in here, then i do not know why the forum is here.

Best 4.4.4 ROM for my cappy so far. Works flawlessly. Very smooth. Thank you so much for porting it.

I ported this rom to my nexus also. Never received permission to host, however, the dev of this ROM in specific was considerate enough to allow. I built the base ROM but genie reserves the credit for the ported ROM. I never tried any ROMs but my stock cm11 build and this port, which is far more fluid/stable. Enjoy

With same base as DayDream? Can you share that too? DayDream's white default theme is making some cm11 themes not work properly, as in the settings' background theme colour remains white along with the blue black gradient statusbar the same even when applying other themes.

In love with both these ROMs. Thanks a million.
Hi all, I do not use any Samsung stuff. Not even the spen. But I like touchwiz's stability and performance. Which of the TW based rom can be flashed with the least bloatware, through AROMA or not, Omega, Aryamod, Civato, Darklord, Audex, ....or others?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2649176
Read that roms info .
One person's bloat is another person's essential app. Just flash a ROM you like and debloat it yourself.

Omegas install gives you the option to debloat the rom. Closest I got to totally debloated touchwiz.

And can you remap the buttons and use a dark theme ?
I would love to us a aosp rom but i want the good quality camera and to be able to use s health

Well, the best way to do this, is of course by rooting your phone and installing any TW-based custom rom you like. Debloated, deodexed and including any samsung app you like to install during the aroma installation process.

Yeah ive done that already but im struggling to find dark themes and to remap buttons
You should try out resurrectionremix, which is real aosp. As for touchwiz, you can only use a custom launcher, a darker theme and install Google Apps, although that will be all you can change on touchwiz.

yeah i used rr but the camera is not as good this is my problem i know you can make shealth work now on aosp but the camera quality is just not as good thats why i want a dark theme for tw i have managed to remap buttons and get everything else now its just the theme
Regarding camera quality, you can use htc camera on AOSP roms. Ultra fast focus and great quality. The only problem is it crashes here and then..although o hadn't installed it for a while now. So it may be even more stable on newest nightlies. Otherwise it is the best.
Use Dual Boot Patcher app to install ResurrectionRemix in dual boot with your TW-based ROM. If you want to take good photos, reboot into the TW ROM, and for everything else, use RR ROM

You can go back to oreo.
All you need:
• Windows
• Odin flashing tool
• Oreo Firmware for your Device / Country
• And a little of your Time
If you search on google you will see tons of how to's
But please be aware that you have to Factory reset if you are downgrading.

Yes, buy another brand.
In my opinion the only childish thing about one ui are the Icons. The samsung specific apps seem very thought through and mature to me.
Install a third party launcher like nova, install some icon pack that fits your needs and you are good to Go.
