Now I want to activate peek and some other cool things, but can't find them in the settings. i've got paranoid Android 5.1

Because those features aren't in any 5.x builds yet. There are a few options and they are located in their respective sections of settings making them look like stock Android options.

ressurection 4.1 jb

a few things that had me thinking:
1) does anyone feel this update makes the text on the screen a bit more pixelated. it doesnt seem as sharp as ics.
2) there a load of options missing from the rom control like power option no screenshot ability?
3) lockscreen only 3 targets show. no option in opntions to set more than three,.
Firstly, you could have simply posted a reply over at Resurrection Remix's thread instead of creating a thread about your opinions here.
Secondly, the current Jelly Bean version of RR ROM is based on AOKP's nightly builds - which means that many things are still under development.
Things may be missing currently like what you've mentioned but you may look forward to future releases when more features and customizable options would be back.
Furthermore, Android Jelly Bean source codes are just released not long ago. You can't rush things to be done up so quickly, dude.
+ Regarding screenshot, c'mon, you can just press Volume Down Key + Power Key for it.
This bloke is ridiculous. You try make a ****ing ROM. Go on give it a shot. It's really not that easy you d!ck.

Clearly wasn't thinking when you made a new thread for this though
I think he was desperate to earn more posts since he has only made 6 so can't post on RR threads. But that doesn't stop him from reading RR op and faq.
If u earn ur stripes to post do be careful in what u post. It needs to be helpful or new or something that has not been covered. Learn from this or i will have to set pigmachine on u.
Why don't use just bloody flash rr 2.6.1 if u won't all the rom control features?
Main ROM : RR AOKP 2.6.1
2nd Rom : RR JB 3.03
KERNEL : Dorimanx 5.64 new
Modem : LQ6
Root app: SuperSu

1. It customizes the look of the device; sort of.
2. No.
3. No.
4. Recoveries that you can boot into; flashing ROMs.
5. CM10.
If you want more detailed info, search for it, it's literally all over XDA.
Question 2
Explain number 4 a little more and tell me what a flashing rom is please
lol. Those were some pretty short answers.
A ROM is the operating system of the phone. Android is open source so anyone can customize the OS and make changes. Those can be performance changes, having certain apps installed by default (or removed in most cases since cell companies load Android phones with so much crap), visual changes by modifying the stock theme, or complete re-writes as is the case with MIUI. If you like iOS then you would probably feel very at home moving to an MIUI based ROM
A Theme can usually be installed onto any ROM and it just modified the way the OS looks.
The recovery is where you boot the device into in order to flash a custom ROM or kernel, or some system apps, or things like that. You use TWRP or CWM as a replacement for the limited and locked down stock recovery that the phone/tablet comes with.
Be sure to look at what features come with a ROM before deciding. Many early ROMs are labelled as alpha or beta builds and usually contain lots of bugs and have missing things and some areas that dont even work at all. Nexus devices usually dont have alpha ROMs though since they work 100% with Google source and have no cracking to do because nothing is locked down at all.

By recovery what do you mean like revert it back to factory setting what is it used for, thank you for good awnsers! btw

Last existing version of Tablet UI?

I've been looking everywhere online to find some information on previous releases, in particular Paranoid Android, but there doesn't seem to be any archive or list.
Several years ago I had the best version of PA which had the PA settings, Tablet Ui, hybrid options, etc. I am trying to downgrade to that version but I can't for the life of me find out which it was.
Can anyone help me?

Last version of PA for android 4.3 is what you want, it should be PA 3.99.
Edit:
Found it, here's the direct link for PA 3.99 RC2, I believe this is the one: https://goo.im/devs/paranoidandroid/roms/grouper/pa_grouper-3.99-RC2-20130921.zip/

Rom wth User Profile built in

Is there a ROM for the retail verizon version that has built in Profiles.?I've been away from my S5 for awhile so I haven't been following ROM development for about 6 months.. But now I want to add a 2nd user. I'm currently doing that with the Xposed multiuser module. But I'd like to update my ROM and find one if I can with profiles baked in. I've done some (lots of) searching, but have only found CM11 but as near as I can tell it can't be installed on the Verizon variant because of the locked boot loader. I don't need a lot of info just the name of any ROM's that I can then research myself.
No one is using/tried a rom with multi-user profiles on this device or is there not one?
Thanks for any help with this.
MOAR!!!!
Thanks, I'll check it out.

Need help for building Android 8.1 Rom.

I need WPS feature and spoof location for daily work but as our Lavender comes with Android 9. It's not possible. I searched for way arounds but nothing seemed to work. So I'm thinking to build a AOSP ROM running Android 8.1.
I don't know where to start from. Anyone can give a headstart?
