Looking desparately for a Samsung S4 I9500 Lollipop (5.0.X) Stock ROM TouchWiz screenshots of:
1. Phone application while in call.
2. While in call and keypad open.
I tried almost everything but no Luck! And I just got to put my hand on ASAP...
Any idea how to get such screenshots before february??
Thanks!
It looks exactly the same as other 5.0 tw phones like S5
Check out the previews/reviews on youtube. There were a couple.
You might also take a look at the s5 versions since they will be similar.
Sound like a good direction, but what makes you so sure the exact UI is the same on both S4 & S5 ?
Now, I found on XDA forums the rom:
[GT-I9500ZCUJOA3]AP3900764-QB3709712_CP1859016-QB3536216 by RBS
Which is I9500, lollipop, and seem to be stock rom. Yet I am not sure it has english in it and that I would be able later to use my phone... Kinda risky!
And I think many people would gain from more S4 Lollipop screenshots being published, as soon as possible... So, if you got one

Video comparison between kitkat s4 and lollipop s4
A second video comparing kitkat and lollipop
Those videos are older and the look might have changed. But it might give you an idea.
And I suggested that the UI is the same on both, s4 and s5, because, from what I saw, the samsung lollipop on s4 looks a lot like the UI of the kitkat s5.
Also, I wouldn't recommend installing the leaked version as I saw several threads where people reported losing their IMEI number and other problems. Either go custom or wait for an official samsung update.
can not find lollipop rom for s4

can you please share its link..........
Hello,
I was wondering if, since the official Lollipop rom is available for AT&T since last week for the G900A.
I wanted to know if it is possible to install the Touchwiz rom from AT&T in my cricket galaxy S 5 ?
Because I am afraid that Cricket will never release Android Lollipop (I still have Android 4.4.2 ...)
Thanks a lot for your help
Regards
Edit: I asked Cricket and they will , with high probability, NOT update their devices to lollipop !
Hello,
I recently bought an S5 Active off of Ebay and I'm using the bring your own phone plan on cricket wireless. Currently my phone is on 4.4.2 kit kat, and I know that lollipop has been released for a while, but my phone tells me that it is up to date. Is there any way I can update? I'm completely new to the world of ROMS and all this other stuff, so any help would be appreciated!
I asked this question on toms hardware and got a response saying
"definitely do not upgrade your phone over the air if you have 4.4.2 and it is a galaxy s5.
s5's that are on 4.4.2 kitkat are not bootloader locked and are highly desireable in aftermarket sale. your best bet if you "want" lollipop is to root and do a custom rom like cyanogen 12/13. i think there is even a 6.0 marshmellow rom too.
otherwise if you upgrade to stock over the air 5.0+ you will be bootloader locked, unable to ever revert back to kitkat, and unable to root and do a custom rom. 9 months later and nobody has cracked the bootloader and at this point it is likely nobody ever will with 6.0 marshmellow around the corner.
because of that your phone is probably worth $50-100 more than a 5.0+ s5 for that reason... there are those out there that would love to get their hands on your phone and root it and will pay more since you are still on kitkat and fully unlocked."
Honestly, I have no idea what that means so if anybody could help me out I would greatly appreciate it!
dose anyone know if there's root for the galaxy s 5 g900a the problem is I bought the phone used and the person that owned it be four me took the latest Ota update to android 5.0.... and from what I read on line a month or so back...if u have the at&t s5 running lollipop u better get used to a stock phone.... please help!! thanks in advance!
Yep, iirc, Lollipop locks the bootloader of the G900A, so if you're not rooted and are running Lollipop, you're stuck
in less I down grade.....witch I can't do with out root....feal like I'm stuck with my old htc....thanks for the reply anyway
Zs
locked down enough safestaps no good?...sorry I'm just speaking to hear my self talk at this point...this is my first s5 and until now iv been loving this phone......but i guess the bright side is I won't be adding this phone to my big pile of hard bricked devices.....
I rooted My S5 with this link https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...oot-method-t3561529/post71202995#post71202995 but now I can't get Samsung cloud, Samsung Sync or Samsung backup to work. I have search the Web for a stock ROM to extract those files from but no luck. Is there a way to upgrade to Marshmallow 6.0 and still keep root? The link that I used says you can flash Marshmallow but will loose root.
I would be happy with a rooted stock Marshmallow and may get back the Samsung account.
So my question , "Is there any way to upgrade from rooted lollipop to a rooted Marshmallow ? This link says you can, but I am not sure if it will work with the Toshiba chip.http://www.samsungsfour.com/tutoria...0v-verizon-on-marshmallow-6-0-1-firmware.html
Can anyone give me some thought and advise ?
Thanks for your time.

Nah bro that won't work you will get stuck on the Verizon screen with the Toshiba chipset but here try this link maybe it can help you out kind of bc this is the closes you're going to get to root on Verizon's locked bootloaders https://forum.xda-developers.com/ve...ow-to-flash-custom-6-0-1-roms-locked-t3393943
Thanks GUNSEY101, atleast now I know for sure and not just guessing and wondering. I think it is about time to trash this phone and buy a new one.
This one has been a pain in my bottom ever since I bought it.
Thank you for the help and clearing up the rooted MM delima.
Scotty
No problem dude glad I could help the sm-g900v is a great phone......When it doesn't have the Toshiba chipset otherwise you're right it's a pain so I'd say get a new one hahaha
Up that Toshiba chip is the downfall of the phone. I like the S5 a lot and have tried to live with it because I don't think the S6 or s7 is really a upgrade. So I don't really know what phone I will get but it will not be a Verizon.
Thanks again for your help
Scotty
Oh yeah I love my S5 luckily it doesn't have the Toshiba chipset haha and yes the Toshiba chip kinda ruined it bt Verizon has a huge stick up there asses hahaha and Meh I'd say s7 is a bit of an upgrade due to the fact they found a way to root 7.0 however it's very experamental right I'd say https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-galaxy-s7/how-to/how-rooted-s7-nougatand-fixed-lag-t3576393
