5.0 or 6.0.1 - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just got my S5 g900f! It's on 5.0, I want to load CM. Should I leave on 5.0 or upgrade to 6.0.1? Does it make difference?

Why would you not just go to Nougat?

CM 14 is out? Or did you mean stock Samsung TW?

Not yet. Still unofficial builds for now.
As for 5.0 vs. 6.0, 6.0 is definitely the better stock ROM choice for battery life and overall smoothness.
CM13 has some battery drain issues in the latest builds.

CM14.1 works great for me. No problem with BT or anything else.

Thanks so Sounds like upgrade to 6.0 prior to installing CM?

Yes.
Always best to upgrade the bootloader to the latest before flashing any custom ROM.

Thanks all for the help. Rooted it, installed TWRP, then installed CM13 and gapps. So far do great. Everything seems very smooth. This is still a capable phone isn't it?

Rom closest to vanilla Android like nexus 5?

Hi there I'm running rooted stock 4.2.2 and want a rom that is closest to the look and feel of a nexus 5 but still has features such as LG remote and KnockOn while also have the always listening 'okay Google' feature of the nexus 5/Moto X. What are my options? Help would be much appreciated!

Paranoid Android 4.0 is probably about the closest you'll get to KitKat. It doesn't appear to have the always listening feature, but it's a great ROM. I think it's the closest thing you can get to a stock Nexus 5 without actually buying the N5.
CM 11.

Mahdi ROM best ROM for g2 my opinion

CM11 is the correct answer. PA has a bunch of add-ons, as does Mahdi.

Any ideas on why I am having issues with LG G2 d800 rooted and unlocked using TWRP to flash some ROMS? I can flash...
CleanROM-SE-2.0
CyanogenMod 10.2
CyanogenMod 10.2.0-RC1-d800
with no problems, but when I try just about any other ROM, I get a red "failed" almost immediately after starting the flash.
Thank You!

Not true, Houstons PA builds have less customisation than CM11, yes in the future PA will have more than cyanogen (as it has before) but at the minute, PA is nearly stock, apart from helpful kernel tweaks.

Ok what version of TWRP do you have installed. TWRP 2.6.3.2 has problems Fashing 4.4 ROMs and will say failure I know because the same thing happens to me. But if you upgrade to TWRP 2.6.3.3 you should be able to flash 4.4 ROMs no problem.

Awesome, I'll give that a shot.
Thx
Thanks for the replies both PA and CM look great, I have no problems with either of them, the thing is I still want
some of the stock LG features like KnockOn (And Off) and QuickRemote as well as compatibility with the LG cover for the phone.
Is it possible to have all of this in a rom?

The s6 or note 4 ROM are slow and laggy on s5. Always choose based on stock s5(slower than cm but more functions, better camera, fingerptint) or cm12.1/13 (fastest)

Has anyone used 7.0 and VoLTE on Verizon?

Stock 7.0, the recently released build. I have had no issues with call quality, drops or simultaneous voice and data.
Simultaneous voice and data, as well as VoLTE work for me on Resurrection Remix 7.1.2 and it's now working for me on stock Nougat 7.0. Hope this helps!
