OK after trying a couple of ROMs and failing miserably and having to reload the stock Firmeware a couple of time i am getting tired of this. Even what Rom makers say it is W8 compatible i get screwed... It's not my first phone, was on a S3 before and did plenty of modding and Roms , but this S5 W8 is starting to give me headaches... Maybe it's me, maybe i'm stupid all of a sudden...
So Canadian owners of the S5 W8 what Roms are you using successful ? And how did you do it.
I know it was discussed before and the consensus was that a separate W8 Canadian section was not needed due to it's compatibility with the F version, but i think it is, maybe it's just me....
W8 Telus here. XtraSoLite for the last two weeks without any problem. Stock kernel. Blaze kernel didn't work for me so I gave up for now.

What Kernel did you use ? This one StockXXU1ANE2Kernel from the link in the Rom thread ?
I'm using alliance with blaze kernel and have had no problem flashing any thing else.What I did was flash super su via Odin to get root, then I installed mobile Odin and flashed latest twrp recovery. I backed up stock Rom then through Rom customizer I flashed alliance. Good luck.

Did you have the W8 version or the F ?

Are you still having difficulty? What are your steps? Maybe I could help?

Before you flash a ROM you should make a backup through recovery. In the case that the flash fails this will enable you to recover instead of ODIN restore

Thanks Salem , got the Alliance rom running ( still had the yellow kernel warning ) but it booted. Followed the steps you wrote.
I'm on the fido w8 and I tried just about every rom and blaze kernel everything worked. I'm back to stock with exposed though nothing beats it imo.

Newb here.
When you say stock with exposed .. can you clarify ?
Stock rom? or stock kernel? And is exposed a rom or just a framework you can install?
Cheers.
Stock, rom stock kernel only xposed framework and modules mainly wanam.

Is anyone on Bell ? what rom works ?
What's the best ?
I heard Omega is good ????
Is anyone else getting a persistent voicemail notification? I'm on the Rogers variant and some Googling has indicated that people using the AT&T/Sprint versions had the same issue. I'm on the latest update but this is still happening.
What Canadian Rom come whit Spanish whit it.

I know this is old but I happen to be playing with an s5 from bell right now. I'm on ressurection remix nougat and lineage os 14.1 nougat works as well. Flash cf root with Odin. Flash a custom recovery, I use TWRP. Go to the ressurection site and get the ROM, for you it will be klte. Reboot into recovery,wipe the phone, install ressurection remix. You also want the magisk 12.0 zip and manager APK. That's pretty much it. Custom rooted ROM running a lineage kernel. If you aren't familiar with lineage it's where the cyangoen team went. MIUI ROM works too but it's a slow download for not much reward. I've loaded lots of others but they require tweaks and fixes for things and I don't want you to need more help after the fact. Stick with one of the two I listed for the s5 and you will be ok. Also remember KLTE ROM. And as for how I'm on two roms that's a whole other story and probably not something you need to do.

I'm doing the same with my SM-900W8, but I'm finding the Camera app (in RR keeps crashing). I have no issues when I use the stock rom. The camera is the only problem I'm finding. It freezes (sometimes after the first couple photos) and then reboots. Are you having this issue? Likely not. Don't know if I'm missing something.

Download this. It's a different kernel. It fixes the bug.

Flash it from recovery.
Now that we can get Android 5.0 Rom on Note 4 AND there is Xposed framework for Android 5.0
I would like to ask if anyone tried it on Note 4 and if xposed still messes up S health and Private mode in the Stock Samsung 5.0 Rom ?
and if the fixes for it by wanama still work or they no longer needed etc ?
basically share your experience on Xposed on Note4 running Stock 5.0 rom ?

The third post is about it
So I stayed away from Lollipop due to silent mode being gone. Finally updated and sure enough hate the sounds modes. I saw there was an exposed module to bring back KitKat silent mode.
Been doing tons of research on this forum and other websites and can't find a clear answer. Does exposed work on the Verizon S5 on Lollipop?
Some sites say at first it didn't but it was then updated..then other sites say even the update won't work on touchwiz ROMS? Idk if that just means stock VZW ROMS or even custom touchwiz ROMS?? Very confusing
If anyone knows please let me know. Also if it WILL work are there instructions for this phone specifically. Any Xposed instructions I find mention booting to a customer recovery...and then I remembered hearing that safestrap doesn't work on Lollipop so idk
Sent from my SM-G900V using XDA Free mobile app
I've done many clean install of kitkat previously.. Every time I switch roms so I know my phone is always running the best it can. Did the same when installing lollipop last night..full charge over night and man is this battery life bad compared to kit kat..didn't use my phone much this morning and just used it for an hour or so now and I'm at 60%

Xposed afaik currently unofficially works with certain deodexed touchwiz roms
i'm using this version of xposed and it works fine. You do need to use FlashFire to flash the zip though give it a try just install the app then flash the zip.

Yes. Samsung has done some of their own tinkering with ART on lollipop which makes Xposed cause a bootloop. The unofficial version only works on Deodexed versions.
@aholeinthewor1d
If you want to use Xposed on TW Lollipop, you can use this ROM. Then you can go here to install Xposed.
Also, Safestrap DOES work on Lollipop, you just have to use a KitKat kernel to access it. This app/thread makes accessing Safestrap on Lollipop extremely easy. No need for a computer.
I was able to root my U.S. Cellular S7 Edge and to my understanding it has a locked boot loader. So I am able to root but not flash custom recovery or rom. Can anyone clarify this? Also because of this, does it mean I can not actually get Xposed on my phone now?
You can install Xposed, look for instructions in your model's forums. You can't get custom rooms in a normal way but a custom rooms has been made by replacing system files.
Im not sure if the latest version of xposed would work (86 build), older versions didnt work when i tried.

It does just use wanam's builds, found here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=37508.
Just wondering when it will be release for S6 Edge+ 6.0.1 ?
Wanam's xposed framework made for Samsung phones works perfectly for me on Pure Stock Extralite rom and Audax rom.

It takes about 5 mins to boot after flashing it in recovery so be patient. You'll know it's working when it comes up with a screen saying "updating apps" this can take a while too depending on how many apps you have on your phone.
