LOS & gapps - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on LOS nightly. Do you guys regularly update gapps? I know moving from one build to another you need to but what about in between? Thanks

Meh I'd say that's up to you if want to update it you don't have to unless as you said moving from one build to another. But the gapps are updated pretty regularly usually every few days. Heres the link to the gapps that can be used on the S5 if want to update it https://github.com/opengapps/arm/releases

Thanks!

Vs980 where to go from here?

I finally decided to drop my beloved galaxy nexus. The N5 seemed like the next phone of my dreams but couldn't stand the thought of losing my unlimited plan so G2 seemed like the next logical choice. I have been reading as much as I can and still having a hard time wrapping my head around things. Here is where I am at:
Bought phone from swappa appeared to be in new condition as advertised with plastic still on the phone.
Not sure if the phone was updated ota by the seller but the software and baseband were 12b out the box not rooted.
I rooted successfully with latest I0root method.
Installed loki patched twrp 2.6.3.3 successfully via freegee method. Full nand backup of rooted stock. Backed up imie with freegee and imie and other partitions via flashable zip method.
So where do I go from here? Is it safe to flash any VS980 rom from this point?

Yes you should be good to go from that point forward.

I have yet to install a custom rom or I could let you know. I have however upgraded to philz recovery and successfully installed dorimanx kernels. Got a little busy messing with exposed modules as well. I wanted to make sure I have all my essentials backed up before messing with roms and have the appropriate files and drivers working in case something goes wrong. I tried to install malladus yesterday and the install failed but I want to say the download was bad as it took forever. I had no issues with restore. I'll report back if I have any luck.

If you want some KitKat love, try out Mahdi ROM with the latest furnace kernel. Very very stable on my vs980.
Sent from my LG-VS980 using Tapatalk
You've bought the right device, aside from some unreleased phone of course. I too came from the gnex and I love this thing. Go install some AOSP ROM and it will be like you never left the gnex. (Although admittedly not as stable YET). With KK just being released by LG, all roms should get better. Anyways, enjoy a camera that works all the time not just when it is super bright and a battery that is equal to 3x of the galaxy nexus.
Sent from my LG-VS980 using Tapatalk
Thanks for the input. I installed AICP latest ROM last night with no issues. Feels amazing with no scroll lag compared to stock. Only thing I miss is knock off but hey you can't have it all. Gonna give furnace a go later.

Same situation, I tried to do wipe system, data, internal storage, cache and Dalvik Cache, also only ROM (no gapps) and does not work
v400 - twrp 2.8.5
Yeah, mine hangs on starting apps. I've tried multiple install scenarios. ROM w/o gapps. ROM with banks 6.0, ROM with opengapps 6.0. I get the same thing every time. Unfortunately too, our device got love before alot of others

How do you remove the # icon in status bar? Install supersu 2.5.2?
Report one bug: double tap to wake not working even when enabled in settings.

The icon is only visible if you have a root app running, same here with tap to wake.
This is running pretty great. No double-tap to wake yet, though.
Anyone able to install themes? I get "failed to install theme error" I tried setting selinux to permissive no luck.
Anyone else unable to install of the last two nightlies overtop the first CM13 nightly?
Runs like a lame flea ridden dog
Might be a little quirky but not completely terrible, not sure if this is a newer build. Also using a uk410 but I think it's the same as a v410 as all of the roms I've tried have no issues... Will report anything really screwy...
I don't understand the reason why v400 roms are posted inside the v700 forum.
Are they compatible? Can I flash them on my G Pad 10.1 without bricking it?

Somehow, despite having devs, we don't have our own subforum. Join us in bugging xda so we can get out of your hair! [emoji106]

If it's rooted and you have TWRP installed, you might want to back up stock first. Other than that, download CM13 and open apps and install. No problems.

Rom recommendation

I have a g900f currently running cyanogenmod 12.1 but find that after a few weeks of installing it it slows down so looking for a recommendation for another role I can try.
Looking mainly for performance from The rom and need to use it for work too.
Thanks Bart

Wrong thread to ask, but I'd recommend trying XtreStoLite 2.3
Thanks didn't realise I asked in the wrong place
Where can I find that and can I install using twrp

because it works 100% like stock rom (included fingerprint) with Android 5.1.1, xposed and like S6 Edge.
It works smooth and very well over BOJ1.
I do a full nand backup, intalled the BOJ1 and after, the TW.

Now That We Have TWRP

Now that we have TWRP question from my part can u flash OnePlus 6 ROMs with this new TWRP
They might boot but doubt fingerprint scanner will work
Flashed XxX rom and everything works fine. Gonna try the Google Experience rom next.

i installed it everything works just like before
I can get regular flashable zips to flash in twrp but no roms. XXx is more of a UI mod, and it isnt a paypoad. Bin. Old twrp (blu spark) I could sideload at least.. cannot on latest twrp
Ooooh been out of the loop for a minute with some travel and the Thanksgiving holiday - is this version of TWRP what we're working with? If not could I have someone shoot me over the latest thread?
