Hi,
It looks like you have SM-G900F S5 model (Qualcomm Snapdragon / klte) with latest Polish unbranded android 6.0.1 on it.
I doubt if you are ready for flashing any custom staff to your phone as you even can't identify a proper custom recovery ....
Saying: "I'm a noob" doesn't help. Before flashing anything on my phone I was reading a lot in order to understand what I was going to do so I encourage you to do the same.
1. Before flashing anything you need to understand what is Samsung KNOX (in general, after flashing anything custom like recovery, kernel etc your KNOX flag will be triggered so if you have valid Samsung guarantee - it will be lost) - google it and read more. If you don't like this situation - stop here, otherwise go to point no 2;
2. In order to flash a custom recovery for the first time you need to flash .tar version of it via odin pc app - latest version take from here:
https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/galaxy-s5/SM-G900F/XEO/download/G900FXXS1CQD1/130602/
(Look for headline: "Instructions")
Find out more how to flash with odin -> google it and read;
3. Your custom recovery version you can find here (I recommend TWRP):
https://eu.dl.twrp.me/klte/ (use the first file with .tar extension)
Read before about "TWRP odin install method" here:
https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxys5qualcomm.html
Now you are good to go for custom recovery flashing;
4. When you already have TWRP installed look for a custom Rom of your choice.
You need to decide by your own what you expect from your new rom. Look here for some custom roms and read their descriptions in rom threads:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5 -> look for roms compatible with your phone model inside following subforums: S5 Development (Snapdragon), S5 Original Development or S5 Unified Development.
When you finally choose the rom, install it following installation instructions from the particular rom's thread.
Good luck.
Hi Many40!
Thank you for your reply!
I very much apreciate your tutorial (it's almost impossible to screw up). Will give it a go!
Once again, thanks!!
Hello.
First I'd like to say that i haven't ever tried anything like rooting my phone or custom roms so that you know what you're dealing with
Lately I've been bored with my s8 plus(SM-G955F). Was even considering buying a different phone but then i remembered reading about rooting and custom roms so i thought i might give it a try.
I've been reading a bit about rooting and roms but all the information and methods can be a little overwhelming for someone like me who doesn't really know what he's doing. Basically i need help.
While looking for custom rom i'd like to try i settled on renovate ice and i have some questions.
Do i need to root before flashing a custom rom or does the rom come rooted already?
From what i understand i have to start with installing TWRP with odin but what then? root or rom?
Basically if anyone would be kind enough to provide some links with steps i need to take to install that rom and root my device and not mess it up i'd be grateful.
In case you need it I'm on the latest OTA i've received.
build number: R16NW.G955FXXU1CRD7

Hello there , you do not need to root your to flash a custom rom . All you need is to backup your data for you own safety and flash TWRP recovery through Odin probram . Renovate ice is most famous and stable rom you can try . It has same UI as the stock rom . Little changes only you might wont see me . If you want to change UI you should for another rom . Also root comes with the rom inbuild, specificaly renovate ice has two options to chose, magisk or supersu . Personally i prefer Magisk before through this app ' you can' modify your system, its like xposed framework.

So I installed TWRP like in the video.
Everything seemed to work i had a clean install of stock ore with twrp. When i tried to boot into twrp i had the "only official binaries" bootloop. So i flashed a bootloader and i was stuck on galaxy s8+ screen. Went into download mode to flash stock firmware but can't do anything. Stuck in download mode and can't flash anything now... How do i get out of it?
Edit:
Ok. Found a way to flash the bootloader. now I'm back to "only official binaries" bootloop.
Edit 2:
Ok managed to get everything to work. At least it appears so for now.
Had to flash nougat firmware then installed twrp, rom and root and it worked.
I thought something went wrong because it was very laggy but after rebooting it seems okay. We'll see how it goes from here.
Gonna google it and try to fix it but if anyone has any ideas i'd be grateful
Hello,
I have a GT-I9505 with an untouched Android 5.0.1 and I want to use a Custom ROM. Questions:
1. Which ROM is currently the best one available?
2. Can Anyone provide me a foolproof instructions / order of installing everything?
Thanks in advance
There are many tutorials on XDA on flashing a custom rom, it`s easy once you know how. YouTube also has some great vid`s to watch step by step.
My advice is 1st install a custom recovery like TWRP, concentrate on that first, you will need to download Odin software to flash TWRP to your phone, after that it`s as simple as downloading a zip rom to your sd card and flashing to your phone through TWRP recovery.
ALWAYS BACKUP your current working setup and read the entire rom description as SOME may have a few functions not working.
So far I have flashed about 5 diffrent rom`s to my i9505, all of which have been great, im currently using - [JDCTeam] Aosp Extended Pie Release 2.91 [9.0.0_r21] [unofficial] - with no problems.
