Shitty Rambo Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Just flashed it and I love it, except for the keyboard it comes with. Chinese IME or something. Super frustrating. Install Google Keyboard via the Play Store and enable it though your Settings > Input options, here's a direct link if it makes it easier- https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin Personally I prefer SwiftKey. Been using it for years! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 Huh, I'll probably give that a shot then! However as much as this ROM is cool, it's not doing too great on my battery life. /: Need to see if I can find one that is good on battery. Also, been thinking about trying some ROMs that work for Lollipop. Could I just flash Lollipop on my phone or would I have to use stock firmwares and use Odin like always? It usually is so buggy when I try the stock firmwares though. Maybe there's better custom Lollipop ROMS? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes your phone a few days to "settle" after installing a new ROM before you notice battery improvements. I'll take a look at the XDA gs5 section and see if there's one more suiting to your needs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 This looks like it's right up your alley, Lollipop build based on stock, de-bloated, performance tweaks, and new features from the S6 added. I'd give this one a shot, run it for a few a days and let the device get it's footing. These are the types of ROMs I prefer (not super into themes and novelty features). http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/rom-geris-lp-duos-t3195300 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Okay, so I did some shit right now. Totally soft bricked my phone earlier. I upgraded my OS to 5.1 and installed CWM, because I had it and was too lazy to download TWRP. Then I ran the SuperSU, but that was for 4.4.2, so it was just stuck on the Samsung Galaxy S5 screen. Went into recovery and tried to recover my backup, but it was from TWRP, so it wouldn't recognize it. Just ended up going to download mode and flashed a stock firmware and that worked. Then went back to 5.1. I panicked a small bit when it wouldn't recognize the backup, lol. Need to be more careful. But anyways, since I'm on 5.1, can I flash that ROM? Or must I be on 5.0? I keep seeing 5.0 there, idk. I don't know how you find all these files dude. I'm so lost when browsing, haha. EDIT: At least I THINK that's what happened.

HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Are you on stock 5.1? Is it rootable? 5.1.1 completely stock. Downloaded from that sammobile site and yes I found a guide that says it can be rooted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Or should I downgrade to 5.0? .-. That ROM does look pretty sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Or should I downgrade to 5.0? .-. That ROM does look pretty sweet. I'd downgrade and flash that ROM I suggested. Doesn't look like 5.1 has any barebone ROM builds for the GS5 at the moment, and to be honest the only thing added to that build is guest profiles, and I can't imagine anyone using that on their phone. Maybe a tablet, but it's a dumb feature for sure haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Well, turns out it doesn't work for my model. Was stuck in a boot loop again. Wiped the major three as always and still nothing. Sucks, because I really wanted to have it. /: Should probably comment on that thread and let the developer know.

HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Do it! 9/10 someone will know what's wrong and help you. Well, I tried it one more time and it actually worked! But there was a problem with it. I wasn't receiving any messages, so I couldn't log into my Google accounts. At least it worked, but I will let them know about that. Hopefully they can fix that.

HybridxReality Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 Been trying to give Twi5ted ROMs a shot. Tried both v7 and v6 and neither work for me. Going to give an older one a shot and see what happens. Also, I usually go into recovery, wipe, flash and then wipe again and then finally reboot. Don't know if I'm doing the right thing with doing an extra wipe. But yeah, I'm hooked. I just want to flash EVERYTHING Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 It shouldn't be an issue but also isn't really necessary unless a dev suggests you do it. The only time wiping after flashing a ROM could be a problem is if you have to flash gApps (Google Apps zipped up, for use with AOSP/AOKP ROMs like CM because they don't include the Playstore and whatnot). In that case wiping data will erase what you just installed. You have the flash fever! It happens to the best of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's funny because I tried it again't without wiping the second time and it totally worked, lol. I'm in LOOOOOVE with this one. I wish there was more customization like with Alliance, but this is so quick. OH I HAVE IT AND I FEEL LIKE DANCING Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HybridxReality Posted October 1, 2015 Author Share Posted October 1, 2015 So I went to 5.1.1 and tried out Bliss Pop. Loved it, but the speaker volume is messed up on that rom (known issue). Tried a fix that was recommended and didn't work. Other than that, it was a super awesome ROM. Really did like it. Oh, also the email app that came included didn't work at all, so I couldn't sync my contacts. That was a little frustrating. Believe it's a CM mod, or based off of it.

Shitty Rambo Posted October 1, 2015 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Everything CM based comes with it's fair amount of jank! I stay away from them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
