Maverick Rom 5.0 and 5.1.1 q&a thread - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

Hello and you may know my from .... I highly doubt that but I'm a new Dev on the s5 seen or block who rose from noob to novice to dev.
I see that a lot of times people miss a lot of things that they like from a ROM whether its a comprise or feature that changes.
My only promise that I can keep to you is that as long as our device thrives and I still have my phone I'll keep things simple and have no comprises just results these are the roms made by the people and here they are all are rooted and packaged with features. Even though im not as talented as a few who left us aka @The Sickness I believe one could always try to move out of the singularity.
Thereby here are my Roms
Maverick 5.1.1 Improved Edition V2(deodex)
2 Version Maverick Mach 10 Final Aroma (debloated and deodex) *Update Andriod M 7/11
NOW let me ask you what is it you seek young ones.

So im ready and always answer back like in around 30mins

Also if anyone ask battery drains on my rom could be 0.5 to 3.0 on standby which is really lol like take it off at charger at 9 come back then and see it only decreased from 100 to 98 or 97

Clean Fast Tweaked Rom ?

Hello everybody,
I don't know how you feel about this whole thread, but I get lost between nooby questions and boosted topics.
All I want to do, is to check out the latest fastest and cleanest roms for the touch dual (Nike).
Well, I am not able to get a clear view whats out there because this thread is shifting so much due to new posts in old topics.
I would like to know if someone can recommend a very nice tweaked and fixed up rom.
I know their are some good ones out there such as the Mary Roms or the Niki Project Rom Editor Roms.
I don't know how you guys feel about it, but I am not in love with gothic style skins, overloaded menus and a start up animation that chips in 5 minute waiting time till you can even use your device.
All I want is a "fixed" clean rom.
please...
I know what you mean, I'd like the most clean rom ever, with lots of free RAM... but that hasnt come out yet... There is a promisse of this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=415027
...but hasnt come out yet, the truth is that you cant uninstall what is already in a rom, but you can override it with diferent skins, so for now I'm going for the DB's 3.2.1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=409787
that leaves me with about 74 free RAM with all installed.

[Info] Most Stable Custom Rom - **You've used** i.e. {not best rom} :p

o.k this isn't a best rom... wave your pom poms... I'm so excited I just flashed a new rom thread
back in the day when we were making MP's (monster packs) on Argon, we wouldn't release the MP until it was perfect (or as close to perfect as we could get) :angel:
I was just thinking, that I've had mys SGS-2 about 7 months and 99% that time I can't remember it not having any bugs!!
Personally, I actually enjoy finding work arounds/solutions for the dreaded bug :fingers-crossed:
I don't know linux, nor do I have the time or energy to learn :cyclops: this thread is designed to share - objective findings of an anecdotal nature...
i.e. Rom Y - was super stable & I even did A, B & C to it :highfive:
nothing boils my bunions more than looking through an OP & seeing ' don't post bugs' or 'rom has known issues' or claims of curing cancer in thread title... really!? [slight exaggeration - devs do it too]
as users, I believe we have a right to critique work put forward by devs... i.e. if your willing to put yourself out there, you should expect to get feedback both positive & negative
plus, objective critiques should keep devs honest and hopefully ensure a high standard of work :victory: {we really need a dev rating system} @ staff
anyway - enough preaching for the time being - let's get down to rom+stability
For me, most stable rom was :drum-roll: Wajk's WIUI (his take on MIUI) - I used GB version... if memory serves correctly - as provided by Wajk it was 99.99% bug free ^^ (it's GB it should be) then I added Fluxxi kernel (NB, there is english version of kernel app)
& then I supercharged it all of the above made ph super smooth/snappy & made the battery grow some huge kahones...
Why aren't I on it now just like most others I'm after the latest fix i.e. 4.1.2 JB
but every now and then I almost get the urge to restore that blend of rom & tweaks - just to compare it to 4.1.2 but, I get scared that if I do - I'll find out that 4.1.2, aint all it's cracked up to be - so I put up with... well the bugs! :chortle:
Now - share your findings -=or=- lambaste me with your critique -=or=-

Lol agreed now you are probably gonna experience sarcasms and links to xda rules, so anyway before anything happens i tried several and i now bet on cm 9.1 as my daily driver, i flashed several roms used it for a day or two then as quickly as I flashed i jump back to cm9 through backup as it's the most fastest to my taste. I use ClockworkMod's kernel now but my favorite is definitely Siyah. Testing battery life comparison now, heating issues in heavy load too also being tested.

Hear, hear!
There isnt even a "known issues" list anymore ("because every device is different blah blah") and we can't discuss which roms work best ("because every rom is different etc etc ad nauseam").
In my very personal opinion, coming from the Asus TF101 forum here in XDA, where we can definitely discuss better roms and make comparisons this approach isn't very constructive.
If anyone disagrees, again, it's just my point of view.
ps.: The NeatRom thread is a breath of fresh air, really democratic with a lot of ideas and suggestions being exchanged between users and devs.
pps.: I hope I don't get banned for expressing my point of view. :fingers-crossed:
He He,
You've asked the question of the year !!! For me, it's RR 2.7 ICS & Siyah 501 ( Levi's - best ). still have it as backup on SD, PC ,Moon ....

SlimBean 3.1

However you dress this up, its still a "best rom" thread and just leads to same answers which are subjective and opinions.

^^ This.
The most stable ROM is likely the stock ROM. If you want the most stable "custom" ROM, use one that is almost identical to a stock ROM.
Please, no more threads on ROM comparisons. Try them out and see which one is appropriate for your usage patterns. A stable ROM for one person is not for another.

Building new ROM from two ROMs

Hi
I am an active learner and would like to venture in Dev zone. I am trying to mix out two best ROMs for Neo V - Super Jelly Bean and Slim Bean. I'll brainstorm with people from today to see how can i bring the best of them. Of course, I'll get the permissions from the respective developers before making anything public.
Would like to know if someone is willing to join so that we can exchange the knowledge we have to bring out the positives in each rom. Both ROMs are based on CM 10.
Super JB - Current version 2.5:
pros:
Best for gaming - has the scripts and tweaks for it
Fast and has around 180 MB RAM most of the time
Cons:
Can't assign ringtones for contacts
Texts appear to be bigger than Slim Bean. DPI Change probably.
Less customizations than Slim bean
Comes with only 70 Mb free space in /System after flashing ROM and gapps
Slim Bean - Current version 3.10
Pros:
Light weight. - has around 170 MB in /system after flashing ROM and slim gapps (probably cos of the 20 MB gapps)
Lots of customizations inherited from CM
Cons:
less RAM compared to SJB. No spl scripts for gaming
Switching b/w both in the past few days and came up with this thought to mix both.
Pls ping me if anyone want to join me
Yea..nice idea..but the Devs who made those roms..have obviously worked pretty hard to make em...
So if they do give you permissions..nd you succeed in making an awesome hybrid rom...then people will use only ur Rom...nd forget bout those 2 roms..which would be kinda unfair to those devs..
Nd then those Devs might stop development of them roms...which would mean...ur Rom wont get any updates...
All this is just my opinion...I dont mean any disrespect...but do consider it.

Yeah, right. Never meant to stop their development. Without them i'd be still in GB But this is basically for learning. Not to show off and get some thanks from all the people around. I'm just looking for newbies to join the team and learn in progress. Will try to keep it for personal use as much as possible and even if i had to go public, i'd be going thru the devs not personally. I know its hard work to create and maintain anything..
Thanks for the thoughts, LoneWanderer.

Custom Kitkat ROM with empasis on battery life, or 4.x emulation for 1 app?

So I'll just pick one at random then? Thanks for the help...
There is a thread with links to all the stock firmware releases. But downgrading has been debated if its even possible. The procedure is detailed in a couple different posts from what I've read. I doubt you will be able to run a kk ROM with the a LL bootloader and modem.
Sent from my SM-G900T
There are still Cyanogenmod 11 (KitKat) builds in the unified development section, that's probably your best bet. As mgp53 pointed out it's difficult if not downright impossible to downgrade android versions using the official firmware, if you're already on 5.1.1

Thanks so much! I am pouring through it now... might take a bit since I don't see a column for version number http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development#romList but I'll just sort by latest release and click on every single link manually till I see a 4.x that isn't a buggy PoS. I was originally hoping to steer clear of AOSP/CM because I heard the battery life isn't as good as TW or "superslim" style stripped-down stock fws, but at this point I will take what I can get. I've had terrible luck getting any kind of answers across multiple subforums on this site. Your post was the most useful by far. Thanks again.
Incoming rant...
It really is a shame that 1) the download links on the 600+ Infinity ROM thread are all dead, 2) SlimROM doesn't seem to exist in any meanful/useable state for the s5 even though they have tons of devices including the s3/s4, 3) Sick n Twi5ted for 4.x is a buggy PoS, 4) Liquidsmooth has major missing features such as no camera (You thought releasing a ROM on a 16megapixel flagship device with no camera function was OK enough to start asking for donations and then never got around to adding support for the camera? At least have the decency to put a list of major bugs and missing features in the OP. It is debateably fraudulent to put a donate button where the 'Major Issues' section should be and then not even have a disclaimer.
Users of this site really ought not to have to pour through 60-600 pages to find out major flaws on a ROM. In all the dozens of threads I've sifted through over the past week there was exactly ONE who was up front and honest including a section devoted to missing features/major bugs.
/end_rant
On the bright side, all this madness had led me to seriously consider developing my own ROM and that would probably be a good thing for me in general to learn anyway. Or alternatively I could create a website devoted to archiving older ROMs since there seems to be quite a few that have gone missing here. (think oldversion.com circa 2005)
Whatever I decide to contribute, there certainly is room for a lot of it here.
android6 greatly improved idle battery life, plus you can underclock the cpu if you have root

don't read this post & don't waste time

:good:
First of all your post's title is very misleading, edit it.
Look brother, it's inappropriate to make posts like this. Developers do all the hard work for free, but they have a life too. It takes time, skill & a lot of trouble shooting to develop a ROM. So just give them some time, okay?
If we keep nagging them, the devs might feel annoyed & lose their interest in developing for our device completely. Tell me, is that what you want? The problem is we only want to take everything for free, giving nothing in return - not even a little bit of patience!! That's not how the world works.
Android 10 isn't out for this device yet, but we already have 4 Android Q based custom ROMs for A3. You can try those in the meanwhile.
No hard feelings bro, just wanted to share my thoughts with you. Thank you.

I see. Stock android is not everyone's cup of tea. You see, this phone runs on stock android, so every custom rom for this device is going to be based on stock/AOSP. You probably won't get that cartoonish MIUI for this device. GSIs? May be. But those things are always riddled with bugs. Talking of Oxygen OS, there isn't a whole lot of deference between Android One & OOS. Besides, you'll lose the ability to use your cameras to their full potential - a common problem with custom roms in general.
You really should have gone with CC9e instead of A3.
I, for one, enjoy clean, fluid & bloat-free Android. Every feature you get on MIUI can be duplicated on stock rom with the help of some useful apps & a bit of creativity
Basically, stock android is like soft clay. You can customize it to any shape you like (granted, it does require some effort); you can't say the same for 3rd party skins like MIUI.
I thought that after more than 2 years since Mi A1, people finally learned that if they want MIUI, they need to buy a phone with MIUI and not Android One. What puzzles me even more, Xiaomi offers EXACTLY the same device with/without MIUI, yet people jump on the Android One train and complain.. Sorry for being off-topic, but I'm amazed by this behavior since the beginning of Xiamoi's Android One line

sorry to say you don't realy know indeep about miui.. use oos or miui 1year with using then full feature then you will get your own ansr.. stock is simple & powerful

and sorry guys.. if you think i am not respecting dev
i will sell a3. & next time will not post like this
(for new law in our country i can't buy mi cc9e or better version for money)
