Yeah, it looks like none of the recoveries work, even if it says it's supposed to work.

This one looks good:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Black-Back-...e_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item1c3e834510

It even has the camera lens, too. The one I got didn't, so I had to install an iPhone 4 one and use metallic putty to fill the empty space. They're also slightly thicker than the ones originally in our i5S. I think by about 0.2 mm.

About decompiling the ROM, it seems that no one is able to do it. Even mounting it in Linux doesn't work.

Only ROMs/Kernel from Original Android Development Subforum are/will be added

results will be published immediately!

If you find bugs, want a ROM/Kernel to be added or anything else, please use this thread

Thanks for participating :)

2014-04-09:

added links to overview

various typos
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
Why?
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
I thought the same too but I followed his link. It's setup really nice and it's not just any regular what are you running thread. Pretty cool to see the info being displayed like that. There's way too many roms though so I'll keep an eye on this thread.
[Nexus 5 General] kufikugel:
I would remove liquid and illusion lol. They have nothing todo with original development
[Nexus 5 General] f4bio:
I don't know... its a result of a long travel by train

Maybe for users who want to try something new but don't know what to choose.

Or ROM/Kernel devs want to know what users think.

Does it bother you that much?

well I took the first few top threads from the sub and they happen to be there :)

lets see how it turns out
[Nexus 5 General] kufikugel:
He he yeah not your fault at all. They need to be moved by the moderator team into android development along with xenonHD. They simply are not doing anything other then the 1000 of android development ROMs....kanging. No original work at all. Nothing bad but hammerhead moderators decided at the beginning to clearly differentiate it...which is IMO a good idea...but this 3 silently added their ROMs threads into original :D and I think that's not fair for the other android development ROMs (like carbon aicp madhi etc etc) that user think this three mentioned above do original work.
[Nexus 5 General] danarama:
It does, yes. It is against XDA rules to make Best ROM or Best Kernel threads for the reason that "some" devs don't like to be compared to others. It is against the Spirit of XDA. Even though your results are not technically what is best, it is still comparing the work so should still be against the rules.

I will leave it in the hands of mods. If they decide to allow this thread, fine. If not, also fine.
[Nexus 5 General] kufikugel:
Yeah quiet difficult to decide here agree and something in a gray zone I think lol. On the one hand it is a comparison on the other hand very anonymous and it shows specific stats as well for the different ROMs and kernels (like which version most are running etc). And stats about quality speed etc are not ROM specific and only shown as overall impressions about all ROMs and kernel....difficult lol.

Whatever yeah mods need to decide.
[Nexus 5 General] FuMMoD:
Definitely a grey area.
[Nexus 5 General] wedgess:
Unfortunately comparison threads are not allowed on XDA, be it a poll or just a thread. While it is anonymous that is not the point, as mentioned some ROM/Kernel devs do not like seeing their work being compared to the work of others. As this is as outside poll (and a nice one at that) I must remove the link from the OP as members could still vote and view it otherwise.

just wondering if the s5 comes with a usb 3.0 cable ? , seen a few unboxings and they all look like a standard micro usb cable
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Yup, it comes with a 3.0 cable. It looks similar to the 2.0 cable, but if you look closely, there is a difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] chillsen:
quick question 3.0 only affects transfer speeds when connected to a computer right? for charging it's always going to be the adapter's output (2A)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
If connected to a computer that has a USB3 port, it'll be a faster charge than if you were to use USB2. USB2 has a max of about 500mA, theoretically. USB3 has a max of 900mA. When using a wall charger, it'll be the same as USB2, since the adapters output (most commonly 2A) remains the same. That also goes without saying: Using the wall charger will always be faster than using a computer, since the output is considerably higher.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] ex-28:
im guessing the wall charger that comes with the s5 is only a 2A output ?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
I'm not sure, since I don't have my S5 yet (getting delivered tomorrow) but yeah I'm assuming it'll be 2A as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] CZ Eddie:
I asked somewhere else and a user told me it's been upgraded to 2.5A.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Oh nice, that's definitely good to hear. :good:
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] JacenSolo2001:
It's USB on one end and a really odd looking connection to the bottom of the phone. Don't know what it's called.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] cloudraker:
Thats the standard USB 3.0 Micro connector. Its basically the standard USB micro connector we are all used to with an additional set of pins on the side. The nice thing is the ports are backwards compatible but with slower speeds.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] Cusa:
If it's been upgraded to 2.5A then that explains the super fast charging speed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Just got my S5 :)

And nah, the wall adapter is still 2A...at least the one that came with mine is:

I think the fast charging is because of "Quick Charge 2.0" from Qualcomm's 801 chip.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] karmuh:
Yup, you sure can. The USB3 port is backward-compatible so any of the old USB2 microUSB cables will work just fine.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5] mastermarc:
