Honestly, really....?!?!

If your VZW S5 has the CID 15 chip, which is the Samsung eMMC 15 chip, then you're able to unlock your bootloader. If your VZW S5 had the CID 11 chip, which is the Toshiba eMMC 11 chip, then unfortunately you're unable to unlock your bootloader. To aquire your CID, you can either download and install the Samsung Info app from Google Play or if you have root go to this, which I've copied from the OP of the Unlock thread:

"You can check this by reading the file

/sys/block/mmcblk0/device/cid

Just the first 2 15xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx or 11xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Hope this helps....

If your device states 15 then you're a lucky dog...if it states an 11, well unfortunately, we're still stuck in the doghouse....

Sweet thanks dude, will try this then later on :D ! I'm sick of stock verizon lollipop , I will then try phoenix rom it's awesome I had it on my s3 back then.

How exactly would I change my device model? Using buildprop did nothing.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
I believe it's part of the ROM....if if you change anything in build.prop, then some functions may not work.....but i believe there's a little more than changing things in buildprop....

Oh okay. I guess I'll have to deal with YouTube not working right then.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
You didn't mention about You Tube not working.....you had asked about changing the device model....have you done a search in this thread and the original ROM thread?

Found this link from the thread....hope it helps

In the notes for 12.6 update it says that in order for YouTube 60fps to not lag you have to change your device model from SM-G900V to SM-G903F but trying to do that in build prop causes my phone to lag and nothing changes, sorry, I should've given more detail.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Be sure you edit what's shown in the link i just posted from the original ROM thread....there's a few lines that need to be edited....also, i would search through that link due to there's probably more info that you may be looking for
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] -WhiteHawk-:
I'll do that, thanks!

Edit: No beans. I did what the post said and clicked save in buildprop but nothing changed. Device didn't lag though. Restarted phone just to make sure.

Ugh.. So I need some direction. I recently flashed jrkruse's [VZW_Stock Based TW Rom][5.0 Lollipop BPB1 Build Odex/Deodex] 3-4-16's with an unlocked bootloader. How do I get from that ROM to this ROM. I know I need a PD1 Bootloader and Firmware. I guess my real question is, how do I upgrade from PB1 to PD1? I'm sorry if this has been answered. I promise I searched for a solution, I just need a clarified answer. Thank you!

EDIT: I think I figured it all out.

EDIT2: I got everything working as far as I know. Currently flashed the ROM w/o any problems. The only annoyance for me is every time I restart my phone, I get the same two notifications and I don't know what they mean or how to get rid of them. The bottom two in the screenshot are the notifications that keep coming back.

[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
When I went back and forth with Philz I corrupted the partition and had to go back and odin original file with pit redoing everything from there. I was about to buy a new phone when I was able to start from scratch.

I never got 14 to work on mine. It lost signal as soon as I put 14.2 on and with the patch didn't get it back. I tried modding 14 like I did 13 with still little success. Was on 13.6 but it got laggy over the last weeks. I really like this rom but had to switch. May try again but takes some faith at this point and lots of time as they said to install all of them from 12 up.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] b_superman1:
What steps did you take because I want to flash it starting at v14?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] TechX1991:
i love roms with "pro paid features" in them. The reason we rom is to get everything we want the device to do. the stupidest thing is paying for features in an operating system.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
I'd be interested as well as I tried modded 14, not modded but modded patch, and so on. Am sure I just missed a step somewhere. Please if you would let us know what files exactly , what order and what mods. Sorry if this should be easier but I tried and failed with many combinations for many hours. And I really like this rom.

Thanks

Hey [MENTION=1903184]puterdoc[/MENTION], I ended up switching phones and got me a nexus 6p, :), but I have the files that I used to flash v14 and v14. 2 still on my computer, along with the modded patch, I couldn't for the life of me remember the steps I took but would gladly upload them for you if you have a site that I could. And also remember no credit goes to me, only to the developer as I only figured a way to mod it to work on vzw s5

Thanks again
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
Sad to report I got the exact same result I did when I used my files. I get 4x signal when I install 14, but if I remember, it falls off later. Didn't wait to see. I installed your patch and lost it just like my version. If I used the first Verizon apn I get an intermittent signal, 1x-3x, then off. But Using the straightalk apn it never even tries. I even tried to modify and it just doesn't get it. I tried to use under Global and under CDMA and neither works. I will continue to work on some settings. I flashed back to twrp and restored my working 13.6 to poke around hoping to find something.

Thank you again for all your help and the uploads. You're right, that is what this place is suppose to be about. I do my part best I can too. Will let you know my progress if things change.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
Just tried. It just doesn't like something. I went back to 13.6 and even made an APN back with that. Wiped, reinstalled 14, then patch. Tried both your file and mine. Neither work for anything except for vzwadmin and Verizon FOTA got signal.

My phone is just evil or something. Will fight this out later I think. I really do appreciate your help and time. Will try any other ideas too though as they come. Might be an excuse for me to upgrade, yet I am cheap so.....

Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
Ok [MENTION=7396816]Bryanx86[/MENTION] . I got it going. I feel stupid but I swear I never read this was required. I never got the patch from the actual page, where last night I read it states you must apply it before you boot. Being Aroma auto reboots I didn't think to do it before. Once I stopped the reboot and installed the patch it booted up and went like a charm. I manually reinstalled all the apps just in case. Am sorry to put you through the extra work. I really do like this rom. Thanks again.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] Bryanx86:
So were you able to get it to work with the original download, or the one i uploaded for ya? Really glad you got it working, it is a good rom.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] puterdoc:
I didn't try my files again. Once I had yours I used them. One glitch I've had is did have a disconnect for Bluetooth but reconnected. I like the feel and look better. It works well for me. Still customizing personal settings. I didn't do any of the mods. never needed them. Did you even use some? I've not changed the speed on any S5 rom. been fast enough but when I used dirty unicorn I did plenty of tweaks. Just curious how far you pushed.

[MENTION=2739548]tamirda[/MENTION], question to ask? Would it be possible for you to give permission for [MENTION=7396816]Bryanx86[/MENTION] to post the links of your ROM to work on the VZW S5 devices if he submits a request to you for doing so? I believe it will be a benefit to you from our variant device, since JrKruse has pretty much moved on to a better horizon which is good for him and nothing negative about it. I/we would appreciate your condolences of this request if at all possible. As always, we appreciate you and all of the other Dev's that bring us these awesome ROM's.

TWRP 3.0.0 does work on this G900V device. What method are you trying to install it? Odin or through recovery or FF? Because there's 2 different file types to install it. One is for Odin and the other is for Recovery or FF. Which in your case you may need to use FF or Odin....

Also, must you copy the complete OP...? All you had to do was post your question.....lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] rellycooljack:
I have installed V14. I have many occasional freezes. Should i install v14.2?
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] THA-REAPER:
In my experience it didn't really change and probably made it worse. The lags and freezes are real bad when it does. I've been on it since 14.2 released trying to keep patience with it when it does lag or freeze. Kind of what brings me to xda at this hour to find a rom that brings a majority of similarities as that one. It's a very good rom, but we most likely won't find any help in that thread lol.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] AKETech:
I just saw this, and I am rooted. Considering I've followed this thread pretty closely for months now though, I'm assuming there's not going to be a way to install this rom on a locked bootloader. My son is running this rom though and absolutely loves it. Thanks for all your hard work though.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] THA-REAPER:
So I'm on 15.0 now and it's way more faster and doesn't lag like I mentioned previously.

Just follow the instructions on the first post of the linked thread and don't install the Modem_LTE.tar because it's for the actual G900F and tamirda warns that it may brick if you do.

If you have a unlocked bootloader on the G900V you can give this a go. I also used flashfire even though it says TWRP its your choice. Backup first then make sure you choose full wipe during the aroma installation. I used the reborn kernel. I didn't install any mods except the 360dpi mod. As lots of mods is not recommended it can introduce lag.

Xposed running fine after flashing xposed-v86.0-sdk23-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20160709.zip with flashfire and installing XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk after the phone completes it's first boot.

Now the things bug wise are you still need to change the build.prop device model from SM-G935F to SM-G903F for lagless 1080p and 1080p60fps YouTube quality. It will stop you from downloading new edge panels and themes, but switch it back when you really need/want more. I wouldn't say this is a bug because on a actual S7 some users have the same complaint lol.

Don't let Galaxy Apps auto-update immediately turn off auto-update in the app "not to be confused with Play Store" to prevent it from grabbing an updated Svoice and camera modes that will force close if updated. Those already work fine.

Fingerprint unlocking nope not happening.

The Smart Manager likes to force close, but it's not really needed, it's just extra Samsung fluff that 3rd party apps do as well.

Just wanted to share my experience since it's a little quiet in here about 15.0. I've explained most of what to do, but still read the first post carefully.

Asking so others don't get comfused. So you just flashed the ROM in Tamirda's thread and nothing else? No flashing Jrkruse's International ROM patch or removing anything that may interfere with our variant? Again, user's may read this and get crack happy flashing and end up with a messed up device. Thats why I'm asking so others will be good to go. Thank you for sharing! :good:
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] THA-REAPER:
Yeah that's right since 13.0 I've been flashing them. I followed http://xdaforums.com/verizon-galaxy-s5/development/rd-unlocking-galaxys-s5-bootloader-t3337909 back on 13.0 first to get TWRP recovery. I've been upgrading since. Each of them require a full wipe. Never had any boot issues. I don't use a Verizon sim. I use a Gosmart Mobile sim. I didn't have to set up the APN got SMS, MMS, Calls, Data, and WiFi. It just worked initially from first boot.

On 15.0 I installed no patches except xposed.

Question to ask? Does the rotation and infinite scrolling for the launcher and app drawer work for you? I've tried everything and even purchased the extended features for the RC Control app and it's a no-go....hate to say but if I'd known prior, i wouldn't have purchased it....and i haven't even gotten a seen a response yet pertaining to the question......lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] THA-REAPER:
I'm not sure about infinite scrolling and where to enable it at. Rotation does work though. The screen can go from portrait to landscape including home in any direction.
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Ok thank you. Can't get it to rotate on Home Screen or in App Drawer.....it rotates in all directions when I'm using apps but that's all...
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] THA-REAPER:
In Phoenix Rom Control do you have General Mods> TouchWiz Launcher> Launcher Rotation enabled? I don't think that does anything. You need Phoenix Rom Control Pro. Then you have this option Allow 360 Rotation. Is that what you were describing when you said extended RC Pro features?

I didn't see a way to search this thread for something I'm sure has been asked before. Please excuse me if it has.

I'm ON an Aosp MM build now and wouldn't mind trying this rom with its updates. I saw the firmware needed to flash or bootloader. I'm not sure which bootloader I have but baseband says bok3 I believe. Since my bootloader is unlocked can I simply flash this and if I'm unhappy to back to Aosp again? Do I need to install something else before hand?

Just wondering.

Thanks for your patience. I just don't keep up with these things like I used to.

I bought this used back in June when my s3 kicked the bucket only because I researched in store and learned that I could unlock the bootloader and root easily. Thanks again

Edit found the answer on the second page. Sorry. Now off to find the necessary bootloader and whatnot. But by firmware you mean install a vzw stock mm rom and bootloader? This won't screw up my unlocked loader correct?

Thanks again
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] al50:
Correct. I purchased the PhoenixROM Control Pro from the Playstore. And have 360 enabled. It also has continuous scrolling in the ROM Control but no dice on that either. Kinda odd.....lol
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] griz.droidx:
My apologies Again I've read about the needed bootloader and maybe firmware that are needed to flash this.

My problem is that I bought the phone in June 16 because development was still strong and I got a good deal on a phone used very little and never modded the first thing I did was unlock the bootloader to install aosp Roms and I've had no issues doing this with kernels and such. In fact I'm on RR MM now but if seems that going back to TW is more complicated. Could anyone provide me a link to install the correct bootloader for this rom.

If I do install this with the update to 12 will I be able to go able to aosp without issues? If it messes that up then I'll just deal with aosp but I know that some TW Roms for my old s3 were rather nice and that's why I want to try this. I know this is a newb question but again I unlocked and installed aosp the first night after my purchase.

Thanks for any direction provide no matter how little or sxarastic.

Thanks and thanks to the devs and community. I'd try 14 but after reading 12 seems more stable atm just as aosp N isn't as refined as mm
[Verizon Galaxy S 5 Android Development] griz.droidx:
Well I've read up on bootloader firmwares and modems. And looked through Jrkruse.'s file collection . My understanding is that I can simply flash a the correct bootloader and about an 80 mb firmware w,/o a bootloader included to flash this rom am I correct? And do I have to install a full fleged 1.7odd GB firmware. Is Phoenix 14 better than this one other than being up to date? From the little bit I've read it's still in development and getting the kinks worked out.

I just don't want to lose my unlocked bootloader and be able to go back to aosp if I need to fairly easily. Sorry for bugging you guys.

Any info would be appreciated. I have only tried the stock rom for about 7 hours after I bought it then unlocked the BL and installed aosp. I'm on bok3 I believe it is.
