I just wanted to find out if everyone is going to do the Lollipop update when it finally does become available for Verizon or not. Or will you just keep what version you have or stay rooted? I have been hearing that the AT&T update does not really improve anything and it does not look much different.

Nope. I have my phone setup perfectly. I'm on 10B, haven't even updated to 12B/C/D or whatever. I would update to deodexed 12B if there was good enough reason, but I definitely wouldn't jump to lollypop. I won't use lollypop until my next phone (G4 once it gains root).
I will once there is a stock based ROM to flash.

I agree I will once a Dev makes a ROM of it that way we can jump back if we don't like it or there are problems

According to Drippler, LG3 users in the US on ATT system are not being able to defer the Lollipop update. If they select no to the update, it updates the phone anyway. Just putting this out FYI and confirmation.

Shouldn't be a problem if you've frozen or removed the updater like a good boy should ?
Coming from the Moto X 2014, I enjoyed 3 months of Lollipop unrooted. On a Verizon phone at that, go figure. I'm hoping to take 5.0 or whatever version is served up to us asap...
Battery life seems to have taken a bit of a plunge in LP according to this
http://blog.gsmarena.com/benchmarking-android-5-0-lollipop-battery-life-samsung-galaxy-s5-lg-g3/
What is the updater file name? I run a custom Rom but want to make sure it isn't enabled. I searched the system files for anything with OTA in it and didn't see it. But I have had to TOT back to 10B twice since I bumped the phone and don't want to be vulnerable if I should ever have to do it again. Thanks.

On VZW you should freeze the following, not sure on a custom rom
com.lge.lgfota.permission
System Updates
It depends on whether or not LP fixes the audio hiss issue. My phone is my portable mp3 player, and although I love having root, it's gotta be a good phone and good music player first. So frustrating hearing hiss while listening to music... I'd lose root in a heartbeat if they fixed this.
Lollipop is super sweet... Kinda hard not to want it on my g3 after using on my Nexus 7 2013. I mean basically with me running a ROM I have a Nexus 6 with removable battery and expandable memory lol...
I am a little disappointed in Stock lollipop on the other carriers. I do like the new notifications, task mgr, users, etc but I just like the status bar toggles as they are in Stock lollipop...
Luckily xposed is now slowly creeping into lollipop so I'd say in a month life will be sweet!
Although, real talk, if the g4 comes out with 4gbs of ram (yes I know it's not needed but I want it for future proofing) I'd probably sell my g3. But honestly lol I really do love my g3, g watch, etc and am very content hanging on!
some people still use Polaroid instant cameras.
I will update at the first second available.
Depends on if I can keep root across the OTA. I've been able to keep it from 10b to 12b, we'll see what the reports are out there. If I can keep it, and if I can downgrade back to 10b if needs be, then I'll probably try it out.
LP on my Nexus 7 (2012) has been hit or miss. After it's been up and running for awhile, my Nexus 7 will just freeze and I'll have to reboot. I don't have that issue with KK, especially on my G3. The G3 currently runs smooth and I rarely reboot it, ever. And it runs just fine.
So, I'll have to wait and see how things go with LP on this device. As it is, there is a memory leak in the latest version and no word yet from Google on if/when that gets fixed.
This post is for the security junkies who are familiar with the 4.3 to 4.4 crisis that some of us have experienced with VPN and security issues not so long ago. I hope to catch the attention of some of you who may also be security junkies like me who are also wanting the S6. I've been researching some issues that I'll talk about here for some time now and trust me, I've been debating where to even post this thread LOL..... so for what it's worth here we go....
Okay fellow security junkies...here's the deal...
My favorite device to date was the Note 3 on 4.3, because everything just worked flawlessly. OpenVPN worked and stayed connected beautifully along with all the other security perks that I had on my device. The code on 4.3 was much more friendlier and cleaner before it became communist on the security side with 4.4 Kitkat. Then the fall...remember when Kitkat 4.4 came out? After that upgrade all crap hit the fan for us security junkies. Trying to stay connected to VPN was a nightmare and things were just not as smooth as it once was before. Then there was that period of time when we couldn't even flash back to 4.3. Remember?
I have a Note 4, on the unfortunate 4.4.4 Kitkat running VPN, AFWall+, and Xprivacy, along with some other tweaks for privacy. Everything works great....Not Note 3 days on 4.3 great, but I'm not complaining....however, I'm a little concerned that history might repeat itself like with the 4.3 to 4.4 nightmare....
Then comes Lollipop 5.0.... and now the S6 that we all want comes stock out of the box with Lollipop 5.0.1
As a victim before coming from a perfectly working Note 3 on 4.3 to experiencing a nightmare after upgrading to 4.4, I do not desire to go through all of that again and regretting it....but it's different now because we're talking about jumping devices AND to a different version of the software.
So here's the deal:
VPN - I have yet to see any confirmation if whether OpenVPN stays connected on Lollipop 5.0.1 ? With all this tightening down on security and google screwing with the code the behavior and stability of how well VPN will stay connected is in question.
Xposed - Doesn't seem to be working well with Lollipop...bootloops to it crashing.....sucks....
Xprivacy - One of the most important of them all seems to not work on Lollipop, not because of Xprivacy itself, but due to Xposed causing it to crash. So from what I've gathered, until Xposed comes out with an update to play nice with Lollipop, we're kind of SOL until that happens. This sucks....really sucks....
AFWall+ - Still unknown on how it'll behave on Lollipop 5.0.
I keep my set up pretty simple and straight to the point and do my best to keep it clean as possible. Personally I don't like clutter and keep only the apps that I really need and use.
I've had a chance to spend quite some time with the S6 and S6 Edge and I must say that I'm impressed. Like some of you, although I absolutely love the Note 4 and will be getting the Note 5 for sure when it comes out, I do miss having a phone-phone. So call me strange or whatever, but I'm really wanting to get the S6 Edge to experience a phone-phone again and enjoy it for ~5 months until the Note 5 comes out hopefully in September.
The only thing holding me back on getting the S6 Edge is the issue with Lollipop 5.0.1 that comes loaded with it and Xprivacy not working because of the lack of update of Xposed to dance well with Lollipop. As for the VPN and Firewall, I'm pretty optimistic those will be fine.
So is there anyone else out there with similar concerns? Again, I know all of this probably would only apply to 0.1% of the people out there, but hey....for what it's worth..... I've posted it.....so we'll see....
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks all and cheers to the release of the incredible S6!
I currently have an HTC one m8 on 5.01 and use openvpn all the time. Unless Samsung broke something I don't see that being an issue. Xposed will get working I'm sure just need patience as they are focusing on stability for 5.

Great to know. Thanks for sharing...I did see this morning a link where it said that Xposed update for Lp5.0 should be out by next week! Hope this is true.....
Xposed is out. Just wont work for tw at the moment.

Does anyone know if the S6 Edge will come with the encrypted filesystem out of the box? I haven't had a Samsung on Lollipop yet and I am curious how their security is going to line up with the new features Google is trying to push.

Very good question and I too am curious about this....I'd imagine with Lp5, the encryption "protocol," would have improved, but who knows....it's hard to say....however, I do know that the security aspect of things has improved over the previous versions so in that case, I hope this translates to the stock filesystem encryption to be better...
:fingers-crossed:
Wasn't there suppose to have been an update for Xposed to work on Lollipop (w/ TW) over the weekend?
Or did I miss the memo? LOL
I take it that this is the best post to follow for now on any updates:
Hola,
Need some testers... Lollipop lickers.
NOW TESTING:
GOLD ROM 1.0 a2: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952599995
Really a well put together ROM minimal theming adds gold text and shades of gold to different stock apps of the phone adds to the visual appeal I think. Its also very very fast. Scored higher in benchmarks than any other ROM I've made or ported. I believe this will be the final public 1st release for US var
Super6 v1 based on Albe95's S6 1.5: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23991606952604733
Beautiful doesnt speak enough to the visual appeal of this ROM. Besides out performing Stock and nearly every other ROM for Lollipop (xcept GOLD) its all S6 ported apps except for a few Note4 apps I snuck in instead of buggier S6 ports. Only kept the flawless S6 ported apps which is everything but camera and I'll be swapping out the phone I believe in the actual public release. need some feedback on this 1 as I'm not completely sure all will have same results
I'll be uploading deodexed-debloated Stock ROMs later today. Along with 4 custom ROMs very soon. Test for these here before public releases are posted in Development section. Please give me feedback on any issues with the ROM and be sure and specify which your using! For now installation procedure is the same as my newest ROM: Echoe v49 found in Development section. ALL MY TESTS WILL USE SAFESTRAP OPTION OR TWRP FOR MDK USERS. NEVER FLASHFIRE UNTIL ITS KINKS THAT CAUSED ME TO KNOX 0X1 ARE WORKED OUT AND IT SUPPORTS AROMA OR SIMILAR INSTALLATION OPTIONS! THE WAY THIS I UPGRADE HAS 0 RISK FOR EVER BRICKING DEVICE OR BREAKING WARRANTY!
Coming soon...
Albe95's S6 Port for VZW!
Albe95's Lollipop 3.1 for VZW!
CarHD Lollipop Port VZW!
Stock Debloated-Deodexed-Rooted Lollipop with Install Options for VZW!
gogolie's gogoDeluxe Lollipop VZW!
GPE 5.0 Port VZW!
a few S5 to S4 Lollipop Ports awaiting permissions to use!
a brand new, sick and ridiculously overboard in terms of options, themes and mods available custom rom I'm calling LiCK for VZW!
A few never before seen US ports of Foreign ROMs!
I'll take suggestions when I'm done with above ROM's all of which have been built once but more time/testing/bug removal is needed before public release. Stay tuned to this thread for updates on these and more!
-thats all for now
gogolie
just in case
I better snag this too.......
Can't wait for the GPE 5.0 for VZW.
Let us know when FlashFire is safe to use and I'm up for testing at that point!
Add me to the list of folks anxious to see if you can get a GPE 5.0 for VZW working, especially if it's something that can work with our SafeStrap-limited phones.
Sure, add me to the list of beta testers!

Although I really hope you can get this working. I really doubt it... a bench of us have tried, and other than getting a bootanimation to come up, we haven't gotten very far... the issue lies in the fact that Samsung changed the way that the ART runtime works with the Samsung Kernel, and therefore, the Samsung kernel is looking to deal with the Samsung ART runtime, and the AOSP ART just loops at some random error. If we try to switch out the AOSP ART with Samsung, the ROM fails to even boot to bootanimations.

well thats no fun np I hadn't a chance to try the build yet but I literally was about too just running thru my threads answering user questions now... maybe theres hope in @hsbadr Multisystem as a work around or was that as a possible option explored already? I guess they may have to settle for a Hybrid if thats the case. But I still have confidence no one even thought GPE was a possibility on i545 till i brought out those 4.2.2 ROMs and proved it was indeed possible with SS. Then over course of last summer when I found all the International GPE ROM's that would boot and were converted into what we have for options now on 4.4.2 -4.4.4 til now we've either found work arounds for issues or fixes. I was literally about to release a fully working gpe 4.4.2 rom with mtp,wifi and a killer aroma installer with a sh*T load of options before lollipop came out of nowhere... I'm doubting the your negative attitude np ;P looks like @Joe-Tech was able to get a 5.0 GPE ROM to Boot. From looks of it based off Echoe GPE. I'm willing to put down $50 says we have at least a semi functioning GPE ROM by end of the month. what are u gunna call kitpop when 5.0 rolls around? I'm thinking the name no longer fits bro lol better start brainstorming that 1 bud heres Joe's 5.01 test zip he had gotten it to boot and as far as the setup screen before being plagued with FCs and restarts. Did ya'll check that out yet and see why hes able to get a lot further than a bootanimation? I know I've been gone for a while but literally nothing has changed til a week ago. I just wish a breakthru on the bootloader would happen already.... sick of crossing my fingers and hoping would hiring a qualcomm dev to do some internal research help maybe petitioning them with all the bounty money would be easier than cracking it via an undiscovered exploit. christ i just realized im way too baked wrote a minibook response and can barely hold my eyes open. hell at this point im just happy we finally got lolli. I was really doubting if verizon was even going to release her for a while there lol

Well, Joe said it boots... but not one can get it to. He released that Zip, and multiple ATT testers confirmed that they couldn't get it to boot either, following his exact instructions. It is based off Echoe though, haha.
As for you 4.4.2 KK GPE ROM, you got MTP working? Mind sharing how you did so? I got UMS working as an MTP alternative on the ATT variant, but UMS doesn't work for the VZW model, as the VZW CD Installer takes over in the place of UMS.
Haha, I thought about the new ROM name actually. I'm thinking of calling it NextS4 or something similar. That's granted we can figure this all out BTW, it you want it, we did figure out WiFi AP, and packaged it into a nice WiFi AP app for the GPE SS ROM's, you can just yank it out of KitPop if you want to use it. It just requires Secure Settings (the app), XPosed, and Root.
So many options!!!
Unfortunately it didn't fully flash since It had an error during installation after install the apps. Right now, I couldn't get my phone booted and having issues flashing via Odin. So I'll have to try this again once I reflash the partitions on my phone again and reroot and all.
Will try to update once I've gotten everything done.
Bring on stock rooted, deodexed, debloated. I'm in.

hopefully uploading in a few hours. only setback on her was the phone/contacts rebuilding the APK kept causing weird FCs for Phone. Really annoying actually. If I pop another Phone into the Stock Phones place it works like a charm. Havent had a chance to see whats really the issue with that specific apk because I've been so overwhelmed with all these options and having to catch up to the rest of the scene thats been on and used to lollipop. i will say ive had better benchmarks than ever before with the few ROM's I just uploaded. The 1 will be instant favorite around here. just hoping everyone gives Gold a shot too cause its my fav so far...
but heres a few for you guys to test... let me know if you get same result with Albe95 S6 port with the phone which is that it works but its weird from time to time wont let you hang up or use dialpad incall. I'm working a new version of this ROM before public releasing but its a really really cool ROM Albe's out done hiimself. Personally looks better than S6 Stock to me (not a fan of the ugly VZW Swamp Green on stock dialer)
I'd wipe System and Data when installing these ROM's... but feel free to try dirty not sure what the results will be. Remember 1st boot of Lollipop ROM's takes a good 15mins sometimes just to load the System!

Tried the GOLD version a couple of times.
The first was obviously a bad download.
After another download, the second resulted in a bootloop.
I'm on MDK with TWRP 2.8.4.0. Do I need to upgrade TWRP or something else I need to do? I've been able to boot other AOSP/GPE/CM Lollipop ROMs but may be missing something.
neither rom works
I downloaded gold and super6 a few times
each time did an advanced wipe and then tried each rom ... neither has an aroma installer?
both rebooted to stock recovery screen
so i am now flashing another gogolie rom to play with
any ideas what i missed if anything?

Just to follow up. I have been successful at flashing the stock Lollipop from muniz_ri so my problems appear specific to the GOLD ROM (haven't tried the other yet).
getting ASOP to work is gonna require a pretty substantial rewrite of the ROM source
the issue goes much deeper then samsung fiddling with ART
most likely gonna need to wait for samesung to release vzw LP source and then see what exactly they changed
not impossible but I highly doubt by the end of the month

Thanks for the update. Wish Samsung would have just left Lollipop alone -_- especially when cm 12.1 runs so well on my ageing Toro GNexus.
Anyone know if this is likely to happen or if it is already happening for the Verizon variant of the Note II? Would be cool get on 6.0
We're still waiting for 5.x, let alone 6.x, lol. There have been rumors floating around for 5.x, but I'm not holding my breath.
marshmallow on note 2
Marshmallow wont come to note 2 and lollipop wont either. Samsung cancelled the development. so looks like Note 2 has reached its update limit. I think Nexus will be my next phone as they seem to be fast on new software updates.
Who needs um ?
Just run custom stuff. I'm on 5.1.1 right now and I'm sure it won't be long before 6.0 ROMs show up around here
People who are stuck on 4.2.2.

5.x ROMs are really buggy on the N2. And I've tried them all. Always kept coming back to 4.4.2.
Shame really. Note 2 is still, by far, an awesome phone.

Ditto. Even though I added a Note 5 the Note II is still awesome. Unfortunately, CM12.1 is still not 100% and it's even worse than I last tried about half a year ago. Along with existing issues like no mobile data until reselecting APN but there's now new graphics glitches during initial setup. Went back to 4.4.2 where it's 100%. Hope CM13 will be usable.

I meant a custom ROM, I know a stock update is never going to come. Samsung was initially planning on sending out a Lollipop update but then it just sorta fizzled out.
I got 5.1.1 in my note 2 (N-7100) and so its running really smooth. Can't really find any bugs...everything's been running perfectly. The only thing not working is the face detection in smart lock. Other than that its very good.
I'm constantly using 5.x (CM12) on my Note 2 for about 6 month now.
The development has reached a status which I can't complain about.
With Undervolting + Power nap I get awesome battery times and with the custom themes.
My Note 2 has so many scratches. The screen has many cracks (which are held together by a display protector) too.
It simply refuses to die.
With CM12.1 I love this piece of hardware ^^
some roms?
Hi I have the Nemesis Rom and I'm very happy, but since I discovered the CM13 6.0.1 for our notes I'm thinking to change.
The fact is I used most of the samsung features (Snote, scrapbook, etc) Is there any possibility to integrate them with CM13? If not do you recommend me another Rom better than Nemesis?
Just dreaming I guess. Thank you!
Android 12 has now been released for the Tab S6 4G version in India, UAE, Germany and Bolivia at least.
Anyone used it yet, any feedback, is it OneUI 4.0 or 4.1?
I'm in the UK so still waiting patiently.
Nothing here yet, also UK
Same in US
UK available Friday Afternoon 13th May, about time.
I got the OTA update notice for One UI 4.1 Android 12.
I think it's been 3-4 days now. I'm postponing it every day, but it keeps trying to install.
Is this an update that removes a root exploit?
I have had that happen before on an older phone & that was a real mess.
(obviously It's not rooted now, but I don't want to make it harder when I finally decide to mess with it)
It adds a few features that I think should have been here at launch and makes it nicer to use overall. I like it. It hasn't won me back to being a full time Android user, I still prefer using iOS now, but I definitely enjoy using the s6 more than before when I pick it up now.
