Solid ASAP 4.4.4 ROM? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 5

I know every developer is making the jump to lollipop. But are there any solid AOSP ROM based off 4.4.4? That's not cyanogenmod?

Not exactly what I'm looking for. I've been in that forum and I'm wondering specifically about using Roms like the Liquid Smooth 4.3 AOSP on ME7.

Verizon Galaxy s4 MI1 update

Hey guys, just some things I've been curious about lately. I just updated to MI1 and rooted it. Is there any way to download safestrap and install custom ROMS such as CM 10.1? Can maybe give me the link to a YouTube video showing me how to flash roms with safestrap? Someone please confirm (or deny) affirmatively whether or not I can flash specifically CM and if not, what about any other ROM? I would probably prefer the stock 4.3 ROM over anything

you can not use cm roms or any 4.3 has to be 4.2
But 10.1 is 4.2.2
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
You can only use stock kernel with safe strap and cm has there own kernel so it won't work
What about AOKP or the stock 4.3 ROM?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
TW only. Stock kernel only.

Are there any AOSP based ROMS that allow use of the stock kernel? If not, are there plans to show custom kernels in SS?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It is impossible for an AOSP rom to be based on the stock kernel. There is a list of safestrap compatible roms in the general section, I would suggest Eclipse as it has AOSP styling.
Kexec support is being worked on which will enable custom kernels, but its going to take a long time.

Wow, I only like AOSP based ROMS. Is there any way at all to flash CM or AOKP onto my rooted S4?

Not if you have ME7 or MI1.

Why is it that I could flash with MDK and not with newer versions? Something with kernels?

That's because the bootloader in the S4 is locked, and will not boot an unsigned recovery (i.e. an official one from Samsung.)
There's a bug in the MDK bootloader that allows bypassing that check, which allows a custom recovery to be installed and booted.
That custom recovery then allows you to install whatever ROM you like.
Releases after MDK have that bug fixed so there's no way to use a custom recovery. Safestrap allows you to start a custom recovery by using the standard kernel to get Safestrap loaded and started up. Since it's not running on the bare metal of the phone, Safestrap can't overwrite the bootloader or kernel, so you can only use ROMs that work with the standard kernel.
Eventually, if kexec gets working, Safestrap will be able to host nonstandard kernels, making many more ROMs possible.
That is sweet because I really want to try CM or AOKP. I will probably like AOKP better but who knows. Can I expect this update allowing for custom kernels soon?

Who knows? That's why I said "if kexec gets going". If the devs can't figure out how to boot a custom kernel, Touchwiz-based ROMs are it.
Oh okay. Thanks a lot though hopefully kexec does get going cause I'm not a big fan at all of touchwhkz

Carbon rom

Fyi: Carbon ROM IS compatible with the developer edition. I didn't know this until I installed it a few minutes ago. This is for anyone else out there that didn't know this. Until now I thought PAC and CM11 were our only options

i haven't seen this rom before. i suggest you to use the things which support on your rom. PAC and cm11 will be used.

Can this be used on safestrap?

Has anyone tried the official release of cm12? I downloaded and flashed through recovery and got errors.

It is still early to use CM12 as a daily driver ROM, but it is working ... For the most part.
Please reference the unified Samsung galaxy s5 thread for CM12 related questions:

Thanks. I'm running that now but was just wondering if it's official will it hammer ? out some of the bugs. Now that I've gotten an android watch and Bluetooth sound bar the Bluetooth issues are more prevalent for me. But hey its worth the compromise. Just looking for a fix. ?

I found this AOSP ROM that is lollipop it works great here is a link if anyone wants to check it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=57228136
Im running it and its more than good enough to use as a daily driver. I had a few force closes, but nothing crazy. The camera works fine. The battery life has slightly degraded in my opinion. Just make a nandroid backup just in case you want to revert, you probably wont though.

I personally find Liquid Smooth's lollipop a bit more stable...
http://www.drdevs.com/devs/teamliquid/Nightly/S5_GSM/LS-LP-v4.0-2015-01-14-liquid_klte.zip
Give these nightlies a shot!
Liquid Smooth usually beats Cyanogenmod to a stable build with a 6 to 8 month lead.
I use PA GAPPS Beta 5.0.X

5.0 TW kernels?

I know posting to other sites isn't generally accepted, however, I would really like to have a custom kernel for lollipop. Anyone know of any that exist?
Thanks
