What's Gonna be the First Custom Rom? - Verizon Galaxy S 5 General

I don't mean like the stock rom rooted, i mean a port of CM or MIUI that's stable. What do you hope to be the first stable custom rom?
Personally, I've used Miui since i had my first Droid X, used it on my Nexus as well. Hoping for it on my S5 some time

I bet it will be a hyperdrive rom ran through safestrap.

I've ported roms myself to my galaxy nexus prior, but obviously with not much known about the S5, i'm not sure I wanna risk self porting. I'm trying to port a CM rom

We aren't going to see any of those ported to the normal vzw s5 because we have a locked bootloader. All we'll see, for now, is touchwiz.

Don't be so sure of that. The S4's is still locked (NON MDK) for almost a year now with no success. There's plenty of good TW based ROMs though, Eclipse being my favorite which he said when he gets an S5 he will create one.

I HOPE SO!!! Loved Hyper on my GS4. Almost went back to it since we didn't have root. SUPER glad we are making progress towards getting ROMS, root & SS. Who is the maker of HD?? Any rumblings around the GS5 HD ROM??

I don't care which one comes out first, as long as it's dark...

Comming from a GT- i9100 using CM I was hoping to see one for the sm-G900v. Any reason why it may not be done?

Bootloader is locked on this device, and likely won't ever get cracked. So no custom recoveries which means no custom kernels and no custom ROMs. There is only safestrap which will only allow you to flash touchwiz based ROMs, so no AOSP based ROMs.

If you want aosp/aokp then go to Verizon galaxy s3 original android development and compare the many roms. If it's touch wiz you want then go to Verizon galaxy s3 android development and compare the many roms in that thread. They are all a little different and it depends on what your looking for. The links to flash are right there on the 1st page of the op. To ask someone for best rom and link sounds a little lazy to me. What if someone sent you wrong link and you ended up bricking your phone. Wouldn't you like to do a little research and make sure your getting the right zip? Just my opinion but what do I know.

Welcome to my world. It is a shame because I am betting a vanilla AOSP rom would run great on this tablet compared to the TouchWiz rom which is fine until I use it after using my Galaxy Note 2 and then it feels a bit sluggish.
I assume that the problem is the modem. I am not sure if flashing a ROM for one of the wifi models will boot. I am scared to try.

You are lucky. At least you have JB. I have the ATT I497 and it still has ICS. Been trying to find out if I could at least install your ROM on my tablet but no one ever answers. Development is dead for these 2 versions.

@dwitherell is the dev that has tweaked. It is ICS, but he has talked about updating it.

I just don't think there is a strong want for touchwiz. It would take a lot of work to get it going. I would suggest finding a blaze dev that would do it and get some donations together.
Yeah the chops needed to craft JB TW on the Blaze are well beyond me. I started updating and further tweaking the ICS-based rom I put together, but I'm not a real dev, just a smali-hack sort that focuses primarily on tinkering with carrier-pushed stock packages.

Sure (that's what I was thinking), but it would likely need to be from a similar device (or at least much easier if so) - still out of my skillset though, and from my understanding they can be painful to pull off (disclaimer: never did one so I don't know - the exhilerate one doesn't count as I did next to nothing for it).

Since we don't have JellyBean for the Blaze it wont be "stock" possible. Unless you're okay with a CM themed ROM that makes it look like Touchwiz..

I have a non-booting one. Stuck with some errors (which I've forgotten what they were). If I can find it I might look into it. I haven't been on in awhile so if I my ask. Is there a 4.3 version of Remics-JB floating around?
Well for the blaze.. Not currently... If you're asking about a 4.3 version of Remics-JB, im not sure either, as since the only way i knew about it was cause of my galaxy player, which I traded for store credit.. But I'm sure with all our support, testing and whatnot.. Who's to say we can't get a booting remics-jb ROM? We've made it this far right?

I doubt that the new TW will look much different than it does now. And I'm sure that when official 4.4 makes its way to our device it'll be ruined in some way by Samsung. There are a lot of things I like about TW but pure AOSP KitKat is going to win every time

There's still some things broken in CM 10.2 and the other 4.4 ROMs that are being worked on, which is why I still use 4.3 at the moment. Source coding should make it easy to fix those issues, and fully functional ROMs should come from it.
But I could be wrong, that's just my experience from other phones and other android versions. And what Samsung released today may not even be the same kind of source coding that I'm thinking of.

When the 4.4 GPE update hits, it'll be easily converted to work on all carrier S4's based off the Snapdragon 600. The international version, however, is a completely different story.

No, that OTA is for the Google Play Edition S4. Not the i337 or any other i337X phone.
But if you have a recovery installed on your i337X, then you can install a ported version of this OTA.
I doubt i337X will see KitKat OTA official for 3-4 more months.

Yes, the reason why I posted this was for your mentioned reason, custom recovery installs. I wasn't referring to any 4.4 based TW OTAs from the carriers.
