[Completed] [Q] Samsung galaxy S5 reboot problem - XDA Assist

I recently flashed Liquidsmooth v4.0 2015-03-17 android version 5.0.2 on my Samsung Galaxy S5 G900F. The first few days it worked great, I loved the ROM and the performance. But recently when I've been using it, it's rebooting every other minute, sometimes I don't even have time to write in my PIN-Code. This is obviously a huge problem and renders my phone pretty much useless, so unless you guys can help me I'm gonna have to change back to a stock ROM. I don't know if what I have is enough information, but I will answer questions as good as I can.
Thanks in advance!

Rooting Question for New S3 User

I got my new black verizon s3 yesterday and i love it, buttery smooth. I was coming from a HTC Thunderbolt. I had rooted my thunderbolt, however since rooting that phone, i noticed that data connectivity didnt seem to be as stable as the non rooted version of that phone.
Here is my question, do you guys recommend rooting this S3 phone? Has it effected the data connectivity (dropped signals, etc)? Some advice and direction for this new S3 user would be helpful from some of you all who have been S3 users for a while. Thank you!
I would recommend rooting since there is a lot of support for the device. Data should be fine but there have been some problems either user related mistakes or bugs in a ROM. Those problems are fixable. Most of the ROMs are stable even the 4.2 ROMs.
i rooted and i think its worth it. it is easy to do and pretty low risk. I did mainly because i wanted to under clock and get better battery life. I haven't noticed any issues regarding loss of data or anything. i run into some issues at times because i try different kernals and roms that are not 100% in their stable phase. But the act of rooting itself isn't going to cause you any issues.
thanks guys, i am going to root the phone tonight after work. i browsed thru the rooting instructions for the jellybean update software (which i got when i activated my phone). I just didnt want to run into unstable data connections like i had with my thunderbolt.
Can you guys recommend any good 4.1 Roms as well as 4.2 roms? Also what is the difference between android 4.1 & 4.2?
It depends on the ROM as all 4.2 ROMs as of now are AOSP ROMs while the 4.1 ROMs are either TW based or AOSP based.
TW is ok... better then Sense IMO, however I like the stock ASOP feel. I will give a 4.2 rom a try. can you recommend a popular, 100% working 4.2 ROM? I looked in the dev section and there are so many Roms to choose from........ 24 hours of having my S3 and i LOVE it! so buttery smooth!
Blackbean 7 Is the most stable of the bunch as of now.
Ok. If you are going to root and Rom there are some things you need to know.
Your going to want to unlock your boot loader. And make an imei backup incase you lose it during a flash.
Search those up and get them done and your good to go

Do you mean Cm 10.1? Because if you flashed cm10 you're still on 4.1. Cm10 has a stable release while cm10.1 is still on nightlies. I've been running 10.1 nightlies for about a month and have only noticed very minor issues. So minor I can't even remember what they are.

[Completed] Rebooting every other minute

I recently flashed a custom rom (Liquidsmooth 5.0.2 v.40 2015-03-17) on my Galaxy s5 G900F, and it worked fine the first few days.
But recently when I've been using it or having it in my phone it's been restarting all the time, making it practically useless.
I've loved the ROM so far, but I'm gonna have to revert if I can't use it for more than a few minutes.
I don't really know what information is needed, so I'll do my best to answer other question that might be needed. Thanks in advance!

Hello, and welcome to XDA! If you flashed it from here on XDA, you could always ask in the thread, after registering. Alternatively, you could flash a different rom. There are some more up-to-date ones here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/unified-development. It might simply be that you installed something that was conflicting with the rom. A clean reinstall might solve your problem.
Good luck!

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500) | ROM Suggestion

Hi guys, I use Android 5.0.1 stock version on my phone, but it uses too much space.
I want to flash a new custom rom, which is lighter, and better than this. I used CyanogenMod but it only has nightly version, and it was not really stable(it still has camera, snapchat, on call problems).
So I am asking if you can suggest me a stable, lightweight and nicely designed(like touchwiz or cm) ROM.
thank you for your time.

You're not the first person to make this mistake, but this is the wrong forum. This forum is for the Galaxy S 4G, a first generation Galaxy S device that was released in 2010. The forum you're looking for is located at http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/.
There,, you'll find many, many different opinions on what ROM/kernel combination is best, search and read through the threads. Also, since its a Exynos-based device, Custom ROMs are very difficult to make and most will have at least some bugs.

Galaxy S6 - Resurrection Remix Rom

So I have recently installed Resurrection Remix on my Galaxy S6 SM-G920F and everything went smoothly...until something didn't.
My only problem with this Rom (I only believe its the rom, I haven't flashed my samsung backup yet) so far has been that when calling out or receiving calls, most of the time, I cannot be heard.
This even appeared to cause problems with my in-car bluetooth.
Does anyone have any solution to this problem or anyone suffered with this? I need to be able to use my phone as a phone for work especially.
Thank you in advance!!
It's a known problem on AOSP ROMs.
The only thing you can do is wait for bugfix.

Total shame because its an amazing ROM. I absolutely hate the TouchWiz UI and don't want to have to go back to it...might not have a choice at the moment.
Can you help me please? How did you install RR? I also have the S6 g920f. I tried it but it doesn´t work.
