Same on my note 4 - I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done to improve that.

Yeah last apps button lags like hell...
It helps a little when often clear last apps.
But it is just a little workaround not solving the problem.
I don't have the Embedded Secure Element opytion in NFC settings on XtreStoLite rom. Does anyone else have this issue or know how to fix it? I flashed over the top of xsa 5.0 with NFC working properly
Disable the multi-window support, it speeds it up a bit. only custom roms really remove it (Dr.Ketans L7 removed it for me, its a port of the S6 touchwiz)
My battery life has gone back to normal. Just needed to wait a few days post upgrade.Omg battery life is terrible.
On charger till 7am this morning.
100% battery at 7am.
Minimal use today. No phone calls. A few text. Checked email twice.
Its now mid day. 15% battery left.
Settings -> battery reports has been off charger >1 day however has only been off battery for 8hrs.

has anyone used the latest Omega ROM 18 ? I'm thinking of flashing this as the stock lolipop memory leak is making the phone so laggy. Was wondering if performance was improved in Omega ? First time I'm flashing a custom rom on the samsung ( Done many times in the past on my htc and sony )
telstra dont sell locked phones anymore. that phone will work fine with any networks SIM card.
It's just that if he owes them money on a contract, they could deactivate it if he stops paying.
I found it in titiuam backup. However it will not allow me to install it keeps saying app not installed I just find the CM 12.1 camera app not good
A real weird one, install Omega Rom V18, and all good except with the Play Store, some apps seem to take either ages - like hours to download on wifi and others download fine. On 4g, I have no issue at all. A quick google, seemed to suggest that the WIFI Country code could be an issue, but I have no idea where or how to look for this and change it.
that wont be the issue at all. the only thing that could cause problems on wifi is your internet connection itself - DNS settings, or just crap internet.
no its not, internet quality is fine, downloading 20 mb podcasts or some play store apps is fine. for example. titanium backup root key app crashed, but downloading say Omega Files app from play store was no issue.
Not any more, since Apple and Samsung decided not to sue each other anymore. New ROMs do not have the dock locked down.
Yet they still have that stupid let's not auto-rotate images in their gallery app.
Looks like there's a new xtrestolite type project!

Edit the G900I dock (if rooted):
Open the /system/csc/others.xml file and change TRUE to FALSE on the following line:
<CscFeature_Launcher_ReplaceHotseatAreaInEditMode>TRUE</CscFeature_Launcher_ReplaceHotseatAreaInEditMode>
To enable gallery auto rotate, do the following in the same others.xml file
"<CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>TRUE</CscFeature_Gallery_AddAutoRotationIcon>" and change TRUE to FALSE.
Save your changes, reboot
Please keep discussions clean, informative and relevant.8How To Install: Taiwanese 900I Firmware & Australian Modem Files
THIS POST HAS BEEN UPDATED TO ADD INFORMATION ABOUT ALSO INSTALLING THE SAUDI ARABIA FIRMWARE
INFORMATION CAN BE FOUND AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST
READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO INSTALL EITHER FIRMWARE
I know that other people have previously posted the steps in doing this, but having read the whole thread and seeing a few people have been unsuccessful, I’ve written a more detailed guide to assist those (also good for those newer to this type of stuff).
The installation of the Taiwanese 900I firmware allows Australian S5 900I handsets to move dock icons, have a camera shortcut on the lock screen and auto-rotate in the gallery without the need to unlock and root the phone (which I do not wish to do on a brand new handset due to KNOX).
These are the steps I took to install the firmware and the Australian modem files. Download Booster is working 100%, dock icons can be moved, gallery has the auto-rotate option and camera shortcut can be added to home screen (camera sound only disabled by muting phone sound) etc.
It is not compulsory to download and install the Australian modem files (I no longer have them installed).
Ignore the download/install instruction section for the Australian modem files if you will not be flashing the Australian modems.
I have tried to make the instructions below as simple as possible.
This needs to be done under Windows. You will be downloading around 3GB of files.
Download the necessary files:
- Visit SamMobile and download the Taiwanese 900I firmware (G900IZTU1ANCB).
- Proceed to download the Australian XSA 900I firmware (G900IDVU1AND2) or download the modem files I have extracted from the XSA and have uploaded to Dropbox (only if you are installing Australian modem files).
- Download ODIN 3.0.9 (link on SamMobile Taiwanese / Australian firmware page).
- Whilst these files are downloading, make sure you have a file extraction tool such as 7-ZIP or WinRAR as you will need to extract files if you are downloading the Australian XSA (no need for this if you are not flashing the Australian modem files or have already download the extracted modem files I provided).
These are the steps I took to setup and install the necessary files onto my S5 (my way may be slightly different to other people, but I believe that you should factory reset your device BEFORE installing any firmware or files):
Preparing your S5 for new firmware installation:
- BACK UP YOUR PHONE (I didn’t bother as I didn’t have much on mine and anything important will SYNC straight from ‘the cloud’).
- FACTORY RESET YOUR PHONE – THIS IS IMPORTANT (Settings/Backup and Reset: Factory Reset).
- When the phone has re-started, you need to put your phone into ‘Download Mode’. Pressing the volume down button/home button/power button simultaneously does this. Press the volume up button when asked if you wish to continue.
- Connect your phone via USB to your computer. Allow your computer time to install any necessary USB drivers for your S5.
Installing the Taiwanese 900I firmware:
- Extract ODIN 3.0.9 and then proceed to open the program.
- There will be four (4) options to the right hand side of the program screen. Select AP and locate the Taiwanese firmware file you downloaded. Click start when ODIN is ready. Your phone will restart when finished. Exit ODIN
- At this stage, I would suggest checking for OTA updates before flashing the Australian modem files. As of 24/05/14 (when I posted this), there are two files available (first file 34.7MB, second file 97.71MB).
THIS STEP IS OPTIONAL!!!
INSTALLING THE AUSTRALIAN MODEMS WILL DISABLE OTA UPDATES
Installing the Australian modem files:
- Open ODIN, and put your phone into ‘Download Mode’ (pressing the volume down button/home button/power button simultaneously does this. Press the volume up button when asked if you wish to continue).
- In ODIN, on the right hand side of the program screen, select CP and locate the modem.bin file. Hit start to flash the file ensuring your phone is restarted once finished.
- Once your phone has restarted. Turn off phone, and then place your S5 back into ‘Download Mode’ (pressing the volume down button/home button/power button simultaneously does this. Press the volume up button when asked if you wish to continue).
- In ODIN, select CP and locate the NON-HLOS.bin file. Hit start to flash the file ensuring your phone is restarted once finished.
Proceed to setup your phone with your new Taiwanese 900I firmware and Australian modem files installed (your phone will setup in English). Once your S5 is setup, check your keyboard settings to ensure your desired language is set correctly.
IMPORTANT:
Please do not attempt this if you are not confident with installing a different firmware on your S5 or if you wish to receive future OTA updates. If you do wish to get OTA updates, you can re-flash the Taiwanese modem.bin and NON-HLOS.bin files, then go into Software Update on the S5 and if there is an update available, it will download (I did this and the phone downloaded the latest updates to my S5 - first file 34.7MB, second file 97.71MB). I then flashed the Australian modem files.
I have only posted this in hope that it assists those who were not successful in gaining the working Download Booster previously. I am not responsible if you attempt this and brick your S5.
Thanks ☺
Installing the Saudi Arabia firmware:
Please make sure you follow the steps earlier in the post to backup and factory reset your S5
- Visit SamMobile and download the Saudi Arabia 900I firmware (G900IDVU1AND2).
- Download ODIN 3.0.9.
- Extract ODIN 3.0.9 and then proceed to open the program.
- There will be four (4) options to the right hand side of the program screen. Select AP and locate the Saudi Arabia firmware file you downloaded. Click start when ODIN is ready. Your phone will restart when finished. Exit ODIN
- Check for any OTA updates. There is no need to flash the Australian modem files.
