Thanks a lot man. This phone is a beast in quality/price when talking about hardware. Costs a bit more than 100€ and has the same hard than others at 180-200€ at least. Bad thing is software but with your TWRP and root everything is possible :D. Just found what project treble is, amazing possibilities.

Just one question... does your TWRP make proper working backups? Can I trust that a full backup will be loaded correctly after installing any unofficial ROM to go back to stock if necessary? I made once the mistake of relying a TWRP and later I found out that one was ok for flashing but didn't create working backups

No need of worrying about backups, the recoveries are stable.
The Lenovo S5 is a bang for the buck, very nice phone. Powerful camera, try gcam on it you will be amazed;)
