This is my first ROM EVER. I am going to be updating this ROM frequently over time as I see fit. If you have requests please post in a comment below!



Shout Outs:

Geohot (For working on rooting our device and EVERY device he can with www.towelroot.com)
Hashcode0f (For making SafeStrap compatible with our phone and making flashing .zip's possible!)
BeansTown106 (For his Base Build/Mods.)
Misterxtc (For taking the time to read my multiple PM's and helping me learn how to compile a flashable ROM!)
Google/Samsung (For making an amazing device/OS for us to play with.)
Creators of Archikitchen here on XDA (For providing the tools necessary to ROM.)
Everyone else who has contributed that I did not mention.





This ROM is based on BeansTown106 Odex Base. (It was DeOdexed using ArchiKitchen.)



ROM:

Android 4.4.2 (NCG Base)
DeoDexed
Zipaligned
Busybox
Rooted
Knox Free
Native Hotspot
Removed Verizon OTA Updater
DeBloated (Everything intact to make everything functional minus crap not needed.)
Read/Write to external storage (Should be working, let me know if it doesn't.)
Art should work (I do not use it.)
Private Mode does NOT work (ROM is DeOdexed.)




Features:

Android L Keyboard (Must enable in Language & Input Settings, Also, go to advanced settings and change color/theme to Material)
Android L Alarm Sounds
Android L Ringtones
Android L Notification Sounds
Android L Bootanimation (Removed Boot Sound)
Android L 5.0 Launcher (Touchwiz Launcher Removed)
8SMS Added (enable as default for AOSP style messaging)
Removed all Verizon Bloatware


Here is the Android L Bootanimation with the ROM:

Some applications such as Play Movies, Play Music, and My Files have not been removed yet so you can debloat it even more. SHealth among other features were left in ROM due to seeing people request for things to be left on.



Instructions:

I am NOT responsible for your device and if you do not flash properly or something goes wrong. This ROM has been tested on my own Retail S5 and has flashed just fine with no issues.

1: Download ROM and put on External SD card (or internal if it works for you)
2: Also Download SuperSU from HERE and put in same place you have the ROM zip
3: Reboot into SafeStrap Recovery and select ROM slot you want to install it on (Most likely on ROM slot 1)
4: Once in desired ROM slot, go to Wipe, and swipe to wipe (default wipe settings in SS should be good enough)
5: Go to main SS screen and press Install (Then navigate to the ROM zip and flash it, then flash SuperSU zip immediately after)
6: On first boot, you might get a Setup Wizard FC (Just press OK and don't worry about it as it will only appear once)

Bugs:

1: Turning location on automatically goes to off when you accept.

Fix:
After a few battery pulls it will allow you to turn it on. (I am searching as to why this happens. It might be something I removed)

With that launcher and such, does some of the touchwiz things work, like the clock/weather widget?

So is your goal here to debloat EVERYTHING? I've been waiting to see a ROM that has only the bare bones stuff needed to function.

Sounds awesome. And right up my alley. I like the asop look and don't mind a few mods that make things better. But I hate bloat. And yes, I consider S Health bloat ;)

Not a bad start but a few bugs ....

1) Cannot turn on location settings. When you do and you get the screen to either ACCEPT or DECLINE the location reporting terms no matter what option you press location settings remain disabled.

2) Cannot hold the power button and reboot as you just get the phone locked up at the ANDROID splash screen

3) Not a bug but no ActiveSync support unless you flash the native email APK which I had to do to get my corporate email to work ...

Location settings is the big one ....

Got ya ... So then the only real issue here with this ROM is the location settings issue.

Well as a follow-up after 2 or 3 battery pulls I am now able to modify location settings.
