If you ever heard of Blekota S5 ROM for the S3, you'd see that they did the impossible to get the S5 camera working ... and they failed. It's impossible, unless you're reaching beyond it guys!
@balliboxer
And ...
@aapav01
I'd like to help in development. Can I be in?

Do you mind if I created a custom debloated version to send the size down to 620 MB?
I will post it up here when done.

I did it!
Took the old GenNxt ROM (the camera works in that one, that's why) and stripped it up.
It's now 631 megs.
Removed almost all Sammy bloat and features (even good old AllShare!), except TouchWiz Home.
But the problem is that Messaging got broken. FC when opening a message (but Google Play alternatives work fine).
Working on a fix for this on the weekend.

I also changed the default background (/system/wallpaper) to the Note 4 ones.
Sideloading the Note 4 leaks and broken apps, too.
