Yeaaaah!! Thanks a bunch!
What do u mean by unofficial? It isnt your rom "unofficial" or is it because its unstable "unofficial" or simply because the base is from cm?
Thanks and sorry for the noob question guys... I just always wondered what an "UN"official rom is doing in an "Original development section"

But none the less thank u so much for the rom bout to flash it Now!!!! Any bugs i should know about?

I think it means someone just took the carbon sources and built it. But the device isn't supported and maintained by the carbon team :S
So you wouldn't find Galaxy S5 roms on the carbonrom website.

Camera not included in ROM. Added Google Camera from Play Store and it can't connect to the camera.

So far other than the camera and vibration bug everything seems super smooth and fluid. Very nice for a Beta

Mine isnt smooth, it lags so bad... Is Is It because i used twrp ? I wiped everything, flashed with the provided slim apps, without it, then after... And nothing it starts lagging right into the boot screen then when i hit next...it stays stuck on welcome... ?
Anyone else having this issue?

Thanks in advance!!

    I vote to close this thread.

    I vote for you to learn what the word "unofficial" means.

    OP owes you nothing.
