Good Lock
Modded Camera
The base of this rom is very close to the original Samsung Touchwiz build and I’m flashing the original stock system image as I believe that this provides the most stable rom base for the S5. This method ensures totally correct permissions and symlinks which makes the rom most stable and compatible. You can choose if you want to install the rom either odexed or deodexed.xXx System Tweaks
Based on that I added several useful CSC, build.prop and init.d tweaks for more and consistent system and network speed and improved Ram management. These tweaks also improve multitasking and keeps the system constantly fast.
A modified hosts file take care of the annoying ads and I added a fix which solves some issues which was introduced with the new security handling of Marshmallow.
Debloating
The rom is light debloated already and removes only apps which could be downloaded anytime later from Google Playstore
You could use my BareBone Cleaner to selectively remove much more apps and services which you don’t need to further improve available Ram and Speed and come down to a Barebone level and a very light Rom. The advantage to do this with the stock based TouchWiz rom is that the Camera, Bluetooth, NFC, Fingerprint etc. keep 100% working as expected.
SystemUI variations
Also I’m offering some extra flashable SystemUI options to add Good Lock or 3minit battery, the S7 white taskbar theme, and some more little tweaks.
Xposed
To round up everything you can install the Xposed framework which is totally ready to go. You just need to add the modules you want to use.
Sound enhancements
This is a combo of Viper4Android, Sony Beats, eXtremeBeats Aural Maximizer and Dolby ATMOS for a class’s better sound experience than you know it from the stock rom thanks to xda members guitardedhero, Ben Feutrill and worstenbrood.
Kernels
Currently you can choose between 3 different kernels.
Currently you can choose between 3 different kernels.
The default kernel is obviously the stock kernel for highest compatibility and stability.
If you are interested in true SELinux permissive kernels with plenty of additional features you are able to choose between the Phoenix Kernel, CrazySuperKernel and Boeffla-Kernel. Just visit their threads to see which kernel fits best your requirements.
Keyboards
Currently you can choose between 3 different keyboards.
Keyboards
Currently you can choose between 3 different keyboards.
The S5 stock keyboard, the S6 keyboard, the Sony Xperia Keyboard and the C5 Keyboard.
The S6 keyboard unfortunately do not support key vibration while this and much more options are available with the Sony and very similar C5 Keyboard.

Flash Options
In the root of the rom installer package you find the file “xXx.options.prop”.
To change any installation options you will need to edit this file with Notepad++.
You may also copy this file onto your internal or external sdcard. In this case the installer will read the options from the sdcard instead of the file inside the installer.
xXx.options.prop editing
The easiest way is probably to download the xXx.options.prop using the download link in the op or second post to your PC and install Notepad++.
Never edit this file with any other editor on your PC. But you could also edit the prop file on with your phone. In this case you can use any given editor.
Then you change all desired values. You will always get explanation line and after that the option to be changed.
Then save your changes and place the modified xXx.options.prop to the root of your internal sdcard.
This way also future rom updates will use this settings instead the default settings in the rom zip.

- Good Lock is a SystemUI enhancement developed by Samsung which provides many new options for the notification area, recent apps screen and lock screen. I added that as a third “battery.mod” option in the xXx.options.prop. Default is 0 which will install the stock SystemUI. If you set it to 2. Just flash the separate SystemUI options to get Good Lock or one of the other SystemUI options. If you flashed Good Lock you will get a new app in the drawer which provides you with configurations and tons of options.

Modem and Bootloader
It’s recommended to flash the corresponding Modem and Bootloader before you flash this rom.
As in most cases Modem and Bootloader will be flashed at the same time I combined them in one tar.md5 which have to be flashed with Odin. Just open the file AP…….tar.md5 in the “AP” section in Odin and flash it.

Debloating
This rom is only very light debloated. If you want to debloat further you could use my BareBone Cleaner.
The BareBone Cleaner is an Aroma Installer based tool which will debloat your TouchWiz Lollipop rom up to a core minimum in order to increase available ram and get rid of performance wasting apps and services which are not mandatory.
You get rid of all the Samsung crap, bloatware, the annoying “check cover” warning or other apps which you could easily add again to your personal liking from the Google Playstore.
