Already a note 5 port on XDA. Running on mine and it is flawless for me.

I tried the Note 5/S6 Edge+ rom when it first came out. Features worked but it was laggy. Is it still like that? How do you deal with it.

But I'll say this. Touchwiz is getting better. Slowly.

w1tw0lf · Oct 13, 2015

I am on the latest rc2 which came out today and so far so good. No lags on my side.

Definitely getting better.

Is that an M port?

Edit: looks like L still?

w1tw0lf · Oct 13, 2015

Dont think M is out for note 5 yet as far as I know. L on 5.1.1

shiverz · Oct 13, 2015

Don't rush to get M. Alpha roms are always bad/iffy. Then compatibility issues. Xposed and GApps for example.

How is the Note 3 on lollipop? Worth the upgrade from kit kat?

w1tw0lf · Oct 13, 2015

A lot better and smoother. Used a official L rom for note 3, had note 4 L port for awhile and now on Note 5 L port. Lollipop is definitely worth the upgrade.

K.J · Oct 13, 2015

^^ Yip, would definitely say Lollipop is worth upgrading to, really enjoying the extra speed and smoothness..

hj2k_x · Oct 13, 2015

And battery life? Better? Same? Worse??

w1tw0lf · Oct 13, 2015

Note 5 port is stil early days, cant really say.

Battery life depends on how the user uses his phone, what apps he has installed, signal strength and so on... no 2 persons battery life will be the same.

On average lollipop has had better battery for me.

I've seen people's battery's range from 12hr screen on to 7hrs to the more *normal* 3.5/4hrs.

All depends on usage. Clash of Clans murders my battery.

w1tw0lf · Oct 13, 2015

Dont even get me started on CoC

K.J · Oct 13, 2015

Early days for me, but seems with similar usage, battery life is better

How much... Wilk only really be able to tell after a few charge cycles

Are you guys referring to the performance and experience using stock Samsung lollipop 5.0?

Heard there were a few battery issues and there have been no update released since so how did you deal with that?

Nope. At least not for me. I am on Note 5 port lollipop 5.1.1.

Can say that even on stock note 3 lollipop it was better kitkat.

Then it's not really the Lollipop part of your install that's giving you the awesome battery life!

Who can report back on how stock lollipop 5.0 is, batter life and speed especially?

I am hoping that the other posters above were referring to stock 5.0 compared to stock kit kat.

Kind of true. But these apps were also on my KK roms as well. Battery life is such a subjective thing.

1 - Do you leave your GPS on or off?
2 - Is your Wifi on all the time?
3 - Do you use TBO apps + dark themes? AMOLED screens save battery on black.
4 - Screen brightness. Is it set to low or adaptive? Adaptive isn't good.
5 - Screen time out should be 30 sec.
6 - Vibrate / Haptic Feedback set to low and short.
7 - App (auto) Sync kills data and battery.
8 - Widgets syncing are battery killers.
9 - Are all your apps updated? Updates have optimizations.
10 - Ok Google anywhere - Massive battery killer.

These are the main battery killers I can think of. It all depends on your set up. When I do have a sweet set up (Cos I update the Rom sometimes with dirty flashes and it messes sh*t up) overnight I lose 0% battery. Yes 0%.

On TW you must set all those gimmicky features off as well. If you want smooth/faster performance go into developer options and drop the animation scale to 0.5x. Can also try using Nova Launcher.
