I am not on stock, but I get them as well, as well as the screen dying which requires a reboot.

timmmay: I get random reboots on 4.2.2 stock.
tanivula: I think pretty much all the tw 4.4 custom ROMs will work with the old bootloader. Think the only issues with running the old bootloader is not being able to charge while the phone is turned off.
I have run echo and goldeneye. I prefer goldeneye due to its more stock approach to be honest. Couple that with ktoonz kernel with some tweaks, it's not too hard to get 4hrs+ screen on time.

jeffnz:Bacha: hows everyone roms going? Anyone decided to try different rom? Being on Shostock rom for a while now with the old bootloader and its being smooth installed adams kernel recently battery life has been good but sometimes its worse, I am pretty sure its the apps most of the times.
I'm on the same Bacha and battery life hasn't been better to be honest. I'm itching to flash something else but everything is working fine and not interested in upgrading bootloader and tripping knox if I don't have to.
Try Greenify if you don't already have it and hibernate the likes of Facebook and others that keep the phone from going to deep sleep.

Cameron1991: Does anyone know when 2D is going to roll out 4.4? Also will my phone be able to update automatically? I reflashed my Telecom phone to get rid of the their bloatware apps and replaced it with the 2D software and I'm not sure if I will need to reflash my phone with a 2D 4.4 build to update or if it can update on its own.

Chaps, does GLONASS work with the 4.4.2 firmware Voda has approved. If you've still got it, can you please test it! It seems to be broken in all the 4.4.2 TW roms on the i9505 to date.

timmmay:Incidentally and perhaps related, I hear TouchWiz is better on the S5. Has it been back ported? Anyone tried it?
uglyb0b:
Personally I think touchwiz on the S5 looks awful. They have managed to make it look even more childish and the settings menu layout is terrible (what was wrong with the previous layout?).
