Guys, I've installed INU version Lollipop over my INS version Samsung Galaxy S5. At 1st it was very lag due to the old files and data over my old firmware. So the next thing I did was, ROOT it, install CWM Recovery and I did wipe/factory reset, wipe cache and wipe Dalvik Cache. And then when I restart my device it's smooth as butter. But if you want to smooth it out more, Just go to settings, developer option and change the Window animation scale, transition animation scale and animator duration scale to 0.5x. Now you can have a fast Samsung S5. By the way, I've installed my firmware like this. Stocked Kitkat 4.4.2, Lollipop 5.0 from Kazakhstan, backup my firmware from CWM Recovery, install Lollipop 5.0 from India INU version and restore data only from Advance restore from CWM Recovery.

      Guys after updating , I am facing lots of issue on the phone like when I click on something it does not respond in time and If I open lets say Play store through Browser to install an app it takes around 30 sec to open, Phone performance in running apps is okay but general UI its too laggy... Is there a Fix ... I have tried whipping the cache... and still nothing

              Indian S5 Lollipop update has been in the air for a while now using OTA, but only for INU version, INS version might be out for a week or so. When you try the OTA update and install an 800+ mb update, Yes It's Lollipop.

                                    I must say...Android 5.0 has all new user interface.Yes I love my Galaxy S5 but not I'm loving it more unconditionally.more buttery smooth...more powerful..material design with eye catching visuals.

                                    Must update your phone through OTA 874MB. This firmware/update is still not available through Kies.

                                    Have fun friends..
