Samsung Galaxy S5 phones with model number G900F can now be updated to Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow using the Mokee custom ROM. The ROM gives countless options to customize and live up to its potentials.
Mokee is known to be more visually alike to factory images but definitely there is a whole lot more behind the superficial. The tweaks it brings make the ROM stable, fast and smooth.
Before pushing with the download and installation of Mokee, a few reminders and prerequisites have to be considered first:
