Re: Speeding up my galaxy S5

very limited what can do without rooting it.

generally we talking uninstalling unneeded apps, better kernel, possibly adjusting cpu governor, io governor, blocking certian functions and then should be faster.

Although in my view the s5 is a pretty fast phone anyway, I have the 5+ model (g901f) and it is lightning fast.

Also I suggest staying on kitkat, its much more responsive than lollipop. Seems to be a rule of thumb that the best version of rom to use (on samsung) is the version shipped with the phone.
