Hi,

I have some very basic questions about using a custom ROM in general, and on the Galaxy S6 more specifically. My old phone died today (Nexus 4) and I thought about getting the S6 now.

The problem is, I hate TouchWiz. I only really like Stock Android, which is why I got a Nexus in the first place. However, since I don't like the newest iteration of the Nexus (Nexus 6), I thought about getting the Galaxy S6 (because the hardware is great) and then switch to a custom ROM.

Since I've never done that (never even rooted my phone before), I just wanted to know the following things:

- Is it easy to put a custom ROM on the Galaxy S6?
- Are there custom ROMs for the Galaxy S6 that resemble Stock Android and still make use of its unique hardware features (eg fingerprint reader, camera features,...)
- I've heard some things about CyanogenMod, is it any good? Is it available for the S6 and is it updated frequently by the developers? If so, once the custom ROM is on the phone, will you get updates over the air?
- Will CyanogenMod for example also be updated to the newest Android versions (like 5.1.1 currently)? By this I mean, do the developers of CyanogenMod incorporate security and performance fixes made by Google?
- For how long can I expect updates for this custom ROM, for the Galaxy S6?

Thanks in advance!
