CM 11 - Galaxy S5 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi together
Yesterday i got a S5 Mini. I'll use this device for testing and so on...
I searched for cm11 rom and i couldn't find any customrom
Are here other people interested in cm11 on s5 mini?
i never created a customrom til now, but i can help if
somebody needs infos about the device for creating
a cm11 customrom...
stiff

Absolutely!
I'm very interested! This is my only phone at the moment, though, so I can only take limited risks with its entrails.

It's coming eventually I have to finish the bugs we have on the similar device the galaxy light so far it boots .

Whooooo!!!!
Do you, by any chance, mean the G800H (Snapdragon)? I've read elsewhere that CM is unfeasible because of how closed Exynos is, but that's only in the G800F, I believe.
Edit: I got the chipset names confused... Please ignore my post! (PS: There is a G800H Duos solution).

count me in..
I have a S5 mini to test CM-M12

I'd really like to buy this phone, but it has to be rootable and flashable. Does anyone know about the other versions of the device that are talked about (G800M,G800Y)?

ROMS ...
I have the SM-G800F UK model and cannot yet find any roms ...

Maybe at Christmas. :laugh:
We all wait very long.
Would we have the normal S5 we could 7 days a week flash another Rom.
Keeping Hope alive... :good: :angel:

CM 11 (or lollipop)
Are you saying that the 800F version is an Exynos Version and therefore can't be rooted etc.? So no custom ROM? I saw S5 lollipop previews and i seriously start to dislike the colors and modifications of Samsung.

No, both version can be rooted with cwm. The exynos version will have cyanogenmod I have cyanogenmod on the Galaxy Light which also has similar hardware. I'm getting the Galaxy light very soon so I can finish my cm port.

good news. maybe i misunderstood the previous information. i have the 800F version, so if anybody needs something, let me know - i'm not a Dev and might ask questions if I don't understand. cheers
EDIT:
Will it be CM11 (Android 4.4.4) or already CM12 (Android 5.0)?

I already have cm-11 booting on the Galaxy Light. I think I will move to cm-12 when I get at least radio and wifi working.

Hard to believe we'll be getting CM when we didn't even get any normal, simple ROM, with bloatware removed for example xD.

@Unjustified Dev
that sounds really great! i really miss cm on s5 mini.
thx a lot

i think the S5 Mini is in general a great device. perfect size if you don't like huge phones, specs are fine and a great camera for the specs it has. i have seen the lollipop previews and also how it runs / looks on nexus 5. i think the S5 Mini would run lollipop perfectly and it would finally show how good this phone is. but my hope lies in all CM and other Devs and not in Samsung - because the preview of the S5 and S4 with lollipop are just hideous. i would love a clean and lean android 5.0 experience. if those moto E's and G's can run so good with pure android, why shouldn't a samsung S5 mini without touchwiz and bloatware...

@wabre thats my opinon too. i hate the samsung bloatware, but the hardware is fine.
also i don't want a brick as phone. i tested the s5 and compared it with the s5 mini.
the result is, that the s5 mini has everything i need with the right size...
the only thing that i miss is cm on the s5 mini...

rooted
Have mine rooted with twrp, but still no roms available.

have cm11 on my old s3 mini cant wait for it on my s5 mini as thats my daily phone and cyanogen is a fast os.

Getting started with porting: which device to port from?

Hello,
I decided to come in the Android development with a porting, a thing that, according to what I heard, isn' too difficult to start. I read a bit this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598713
and I believe it could be nice and a bit useful to port MIUI v4, since I haven't found any versions for our Galaxy Tab yet, maybe using CyanogenMod 9 official RC1 as base (since MIUI derivates from CM).
1) From which device should I port MIUI? Galaxy Nexus, Galaxy S2 or anything else?
2) Will I have to change the resolution of every image to adapt a phone ROM to a tablet?
3) Would it be too difficult for a person like me, who have never created or ported a ROM before? Maybe did I misunderstood anything and is a porting a terribly difficult thing? I'm asking this because I've never seen a MIUI porting for Galaxy Tab.
4) If it's too difficult, what should I do to learn?
5) Finally, the obvious question: do I risk bricking my Tab, even if in the ROM there are neither primary nor secondary bootloaders?
I'm sorry if the questions are too many.

[Q] Are there any Jellybean ROM's for SGS Plus?

Hey, again, i'm a pretty newb and i still couldn't manage to find any Jellybean ROM or port to Samsung Galaxy Plus. Are there any news about CyanogenMod 10 being ported to Samsung Galaxy S Plus?
Maybe there's a ROM already (stable with possibility to be flashed with odin would be good)?
Thank's

Phone development was dead??? no no no now development for CM9 is very active
We have only one cm10 rom, is a porting from doomsay94 end now his study for his exam.
This rom is a PREVIEW with crashing video, no camera, partially project butter (For the speed of system) and more minimal bug

Is there a stock google 4.2 ROM or any stock google like ROM for I9305??

I am not a big fan of touchWiz...
Or can it be expected? coz there are only a few ROM for i9305 right now...
Not that I know of, I'm just waiting for Cyanogenmod.. Hopefully some devs get their hands on our phones soon..

There are no 4.2 official roms for the i9305 as of yet. Once the s3 gets 4.2 then a few weeks later you can get an update to 4.2.
Latest you can get is 4.1.2 of the official roms. 4.2 is still in development stages
unfortunately not, although I am waiting for the same thing despite multi-window being awesome.
I did read over in the dev forum though that a liquidsmooth i9300 port is being worked on? not too sure how progress is going for that but hey it is the christmas break

Requesting Ubuntu Touch port to Galaxy S6.

Not sure if any developers here owns a Galaxy S6. If anyone able to port Ubuntu Touch latest to Galaxy S6 would be very appreciated.
I believe that roms of anything that isn't android will not work due to the Exynos processors not having their kernel sources released.

Excuse my ignorance as I don't have any development experience more than being a script kiddy, but was not the old Ubuntu Touch roms just sampling from CM11 sources for most of the drivers and kernel stuff?
As I say, I don't really know anything but I thought that was how it went. I don't care if there is an S6 ROM but I just want to see any port of Ubuntu touch on any device I have.
Edit: Actually it looks like it was CM10.1 for the old ones from like 2013.
Later they moved to CM11, and they may use 12 now, I'm not sure.

Tab S3 (T710) 7.0 07 7.1 ROM's

Quick question. Still got my S3 (T710) running stock 6.0.1. Do I take it that this device has too small a following for any updates to Nougat??
Also, ( now 2 quick questions!) would I be correct in assuming that the T810 ROM's don't work on the T710?
Thanks for any info.

The T710 is an S2 not an S3. I'm assuming that was just a typo. The T810 and 710 have different SoCs and won't work with each other's ROMs. It probably won't get Nougat from Samsung but it is very early days as far as getting a CM14 version. All I know is that the dev that did it for the T810 doesn't own T710 and ran into major problems trying to get CM13 to work without having one to test it on.

Was typo!! Getting all my damned S's mucked up having an S3, S6 & Tab S2.
I'm hoping for a CM14 and a couple of others to be coming along, but, all seems so quiet!
Thanks for the response.
the original mod might still be working on it. i stopped correction the boot issues with cm13
im hoping for a CM 14 or equivalent. don't want to have to buy a S3 to get android 7...
Is that good news ? http://www.sammobile.com/2016/11/18...e-5-and-galaxy-tab-s2-is-now-being-developed/
We alresdy got 7.0 and now dev working on 7.1 ?
