S4 mini i9192 - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey
I was thinking about new phone for my dad and i see i9192 s4 mini dual sim the best for him ..
Do you advice me to buy this phone and how is the overall performance of it ..?
Is there a lag in official rom ? Will it receive kit kat ?
The roms here for i9190 work on it ?.
Thank you.

If he does'nt need dual sim, you should probably get him i9190 / i9195
There are no custom ROM's available for i9192
KitKat update most probably has to come.

I would never advise this phone ever thought I have it. Samsung made a terrible dual sim implementation so far and the dev on it are reduce to root capabilities and eventually one custom kernel that will most likely void your warranty in the futur with the integration of the $^*รน$* Knox "Feature".
Do not buy this phone ever !

It's a good phone even with battery drain I can get full wotking day on a moderate work, email, whatsapp, phone calls with some twitter and Tapatalk in my spare time
The dual sim implementation it's not great but works very good 4/5 stars considering its a dualsim standby

[Q] Whats the diffrence between P601 and P905 ?

Hi master's
I want to buy this amazing tablet, but i cant decide to buy which one !
In my country i never cant user LTE, and i know P605 is LTE and P601 is only 3G.
Now whats the difference between P605 and P601 around CPU performance and Battery life ?
Thanks
If your country sell both.
I suggest you ,buy P605 Snapdragon model. :silly:
I have a P605 and while a few 601-Users were complaining here in the forums that it was not as smooth as it should be, I have no problems whatsoever.
What is the price difference?

both of them has some lags... i have P601 and my friend has P605... we placed both devices beside together and..
then..
in official firmware both of them has some lags.. but P605 had better performance...
then we installed custom roms.. for P601 Hydronium V2 (+ some improvment).. for P605 xKat V3.1(+ some improvment)
this was the result:
P601 showed the better performance and faster reaction without any lag..but not so good for very high graphical games..
P605 showed a little slow performance in boot but perfect in games..

Dont worry, I have 2 Korean models in which one of them has this bug. Just clean the screen, use a good protector and it should be enough. Yes the wet screen does cause the screen to have a mind of its own. Apps open them selves, notification toggles on and off. But its not really a big issue if you use it in a dry weather like Pakistan.

I'm living in Germany Carrier is E-Plus. Yes you'll have official kitkat but you have to use the Roms for your phone for the LTE or 3g version are much more roms available.

S4 Mini lollipop update

http://pic.youmobile.org/imgcdn/samsung_lol_eta_phones_list.jpg
What do you think how reliable is this source? According to this sheet we will get 5.0 in march to april.
Samsung has hell of a lot work to do. Because they have uncountable number of midrange devices. :laugh:
S4 Mini, S5 Mini, Galaxy A3, A5, A7, E5, E7, Grand 2, Note 3 Neo to name a few.
But certainly S4 mini and s5 mini will get in 2nd quarter of this year. :good: Once S6 is launched world wide.
http://www.androidsilverprogram.com/2014/07/List-Of-Smartphones-Getting-Android-L-update.html
At the bottom of the page is a list including the S4 Mini as well.
Although I still haven't received the 4.4.2 update in my region yet
Hoping for good things though :fingers-crossed:
Waiting........
Yup. Been checking every month this year and I haven't seen anything promised later than April. So it's crunch time! Really hoping it'll happen soon, I'm terribly annoyed by the limitation apps have writing to the sd card in any location other than their own folder. You all think that this will be different in lollipop?
i hope we get the 5.1 version straight, because 5.0 has issues
I hope this update.
Otherwise, i choose another manufacturer after years with Samsung.
I gave up the S5 Mini after realizing that has problems such as low-quality recordings (sounds captured with mic) compared the S4 Mini and the camera gets to be lower.
If this update happen I stand with Samsung and I will try a S6 Mini . Otherwise i give up Samsung.

S5 mini is a horrible device. No custom roms, no dev support because it has no source code, uses poor chipset and is priced like it is the best phone ever.
No wonder the price of that phone came down by 130$ in India within 20days of its launch.
http://www.techradar.com/news/phone...l-5-0-release-date-when-can-i-get-it--1257804
Other Samsung handsets may have to wait a little longer, although we'd expect that most high profile devices released in the last 18 months to 2 years will get the update, including the Galaxy S4 Mini and the Galaxy S5 Mini.
Let's hope the first release hasnt got all the issues the S4 firmware has/had.
Guys can anyone tell me if the stock lollipop , incase it exists, will have sdcard issues? Do i have to use sdfix or foldermount again??

Cyanogenmod 14 support?

How likely do you think it is that the I9195 will be officially supported by Cyanogenmod 14?
I really like this phone. I bought it because of its relatively small dimensions and the fact that it is still supported by cyanogenmod and it receives the latest updates. However my s4 mini is experiencing antenna problems that I'm unable to fix - the signal is unreliable so I have to buy a new phone. I'd like to buy another s4 mini however if it's not going to receive CM14 support then I'd rather buy something else.

In my opinion is officially supported but now we can say nothing

It all depends on big brother @arco68
Considering that this is a midrange phone from 2013, it has had a remarkable run in terms of custom rom support.
Many did not expect this phone to get cm13. But arco got it working. So it is all down to arco. We are lucky to have
a developer like him working on our device. Lets hope he gives it a shot, when "N" is out. Lets keep our donations ready. :good: :fingers-crossed:

SM-N7502 Not even getting KITKAT, How can I get it myself?

Hello,
My friend owns a Samsung Note 3 Neo (N-7502) and he wants to update it because it never got any updates from Samsung from the day he got it (Still running 4.3 and other versions at 5.1.1 already....)
I know there's more than a topic of discussions about this, but there's no answers so I thought the people who could help didn't notice this...
It could be CyanogenMod or anything else, just something newer, better.
He could sacrifice the usage of the 2nd sim card for now if that's the only way.
Please if you know a way, help.
Thanks
My girlfriend owns one too. I've searched in a lot of places, but people said that installing something of the single SIM variants on a dual SIM one won't work. If someone knows how to make it work, please tell us.
*Bump*
I've searched a lot for a solution but I couldn't find any.
Would installing a different model's (N7505) rom work?
Would it even boot up?
It is a totally different phone
Duos variant is qualcomm based while other variants are exynos so no ROM other than stock will work for it for now
There is some hopeful trials to build cm12.1 ROM by Firelord but till the moment we are speaking there is nothing
Hope for the best
Best Regards

I had higher hopes.. According to PhoneArena the 750 variant is the one with Qualcomm and the duos (7502) is similar to 7505 processor wise.
Is that wrong?

See that page :
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_note_3_neo_duos-6015.php
Also i got build.prop which confirms this
Also all kernel sources from Samsung
Knowing that the device is qualcomm based gives me hope that it may get CM ROM
Anyway, We need some attention from more developers
Best Regards

I'm not sure developers will bother.. But I hope they will.
I don't understand the reason for this... Qualcomm is the most popular processor manufacturer of CPUs so it'd be easier to create a ROM or edit an existing one to work on this phone... I don't understand why the exynos ones are getting more attention.

According to https://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ MSM8228 board is used by Samsung G800H (Galaxy S5 mini) and N7502. Also google shows HTC Desire 816 Dual Sim based on the same board and looks like that's all. But these other devices already have custom roms.
Please build a ROM for sm n7502 dual sim variant
