At first find out if you have the LTE or the 3G version than:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2364980, before you flash the root kit do a nandroid backup. Than search for a Android L Rom for your device, gapps and if you want to maybe f4k's custom kernel. And than do a clean install.

I9195 is S4 Mini LTE International
I9190 is S4 Mini 3G International
I9192 is S4 Mini Duos International.
You have S4 Mini I9195 (Also called " serranoltexx ")
Check this youtube channel of our fellow I9195 user @Mitko
https://www.youtube.com/user/s4miniarchive/videos
Look for videos on how to flash custom recovery and then lollipop ROM. Procedure is same for any ROM. Make sure the rom is meant for I9195(serranoltexx)

Are there any KitKat ROMs for the 9192 variant of the S4 Mini. All the KK ROMs I can see are for the 9190 or 9195.
Planning on getting a 9192 this weekend.

Because of the dual radio, porting ROM for the GT-9192 has its difficulties. You either need to wait for the official release for Samsung or use ODION and flash another region's KK ROM. Note this will trigg Knox. You need to do more research on that before you getting the phone.
So far no kk for us, we'll have to wait for stock
I understand. Any update ? Maybe that is the reason why there are a few roms for our device. Hope we will get kitkat soon and developers will rebuild their roms for our devices. Thanks !
Now - we have CM11

there is also a kitkat 4.4.4 with thousands of compilations, not understand exactly what the best, some lower older versions and do not exhibit the same bugs of others, it seems a rather matter of luck ... But all are not official, I believe that will not leave even reviewed by the official forum, only the good guys who make the effort,'re below the link of 4.4.4, if anyone knows which one is the most stable.

:laugh: That question was asked in February, more than 6 months ago when there was no KK ROMs for 9192. :laugh:
Its been a long time after that and there are quite a few KK ROMs for the 9192 now.
Right now am using the Carbon KitKat ROM (4.4.4) [link in my signature]
Thanks anyway for the reply :good:

Thanks for your reply...
Sad to read this!
I have a i9192 and I just would like to have android 4.4.x on my device, but the original made by Samsung.
The CM variant has several bugs and personally I don't like the stock android appearance.

Just wait then
Sooner or later Samsung will update I9192 to KitKat
They did not finish with LTE variant, only 2 countries + Vodafone carrier did update to KK

Sadly no Samsung does not "confirm" or "infirm" anything . But we should wait and see
Well if u consider an answer from a Samsung rep a confirmation then yes . I asked 1 month ago on samsung chat and he replied that yes it is planned but he does not have a timeframe ( standard answer )
So is it possible to install i9195 stock firmware to i9190? Odin gives error.

You will BRICK your phone if you try that.
Hey guys, I'm brazilian; so, sorry for my really bad english...
I have a Galaxy S4 Mini Duos (I9192). Models I9190, I9192 and I9195 have the same chipset (MSM8930AB). I already tried to install a I9195 ROM and I can't get RIL working (as expected). But I think it's possible to get this working. What modifications I need to do in the ROM to get it working?
I know that are modifications in framework and kernel modules. But how can I do this? Even if only SIM1 works...
Hi
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini i9195 and i'm curious is it possible to flash a phone without battery over Flash Tool ?
I am using MediaTek SP Flash Tool v.5.1728.00 and i was flashed my other phone Huawei Y360-U61 without battery, but i can't find any stock ROM for gt-i9195.
Any advice will be good.
Thanks in advance.

S4 mini does not have media tek chipset so that tool will not work. You need Odin or Kies (for Widows PC'S).
Edit: you can get a stock ROM from

Have you read this FAQ?

You need odin and corresponing rom. I found newest through search with google. I have an european model and could upload it for you to my gdrive account. Its Android 4.4.4 from Debitel (Unbranded). Alernativly you could install lineage os 14.1 from arco68. Its newest android 7.1.2 updated weekly. Works very well.

I have seen you are from croatia, so ideally you find a rom thats for croatia. On sammobile you find just 4.4.2. I have a french (reimport) GT-I9195 and after flashing of german (because of releasing roms much earlier in germany) I was able to change but not anymore back to french. Don't know why, but I can live with them. After flashing I have to go to samsung recovery and Iam not sure what I have exactly done. I have since 8 months lineage os. I think it was enough to go to recovery mode and in log you see thats the recovery mode changes some parameters and the phone works again. Before wlan does not worked for me. Alternativly you could try -> Delete cache -> Factory Reset. But Iam sure this was not necessary.
