Samsung says memory limitations. hmm, why a3 2015 has lollipop ? A3 HAS 1GB RAM. 2 cores not has problems to run lollipop.
Why I'm say worse ? Samsung's all devices, only S4 mini and s3 neo has Snapgragon 400. but s3 neo has 720p display, s4 mini has 540p display.
Yea, great developer edit s3 neo lollipop port rom to had compatible qHD display. but s3 neo has cortex a7, s4 mini has krait 300
But I don't know who is succesfully ported 5.1 to s3 neo. note 3 neo has 720p but has exynos ???
Next device is A3 2015 but it has 64-bit cpu. blablabla...
Possible ?

i'm unable to understand devs here in s4 mini section , they dont even try , and not even respond when its about it !
there must be a way to do it , do you know any turo on how to port lollipop to kitkat devices ?
Maybe the only way to do that will be creating from cm sources with an existing ROM with another skin. Time ago, when I got my galaxy ace I tried a ROM that was a jellybean port, that was far from TW 2.X look and feel.

J2 is worse device than s4 mini. Than J2 has exynos 3. I don't know

the system of the Samsung TouchWiz and wonderful it would be really nice if by cm code could pull off a 6.0 tw must recreate a kernel using cm code and the operative part of a s5 32bit taking just enough like the Samsung app panel tiles the dialer contacts the settings panel the music player and the gallery would be fantastic removing the fingerprint sensor and all the other things that a stock s4 not has a beautiful rom would come and certainly turned better than KitKat well optimized with marshmallow

you can not take the base of s5 and developing an area compatible with our new cyanogen mod comes out when you do not take the google code and spread to most of the devices can not do the same with TouchWiz from a new kernel

Hello, i have to order a phone in the next hour to replace my S2. The S5 mini cost 100 more but maybe it's worth? I dunno..
Originally i'd like to get a dual sim phone, looks like S4 mini has such a version but hard to find and probably not much custom rom if any..

At the moment there's no custom Rom for s5 but maybe there will be some later and the s5 is faster.
But the stats aren't really better

of course s5 mini !!!!!!! ... basic reason is that its newer !! .. i wish i could have your chance :silly:
Go with the S4 Mini! It rocks! More value for money! Cheap. More mods. Better looking.
How aggressive is Knox on the S5 Mini?
Just remember, the S5 Mini has an Exynos chip, and Samsung does not have a good track record on releasing sources for those. So there might not be any custom AOSP based roms for it. It also lacks OpenGL 3 support, whatever that will mean for future Android versions.
There aren't any big differences from the S4 Mini to the S5 Mini other than the fingerprint and 16GB ROM.

Well....... Far more resolution is not actually that true since the S4 Mini uses a full RGB matrix and the S5 Mini the crappy pentile matrix. I take the S4 Minis display any day over the S5 Minis, even though the S4 Minis is a qHD. It's more pleasing to the eye and less pixilated!
Just like S4 Mini the S5 Mini too has some variants.
3G International - Uses exynos 3 chipset(3470) 4 X Cortex A7 @ 1.4GHz + Mali 400MP4 GPU - By far ugliest and creepiest chipset with no guarantee of kernel sources.
LTE International - May be the same exynos 3 chipset. If not then most likely snapdragon 400. Then just like I9195 this will be flooded with custom roms.
3G Dual Sim - Snapdragon 400 4 X Cortex A7 @ 1.4GHz + Adreno 305. Good chipset with a lot of support. But I think just like I9192 aosp roms will be very less for this S5 Mini.

Well of course you have a valid point as well.

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??

Hi guys
Iam Note 8.0 user
i don't know any things about developement or roms
I got a good idea
don't know if it's possible
We know samsung released mid end tablet called tab a8 with lollipop built in
I searched found the hardware is the same
s pen , 5 mp cam quadcore , 2gb ram
The wifi n5110 face wifi tab a8
the lte n5120 face lte tab a8
the 3g n5100 ? Can handle lte software ?
Can someone make it possible to install tab a8 official rom on note 8.0
Simple No!

Lot
Starting from lower system used storage
Multi users
Ultra power saving mode
Lollipop kitkat 5 (there are lot of apps support only lollipop, like fore example screen recording no root)
Ok.
FYI, I don't think my Tab A supports multiple users...
Sent from my SM-P355 using XDA Free mobile app
Good idea though. Have to go through and see how similar the specs are.
Seems like the main difference is the processor:
Galaxy Tab A8 has a
1.2 ghz quad core
Note 8 has
Chipset Exynos 4412 Quad
CPU Quad-core 1.6 GHz Cortex-A9
GPU Mali-400MP4
So why did the A8 get marshmallow when it's lower specced... why TF did they say the Note 8 was too weak to handle it?
Seems like the closest match to my
Samsung Galaxy Note 8 GT N5110
is the
Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8.0 SM-T350 (wifi only model - no stylus). List of firmware names..

Actually, I think the Galaxy Grand Prime from 2014 has the same hardware as the S4 Mini, they have the same camera, same resolution screen, same RAM and ROM and also same chipset....
Hi Devs and modders,
the S4 mini LTE (I9195) is still a very popular phone.
Is it possible to create a (modified) S8 rom to port it to the S4 mini to have a "S8 mini" ?
There are a lot of S4 mini user who would be happy to update their phones to a "S8 mini"
So is there are skilled dev/modder who could makes this dream of us S4 mini users come true?
Thanks in advance.
Tku12
I can do it. But since i traded my s4 mini with an galaxy s3 4g....
Hi!
I wanna help u, how can I contact u?
Any news about this? I am sure that a lot of s4 mini owners would love this rom.
I want this rom...
What features do you expect it to have and which version of Android? Was it just meant to port the style (UI) of the S8 on the latest stock Rom for the s4 mini LTE?!
I'm not a dev, but I might also be interested to have S8 mini rom. I just bought a Note 4 now and repaired the Touch of my S4 mini. Now it looks like new from the outside, only the software-inside is still looking ugly. It might be the first try of creating an own rom..... I'm ready I guess, gonna look later today on it. (Y)

:laugh:
seria genial tenerl ele stilo s8 en un s4 mini
So is anyone actually working on this?
I wanted 3 variant for i9190 too :angel:

It's very difficult as the last Samsung update is 4.4.4 so only you can add s8 themes , icons ,fonts etc

Apparently not... So sad... It would be best if it had same Android and features as S8, well some of them at least, no bloatware...
I dont think this will ever happen. you could install
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga.../rom-cyanogenmod-14-0-s4-mini-3g-lte-t3471761
Its Official lineageos Android 7.1.2 for our phone from arco68. His rom works very well. Use it since 6-7 months.
You could possible find install theme/launcher/icons to have look a like a galaxy s8 (mini). I as example use nova launcher and MIUI Icons (doesn't like the newer ones). And MIUI 6 Wallpapers.
It's without any bloatware. Android 4.4.4 from samsung has around 350? packages (around 90 I disabled). Lineage os around 150-190.

It's impossible to make an s8 rom because reasons.
We don't even have official 6.0 TOUCHWIZ, so yeah.
But is possible theme kitkat stock rom, like Hoplite or VROM
Please, anyone?
Don't know if possible but a S8 rom for s4 mini i9190 users with samsung features and fonts in the new android 8.0 would be incredibly brilliant. If it's someone who could make it, it would be awesome. Please, if you read me and know how to do it, make me happy. :fingers-crossed:

I really need this rom because i love the s8 features, I would love this rom to be android Lollipop 5 or Marshmallow 6...:good::good:
