There seems to be no official LineageOS support for the Galaxy S4 Mini (GT-I9195 - serranoltexx) any longer. The according download pages have been removed from lineageos.org, so that one cannot even download the last official version.
Does anybody know whether these versions are available somewhere else?
What about the versions on cyanogenmods.org?
Is that site reputable?
Can the versions on this site be used to upgrade a device that has an an official version from lineageos.org installed?
So far, on lineageos.org there was only version 14.x available, cyanogenmods.org also provides versions 15 and 16. Would you recommend these versions? Can one keep settings and user data when upgrading from version 14 to 15 or 16?
Thanks in advance!
I have the same question.

Hello,
I tried to search "cyanogenmod" in this forum but the search engine crashed repeatedly. So let me post my question here.
I plan to purchase the Samsung Galaxy note 10.1 2014 (SM-P600) for mainly hand writing notes purpose. I also would like to install cyanogenmod (even if it voids the warranty),
but although this device is within the officialy supported device list, there is still no stable release for it, just nightly ones.
Within the developer section of this forum, I saw several cyanogenmod threads where some unofficial roms are proposed. So my question is : which cyanogenmod rom to install ? preferably the most stable one and with a working S-pen.
I would be grateful to one developer to lead me towards a working rom for this device.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards

Flash the unofficial release. Official CM doesn't have proper device support and never will. Also, don't upgrade the stock rom to Lollipop in order to keep the KitKat bootloader. The Lollipop bootloader causes CM not to play well with the s-pen.

Actually cyanogenmod changed their minds and just updated to our new repos just a few hours ago so you should be able to grab the next official build of CM13 when it gets released.
Hello,
When will the LineageOS ROM be available officialy for mondrianwifi (Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4) to download ?
Thanks a lot,
A patient user
Looks like the build failed 5 days ago. Perhaps at the next weekly go around it will build.
https://jenkins.lineageos.org/job/android/609/
10 days after the last try to build, nothing new. I hope when it is available, the experimental build for migration from CM will still be available ...

Sorry to necro an old thread, but I finally got around to putting Lineage on my Tab Pro and was wondering if there was going to be a v14 for it? Just curious... 13 is certainly fine compared to the junk that came on it hah.
Sammie SM T320.,..
I was wondering about to stalled downloads for about a month so far
As of March 14 2018 it has been over a month
In addition I am wondering whether 14 0r 15 is in the future for Sammie sm t320?
Can I find a list somewhere that tells how much internal and RAM memory each version of Lineage OS needs?
And, I guess older versions often need less memory than newer versions?
I am thinking about to install lineage OS 14 on a Samsung Galaxy S4 mini.
I have found out that there is a Lineage OS 14 version for this phone.
But, can I find 13 or 12? If so, do the need less memory? Would it be better to install a older version?
And, how stable is lineage OS 14 for this phone?
And will Samsung Galaxy S4 mini works as a USB host with Lineage OS 14 installed?
For s4 mini specific information please go to device sub forum.
Here some general considerations: People often say old devices are too weak for modern android versions. I think this is a legend promoted by device markers for not providing updates. Early users of new versions often confirm that legend. But they compare stable old versions with unstable new versions. Nougat is OK now.
Regarding storages: main difference between nougat ROMs is preinstalled apps. They get even bigger by installing gapps. MicroG is a resource friendly (and privacy oriented) replacement for some gapps features.

Official LOS14 running fine on my S4 Mini & very stable (though dialer has crashed a couple of times when answering a call but I am the only person who seems to have this… maybe due to to fact I used the migration tool for moving from unofficial LOS14 to official LOS14 to move from CM13 to LOS14, so I can't complain) Install TWRP fromS4 mini neozone thread & update modem also if available for your S4 Mini version.
Ok, thanks.
But it would also be nice to know how much memory lineage OS need. It would be better to find a smaller phone than the samsung galaxy s4 mini, but how do I know if I can install lineage on it?
On gsmarena.com I can find alot of information about all phones, so I can see how much internal and ram memory all phones have.
Yes. It is not easy to find a small phone with good lineage support. It's not like Linux for PCs, where ram and disk space are the limiting factors. For custom android you need someone to build a ROM or do it yourself. S3 mini or moto e are OK.
Hi,
I'm looking for a device close to Galaxy A5 size and performances which I can install Microg-LineageOS.
Samsung is not good since firmware upgrades of 2018, can't go back to nougat with my Galaxy A5 SM-A520F, so stuck without MicroG and LineageOS 16.0 beta.
Any recommended device wich is not PITA to install LineageOS-MicroG please?
Or any workaround to downgrade my SM-A520F to Nougat ? (backups, tricks, anything apart Odin that is not working because of the new firmwares)
Thanks
Can I buy a Nexus 5 with any stock ROM ? Seems the good specs
Hi all,
I am the old owner of this device and was wondering to which latest possible Android version can I update it. Even unofficially supported ofc. Currently running 6.1.
Any helper links are welcome.

Hi, I updated my Tab S T-800 with Resurrection Remix based on 14.1 and it works really great.
Tried LOS15.1 too, but wasn't stable.

Good Luck
Guys, I have Samsung Galaxy TAB S (SM T805) if I update it to a newer version will it be faster?
Or if I root the tablet?

Newer firmware doesn't necessarily make the device faster. There isn't much you can do about a 9 yr old device.
Since the T800/T805 are not Treble compliant, the only way to run newer firmware is via custom ROMs, although I doubt development on devices this old gets much attention.
So what I understand is there is not much to do with the tablet to make it a little bit faster.
What about root or that is a different matter?

Root is a different matter. In most cases, you can flash the Magisk app through TWRP, and Magisk will automatically detect the right way to root your device. If TWRP is not available, you'll need to patch the AP firmware file in Magisk, then flash to your device with Odin.

Would you be able to suggest which old tablets could make sense to flash semi-current roms onto? I tried to bring back some old device to reuse for home assistant display, but it's too old... Been thinking about these samsungs, but from this thread it's also a bit too old.

I don't have any suggestions, sorry. I have a Galaxy Tab A 8.0 (T290) at home that I'm running an AOSP GSI on, but those were released in 2018.

imho it's correct that a custom ROM doesn't necessarily make old devices faster, but I experienced it such that at least they don't get slower (except I9195).
Recently I was allowed to support development of Android 19=LOS 20 for my T325 and it runs like hell.
P600 and P900 on LOS14, T810 on LOS19 all using daily in different rooms.
I9195 on LOS18 (that is really laggy) N910F on LOS18 as backup devices.
