Hi all,

Thanks

Me too. I’m interested as well.

That would be great!

I’m currently using a non-official ROM found on XDA: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5-mini/development/unofficial-xenonhd-7-1-t3604837

Here’s the entry point for all S5 mini ROMs on XDA: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5-mini/development

There seems to be mostly (only?) unofficial ROMs… hence no or little updates. Would be great to see a /e/ ROM here!

Hi,

Also interested for a S5 mini build. Although I won’t be any help on the specs, I’m new to the whole thing, sorry…

i made an unofficial build that i posted in this topic: [UNOFFICIAL BUILD] Unofficial Pi/e/ Community Build for Samsung Galaxy S5 mini - kminilte (G800F/G800M/G800Y). i did not test the build !

+1 small but quite powerful phone (if you consider its age)

Chimpthepimp was so nice to make an unofficial build. At first I had bad luck and bought a defective phone but the 2nd one works w/o problems:

It would be really nice getting this phone official supported!

Thx.

Thanks to Chimpthepimp for the unofficial pie/e/build for Galaxy S5 mini. I’m just testing this out and I’m actually happy everything works as it should. I have been running the S5 mini with the Lineage ROM’s from Spookcity for a long time. Spookcity publishes an up-to-date version every month. Question: Do you plan updates at some point, or is there a chance to include the S5 mini in the official list due to updates?

Thank you

Chimpthepimp · August 16, 2020, 8:34am

Glad you like it i will update eventually, could be that i find time next week…

Arthuro · August 16, 2020, 2:39pm

Thanks for the offer but there is no hurry! It was just a matter of whether I see a future for myself and /e/ Os and can continue to try it out. By the way, I also registered in the German-language forum and I think I have already seen you there.

Chimpthepimp · August 16, 2020, 2:53pm

That could be very well

piero · December 7, 2020, 9:06pm

I am one more ( s5mini G800F kminilte ) user…For official support !
as for the s4mini, thanks again @Chimpthepimp !

mobifoss · February 3, 2021, 10:17am

+1 for S5 Mini.

I’ve an old S5 Mini that i want to use with /e/ os.

piero · February 3, 2021, 7:32pm

You can use /e/ on your s5mini, as i do with the excellent unofficial Pie version, but with security patch from May 2020, and no promises of update.
Awaiting it will be officially supported…

Hi, I tested this version. Unfortunately, GPS does not work. Does anyone have a solution for this problem?
