Works really good to be a first launch. i'm having problems with the fingerprint scanner, sometimes don't work.
I installed the opencamera app to supply the error behaviour of the official camera app.
First day of use and very happy!
Thanks very much for the effort guys!

Yeah, I had "Video Recording Failed" in CM 13, I have not flashed this ROM yet but the Snapchat bug is the only thing stopping me... Otherwise this ROM would be awesome! Hopefully they manage to fix it!
Well, I'm having others problems.
Skype video don't appear to be working, same as Whatsapp video calls.
When you plug the phone to charge, phone totally off, the battery icon appear and don't show the charge status, you can turn on the phone. You need to remove the battery to turn it on.
You can simulate a battery pull by holding vol down along with the power buttonWell, I'm having others problems.

so i'm not new to these forums but i normally don't react to posts on XDA but i would like to share a few bugs
-like everyone said: snapchat doesn't work
-fingerprintscanner does not react sometimes but this also occured on CM 13 an stock ROM.
- battery drains very fast (something that other ROM's like CM13 also had).
Btw, nice work

CyanogenMod is discontinued.
This ROM is continued as a LineageOS ROM.
Check the G800F LineageOS ROM for more info.
This is a CyanogenMod 14.1 ROM for the Exynos3470 based Samsung Galaxy S5 mini (G800F/G800M/G800Y).
DO NOT USE IT FOR G800H OR YOU WILL BRICK YOUR DEVICE
Although G800F and G800H share the same name they are not related in terms of hardware due to the different SoCs used (Exynos vs. Snapdragon).
Hence please do not ask for support or ROMs for the G800H.
Important note: It is possible that flashing this ROM can cause efs partition issues. Therefore it is strongly recommended to make a backup of your efs partition before flashing this ROM. This can be done via TWRP.
Working features
- HW accelerated GUI
- Camera (pictures+video: Back+Front) (switching between camera and video-recording might crash the camera-app)
- MTP storage
- Flash Light
- Bluetooth (A2DP, HFP, HID)
- IR
- Sound
- SMS
- Initiate and receive calls (the first ingoing call seems to have no sound)
- Wifi
- Mobile Data
- USB-OTG (Keyboard, Mouse, USB-Audio, Mass-Storage)
- NFC
- Hardware sensors (Orientation, Compass, Proximity, Acceleration, Hall sensor, Step counter)
- Light sensor (needed for auto-brightness)
- Pulse sensor (preliminary and very inaccurate. Works with Apps like Kardiograph)
- SD-Card as internal storage (new Android M feature)
- GPS
- Fingerprint scanner
Non-working features:
- SELinux
Known issues:
Before you start:
- Backup your data, like call history, contacts, sms, WhatsApp messages, favourite app settings that are on internal and external sd (by using Titanium Backup or other apps available on PlayStore). At least all internal data will be lost in any case. If you have bad luck you might also loose data from your external sd card.
Download:
- Odin3-v3.07 (it is contained in CF-Auto-Root)
- TWRP 3.0.0 recovery image [25/03/2016] (AndroidFileHost Mirror)
- CM 14.1 ROM for G800F/M/Y (Android File Host)
- Google Apps (contains Google Play, ...) for Android 7.1. The following is recommended:
- Open GApps Project, Platform:ARM, Android:7.1, Variant: whatever you prefer (e.g. "mini" or "nano")
Install recovery:
- Reboot your device into Odin mode: turn off your device, then press Volume-Down + Home + Power button at the same time and release them.
- Confirm the following warning message with the Volume-Up button.
- Connect your device to your PC via USB
- Make sure the device driver's are installed on your PC
- Start Odin
- In Odin select PDA and select the recovery image (recovery.tar.md5)
- Check that only "Auto Reboot" and "F. Reset Time" is set
- Click on "Start": the kernel image should be flashed now and the device should reboot afterwards. By flashing the recovery, your warranty will be void.
- After the recovery flashing process was successful, power of your device. If not restart into Download mode and flash again or flash the stock rom.
Before you flash:
- You need the latest TWRP recovery (see above). Otherwise TWRP might not be able to flash the ROM. This is because TWRP checks now if the device is "supported".
- Wipe the device to avoid problems with remaining files from the old installation (see instructions below). This also applies if you already installed an older version of CM 14.1.
Flash CyanogenMod:
- Reboot into recovery mode (Press Volume-Up + Home + Power button)
- If you come from a stock ROM, this is your opportunity to make a Backup of your phone(Backup, then select Boot, System, Data, then swipe to backup). Note that the recovery might fail to restore the backup when you want to go back to the stock ROM (for me it got stuck after a restore during boot. But the backup was made with a different version of TWRP, so it might work in general) - simply do not expect too much of it at the moment.
- If you haven't copied the installation files yet, you can now copy the GApps and CyanogenMod zip to your internal sd or external sd (be careful not to put the files into the data directory of the internal sd card as this will be deleted in the next step). Be sure that MTP is enabled (inside Mounts, click on Enable MTP), then, from your pc, copy the files. If MTP does not work from recovery, try it directly from Android or remove the external sd card from the phone and put it into your PC.
- Wipe Dalvik Cache, Cache, System and Data (inside Wipe -> Advanced Wipe). Do not report problems if you did not wipe those partitions as the problems are most probably related to this!
- Install the CM ROM zip-package
- Install the GApps zip-package
How to root:
No SuperSu is needed as CyanogenMod already comes with integrated root support. Root access is disabled by default.
You normally do not need root access. If you want to activate root access for apps, do the following:
- Open the Settings menu, select "About Phone"
- Tap on the "Build number" entry seven times. You should be notified, that the developer settings are now active.
- Open the Settings menu, select "Developer options". Enable root access by selecting "Apps" in the "Root-Access" setting.
In case you want to go back to the stock ROM:
- lf you do not have the latest ROM for the G800F you can download it from SamMobile
- Reboot your phone into Odin mode
- Open Odin on your PC and connect your smartphone with your PC via USB
- If you have a zip-file unzip it so that you have a .tar.md5 file
- In Odin click on the PDA button and select the .tar.md5 file. Then press "Start".
- Normally the stock rom fails to boot as the data from CM is still on the data partition. So after flashing the stock rom, reboot into recovery mode (it looks a bit different now). First wipe the data partition, then wipe the cache.
- Reboot

Developers welcome
- At the moment the G800F/M/Y specific port of this ROM is only done by two persons (CTXz and hennymcc). Although Unjustified Dev also works on this ROM he does not own an Galaxy S5 Mini but a Galaxy Light which has a similar base but is different when it comes to camera, nfc and other components (maybe even slightly when it comes to audio and radio).
- Help from other developers is always welcome. See the bug/feature section and this thread to see what is missing. Just give some short info (here in this thread or PM) that you want to work on some issue or feature so that work can be synchronized. Maybe there are also other devs that want to work with you on the same issue.
- Knowledge in how the kernel works and good programming skills in C, C++ and Java would be nice but not necessary for all problems. At least you should be able to build the ROM and test your changes yourself but you do not need experience in porting ROMs.
Thanks to CTXz, Psyafter, spookcity138 and ayke for working on this ROM.

Version Information
Status: Testing
Created 2016-11-07
Last Updated 2017-02-0119I already have a working LineageOS build. Last weekend LineageOS seemed a little bit unfinished. Seems they are finished now with the conversion to LineageOS.
The last weeks I was working on the integration of the stock MM libs. The stock radio/audio libs did not work correctly but now it seems to be fixed. The first LineageOS build will probably be a 13.0 build. When the robotic voice issue is fixed I will release a 14.1 build.
Still the graphic drivers (and also camera) libs from MM do not work yet and need some work.
The 13.0 build might be released next weekend but that depends on how much time I have to work on this - might also be two or three weeks.
In general supporting a (proprietary) Exynos based device like the G800F takes much more time than a (more open) Snapdragon based devices. This is also true for the officially supported S6 (zeroLTE) and the non-official S7.19LineageOS
Here is a first LineageOS 14.1 build:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298928045
I did not have time to test this build so far - I just updated to the newest lineageOS, so hopefully there should not be breaking changes. I will have have time to test it this evening the earliest.
The installation procedure is the same as with CM. Note that root is not available by default. You have to install addonsu-arm-signed.zip from
https://download.lineageos.org/extras
Features:
* Migration to LineageOS
* Robotic voice fixed
* First call fixed
There will be a new forum for LineageOS later. There won't be a migration build.
