This is SlimROM 7 for the Exynos3470 based Samsung Galaxy S5 mini (G800F/G800M/G800Y)

SlimRoms is a custom android operating system. Our main goal is to offer users a slimmed down yet feature rich alternative to other android operating systems.
The entire SlimTeam work together to bring you this tailor-made beauty straight from Android Open Source Project (AOSP) source code.
All of the sources can be publicly viewed through GitHub and you can stop by our public Gerrit to submit patches of any type.

Known Issues
- Camera problems per usual. (I may remove the stock cam next build)
- Let me know and I'll try to fix.

Notes
- TWRP and backups - While TWRP 3.0 will work fine on backups between 7.x ROMS if you are running 7.x and try to restore to a 6.x ROM it will fail to restore the data partition.If you have the need to do this you MUST use TWRP 2.8! (Thanks to Sunn76 for that info)
- No integrated root - use Magisk

I highly recommend a full backup before flashing this ROM.Again,I am not responsible if you lose any or all of your data!

Downloading, I wish youtube problem at 720p is resolved

Edit #1: The zoom in youtube videos continues, the "solution" I found is to see the video to the desired quality and when the error occurs, press the home button, open the multitasking and return to the video, this corrects the problem, in some Cases zoom back

PS: I speak Spanish, so I used the google translator

This issue I believe has been fixed by hennymcc. It should be fine in the next build.

In ground zero roms I downloaded the validus build, which also contains the same error, thanks a lot for the effort, the rom works excellent, if I find any bug I will report it, thank you for your excellent work

Yeah, hennymcc just made a few commits to the device tree some hours ago that will hopefully solve the YouTube zoom problem.
And you're welcome. Please do post any findings you may have. Thanks!

Thanks a lot for your great ROMs! I'll try this one right away because I always considered slim to be one of the smoothest, fastest ROMs out there. The only reason I didn't use it, is because there wasn't a Nougat version, but now there is! Thank you so much!

EDIT: After a few minutes of testing, I've found a few minor bugs. One of them is quite annoying, the other two can be ignored in my opinion.

1. When enabling and disabling the navigation bar multiple times in a row very quickly, SystemUI crashes. It happened by accident, but it was quite weird. (however it doesn't really matter because 'normal' people would never experience this)

2. When opening additional settings in the settings menu, SlimSettings crashes.

3. I'm not really sure if this is a bug, or if this is intentional, but the battery percentage in the status bar has changed into a tilde. So instead of 4%, the status bar now says 4~, which seems strange.

Yeah...
1. I don't really know, but like you said probably not something most will experience.
2. This is a known issue. It will be fixed ( probably removed) in the next build.
3. This is strange. I also don't know about this. I'll look into it though.
Thanks for the feedback!

For some reason, I can't turn the phone on by pressing the home button, only with the power button

Yes, the home button doesn't wake the device. I don't really think this is a bug. I personally do not like it. Although I know some will. It should be a fairly easy fix for the next build.

I tried installing the viper4android, but it asks me to install the drivers always, even with the nougat fix, I'm not sure that it could be failing, maybe another sound mod will work, with the ums enabler (mass storage) asks me to change the kernel to permissive , Which seems strange to me because the default comes like this, maybe that's why I can not install the viper4android

#edit 1:
I have a question, the next updates have OTA support or will it be necessary to flash manually?

I haven't messed with Viper4Android on any nougat ROMS, so I can't really help there, sorry. At some point I will though.

I may look into implementing OTA for this ROM. I'm not sure at this point. It just depends on a few things. Either way, for sure the next update will need to be manually flashed.

Thanks for the answers, actually OTA is not so important to me, what I need is youtube, but anyway thank you very much for all your work, in truth keep the device alive

 

[no_means_no]

I'm very happy to see a slim Version of Nougat for the g800f. I'll just have to wait till wake up via home button is working. This is a must for me.

Make sure you go to terminal and type: getenforce
If it said enforcing you have to type: setenforce 0
Then check with getenforce again and see if it says permissive now.

3. This is strange. I also don't know about this. I'll look into it though.

The battery percentage is a normal percentage again now. Maybe that's because I rebooted my phone yesterday but it seems to work now!

Is there a way to turn off button illumination in Slim7 without installing a night mode app? In my opinion night mode apps have some disadvantages so I'd prefer a different way.

Not that I'm aware of at this point.

About the battery percentage 'bug': The status bar only shows a tilde (~) when the device is charging!

Danke für diese tolle Rom. Vielen, vielen Dank.
