[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Oleggluk:
You have a very old version of TWRP
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
As Oleggluk says your TWRP version is old. Update it and try again. Good luck!

Do you guys have any idea why Slim-ROM isn´t compatible with Gapps? I always have the problem that the setup wizard stops after booting, the same occurs with the Gapps. But when I only install the slim ROM it works properly.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
You need to use newer gapps. Slim announced on their site a couple of months ago that older versions would cause problems.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Wheedman:
Can you lend me a hand there? I used the one from opengapps.org , Platform: ARM ; Android: 7.1 ; Variant: Pico

Maybe the Pico-version isn´t working?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well, that's the same as I use. I'm afraid I can't help much more than linking you a download page. Hopefully it'll work.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] jzak1083:
I have problems with back key, sometimes it does not work. After reboot it works for some time again good.

Any idea how is this possible?

EDIT: This appears only when I have SuperSU installed, also the backlight of the buttons does not work with SuperSU installed.

EDIT2: SuperSU and also the buttons are working fine when using Spookcity_Kernel-N_v4.0-1500.zip
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Yes,others have reported this issue with SuperSU. I have no idea why or of a workaround. My only suggestion is to ditch SuperSU and go with Magisk.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] jzak1083:
I wanted to use Magisk, but I'm getting error during installation - Magisk image mount failed... Which version of Magisk are you using?

Thanks.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I'm currently running another ROM,but a few weeks ago when I flashed this I used Magisk 13.2 with no issues. I don't really see why there would be issues with the latest version on this ROM,but who knows. Hope that helps some.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] ezquierdo:
Hi install first the last twrp via odin and next magisk 13.3 via twrp

I'm experiencing gapps bug or smth. I install rom and gapps but I can't get into home screen. It's popping up setup wizard stopped working. Could someone tell me which version (date realase) of gapps are you using and it is working fine?

Edit: I tried install lineage rom and I had same issue. Maybe is it due old twrp? I'm using 3.0.0.0
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
Yes, please try latest official TWRP 3.1.1-1. Find it in original development.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] jardo9:
Thank you it's working perfectly!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] m83b4:
Hey, Thanks for this great rom, I updated from Slim 6 and it is much smoother.

I followed the instruction from the latest posts, I updated twrp to 3.1.1-1, installed Magisk instead SuperSU and used pico Open Gapps, everything work fine. But for some reason I keep getting this Empty Dialog Box every few minutes, in home screen, browsing and in different apps.

[IMG="empy dialog box keeps popping up"]http://n31.org/Screenshot_20170826-220629.png[/IMG]

What seems to be causing the problem?

I think it was from the start, I mean even with clean install, but I'm not really sure.

Currently theres not much installed:

Ram Expander

Whatsapp

Waze

Gmail

Chrome

Notes

And thats it.

Also is there a way to make the bottom led light buttons behave like in the stock rom, I mean they turn on everytime I touch the screen which is annoying.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I have never seen or heard anyone mention anything about the empty dialog box. That's a very strange thing. Although you indeed don't have many apps installed,I would have to think one of those is causing it. Although it could also be slim launcher. Maybe try another home launcher (Nova etc) for a bit and see if that resolves it.

As far as the LED's there isn't an option within the ROM,but there is a solution to disable them via a script floating around within this thread. I'll post it if I find it.

Edit:

Found it

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] m83b4:
Hey, thanks for the fast reply, much appreciated.

I installed Nova Launcher From Play Store, used it for a while but the problem still persists :(

[IMG="nova launcher"]http://n31.org/Screenshot_20170826-231814.png[/IMG]

Apart from that everything runs/works fine, I guess i can live with that until the next update, then I'll do a fresh clean install, unless someone will figure out what cause this.

About that script, how do I run it? how do you create the file and where do you put it?

Thanks again.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
As far as the script,I have not used it,but believe it would/should go in your /system/etc/int.d folder. As mentioned in that post perhaps try init.d emulator. I have also never used this,but imagine you can select the script in that. Just a guess though.

Such a strange issue with the popup. I'm not sure I could live with that. So it's obviously not slim launcher...Hmm,I have never seen this one before. Maybe someone else has some ideas?? I am really at a loss with this one. Its so strange. Hope someone else can help you!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] m83b4:
Hey, yeah it was getting annoying, tried fresh install and it still occoured, tried another 7.1.2 Rom - XenonHD, still occurs.

I went back to your Slim 6 Rom which also works good and the problem doesn't occur. I installed it along with same Magisk version I used when installing Slim 7 Rom but different Gapps version, Now everything works great without any problems at all, so maybe the problem was with Gapps ?

Again thanks for the great roms !
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
You're most welcome. I enjoy being able to share with the community here.

Very bizarre that this happens on other ROMS as well. What happens if you only install the ROM,no GApps? I guess it could be GApps related. That's the best way to find out. I use pico as well though without issue ( I think I remember you saying that's what you used)
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] m83b4:
Hey, tried totally different roms, all with the same problem (the empty dialog box).

Tried to use different Gapps version (micro) still the same over clean install. The Slim6 is great but I want to use the newer versions (Nougat).

No one have any idea what could cause this even after fresh clean install?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Seriously bizarre issue. Especially with it occurring on multiple ROMS. I really have no idea. If you grab a log of this happening I will have a look though and see if anything jumps out at me.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] m83b4:
How to do so?

Just tried AICP 12.1 clean fresh install with no gapps install still happened.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Weird. The simplest way to get a log is going to be with an app. I recommended matlog. It needs root access,but you can just install it,run it,do something that causes this popup,then open matlog and pause it. From there you can save the log to a text file from within matlog. Then just share the text file here.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well,sadly there isn't anything there that explains your issue. The invalid gralloc errors are common. I'm at a loss really. I'll do a little research when I have a little time and see if I can come up with some idea.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
Maybe try a substratum theme with dark system notifications. I would do that to see if a dark background helps...if there is a white text.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Taxiback:
Every time I try to install this ROM it gets to the setup and the setup keeps force closing, tried lots of other ROMS and they all install as expected but I just cant get this one to work.

I've downloaded it twice but still no difference, any ideas?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] :
Yeah I've had some setup wizard issues as well but there's a way to skip it: Tap the top left corner and then tap all the other corners of the screen clockwise until you've tapped the top left corner again (so you've tapped every corner once, but the top left corner twice). If it doesn't work, you should try it again a few more times because it can be quite tricky. Good luck!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] fidoedidoe:
If anyone is interested in building this SlimRom7 from source, I've created a script that is designed to fully automate the process (starting from initial build or subsequent rebuild). None of this was possible without considerable help from spookcity138 and jimmy999x, all credit goes to them. The post can be found here: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s5-mini/general/guide-build-slim-rom-7-nougat-source-t3676449. Enjoy.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] ko_taka:
thanks fidoedidoe

what I would be interested is in a pack of samsung galaxy apps comaptible with nougat

like we have gapps nowadays

I think would be nice have samsung apps like (contacts, notes, mail, voice recorder, touch wiz

[although slim launcher is nice, only thing missing is a glass effect when showing all apps list or option to change color] ) -- specially contacts
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] fidoedidoe:
Although I can't qualify this I suspect most native Samsung Galaxy apps have dependencies on the touchwiz framework. I won't have time for this but you wish you could try to extract the apk's from the original rom 6.0.1 and sideload onto nougat to see what mileage you get. There should be plenty of info on how to extract apks from ROMs out there. Good luck!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Updated to v1.11. See main post for details.

Hello Spookcity,

after installing new version, i couldn't get wifi to work.

after reinstalling your Kernel 5.0 (1500) it works again
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Very strange. I did not have this problem and am not too sure why you did. Either way,I'm glad you got it working!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Updated to v1.14. This might be the last update for this ROM. I'm unsure right now. I really would like to just focus on Android O from now on. We shall see.

Enjoy!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] yetanothermist:
NOTE: See Update at bottom

Ahoi,

maybe I can get help here. Yesterday I wanted to update my cell (was on Slim 6 still *shame*) and I cannot get it to work with GApps. I saw the update today and tried again but without success.

I'm using OpenGapps but always get into a loop of "Setup Wizard keeps stopping". Though It is not only the case with your ROM but with every single 7.1 ROM I tried (well, many come from you) and it is always the exact same result: Without GApps it works with it doesn't.

I also posted in the OpenGApps Thread but thought because you know the device you could have an Idea.

Thanks for all your effort you put into the ROMs to keep my device up-to-date :)

Update:

The fault was an older version of TWRP. After Updating from 3.0.0 to 3.1.1 it now works.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I'm glad you got it sorted and thanks for posting the fix. I'm sure it will help others.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Yes thanks, had the same problem and could solve this......... But need 2 try`s because I had forgotten the wipe before flashing.

[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] chancenvergeber:
Android O for the S5 Mini? Or do you plan to develop for another phone?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Yeah,still using the mini and plan to try to build some Android O ROMS when I have some time. As far as Slim 8...It is not buildable right now due to them not updating certain repositories. I will keep my eye out though and try to build whenever they get things sorted.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Hi,

I have the ROM since a week now. At first all runs good, but since two days I have sometimes a message on screan ( sim wählen) in a white field,

when I wake up the phone from sleeping.....

Is this a known problem?

AND....... sometimes the phone has incredible akku drowning, it holds only half day....

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
OK, "Sim wählen" means "choose sim card". Do you use two sim cards,?

About battery: do you use your camera often and do you have connection problems with camera (restart phone to use it again)?
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Pretty much what Pat750 said. There is a line in the build.prop that has been know to cause this SIM issue for very few. The line is "persist.radio.apm_sim_not_pwdn=1"

You can try to delete this line and see if the sim detection messages stop.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Thanks to you both for answering.

At first, no I dont have two simcards. Probs with camera I had also not to the moment.

I started the phone a few times, the accu power was ok for the last two days. Also the sim problem was not visible since new starting.

How can I delete this line in phone software??? No experiences in this things :(

Bommel

Edit; ****...... now it was here again.....
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
In order to delete the build.prop line you need root and any root file manager. Open the file manager. Navigate to /system and open the build.prop as a text file. Locate that one specific line and delete it. Then reboot your phone. My guess is that's what is causing this.

As long as you only delete that line there should be no issues,but I'm still going to say to backup anything important.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Thank you very much!!!

I found a nice file manager in store with superuser option. I found the line and deleted it, saved and started new.........

Hope it works now for the future.

Thanks Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
You're most welcome. I am pretty sure this should solve the SIM popup. Hope so!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Moin moin, da bin ich wieder....... :(

Nachdem ich einen Tag etwa Ruhe hatte, habe ich heut die Camera benutzt, ging alles glatt, also kein Cam-Absturz oder so,

2-3 Bilder gemacht dann Camera beendet..........

Kurze Zeit später war der SIM-Fehler wieder da, ca. 3 oder 4 mal hatte ich das Feld auf dem Screan, immer wenn ich aus dem Standby

heraus kam, einmal während dem Spielen eines Spieles.........

After taking some Pics with the Cam I had the SIM-problem again........ Yesterday I dont use the camera and all was fine........

Maybe it is a camera fail, I remember somebody wrote this in this forum....

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
That's very strange. There is an issue with the camera where it sometimes will start to drain your battery very fast (mediaserver) I highly doubt the SIM issue is at all related. I've known maybe 3 people who were getting this sim popup problem on different ROMS and removing that build.prop line solved it everytime. I'm at a loss as to why you continue to have this problem. I'll think some and get back to you if I come up with anything useful.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Ok, thank you......

I have another strange problem and maybe this is helpfull for you and your thinking?!

I have this Magisk V14. - prog at my phone for rooting this.

Now I have a lot of times a message in my upper line, that there is a new version of the Magisk Manager. BUT...... if I touch

this for loading the new version....... nothing happens. Few hours later I have the same message in upper line.

AND...... once more: If I have a call for a few minutes....... sometimes I hear a PEEP..... and the call is disconnected, my net provider

is gone for a few seconds and than its back and I can dial my call back.

Very nerving :(

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well,I've had the Magisk issue as well on a couple of ROMS,so I don't think it's ROM specific. I always just disable the update check in Magisk. That will solve that. You can always just download newer versions manually and install.

I have never experienced the call issue so I don't really know what to say about that. Maybe someone else has a clue.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
I have found the problem with Magisk. In the options you can set an ankle (?), that you can load packages exept the main things,

I did it and all works.

But the sim prob still there after that.

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Thanks for the info about Magisk. It will be helpful. About the sim issue,I am at a loss really. If you are positive that you deleted that line in the build.prop then I can't really think of another reason unless it is just the actual SIM card. I've only ever heard a few people experience this issue on our device and that build.prop line was always the cause.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
ok, thanks for the answer. I`m always fascinated that people know, that problems are because a simple line in software ;)

I have a new sim contract in about 2 weeks, maybe the problem is away after that change....... we will see.

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] amine donald:
Ok
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
There are some minor things in this ROM I do not like..... and the SIM Popups..........

How about this one: AEX-5.0-ALPHA ???

When is there a stable version of this one, without important bugs.....???

I wish, I could find a ROM that works over all and have no more wasted time with always new clean flashs and

always do all my apps load from the store and make all new after some weeks of testing........ :laugh::laugh::laugh:

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
I can understand. The SIM popup would be very bothersome. This is not a ROM specific issue though. No one else has reported it and I've used this ROM for long periods and have never had this.

As far as other ROMS, AEX 5.0 I've been using for a week. I have no problems with it,but it is indeed still in alpha. It'll probably be awhile still until it is considered "stable" I can just say that AEX 4.6 is my favorite nougat ROM. Maybe give that a try.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Ok, have you a link for this 4.6 ?

What I wanna say...... I respect your great work!!!! BUT...... its very frustrading, always do few hours of work, make everything new

and after a few days all was for nothing.....

With all my games and apps I beginn always as a novice ;) All results are gone and I have to start again, because I want to start always

with a clean flash :cool:

The 5.0 sounds good for me, the video fail could I fix with another cam-app?

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Yeah,understood. I just personally have never had any real issues with most of the ROMS for our device.

The video recoding error is not going to be fixed by another cam app I don't believe. It is an issue for a lot of devices right now running Android 8..Link to AEX 4.6

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=71442562

Hope that'll work our for you!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
One more question:

Can I flash the 4.6 and later update to 5.0 without data missing?

Or is it better to wait for 5.0 beta or stable. I dont wanna do all that **** twice :o

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Well,again its a little difficult as I have been using AEX 5.0 for over a week without issues (except the video recording) Your results may vary. You would need to do a full wipe if going from AEX 4.6 TO 5.0 though,so perhaps it is just best to try that out and hopefully it will work out for you until AEX 5.0 is a bit further along.
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] Pat750:
Maybe you should take a look at the app Titanium Backup, needs root but helps restoring user apps and games. It needs a little reading though...not that easy at first start...
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
Ok, thanks. I know this app, but I had always not perfect results with it. Clean flash is the best way to prevent troubles later ;)

Bommel
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] newstarter:
I jumped to 4.6 ROM.

After 2 days I have to say...... all runs good, no bugs, a graet ROM.

I have just installed and all google services/apps close unexpectedly: gmail, calendar, sycn, services framework, etc, etc, etc. I have installed various time, including wiping all cache, data, system, and including internal stroage. Once I roll back to my previously installed version 0.24 everything is fine. I also tried installing latest opengapps in case that was it and nothing. Phone is non-functional unless I roll back, any ideas?

Lastly, I tried to find 1.15 to see if I can give that a shot, but no luck... any links available?

Thanks for the great ROM looking forward to getting up to a recent version!
[Galaxy S5 Mini Android Development] spookcity138:
Your problem is related to your TWRP version and not the ROM. Install the latest TWRP and you'll be good to go.

Also,do make sure you use a very recent version of GApps otherwise this will cause issues as well.

Ah yes, my GF is using my old mini and she complained about battery drain. I believe it was the same build as you mentioned.
