You’d be surprised to see that the Samsung Galaxy S3 gets the Android 5.0 Lollipop ROM the device’s big brother Galaxy S3 does, but it’s a good news anyway. Gotta give a thumbs up to the NovaFusion team for building a Galaxy S3 mini Android 5.0 ROM this quick.

The Android Open Source Project 5.0 by NovaFusion has released a very early build of Android 5.0 Lollipop for the Galaxy S3 mini. As you’d expect, there isn’t much working on the ROM, except that it’s booting and you can get the Android 5.0 experience on the device.

The Galaxy S3 mini is never going to see the Android 5.0 Lollipop update officially from Samsung, so your hopes are all on the AOSP based ROMs like CM, PA and other similar ROMs. And until the big league custom ROM developers release an AOSP based Android 5.0 ROM for your Galaxy S3 mini, you can get a taste of the Android 5.0 goodness on your S3 mini with this AOSP 5.0 ROM.

All thanks to the NovaFusion team for beginning work on an AOSP based Android 5.0 ROM for the Galaxy S3 mini. The ROM is a work in progress at this time so we wouldn’t recommend you to install this if you use your device as a daily driver. Below is the list of things that aren’t working:

NOT WORKING (as of November 6, 2014):

  • RIL (phone/SMS/3G) doesn’t work [WIP]
  • audio (both speakers/headphones/microphone) doesn’t work at all
  • GPS/Glonass doesn’t work
  • this release doesn’t support f2fs yet, only ext4 filesystem – remember to wipe data/cache partitions as ext4 before flashing this ROM!
  • camera doesn’t work at all
  • missing part of OMXes implementation (so there’s no fully HW video acceleration)

The NovaFusion team should be able to fix the RIL (phone) soon, along with Camera and Audio. In case some issues remain, then your only hope would be CyanogenMod’s release of Android 5.0 based ROM, which they should be calling CM 12.

Anyway, let’s hit the downloads section and see how to install Android 5.0 on your Galaxy S3 mini.
