Samsung Galaxy S5 mini (SM-G800HQ) Firmware Overview
What is the latest SM-G800HQ firmware?
G800HXXS1CRJ2, released March 21, 2019 with Android 6.0.1. It is a security update on bootloader binary 1. The archive holds 6 official builds across 1 region (CSC). Each one is the full stock ROM (flash file) for Odin, not an OTA patch.
Is the Samsung Galaxy S5 mini still getting updates?
Most likely not: there has been no new firmware since March 2019, so Android 6.0.1 is the last version this model got. The final builds below are still the best choice for a clean reinstall.
