Samsung Galaxy S5 G900H is one of the most neglected phones in a flagship range of phones! And the reason? Because of having an Exynos processor. Why aren't developers not developing no AOSP based custom ROMs for G900H? The source code is available online, and someone should at least take the initiative. If I knew how to do develop a ROM from scratch or If someone could teach me, I would have done it. But that is not the case. Are there people who have the skills to do the impossible? How do they make an AOSP ROM compatible for a device?
Well we can start a bounty but to be honest i'm going to get rid of my g900h as soon as the new Nexus comes out.

That is so true.. I find that all development happens for all the other major phones except the g900h.. and I feel so left out of the whole loop... *sigh*
Wait for some days. it is coming

I wanted to raise awareness.. This is because, the G900H is a very common variant in Asian, African and South American countries but has few developers for it..

MeTal-01 is working on Cm 12 for g900h
Here's the link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/cm12-s5-sm-g900h-t3105920
Github repo link for G900H : https://github.com/k2wl/android_device_samsung_k3g
Guys wait for it we are working on CM12.1 for Samsung Galaxy S5 Exynos along with @k2wl Its not easy to develop CM for Exynos due lot of limitation on hardware sources and many other changes are required. In short making cm12 for Exynos based devices take time hence you have to wait for it. we are developing cm12 just have patience, exynos is not has friendly has qcom.
Please be patient , we will update here our progress whenever we fix anything
Cheers!

Ya sure its still work in progress the major issue is
1) Kernel Sources are KK based ( So we have to make it compatible with Lollipop , just takes sometime )
2) Adapting Sources to Snap 615 SOC (new to samsung)
Once CM boots i will make a thread here with all and latest updates

I may be wrong, but it looks like both of CM13 developers are really don't like ZE550KL/500KL/500KG users for some reason. If this is impossible to release it for us, then tell at least why?

ZE500KL/KG model is not unlockable,
ZE550KL doesn't boot on our sources so since we don't have the device it's not really easy.

Clearly they haven't ported CM to your phone out of spite. That's obviously the case here. Clearly. /sarcasm

Plss release the cm13 for ze550kl soon plsss . I wilk give cash credits for the developer
I wish people would understand that these developers don't just magically have all the Asus phone models. They are all different inside, from CPU to GPU or screen size and partitions. They tend to buy a single model of their choosing for their own private use and then when they see no custom ROMs for their phone they decide to do it themselves. They are not working for Asus. They are every day people like you and me who are nice enough to release what they can for this community. If you wish to see CM or whatever custom ROM on your device you will either have to learn how to port it yourself or buy that specific model phone for someone who is willing to do it for you. Begging them to "make it soon" or "release now" makes you seem ungrateful and childish.
A big thanks to the people who work hard on these ROMs and release them for us to use.
-snip-
I appreciate all of done work by developers and very apologize for being ungrateful. I really understand that if we didn't get CM, we probably never would have it. Once I got answers, I have no more question and I hope for small chance to get it for our devices.
If I could help to them with testing for example, I would like to help, I have ZE550KL. But I have no skills in ROM stuff.

We don't want testers, we want devs instead. People who can compile it on they own and fix it.
So , Android nougat is finally here , but unfornately only for nexus for now. I dont know about you guys , but i cant wait for it , so Will anyone port it Today ? Or its already porting ? If Yes , update me about the situation, If not guide me to an tutorial of porting, i dont know many things about porting , but i am willing to try If is there no true devs available, and please guide me to a working tutorial.

This is not true at all. You can take the AOSP source, the Moto kernel source, all the binaries you need and then spend some days to get this running.

Not saying it's time well spent or that I want to do it, just saying it's possible. Resources are available here on xda and elsewhere like http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-university-how-to-port-aosp-roms-from-source/ or you can do it exactly as if you were porting cm, https://forum.cyanogenmod.org/topic/15492-general-cyanogenmod-porting-discussion/ or https://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Doc:_porting_intro .
As there already is a cm port for Marshmallow, you could try to see what they did and reapply those changes to aosp.
However probably some stuff changed so finding an Android 7 rom for a phone with very similar hardware and replacing the kernel might be a better idea. All in all as I said it's days of work or even weeks. It's just not true that it can't be done.
Already running Nougat on my nexus 6 and I gotta say there's not much that changed.
Like all the other major updates from GB, ICS,JB, KK ,LP & MM , its over rated.
By tomorrow people will be complaining about N ,like always.
I really hate when major updates happen cause it seems like people are running around like chickens without heads asking when will we receive N. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1EE21MBRWQxvR9xM-iVSBrGs_Pljd4YgYsw/view?usp=docslist_api

You are forgetting proprietary drivers. Until there aren't drivers compiled for 7.0 you can't build neither a working rom. Be patient and wait for Motorola to release a working rom, at least a soak one. If you can't, buy a Nexus device.

Then learn ! We all started from nothing !
However if there is no port yet is because the source code hasn't been released yet. That's pretty hard for a dev to port a rom from a flashable zip made for another device whereas building from sources is much easier.
So be patient and wait. It will not come before weeks, maybe months !
You know, Xiaomi hasn't released Miui7 Lollipop's source code neither, only kit kat, that's why there is not LP miui yet.
I'd also argue that MIUI is nothing special, and Cyanogenmod provides a cleaner, faster and more enjoyable experience, so there isn't much incentive for developers to work with it, especially since much of the source code isn't available for Lollipop. If you REALLY want a decent MIUI experience, get a Xiaomi, they're pretty cheap - you could sell your used Samsung Galaxy Note 3 for about the same price as a new Redmi Note 3.

The Nexus 5 is THE dev's device. Xiaomi ported the rom for the Nexus 5 themselves.
And galaxy j5 has the same specs than the xiaomi redmi 2 so the port was easier. However if you check the thread many things are not working (like cellular data)... That's a lot of work for the dev.
