Galaxy J3 (2016) SM-J320FN Android 6.0/Android 7.0 Custom ROM Port

How to port CyanogenMod 13 /Android 6/ or CyanogenMod 14 /Android 7/ for SM-J320FN?
Is there ready unofficial build?

I would defo like to know if there is too

Hi,
A few days ago I bought this device for my wife. Before I informed me about it's hardware specs.
For myself I'm owner of the J5(Which already has its own subcategory on XDA).
It seems like the two has nearly the same HW specs except the camera and the front flash which is missing.
I didn't try it by my one for now but maybe the Roms/Recoveries are compatible?!
Will there be soon a forum for the j3?

seems like they got root for it, but no roms. wish i knew how to code lol

i think messi stopped working on CM for this device, not totally sure

I am working on an unofficial rom of Lineage OS (Cyanogenmod) for the SM-J320FN, however there are some things i need people to help me with.
Check it out here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/gen...xy-j3-t3553175

Yeah, I really need some help!

I suggest to all of the owners of a J3 to not install a Marshmallow ROM yet. This is why.
Recently I was scrolling trough Sammobile (sammobile.com) and I saw this post (https://www.sammobile.com/2017/02/17/galaxy-s5-mini-marshmallow-update-rolling-out-now/) about the S5 Mini getting Marshmallow.
Now you might be asking:What does the S5 Mini need to do with a J3 2016.
Even I questioned it first but when I went back I found this (https://www.sammobile.com/2016/05/0...-the-galaxy-j3-2016-getting-marshmallow-soon/) which is old but if the S5 Mini got it so the J3 2016 will get it aswell.
And I also questioned myself to be sure that recently a security patch released, so you can safely say that the J3 2016 is still supported, just be patient.
Thanks for Listening

Unless there is an official nougat release for Note 4(which will never happen), there is almost zero possibility of getting an nougat port, remember note 4 & note 5 are entirely different devices & it would take a lot of time of do something like this & even then stability might not be there, although there are already many Note 7 ports available, which contains exactly same functionality, but all are & most likely will be marshmallow only, if you want nougat, Lineage Os & other roms based on it are your best shot.

The Note 3 is not upgradeable to TouchWiz Marshmallow, but there are rom ports that are touchwiz marshmallow for that device, besides, I don't quite remember the dates, but, I think the note 4 had Note 5 ports based on marshmallow even before having official marshmallow.
According to this, I don't see why someone couldn't port nougat touchwiz based rom without it being LinageOS rom.

Let's see, personally i don't think it would happen, Even if it does, its will never be as stable as Marshmallow without official nougat firmware & it's​ a time consuming process, besides if you follow the threads , you can see that none of the devs have shown any interest so far in doing the same, they are supporting note4 for a long time & have moved on to other devices & note 3 has a much active development community than note 4 , so, no point in comparing these two.

I agree on that, even if it's possible to port, it wouldn't be as stable as an official update. And yes, note 3 development is much bigger than note 4's, and the exynos variant is not a huge interest to developers, as snapdragon is much easier to work on.
Maybe someone will port note 5 nougat, but it wouldn't be in a near future, or stable either, or have the desired support we want.

I'm afraid the kernel and bootloader will be the main issue here. The N4 is stuck with M kernel and bootloader, which is very likely be the dead end to this potential project. Plus the M firmware would most likely not work with the new Nougat software. One can only try but I think stability and performance wouldn't be optimal even if the port was able to actually boot and run with the M firmwares of the N4. This is why dev's are not jumping on this with enthusiasm. This is likely a no win situation and since it takes so much time and work porting these newer TW software, it's simply not worth it to do this for little to no reward other than self pride. It's definitely not enough to persuade me to take this on but I may try and see if I can get a booting TW nougat rom on my N4. A lot has changed in the Nougat framework so I have very high doubts but you never know.

SM-T560 Lolipop

Hi guys! GSM Arena says that this tablet comes with Android 5.1 a.k.a Lollipop. My Tab E is 4.4.4 a.k.a KitKat. Sammobile has no Android 5 or later version for this model.
Is there any particular reason to go custom or not? Thanks.

That's because they're listing both the international and the US version. The US model has a Snapdragon 410 cpu, and received a Lollipop update. I'm not sure why they left out the majority of Tab E users, because performance-wise, the international Spreadtrum T560 model is even a tiny bit better, at least compared to a Galaxy A5 2015 with SD 410 chipset.

The Spreadtrum-based T560 is a fair bit slower than the Qualcomm-based T560NU. The T560NU and 8-inch Galaxy Tab A have the same hardware (other than screen resolution) so if you look at a page such as this, anywhere you see "Samsung Galaxy Tab A 8" you can assume the T560NU would perform the same.
Performance differences aside, I can only guess that Spreadtrum never updated their code for anything above Kitkat. I guess they're about as reliable as MediaTek as far as updates go.

T561m
I have a t561m that also stayed in Kitkat. A feather. Also I can not find another Rom to update.

From what I've read about the site it's difficult to register & you have to pay to download though that part seems to be through forum points.

Doesn't look like any are for the T560NU. The one for CM13 comes closest, labeled as "gtelwifi", but that's not the T560NU. The others look (by name) even further off the mark.

SHHHH... I can´t believe that. I´ve been struggeling with that for years. Trying to update my old TABE 9.6 SM-T560 to some newer Android than 4.4 KitKat. I need to run a certain app on it, that supports 5.0 and newer only. I´ve used this rom "And here is cm 13 running marshmallow 6.0.1"
And it works like magic. With gapps 6.0 pico - I can even get to the play store. Unbelievable!!!!
Thanks a ton!!!! Heaven on earth!

good stuff

can confirm 14.1 nougat works with T560 (getlwifi) tho it shows as model T561 in sysinfo, only gripe is recent apps button no work & RAM has decreased a whopping 1 Gb, use proper TWRP & don't LET TWRP flash SuperSU flash the zip yourself from within twrp.
pico 7.1 gapps is required for cm 14.1
edit: been using for 2/3 months, most stable, no complaints.

GT- N5100 (kona3gxx)

it is galaxy note 8.0 gt n5105. Also it has wifi and lte

Think 5100 is similar.

Install android 7.1.2
I update n5105 from android 4.2.2 to android 7.1.2. Everything seems good. but there is no Samsung application. I install from Google play. But any of them does not work. Especially I want to use snote and spen. But does not work. How can I add samsung applications? İs there anything like Gapps may be called Sapps?

As far as I know, those Samsung applications will work only with Samsung ROMs. They need some proprietary functions not present in third party builds. There is software to use the pen, though. Coto Note comes to mind. Haven't used it for anything but brief testing, though.

Samsung apps mostly works only on Samsung Rom. There are some modded als also for Stock (vanilla) Android.
So if you use that 7.1.2 Rom you must find other apps than Samsung ones. They won't work.

Would you mind sharing the secret to getting that installed? I'm trying to do the same thing, but I can't get past the signature verification error. I'm not sure what to do.

Just got given Samsung GT-N5110, Yikes KitKat lol... Lets not!
Good old Odin, TWRP and now trying this build!
Glad I found this post with useful links, near end of 2021 too!!
Thanks!

This is crazy was asked can I do anything with it was going in Bin! I said wait No! that tablet is old, guy said you can't load much on it because it was old...
Actually really good old tablet, I went from memory and this forum...
I am not at Noob so skipped through a lot and did what I membered!
Same keys as S3, put in Download mode, use Odin to blast bootloader, reboot and quickly press right key combo before official software kicks it out.
Reboot again and see friendly TWRP as your bootloader.
I just saved a not bad old tablet from bin! I gonna keep, so glad for this forum!!!!
My main and only phone is a Samsung Galaxy A10 because it is my only 4G device decided not to mess with it BUT was phone to try with device I was given as tablet... Never push your luck!
I have made a brick before in my time!!!
Happy ending here!!!
Nice to be back!

Yes that old Samsung Note 8 has got new lease of life!
What memories from S3 that good old reflash Boot loader and hit key combo before original bootloader is retained!
Got TWRP going, got my Gapps and root, job done, nice!
WARNING:- Anyone with old Note 8 please don't just jump in! Yes it is possible, don't ask me if your a Noob, don't ask me what is a bootloader, what is Odin, what is TWRP, what is Root?... You can turn your tablet into chopping board! I am playing with Lineage on mine, you playing with Cucumber on yours?
Thankyou awesome links!

Nice Job, last step TWRP root file and enable in Dev Options!
Fully Rooted and enjoying the fact someone is still updating build for patch level.
Old tablet but not that bad once you get rid of KitKat lol!
This guy was going to chuck it out and said to me it will be limited because of old software... He told me dispose of it.... Just showed him now and he asked why did Samsung do this update for you not us, answer is they didn't!
This is why I love Android over Apple!

Are there any custom roms?

Hello everyone,
i have the 2015 p024 and i searched everywhere for a custom and i only found CM14 with android 7.1 nougat
The problem with it is the touch doesn't work and it was the only non-stock rom i found on the whole web
I went to lineageOS's website and the link gave me a 403 forbidden error
after that i looked everywhere but I didn't find anything
I don't like the asus stock rom and i want a cleaner experience
PLEASE HELP ME!

When I was helping my old school restructure their IT, they have 2 old (unmanaged) p024s and 4 zenpad s8s (Intel) that were still in use… they ran android 6 and the apps they were using didn’t support the tablets anymore. I looked for a custom rom… AFAIK there are no custom roms for these.
