J500FN won't boot custom ROMs - Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers

I have OEM unlocked, TWRP flashed, and yeah.
Trying to flash Resurrection Remix and once it's done and I reboot, I get a yellow screen with a couple lines and it gets much worse.

Which Android version are you using?

6.0.1.

That is the reason, you need to be on 5.1 Lollipop to flash that ROM
All you can do now is flash stock ROM, and start all over

AH, so, can I downgrade to 5.1, then flash it?

Sure thing fam, you can, download ODIN, and go to sammobile.com and choose 5.1 Lollipop for your country, and flash it. Root you phone after that and install twrp then flash the RR ROM, it will work, good luck
And next time, read the thread better before flashing ROM, next time it could be worst.

"Unfortunately, SystemUI has stopped."
I can boot the phone, just can't do anything with it.

Can't use 5.1.1 on my J500FN at all, which is disappointing.
The ROM just hangs on the boot logo, even after I've cleaned system, cache, and data.

1) Go to recovery and wipe /system , /data , /cache and dalvik-cache
2) Power off the phone (from recovery).
3) Boot in Download mode and flash the Lollipop 5.1.1 firmware you want.
3) Wait until phone boots succesfully. Then you can flash TWRP for Lollipop 5.1.1: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development/recovery-samsung-galaxy-j5-t3468844 .
Always do the step 1) before upgrading / downgrading Android version, but also when reflashing stock rom with same Android version.

How to enable art??
(this will bootloop/stuck on samsung logo for sure 100%)
go to recovery mount /system and /data
then use adb
Code:
adb pull /data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib
open the file and replace the "libart.so" with "libdvm.so" (no quotes) and vice versa.
for dalvik use "libdvm.so" ///////////// for art use "libart.so"
Code:
adb push persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib /data/property/
Reboot
enjoy bootloop.
some files might be missing.
why?? bcoz if anyone can find how to enable art then it will be too beautiful.

Note- Those facing problem with bootloop, flash TWRP 2.6.3.1. You don't even need to select any option like in Philz as stated in OP. Just do a clean install (wipe system, data, dalvik, cache).
i'm hoping someone will post some screenshot :fingers-crossed:
Whatever....
Tnx ravi.

Silly question--but, did you make a Nandroid backup before flashing the 4.4.2 ROM?? If so, why not restore?

Nexus 10 does not boot after Update

After attempt at installing software update to Nexus 10 tablet will not boot. Have wiped Cache and even then did a factory reset. Nothing. Google appears and then twirling colorful dots and nothing. For hours just twirling dots., Samsung and Google and Best Buy geeks says nothing they can do. No longer under warranty but very upset since tablet was working great until update. I am not very tech savvy but can anyone help or do I just have a new paperweight? Thanks for any advice.
I have not made any modifications to the tablet.
Just flash the newest factory image. Get it and the instructions to flash it from here:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
yes flash the newest image
After getting a notification of the latest update I went and rebooted for the update to install but it went to the twrp recovery and nothing happens, is there a way to install the update?

Hi Khaon, I have stock lollipop version 5.1.1 . (LMY47V) and latest twrp version. When upgrading it restarts and goes to recoverys main screen.

as a newbie .I'm not allowed to reference your link !!
I rooted my nexus 10 using xda instructions., installed CWM. All good. I tried backup and recovery and screwed something up in recovery. Got stuck in recovery mode reboot loop. Many gyrations, no fix, so I tried factory reset. Still no fix.
I decided to install a new version of the OS using the Mantaray tar you reference above. UBS connecting and fastboot. All messages look good. Now I have the problem reported in this thread. Stuck with flying balls and no boot. Very interested in any suggestions you may have.

So you keep just boot looping into twrp, right ?
Did you try installing a custom ROM through adb or just connecting your device?
If it keeps boot looping you gotta to wipe the full storage.

No, on a normal reboot or a shutdown/restart it's fine no problems there but when I try to install the update via system update it reboots into twrp. I attach a pic of my system.

Oh I see, well, you should just flash a custom ROM or if you want to stay with official factory images, you should just follow instruction there:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images
What you do need is just have fastboot executable once you are into the bootloader.
You can easily access the bootloader from twrp : shutdown > reboot into booatloader
Cool thx for your continued help :good:
The problem is due to your attempting an OTA update with a custom recovery (TWRP). You can only do OTA with stock recovery. Once you are in this situation, your easiest way out of it is to simply apply the latest factory image using "fastboot", but this will also wipe your user data so backup any photos, music, etc. before you start. You will also have to reload programs from Playstore once the new image is installed.

7.1.1 (NMF26F, Dec 2016) - 7.0.0 (NRD91P, Dec 2016)

It's out. Download factory images on the official site. Yay!

You don't have to flash NRD91P. Android updates are always cumulative; you never have to flash versions other than the latest.

Same radio same bootloader as previous versions or need to upgrade ?
Thanks all. I was stuck at the boot animation after only doing Cache, System & Vendor.
Had to reflash the whole set (except userdata), TWRP and SU.
For anyone worried about re-rooting and all... Download the Full Firmware package and flash it with FlashFire, just did it and it works perfectly, if you have any mods like the google assistant or "surround sound" mod, you will need to re-flash them but thats all.... easy as pie....
EDIT.... You will also need to re-do your build.prop edits if you did any....

Cannot get TWRP on Oreo, only on Nougat, phone keeps rebooting.

Hi,
I have a S8+, SM-G955F and I cannot have Android Oreo and TWRP (and then root). I only can have Android 7 and TWRP (and then root).
Current situation is: I have Android Oreo, Build G955FXXU1CRB7 is installed. Once I go to Download Mode and flash TWRP, I can boot into TWRP, but my device is not booting into Android anymore. It starts up, shows me the Samsung logo and reboots, then it shows samsung logo again and reboots.
It reboots and reboot and reboots...If I go to TWRP and make a factory reset or format data, it does not help, it only reboots when trying to start Android.
Even if I restore an older backup of boot, systems partition, it does not work...
So what do I do? I flash original Android Oreo firmware once again via Odin and get it back working, but: I loose TWRP again (and cannot flash SuperSU).
Any idea? I would like to have latest Oreo as well as TWRP recovery
Many thanks!

Yes, it was the official one. Just searched the site, but cannot find it anymore. However, flashing the firmware does not need many steps. DOwnload the zip, extract the .tar files in it, open ODIN, load .tar files into Odin and click flash. Then it was flashed and Android was booting again.

I think it was the CSC, but as far as I remember, I also tried the HOME_CSC in the past (not today) but the behaviour was also the same.
As far as I know difference is that with one of these files internal storage is wiped, with the other one it isn't, correct?
But what could this have to do that I get a restart-loop when flashing TWRP? I dont have a problem to flash original firmware, it works. But once I flash TWRP I cannot start Android anymore and have to reflash Android firmware again.

The only difference between my steps and the steps mentioned in your mentioned guide is that they use an older Odin version. But I already used different Odin version too
Ok, aynway, I will try it again with this guide tomorrow and will let you know about the result tomorrow. Thx so far

Hi again,
I got an OTA Update this morning, so current build on phone was G955FXXU1CRC7.
I now downloaded the TWRP file you mentioned and followed the guide you mentioned.
TWRP was installed using latest Odin Version 3.13, then I tried to install SuperSU, but this failed, red error messages like failed to mount /data, unable to mount storage.
same for factory reset, does not work. I formated data, it worked. then I installed Super Su, it was possible. then I rebooted device and what shall I say, it booted into Android
Dont know what I did different now, maybe not trying to boot up Android before installing supersu.zip?
However, Now I have latest Oreo with TWRP and phone is rooted
Now I will go on and install xposed framework :good:
Many thanks for your help.
