I triedAOSP and Lineage OS. But both of them showed the fading and discoloration of the screen during boot, meaning that they were compatible. I am currently downloading the Stock firmware but would like to know whether there are any better ROMs out there than these.
Edit: The stock firmware is giving invalid zip error.

Have you installed Lollypop (5.1.1) before trying the ROMs?

No, I have not. Should I flash a Marshmallow ROM first?

No, read OP, you need Lollypop firmware, just install 5.1 then install this Ron or any time that requires firmware 5.1
You also need recovery compatible with 5.1 like TWRP from Vince (OFFICIAL TWRP) you can download from TWRP site https://twrp.me/devices/j5lte.html
It all depends, if you want to have great camera or you are into taking pictures, never flash AOSP roms, because their camera is a loot worst compared to touchwiz camera (samsungs camera app is optimized like hell)
If you are curious and want to unveil your phone's power I suggest you AOSP/Lineage based ROMs.
Camera isn't enhanced as stock propietary crapwiz one, but works fine. If you love pictures, better you go with a pro Cybershot camera or similar.
I prefer paying the price of freedom and use free software than stay tied to proprietary closed source crapwiz.

Yup it almost works on all Samsung MM based Custom Roms or Ports like A5UX Rom , J2UX Rom etc.
Im also pretty keen to know what ROM you guys think is most suitable ? I am currently using stock 5.1.1 rom on J500F, anything better out there ? Would doing a factory reset on stock 5.1.1 and removing bloatware maybe be the best ? Not trying to hijack the thread but as mentioned im also looking for something as stable with less bloatware and better battery life. Thank You !

You can't get better battery life than stock lollipop + hard debloat, period.
Lollipop is the best for me, plus camera sucks on all custom roms
the smoothest rom is XeonHD , and AOSPextended both are extremely optimized except the camera is not that good , if you don't take pics often i suggest that you install either of them
AOSP-CAF based, are the goods. XenonHD is the better Lineage based rom. You have many options to choose one that fits your needs. Camera is fine, I don't complain about that, You should try to choose the better one that fits your needs.

Thanks for the reply Ragazzza, could i ask which method you used to debloat ? Also did you possibly install a custom recovery and root the phone ?

Picture quality is extremely important for me, i am leaning towards stock.
Have you ran into any problems with XenonHD Taivo ? You say the camera is fine, do you mean its not that much worse than with the stock rom but a little bit of a degradation ? Thanx
i didn't run into any problem in xeon an excellent rom , i recommend it

i could always give them both a try, you guys recommend this method to debloat ? https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/

@Ragazzza debloat zip is very nice if you're in stock. XenonHD satisfied me, very nice and smooth ROM. You should give a try to test by yourself. My better pictures I got with my Cybershot camera. Pictures are fine for daily use, and you have Vince's TWRP that works in lollipop and marshmallow, you choose the correct for your device. And from within TWRP you could debloat too, using the embedded explorer or flashing Ragazzza zip or whatever you want even with no root in your system.

Thanks Taivotat, im going to give it a try when my warranty is up, still have a remainder of 4 months, for now i want to backup>factory reset>debloat, anything other than debloat.zip that you recommend on stock rom without twrp ?

Without twrp, better you try that no root debloat you show us before..
And if you follow correctly the steps to flash twrp, dont need to be afraid. Its from twrp that you could flash a debloater zip, for example, even without root...
You can stay with stock debloated, twrp and no root.
Hope you understand.

The best rom about performance is LineageOS by Vince, but it has the camera focus bug and front flash is sometimes wonky...
If you need working camera and performance i would go with stock, there ain't any rom as stable as stock.

also i came back from stock mm, did a little changes to the lmk, added kraken r3 and undervolt the cpu a little bit and its stable af now so no regrets on going back to stock

Nope the focus doesn't work on any camera app, it will be fixed soon( hopefully).
It doesn't matter, everything will be the same either on LL or MM bootloader.

oh ok
but you said that the rear camera wont focus, so does it mean you cant do manual focus and auto focus on rear camera right?

Hello everyone. I have a question: is there a custom rom (no OOS based) that use the dual cameras? A friend of mine asked me if the lineageos have this function but i said no, so if there is any other custom rom please tell me. Thanks

You can try RR by qwertyTom for enabling various customizations. It supports hal3, so gcam performs well, and it has Snapdragon Camera as default. Overall pretty stable, haven't experienced any random reboot, or any bug. Charging is fast, and battery life seems good.

Latest build 20171230
https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...-remix-v5-8-4-hrafninns-t3668954/post75044248
crDroid 3.8.4 20180106 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_nsHsvCVBg2PROA-IxNTG3LPBxBV7AdX the best
By best I mean, lesser bugs. No scrolling stutter, good battery back up and etc.
I have tried Oreo ROMs before the official Oxygen Oreo comes out, now that it has been out for about a month (?). I think Oreo custom ROM has also improved. I just want your input guys. Thanks!
Also, don't include OxygenOS-based ROMs. So either AOSP or LineageOS-based.
BlackScreenOS
I've tried liquid remix, aicp, omnirom, aosip and the last come resurrection remix... Well i found that the last one is the better.. Long battery life, no lag, the rom is smooth and have all kind of personalizations
BUT i can't understand why i'm in completely mood with Oos 5.0.2 it's simply perfect imo... And i've been always the first to install a custom rom on my device
Now that substratum is working i think oos has nothing to envy at the other roms, rather it has face unlock oos cam etc... and it's for sure the smoothest rom on this phone
I haven't found one yet that fits your description. Tried DU, Screwed, Aquarios, Phoenix, Omni, Liquid Remix, AOKP and CrDroid. All have bugs, are less than smooth or both.
Best is subjective, but if you go with Codename Phoenix you won't regret!

There are a lot of touch latency problems with last week's build and CNP became significantly less smooth as well. A lot of CNP enthusists starting experimenting with other ROMs as a result, myself included.

I will try the latest RR Official out yesterday, but for me the best OOS is xXx and the best Custom AOSP is Phoenix

I don't have your problems, maybe you have some apps/tweak cause this issues or simply Xposed / Module
The problem with DU is that the maintainer for this device decided to stop releasing RC builds after number two because *he has enough feedback" while other phones are getting updated DU builds. Unless you compile the source code yourself you are stuck with an outdated version of DU that is missing many of the ROMs features. I was a big fan of DU before buying an OP5 but on this phone it has never been anything but a substandard ROM. The Nougat version was buggy garbage and based on the attitude with the RC builds Oreo for the OP5 probably won't be any better.
I've only tried RR roms, lots of problems (maybe it's my fault, bad flash or idk) so I'm back to stock. I don't know why but since Oreo I can't go on custom rom, feels like they're more laggy.
cam on non OOS based roms are not very good imo. in oos (or xXx in my case) cam is perfect

How can I explain you brother? I am not the dev. But I am a user of this rom and all I can assure you is that it's fully working (Portrait mode, pro mode etc...). How, I don't know.

I think the other user was asking how you did it, how you installed OOS Camera on the ROM, does it come with OOS camera already? I'm in doubt too, and I'm using Omni ( with OOS camera from magisk mod) and I'm thinking of changing to CnP to check if it is really that good, I know you used both, what do you think?

When it comes to camera, Phoenix is the go! As I says OOS Cam is fully working. It's not pre-installed. Just download the latest apk from apk mirror and install it. There's a delay when starting up the camera, you will just need to wait a little bit,then everything works perfect. Even clearer picture than on OOS itself.
