Hi there,
What is the best questions are not permitted. You have to test these things out for yourself. That is the only way you will get an unbiased answer. What is the best is whatever suits YOUR needs in a ROM. And the only way to find this out is by testing.

Best Custom Rom

Hello everyone, I've created this post to help people post their opinions upon custom ROMs and provide suggestions and help everyone.
I'm using VANIR right now and it seems to be smooth and stable.
My setup : VANIR + SuperSU 2.79 + testv5
State your setups !

AospExtended rom is the most stable with lot of functionalities and less battery drain till now.

Did you try Tesla? I think it's great but I don't know if it's better than AospExtended 3.0. When I tried it, it was 2.0 and it seemed very similar to me. In that case, well, I'll try it again

AospExtended is more customized than Tesla, not as RR but more stable.

there is no "best" ROM, each one have his best one depending his own criteria
however my best one is curently validus + kernel Optimus
my criteria:
- good battery / smooth
- light memory usage
- usefull features/tweaks (all I need, and not too much)
- bug free
- the dev team seems serious (gz)
- no problem to root with phh
- no data toggle bug (not least !)
- Optimus : I like the new governor, no need anymore governor script

The link please

Optimus 19 + RR a little bit slow, and connections problems, but a lot of battery time, better than stock, and very customizable

Those who are uncertain about all the custom ROMs, I'll suggest you guys to use VANIR ROMs. They are very similar to MM and a truly pure experience

Which should be the best (working) ROM for Samsung J5 (SM-J500f)?

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/
Then just need a recovery that will work with stock and XeonHD rom

@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.

Which firmware is the best?

Hi. I used a lot of custom roms but the battery life wasnt that good as in stock. Battery life is very important for me unfortunately, so I need a best firmware for p8 lite. I'm currently using emui 4.1 b895 and sometimes is lagging and I can't find some good kernel for this firmware.
Thanks for help

I am using omni Rom, it's fast, smooth and battery life is good, for me better than other roms

I'm not asking about custom ROM, but thanks. Maybe I will try this. Omni have android 6 or 7?
still searching the best firmware.

Try y6 ii rom b197 or stock b618,when You talk about stock roms

yea, i'm talking about stock roms and also I'll try b618, thanks for the reply bruh

For me dotOS. Pretty nice ui, good battery life also deep sleep is working very nice. Disadvantage is that youtube 60fps is not working (for me, other ppl said that is working with some little lags). As a fan of LOS i have to said that dotOS is one of the best custom rom for p8 lite.

[request] miui rom

why are there still no Miui Rom?

I guess because it's touchwiz based and, as far as I know, there is no touchwiz based rom avaiable. It's a shame in my opinion because MIUI is pretty good overall
