Hello, guys.
Today I made a full working, flashable TWRP 3.0 recovery for our single SIM device. But do you still need it? Cause I made it for personal use, and if you do - I can post it here. Just need your answer. Thx!
MotexT
Great, please upload it! Does it work with marshmallow? Just flash it in flashtool? And is it hotbootable as well?
Yes please post it!!
Yeah please upload it. I am eagerly waiting for it.
But rather put it into the development section then. And a question... What do you think about building cm for this device?
So, as soon as I finish some test for DualSim version - will post it here. Need also some help with thread creating - it will be first time when I create a new Dev thread on XDA, so I need to respect all stuff like credits, devs, license etc. PM me who can help.

Guys from 4pda forum tested my recovery for both, and looks lije both work properly. So will post it here. Who don't want to wait for thread - PM me, will send direct link for download and instructions.
Guide for installing TWRP with link to download
Inside my Drive Folder head to Recovery folder and then download either twrp1 for SingleSim or twrp2 for DualSim
Drive Folder
Guide for installing
Put twrp1.img/twrp2.img to Fastboot folder
Hold Shift and then right click on tge window
Then "Open command line here"
In command line write "fastboot flash recovery twrp1.img/twrp2.img
Connect your phone holding Vol+ button
A blue LED will light up for a while, you will receive "Done or Ok" in command line
After that disconnect your phone abd turn it on
And when yellow LED will appear on Sony logo, press Vol+ one time
Soon you will enter the recovery main menu
twrp1.img for SingleSim and twrp2.img for DualSim respectively
This recovery doesn't have to be reflashed or rehotbooted - this is FOTA one, it will rest untill you reflash FOTA partition
Do I need to be rooted to do this? I have dual sim not locked bootloader and not rooted.

To root your phone flash custom kernel from This thread. Then flash my recovery (still uploading DualSim version, wait 5 min), and through recovery flash latest SuperSu binary and DRM Restore (for recover lost functions after unlocking Bl).
Really really awesome, I'm so happy the device finally gets some love! Should be just as well be flashed via flashtool, right?
Edit: oh and I'm really excited that you're trying to port cm

You can flash a custom kernel from another thread by using Flashtool. But to flash the recovery you need to use Fastboot. Maybe after I will merge kernel with recovery into one flashable unit, but I need some time to figure out how to do that. Stay tuned, cheers!

Excuse me, how can do that DRM Restore? I unlocked my BL long time ago without any Backups...
And one more thing, there is any Xposed version for the dual vers E6533?
Thanks a lot.

Yep, you can use the latest Xposed Framework (SDK 23). And about DRM Restore - just flash attached file and be happy. Cheers! ?

Can I flash the drmrestore onto a fully running system or does it have to be applied before first boot after rom install?

Am very thankful for all your help and knowledge, my resume is this:
- kernel flashed OK
- TWRP 2 launched OK
- SuperSU flashed OK
- drmrestore flashed OK (at this point I really start appreciate for the first time after months my device)
- Installed Xposed OK
Everything looking so good, I get some time installing lot of things... then I decided to make a Wipe cache / dalvik and unfortunately I get stuck at the boot screen.
Does you recommend anything?
Hi
SM-G900F
Sorry but im still a bit of a noob with phones so bare with me.
I use to be with EE network but have now had my phone unlocked and using on another network. I have also rooted my S5 so can not update via settings and software update as get error "the OS on your system has been modified"
I know i can put a custom rom on but just out of interest, can i stick on any stock network rom onto my S5 as i see that Vodafone are the first to have released marshmallow update for there sold S5.
Have hooked my phone up to laptop and ran Samsung kies 3 and it says i have the latest update even though im still on lollypop.
Do i have to unroot my phone before i can get marshmallow update?
Cheers
Flash this with ODIN

No, ODIN doesn't wipe the phone, it just upgrades it, it will remove anything custom like root or recovery though

Yep, but use TWRP 3.0.0.0 recovery with ODIN instead (Much more powerful too)
Then flash SuperSU 2.71 beta from TWRP

Next step installing TWRP as you recommended, can you point me in the right direct where to download the correct version of TWRP for my S5 as only seem to be finding S4 version or for kitkat?
Also do i need to make sure its rooted before i do this?

Nice job, I get my TWRP from here
https://dl.twrp.me/klte/
.tar version and flash with ODIN
3.0.0.0 seems to be the last stable version atm, not sure if the newer ones are bug free yet
That root you used might cause problems, the 2.71 beta systemless is the one for MM ROMs atm, the others either don't work fully or overheat the phone with constant high CPU usage
If you have problems, flash this one from TWRP

Hi folks,
I just got my self A2017G global variant and on B08 firmware and i had been reading all the threads and seems like there isn't any way to BL unlock and root A2017G model yet right?
And i'm also really confused, if you need to root you need to have BL unlock? Due to flashing TWRP recoveries?
Thank in advance !

Follow this thread to install TWRP, BLunlock and root : https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379
As @bungie240 quoted : installing TWRP and directly flash Supersu 2.65 gave booting problems. He had first to unlock BL and then flash Supersu again.
Hi folks,
i have the same problem: A2017G V1.0.0B10
I followed this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/guide-install-twrp-unlock-bl-flash-t3517379
Can't find TWRP that works with my Version. I have Tried TWRP ailsa_ii 3.0.3, 3.0.3.1, 3.0.4
Neither worked. Booting with Volume up and Power-Button will always lead into black screen with red led.
Normal Boot works, i am not rooted. Stock ROM.
I would really like to go to LOS 14.1 but there seems to be no way.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Thx
Same here.. I can't download the twrp at http://d-h.st/dgWW as in the guide

Had the same issue, you have to flash the twrp in the OP that is 3.0.2.
The others fail to flash, then upgrade the desired version once you have twrp working

You just need to follow the Install Instructions on respective threads to your Android version.
[RECOVERY][T.W.R.P-3.0.2.0]Samsung Galaxy J5 [Android 5.1.1]
[RECOVERY] [TWRP-3.0.2-0] Samsung Galaxy J5 [MM][Android 6.0.1]
Use this Odin https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=95375
You can follow this video to see how to install TWRP (ONLY)
Follow only the video instructions to install TWRP, do not use any other links or files
PS: most of the custom ROMs uses Lollypop firmware, i suggest to downgrade to Lollypop before install any custom ROM

Well you must READ carefully, your problem has solution. Don't forget when flashing twrp to uncheck auto reboot option from Odin, so after twrp flash with Odin you push out battery for 5 sec. and power on with buttons combo into recovery and twrp will ask you if you want to make this changes permanent, just swipe and you're done.?☺?

There's no need to pull battery out, you reboot by press and hold Volume down+Power

Its everything you should know about our device, pay attention your model j500f. And important you know the TWRP youre using, it differs when youre are with lollipop and marshmallow. I will suppose that youre on Marshmallow right now, so there are ROMs you can flash straight through twrp. If you wish to try Nougat ROMs, better downgrade as American Jesus States above. Remember to READ carefully, as many of your questions has been answered before. I prefer stable roms, less bugs than newer ones. Try first a ROM without downgrading like CM13 port by Zonik, or stock based ones, just to get confident on your skills, after this you can test downgrading, to taste the latest Nougat and others non-nougat roms that relies on Lollipop firmware. Take your time to first learn and know your device specs and you'll be fine. Hope this help you ???

You will use Odin to flash ONLY bootloader, if you flash modem you can loose your WiFi.
As youre in Marshmallow you will pick the Lollipop bootloader. You must pick the TWRP of Lollipop too to avoid incompatibilities with the changed bootloader . You follow the instructions sequencially First flash lollipop bootloader and without leave Odin you flash the Lollipop TWRP. American Jesus show you the thread above. And voil

Hey guys
Soon I'm planning to upgrade my nougat to the beta build which you can find here. Does anyone have a good method to root the system afterwards? I'll try simply flashing SuperSU zip, but I doubt it will work, because it didn't even work on the older 7.1 OS.
Any suggestions or good advice with the upgrade & root process?
Thanks

If you use the TWRP backup that has magisk pre-installed you just need to install magisk manager and reflash magisk and you're good to go.

Nope. SuperSU does work in Nougat. I'm flashing latest SuperSU 2.82 SR5 on December build using TWRP and root works just fine.
