Is there a reason for this? TWRP is on the thing so we should have CRdroid or Lineage on here. But we don't. Why? And is anyone working on one? I would make one, but I don't have enough skill yet.

Hey, recently came from an outdated OPX, and just wanted to see how much of that functionality I can replicate on the OP5.
For example, I've heard CM is kinda dead, so that's out the door. For a custom ROM, what's a good one that people would recommend? I've seen FreedomOS, Resurrection Remix, and LineageOS.
Next, for rooting, would it be a similar process where I flash SuperSU and use Xposed Installer to find/install modules?
Any tips on customizing my device would be appreciated!
Thanks.
Lineage is CM. For rooting you can use Magisk or SuperSU. The choice is yours, but if you want to hide root, use Magisk.
As for Xposed, there is none for Nougat. So no modules for you; you will have to rely on the customization options of the ROM.
That being said, the most feature rich ROMs are Resurrection Remix and AICP.

Thanks for the reply and recommendations!
Are there any pros and cons between Magisk and SuperSU other than hiding root? Also what are the key differences in Lineage, RR and AICP that could help me decide between them?
In addition to that, what would a custom ROM include that stock OOS doesn't? I'm currently rooted with TWRP on stock ROM for now.
hiding the root is pretty much the biggest pro here as it would allow you to use apps such as pokemon go or android pay.
Yeah, that's actually a really nice feature. I couldn't play Pokemon GO since forever ago, and now I can make use of Android Pay.
I'm just still wondering on how to choose a ROM, there's a lot to choose from. RR official/unofficial and AICP are the ones that look interesting right now.

Those are the most feature rich ROMs. Since Xposed isn't an option, you may want to choose one of them.
Guy's I need some help here please!
I can't decide which ROM is better for my SM-J500M. I've tried all ROMs available till now and loved every single one of them, but I want to stick to only one.
Which one of these two you guy's think its the most stable and better to keep with: LineageOS 14.1 or AICP?
Both are similar and have the same base but would be good tho have some advice from you.
So, which one you guy's recommend for me to stick with?
I have LineageOS 14.1 by Dyenete. It's very good, no lags. But i will change it because i don't have to many modules and VPN also doesn't work in nougat custom ROMs.
Like Lineage 14.0.
I need it to try something, but no spoilers, because i dunno if it would work.

There's no stock ROM with Nougat for J5 2015. But many custom ROMs have it. Like Resurrection Remix or LineageOS. If you want smaller OSes, try SlimROM or MIUI if it is for this phone.
But Lineage 14 for J5 2015 is still very bad, still the best for me is Resurrection Remix (I'm using RR).
Hope I did help you.

Can you give me a link for any rom that is on Android 7.0.0, not 7.1.1/7.1.2.
I tried searching for one, but couldnt find anything.
Edit: i meant stock Android. I corrected the title.
Im just really used of saying "stock" when talking about AOSP. My bad. Lol.
There's one way, but I'm not sure it works. My Resurrection Remix has *****d up. I'm actually using Serenity and it's ALMOST like pure Android, but 7.1.1. But if it's pure, maybe you want it?

Nope, nvm. I was looking for 7.0.0, like API24. I dont really care if is pure stock Android.
Aparently there is absolutelly no 7.0 ROM for this phone.
But thanks anyway for trying to recommend alternatives.
hello,
I have seen a topic here before about AOSP based ROM for S8(Exynos), but still can't find any after all that time.
So i was wondering if anyone or any team is working on it? or anyone want to?
I really like AOSP and if i know that no one working on it, maybe i'll teach myself and do it.
Unofficial port is available for s8 but alot of bugs its alpha... Not usabld as a daily driver...dont bother to flash

Hi. I dont't ask much here, but read much in this forum. But now a i have a question about custom rom.
I used custom rom like resurrection remix all my time. Now i see there isnt much for pie. Is our phone dead? I see there are aosp roms like Google Pixel but i dont't know anything about the Features. I like some settings like swipe back, xposed and so on.
Can i use all those Features in aosp?
Thx for some answers
No one can say if could use all my Features?
What about custom rom? Is see linageos 16 but no resurrection remix and others.
Is this the end for our phone? Lineageos 16 last update Oktober?
