Thanks the call recorder is working absolutely fine except the voice is bit low, thanks to samsung. May be u can do something to increase the voice of the recording file. Anyways we don't need to install a 3rd party app for call recording.

Camera is not good. Don't know technicality of it but when you open an image and try to expand it a little also it pixalates a lot, 8 mp of redmi 1s camera is better than 13 mp of samsung j7 cam. so it seems we need to do something so that it doesn't pixalate much and improves the quality of the camera. Front camera has the same problem too.

We all are looking to deodex this rom so that we can try installing xposed framework. (Its seems xposed framework works only for deodex samsung stock rom 5.1.1. version)

I didnt feel any lag too as it is i am not a gamer so dont know.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
For deodexingbyour rom you have to provide me some things.

The system.tar...... to get it usd terminal emulator and type command

su

tar -c system/* >> sdcard/system.tar

And here terminal will appear to do nothing wait till it writes anything.

When terminal is done you will have a system.tar file in your internal sd card ( for that you need a 2gb free spacd in internal.

For getting syatem folder you can also send me the nandroid backup system if the above doesnot work for you.

And the boot.img/recovery.img from any nandroid backup.

Zip the three files and compress them to max level and send a google drive link.

I will deodex them and send them back to this form within 5 days ( actually i use 2g betwork so it will take a night to download and another night to upload):mad::mad:.

Till now i have deodexed manu samsung galaxy devices and found a common problem. If you deodex systemui and framework then your apps (not all) stops working and when i use the odexed systemui and framework the rom worka just fine.

So first i wii uplode the whole deodexed one. If there is any issue with that rom then plz tell me i will use the odex systemui and framework.again.

Need following changes in rom or need mods.

Thanks for your Recording Calls..Works superb !!

Its all kind request..So Dont take it as ordering, because the following words may look so..

1. Camera Quality Tweek (Also pixel break should be removed ). Front and back. Also need samsung default camera (jellybean) because its auto focus is best one.so sure the pixelation will be removed i hope.

2.Default samsung Music player (Can be jellybeans) !!

3.Need deodex Rom . So that we can install Xposed Framework or deirectly u can include the xposed framework inside custom rom.:)

4. Or wanam xposed !! but it need xposed framework lib to run so 3rd point in necessary .:p

Its Not at all lagging, so dont think about it, just need the above then this J7 will be a heaven for users !!

Gamings are Superb Speed and No lags at all. Can do multi tasking !!

personal request .

I need xposed for my galaxy j700
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aniesh1114:
nghia0423 manage to make a deodex rom for Samsung Galaxy J7 700f (Indian Version). Below is the link for the file. However after flasing this file i am constantly getting error for Keyboard & Google Playservice. Tried Wiping Cache & Dalvik Cache but still getting the error constantly because of which i am unable to use the phone. I went back to stock again. It seems we are very close to get a deodex rom except this few issues which i hope someone will look into it and solves it.

Yes bro, same issues !! Do he is working on this issues ?
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aniesh1114:
No as he could only deodex the rom. He downloaded the firmware from sammobile to deodex as he don't own a phone. Probably someone who owns this phone download this file and sort the issues.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
This is due to deodexing systemui and framework.

In next rom do not deodex thaem and the problem will be gone
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] aniesh1114:
I am not a tech guy. Hence have a doubt. We want to install xposed framework so is it not required to deodex framework too.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
I think its not.

Till now i owned three samsung devices and all support xposed very well without deodexing anything
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] nghia0423:

I will try to make the deodex Rom in the coming week using the kitchen
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] arfathcse:
gOOD !!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
Using kitchen will mqke a rom with same problems like some apps wont open up.

Deodexed systemui and framework folder are not fit to go onn with.

I think they meed deodexing in a different manner which kitchen does not do.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] tapan15in:
Than I need to leave the systemui and framework folder. And deodex the rest. What's your view on that.. you habe any idea how shoild we do it
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
previous in this post i have given the way to do exactly what you asked

samsung galaxy core 2
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] arfathcse:
Hi

Just deodex the following:

1. System / App

2. System / Priv_app

No need to deodex the Framework folder currently !!

later we shall try it after we get stable deodexed !!

(But when u are using LBD 2.5, then you have to include Empty "Framework " Folder and include boot.oat file.

Otherwise deodex the Framework folder too and after succesfull deodex, replace the framework with the stock.
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
did you deodexed the systemui also if yes then include the odexed systemui in rom for stablity

samsung galaxy core 2
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] nghia0423:
Test

Here is a flashable zip. Deodexed app and priv app folders using LBD 2.5 but left framework and systemui untouched. Let me know if it works. It is based on 5.1.1 the Sept 1st build.

yes its working Well and now my galaxy J7 is deodexed !!

I tried myself deodexing and i tried yours too..

Samsung Galaxy J7 is Deodexed Now !!

Issues: (Solvable)

1. PLEASE replace the Samsung keyboard !! it keep on force closed !!

2. One Drive (if possible , remove it) .

(Dont afraid, you can manage by yourself, follow the below points as i did !!)

or

Self Solve : (Till he fix) plz fix it soon asap bro .

1.Samsung keyboard, ( dowload google keyboard from playstore and set it as default) [Temporary till he fix it or try to flash yourself samsung keyboard from s6]

2.One Drive . (it will auto download from playstore, so no problem)

But still this is not good to solve this by users.

So plz try to fix keyboard issue.

Now my mobile is deodexed !! :good:

Now can try for XPOSED Framework AND TELL ME if any succeed , Since i am leaving to foreign trip, i cant try it now !!
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
did you tried the rom with framework and systemui odexed.

i think that rom will not have such isssues.

if so just go to settings clere the app data and force close the app and restart the app again will solve the problem.

[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] nghia0423:
Well I don't own this device. I was just helping the OP as he posted in another forum as well. Maybe we can try by not deodexing the keyboard?

These are of Indian Variant ONLY! :angel:
[Samsung Galaxy J7 Guides, News, & Discussion] droid_god:
Now this is some thing wierd.

Doing the dirty flash just copy the files in your rom which are not present from before in system.folder of device and overwrites the others but do not delete the odex files.

So dirty flashing a deodexed rom on odexed device is of no use.

In a deodexed rom if apps are deodexed correctly. The rom will support clean flashing otherwise zdeodex the rom properly.
