All I could find on Sammobile in firmware for this J3 was for Sprint, same numbers and all as on my Boost phone, its CDMA, this is the one, right? Getting ready to put TWRP, root on this J3, just got it in the mail today!

Thanks,

[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:

There are no viruses in this from wanam i assure you. I've used it and it does indeed work fine.

mentions

ES File Explorer (New Paid, and original) not getting root. Root Explorer does get root (r/o - r/w) by setting cfroot to "grant". SD Maid Pro runs fine..... Link2SD gets root. Have not gotten Xposed on yet, so have not tried Greenify. Has anyone gone to Chainfire's SuperSU thread on here? Mentioned this? This is great, don't see why this problem cannot be completely ironed out.......... Thanks to all the hard work and getting TWRP, this is a windfall!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:
Finally got around to installing Xposed. Installed installer, booted to TWRP, flashed wanabe's .zip, booted back..... let android run through updating apps. Installed greenify, when choosing to use options that rely on Xposed and click the link Xposed opens up and in red at top saying Xposed framework is N-O-T installed?!!! I have seen this before and you usually open up framework, choose to install, ok the warning pop-up and reboot (or softboot) but there is nothing highlighted, there is seriously NO FRAMEWORK installed??????

Any ideas, anybody?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Curtis1973:
This particular version is a modified xposed for odexed devices. Mine says the same thing. Disregard that and install your modules.

New waters........ never been here b4. Greenify (Experimental Features) Xposed module says in red "This module requires a newer XposedBridge version (30) and thus cannot be activated. Same for my other module I use "Bluetooth Toolkit" .apk.....

So, am I out of luck with this Xposed variant of wanabe's?

Can you share the installer .zip you used? When I went to get the three items (installer, uninstaller, etc..) wanabes link to the one I feel everyone else used beforehand goes to a dead page now. I used v.84 for ARM64 sdk22.....

---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:14 PM ----------

Still being a noob to parts of GitHub & XDA, has anyone got a link to the wanam's V.81 Xposed for ARM64 SDK22? I'm not sure what the problem is but I used the latest Xposed Installer V.84 for ARM64 (which this J3 says it is) SDK22 (LL 5.1.1) and it no go............

HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Should I re-flash the .zip with TWRP again??? Other question comes to mind, someone does offer me the right (V.81) .zip, do I run the uninstaller before using TWRP again to put this right version on?

Don't know what got me to this but it looks like an answer to our SuperSU problem! Posting this to get others thoughts, particularly the devs.... What does anyone think? Reloading firmware, flashing this?........
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Curtis1973:
I think all that is needed to end the root issues with certain apps is to set the kernel to permissive mode by turning off se enforcement. Going to test it and see. Will post back if it works.

well turned enforcement off in the default.props of both recovery and boot then repacked,reflashed the supersu zip and the only indication anything changed was boot flag stating recovery was not se enforcing. could not tell anything had changed with super su lag regarding grant time to apps,etc.... although it did appear there was a change but what i cant really tell...by setting super su to grant instead of prompt in default access. still got a delayed toast message saying root explorer had been granted root permission a few moments after i had already accessed root/data which usually gives the immediate prompt when super su was set to prompt. so all in all i dont think anything i tried really changed anything.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:
Okay, this is my first Samsung phone, but it has a reallyy good TWRP (been a bit since having a phone that could use it). I have always stayed stock on firmware, just enjoyed root and apps that enhanced android. But, this being said, and the fact this phone already has marshmellow on it for, or so I have seen listed for Sprint..... what about CM13 or any other full packages that would get past this Samsung weirdness?

Also like to add, I have an app that has worked for me, and is working on this SM-J320P for permissive selenix, its no longer available on playstore and the link I got it from year before last on here. If you want to use it, let me know, and can post a cloud link for download or you can after you get it.

[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:
Thanks, got Xposed on, workig great! Got news, I either did something wrong or if i didn't, don't try flashing the Viper4Android app! I tried the newest one that just installs, it will not catch root, like ES File Explorer won't. So tried the flashable .zip, installs, popup asks to install driver, gives the three choices but afterwards, no matter which driver chosen, will not work. Driver status never says working, and I have been round the block a time or two with V4A installs!!! The main uh oh, I have not turned this phone on with BOOST yet, but do use VoiP apps like Talkatone, Google Hangouts, Magicapp, Vonage. After driver install, or flashing the app, either one, none of these will make calls anymore. They dial, but when other person answers no one can hear each other and actually locks up until force closing. So....... not trying to get too far off what this thread covers, I just wanted to ask when I go to install the firmware, and I hook to the computer and such, what order do I do? Is it necessary to take TWRP off first? How do you do that with Odin? If I just run Odin, which one of the 4 buttons do I click to browse to the firmware?? Just dumb questions like this to get me back up & running, my apologies, any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!

[Miscellaneous Android Development] Curtis1973:
Select the AP button in odin then wait until it loads the firmware and press start. Be sure device is in download mode.

Nevermind I was experiencing a major brain farT! That's the whole point of having TWRP! I'm restoring from A backup. I made one immediately after the TWRP install even before flashing root, then one after root, then one before exposed, then another one after exposed, then another one after I got all my apps and everything on there set up the way I wanted, so I was all the way to the point, had it in the download mode hooked up to computer, file extracted, just about ready to go and it dawned on me..... duhhhhhhhh!!!!! Okay, no more filling up this thread with my BS.

Samsung Galaxy A5 Apps Port For Samsung Galaxy J3

Ported a few apps from Samsung Galaxy A5

Launcher with changeable screen grids 4x4,4x5,5x5.

FM Radio compatible with our device. Everything works.

S Planner and S Planner Widget.

Proper stock Photo Editor Suite that you do not have to download from Galaxy Apps Store and Icon hidden in app drawer. Use from Stock Gallery.

The package is not zip flash ready. You will have to manually copy over the apps to their corresponding folders in system. Then delete stock launcher,s planner calendar and widget,reboot and configure the new launcher and readd your calendar widget if you use it.

Download link : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24545065934258695

Heres a few screens...
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:
Can I begin the "stupid questions"? Never copied apps to system. Is there a certain set of steps you could recommend in doing this with this phone, SM-320P?

Thanks,

zach
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Curtis1973:
Sure,using Root Explorer copy and paste the system/app and system/priv-app folders in the zip directly in to your /system folder. It will ask if you want to merge. Select yes. Then delete your original stock launcher,and calendar app and its widget app,then reboot. Upon reboot you will have the new launcher,calendar and its widget app with weather in the widget and the fm radio tuner plus photo editor for the gallery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] coolbeans2016:
Thank you, once again! Even though the list on this phone states FM Radio there was not one under apps, now there is, and its GREAT, not just good! I am not sure I am using the S5 launcher, could not find the TouchWiz launcher to delete, only saw the Emergency launcher (didn't wanna delete that), & the "Easy" launcher?!! Any ideas? This phone is actually so great now, thanks to this forum! Kudos!

zach

***** UPDATE ***** Had to use SD Maid find what needed deleting, definitely enjoying the 5X5 Screen Grid!!!

Yeah the stock launcher is called twlauncher_ess in priv-app. Or something to that effect.

I have mentioned Asus's launcher, ZenUI launcher and their other proprietary software for clock, calendar, email, contacts, etc.. being available for all android phones. It is the bomb on my Asus Memo Pad 8 181c (Wi-Fi) tablet.... But when I tried to install Google's launcher, it installs, then pops up with the go to settings and choose it? When that comes up it shows the TouchWiz, and TouchWiz Easy, but no Google Launcher to choose?!! Any idea how one would use the Google Launcher on this SM-J320P?

Help please!

I have Asus's ZenUI Launcher installed (could not get option to set Google's Launcher), just wanted to let everyone know that with Asus ZenUI Launcher, all of their other apps work as well and are way above par not only to what samsung had on this phone, but any others I have run into to date (HTC included). Even though the calendar app for Asus says not compatible on playstore, installed .apk and it works, gives you a popup for Asus's launcher that asks to okay it to also create and use widgets for anything else you install! This definitely turns this phone into a 100% customizable device with top of the line email, calendar, flashlight, calulator (gives you a floating widget that can be moved to any place on screen), keyboard (hard to describe but way beyond the average keyboard not just colors and themes), you can check for yourself! Also, note, if anyone hasn't checked playstore listings under searching for just "google" lately, check that out! Ton o' stuff been dropped on playstore from google!

got my fav calendar widget back!!!!!!!!!

The only known Samsung Galxy J3 firmware available is android 5.1.1. Not 6.0.1. You need to download the correct firmware. That is why you are getting a fail error. It seems your J3 comes preloaded with 6.0.1 and not 5.1.1.

The only J3 6.0.1 firmware I can find is for U.S. Cellular. Here : http://www.firmwares.androidinfotech.com/samsung-galaxy-j3-2016-us-cellular-sm-j320r4-firmwares/

Another link for the U.S. Cellular device firmware that may be faster than that above http://downloadmirror.co/android/2zSD/USC-J320R4TYU1APE1-20160518114917.zip

Give it a try to restore your device.

For anyone else getting a boot loop after a supposed successful firmware flash,redownload the firmware and try again. Could be a bad firmware download causing the failure.

Does ur J3 have this problem of setting what ever you choose to do anything with as default app? Gives popup saying under settings app defaults can be reset? Soon as their reset, first time you open browser, text doc, email, anything... which app chosen gets set to default again?

Fixed... needed update anyways!

Reloading the firmware really helped. I have to admit, I get my devices, the last two anyways, through fingerhut. Second one, this J3, and the firmwares have always been like the very first available upon production! I now have a hotspot selection under settings. On it right now using my Asus Memo Pad 8 181c. I do not know if the TWRP had anymore work since my first load, but it no longer asks to install SuperSU upon rebooting from using it or the other message about leaving system unmodded. I also no long have anywhere near the lag in SuperSU requests but ES File Explorer still doesn't snag root. I believe this is it not having updated code to operate in a su system-less root enviroment.

Aight, until later & Once upon a time, yadda yadda, everyone have an excellent great Sunday!

I take it, need to flash stock recovery back before running Odin with it, right? And out of the 4 buttons to search with its "AP" one?

Thanks for the reply. Get this J3 back up & running, will check out the WiFi Tethered page for settings, it hooked just no data passed.

I have learned sometimes when flashing, especially recoveries, its good to pop the battery wait 10, then catch the custom recovery again on reboot. Additional step, did it on this one, no problems..............

Did you get this working?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] johnnyblaze420:
Yea you put tar file in ap and yes i flashed stock rom first let it start up run through inital setup you have to return on your developer mode an check unlock oem restart phone in download mode again flash twrp with odin put tar file for twrp in ap as well an flash super su again your great again lol as if it never happened

I wanted to add, saw on here where Xposed has been modded to run as system-less like SuperSU in MM 6.0 so if MM was ported to this device or we get it like the others have, be good to go with a teeny little help?!!!
