Can I switch to sprint from boost on my j3 without unlocking since boost is owned by sprint
[Miscellaneous Android Development] isntanything:
dpi

im using the lite rom on j320p.

noticing that screen size in certain apps seems incorrect (launcher, camera)

i read the note that it should be as simple as editing the dpi in build prop, but to what dpi? its set to 294, which is this models default. i dont really understand, can someone help?

thank you.

matt
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rony raj:
Yes you should change dpi according to app

if apps look much bigger you decrease the dpi

ex 240 to 220

if apps looks much smaller or not fitted in screen

increase the dpi

ex 240 to 260

use nova launcher as pixel look from my signature
[Miscellaneous Android Development] Keszm0:
DPI stands for pixel density. To remedy your problem, go to the play store, download easy DPI changer [root], change DPI to 320, delete DPI changer. Money!

If you start messing around and punch in some ridiculous number you might get a surprise! -cheers-

I'm running the J3 lite rom. I was wondering if anyone had a idea of how to get the theme engine working. I noticed the apk's for it are missing. I've tried installing the apk's in sys/app,sys/priv app. If there's anyone with knowledge how to do this I would appreciate a guiding light.

Thx
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 42o247:
did you change the permissions of the apk to 444? or read write
[Miscellaneous Android Development] KUSHLEGEND:
I've tried changing permissions r-w-w,r-w-w. ..several variations. I keep getting force closes evrytime afterward. I'm not sure if I have it in the right floder (sys/priv-app). Not a noob but feeling stuck. Is there a falshable theme zip. Or something.?

Trouble flashing TWRP

I am unable to flash the TWRP recovery to my phone.

The hardware version is J320P.02 / MSM8960.

The software version is J320PVPU1APH2.

I inadvertently turned on the FRP by linking the phone to my gmail. But after factory resetting the phone, the download mode says that FRP is off. I've also set OEM protection to Off in the settings and as well as run CROM on the device. But I still cannot flash TWRP. At least, not with Odin.

Any help would be appreciated.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] bakerd62:
Anyone working on a custom ROM or finishing the cm13 ROM that's out there? The ROM seems okish but the only thing I was able to do to fix phone calls, well not really a fix but I used Facebook's calling app to make calls, messaging works fine, just that I wish someone could finish the build to make it a daily user.

pop battery

Have not been on this thread for a blue moon but the last compilation of TWRP androidlover compiled did not seem to work, wouldn't stick, even after booting back into the recovery after install...... until I added popping the battery!

So, using Odin, install TWRP, then before rebooting into the recovery, remove back, pop battery, wait 10 seconds or so. Put battery, cover back, boot into recovery using proper key sequence:

Excuse me for any ignorance to development on the SM-J320P....

Last involvement on here about 6 months or so ago, me and couple other XDA members were working on this phone (permissive kernel... Cody, deodexin/eliminatin Knox/apps w/script... cannot remember his name)

But could you please post any links, info for this slimrom?

Had given this Samsung sm-j320p to a friend but he just gave it back after waiting LG out till the release of their G6....

Thanks,

zach

There are threads on XDA concerning "flashing" phones in between Sprint & BOOST....

Sometimes using CDMA Workshop to edit apn's....

Hope this helps

zach

ps. You can also check your IMEI on Ting's site for availability using their wireless service (also good for just seeing if phone is black listed) if that's a viable option

Hey guys just saying hey Miss all the buzz that use to be here
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cfiv84:
I've been researching this update to the J3 lite ROM. I have the exact stock ROM and model of phone needed for this update to work. I have been able to download all of the needed files like ODIN, TWRP and the ROM itself, however, the link for the LTE fix is broken and I have tried several throughout this thread.

Do I need this for my phone to work on Virgin mobile for 4g after the update, or can I go without? It seems that this should be done from what I have read here. What exactly does this effect?

Is there another working link for this or can someone upload it?

Many thanks for your help!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rick.wardenburg:
Cant exactly remember what the fix involved its been awhile and may have deleted it on accident, but befor anything ill help ya if you need it but backup ypur /system/csc folder and make sure to replace after installing j3 lite rom that will ensure most the network issues will be taken care of
[Miscellaneous Android Development] cfiv84:
Thank you for the prompt reply and advice. I found that folder on my phone and it has a few directories beneath it as well. I will grab the whole /system/csc tree of files. Are there any other important folders I should grab before the update?

I plan to back up all of my data, contacts, & texts. But I am curious, will the apps I have installed remain after the ROM change, or will I have to re-setup the phone? Just want to know how much time I am in for when I do this.

Also, I'm wondering if there are any tools for flashing/talking to Android phones from Linux?

Thanks again!
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rick.wardenburg:
Just make a backup incase as far as linux use vbox to use odin

my phone is stuck in a boot loop after flashing TWRP... I've tried reinstalling stock recovery but it still gets stuck... Help??
[Miscellaneous Android Development] motherofadog:
uh, oops?

Hi, I know I probably sound like an idiot for this, but I followed the directions and now my phone is stuck in odin mode. I'm guessing I missed a step or did something to screw it up. When I try to reboot nothing shows up, it just stays on the downloading screen. The thing failed so I tried to reboot and it's still not working. Is there a step I'm missing? Is there any way to save my dear old phone?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] motherofadog:
Actually I was really nervous and needed it for work so I said screw it and took the battery out and put it back in. It's working perfectly but I still want it rooted. :( Are there any reasons that Odin would say it failed? I also tried without pc and flashify says it has no root access, how should I go about fixing that?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] nannycrick:

I flashed the twrp recovery with Odin, and that worked great. I installed the supersu.zip through TWRP and worked no problem. My device said it had root access, and I downloaded a few root Apps but they said that my device is not rooted. I used root check again and said root is not properly installed on my device. . any idea why?

Device is Samsung SM-J320P boost mobile

Any reason why Kingroot won’t work for me?
[Miscellaneous Android Development] pashiona:
having some issues

First off thank you for all you do. Im a complete noob with this stuff and this guide is great.

With that i am having problems .

So ... i have Odin on my pc along with the latest supersu and a os recovery file since i learners my lesson.

I have flashed the version of twrp listed on the original post because the newest version does not work for me...it will load and i cannot interact with the screen in any way. Aside from that i do get the "recovery is not seandroid enforcing " although at this point twrp will still load and i can even reboot my phone and get in jjst fine.

Once i install yhe supersu zip(i got the latest version from supersu ) from twrp i end up getting the bootloop. The message in the corner says system bit warranty : kernel.

So i have soft bricked my phone twice now using this method. Than fully was able to fully restore with the stock OS file.

My end game for wanting to root my phone is just being able to manipulate my apn to try and unlock data/Hotspot. .. so if anyone's has any advice for me id greatly appreciate.

My phone is Samsung j320p 2016 android 5.1.1
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rick.wardenburg:

[Miscellaneous Android Development] pashiona:
hi

Thank you for the quick response! I do have this option already done prior to flashing twrp through odin. I usually turn this on firstly then shut down and boot in Odin mode and go from there. Any other suggestions or info i could provide to help troubleshooting? Lol this slow Internet makes it super hard to load this oage and respond haha

[Miscellaneous Android Development] ryan9126:
Unclear

Sorry if I'm a noob, but this guide is unclear. When Odin finishes, it just says RESET and never PASS, but then it says PASS when I restart my phone normally. Then the guide says boot into recovery, so I do that. But then what do you do after that? It doesn't boot into TWRP recovery, just normal recovery.
[Miscellaneous Android Development] rick.wardenburg:
[MENTION=8756744]ryan9126[/MENTION]

Uncheck auto reboot in Odin,

Flash twrp with odin, immeaditely pop battery out

Holding the correct button combo for recovery turn it on. Don't let device boot to OS right after flashing TWRP it won't stick on your next reset hope I understood your question right
[Miscellaneous Android Development] tattmann:
Hey, I did a search and didnt find exactly what I was looking for, So let me ask here. I am not new to rooting or custom firmwares, or magisk. I have a j320p that I would like to use magisk on instead of supersu. I realize I would have to flash twrp first, then go to recovery, then flash for the root. Would I simply flash magisk instead of supersu to have root stick and work, or is there another way I would have to go? I just dont want to have to use chainfire and have problems switching over to magisk after. I have had massive problems with that in the past. Any input is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Please be advised:

I was searching for a rooted ROM for this device.

I either loaded this one, or one other, but there is a security issue. Suddenly, all of my inbound calls come from Iran (and I guess that my phone's security is compromised).

Whether intentional, intentional, or not directly related to this rom (if it was another, but I saved this page and no others so I could backstep if necessary), its worth noting so others do not potentially experience this.

DEV of rom, please investigate.

First of all, you have changed your post 3 times now. Second of all your not sure what ROM you used but your warning people.?

I just want to say that I Flashed the ROM using Odin and following the instructions carefully. Installed the latest the SuperSU, and my J320P (Boost Mobile) is doing what I want/need it to since last week. I bricked my phone a few times but after a lot of reading and comprehending I now have a fully rooted, debloated phone. Thanks to idoneapps its also unlocked. I went from Boost CDMA to GSM and I owe it all to this forum.

Thank you very much! :good::good::good::good::good::good:

My point is, if you take the time to read, understand and follow the instructions everything works. You can also ask for help here.

This is not some fly-by-night forum. Nobody is developing viruses here.

Id love to post my screenshots for you but I'm a new member. :cyclops:

What's funny is the reason I rooted the J3 was that I was bored when sitting in front of my desktop and happened to have a charging cable and my phone next to me. So, what do I do? I plug my phone into my computer and root my phone. Rooting my phone cured my boredom. Btw, I rooted it back in 2017 right after I cracked the screen. I still have the phone to this day
[Miscellaneous Android Development] 10th&Bennett:
Greetings,

I posted the following on the noob page but in case I don't hear anything there, I'll post the following here since post #1115 on this thread pertains to my situation.

I tried installing TWRP, but I get a "Custom Binary(recovery) Blocked by FRP Lock" error. It won't even go through on Odin. There is no way I can enable USB debugging on my device since I have a black screen that only shows a small clock.

So I retried the Stock ROM and ran it again and get the same error. I assume "complete restore" means using the stock .md5 file I had originally.

Any ideas I can try before factory reset?

Thanks in advance.
