[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Nikolaos Kalomiris:
Hello guys! I had some serious issues with my old PC setup, so I bought some new hardware to work.

I'm also seeing some random reboots on my device, related to modem, and another issue about CPU frequencies staying on 1190 MHz constantly, which is a major problem.

I will ask Ganesh Varma to build for our devices as soon as possible, because my SSD is limited to 110 GB, so I can't have both sources together.

I am downloading the CM13 source right now to make new device trees from the beginning or fix the existing ones on GitHub.

We will see, as Samsung has done serious changes from older version of Android to the new one.

Thank you for your support!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Vherniel:
Im very sad on what happen to your PC.. And also good luck for CM13 I hope that every variant is working in CM13. Anyways.. Goodjob Nick :good::good:

Using latest version since it was released and didnt encounter any reboot, only the kernel frequency issue and a speaker issue (phone switched automatically to speaker mode when I answered to a call, not sure how it happened, I think it was related to proximity sensor).

With overclock yes, without no

The country runs at 1190Mhz above that will heat more
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] samiblm:
After 1 day using the latest version i can easily spot a huge improvement regarding smoothness and speed, i much appreciate the sound inhancement that became now as great as the stock rom, no more lag upon screen unlock or whatsoever, i used to encounter some gliches when using non build-in input apps such as google keyboard or others, and the phone freezed manytimes while rebooting, but until now nothing from this has showed up .. (THUMB UP)

-In the other hand, what I really reprimand is the disappearence of the option "apps defaut location" from under settings/apps/3 dots, and I looked for it everywhere but couldnt find it (does anyone have an idea how to set the external sd card as the default apps location without dbg and sdk ??)

-I also want to point out that the build-in weather widget is not operational same as the option "show weather" from under settings/notifications drawer (I know this is not a major issue but im just mentioning it hopefully someone got a quick fix or a work around)

Sorry for the long text, I just tend to be too much precise sometimes :)
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
For me, the weather widget works, also in notification drawer.

Regarding install location, take a look here, as a alternative: http://android.stackexchange.com/questions/43517/installing-to-sdcard-by-default

Run in terminal:

(0 auto, 1 internal and 2 external sd card)

pm set-install-location 0/1/2

EDIT:

[MENTION=6356102]samiblm[/MENTION] : if you want, i can make a small app with Tasker which ask you where you want to install everytime you are in Package Installer ( the menu after you click to install an .apk). The app would work like this: when it see that you are in Package Installer ( you want to install an app), a small popup appears and ask you where you want to install, you choose and then you can install.

[MENTION=5882401]Nick Verse[/MENTION] : Let me know if is ok to keep this post.

Alright. I've made a small app using Tasker which will show a popup with option to choose where to install the app you want. The app run in background and the popup appears when you are in Package Installer (when you want to install an app). I hope you'll find it useful as the setting regarding it is gone in latest release.

I have made a thread for this app. Please reply there regarding it:

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-j5/themes/app-t3481422

I called it Install Location. The apk is attached to this post.

To run that pm set-install-location commands we need root, so the app need root too because that.

Please read the below informations.

HOW IT WORKS?

Upon first run, it run su command to get root access. If you decline the access, the app won't work, so it will ask for su again after you open it again. If you allow the access, then it will turn a profile on which shows a popup to choose install location when it detect that you are in Package Installer. The Package Installer it's the trigger. You choose your choice, then the popup dissapear and then simply install the app you want.

NOTES

1) If you want to cancel the popup, just press back button (phone button).

2) If you want to stop this app from showing the popup, then simply force close it in settings.

3) If you greenify / hibernate the app, then it stop working.

4) There shouldn't be any battery drain.

5) BUG: when you uninstall an app, the popup will appear too since uninstalling apps is done by Package Installer too. I don't think there's any way to fix this, at least I don't have any idea.

6) The app should work on other phones/ROMs as long the command pm set-install-location is supported.

Dude, you are a life saver!!! Thank you so much for your efforts gentlman .. i ll let you know if the app is working fine in a minutes ..

However, i still want to know, if possible, why they needed to withdraw such an important and distinctive feature, was it interfering with something else or preventing the rom from running on full performance ?? ( [MENTION=5882401]Nick Verse[/MENTION] [MENTION=7138840]ganesh varma[/MENTION] :) )

And regarding the widget and weather stuff, it didnt work for me using an older version neither .. so I think it depends on the device variant (mine is sm-j500fn, what's yours ?? )

Thanks again to everyone

Edit: unfortunatly the app didnt work, and nothing pops up when I install other apps (root enabled and permissions granted) .. i will try the terminal commands later, hopefully it ll brings up something new
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I have J500FN too. I had troubles setting up the weather though, but somehow succeeded. Try to write your location by yourself and see if then the weather show up. That's how I did.

Regarding the app, it should work. I've tested myself and is working fine. Try to reinstall it. I'll make a new thread for the app at the apps section.

1. I like to share my opinion about latest build (20161012) had some minor issue, when i try to open camera app device going to reboot, i think its system issue.

2. Previous (20160930) build had some issue too, "GPS & Lagging or maybe heating problem" but other is good.

3. Also i try to flash (20160930) build on my device & then flash (20161012) kernel (Boot.img), Build. Prop & GPS .xml,

Now my device ruining perfectly:D, no lagging, heating, GPS problem or not any error:D.

Note: I make some copy paste (system file) from the build (20161012) to (20160930) due to nick some changes with audio mod or other:p. i am happy with it. Thank you nick verse for latest update.

Thanks..
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ganesh varma:
hi it could be mostly due to a wrong system partition size and also make sure that you have enough free space in internal storage. AFAIK in a block based update the system.img will be placed into RAM or internal storage and will be extracted into system partition during boot up. I'm building all the roms with the old fashion method i.e with the system folder which will extracted directly during the flash to avoid any such errors. Please wait till your variant gets the update. :)

Just flashed last build (cm-12.1-20161019-UNOFFICIAL-j5ltexx) on J500f, no problems with GPS reboots or Play Store.

But governors are stuck at maximum MHz besides powersave, not battery friendly.

UPDATE: governors are working properly, some how Devive Control only show max MHz, now all governors are working.

UPDATE: Encounter reboots with GPS at high precision (+Google Maps app), i've attached logcat

adb logcat *:E > android_logcat.log
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ganesh varma:
Don't even mess around with the PIT file it'll just corrupt your whole partition layout if you do so. Seems like we have wrong system partition size for your variant in our device sources,so that could be the issue. Give us the sizes of all your partions(System,Recovey,Boot,Data).

Seems like the gps reboots are caused due to the missing of com.qualcom.location.After discussing a bit with Nick i'll plan on making a fix via zip file or a whole new build. There are no random reboot issues,so please everyone make a clean install by following the steps mentioned in the OP.

Thanks.
