:mad: how is that possible?.. Have to done all the wipes (except micro SD and USB otg)? Which gapps did u install ? Install pico gapps.. It comes with less MB. Or nano ..

If you have done all of the above then use ''link2sd" app to wipe dalvik cache and all other cache which consumes lot of memory sometimes and use "recently" app .. Both app available in playstore

[MENTION=4471434]#Henkate[/MENTION], [MENTION=7220768]ililaoban[/MENTION], I fixed it. I copied /system/usr/keylayout/sec_touchkey.kl's key code to /system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl the key code was "key 254 APP_SWITCH" without quotations. That was a quick fix without using stock generic.kl

For the other models having the same problem on buttons try looking to these files and copy the specific key of sec_touchkey.kl to Generic.kl

Would you take a screenshot with the free RAM and also cached RAM (press the menu and choose cached processes).

Google Play Services is probably the biggest RAM & battery eater, followed by Facebook. Some useless services of Play Store and Gplay Services can be disabled with MyAndroidTools, DisableService or through init.d. Then the RAM and battery usage of these will be decreased. Maybe I'll include an init.d which disable some services.

Personally, i'm not using GAPPS, but if I do, then I use microG (check my signature) which use about max 10mb RAM. Compare that to GPlay Services!

My phone is able to run at the same time Naked Browser, Skype, Whatsapp and a Chinese game named Naruto (which use about 300mb RAM, depends on how much free ram there is). One day, all these were running in background for ~30m , and when I checked the phone, not even one of them was closed.

I didn't experience lag, even if there was low free RAM.

Thank you!

This ROM I have had running for 6 days. All good until this morning when it just crashes and won't reload.

Had to reinstall everything

Any reason for this ?

John
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Can you say what crashed? Give more details.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] johnhux7:
It was the play store that crashed.

I don't have the phone myself I have given it to my girl friend to use.

Gives me the best of both worlds as is still get to test.

She said it was working fine when she got into the bus, she got off half hour later. And it said play services was not responding then crashed and went into TWRP.

I tried to dirty flash RR back on but when it restarted it still had the same problem.

I then did a full advanced wipe and reflashed.

The phone had been running since Saturday with no problems before.

I have advised her that it might be worth restarting the phone every couple of days
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Latest release has a bug. When GPS is on and is being used by apps (e.g. Google Maps), Google Play Service will keep crashing until GPS is turned off. I still didnt find a solution. Some guy said that if you use Device Only mode at GPS, the Google Play Services wont force close.

It might be a toolchain or optimization flags issue, i dont know yet. I have to build and test. Im also thinking to revert all latest commits made by Nick to see if the problem will be gone.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] johnhux7:
Thanks for your reply.

I'm not sure if she had gps going on her phone. I did turn it off when I installed the ROM for her.

I know that some apps turn it on it she may have used it at some point.

I will check

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Hi, I have some crackling noises in media sound (nothing in ringtones or alarm), it's permanent in some apps (Piano tiles) and come and goes in others (Music, Jango Radio, Podcast Republic). Am I the only one having this problem?

P.S. it's not a hardware problem (tested with earphones and speaker & didn't have the problem in last build)

The picture says it all. See baseband. I didn't downgrade at all. Henkate! I am gonna try your rom soon :laugh::good:
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] forimbajosh:
How did you do it?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] KingRaheel:
Take cm boot.img and any 6.0.1 boot.img. Unpack both in separate folders. You will get 2 folders namely ramdisk and split_img in each. Open split img folder of both the extracted boot images. Now the easy part. Simply copy the "boot.img-dtb" file from 6.0.1 and paste in cm. It will prompt for replace, hit yes!. Repack, copy in cyanogenmod rom, zip and flash. :good:. Don't forget to rename the new image before copying in cm directory.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I'm sorry for reply.

I don't really know what you mean by cracklings, but did you have same problem in previous release? Also, please read the rest of this reply.

Tomorrow I will revert all commits made by Nick regarding media codecs/sound and some others until the point where there wasn't any problem (with previous release) and then I'll build it to see if the Google Play Services or the problem you mentioned persists. If it still persists, then it might be toolchain or flags issue.

Probably next update will be last one since RR abandoned the development for 5.1.1, but I may update in future if there'll be important changes on cm sources (like security etc.).

After I finish with RR, I wanna build other ROMs like XenonHD (it support layers) or something else. I wanna try AOSP too, I'm really interested in this one because I had AOSP 4.4 on my previous phone and it has been great.

I may also try to build my own custom ROM based on AOSP/CM features which I would use.

I'm not sure yet which version to pick: 5.1.1 or 6.0.1, but lollipop is still great and rocks.

EDIT: I've made a poll here.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] saedlar93:
Hi [MENTION=4471434]#Henkate[/MENTION], every high pitch note in the sound/music generates a white noise with it, I didn't have this problem with the previous RR build or with CM12.1

Thank you for this ROM and for the future ones ?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] johnhux7:
Henkate u added OTA into this ROM.

I'm not asking for me as I don't even have the phone anymore.

I'm not asking for an EtA but will there be any ?

Or have you now moved into something different ,?

Happy Christmas btw

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Yes, there will be new update after I fix play services force close.

I'm currently trying to build OmniROM 5.1.1, but i won't publish it if I manage to build it successfully and if it works, not before I finish with RR.

Happy new year!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] paulo boë:
Thats good news about the OmniROM, it is understandable that you wont upload it until rr is as you want it to be.

You too happy new year!!!!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] johnhux7:
Happy new year to you also.

I think that it's really cool the work that your doing for this J5.

You & Nick & Team have changed what was just an old Samsung phone into something really cool.

I have got rid of my J5 I had the chance to swap it for a was broken Nexus 5. I couldn't pass on that opportunity.

I still keep my eye in with what's going on, on this thread.

Nice one guys

Happy new year

[MENTION=4471434]#Henkate[/MENTION] will the next update be the final? :)
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I think yes. But I have to get rid of Gplay services force close. I'll also add some changes to the kernel.

I haven't worked on RR since some days. I lost some days trying to build AOSP/Omni 5.1.1.

And I'm also working on a Lollipop kernel for Crapwiz. I wanna see how far can go Crapwiz, but it'll never beat CM anyway :D

Thank you for your comment!

a quick update

Hello!

Just wanna let you know what ive been doing till now.

I have been working on a kernel for stock Lollipop 5.1.1. It has many features (including security fixes and tweaks for performance and battery) and it kinda improved the stock Lollipop. I can see an improvement, both in battery & smoothness.

I kinda finished with adding the features on that kernel for now. Next thing ill do is to add all the changes to 6.0.1. Then ill add the features to CM kernel and RR will have all that features too.

So, after i finish with with the kernel, i will resume to RR bug (play services force close). Once i fix that, i will release the kernel for CM & stock (5.1.1 & 6.0.1) and then ill release the new RR update.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Mr. A:

#Henkate will you try bringing Oxygen OS to our devices?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I dont know if its possible to build for other phones since i see only oneplus branches on the github and also i couldnt find Oxygen OS for other phone than oneplus. Also, i have no interest in it since its basically Cyanogenmod. I think i rather make my own ROM based on Cyanogenmod with the features i use, but im not sure anyway.

Regarding music files, i still didnt take a look at the logcat posted by Mr. A.

The issue could be the optimization flags used in building the ROM or the changes made for sound/codecs by Nick.

I still havent built RR to test it without some changes from github because i have worked on the kernel.

I still made some changes to stock 5.1.1 kernel despite my last post. Tomorrow ill apply all the changes to stock 6.0.1 kernel and then apply recent changes to RR kernel. Ill also need to make sure that it will work on all models and that WIFI will work on any baseband.

So, once im done with this, then comes the important RR bugs: Google Play Services force close and the music bug.

You can also use CatLog app from Google Play Store.

I didnt know about this.

But if i delete it, then the other models with NFC wouldnt have it and i would have to delete and re-add everytime... So, i wont remove that. It doesnt cause any problem even if you dont have NFC.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
You have to take logcat with PC (through terminal) so I can see what happen when the phone gets rebooted. I couldn't find anything in the logcat taken with app.

But I see that you have Viper4android. What else do you have? Xposed modules?

Reinstall the ROM and see if the problem persist, without any mod.

You're the first one saying about this (latest release).
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
I only have Viper4Android, i used it before in Cm 12.1 by Nick and it worked fine (no reboots)

I will try to reinstall:o

---------- Post added at 08:55 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------

So you mean I have to take a logcat while my phone reboots
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
You must use PC to take that kind of logcat. Power on the phone and start the logcat after phone booted. Then keep the logcat running until you get reboot and stop it when phone boots after reboot.

Try also to reinstall. Some change you've made may cause this reboot. I didn't have any reboot with latest release and other people didn't report this neither.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Amarius1:
No reboot here either! Rom is fast, smooth and stable and everything works oustanding. Had it for almost two weeks now and I have nothing to complain about! Great job, Henkate!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
Ok I will do it:)

but I have a question Henkate, should I change the entropy settings in Kernel Auditor to Read 100% and Write 100% or will it cause instabillity
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I have no idea. I didnt play with the settings.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
Maybe because I played with the settings (only entropy) it keeps rebooting(unlikely)
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Perhaps you can test after reflashing :D

And I dont know how to continously take a logcat.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
I have forgot to tell you -.-

You have to enable USB debugging from Settings > Developer Options and also other ADB option if there is any (i dont remember right now).

Once you start the logcat, it will log continuosly until you stop it (ctrl+c).
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
so which line do i have to enter in cmd to start a logcat and i already had usb debugging enabled and still my device was undetected
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Your phone must be on (booted).

If you type:

adb devices

and it doesnt list your phone, then you cant take logcat.

Do you have Samsung USB Drivers installed? If not, then install them.

If it recognize your phone, then write:

adb logcat > rr_logcat.txt

After this, it will start logging continuously and you can stop it by pressing CTRL+C. Let it log until phone reboots and stop it when it booted.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
So I must run a logcat and then stop it when it reboots?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Start the logcat, wait until the phone gets the random reboot, let it boot and then stop the logcat.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Zenoxe:
So start the logcat and it will continue monitoring while it is randomly rebooting, right?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
Yeah.

But ADB must recognize your phone to be able to start logcat.

I'm sorry, but I'll stop replying regarding this. I already told you how to take the logcat and also gave you guides. I don't want my thread to be cluttered with posts about how to take a logcat. Perhaps it's my fault for not mentioning in second or third post about how to take a logcat. On the other hand, you can find such informations by searching on Google.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] #Henkate:
It won't help.

In first release, there wasn't any Play Services force close after flashing the zip for GPS fix.

There are two possibilities:

1) Something is wrong or missing on sources. I'll have to check if everything from GPS fix zip is on sources too.

2) Toolchain or optimization flags issue, which I doubt though.

Once I publish my kernel for stock 5.1.1 & 6.0.1, then I'll resume to RR.
