[Samsung Galaxy J5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MerwinTeo:
Hi today im gonna share a small list of J500F roms I tested on J5007 :)

Not all works but there are stable ones, some have bugs in home button, network (wifi or bluetooth or data), missing stock apps or system apps and last is the sim card problem we are facing on our unit.. Don't worry guys list will be updated if any of the bugs are fix or when im finishing trying other roms. Note read the developers post to know what are the bugs of the rom.. What i've mention is the bugs that we get for flashing other models rom

Method flashing the roms: (using Zonik's recovery supports Aroma installer)

1. Boot into recovery

2. Wipe cache, dalvic cache, data, system, internal

3. Flash rom then GAPPS

4. Go to wipe then wipe cache and dalvic cache or factory reset

5. Reboot system
