[Samsung Galaxy J2 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ShaDisNX255:
Welcome! This guide is to help you debloat your Samsung Galaxy J2 Prime (G532 M/F/G/MT)!

But, before I begin, I should give a few warnings!

Background:

As us owners of the J2 Prime know, development for a custom ROM (either port or AOSP based) is not going anywhere soon. I think most recognized and experienced devs just see this phone, its specs and think "I'm not buying this thrash phone" lol

Not only are its specs thrash, the chipset has been known to be a pain to port ROMs over (Mediatek)

What's the next big thing? DEBLOATED ROMS!

Unfortunately, I don't have access to the software to create a flashable, fully debloated ROM (I do not have administrator rights, it is not my PC :v)

However, what I CAN create is a flashable zip to remove some annoying apps that you will most likely not need!

So, with that being said, let's get to the obligatory warnings :D

Warnings!:

* There are two flashable zips I am including. One that will factory reset your phone (100% recommended!) and one that will just eliminate your bloatware (not recommended, because some app information will still be stored in the /data partition)

* PLEASE CHECK THE LIST OF APPS REMOVED DOWN BELOW!!!!!

* I am removing apps that I don't need! Key word being "I". For example, I don't use Samsung's Gallery app because I use Google Photos, I have various devices and I need photos to be synced up between them (UPDATE: Since so many people use Samsung's Gallery, I've updated my scripts to keep Samsung Gallery and delete Google Photos. I'll just download it from Playstore). so by flashing this you are accepting my conditions. In other words, I get to choose what apps are being deleted. If you have a request of an app you don't want removed, you can easily search for the apk file on the internet or on Google Playstore. If you have a request of an app you want removed but is not included in my zip, and enough people request it, I can update my file (or you can update it yourself, if you want) to delete extra apps

* Since there are a lot of apps that I am removing, there's a big possibility that I may break something like a feature YOU may be interested in. Be warned that you may experience sudden FC or a feature you want not to work. Please report if anything that YOU use is not working so I can add it to the not working list. So far, of what I've used I have not encountered any FC or any bugs, but there is always a possibility that it can happen

* I can't stress this out enough, I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE, YOU ARE FLASHING THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK!

IF I ELIMINATE AN APP YOU USE PERSONALLY, I WILL BE ADDING A ZIP FILE IN POST #2 TO FLASH VIA TWRP. IF YOU HAVE AN APP YOU WANT ME TO ADD THAT YOU PERSONALLY USE, PLEASE COMMENT SO I CAN GIVE YOU THE APP TO DOWNLOAD

I WILL NO LONGER ADD ZIP FILES TO ADD APPS BACK DUE TO NONE OF THEM WORKING ON DIFFERENT FIRMWARES (THEY SEEM TO BE FIRMWARE SPECIFIC). IF YOU WANT TO ADD AN APP I DELETED, PLEASE SEARCH ON GOOGLE HOW TO ADD IT BACK

As the developers here would say it:

#include <std_disclaimer.h>

/* *
Your warranty is now void. *
* We are not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about flashing this zip file
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, and if
* you point the finger at us for messing up your device, we will laugh at you. HARD!
* */

With that out of the way, let's finally get started!

What you need:

1. A PC

2. The will to use the SEARCH function or search in Google when you run into a problem that may or may not be listed in this guide

3. Debloat_J2_Prime zip file (link below)

4. TWRP (link below)

5. Ashyx's file to remove decryption (highly recommended, link below)

6. The Super SU zip file (link below)(not necessary, you can also root with Magisk)

7. Your stock ROM already downloaded from Updato or Sammobile (not necessary but just in case anything goes wrong)

Downloads:

1. Samsung USB Drivers

2. Download the latest version of Odin

3. The latest firmware of your phone (Use google to search for it, recommended sites are Updato and Sammobile)

4. Debloated ROM (Script that will factory reset)

5. Debloat script ONLY (not recommended, but can still clear up some space!)

6. Download TWRP from the TWRP thread

7. Download ashy's "no-verity-no-encrypt_ashyx" file from TWRP thread

8. Download the SuperSU "SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip" file from this thread

STEP-BY-STEP:

(Make sure you have OEM Unlocked before trying this procedure out. To do this, you need to activate developer options by tapping on "Build number" 7 times located under Settings>About Device>Software Info. Then, go to Settings>Developer Options and make sure OEM Unlock is enabled)

0. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, read the warnings!

1. First you should flash TWRP. It's as simple as flashing via Odin the file containing TWRP. If you need extra steps and explanations of how to install TWRP, follow this thread: TWRP thread

2. Once you have TWRP installed, boot into recovery

3. If you get a prompt upon starting up TWRP to allow modifications, you should swipe to allow modifications. If you don't get any message, ignore this step

4. Flash the "DEBLOAT_J2_Prime_FactoryReset" file

5. Root via the method you want (flash SuperSU zip) or you can use Magisk

6. Flash the no-verity zip

7. You now have a fully debloated J2 Prime!

Let the phone boot, set it up and you should now be done!

You now have a much lighter J2 Prime with aprox. 2.9 GB of free storage! Even after the apps update!

Special thanks to:
