Does flashing the update need full wipe?

I really can't install my apps and my files again!

Is there any short way?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] jenslody:
If you update from Bootleggers pie no wipe is needed.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] amirizad_7436:
What you mean bro?

I use bootleggers pie right now.just download zip file and flash?? Without any wipe and all my apps and files will still in my phone??
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
Just flash the update, reboot to system, wait and that's it. No wipe necessary and no information is lost.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] garylawwd:
Hmmm weird I did the same with no trouble.

I remember didgeridoohan mentioning on the thread that some people were having issues and he found the problem so you might have to wait for a fix.

You can try delete the module in twrp file manager in data - adb - Magisk but im not sure if it will work
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] ThatZenon:
Minor bug in bootleggers 4.1 , ambient display does not work properly if you have turned on "directly ask for PIN entry" . When you turn off the screen it shows you lockscreen wallpaper+ clock+ PIN Entry buttons on lockscreen,(though they do not work even if they are showing).I am using J500F

Hi, someone can help me with microG instalation? I tried with gapps but ROM is very laggy. My phone is j500m
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
Maybe you've got wrong TWRP version, having wrong TWRP version usually ends up error 7. Try flashing TWRP from OP and try flashing the ROM again.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Holasoycris22:
you tell me how to update the twrp version?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Holasoycris22:
Well, because no one gave me a solution for error 7 in twrp, I found a solution, which is to unzip the rom, search inside this META-INF / com / google / android and you will get two files, open the file updater-script with notepad ++ (the program can be found in google), and within the program, delete all this "assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5lte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5lte" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltechn" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltechn" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltedx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltedx" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltedo" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltedo" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltekx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltekx" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5lteub" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5lteub" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltexx" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltexx" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ltezt" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ltezt" ||

getprop("ro.product.device") == "j5ylte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "j5ylte" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: j5lte,j5ltechn,j5ltedx,j5ltedo,j5ltekx,j5lteub,j5ltexx,j5ltezt,j5ylte; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + "."););"

DO NOT ERASE SOMETHING ELSE, after that, simply press the esc button on the keyboard and then remove the program, then compress everything unzipped from the zip of the rom, and then install it, if you did not understand it, you could do a tutorial with the video , of course, as long as the creator of the rom does not bother him, I feel that if my explanation was not the best, my English is bad.

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
Sorry for late reply, but here's how:

Download the TWRP from OP, then put it in your either internal storage or memory card, then boot to TWRP, then select 'install', then select 'install image' option, then locate your downloaded TWRP image and flash it as recovery (do not flash it as boot). Then finally reboot your phone to recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Holasoycris22:
Thank you very much for the answer, but in the end it turned out that the twrp was not the cause of the error 7

your question is a bit un-understandable .however , You have to remove the stock rom and install this ROM to make it work.

It also happens for me . However , i think it's because they are chromium based browsers . Because google chrome also gets hanged

Try reinstalling stock ROM using ODIN and flash twrp again .
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Wisdawms:
What I meant was: I heard that you have to have android 6 bootloader to be able to flash android 6-based roms, so would it work on my specific device if I have the mm bootloader? I know I have to remove the stock Rom by wiping data or whatever, I was just wondering if this Rom supports j500h (2015).

Hello can I do it now using [MODULE] ExSDCard Write Access Enabler ?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Wisdawms:
Alright I'm using it now and it's pretty smooth, only downside is that I can't move apps to sd card but that is compensated by the low size of rom and no bloatware.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] TheAngryGuitarist:
Maybe it's a Magisk 19 problem, because I had no problems with Magisk 18, but who knows, maybe there is another problem.

Full formating and clean reinstalling Rom fixed the problem. (The only fix).

Hey I'm trying to get substratum themes to work but I can't, did you pick Android pie or pie oxygen os? Can you walk me through the steps cause I keep getting errors when applying a theme. Does substratum work with the settings menu in this room or no?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
Select Android Pie, not anything Oxygen OS.

Anyway, what theme did you use?

What I did was to download substratum and its themes, then grant every permission Substratum asked (and especially the SU part). Then, select the theme, select Android Pie version (and DO NOT select any version; may cause system crash or error). Then select apps to be themed (I just select all), then tap the floating circle and select Build and Enable, then wait until it finished building themes. When SystemUI restarted and you're on lockscreen, restart your phone. Then after restarting your phone, go to Substratum's 'Manager' (one with square icon) then toggle 'Select to toggle all overlays' then tap the floating circle and then re-enable by tapping 'Enable selected'. Lastly, wait until the SystemUI restarts again (if not, you have to restart SystemUI by yourself). That's what I remembered, if my memory serves me right.

I used Valerie and PitchBlack and both of them works, but since I've had bad experience with Substratum, especially bad battery drain, constant updates, constant conflicts at GApps/MicroG, Magisk and other apps, more hassles and inconsistencies, I decided to ditched them out.

BTW, I moved on to another device by another brand.

OT Endnote: <rant>Thanks Samsung and the store where I bought my J500H for not selling genuine batteries and bad services overall. Instead, they keep recommending me on buying FAKE batteries.</rant>
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] Wisdawms:
Thanks, but when I build and enable does systemui Auto restart or do I have to do it myself? And when I do that I see no changes to the UI, is that supposed to be after the restart and everything?

BTW I used the same theme as the one you mentioned, Pitch Black.

What device did you get BTW, and are you comfortable with it?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
1. It will auto-restart SystemUI after building theme. If not then just restart your device.

2. Maybe. Sometimes it will, sometimes, nothing happens. If nothing happens, I just go to substratum's Manager, toggle the upper switch to select all themed apps then re-enable them and manually restart SystemUI.

3. An Android One device, Mi A2 Lite. So far, I'm mostly comfortable with it, mostly due to having stock Android out from the box. But few regrets though, having non-removable battery, like most of the phone nowadays; and also having to read other users comments before updating OS/patch (because of what I've read about Mi A2's January update fiasco).
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] jenslody:
There's also Bootleggers for Mi A2, if I remember correctly.

Codename jasmine_sprout ?

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] HMMDR27D53-3002:
Nope. I've got daisy_sprout (Mi A2 Lite). :)

BTW, a lot of thanks for developing custom ROMs for J5 (and also other developers for J5). This, along with unofficial Validus, LineageOS and other AOSP-based ROMs, really helped my device went strong for 3.25 years.

I'm new to this ROM so I have kind of a dumb question, does updating mess up my current settings or interfere with anything? And does the download size also represent the install size? Meaning that will updating add another 470 mbs to my storage?
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] jenslody:
If you update from a previous version, it should not be a problem (I do it quite often, much more often, than I provide updates).

The 470 MB are in fact added to internal storage, but you should be able to delete the zip from the OTA-app after updating.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] garylawwd:
I think it works once you DONT have an external SD card formatted as internal.

Once formatting the SD card it does some funky things to the file manager.

From what I noticed thats how it is anyway
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] TheAngryGuitarist:
Weird, because my SD is external.
[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] garylawwd:
Really? Same with me and I just tested it and it works perfect whereas last week (before my SD card died :( ) I has my SD setup as internal and I had to use a different file manager to delete.

What exactly are you trying to delete? Is it files or photos or something else? Or is it just everything in general.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] jenslody:
I just uploaded a new build to my server, which fixes the home-button-does-not-wake-up-device-issue and the not reachable sim-settings.

The rom now comes with a preinstalled browser.

The camera/flashlight issue is not fixed: randomly the flashlight/torch does not work from quick-settings and the camera crashes, sometimes both work (mostly after a longer up-time of the device), but the camera always takes square photos, while the video-format is okay.

Third party cameras work (at least OpenCamera a real good camera from F-Droid).

Many optical updates: lots of the great Bootleggers themes and new real cool icons for the QuickSettings).

Unfortunately the launcher has changed, because lawnchair (still alpha) caused massive lags on some devices, so it was (temporarily) removed in favor of a modified launcher3. Be aware, that all launcher settings have to be redone.
​

But as you know (if you have read the OP) the status of this rom ist still testing, so such changes can happen, even if nobody is really happy with it.

But still a rom, that works surprisingly stable on our old, small devices, I use it on work every day and never had any trouble with it.

[Samsung Galaxy J5 (2015) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] dankfrank33:
all thats left is the framework modifications(or stuffs in bootleg dumpster in simpler terms) as the rom is still in test build

and yet im quite impressed on how the developer managed to make a test rom near bugless on a 3 year old-ish device and is more usable as a daily driver

my only gripe with the rom(or any aosp-based rom in particular) is the ram management. i dont know if its on how it handles processes but it gets super laggy when it has below 300mb free ram(most touchwiz roms(not stock) tend to have better ram management due to kernel modifications) since im more of a power user in terms of using the phone daily(multitasks 3-5 apps at once). but its mostly a personal preference but overall its doable if i dont use it that much

also +1 to the dev :laugh:
