[Samsung Galaxy J5 Questions & Answers] ClownWorld:
I need to make this SM-J530F work again in a day, I've tried installing supposedly OEM Stock, because all custom roms have had issues, either terrible sound issues, lock due to aosp and samsung payment app missing. random semi bricks. I don't need this ****e right now. I hope someone can recommend a rom which wouldn't have any bugs, or help me install the stock OEM rom, which i then hopefully can MicroG, and OpenGapps, supersu.

I've tried two different files now through odin and they both failed. I'm not sure what's wrong, device is wiped, put in download mode and connected to odin. Blue checks out it seems to start. But ultimately fails. The firmware files were zip files, I tried chaning it to .tar, and tried loading in AP alone, and AP, and all the others, alternating between two csc files which were included inside the .zip.

Re partitioning is not on.

Twrp 3.3

SM-J530F

Odin 3.13

Here's what happens when I first tried to just use the AP, and then all the files inside the OEM ROM file.
