Hello Team,
I recently purchased a new Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016) few days back. After the initial settings, I got a new ROM OTA update. However, I being a true Android lover tried Rooting my J5 (2016). However, the link that I used did not worked and now my Device status has changed from 'Official' to 'Custom'.
EDIT - The above Issue has been Resolved since I flashed STOCK ROM that changed my Device Status back to "Official". However, a new issue has been cropped up now.
You can take a look at the current Software Info. that would give you an insight onto the current OS that is installed on the device after the flashing of STOCK ROM which I downloaded from Sam Mobiles.

and this:
Here is another screenshot that tells you the exact error which I receive now whenever I try looking for Software Updates manually.
I want to know what could be the issue here since earlier the Device Status changed to CUSTOM (when I tried rooting the device). However, when I downloaded the STOCK ROM from SAM MOBILES and flashed it properly through ODIN, this is the new error that is troubling me.
NOTE: After flashing the STOCK ROM, I did not perform any kind of: Data Wipe or Cache Wipe.
Can that be creating this error here? I don't think just because I did not Clean Wiped my Cache and Data could be the reason behind this issue. However, still I am looking forward to hearing some response from the official developers on this.
Thanks and regards.

I've spent the last two days trying to figure out how to flash Omni 4.4 on my Wave S8500 device, but unfortunately, the system becomes unbootable once I use firmware 09.09.2014 and newer. Assuming that I'm not the only person experiencing this (search for "i tried installing this rom 8 times but every time successfully installed but when choose reboot system reboots but stucks on «samsung wave 2 s8530» showing boot screen" in the comments below this YouTube video), there seems to be a deal-breaking bug in later ROMs that makes the phone stuck at the "Samsung Wave GT-S8500" boot screen with no TWRP recovery accessible. Both Turko CFW 10.2 and Omni - 15.08.2014 are, however, working fine for me.
Here's what settings I use when flashing Omni with Multiloader:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then I follow the installation procedure step-by-step with no issues.
And this is what I get after system reboot…forever.
Any help is appreciated!
BUMP. Any tip what else should I try?
Ok, I made a video (about 20 mins long) about me trying to flash Omni 4.4 on my phone. I hope it'll be helpful (and hopefully enough to tell what the hell's going wrong).
youtube.com/watch?v=Hztt6749XJk (Installing Omni 4.4 on my Wave S8500)
Update: fastbooted the rom and my issues were resolved. Had to root with cwm.
The official release of MIUI7 on the MiPad was today. I flashed it.
to date issues I'm having:
The lockscreen doesn't want to open. I have to open by pulling down the status bar and selecting settings.
I can't get google play to recognize me. I've done everything suggested everywhere.. wiping data, cache, trying to update .apks, rebooting, blah, blah, blah...... won't work.
Can't get it to root...
I can't get the local backup to make a backup, but it did let me restore a backup I had made with an sMIUI rom.
One of the new features is locked apps won't show up in the recent apps screen. Well, not for me. I locked my email and tested it. Still shows up in recent apps. grrrr.
I did flash TWRP without issues.
so anyway, the music interface looks good. Too bad it's all in chinese....
I'm going back to cMiui7 5.8.10.

and no security center or theme manager (just wallpaper), for those wondering... surprise.. surprise... surprise!
If anyone wants to try it, I uploaded the rom to devhost.

antutu and deskclock.apk
I have attached the deskclock.apk file for anyone that's interested. It contains an alarm, stop watch, and timer. Use at your own risk.
Okay so since my last thread I decided to try updating my phone again after over a year being stuck on 4.4.4. I ran into the same problems. So I decided to take a shot installing a custom rom with the procedure of:
1) Installing latest firmware 18.6.A.0.182 which bootloops on my phone.
2) Updating the bootloader.
3) Installing the recovery according to the rom (twrp)
4) Wipe System, Data, Cache & Dalvik
5) Install ROM
6) Install open gapps
7) Finish!
So far I have tried:
CyanogenMod 13 6.0.1,
LineageOS 14.1 7.1.1
OmniRom 7.1.1,
They all have the same issues, the WiFi doesn't work (sometimes SIM isnt detected with OMNI) else everything is fine. I was actually surprised how optimized they were. credz to devz

If I turn the WiFi on it instantly goes off on Android 6 and it appears to "load" briefly on Android 7 before turning it off.
The MAC adress for the WiFi is also unusual it displays as "02:00:00:00:00:00"
Since I'm unsure if I'm doing something wrong myself or my phone is faulty I didn't want to report any bugs.
If anyone has any idea how to get my phone back running I would really appreciable it!
Apart from Stock Sony 4.4.4 of course!
Thanks for your time!

HELLO THANK YOU FOR THE REVERT BUT I GET A BIG FAIL POP UP WHEN TRYING FLASH STOCK ROM VIA ODIN attached screenshots plsssss help me ! Am I doing anything wrong while flashing let me know .
Hey Guys !
It's been a long time since I left Android mods and a lot has changed since 2015
I managed to lost both the IMEI from my cousin Samsung A12(dual SIM) after tried this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/installing-twrp-and-linageos.4334465/ .
The fault it's on me and not on the guide, I lost the backup file.
I managed to get until the last step before flash the Lineage OS from ADB Sideload.
I format everything and then i couldn't make a connection with the ADB sideload and tried to get back to stock firmware with ODIN.
After flash the firmware i lost both IMEI.
Things I tried :
~ Clean install with ODIN (from the guide)
~Tried to change the IMEI with different apps with root
~Right now I'm trying to install every possible ROM from this site https://samfw.com/firmware/SM-A125F/COS

All replies are welcome !
Best regards,

I thought MediaTek will change but its still the same pain in the ...
EDIT
I managed to get back both IMEI with this version, A125FXXU1AUC3 .
Just to help any other with the same problem.
Best regards,
Leon
Deleted but another alternatives is the downgrade or flash android 10 CP with the last update (This only works with binary 1 firmwares)
In my opinion is so stupid this bug/error and I tink the Knox 0x1 affects this problem (All firmwares with no imei problem has the secured by Knox splash) but is my opinion
