I know there is a dedicated SM-J700T (T-Mobile&MetroPCS) variant forum, although I am seeing a new releases for the j7 2015 exynos .
Would that not cover the 700T? Same chipset.
Cannot get a straight answer, and haven't tried flashing one... yet..

Hey buddy here's it straight... They do not work.
They randomly reboot after one min. They don't work at all, unless u flash one of our nougat kernels. Working on some ports right now. There was a huge porting issue and we almost got it. Some of the MM roms worked fine if you flashed mina kernel after installing. With nougat it's different, even slightly, so they don't work right.
Thanks for the reply.

I don't know if it's too early to ask this but stock marshmallow firmware for SM-J710FN is already there on sammobile. Is this what developers call sourcecodes, required for development purposes(kernels,etc) or do we still need to wait for some other source codes yet to be released by Samsung for SM-J710FN??

We may expect development because Samsung did released the source code. However, I think there aren't much developers who are using this device, as most developers prefers cheaper for better devices than this.
There is not much need as well. Our device is optimized pretty well and has best battery backup which one would need. We may even get the official Android Nougat.

If an exynos developer got it , it may get cm but cm on exynos is always buggy
what is the difference between SM-J710F and SM-J710FN? Are the roms compatible with each other?
I'm sure its a stupid question; I have just registered after lurking for a while.

I think same, my phone model is SM-J710F and it shows SM-J710FN in about section.
Hey guys, I am planning on getting the S8+ and Ive been looking around Xda for Roms for it but there are not a lot of them(stable neither) so my question is why are there not so many Roms and how is the future looking? I always root my phones and like to experiment, so should I buy it?
Thanks in advance, Ray
Which s8+ do you have?

I live in Germany so which ever one is sold here (european)
If you like testing ROMs go with OnePlus 5T, i'm also thinking about switching.
OnePlus 5T is a good choice if you want to use developer apps and sideload mods, tweaks, roms.. etc.
I think if you go with a Exynos processor S8(international variant) you should be ok, as is it has been rooted fully already.
Check this post out for a list of different S8+ variants.

The Snapdragon processor hasn't been fully rooted like the Exynos version. So make sure you get the right model for your location.

So if I get the Exynos version I can install custom roms like stock etc? Although I'm not seeig a lot of them in tjia forum to download and install...
Thanks again to everyone

Not that it matters in this case but your statement is not accurate. We do have root and it's stable. What we don't have is an unlocked bootloader which the Exynos version DOES have.

Quite so. If you didn't already do it you could head over to Cross Dev or the S8+ ROM forums and see what's available there.
Presently the vast majority are modded Touchwiz-based ROMs, which are quite excellent and offer great customization/battery life etc. If you are specifically keen on LOS-based (or other non-Touchwiz) ROMs there are very few under development, but it seems like quite a way to go yet.

Yes, that is correct!
i normally do it through TWRP and the guides i looked at shows its compatible but when i check the device list...
https://twrp.me/Devices/Samsung/
my model isnt listed on there. Will this still work? and any recommendations for custom OS i see that lineage OS isnt supporting this device
i was able to get TWRP.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...recovery-twrp-3-2-2-0-galaxy-a8-2018-t3818201
Anyone got suggestions for custom OS?
in case you guys were wondering.....i got a SM-A530W...

Same, its just the same as a530f
Just imagine as if your device was a530f and everything will work fine and there are some custom roms, just not on xda...
One is salimskiy rom which is oreo touchwiz (im using that right now)
Theres another one which is on the roms category of this forum, elite custom rom, but that one is outdated (7.1.1) and its made for a730f not a530f
Lel i was the one who tested mesa's 3.2.2-0 twrp and i have a530w
Is there any custom kernel that can allow overclocking on the J330FN Oreo?

Nope. It is highly unlikely that a custom kernel or even rom to be made for this device as no one is developing anything on it. The device has reached end of life considering it is a budget device after all.

No problem and i am aware since she helped make sampwned32 for the sm-j327t and sm-j327t1 I found the root method that was used on the s8 variant with a locked bootloader and brought it up and even tested the root method on the device and it worked. But a month later samsung released a new update that patched it. If it wasn't for ashyx converting the files from ARM64 to ARM this method would have never worked. Also after samsung patched the root method they only released one more security update and ended up cancelling the android oreo update for metropcs and tmobile after we was told our device would get it. Oh boy i was pretty pissed. Like come on samsung you could atleast unlock the device's bootloader and allow us to make our own custom roms which would be alot better and would be oreo based. It is sad how samsung forgot about us and didn't even bother to release a new phone to the metropcs and tmobile market in the budget area. The mid range J7 Prime got more love than this device did fr.

Yes it certainly did
If what I researched right both J7elte and J7e3g are variants of Galaxy J7 2015 SM-J700H model. Most ROMs I see here for J700H are made on J7elte variant. So can I flash those ROMs and TWRP on my J7e3g?
I am aware that there's already another thread with same question. But the guy claimed that he gets black screen when he flashes J7elte ROMs on his J7e3g. So I wanted to be completely safe about it all.
Any explanation will be much appreciated, Thanks!
