I don't have this device but, the following area of the forum is specific to your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5
With that stated...
This is not an easy question to answer because there's a handful of Custom Firmware releases that's specific to your J5 (2015) variant device.
The following is the area where you can locate many of the Custom Firmwares and don't be afraid to ask for some member guidance within the one you choose to install. Just be sure to read that threads OP (OP = Original Post, which means Post #1) first to prevent from asking a question already answered in it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/development
There's other Custom Firmware released in other areas but, that one is, typically, where they all should be for this variant.
I wish you the best of luck!

Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. Have you resolved your problem yet?
Transmitted via Bacon
still unable to update firmware
i did everything like rooting and unrooting my device then also i am getting error like "Because your device is rooted so it can't be upgrade" like error pop_up i am getting
so may i know is there any solution to upgrade my device because after unroot also i am not able to update.
Unfortunately not a great deal of information exists for low-popularity devices such as this, and it's pretty hard to get your hands on official firmware too. During my searching on your behalf I've only been able to find other people in a similar situation, but no actual firmware. All I can suggest is that you keep searching and hope you come across something. Sorry we couldn't be of any more help.
Good luck!
I was installing Cyangenmod couple of months ago and i kinda messed up and my phone got softbricked and i didnt know what to do and the cell phone repair shop said he will charge $100 to fix it but i heard you can fix it for free i saw the post for the same problem but that phone had andriod 2.3 So can someone help me in un softbricking my phone and i dont have the backup files on my SD card do i tried looking for the andriod 4.1.2 rom but i couldnt find it so any help will be amazing
Hello,
Welcome to XDA.
Can you still boot to recovery? If so you can try the normal wipes in recovery and reboot, you can restore a nandroid backup if you ever made one, you can download another custom ROM for your model and try flashing it.
If none of that works and you can boot to download mode, you can flash the stock firmware, most Samsung firmwares are available at Sammobile.com and at samsung-updates.com, you will have to use your exact model number(located behind the battery), get the firmware for your exact model, it doesn't have to be 4.1.2, any firmware version will work as long as it is for your exact model number, it cannot be for another model number. If you want to root after restoring the stock firmware then you need to check if the firmware you find is rootable before you flash it, some are not rootable depending on your device.
When I search your model number on XDA, it comes up that your device is compatible with the T-Mobile custom ROMs, see if you can find one for download that doesn't have a dead link and flash it through recovery if you can get to recovery, dont forget ot get the right gapps to go with the ROM you find if you decide to go that route. The ROMs can be found in the forum linked below.

Ok the root I have managed now! The next question is what is the correct sequence for the installation of a clean Firmware without Verizon Bloat? I have download this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-ultra/general/rom-droid-mini-maxx-ultra-lte-fw-6-7-3-t3262555
Firmware but i dont know the install procedure., please Insiders help me with this!
I have to ask because I'm not a Android insider and with many abbreviations used in posts here'm not familiar
Or I may as well install Lollipop after I have the root successfully performed ??
I am completely new in this topic therefore ask this, everyone has to start sometime and is new and inexperienced in a theme.

Unless you have an unlocked bootloader I don't see how you will install Lollipop as I still haven't seen an official update to it. If you do have an unlocked bootloader your root would be super simple though.

In the link you provided, the installation instructions are there (but you have to click to show content).
Can you not find the instructions or which step in the instructions are you stuck at?
Plus, you would be in the "for Loked device" section.
We really need to know where exactly you are stuck. A few of us have done this already and are more than willing to help
I have a Samsung Galaxy s6 G920A and I Tried to downgrade to 5.1.1 firmware. After flashing with odin it gets stuck at the Samsung boot screen. It will not enter recovery. I can only enter odin mode. I can only assume that marshmallow has locked in the bootloader so it cannot be downgraded. I recently found out you can unlock it but I do not have a way to as long as I cannot boot the phone. The only thing I can think of is to get a flashable, threw odin for the marshmallow firmware but I cannot find it online anywhere. If there is anyone who knows how to make one or has one already that can be uploaded, I would love to fix my softbricked phone.

Try requesting for the file in your device Q&A which i posted earlier. Hopefully someone may have the file youre looking for
I posted the same thread in Q&A but haven't got an answer yet and I feel that this section is more suited to my question
I recently bought this phone of Amazon, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Doopro-Smar.../dp/B071HN52FQ as I lost my OP3
I have been trying to root it for few hours with no luck, there seems to be no mention of this phone on XDA or anywhere else
I managed to get adb driver to work after some struggle, then followed this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=2684210 but didn't work at linux stage
I tried to sideload flashable SuperSU but that gives me error 255
I have been able to unlock the bootloader via developer settings :0 so just need a compatible recovery any help is appreciated
So kinda stuck atm if anyone has any suggestions would be great
P.S I don't think TWRP or CWM recovery support this phone
