My device went into a TWRP bootloop the moment I executed a Nandroid Backup.

Quickest/Easiest way to fix the bootloop problem was to simply flash the recovery (TWRP) package via ODIN. From Recovery, you can still hold down Vol. Down + Home + Power to enter "Download mode" - A quick flash of the TWRP package again, got me out of the boot loop and back into the system.

    -Status about CM-

    Hey, some of you have been asking if a AOSP based rom will ever come out or if I will ever make one for this device. I've tried this device a few times in my hand (mostly in samsung stores etc.) and find that is actually has quite some potential. Not only design wise but performance wise. Talking about performance. It uses the SD 410 right? Luckily enough many phones, including samsung phones with the SD 410 have CM roms and we all know how much advantage there is when working with snapdragon because of it's open source contributions. However here are the circumstances I would need to even start ROM development for this device.

    1. I need to warn you that I am doing absolutely no promise here. One of my weaknesses on XDA has been that I promised too many things that would later result a fail, leaving too many users behind that were hoping for something.

    2. I will only start the project when I have time for it. Usually "I don't have time for it" sounds allot like your every day excuse when you're too lazy to do something but in this case i'm too busy with other devices at the moment (Galaxy Tab S2 and S5 mini).

    3. I would need to own the device. I've had enough experience trying to build a ROM without having the device and believe me... it's nearly impossible. Now there are following options : 1. Funding together donations so I can buy the device myself. 2. Ship me the device if you live near.
    Be aware that I cannot ever guarrantee that the ROM will function bug free and stable.

    So to make it clear, I am still too busy with other devices at the moment. However if i'm free, I believe a CM port will work on this device fairly well. I will notice you when I have time and maybe then we can talk again.

    I think, I don't need custom aosp or cm based rom for this device, maybe debloated or de-knoxed stock firmware would be nice. If someone could port and make flashable samsung music for J5, that would great. The battery life with stock firmware, the standby and screen on time just amazing.

    Hello! I've made an rom like 1 week ago: Stock ROM Advanced. About Samsung music, it will come in next version :D

    @Force do you have github for ur rom ? I have seen an thread that say's cm rom support up to 10 multi touch, but you need to modify the kernel. Here is it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1384927.
    Hope you or anyone can make also custom kernel for j500. Id like to make too. But i lacked in resources.

    Hello! I have a github, however my rom is not built from sources, it is based on stock rom.
    I didn't know that kernel can be modified to support more fingers, but it should be related to hardware.
    I want to make an custom kernel as well, and I lack in knowledge too. But there are guides... :D it still hard though.

    There is an github regarding cm for J5: https://github.com/Galaxy-J5 . But it haven't been updated for a while.
