I haven't try it myself, but Magisk + Magiskhide props config seems to work, as said by bootledgers deb.
If you don't want download and Pip feautures, just download latest apk ( from apk mirror for example) and an error will give you the latest version for rooted devices

 

[MBechirM]

Guys does netflix app work on this rom? Can it be downloaded from playstore??

You need to pass SafetyNet for it to work so you have to install the latest Magisk version + This Module by @Didgeridoohan

 

[jcruzm76]

Do you know what is the latest ROM for the J500M that works without problems or system lag? I'm using Lineage 15.1-20180427-NIGHTLY-j5lte but it has started to fail closing apps and had lag.

Not true at all. I have explained a lot of time here as well as on other threads. The Play version wont work without Safetynet. But they have another version compatible with such devices. Install it from Play, then when you open it, it will prompt to go to website and download a compatible version. Go there, select arm and install the apk after you uninstall the Play version

Same device like yours j500f. Well I have flashed the rom and going to post log cats for gms stopping for Mind the gapps.
Steps to produce this.
1. Download latest lineage os 15.1 build j114.
2. Download latest MindTheGapps package. Selected zip is MindTheGapps-8.1.0-arm-20180610_023943.zip.
3. Wipe/Format data, cache, system, dalvik, internal.
4. Flash lineage and wipe dalvik and cache. Reboot.
5. Now flash MindTheGapps and reboot.
6. Try adding google account.
< Error Gms has been stopped. >
The log cats are provided here

Update :
As told by many other users and successfully tested by me. Aroma package is working flawlessly.
Steps to set up GApps Aroma Installer.
1. Download open_gapps-arm-8.1-aroma-20180706.zip
2. Now flash it and choose the apps you want to install.
3. The setup will crash and bring you back to TWRP. This is because some apps are not compatible with the device.
4. Now select minimal apps which are not available on play store.
5 If TWRP restricts you from rebooting the phone. Remove battery and restart.
6. It works like a charm.


Other information
Device : j500f
Lineage : 15.1-20180623
Kernel : 3.10.108-g35d96397f24

Tell me if you need more information and logcats.
Press Thanks button if I helped.

Yes, but that version doesn't have download option, and it doesnt heve the latest feautures like the new UI and Pip video. And it will never be updated.

JF00N - gapps not working on J53 build from 2406

Were you running mm bootloader b4 installing?
Twrp 3.2.1 for j5 Oreo?

I'm currently using j500fn with current 24/6 and open gapps arm 8.1 aroma ver. Works fine. If you continue to have issues try feel free to pm me

Also if you want a copy of the last good stable build send me email, I'll send it to you. I don't see it on the server at the moment. 25/5

Hi all,

I have J500FN. I trying to install this ROM and gapps.

ROM J53_20180624 install successfully and things are working.
I am trying to install gapps as well. However, with aroma ( 2406 and 0607), it just do not boot after installing.
I tried pico version as well. with this one, it boots easily. But "google play service" keeps on closing.

I am installing gapps, because I want to use below functionalities
1. Sync contacts and calendar with default apps or gapps from accounts like google or yahoo etc
2. to be able to use google keep and drive to sync my notes and documents.

Others I am happy to use apks, if needed.

I found one article on shadow53, stating how to sync calendar and contacts.(Sorry I am not allowed post outside links) But this also needs working "Google play services".
It provides its own version called MicroG. But I am not sure how safe is it and how to check if this works with LineageOS.

Appreciate any help, in any method that can get these functionality running.

Please note, I am not a usual tweaker of the phone with ROM or other programs. Trying this as Samsung stock was too heavy and no space left and becoming too slow.

Arundeep

Is microG safe?? Its a lot safer than Google as Google keeps all your info. Microg is an alternative to play services and lineage have there own "microg for lineage" on there website I believe. What version of gapps are you trying to install? And are you rooted with Magisk and what version?
If it is aroma gapps on the new Magisk 16.6 than it probably won't work as a few changes have been made to the latest Magisk release and Samsung phones are having trouble booting if its an aroma rom or gapps.
Try pico gapps from opengapps.org

The aroma installer crashes because certain apps are not compatible with the device.

"The Play version wont work without Safetynet"
that's why i gave a method that passes SafetyNet Fixing Many apps not just Netflix

Try pico gapps from opengapps.org

Thanks. I realized, I did not provide detailed info. As I was only using opengapps, I did not think of other. I used opengapps arom from 6 july and pico from 6 july. They get install. But after aroma phone does not boot and with pico, google play services just keep on failing. I followed this below procedure.
1 wipe - factory reset, system, cache, internal, dalvik
2 flash rom
3 wipe dalvik/cache
4 flash gapps
5 wipe dalvik and cache
6 reboot

Update: I tried to install MindTheGapps 8.1_arm_20180610. It installs and system boots up. But same as opengapps pico, google play services keeps failing.

No, I do not have any magisk on my phone. Not that deep into this stuff (yet) . I searched about microg for Lineageos, but seems it is the other way out. LineageOS for microG. But as per their documentation, they do not support J5. Not sure if there is some unofficial support for it like this one

On the other hand, is there some way and some know "google play services" that can be installed on this ROM without installing all the other opengapps stuff?

Another options for me is that I need to sync contacts with google account and have calendar sync with google account. is there a other way to achieve that without google play services?

Update 1:

I tried to install MicroG from NanoDroid-microG package. MicroG installs, but it needs signature spoofing support. But the system patch-script that is suppose to enable it fails because this ROM is odexed!
Then I installed Magiskv16.0. and then nandroid MicroG zip. It installed fine.
But the signature spoofing file still fails, giving the same reason that ROM is odexed.

Update 2:
I installed flashed xposed and installed xposed.apk from https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811.
Installed module FakeGApps on xposed.
I modified the config for Nanodroid-microG to install google sync adapters and flashed it again.

Now I can add google account in Contacts. But it still does not sync contacts
There is something still missing, as when I tried to add account in Calendar, it asks again my gmail account. When I provide details, it complains that this account exists, but there is no options to use existing account and sync contacts and calendar

Anybody got it working?

 

[Adicandra220]

I try this rom and my signal cant 4G stil 3G or H+ ;( anyone know? How to fix this?

 

[cel.junior]

Hi there, I dont recall read this before here or. In any other place. Then I will ask, some appl icons disappear after a reboot, Is this happening with any other?
