Hello fellow J5 users 
I have rooted my phone and I'm trying to get ViPER4Android mod working but I'm unable to do so. I tried searching forums here but our device doesn't have an forum page yet I hope the moderators/admins make one soon :angel: .
So far I've installed as instructed and tried troubleshooting as instructed too but nothing seems to work, the installation is breeze but the drivers for V4A don't install. The status is abnormal. Driver version is 2.3.4.0
I followed every instruction on ViPER4Android page for installation on Galaxy devices, they don't seem to solve my problem. I also tried other method i.e replacing audio_effects.config with a another config which worked on S6 Edge but that doesn't to seem work as well. So I've restored the original config. No worries here! :laugh:. I read somewhere this has something to do with kernel and SELinux status which is 'Enforcing'. There's no custom kernel available which has SELinux set to permissive. If anyone has got the V4A working on our device please help me out
Edit : I searched around forums and found a way get the V4A working on Stock kernel of Samsung J5 even if the SELinux Status is set to Enforcing. You will just have to flash a zip with a custom recovery (I used TWRP made by @CTXz) and Voila! This flashable will work on any device too (not fully sure though).
