I thought I would have problems with VM and Odin, but I'll try this. Thank you, man.
You can use heimdall, either with UI (somewhat complicated) or from console.
If your device is in download-mode type:
Code:
heimdall flash --RECOVERY recovery.img
Replace "recovery.img" with the name (and probably path) of the image-file.
Heimdall should be available in all major distros.

I tried and it says:

Okay, I had an issue with heimdall, but I could fix it up with this post "http://www.bernaerts-nicolas.fr/linux/74-ubuntu/357-ubuntu-xenial-bionic-heimdall-compile-samsung" and I was able to install this ROM in my phone without installing Windows for that. Thanks!!

I know that the location quick settings issue was reported a page ago, since its being reported again its clearly not just an isolated incident. Try pulling the logcat on whats going on when you hit the panel?

Yes you should be able to flash 4.1 on top of your 4.2, as it will register as nothing more than an update to the system. You can, if you want, still do a wipe of your system. If you were switching from this rom to another, i'd say wipe.

Is there one for sm-j530f? :confused:
I do not see one available for the j5 pro (2017) in your threads nor do i see one available here in the dedicated to j5 (2015) only threads.

Time for you or someone using j5 pro (2017) to break out your compiling skills and make one for your device.

Is anyone else experiencing app crashes after the SELinux update? E.g. FakeStore, F-Droid Privileged Extension... Here's the log of the last crash:

https://del.dog/uguzubemar.cs

Anyway, I was also wondering if it's safe to downgrade this ROM just one version (before the SELinux update) by flashing the zip file using TWRP (without having to lose any of my apps and files ofc).

Thanks.

Should work (not tested).
If you are rooted, you can try to run
setenforce 0
as root in a terminal (e.g. adb shell) to switch to permissive until next reboot.
