when I install this ROM on the A5F it boots to a black screen. I have done all the steps @MyGalaxy says to do but still not working. I am using TWRP 3.0.2-1
any help appreciated :)

Edit: boots now but the SIM will not work. I have a SM-A500F DUAL SIM

    Instructions to have everything working on non-FU variants

    Method 1
    1- Flash the Resurrection Remix ROM + GApps (and SuperSU if you need it)
    2- Download the fix below for your variant and push it to your device.
    3- Go to TWRP (press Vol+, Home button and power button)
    4- When you booted on TWRP, go to "Install" tab and select the fix you have downloaded and pushed to your device.
    5- Swipe to confirm flash, and reboot. All connectivity features should work fine.
    6- Enjoy!

    Connectivity Fix Files (Files will be added progressively when I get blobs for all variants)



    Method 2 (if the method 1 doesn't work on your device)
    1- You need to be on stock ROM, rooted and you have to install a root browser.
    2- Open the root browser, grant root access.
    3- Go to / and copy /firmware and /firmware-modem files to Internal Storage or SDCard, go to system/lib and copy libsecril.so and libsecril-dsds.so
    4- Go to TWRP, wipe all partitions except Internal Storage and SDCard.
    5- Once it's done, go to TWRP File Manager, and replace th /firmware and /firmware-modem + both ril libs that you previously copied.
    6- Reboot to system and enjoy :cool:

    Tutorial for a5f

    Tutorial for a5f by combining different tutorial from this forum

    STEP A : GETTING LIBSECRIL, FIRMWARE ETC

    1. Flash latest lollipop firmware via odin (check auto reboot and f.reset)
    2. After flashing, do a factory reset via stock recovery
    3. Reboot the phone, and let it startup. Not neccessary step but recommended.
    4. Download TWRP zip and superSU zip from here to external sd card
    5. Then flash TWRP (uncheck auto reboot)
    6. After pass show up in odin, unplug usb then hold POWER + HOME + VOL DOWN.
    7. As soon as the screen goes blank change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons.
    8. You should now see TWRP recovery
    9. Flash superSU zip, then reboot
    10. Install root file explorer (for example ES file explorer), grant root access.
    11. Go to /system/lib and copy libsecril.so and libsecril-dsds.so to external sd card
    12. Then copy /firmware/image files and /firmware-modem/image files to external sd card. Make a new folder to paste all that files

    STEP B : PREPARING THE ROM

    • Download latest RR rom, gapps, root file explorer apk
    • Download modified updater-script and 88sim (look attachment)
    • Open latest RR rom via winrar and while still in winrar, browse to /META-INF/com/google/android. You will see updater-script there. Drag the modified updater-script to the winrar browser then replace it
    • Copy modified RR rom, gapps, superSU, 88sim, and root browser apk to external sd card

    STEP C : FLASING RR

    • Wipe Data, Cache, Dalvik Cache and format /system
    • Install the ROM
    • Flash the Google Apps and SuperSU then turn off the phone.
    • Then boot to recovery
    • Go to mount, and check the system box
    • Then go to Advance->TWRP File Manager, and copy both libsecril from external sd card to /system/lib
    • Reboot to system, then wait. First boot will take some minutes.
    • It won't recognize SIM card or Wifi so that's fine just skip them
    • Install root file explorer, grant it superuser then copy the /firmware/image files and /firmware-modem/image files from external sd card to /system/etc/firmware
    • Reboot
    • Now, check your wifi and SIM are working or not
    • If SIM is not working, copy 88sim to system/etc/init.d and set file permission to 755
    • Reboot and enjoy
