Problems I am facing:-
1.The Phone doesn't vibrate. Not even in Vibrate mode.
2. The screen never turns off automatically. I have to use the power button every time.

1. You probably set vibration intensity to 0 in settings
2. Check if you didn't set screen timeout to 10 min in settings or you enabled "stay awake" in developer settings

Other possible reasons:
- You installed any 3rd party app which cause these problems
- You flashed anything else
- You have xposed modules installed

else make a logcat. I don't own a J5 device, so I can't help without logcats. Also tell more details like device variant etc.

My phone is j500fn but when I am installing this rom (or any other rom which checks for phone model) it does not match my phone with any model and aborts the installation. So I had to edit install script to remove those checks and adjust some settings (like boot image assigning) manually which was a pain with v2, because I am not good at install scripts and that one was more complicated than v1.. Could you point me to the files on my phone I have to edit to make my phone recognisable again?

I guess you're using an old TWRP version or a TWRP version without aroma support. Try this one and compatibility check will pass.
It's a bad idea to edit ROM's script to bypass compatibility check as it is necessary to match the correct variant for its drivers (e.g. J500H RIL) and kernel. Also to prevent people flashing ROMs on their device although its not meant for it.

Thank you! Will try another recovery when v3 is released. BTW thank you for your effort - every phone's feature works perfectly.
