I can confirm this optimum rom can be flashed over firmware j1!
I tried flashing via odin the OH7 base over the OJ1, but that didn't work. Have you flashed Optimum ROM over OJ1 straight away. If so, can you report on stability after a while?I can confirm this optimum rom can be flashed over firmware j1!

Tnx!
Nope
Do i flash the kernel and afterwards the ROM via ODIN? Coming from an unrooted german J1 here. Thanks.
Hmmm it seems I've bricked my brand new tab S2.. OJ4
Maybe someone could help me out asap.
810 on 5.0.2.
Steps I took
1. Root with odin and cf-auto-root
2. installed twrp from the google store (I'm afraid here it goes...)
3. Launched twrp and choose to backup my tab
4. Rebooted and hanged at the samung logo (black white 1st screen)
5. Didn't response to anything, continued to download mode
6. Decided to skip back-up (I've flashed so many times countless galaxy S model phones)
7. Flashed through odin the 810_oh7_fw_BigBot96.tar.md5 but it FAILS at 99%
8. Tab hanged at download screen.
9. Tried to reboot but now it says "An error has occurred while updating the device software. Use the emergency recovery function in the smart switch PC software.
10. Can acces download mode, can't turn it off.....
Please HELP

R.I.P Optimal rom
2016-02-26
Official development for OptimalROM has ended.
Reason: I'm pursuing new opportunities both in life and career that currently do not allow much time for Android. I'm starting a business that will have my dedicated time and attention.

Ya'll have been great and I couldn't have asked for a better group to talk and work with. I'll still be around as I still own the TS2. I'm only sorry I couldn't have had more time.
I'll leave the thread open so ya'll can talk amongst yourselves. Enjoy!
Cyanogenmod seems promising
