Please make firmware with j500h support. Add j500h support to the firmware.
it does have j500h support.
You also commented on a different rom which also has j500h support saying you couldnt install so you are doing something wrong with the installation.
How are you flashing these ROM's?
What was the last version of stock firmware you had?
And twrp must have aroma support the official twrp does not have this.
When flashing the rom it brings you into a different menu with a list of features you pick and choose from, does this menu come up when you flash?
And how are you doing the wipes in twrp? Are you going into advanced wipe and wiping system, data, internal, cache and dalvik?

Serenity is set normally, but there are only two choices of the device in the aroma, but there is no j500h.

Serenity is set normally, but there are only two choices of the device in the aroma, but there is no j500h. you have to boot separately for j500h.

noob need help

Hello... I would like your help. Im not into tech stuff that much and I really need someone's help.
I rooted my old phone (samsung j500fn) 1st with super su than I changed to magisk. Then I made rookie mistake, I've tried to update magisk in the way we update all other apps. Just update over app! I assume now that I should uninstall old magisk 1st then flash new one?
So, now I'm stuck in the I think bootloop... When i try to turn the phone on I got system recovery TWRP! This is my 1st rooting experience. I made bigger mistake then before. I didnt make recovery point! Its low memory phone, and I didnt have sd card for that phone in that time. So now I'm stuck and I really really need somone tech guy to help me with this. This can help you : "Recovery is not seandroid enforcing" this is what i got when i try to turn phone one, red letters uper left corner.
Please please please help me
 
Select either of them . Complete install . Then install j500H kernel . Any j500H kernel will do . I recommend to use RV kernel .

1. " Recovery is not seandroid enforcing " is not a issue to consider .
2. You can always flash newer magisk installer zip file on previous versions without uninstalling
3. Press volume button and power button untill your device turns off and turns on . See if you can boot to system ..
4. If process 3 doesn't work >>
TWRP >> GO TO REBOOT>>> PRESS SYSTEM
