Samsung Galaxy J5 - Any plans on developing PA for this device?

[kyle_morgan]

Hi there,

I own a Galaxy J500FN and have been unsuccessfully searching the web for a custom rom for my device.

I have used PA on both my S4 and S4 mini and would be very glad (so would many others) if somebody could dedicate some time on working on a build for this device?

It currently ships Lollipop 5.1.1 out of the box.

There is no CWM Recovery build for this device but there is a TWRP Recovery Build that CTxz has kindly developed for us.

I am more than happy to flash experimental builds onto my device to help develop a custom ROM for it.

Thanks a lot!

Kyle

P.S: As many others have found, all root methods currently known for this device will trip the knox security.

No plans as we don't dev for devices we don't own or have access to. It is not on our radar at all, as with most Samsung devices.

@Pirateghost i can provide you all the files of j5 that you needs.

And what exactly does that do for us? That doesn't put a device in a developer's hand and they have ZERO way to test it. We know nothing about the device and we don't care to. It is not on the radar, it is not in the cards....

NO.

Not going to happen.

Please realize that developing for a device isn't easy. Even well documented ones bring along lots of hiccups along the way. There is no way in hell that we will take on a device request for a device that we don't own or plan on ever owning.

Here's a little FYI for you: we prefer Nexus devices or devices where the manufacturer/OEM is willing to allow/support bootloader unlocks, roms, development.

My advice to you: Learn how to bring up the device yourself, and build unofficials for yourself. This site was founded on being a resource BY developers FOR developers. Use the information available to you to build your own.
