I did not checked xda for another twrp thread. Now I am downloading it and asap I will flash on device and see how it works.
EDIT: I flashed it and it works ! Thanks a lot. Now I rooted my 6.0.1 rom. I am using TPH version.
About MOD, wait for a new version. This seems to make boot loop.

This is not created for android 6.0.1 you will get bootloop. But you could try.

This rom is for lolipop and you are on MM so it is of no use to try it. It will not work. If you want to use this rom then first you should flash stock lolipop rom on your device and then you should flash this custom rom. This way no problem will occur and you will be able to successfully flash and use this rom.

screen mirroring

@MaDaLiNoSt: thank you very much for the zip!

I installed it on my J500-FN and everything seems to work, except for screen mirroring/ miracast. It does not even show up as an option.
Is there a way to enable it? Do I have to modify build.prop?
My CSC version: J500FNOXX1AOl1 (Android Lollipop, Romanian version, but for J500-FN, not J500-F)

Thanks again

You will need to use an app called QuickPanel Manager and add a new quicksetting called: AllShareCast; and save it.
This feature will launch miracast search window, but I never tested it. It could be broken.

Thank you so much for your quick response and help!
I did what you described and it ALMOST works - this means that when tapping on the recently added screen mirroring symbol in Lollipop, the phone immediately detects the miracast device (Microsoft Wireless Adapter Version 2 in my case), when you connect to it it even says "Connecting to Galaxy J5" on the TV-screen, but after a few seconds the TV screen just turns back to the original, default, "waiting-for-signal-to-come" message.

Is there ANY fix to this? I even tried out a few other custom ROMs to make screen mirroring work the last days, but all of them failed. Is it just that the hardware of the device (J500-FN) is simply incompatible/ not good enough for this to work?

Best regards and thanks again

I found myself that miracast is fully working on a5 2015 rom. You should also try it, no workarounds required. Just go in settings and search for screen mirroring.
All the best.

edit: if you really want to try fixing it in stock rom, extract the folders from the zip and add manually the apps into system. Give rwrr (0644) permission for apk files, and should work.
Do not attempt to flash the given zip via recovery...

Thank you so much again!! :good::good::good:
I think I will try the fix-stock-rom alternative first. If it doesn't work, I'll try the 2015 A5 Rom.
Actually I already tried 2017 version of A5UX and there Miracast did not work. But you're saying it works with 2015 version? Well, I think I will give it a try. But only if Bluetooth Audio works as well (does it?) - I really need both features (Miracast and BT Audio) and if one works at the expense of the other it's not going to be worth the effort for me.

Thanks a million again
All the best

should work but i dont have anything to test it with

extract the folders from the zip and add manually the apps into system.

where exactly do I have to paste them? there are two folders called "system" (1.: /system; 2.: /data/system). And do I have to just paste the 6 separate .apk files, or the folders (one level above) that contain the .apks?

thanks in advance

in /system/app or system/priv-app paste the folders which names begin with Allshare..., set the permission of folders 0755 and for apk files individually 0644.
For more information about setting permissions do a search and watch videos like this

I tried this and it still didn't work, I then changed ROM to latest (V.7) A5UX, downloaded an app that enabled the screen mirroring symbol and manually added the line "wlan.wfd.hdcp=disable" in build.prop as suggested on many sites in the web. And now it works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! so happy
thanks for all your help
