Just exactly what the title of the thread says... nothing else!
I am not a dev....
Just to make it clear, there is 0% of development work from my side here, just used the available tools around and spent a lot of hours in testing and trying the best config to reduce as many bloat as possible but still don't affect first boot with setup wizard.
PLEASE, DO NOT MIRROR IT OR USE IT WITHOUT MY AUTHORIZATION. DO RESPECT THE HARD WORK DONE HERE!!

What?? That has nothing to do with their question...
But to answer them, you need LP installed, root, & recovery(from the install notes above) to even install this. Seems all you get here is deodex and zipalign.
I'm on a 6603(US) and I did my phone like 20 times yesterday to get xposed to work. Got root and recovery each time, the first time. This is how i did it from scratch...
1. Using Flashtool, flash .93 fw
2. Boot and enable debugging, mock, unknown sources, & airplane mode
3. Run giefroot (v2 worked best for me)
4. Run dual recovery installer (after root's reboot)
5. Flash prerooted LP from twrp recovery
6. Run byeselinux after first boot
Phone will reboot and your set. You can then flash this file, or u can flash it at step 5 (this I haven't tried).
I take no responsibility for what you do to your phone. Follow my steps at your own risk. Backup everything first to an external device/sd card
Does this have any Oi customization? I mean boot logo etc...

All right, did almost the same friendly process, this thread is for those who have at least Lollipop.
Do not use Xposed, very unstable for me.

I let the thread link by serajr the option rom debloted. The deodex is only in app, priv-app framework and does not include boot unless use the FW Oi BR
To be sure how this works:
This is for not deodexed LP stock roms.
When you flash this .zip it will automatically delete the unnecessery bloatware and zipaligne the rom?

Hi guys,i posted my first rom for Xperia play(R800I)
Today I poste my first Rom for the SONY ERICSSON - XPERIA PLAY
PS: I remind you that neither I nor the site XDA be liable for any damages that may result in using the files posted by me, being totally at your own risk, remember that you must necessarily have some experience, otherwise forget it the rom in question and try another.
Great Tanks to DooMLoRD and AndroHero ;-)
Now will list 'the peculiarities' of my work:
GB_Mixer-Play_by_Oty2002
Based on Official Firmware 4.0.A.2.368 R800i (last exit)
Unlocked Bootloader needs:
http://unlockbootloader.sonyericsson.com/instructions
(Only compatible with the Kernel and v03 OF DoomLord ;-)
The kernel can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1176502
X Flashing the Kernel Procedure
• Download the boot.img
• save the folder where you boot.img ADB and the file fastboot.exe
• Turn off the PLAY
• Start the PLAY in fastboot mode (hold down the key fig (magnifier) and connect to the PC, the LED will be blue)
ADB • Use the commands below to flash the boot.img.
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
• Reboot the phone and enjoy the new kernel
• Support up to overclocking 1.9GH, Recommended maximum GH 1.4)
Use (NoFrills CPU) for overclocking, and it can be found on the market 'for free ;-)
Removed some System From App, Rom and now 'very light ;-)

Hi, thanks for the rom! Silly question - how do I flash the .zip file? Do I have to rename it to update.zip and then install from sd card in the recovery mode?
No, you don't need to. You can use the recovery to install the file from any location.
I'd just like to let you know, DSP Manager works out-of-box on stock SE without replacing audio libs.

Thanks. I've managed to flash the new ROM. Get past the boot screen thinking all good until I get this message: "Sorry! The Application HTC_IME mod (process jonasl.img) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Force Close.
I've installed the compatible kernel so not sure what's gone wrong here.
All I can do is power down the device, no access to menus etc
Any advice please?
Seems like the keyboard is giving you flak. OP, did you test it?

It's not a question of compatibility, it also gave that error on other phones where I also made the rom (lg optimus dual) I repeat that mistake it to be 'only immediately after the first flash ROM, tested and running perfectly

You will get a FC on first boot with the HTC_IME mod. It's only because there is no data folder associated with it. It will FC and create it's own data

Hi, thanks for all the replies regarding this issue but reboot hasn't helped.
I've rebooted it about 5 times so it's not a first boot issue. I'll try leaving it running for a while, as you mentioned it might create the file structure etc.. will let you know how I get on.

OK, then do a test:
Try to write a message, must operate the keyboard htc after this test, restart the phone and you should not have more problems

Tried that mate, no joy I can't get no apps up, can get into the keyboard settings by holding one of the hard keys then selecting the settings icon.
Should I reflash the kernel perhaps and then reflash the ROM?

What I want to tell my friend, try to flash the kernel first and then flash the rom;-) I recommend you wipe the three usual
No luck I'm afraid, will keep exploring!
Quick question, will this rom work on a R800a?
Thanks, I have a little experience with flashing android phones and the iPhone. I don't have that much concrete knowledge of the "in's & out's" of the phone but I'm very good at following directions to the "T"...

Hello...This it a amazing work. I have a question... I install this rom perfect, but i change the dpi to 170. In this case everything works perfect but the skin for dial can't arrange to the new format...Exists some way to fix this ? Thanks you...
Flashed. All great. Lost root at first but flashed the file and all is well. Thank you very much!
I have one question. I mean I backed up, and all is fine but my internal sd card got wiped, unlike it should. Is that part of your wiping process or is it something with the s3 mini. Just for future reference.

You can flash modem.bin from your original stock ROM. Extract it uzing 7zip or WinRAR, upload it somewhere and paste the link here, I'll make it flashable via Odin.
A question a bit off-topic... is there anyway to know which mods can be installed on any S3 Mini (I8190, I8190L, I8190N) and which mods can't? I'm guessing that anything that has to do with kernel has to be very device specific, but can I flash any custom recovery (CWM, TWRP) regardless of the phone's version?
Well for instance, the L version doesn't have NFC and the N version does, they could differ in lots of things so no you can't just flash anything on it.

To install this ROM you have to follow this:
1. Use Titanium or any other sw to backup your contacts, sms, favorites and any other personal files
2. Boot into CWM / TWRP recovery and do your usual nandroid backup.
3. Flash the Flash_me_first_I_will_fail.zip which will fail. Don't worry, is ok. If you don't flash this, your Aroma will not start. TWRP users reported that they could flash directly the ROM without the fail file.
4. Flash the ROM and make your choices in Aroma. Please click on items you want even they are already selected. If not, you could end up with missing apps after reboot even you sow them selected. Sometimes, there are some visual glitches and you'll not be presented with the final reboot screen. If you see that the process is stuck for more than 5 minutes, it means that the final screen is not presented visually and you have to press twice on the low right side of the screen (just below the progress %) and your phone will reboot normally. Don't worry, the ROM is flashed correctly.
5. First reboot will take ~7-10 minutes. Just wait patiently.
6. After you setup your ROM, make all the updates from PlayStore and Samsung Apps Store if any (I used the latest apks), update SuperSu binary and reboot your phone. After this reboot you will see also the AdAway icon in your app drawer. Start the app and update it.
7. Enjoy the ROM and give feedback.[/FONT]

I succeeded to deodex, root and zipalign the NK5 firmware for SM-N915F (CSC SER) with the Kitchen but it doesn't seem to install.
I tried to install it from CWM but it goes very fast thru the installation (~ 5 secs) and says installation finished.
I highly doubt that it's installing anything in those 5 secs.
If someone want to have a look in the updater-script to find what is wrong I'll be very grateful.
If someone wants to try the ROM I'll upload it somewhere.
Thank you.

Try to install it twice in a row. Send me the link I'll look at it and send it back to you. I cannot install it tho as I have the SM-915T. I just saw your link I'll look at it tomorrow sometime and send you back one that should work.
Here is the link: https://mega.co.nz/#!WR1kBYLI!LOsSS0zBCsDdtiAJsmURqsk_9W3cvjNJd--kBzKgvQU
Please be aware that the ROM is not booting!
Hi man.
Do you progress in your work?
thanks
Sorry, but no progress.
I was busy with my work and there is no one to help me with the updater-script.
Ok.
I already have this problem on my note 3.
Try to do a factory reset manually and install your rom after. Sometime,the script dont delete system and after, no enough space in system
What ROM base do you have now: NJ8 or NK5?
NK4. It's for 915FY
Have you tried to flash this ROM?
I suspect that it didn't work for me because I was on NJx base not on NKx.
and compatible with this rom 915FY '?
Install Diskinfo from playstore and check what partitions you have for cache, userdata and system.
For 915F these are: cache - mmcblk0p25, userdata - mmcblk0p27 and system - mmcblk0p24.
So, if you have same partitions ad N915F then yes, is compatible.
Good luck.
I finally managed to make a working cwm .zip of NJ8. I will try to make one also for NK5. If someone wants it just say it.
Maybe later, I'll add some mods to it if I'll find some free time.
Happy New Year to everyone!
ROM link up in OP.
sorry but this rom and compatible x SM-N915FY?
I don't have the N915FY but I think that should be ok because they have the same HW.
If you want to try, please make a nandroid backup of your ROM first. Let me know if it works.
Good luck.
ok then I do the backup and then try the rm and let you know what prog ... I can use x to backup?
First of all you need to be rooted. Are you rooted?
Once you are rooted, install Chnglu's CWM from the link in OP. After CWM installation, you can reboot your phone in recovery (shutdown the phone, press vol-up + home + power button) and perform the nandroid backup.
Good luck.
Dont work on 915FY. bootloop in note edge screen.
I cant take a valide boot.img from 915FY for put into your rom.....
After flashing the ROM, before the reboot, restore your boot from the cwm backup. It could work.
Good luck.

@micky387, does that help and is the FW now running!?
[UNMAINTAINED]
This is for both locked/unlocked. Being 100% stock it is not going to unlock your BL, mess up your DRM/keys etc!
As some people asked me hereby I present you my new all-in-one solution for z3c d5803, this time based on LP 5.1.1, with following charateristics:
- Based on LP 5.1.1 23.4.A.1.264 FW (D5803, customized IT); 23.4.A.1.200 (D5833, customized HK) both with good spaced LTE icon
- pre-rooted with SuperSU 2.46 and Dual Recovery 2.8.21
- 100% stock (odexed)
- Heavily debloated with my own original big list
- xposed flashable v78 official by rovo for 5.1.1 + xposed APK alpha4
- Web View Google already updated to latest version as of 21/Jan in /data
- NFC icon restored
- Etar Calendar replacing Sony's
- Google Keyboard, Dialer and Contacts replacing Sony's (normal V8) or stock Sony versions (in V8_sony version)
- Nova Launcher replacing Sony's
- ES File Manager (pre-bloated version) replacing stock one
- QuickPic (neutered signed pre-bloated version) replacing Sony Album
- Z3+/Z4 bootanimation and live wallpaper
- Z5 conversations/messages/InCallUI/Phonebook (V8_sony version)
- Gravity Box, Unlink ringtones/notifications volume, AppsOpsXposed, MinMinGuard, Blurred System UI and Xperia Xposed xposed modules in /data
- Latest Sony Music in /data
- DPI changed to 280 for much better screen experience
- External SDCard writing fix
- Status Bar Icons Spacing Fix - example
- Camera/Album link FIX - to be able use camera without Album installed so you can open the images you take with your favourite image viewer!
- Lock screen fix in SystemUI (for hour in bold, and minutes in thin font) - example
NOTES
1. as in my first debloating solution for all xperia phones, all the bloat/replaced stuff is not really deleted but moved to a Backup folder in system (/system/__Backup) so you can restore anything you want very easily (sony keyboard, sony launcher, system apps etc)
2. that's the reason you can see /system partition still almost full in spite of my high debloat, but stuff moved to the backup folder is "silent", so for sure it is not affecting the system at all and it is like it is not installed: I use this approach for people who needs to restore something, this way restoring is very very easy and fast. By the way, deleting the whole Backup folder (or moving it to your sdcard) you will then see something like 1.1 gb extra free space in /system!! (see screenshots below )
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Requirements:
- Working recovery installed
Installation: (as easy as...)
1. full backup
2. full wipe (system, data, cache and dalvik) ***
3. flash either AiO for D5803 [V8!!!] or AiO for D5803 [V8_sony!!!] or AiO for D5833 [V6!!!]
5. reboot/enjoy
PS IMPORTANT NOTE for unlocked BL users: to fix r/w on system you will have to flash a custom kernel like the one by Gustavo for example
*** NOTES ABOUT FULL WIPE vs DIRTY FLASH
You can also avoid wiping /data to keep all your data untouched but if YOU DO NOT WIPE DATA:
1. all apps I updated directly in /system may conflict someway with copies you may have stored in /data and you could get FC, especially Play Store/Services (btw in case any conflicts will appear it is pretty easy to fix them if you know how to clean things up yourself, for example clearing data of the conflicting apps installed in /data, and then uninstalling them via settings > downloaded apps)
2. my all-in-one solution won't be be 100% effective: the personal apps I included that are going to be installed in /data (xposed installer APK, Play Games, Sony Music, Gravity Box and Blurred UI xposed modules) WON'T be installed but just placed in /system/etc/product/applications with no effects (so in this case you can either keep them there, won't hurt, or delete them if you don't want them, while if you want them installed you can just click on them to start the installation as normal APKs)
3. all the apps installed by sony FW in /data (kobo books, navigator, social life, psp app, avg etc etc) won't be automatically removed (you will have to go to settings > downloaded apps to uninstall them manually)
4. not all the things needed for xposed to work contained in the FW will be installed automatically, so xposed will not work OOTB anymore (to get it to work, you will need to install manually at least xposed installer APK you can find in /system/etc/product/applications, and then all the modules you want to use)
I repeat the above will happen only if you DO NOT WIPE DATA, with clean flash instead everything will be as supposed: for sure no conflicts at all, all apps installed, xposed, modules, full debloat etc everything up and running and working OOB!
In case of UPDATING from one version to another: (as easy as... if not expressly mentioned to do otherwise...)
1. full backup
2. wipe system, cache and dalvik (do NOT wipe data, this way you will keep all your personal data)
3. flash new version via recovery
5. reboot/enjoy

- simplified all-in-one zip structure with less "extra" scripts (i did put three zips in one so at the end of the fw flashing you won't see too many additional zips flashing after each other)
Removed stuff:
With my solution you are going to get rid of more than 170 packages and all relevant libs/stuff plus all applications automatically installed by Sony, overlays etc...
As said at the beginning, stuff is not going to be really deleted, but moved in /system/__Backup folder. This way you can restore things very easily.
At the following link you will find the full list of all stuff I moved away:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1geFByRKDTOOZSIBOixO2boG1_78NUjqzkB6iozzJ4-k/edit#gid=0
PS. the file is with read-only access for everyone, if you have any changes to suggest please reply the thread or send me a PM
HOW TO RESTORE SOMETHING
PS. of course I also removed from my FW all the stuff that can be easily downloaded from the Play Store (Gmail, etc)
In the hidden field below you will find the restoring instructions you need to follow to restore any package you may want back:
According to what you want to restore, you have to follow two different procedures:
- all the APKs that are inside /system/__Backup/various/etc_custom_apps and /system/__Backup/various/etc_prod_apps are regular APKs that are going to be installed in /data, so you can just run them and then select "install" like a normal APK, easy. You will then see them in Settings > applications > downloaded
- instead, all the things in /system/__Backup/system_app and /system/__Backup/system_priv-app folders can't be normally installed, but must be restored in the correct /system folders with correct permissions. To do this, see the step-by-step instructions below (in the following example, I am going to restore Chrome app in /system/app and Velvet (Google Search) in /system/priv-app, but of course you can restore how many things as you want at the same time)
Code:
- with a root file manager like ES, go to /system/__Backup/system_app and MOVE the whole "Chrome" folder to /system/app
- with a root file manager like ES, go to /system/__Backup/system_priv-app and MOVE the whole "Velvet" folder to /system/priv-app
- reboot
- done
PS. don't copy but MOVE things back, or permissions will get messed up and you are likely to end up in a bootloop!
PPS. still, if you mess up something copying stuff to /system, and you get a bootloop, remember you can just enter in TWRP, mount system, and then with advanced > file manager you can delete what you have just copied to /system, this way your phone will boot up properly again

INTRODUCTION:
Hello!
I'm Robert, an satisfied and happy user of the Samsung Galaxy J5 ( J500FN), but somehow bored of it since it doesn't have any custom rom or kernel, in few words, xda support. At begin, i was planning to build Cyanogenmod or AOSP and an custom kernel with minimal features, but i lack the knowledge to do it, but it's not impossible, just that i have alot of headache and i'm not that happy with that. I was also planning to do an custom rom too, with many features and many themes available, this is easier, but again alot of headache. I can't promise i would do these, but i may try again to make a better custom rom.
So, here is Stock ROM Advanced. It's just an simple rom, nothing more yet. Check out the features section for more informations.Screenshots attached ( switch XDA theme to 2013 or 2015 theme from bottom of page and click on Screenshots tab if you can't see them.
Please share this XDA thread since Galaxy J5 doesn't have it's own xda forum...
FEATURES:
- Based on firmware J500FNXXU1AOI1_J500FNDBT1AOI2_J500FNXXU1AOI1
- Pre-Rooted with SuperSU (v2.66)
- Busybox installed (v1.24.1-osm0sis)
- Zipaligned all system apps (for better utilization of RAM) - What mean this? <--- click
- Deodexed - What mean this? <--- click
- Debloated - removed some samsung apps and some other unecessary apps for more RAM, more internal memory available and less wakelocks (so more battery). More info about removed apps in post #2.
- Knox removed
- Faster boot & shutdown
- Faster than stock? You tell me
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
That's all the features it has now. Is just an custom rom based on stock rom, with some minimal changes, but improving the daily experience, at least for me. I can't promise, but maybe in future i will make it more than an simple rom, with more features. I repeat, can't promise it. I have decided to add more features in next version.
DOWNLOAD:
Stock_ROM_Advanced <<< click. Just mediafire link for now.
DO NOT MIRROR THE ROM. IF YOU WANT AN MIRROR, LET ME KNOW AND I WILL UPLOAD IT TO THE WEBSITE YOU WISH since i have good network! Thank you!
INSTALLATION:
(it's actually easy to install it, but i've wrote it this way because there may be new people to XDA which just wish the rom and doesn't want to bother by searching to how to do it)
1. Download the rom and put it on your External SD Card ( make sure you have enough space).
2. Download this TWRP recovery: TWRP recovery by @aapav01 - more info about this recovery at CREDITS
You can also use TWRP 3.0 by [MENTION]Nick Verse [/MENTION]which is fully working. Big thanks to him as well. If you didn't know yet, he also made a KERNEL for our J5
3. Download ODIN program. I'm using v3.09
4. Enable the OEM unlock bootloader option at developer options (if you can't see Developer Options, then go to Settings > About phone and tap 7 times build number).
5. Reboot your phone in download mode by keeping pressing Power button + home button + volume DOWN button at same time for few seconds. After an blue screen will appear, press volume up button.
6. Connect your phone with usb cable to your PC.
7. Open ODIN program and an number should appear at ID:COM. If it doesn't, then make sure that the phone usb drivers are installed.
8. Click on AP or PDA ( according to the version of odin which you downloaded) and choose the TWRP recovery you've downloaded and click START. Wait until the process finish.
9. Now go to TWRP recovery by keeping pressing Power button + home button + volume UP button at same time for few seconds.
10. Choose Wipe, then Advanced wipe and choose Dalvik Cache, System, Data and Cache and then Swipe to wipe.
11. Now choose Install and go to the place where you did put the ROM and choose it. Wait till installation finish and DON'T REBOOT YET.
12. Flash GAPPS. I use Open Gapps, ARM 5.1.1 pico version. http://opengapps.org/ . It's XDA thread is HERE .
13. Wipe dalvk cache & cache.
14. Reboot & WAIT 5-10 minutes until it boot!. Only first boot is longer. NOTE: When you reboot, if it ask you for SuperSU choose "do not install".
15. If you followed all the steps carefully, then everything will be OK. Enjoy
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Flashing GAPPS is required because if you don't you will be stuck at setup wizard. This issue is probably caused by one of the removed apps. However, it won't cause any other problem. So, flashing GAPPS is a must right after you flash the rom, but you can remove them if you wish after you finish Setup Wizard.

Maybe is not fully debloated, but i didn't have any issue after i've deleted these apps. i can remove even more to make the rom lighter, apps which doesn't suit for me, which some people would want them... I may add AROMA zip to let people choose what apps they want to remove.

Thank you:
@22rp420 @nov01 for confirming some xposed modules!
If you know more xposed modules which are working on our phone, share with us!
2. My phone is running slow / has lag. Why?
My phone haven't lag or ran slow never and i'm using Power Saving mode all the time.
Use Greenify app to hibernate the apps which are running in background. Maybe you don't want Facebook or other apps running in background, eating RAM and battery while you use your phone or while your phone is in idle/standby. Then Greenify become useful. It does help gaining some more available RAM and also battery.
Also, don't use any Task killer because it is not necessary. It just does the opposite: make the phone run slow.
3. My battery drain too fast!
People use phone different. Everyone. My best SOT (screen on time) was 13 hours. Maybe you can or can't achieve that SOT. It all depends of how you use the phone.
The biggest battery drainer on Android are:
- Facebook app, facebook messenger
- Google Services
Greenify does help gaining battery too.
You should install BetterBatteryStats app to see what is draining your battery.
Personally, i'm using facebook in browser and i enable play services when i need them. I disable them with Tasker app by running some shell commands. Of course, you can do this with init.d too or some other apps. I will share the shell commands which i'm using later. I have maximum 10 minutes wakelocks in BetterBatteryStats widget and my battery doesn't drain even 1% per night.

Are there more people who experienced this? Please let me know.

I don't have any issue with the WiFi, but I think that the problem might be caused by WlanTest which I've removed it.
Later, I'll post here an flashable zip which does bring the WlanTest back and hopefully Wifi gets fixed.
Thank you both for reporting this!

YES! Indeed!
@MAICK-LGG3 @galaxysi9000freak
I'm sorry for being late and also that i haven't made an flashable zip. I uploaded an zip file containing the WlanTest.apk.
1) Download WlanTest zip and extract the zip on your sdcard.
2) After you extracted the zip, you will have an folder named WlanTest and inside the folder WlanTest.apk. Use an file explorer with root and move the folder WlanTest to /system/app.
3) Set permission for the folder like this: http://i.imgur.com/gin3axj.png .
4) Set permission for WlanTest.apk from inside of folder like this: http://i.imgur.com/NXy772e.png .
5) Reboot
Let me know if this fix your wifi problems.
I was quite busy on working on the rom. Starting from next version, the rom will have a new name. It will also be themed, will have it's own logo and own bootanimation and more. Don't wanna spoil
I see that this thread has 600+ views already which is nice to see it

Can you take a logcat please?
How to take logcat
Start taking the logcat and then try to put wifi on. Also, try to wipe dalvik cache and cache in recovery.
Thank you!

if @Force doesnt have wifi problem, you should download again the rom and flash it
could be a download problem and some files can be corupted.
i meet many times this "download isue" and was fixed in this mode
just try it! @Force you can test the uploaded package too.
