[Boost J7 Perx] Tweaked Kernel/Ramdisk Boot Image - Samsung Galaxy J7 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth

I tweaked the boot image for stock ARA1 Boost J7 Perx kernel/ramdisk to allow for better runtime performance. Flash with TWRP's install image option as boot image, with flashify (any kernel flashing app really) or use DD in the terminal.

Yes you can install kernel/ramdisk boot images in the interface of TWRP. Just tap install image button at the bottom of the zip selection menu and select img then tap boot option for image type and flash it.

First , you must install a custom recovery on your phone using your laptop with either heimdall for Linux or Odin for Windows. You can also use a flash tool for Android and just use your phone but only seasoned hackers should use this method because it is very easy to brick your j727p.
After installing flash tool, download the latest version of twrp for Samsung j727p and flash the correct twrp.img. file using one or the other flash tool mentioned above depending what OS you are using. After flashing recovery you than can install superuser thru recovery. You can Google or search this forum to find how to use and perform these methods.

v3 experimental
http://d-h.st/rBr
I hope someone can test this experimental build
I used a prebuilt dt.img combined with a compiled kernel from source
v2 was fine but I prefer having a cleaner solution by building kernel from sources. The issue is that I did not find how to build the dt.img file as dtb files are not built during make provided by Samsung
At worst, it won't boot to recovery and you have to use odin to flash another recovery or previous v2

OK, flashed. Unfortunatelly, phone during reboots were going straight into download mode with red info saying: "cannot boot normal mode" or similar.
restored previous revovery and all seems fine.

I was expecting it as dtb must be compiled along kernel
However, Samsung sources are not compiling the needed dtb files needed by dtbtool
I am trying to learn how to compile dtb files from the dts scripts along the zImage
However, without a guinea pig device, it is time expensive
Meanwhile, I will provide you with a decent build using a cracked adbd binary to have adb shell with root privileges
I notify @Chenglu as he did a huge work on the dtbtool part
Found this reading:
http://www.armadeus.com/wiki/index.php?title=Kernel-with-device-tree
Will work from there and try a v4 soon
I could generate the dtb files
However, there is only dtbTool for Qcom
Dropping this until we have more decent sources from a developer more used to kernels or Samsung releases info for it if not yet

[ROM][G900H][Lollipop Deodexed]Zephyr Lite v9,Rooted,Knox Free,Debloated,BOG6

Simple, Stable, Smooth...
I am not a developer, I have learnt (and am still learning) many things from the immensely talented developers on this Forum.
This Rom has been created with the thought that there are many people who wish to continue with Samsung Stock Rom to give them a hassle-free use of their Smartphone, yet they need their Rom to be bloatfree, efficient and Smooth.
This ROM is rooted and deodexed for my daily use. Will try to keep the version updated as and when a new stock firmware (with higher/better changelog) is released for the Galaxy S5 (G900H) version.
Please do not expect me to customise this ROM any more than what it is. As I said I am not a Developer. Thanks for Understanding.
Only for G900H (Exonys Variant)
DISCLAIMER
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards. YOU are choosing to make these modifications on your phone and you are solely responsible for your actions.
Enjoy/Share the Rom and hit Thanks, if you like it.

BOOTLOADER/MODEM Package
Already included in the rom folder
Install Instructions:
" Source/credits: @edgarf28 "
For the latest version, would suggest you flash rom first(if you are already on Lollipop) via recovery. Flash Bootloader and Modem via odin after flashing the rom.
This procedure can be done anytime and it won't wipe anything from your device! Your current ROM, Kernel & Recovery will remain the same after you flash this.
Do exactly as mentioned:
- Make sure you have downloaded the correct packages
- Switch off your phone completely (This is IMPORTANT)
- Wait for 30 seconds
- Start your Phone in download mode: Press Vol down + Home + Power buttons till the screen turns on, press Vol Up to continue (Only enter download mode on this way, otherwise it won't work!!)
- Connect your phone to your computer
- Open Odin 3.09 on your PC (Older versions won't work correctly!)
- Click on the 'BL' button, and load in your BOOTLOADER tar.md5 file
- Click on the 'CP' button, and load in your MODEM tar.md5 file
- DON'T TOUCH ANYTHING ELSE (you can brick your phone if you choose other settings in Odin)
- Click on the Start button
- Wait till it finish flashing.
- Your phone reboots automatically after flashing.
- Always check after flashing: Settings -> About device -> Baseband; that should show you the same modem build number noted as here.
And also check if the bootloader got flashed correctly by downloading an AndroidTerminal app, and enter this command: getprop ro.boot.bootloader
NOTE: Sometimes the modem/baseband needs to be flashed 2 or even 3 times till it will get flashed correctly.

I have not faced any root issue on the Selinux enforced mode. Device with knox security do face problem changing to Permissive. Am not qualified to try it too.
I was also using the rom you mentioned and he has done a wonderful job. Edgar's rom is bare bones with add on package. I feel the basic features that Samsung has given should be there and hence have removed only the absolute unnecessary files. Try it and let me know your views. No offence taken at all[emoji6]

No bootloader has not been downgraded. As of now once you trip knox it cannot be reset.

Are you coming from NG3 to flash this rom. If not, please flash the Ng3 bootloader first using ODIN and then flash the zip (will add a note in OP). I have tested the installation process many times before uploading. Had no issues.

Have not done any tweaking for battery but will definitely have better battery than stock I guess (let me know). Have only added the ad block feature. Cannot add features like alliance and Omega due to limited knowledge and also lack of time from work and personal life. You are free to use this as a base (credit will be appreciated) and take it to next level. I am offering my services as a tester. [emoji4]

[GUIDE] Helper zips to switch between OOS 3.0 and OOS 2.2.1 firmware

At the moment we have rather dfficult situation because custom ROMs based on AOSP (such as my AD which is not yet public) require previous OOS LP firmware, while OOS 3.0 includes new MM firmware which breaks both older recoveries and custom ROMs.
As I need to switch between OOS 3.0 and my AD quite frequently, I created two helpful flashable zips so I can do that easily, and because it's useful for me, perhaps it'll be useful for you too.
Download: MM | LP
Instructions:
- Download the firmware you want (or both, if you want easy switching)
- Unpack downloaded zip, you'll find firmware-update.zip and recovery.img inside
- Put both of those files on your phone, in appropriately named directory such as "firmware-LP" or "firmware-MM"
- When you will need to do a switch, simply firstly flash firmware-update.zip, then flash recovery.img as recovery image via "flash image" option in TWRP
- Reboot to load new firmware
That's it, this way you firstly flash chosen firmware version, and then TWRP recovery that works with it.
So if you have two TWRP backups - one of OOS 3.0 and one of CM13.0, make sure that you have proper firmware (and recovery) after restoring backup - LP for CM13.0, and MM for OOS 3.0.
Situation should soon improve (when OnePlus pushes kernel sources, and MM-based ROMs will rebase), but until then it's wise to keep both of those firmware + recovery combos on your sd card, so you can do a switch without any problem on as-needed basis.
Hope it helps. Try to be careful with those, if you mix up wrong recovery with wrong firmware you'll need to flash proper recovery.img variant via fastboot. You can't hard brick anything by using those files, in worst case soft-brick if both your recovery and your ROM will be for wrong firmware you have.
Have fun.
We are waiting for AD release. At least a beta?

No sir. I do not know. Once I tried downloading a build from the below location and tried flashing it but recovery didn't allow me to flash it.

I don't know why is it failed. My knowledge about github and making builds are limited.

ok so i will explain you when you download that file you have to unzip it and then you will have a folder with another folder (if you choosed unzip in archidreoid etc.zip so inside that folder you will have the necesary files (view the attached screenshot) you will have to pack them in a zip file
hope it helps but try to download the latest file to do that cause last time i tried the oneplus2 archidroid there were things that dint work such as ad filter

Lost recovery
Hi sir,
I have flashed MM using the TWRP recovery as normal. But now I have lost my recovery. I am not able to boot into any recovery. Pls help.
JustArchi said:
At the moment we have rather dfficult situation because custom ROMs based on AOSP (such as my AD which is not yet public) require previous OOS LP firmware, while OOS 3.0 includes new MM firmware which breaks both older recoveries and custom ROMs.
As I need to switch between OOS 3.0 and my AD quite frequently, I created two helpful flashable zips so I can do that easily, and because it's useful for me, perhaps it'll be useful for you too.
Download: MM | LP
Instructions:
- Download the firmware you want (or both, if you want easy switching)
- Unpack downloaded zip, you'll find firmware-update.zip and recovery.img inside
- Put both of those files on your phone, in appropriately named directory such as "firmware-LP" or "firmware-MM"
- When you will need to do a switch, simply firstly flash firmware-update.zip, then flash recovery.img as recovery image via "flash image" option in TWRP
- Reboot to load new firmware
That's it, this way you firstly flash chosen firmware version, and then TWRP recovery that works with it.
So if you have two TWRP backups - one of OOS 3.0 and one of CM13.0, make sure that you have proper firmware (and recovery) after restoring backup - LP for CM13.0, and MM for OOS 3.0.
Situation should soon improve (when OnePlus pushes kernel sources, and MM-based ROMs will rebase), but until then it's wise to keep both of those firmware + recovery combos on your sd card, so you can do a switch without any problem on as-needed basis.
Hope it helps. Try to be careful with those, if you mix up wrong recovery with wrong firmware you'll need to flash proper recovery.img variant via fastboot. You can't hard brick anything by using those files, in worst case soft-brick if both your recovery and your ROM will be for wrong firmware you have.
Have fun.

Nice guide man

What a pity! If you"re not afraid you could try Vaserbanix tutorial to change kernel. I don't have PC right now, so I try this and could test every nougat ROM without downgrading, of course you will have some issues but worked for me and its better to stand waiting for devs work. Learned a lot with this and hope you will find useful too. ???☺

If you have twrp use magisk, put it on internal sd, flash in recovery but only on stock boot image, if you are on custom Rom magisk will not install.

The guide for installing twrp on my J727PVPU4ARG2 says you have to format data before flashing anything because it is encrypted.

That is correct, to format data just type yes and swipe, then flash magisk.

And wiping data would erase anything saved on the internal sd... You are wrong. You need an sd card.
