Samsung Galaxy on5 is a pretty good phone for the price. Today I share my root method and debloated stock system backup for all to enjoy.
The version of TWRP I am linking to WAS NOT MADE BY ME. It is an official build of TWRP for our phone.
To prepare the phone to be rooted you will need a few things:
Download ODIN from the following link
Download TWRP tar file
(It will say it is for T-Mobile only, but works on MetroPCS
Once the above is downloaded you must then do the following:
On the phone goto Settings->About and tap "Build Number" 10 times to enable Developer Mode.
Go to Settings->Developer Mode and select "Enable OEM Unlock"Then power off the device.With the device powered off hold "VOL-DOWN + HOME + PWR" until Download mode appears.
Plug the phone into the computer and start ODIN with Administrator Rights.
Open Odin and place that TWRP TAR file in the [AP] slot, under Options tab disable Auto Reboot, then press [Start]When ODIN says the flash is complete in the log window, pull the battery and put the battery back in.Before turning back on hold "VOL-UP + HOME + PWR" to enter recovery.
Once in recovery go to Mount->Enable USB Mass StorageCopy the SuperSU zip to the phone's storageDisable USB Mass StorageGo to Backup->Start Backup to backup the phone IN CASE OF ISSUES!!Go to Install->Select SuperSU zip file and wait.Once done, reboot the phone and you should be good!
This isn't my work at all this for people who have this phome
