Samsung J700H Android 7.1 Stable ROM 100% Tested

In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing Android 7.1 (Nougat) on your Samsung J700H smartphone. Although Samsung only officially supported upgrades up to Android 6.0 for this device, we have successfully tested and installed Android 7.1 using a custom ROM. It also resolves the issue of YouTube no longer working on Android 6.0. The official YouTube app has stopped supporting Android 6.0, but this custom ROM fixes that problem.

This custom ROM, developed by Mdmaher, is named "SE 8.5 V1.3" and is compatible with various Samsung models, including J700F/H/M, J7108, J710FN, A310F/Y/M, A510F/Y/M, and A710F/Y/M. However, we have only tested it on the J700H model, and it works flawlessly without any bugs.

Please note that installing a custom ROM may void your device's warranty and may not be supported by the manufacturer. Before proceeding, ensure you back up your data and follow the instructions carefully. We have provided all the necessary files and instructions below. Please proceed with caution and at your own risk.
