[Q] What happens when xposed is updated? - Xposed General

So I have been thinking about getting xposed framework for my Nexus 5 on stock 5.0.1 lollipop but I had a question that I could not find on XDA already. I would like to know how to update xposed when the developer of the framework updates it. Do I just do the process again and have the updated version or do I do something else? Also, when 5.1 lollipop comes out for the Nexus 5, will xposed still work on that? I had xposed for my Nexus 5 when I was on Kit Kat and I absolutely loved it but I feel restricted on what I can do with Lollipop. I know the developer is still working on it though so that is good. I'm excited to see all the modules working for xposed soon!

Simply flash new zip from official XPosed lollipop thread over your existing xposed framework installation. After reboot, install xposed installer alpha2 APK. That's all.
Regarding 5.1, xposed framework most likely won't work on it. If you decide to upgrade to 5.1 using OTA, you will first need to flash system partition to make sure all original system files are in place. Otherwise OTA will fail.

Xposed Framework won't work with Lollipop - How do we replace functionality?

Updated using the Nexus toolkit. Worked beautifally, rooted and stock recovery. But sad to see that I can't use Xposed! I love Wanam.
From Android Authority - http://www.androidauthority.com/xpos...llipop-540928/
Quote:
One of the under-the-hood changes brought by Android 5.0 Lollipop is the adoption of ART as the only runtime on Android, replacing the aging Dalvik. While ART brings faster app execution thanks to its use of ahead-of-time compilation, it also happens to break Rovo89’s Xposed Framework. For this reason, Xposed doesn’t work on devices running KitKat with ART, as well as on all devices running Lollipop.

Yea. Xposed framework author will need to issue an updated version for lollipop.
Someone made a list of xposed module replacements. It's a short list but a good start. I've checked the Apps Ops replacement they mention from play store and it works great. just make sure you get the right one, there are similarly named ones that don't work.

[Q] xposed on nexus 10 5.1.1

Will it work on android 5.1.1?
I only see it made for 5.1?
Rather not brick my tablet. I really need it to use the xposed multi window module!
Yes, but not all the modules are compatible with the 5.1 version. So be sure that module is working with. Sorry bad english
---------- Post added at 08:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:27 PM ----------
In Xposed General you can find a thread of working modules for 5.1
Already:
made a nandroid backup.
Downloaded xposed alpha what ever version
Flashed the zip in recovery
Rebooted
Everything was f**in great
I went to modules
Ticked the one for lucky patcher
Downloaded the halo multi window whatever module
Activated
Reboot
Bootloop
Went to recovery.
Restored my backup
And now I'm disappointed.
Should I just flash KitKat and go back to 4.4.4 for now or is xposed and its modules supposed to be fully functional with 5.x.x. Soon?
The multi window module helps me get my work done ridiculously easier lol
This module isn't yet compatible with Lollipop 5.1.1. In my opinion, if the module is really missing in the phone, you should go back to the Kitkat because the 5.1.1 version of Xposed Framework is unofficial for now. I think that the modules will be compatible when rovo (the original Xposed developer) update the Xposed for 5.1
Sorry bad english again ?
Just tested the X Multi Window module in the xposed alpha4 by romracer, and it don't stuck at the boot screen
Will depend on the ROM. I've seen posts that the Super Alpha does not play well with Chroma 5.1.1 because of some underhood mods that Chroma has in it's Framework
Working fine with Lolipopalooza 5.1.1
not working for me
Hi,
i flash xposed-sdk22-arm-20150514.zip. then it is still boot logo.... I have a clean install stock rom. I have root. TWRP recovery. Stock radio and kernel.
I don't want to sound like a neckbeard jerk like most of the people here but you NEED to read the Xposed threads in this section. Read the 5.1.1 ENTIRELY, then read the Lollipop one as well. All these issues are prevented with at least 120 seconds worth of reading.
THX, but my english is very bad. Can you please advise me more?

Xposed Framework for S4 active lollipop 5.0.1?

I've been seriously searching everywhere and can't find the right process here.
Is there a Xposed framework for the Galaxy S4 Active i537? I'm rooted and on Lollipop 5.0.1.
I've seen a bunch of the [official] forums for Xposed framework like this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 but most of them talk about Samsung getting bootloops.
Is there a correct build or unofficial Xposed framework build that works for my phone? Any replies would help. I really am just wanting to use Wanam Xposed and Xposed G-touchwiz.
Thanks guys.
Me too my phone is s4 active I9295

The official version of Xposed only works with AOSP-based ROMs (CyanogenMod et. al.). You need to use one of the unofficial versions of Xposed built specifically for Samsung TouchWiz-based ROMs. I'm using CyanogenMod so I can't tell you which one will work for your phone, but I would give the fork by arter97 a try. It looks like it should work as long as you meet the requirements posted in the thread.
I am rooted and I am trying to get lollipop 5.01 rooted version onto my Samsung Galaxy s4 i337 using flashfire. I am appreciative of your help if you are willing to give it.
Figured it out! Xposed on OC7 5.0.1 rooted

Took a few years but hey here is what I did! This phone is actually fast even in 2020 with this software combo. I'm on "I537_OC7_Stock_Rooted_Deodexed_ROM" btw.
[optional install Snapchat and login **before installing Xposed or you never will be able to login again)
GO into airplane mode - set the date on the phone to 9-11-15 manually, install flashfire v.24 apk, BACKUP ALL YOUR PARTIONS in flashfire and transfer to USB (mine was about 3GB), go back into flashfire and install "xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon_requestConcurrentGC.zip", wait for it to reboot and optimize all apps, install "XposedInstaller_3.1.5.apk", Profit.
IF YOU NEED ANY OF THESE FILES SEND ME A PM!

Apparently your module won't work on kitkat, that's a new one. But unless you upgrade to lollipop, you're sol
I cant upgrade to lollipop because my phone is low end no support even update to 4.4.4 and i heard that xposed framework works best on dalvik kitkat to ics

There's no xposed for kk art, only dalvik if that's what you're asking. Regardless, it seems the module isn't compatible with kk.
Ok thanks
Btw the module is androplusmod

Curious My Friend What Device do you Have,
Out of Curiosity if you could provide me
Manufacture
Device Model
Product Name
baseband
modem
Kernel
Carrier
CSC code
Country CSC code
total ram
Knox Status
& if your rooted the method you chose
Phone Tools in Play Store should help you locate this information
sometimes it is possible to find compatible replacement
& if not there is always the option to highly customize and lighten the current system your using to maximize its potential
& Xposed really is more hit and Miss it really is determined by the requisitions the device on is requiring of their device so sometimes Yes and sometimes No
and for lollipop xposed it tends to be a bit buggy & sometimes creates a clunker instead of a masterful device

Android N (SDK 24) Support

Has anyone attempted to flash the SDK 23 version of xposed on top of the Android N Preview?

If you are brave enough: backup your current device and give it a try.
EDIT: in my opinion it is rather meaningless to ask for Android N support yet, as there are at least seven month until a "final" release will hit the market. If the current Xposed version doesn't work, there will be no need to create some workarounds, as the current version is more or less a preview of a preview and there are lots of code-base changes to be expected. I guess it will take some more month until a valid support will be established.
I'm brave enough. Also foolish, because the only superuser I have been able to achieve won't let me r/w to system, so I can't install modules. And even if I could, odds are that all but the simplest modules would fail.
Regardless, it didn't boot.

The new android has many Gravitybox stuff, so I can live without Xposed I think...
so?
Tried last night.
The XPosed SDK23 checks for proper API Level upon installation - and refuses to install if you're different.
TL;DR: If you're not on MM, the MM installer won't work.
I modified the zip script
and removed the api check. The resulting system dies at dex (compiling apps, including systemui). However there are websites claiming the Universal Systemless Xposed Installer will work on Nougat if you first flash Magisk and use the Material Design Xposed Installer (not to be confused with Materialized module) and phh's Superuser apps in place of Official Xposed Installer and SuperSU! I am about to give it a try on a Nexus 6!

Any luck?
Guys... That would never work. If it did, what's the point of SDK versions?
Just like when Marshmallow was released, SDK22 would NOT work whatsoever on 6.0. same if you go back another version using the previous version of Xposed.
Don't try to install it, as it just bricks. That's why the API checker is there.

Sadly those websites are bogus clickbait to generate ad views. (Apparently) I can confirm that flashing Magisk on Android N causes the bootstrap to fail without even flashing Xposed yet. I even tried playing with the install flags. Sorry everyone I'll continue to investigate other solutions.
To those who said it is stupid and pointless to try what I did: Tinkering and breaking the rules of common sense are how many advancements have been discovered. Your posts are negative and unconstructive, nearly a violation of XDA rules. Please try not to be so abusive for the sake of the community.

But honestly, you're just bricking your device by flashing the wrong SDK version. If you want to begin porting it instead of messing with the install script to the Xposed for the wrong version of Android, maybe contact RomRacer. He ported Xposed to 5.0/5.1 before Rovo released an official version, so he can help you out maybe, but you need permission from Rovo to release a working version.
Good luck.

Unfortunately, Android Nougat will be the only Android version that will not support Xposed. This is due to the fact that Nougat is a delicious, but creamy thing, that glues together all command lines when melted.
*sarcasm turned off
There will be support for Android Nougat, be patient like everyone else. If any news arise, rovo89 will make an official statement.

We are a good 6-8 months away from an Official stable release, N is still in the early beta stages. He will work on getting it working when he feels that Google is done changing code around.

Only if you have Nexus 6P, Nexus 5X,*Nexus 6, Nexus 9, and Google Pixel C. So he'll be able to start working to see if he can even make it work. He he stated he was waiting for it to be finished before he starts. It took several months for him to get it working with Lollipop.
The 6-9 months was my estimates on the non Nexus devices

Bad news for my Nexus 9. So I have to downgrade to Marshmallow. Android w/o Xposed is not impossible for me.
