[MOD][CM13][WTT88047] Script mod for Xposed survival across updates for cm13 roms. - Xiaomi Redmi 2 Guides, News, & Discussion

Disclaimer: This is not my original work, I'm just sharing this from this original thread, all credits go to @objr and @adlx.xda
A brief description of the mod:
/system/addon.d is a folder in cm13 roms where you put scripts that should run when you flash a new version of the rom. SuperSU uses this feature to maintain root across OTA's. This mod has an addon.d script that backs up all the Xposed module files that were installed in the system prior to flashing, and restores them afterwards thereby securing Xposed support across dirty flashes.
I personally have tested this mod on my 2014818 and it worked flawlessly while upgrading from the official cm13 13'th May nightly to 16'th May nightly. For confirmation, I tested again today while flashing the 17'th May nightly and it still works as intended. The Xposed framework was still installed and the activated modules already running.
Install instructions:
Nothing complex, just flash the 81-Xposed-update-signed.zip file via recovery and you're good to go:good:
If you can't flash the file for some reason, download Xposed-manual.zip, extract the .sh file, move it to /system/addon.d and set permissions to -rwx-xr-x by any root file manager of your choice.

Will it work for Xposed v84 sdk 23?

Xposed framework for 4.4.2

Hi,
I can't seem to find the proper zip for this. Would it be 21 or something completely different. I'm still running Kitkat (for my own reasons) but everything seems to focus on 5.0 and higher.
Regards.
You dont't need an extra flashable zip, you can just install Xposed directly in Xposed-Installer:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Oh.. Cheers! I remembering flashing a zip on another device, some time ago.

KitKat Xposed doesn't use a flashable zip. The framework is installed via the installer. Version 2.6.1 I believe.
I used the one from here...

Thanks for responding. Actually I can't install Xposed the way you did it (i.e. by installing the application) because my phone is not rooted. So the Installer can't mount the /system partition as rw and make changes to /system/bin/app_process. That's the reason why I have to flash it's zip file through the custom recovery (TWRP in my case). So I was looking for a zip file that would be stable for the given specification of my phone. As not any version can work with any phone . I downloaded a zip from github but that was meant for SDK 21 and above . In fact the Installer that you used, does the same changes to the /system/bin/app_process, just by having root access. Anyway, hope one gives me a link to that zip.

Hi @pingaan !
Same problem here . . I cant find a zip for my Kitkat 4.4.2 . They are all busy with Lollipop and Marshmallow. In our case SDK version is 19. You can check your SDK version and other such details by apps in Play Store (Droid Info is one such app). Plzzzz do let me know if u find a zip for our version.
As far as I know there was never a zip for KitKat. If there was I've never seen it.

I think you are right . . as I have explored almost everywhere but I couldn't find it. But then I wonder . . wouldn't it be a very easy task for expert android buffs here on XDA to just make a flashable zip of the core files of Xposed ?? I am not good at it . . else I would have given it a shot. In case you know any such expert member here (who is also wiling to help) for this simple task . . Plzzzz do let me know.
@The-HAWK,
I haven't forgotten about this. ?
The UNITY all-in-one Xposed package (framework, installer app, tweaks) says it supports KitKat and above.
After work I'm going to see if it does work with KitKat on my LG G3.

You're referring to the Xposed installer app (by DVDAndroid), not the Xposed framework.
Xposed Framework for KitKat has no updates. No development on that front for a couple of years.
As far as the installer app goes, there's no need to update that. Later versions of DVDAndroid's installer may support KK but not sure there's any benefit to updating.
Best to ask in his thread.

[UNOFFICIAL][TEST WANTED][Magisk][v86][22 Oct] Systemless Xposed Framework for MIUI

@topjohnwu has already released the Systemless Xposed Framework based on Magisk, an awesome universal systemless interface. But since official Xposed Framework is not compatible with MIUI, I am trying a hand on porting Xposed Framework for MIUI to Magisk with @SolarWarez's work.
At first I think app_process should be modified to adjust for magisk path detection. Fortunately, I found that app_process is the same as official release. So I have only a little work to do based on the work @topjohnwu has already done. Since I do not have a device running MIUI, I decide to upload it here to give it a test, although it should work.
Whether it works or not, please report!
Prerequisite:
Magisk is required to be installed on your device.
Magisk v8 - The Universal Systemless Interface
Support Devices:
Devices running MIUI with Magisk V7+
Downloads:
Like the original Systemless Xposed Framework, ARM/ARM64/X86 devices use the same flashable zip (X86-64 is being worked on)
As for system versions, please follow this:
Android 5.0: SDK21 Android 5.1: SDK22 Android 6.0: SDK23
Install Guide:
- Follow the instructions in Magisk thread to install Magisk
- Install Material Designed Xposed Installer instead of official Xposed Installer, official Xposed Installer will not detect the /magisk/xposed path.
- Make a nandroid backup
- Flash the compatible zip through a custom recovery
- Reboot and wait for the magic
- (For uninstallation) Remove the Xposed Magisk Module within Magisk Manager or flash the uninstall zip placed in Original Systemless Xposed Framework Thread
OTA:
It is reported that MIUI will verify the boot partition when applying OTA. So if you want to accept OTA, please flash the stock boot.img first.
Sources:
As I actually do not do any hex edit or decompile, and Xposed for MIUI is close-source, the zip you download is the source. But I want to place it here in case somebody wants it.
https://github.com/aviraxp/xposed_21_miui
https://github.com/aviraxp/xposed_22_miui
https://github.com/aviraxp/xposed_23_miui
Credits:
@rovo89 for creating the awesome Xposed Framework
@SolarWarez for making Xposed Framework compatible with MIUI
@topjohnwu for the amazing work on Magisk and Systemless Xposed Framework
All credits go to them.
If you just follow up the steps and encounter a bootloop/not working issue, please feel free to tell me. But since I am not a professional dev, what I can do is try my best to help you.

But I'm not sure to understand how to install all of this precisely. And I'm lost between Magic and Suhide.

I have done the same as in a first post (repacked original one with SolarWarez files), so if my version doesn't work for you, aviraxp's one shouldn't work too. The problem is related to different part, maybe Magisk or other framework, or you have made so many changes in android core. Maybe you can try to reflash MIUI and try again.
work fine on miui 8 mi4 lte
Guys...I need to know a thing about MAGISK.
I would install it on a stock dev china rom.
It has a partial root(I can't write on system partition)
Flashify works good to flash .img files (and maybe .zip files)
But, if I want to update OTA every week my rom, I CAN'T install twrp. (I have a redmi3, it has dm-verity and it cause a bootloop with original rom+twrp)
I want to know if I can install MAGISK zip with flashify, so I can use Xposed and ota updates withoit bootloop.
Thx @MaArCiN074 i Try this in two weeks. (I'm very busy )
Tested with phh supersu and automagisk. Installed material design Xposed apk. When I flash miui Xposed is telling me that can extract binaries and flash on my miui8. Help

Hi, Ota fails, Mi5, MIUI8!!! Thx!
What about MM?
Any plans for Android 6.0? MIUI8 on Redmi Note 3 Pro (SD650)?

[Module] Systemless Substratum (Legacy/Layers Mode)

v2 Uploaded. Now includes uninstaller in the .zip file under "uninstaller" directory. This can be flashed in TWRP so it removes both the module
and everything Substratum writes in data (/data/system/theme and /data/resource-cache) hence providing you with a total clean slate in case
anything goes wrong. This is your reset button.
Of course you will have to reinstall the module before applying any new theme configuration. Failure to do so, Substratum WILL write in /system.
Uninstaller also available as a separate attachment on this post.
So this is the result of updating my device to Nougat and hating with a passion the white notifications which I find entirely unusable
The only way to theme the notifications is using a Substratum theme. If you're using a custom ROM with OMS support you're good to go
but for the rest of us with stock/TW etc ROMs you can only use Substratum Legacy mode on rooted devices which taints the system partition.
This module allows the use of Substratum themes in Legacy mode, without writing anything in /system.
Instructions:
1. Install module in Magisk and reboot.
2. Apply any Substratum theme.
3. Reboot.
In case of reflashing your ROM, as long as you don't wipe the data partition, the moment you reinstall Magisk, your theme will be automatically re-enabled.
Until the module is in the magisk repo, you can download the .zip and install from Magisk manager.
Github:https://github.com/Nodens-/systemless-substratum-legacy
This has only been tested on my own device, (Samsung S6 Edge+ 928F) running Stock Nougat.
It should work with any ROM and Themes which support the Legacy mode.

Also not tested. If Lineage supports the Legacy mode then yes.
Basic rule of thumb. If Legacy mode works on your rom, this will allow you to use it without writing to /system.

Actually it has nothing to do with the beta functionality which allows you to theme NON-SYSTEM apps without root. You can't theme the notifications with the beta for example.
The module allows you to theme everything you can theme in Legacy mode. But without writing in system partition.

As posted in OP, I specifically made and tested this on TW Nougat.
In the Oneplus 3 stock oos rom i can use substratum in legacy mode, with this i will be able to use themes on settings or android system?
I can confirm it working with LOS 14.1 with Substratum in legacy mode on OP3T with theme Swift Black. I had to choose "v7.1 OMS" in Swift Black's settings.
My notifications are beautifully black now.
couldn't get it to work in a custom stock TW MM 6.0.1 rom for my Note 4. i installed the module, substratum theme engine from the play store and a couple of themes. selected the system ui to be themed, but after a reboot there was no change. the rom is deodexed with a permissive kernel so i don't know what else could be the problem.

[Magisk][Module] iOS 11.1 beta 2 emoji + All Pixel 2 fonts (Android Oreo 8.1 DP1)

This module replaces current fonts of your phone.
Changes the default emoji font to the iOS 11.1 beta 2
Changes the default fonts to Pixel 2 Fonts with product sans fonts of Android Oreo 8.1 DP1 included
This module is not my personal work. But I use the fonts from the following thread:

Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk
Installed this through magisk 14 on a moto g5s+ running stock nougat, and it looks like it's worked, but then it will display a different emoji to the one that you click. Anyone having this problem?
Edit. Actually, it seemed to be a problem with textra. Once I downloaded the textra ios emoji plugin it put them in the right order. Seemed to be working properly everywhere else.
This module won't install at all. I tried 3 separate times, even re installed Magisk completely. Here is recovery log.
UPDATE: There's a bug in the installer somewhere because if I flash it first then no other modules will install no matter if I flash magisk again in TWRP and if I instait last it just won't install period.
UPDATE 2: I tried another systemless font zip with pixel 2 fonts and it does the exact same thing so it maybe rooted to that somehow. Thanks again.
Noob question but i just rooted my pixel 2 using Magisk and the only reason for doing so was to install IOS emojis (since most people i message use apple phones its easier for me to understand them)
Previously i rooted my galaxy s6 and used emoji switcher from the play store to change the emojis. Afterwards i unrooted the phone since i was having issues with safetynet apps (i originally rooted with CF autoroot and supersu). Even though i unrooted my phone the IOS emojis remained and I was able to use my safetynet apps properly again.
After rooting my pixel 2, I had some issues with emoji switcher (emojis were cut off on gboard and too close together when typing) so i decided to try this module instead. Worked perfectly save for the lockscreen square as shown in a previous post. Since I dont require root for anything else, I was wondering if I unrooted through Magisk Manager (and restoring the stock boot.img) would this module uninstall itself as well? And would i have any issues with safetynet following the unroot?
I would prefer to keep the IOS emojis and was wondering if they would remain if I decide to unroot(since I assume the module simply overwrites the system fonts)

Magisk modules doesn't actually write anything to /system, so if you uninstall Magisk, you uninstall the mod.
You can of course use the root permission to overwrite the system fonts, but if you plan on unrooting and keep the modification, don't use a Magisk module.

Ok i used a root explorer to find the /system/fonts folder. I assume I would simply have to copy the .ttf files from the module zip into that folder? Or is there more steps to take?
Sorry for asking but i am fairly new rooting and my previous rooting experience was limited to following youtube guides and I'm still a bit unfamiliar with modifying system files.

That would do it, yes... Take whatever files you want from the module and copy to the corresponding location on your device. Just remember that you will not be able to update your device with OTA updates, since /system has then been modified. You'll have to do that manually with factory images.
Edit: you might have to change permissions for the files, but just make sure they match whatever other files are in the same folder and you should be good.

Xposed not working on Samsung S5

Hello,
I seem to have installed Xposed successfully, because in the Xposed app it says, I have installed Xposed Framework v89 successfully.
however it does not seem to work.
I have installed the Module MinMinGuard and it says Xposed is not enabled.
How can I verify if it works or not?
I installed the official Xposed Version.
I remember, that some time in the past I had to install wanams Version for Xposed to works, but since I can only find old Versions, I would like to use the official version.
How can I get it to work?
I use Resurrection Remix ROM v5. 8.2, which is Nougat 7.1.1
Thanks

The exposed installer app main screen will tell you if the exposed framework itself is active or not. After installing MinMin guard did you reboot. Also in installer menu under modules make sure the module is checked then reboot.

Yes, I rebooted.
I have now uninstalled MinMinGuard, but I can not install it again.
It download the addon, but when the download has finished, there is no button to install it, like there used to be.
Does the official Xposed work with a S5 and my CustomROM or only wanams Version?
If I remember correctly, in the past I was only able to install wanams version, but it seems to be outdated by now.
I also get a notification, that I have to update Xposed, but I don't know where to find a newer Version

I am using official rovo's ver 89 on stock 7.0 rom with no issues. I believe exposed is more firmware and architecture related rather than device(with exceptions of course).
As to to custom ROMs I am not sure as I having only used stock ROMs but there are threads here on XDA for your rom. If exposed was not going to work on your device I would think you would know about it.
MimMin Guard(ver 2.0.2) is working for me. I have only been using it for a short time (running 2 other ad blockers as well) have noticed that there are no notifications to say if it is blocking or not unless you open app up and scroll through app lists.
When downloading modules is complete it installs automatically then should tell you to reboot.
Not to sound like a broken record but remember when un/installing reboot.
I believe wanums versions are for Samsung devices on lollipop/marshmellow.
As to updates as far as I know there are none yet for nougat unless you have magisk version or an unofficial version.
Link below is for minmin guard thread for more info

Edit: Sorry just realized yes it does come up with install option. Sounds like you only disabled the module and not uninstalled it.

I did remove MinMinGuard completely.
Now I've found out, that I can no longer install any Xposed addon.
It seems to download the addons, but it won't install.
Also I always get a notification, that I need to update Xposed...
I'll try remove and reinstall Xposed.

What version of exposed installer are you on.
Latest version is 3.1.5
Edit: You could also try clearing data and cache in your app settings.
