Installing Xposed framework on Galasy S5 G900W8 - Xposed General

Hello,
I have Galasy S5 G900w8, arm7
Had kitkat for a while mainly because it looked like a pain in the... to install xposed framework. But finally decided to jump to Marshmallow. ^^
TWRP installed too.
Phone obviously rooted.
Tried to install xposed-v85-sdk23-arm.zip via TWRP but then won't boot. Got the xposed-uninstaller-20160211.zip to get rid of it.
First simple question : is it working for that specific # G900w8 (canadian - Rogers provider) ?
Thanks!

The official xPosed doesn't work on any LP/MM Samsung Touchwiz devices. You need to use an unofficial xPosed, but since your question was phrased well I'll provide you a link

Thank you! That was the little bit I was missing! And of course, it worked. ^^

The currently available version of Xposed for Android Lollipop is only installable via custom recovery. So if you want to use Xposed on a device, which is running Android Lollipop, you have to root it, flash a custom recovery (preferrable TWRP) and flash Xposed framework. For more information about Xposed for Android Lollipop, visit this thread.
Please, read the first two post very carefully, and have a look at post #2 in this thread. It contains a flow chart which lets you identify the suitable Xposed version for your device.
For a Samsung S4 running stock Lollipop, you will most likely have to look at this thread also.
Thanks but...
Thank you so much but is it official or unofficial and i my galaxy is rooted and i have custom recovery cwm and I'm on 5.01

First of all, use another custom recovery, CWM is known to cause issues. Use TWRP instead.
Second, in the thread I have linked (again, here is the link) there is a flow chart available in post #2 to identify the correct version of Xposed for each user individually. Have a look at it.
The version for TouchWiz-based ROMs is unofficial, as it is not being maintained by rovo89 himself.
A side note from my side: if you want me to reply to you, quote my post or mention me by writing @orville87.

Which version to install for Samsung Galaxy S4 on 5.0.1 rooted stock rom?

Hi,
The default build thread seems to save there is a boot loop problem with Samsung stock rom. Then there is a thread for 5.1.1 which some users say won't work for 5.0.1.
Which one should I install on Galaxy S4 with rooted 5.0.1 stock rom?
Thanks
Yes there's a thread for Samsung 5.1.1, but did you know that if you bothered to look, you would find that there's another thread that's called [UNOFFICIAL] Xposed for Samsung Lollipop by arter97. If the one for 5.1.1 doesn't work for 5.0 then maybe, just maybe try the other thread?
I was hoping there is someone knows what to do. Trying different installer means bootloop and re-flash for me.
You need to have a deodexed ROM for arter97's version to work. It says so right in the first post.

Delete old xposed version before flashing marshmallow compatible version?

Hello,
I have been searching and reading for hours but to no avail, I hope someone can help me with the following.
I own a Samsung S5 G901F which was still running on KK 4.4.4. due to not wanting to lose Xposed. (I've skipped Lollipop)
Now I've upgraded to Marshmallow 6.0.1, yet the old Xposed version is still there...
My question is; do I need to uninstall the old version first before flashing the Marshmallow compatible version? (If so, can this be done by xposed uninstaller?)
If not, can I just 'upgrade' the framework by flashing the new compatible version?
Thanks in advance!

Xposed for Marshmallow 6.0.1

I read in Xposed FAQ about Xposed framework installation :
Does this require root access?
Yes, because it replaces a file in /system/bin. Once the framework is installed, it should work without root access.
Noob question : is it also the case for my mobile SAMSUNG Galaxy A5 2016 running Marshmallow 6.0.1 and not rooted ?
Thanks in advance for your replies.

Since Android Lollipop, the only requirement is an unlocked bootloader and a custom recovery (TWRP for example). Check this thread for more details about Xposed on a Samsung device with Android 6.0.1:

Thanks for your reply.
I will read the thread you mentioned.
But I don't understand a point : to unlock a bootloader and install a custom recovery, I believed that the mobile have to be rooted.
Is it not the case ?
Sorry for my noob remarks.
Well, for the numerous devices that I own, I had to unlock the bootloader before rooting was possible. But for detailed instructions, check the corresponding device subforum on XDA. There you'll find information about this.

Unfortunately after reading instructions, it seems that I will lose SAMSUNG warranty for my device. It's like rooting your device.
So I can't install Xposed framework on my Galaxy A5 2016, as I could do it for a "normal" application (without rooting my device).
I was thinking that it was possible since Android Marshmallow.
