How to check logs when phone goes to bootloop due to xyz xposed module?

Hi,
I had installed xposed on my Samsung Galaxy S6. The framework as such has no flaws, thanks to @wanam and @rovo89. But whenever I install a module and activate it, there had been scenario's that my phone is going into bootloop and then uninstall/disable xposed in recovery takes hell lot of time as all apps need to be optmised. Is there a way to find out which module has caused the bootloop by looking into logs somewhere?

Try to read each module description before installing it, many of them are being tested against Google/Aosp Roms and may not work properly on TW Roms.
You can still get the logcat through adb while on bootloop, it should point you to the culprit.

Cannot install any apps after installing Xposed framework (-504 error in Google Play)

A few days ago I posted a question about not being able to install any Xposed modules here, so far no one answered: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-framework-installed-running-t3567230
I thought this problem had something to do with the modules specifically, but it turns out that on my phone, for whatever reason, installing the framework subsequently prevents ALL apps from installing, even those from Google Play itself, displaying a "-504" error.
I see people have asked this question before, but are also not getting answers: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/install-apps-installing-framework-t3430922
Please, if anyone has any idea of why this can be and how to fix it, let me know. Any help will be infinitely appreciated!
What phone and ROM are you using?
One thing you could try is to install systemless Xposed through Magisk. Then use MagiskHide to hide both root and Xposed from all Google apps and potential sources of conflict. If it's a software limitation/conflict, this may be a workaround.
Keep in mind that you will have to root your phone with Magisk rather than SuperSU or any other form of root.

Hey, thank you for your answer!
I am using a Sony Xperia M4 Aqua E2306, rom is 26.1.A.1.112 Latin America Generic. It is rooted and with TWRP installed accroding to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/root-e2306-m4-aqua-guide-t3270521
I also have a locked bootloader, and it cannot be unlocked, so unfortunately that shuts the door on most rooting options.
I never heard of Magisk before, but from what I'm seeing, it looks it TWRP is required to get root with Magisk, but some kind of root is already required on my phone in order to get TWRP. So I'm not sure how to go about this.
If your phone is already rooted, then you can download Magisk Manager application and have it installed it's necessary frameworks through the app itself. You won't be able to use Magisk's root, but you'll still be able to install systemless Xposed and hide it from other apps.
Edit: Ignore all of that actually, I just realized that magisk requires boot image modifications so you have to have an unlocked bootloader to use it.

Oh well, thanks anyway. I might try it anyways, maybe it will work, you never know. Don't have much to lose at this point

FIY Magisk cannot hide Xposed...
I also facing these problem on my rooted Asus zenfone 2 (ze550ml 2gb ram version, Stock ROM, bootloader unlocked) and Asus Zenpad C 7 (p01y, stock rom, bootloader unlocked). The xposed firmware (version 86) is successfully install but can't install any apps from play store and using apk...
I really hope that dev team can solve it.....
Sorry for any grammatical mistakes....
The only way is to flash the firmware
I'm getting the same problem on my LG G4 with v88.2 of Xposed :/
I don't Know if this is too late,but I also have this problem. But there is a work around, go into the xposed installer and turn the switch off so its disabled on the next boot. rebot the device and exposed and its modules are disabled, allowing you to install apps from play store and downloaded .apk files... it would still be nice to install applications while its still on.

I had this issue on my LGG3. This happens when you have Lucky Patcher enabled in your xposed modules. Disabling it (Lucky Patcher) should solve the problem.

Question - Android 5, Existing Root, Knox 0x0, No TRWP installation.

Hello, just looking for some clarification if possible before I destroy my device!
So I currently have a T-Mobile Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900T) that has been towel rooted on kitkat 4.4.2 and then flashfire'd to the latest stock Lollipop 5.0 firmware available for my device to keep root.
I have also FlashFire'd the latest unofficial xposed framework for samsung lollipop 5.0.x by dkcldark and I do not have TRWP, or any custom recovery.
As far as I understand xposed is not compatible, or at least probably not the one im using. I'm willing to sacrifice it and go with Magisk for its ability to hide root from apps if at all possible.
I believe the root I have is not systemless. I also believe the t-mobile note 3 has an unlocked bootloader. Though I'm not 100% positive.
Edit: Final note, within Magisk Manager ... it says I am "Properly Rooted, with 2.82:SUPERSU"
So now on to the questions:
1. If I uninstall my current xposed framework and download Magisk Manager, can I successfully install Magisk and accomplish "hiding root/by passing safetynet" from apps on my device that is currently rooted probably via system without a custom recovery?
2. Will Knox also stay un-tripped at 0x0? Or since the boot.img will be modified, this would be tripped? Even though I did not use a custom recovery, or kernal at all?
Appreciate the replies XDA! Thanks.
I just replaced SuperSU with Magisk in my Galaxy S4. So, to answer your questions.
You'd have to replace SuperSU with MagiskSU in order to enable the hide feature. I don't think Towelroot is usable with Magisk, and since there is no CF-Autoroot for Magisk you'd have to install a custom recovery, which will - if I'm not mistaken - trip Knox. At this point in your Note 3's lifespan, the last thing I would be worrying about is Knox, as your warranty on the device is no longer extant.
So using the Magisk Manager app to install Magisk while on my rooted device without a custom recovery will not work and itself replace SuperSU with MagiskSU while keeping knox 0x0?
I was under the impression if you were pre-rooted u could use Magisk Manager, and it would replace the current root with Magisks. And also that it detects if you have a systemless root or not. Installing itself into the system if that's the type of root you had, otherwise systemlessly.
While yeah my device is no longer under warranty, It's just my own personal preference to preserve it.
custom recovery will trip knox... Magisk needs a custom recovery to install the framework as mentioned
i do understand your preference about maintain knox untripped...
do you really use it? (knox app... It was discontinued .... Samsung official press release ... and I did received a email about it)
or intend further sell your device as "original" at eBay? it's a joke...
imho ... knox at this point is a good security sandbox.... but there is alternative ways to secure your apps and personal/professional data...
If install a custom rom nougat flavour and Magisk performance device will increase It... lookup at note 3 devs thread
best regards

Alrighty thanks for the info!
I do not currently use it, but I also don't use Samsung Pay ... and don't really *need* to play Pokemon go, or Super Mario Run... I'll keep my phone rooted, xposed framework, latest firmware, knox 0x0 for now and possibly consider tripping the knox flag at a later time. Assuming no new "root hide" work-around becomes available and based on future safetynet blocked apps.
The SM-N900T is still a very great device... Additional SD Card slot, removable battery, 3 gigs of ram, 32 gigs space, 2.3GHz Quad-Core CPU, 1080p 5.7" Full HD Super AMOLED® screen.
I see no reason yet to upgrade the phone even being about 4 years old now.
I do remember something like a "safe" custom recovery was for the note 3 line, I have used it on my note 3 from Verizon when I had it.
Just see if you can use it, and flash Magisk with it, unless it is obsolete as it may be was replaced by flashfire?

Which Custom Rom do you use? I currently cant find a good one to root with magisk (also S4)
Well, my S4 isn't my daily driver anymore, so I threw a stock-based ROM on it: MachineX. That ROM however uses MicroG, so I had to modify an OpenGApps package to remove the MicroG components and replace them with proper Google ones.
If you're still using your S4, use an AOSP 7.1.2 ROM instead. Less hassle, and runs better.
Magisk hide hides the KNOX status. Simply replace SuperSU to MagiskSU.

That it does but I've yet to see anyone successfully use S Pay/Pass after tripping Knox, with or without Magisk.

Sure, CF Autoroot does not trip Knox?
But Chainfire says so here: "If you have a KNOX-enabled device, using CF-Auto-Root will trip the KNOX WARRANTY VOID status !" :crying:
@ThemGo: You got me. I must have been drinking when I mentioned CF AutoRoot. The point I was trying to make to the original poster about Knox was that there was no way to keep it at 0x0 if installing Magisk.
But, were you that bored that you had to hunt through a five month old post?

DEADLOCK - Xposed 3.1.5 doesn't help to root my device

Hi, I am using Samsung C9 Pro (SM-C9000) and I am on Nougat 7.1.1 (SDK 25). I need to root my device and use some xposed modules. As per advise in xda-developers I installed xposed 3.1.5. When i opened xposed it said xposed framework is not installed and suggested version 89. I tried both install and install via recovery. It keeps saying "Failed to get root access. Make sure your device is rooted properly and you have not blocked shell commands."
Now wondering what to do for this. Because I am installed xposed to root my device. But xposed itself is saying me "make sure your device is rooted properly". Its a deadlock. Also I tried iRoot, King Root, Root master, and various other root APKs and nothing worked so far. Need help to either root my device (with a verified solution for Nougat 7.1.1 - SDK 25) or to successfully install xposed framework/modules for rooting. Please throw in ireas for some verified and working solutions for Nougat 7.1.1. Thank you very much in advance
first of all.
Xposed can't root your device. It's a framework that need root to install.
second... you might need to read as much as you can in your device forum about how to root your phone.
If you still trying like this (without trying to read carefully) it'll lead you to brick your phone.
Hopes this clarify something.

Xposed for Moto E5 plus boost variant?

Tried to install via Magisk module but xposed installer says that the android version was not supported and not suggested to enable?
Seen others in the forums stating they had it on their device. How?
Also, it's been a while since I've used xposed.. what are some good suggested apps/mods that it can provide?
Yeah I remember running into that too. Download BusyBox module as well and turn the xposed module on and off again and reboot. Should work, just make sure to grant root on any popups or check in magisk to see if it is switched off.
