Does anyone have working Xposed module on rooted Stock rom (S251) for Lenovo P2? - Lenovo P2 Themes, Apps, and Mods

Dear xdains,
My Lenovo P2 is running Android N stock rom (S251_ROW) and rooted systemlessly with Magisk.
I can run pretty much any root app on the phone except xposed module. I've tried all different versions of xposed. I have installed latest Xposed installer. Tired it via TWRP's zip flashing, tried it via in-app installation, tried version 88.1, 88.2 for SDK24 and even version 89. However, every time phone gets stuck on boot animation screen.(blue dots on white background).
My main intention of installing Xposed is to change the default (boring) system animation. (Transition effect).
I've even tried stratum but only can make few cosmetic changes but touching the transition animation bricks the phone.
I didn't get any solution apart from flashing an AOSP based ROM or Lineage ROM etc.
I don't want to go for any custom ROM because isn't the whole point of rooting is to gain full control over the phone and make the current system work as we wish?
So, any expert, please tell me why does the stock ROM doesn't support Xposed? I mean, technically what is preventing it? What files should be modified to support Xposed on stock ROM?
If anyone knows any way to make xposed module work on Lenovo P2's latest stock rom S251 or to change transition animation/effect on the same, please let the community know.
Thanks.

Yes it happens.
But after flashing xposed on stock, first boot takes time.
After waiting for some time, click home button(or fingerprint button) it will boot. It will boot definitely.
It is the bug you have to face if flashing xposed on stock rom
Hit thanks if you like it.....

Awesome kernel with a lot of options and some presets Standard, Battery Saving, Perfomace, etc..
Most of the time when I need good performance I load the "Power" preset within the Boeffla-Configuration App, the tablet runs really smooth without compromising the battery, or u can try u r on settings like oc to 1600Mhz, etc.

Thanks for this !
My N8000 has been so laggy these last weeks that even going back from apps list to the home screen could easily take 30 seconds, and even cause it to reboot.
I prefer to have it usable under KK rather than up to date (LP, MM) and useless.

Hello people,
Coming from a later version (CM-based Lollipop or Marshmallow), is there a recovery-flashing step before diving into this ?
Thanks.

U will have to go back to a stock rom.
1.- Go to sammobile and download a stock 4.4.2 rom for this tablet, u can download the same base this rom is made of ( N8000XXUDPB1 for Luxembourg ).
2.- Then root, flash a custom recovery (I recommend Philztouch), make a full nandroid backup just in case.
3.- Flash this rom.
That's it.
Thanks dude. All went well. Up and running, smooth and fast. ?

my problem with my tab is it only stays at 0% even i replaced battery 3 times..
and flashed stock rom and custom roms
tried different charger also.. and still 0%
i dont know what else i can do (

I fixed it. I have a flash able zip that fixed the issue. But I have another huge bug. I can not receive any incoming calls. My phone rings and I hear the call but that screen that pops up saying this person is calling swipe left to answer never comes up. Also if you make a call that i call screen doesn't show up either so you can't hang up or enter anything.

Look just go to default apps choose phone.i forgot I was meaning to add that in install instructions. Reboot and it's fine....

I just flashed deutoronomy 2..3.3 and that fixed the whole viper problem.
This bug may be the same bug associated with the dreamux rom when it comes to bluetooth. When i connect a bluetooth device of any kind to this rom the device all of a sudden lags to the point where the device is unusable. As soon as i turn off the bluetooth device and it disconnects from the phone. In a few seconds, the phone goes back to normal and everything is fine

I flashed Magnum Opus and the driver they use is busted. If you flash XtremeMusic after ARISE then delete ViperFX it processes great. Magnum Opus sounds twice as good as Deutoronomy.
I gotta say i love this rom. It is very stable. With the exception of the bluetooth bug. This is a very stable rom.

Sweet!
* The boot animation beginning is too short, as the tmobile splash screen should just be a google splash screen, so the word Google appears longer before warping into the boot animation. We use to be able to flash icon.bin to fix this, is this still accurate? Everything else is awesome.
Awesome Joe!

Yeah I have to get into the logo.bin file to see if I can change that. Honestly that boot animation is a place holder for the next release

First impression is that it installed smooth as silk and even kept my data. SuperSU installed just fine and all my apps are working seamlessly too. Anxious to see how your kernel performs in the next day or so.
Is there a way to enable the advance power menu which includes soft reboot and screenshot selections? Good work!

We have confirmed that the flashable zip keeps TWRP on your phone and you get to keep the kernel and your system working fine!
To root with this, flash twrp to your boot partition using fastboot, flash the kernel zip and then flash magisk.
EDIT: also confirmed to work on nougat!
Tried Rey2.zip nd booted back to twrp and the touch didnt work. Using the latest twrp as well

Is Magisk working with this kernel on Oereo B2? Magisk 14.3 caused lots of reboots, 14.6 just doesn't work (no magisk after boot).

Looking into it, I think flashing magisk makes touch work, will see if I can fix it within the kernel side.

The problem with the stock camera app was that it compresses images too much, they have lower the compression ratio but it is still not good enough. You can try it yourself to see what I mean. In broad day light outdoor, the images appears to be great but if you zoomed in, you will see it it just doesn't look right. The color is washed out as well, and you don't see any details. Looks like everything is smoothed out. File size is about 6 to 7mb or so. The low light shots are worst, it's about 3mb and there's more fuzzy stuff and lack of details/sharpness.
If you can dive deep into the apk to see what they set the compression to, and change that to possibly 0, and see what else needs to be changed. I spoke to Arnova8g2, who helped ported the gcam hdr+ to oneplus3/3t and he helped fixed the compression a bit on the older apk but I can't overwrite it no matter what. Let me know if you need any more info.

[8.1] [Magisk Module] Multi-Touch Fix for 8.1 Devices running LOS/AOSP

Hello guys and girls,
As some of you already know Android 8.1 suffers from a severe Multi-Touch Issue. This issues makes the smartphone randomly jumping between the two touching points on the screen when touching with two or more fingers.
The issue is known to google since the preview of 8.1. It isn´t only affecting pixel but most probably all devices running 8.1. The issue is also present on P.
An issue got created here: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/70344455
There is a fix since mid march in review on google gerrit. But that didn´t make it into the april release, obviously.
To visualize the issue refer to the following videos:
https://youtu.be/wgYN5GwIgIc
https://youtu.be/2Vv584tvVyg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dnIk_5qdK8&feature=youtu.be
This is especially bad for gamers. With the recent release of PUBG this issues seems dramatic to some, less to others.
I´m no gamer but I noticed the issue on the google foto app.
This issue has nothing to do with the corners badly reacting to touches, or touch sensitivity etc.
So but now to the fix. It seems the issues is only related to resampling but not to touching specific points of the screen ( not related to crossing x and y axis).
That also explains why the issue wasn´t happening when using the touch tracking tool in dev settings but on various multi touch test apps.
The fix is on google gerrit currently under review here:
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/native/+/640605
https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/native/+/640606
Last week I compiled myself a DU build with the changes included and I couldn´t trigger the issue at all. I found no other side effects caused by the two patches.
For now I decided to provide a Magisk Module which replaces the changed libs that fixes the issue.
I compiled the libs while doing my april build of DU. The magisk module can be found on the link a little bit down.
The download is here:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=890129502657595755
A few disclaimers here.
1. That fix should in theory work for most 8.1 devices, including the likes of pixel 1st gen, pixel 2nd gen, one plus, xiaomi which suffer from this severe issue.
1a. It works only for AOSP/LOS based roms on the essential phone. It seems like stock isn´t close enough to aosp.
2. I didn´t fix this, I just compiled the libs with the fix found on google gerrit.
3. Rom devs you are very welcome to include this fix. I found no ill consequences as of yet but I can understand google taking it slow and reviewing it longer. Maybe they will find a better fix, but as of now this is the best thing we have.

this was confirmed working on the xda portal post by @crixley for the essential phone running a custom aosp/los based rom.
Big thanks to you!

Omg you're right it actually causes my phone to not boot. I wiped my entire phone thinking it was some kind of module conflict and now it still wont boot.

I bootlooped too. Flashing the stock boot image fixed it and my phone booted right to Android.

Once I flashed the stock boot image I lost magisk so that wouldn't work.

I wasn't worried about losing Magisk. I was trying to get my phone to boot.
@crixley what did you do to get it to work? For three of us it results in a bootloop.

Are you on stock or custom ROM?

Should have mentioned that. I am on resurrection remix and rooted.
Confirmed that it also bootloops on stock ROM, if you have ElementalX Kernel installed.
It seems that the stock rom isn’t close enough to aosp so this fix will only work on custom roms!
I edited the OP accordingly to the stock rom issue.
In the meantime can one of you guys on the stock rom do me a favour and check if you have libinputflinger.so and libinput.so located in system/lib and system/lib64 or if the libs are somewhere in vendor for you?
They exist both files.

It should be 4 files overall. libinput.so and libinputflinger.so have to be in system/lib and additionally in system/lib64.
but if they are in system and not in system/vendor then I have no way of fixing it atm I fear.
