Hello,
first off, sorry. I was stupid and didn't read into it before installing (or trying to install) Xposed to my Samsung S8. Yes, i've read now that it doesn't work with the official ROM, but now it's a bit to late.
So. After rooting my S8 today (using TWRP) i wanted to install Xposed. I downloaded an installer from this site because.. umm, i had a brain fart. For some reason my brain took that site as the official website, so i downloaded it from a 3rd Party site instead of the actual website.
I installed the apk and granted root access. After that i clicked on install and Xposed installed successfully. After that it obviously asked me to reboot my device, which i did. But now i am stuck on the Samsung screen of the boot progress. I know i could technically just wipe the phone (again) and start anew, but i'd like to avoid that if possible. I can access TWRP, but if i try to access the system files in the file browser, it shows "0MB" and i can't access them.
I tried downloading an uninstaller linked in this thread, but i don't know which one i should download.
Sorry again for me being so stupid and not reading into it and downloading from some weird 3rd Party site.
Thanks in advance for the help!
EDIT: And yea, of course i didn't create a backup before installing Xposed. So if there is no way to properly uninstall it, i gotta wipe everything once again

I don't have this device but, I believe that you should be able to flash (via TWRP) the Framework Uninstaller located on the following Official XPosed link. Just select the correct ARCH (ARM, ARM64, etc...) for your device.
http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/uninstaller/
If necessary, you can always try to obtain some additional member guidance and support from the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device and variants.

In the link provided by @lbuprophen use the arm64 zip uninstaller (latest version) to uninstall exposed.
Just curious how long did you let it try to boot for,mine took 10-15 minutes for it to do it's thing and boot up.

I tried that before, unfortunately without success. It also may be noteworthy that my brain turned off and downloaded the XPosed installer off some 3rd Party site. I know. Stupid. But it happened.

I waited over an hour for my phone to boot, before and after flashing the uninstaller. I also tried wiping it and even completely formatting the data, everything without any success. It kept on not passing the Samsung screen and eventually bootlooping.
I fixed the issue by just flashing the stock rom with odin and then reinstalling TWRP and rooting my device again. Will stay away from XPosed with this phone for now.
Thanks for the advice anyways!

You did what I would have probably done myself in this situation by starting from scratch.
I just wanted to let you know that I believe that I had saw somewhere (within the dedicated area of the forum for your device) that individuals were successful with Magisk XPosed.
Though I do understand if you want to stay away from XPosed until your ready again and I'm happy to see that your at least up and running again.
Good Luck!

I got the same even just after the installation of the apk for Systemless Xposed on an Xperia (XposedInstaller_3.1.5-Magisk.apk) found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268
I made a reboot as I like to isolate the issues while they happen. That was it: bootloop..

I've been reading thousands of forum entries on how to install the xposed framework for my device and I can't seem to get it. They all end the same way -- stuck at the Verizon logo screen.
I am using a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 on stock Lollipop (5.0.1). I only have the stock bootloader thanks to it being locked before I laid hands on the device, but I do have Flashfire, Root, SuperSU. Each time I fail, I use ODIN to flash I545VRUGOF1_I545VZWGOF1_I545VRUGOF1_HOME.tar and try again.
I have tried using a deodexed rom by flashing the above with ODIN, then using Flashfire to OTA update: I545_OF1_Stock_Rooted_Deodexed_ROM.zip
Next, install the XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk
I then tried flashing:
xposed-v71-sdk21-arm-arter97-V6-snapdragon
xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon
xposed-v86-sdk21-arm
They all result in freezing on the Verizon logo during boot.
I can flash xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430-arter97 on to the deodexed rom and it will work, but the Xposed Installer says it's not the most recent and all modules yield the same error:
This module requires a newer XposedBridge version (30) and thus cannot be activated.
Then I try with the stock rom (odexed).
I can flash:
xposed-v71-sdk21-arm-arter97-V6-snapdragon
xposed-v75-sdk21-arm-arter97-snapdragon
xposed-v86-sdk21-arm
Without a crash; So long as the XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk is not installed. If I install the XposedInstaller then try to flash, it hangs on the Verizon logo during boot.
Finally, if I flash the zips first, then reboot and install the XposedInstaller it will yield me the same result of not the most recent version and I get the requires newer bridge for all modules.
Because it's an S4 there are hundreds of forums and guides, but I can't find one that applies to me. That makes me either the worst internet researcher in the world -- or I'm missing something so obvious that it's embarrassing...well, humiliating.
Can anyone offer a suggestion? ...and yes, I've read every read only forum to the last line and every XDA Lollipop forum. I've reflashed my phone almost two dozen times trying different suggestions with absolutely no luck.
I was having similar issues trying to get xposed on 5.0.1.
Long story short I gave up and flashed 5.1.1 onto my Note 4 and used wanam's custom xposed framework.
Galaxy S4
I don't believe there is a stock 5.1 firmware for the Galaxy S4. More importantly, I have to believe you can install Xposed on the S4. I just hate feeling like I'm missing something so simple!!

That went faster than I expected. Going to give it a flash now.
Well, thank you for the effort.
It flashed very quickly and then rebooted without a problem, but the Xposed Installer still shows, "The Xposed framework is not installed. Please download the latest ZIP file from XDA and flash it manually via recovery." and all the modules say, "..requires a newer XposedBridge version (30) and thus cannot be activated".
I don't suppose you'd be willing to use FlashFire to make a full backup (minus your cache, of course) to share?

Thank you! I uninstalled Xposed Installer and rebooted. Reinstalled Xposed Installer, rebooted, then flashed the file again. Upon that reboot it did the, "Upgraded file xx of xx" and now it's installed!
I can't thank you enough!

Could you provide the steps you used to achieve this? Thanks!
Please explain how to do this.
Hello.
Can anyone explain the steps to install Xposed framework on the Samsung Galaxy S4 SCH-i545, rooted with stock ROM 5.0.1? I found and downloaded the two files noted in krusherkills123's post, but Flashfire only shows the XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4 under "Flash firmware package" where it brings up a blank "Partitions" screen and no options.
I used Flashfire to flash the other file, xposed-v85.0-samsung-5.0.x-sdk21-test-by-dkcldark.zip, which I hated to do since I have no idea what it actually does. Since I don't know what it does, I can't confirm that flashing it was successful.
Any help would be appreciated.
Same question here, rooted Verizon S4 I545VRSGPL1, can I install xposed? This is stock rom, rooted with kingroot then cleaned to use SuperSU
People have done with OF1, not sure about PL1, but they are not far apart
Thx!
Hello i'm new in the forum :fingers-crossed: i have an xperia m5 E5603 and i try to install magisk so i can use apps that i can't use with a custom ROM my device is already rooted with super su and twrp recovery is installed any help please
Hello and welcome to XDA.
There's a lot of information about how to install Magisk (and how to replace SuperSU with MagiskSU) in this forum already. If you look around you'll find it. Number one rule on XDA is to search before posting (I'm not kidding, look at the rules).
To start you off I can tell you that you need to first uninstall SuperSU. You can do that through the SuperSU app (full unroot, select to restore boot image if you have systemless root), or with the unSU script and then manually flash a stock boot image (you can do this in TWRP). After that you should be able to install Magisk by flashing the zip in TWRP. Since you're new, I'd recommend to stick to the stable v12 release for now.
If you encounter issues, here's a troubleshooting guide for you:

Magisk comes with it's own root, MagiskSU, no need for SuperSU (and for what you seem to want it for, SuperSU isn't compatible). You should probably start by reading through the release thread (the whole thing, it's not that long).
Some Sony devices have issues installing Magisk. This is known... If Magisk v12 doesn't work, you could give the v13.0 beta a go and pay close attention to the info in the TWRP output when flashing. If you do decide to go for the beta, please read through the first post carefully and follow any directions to gather logs to troubleshoot issues.
If you've read through all the info available (I've given you a few good links) and are still having issues, search the support thread for your issue (pretty much everything has already been covered). If you still can't get it going, make sure you post all possible details about your issue and lots of logs (there's also a section about "Asking for help" in the troubleshooting guide I posted earlier).

After lot of attemps i always got the same result a bootloop :/ thats happened before when i was trying to install the latest version of super then i release that i can only install an old version of super su but i dont know what version of magisk is recommended for my sony m5
I have xposed installed without a custom recovery by using Flashfire but Flashfire doesn't seem to be working without the paid version and I can't pay for it now because the app closes down for non paid users and the only way to pay for it is through getting onto the app. Can anyone help me out with this predicament? Is there any way for me to flash xposed uninstaller without flashfire or is there a way I can get flashfire pro that you know of? I can't make a custom recovery.
But you managed to use Flashfire to install Xposed?
So what changed between installing Xposed and now trying to uninstall it? Any new apps installed that might interfere with Flashfire?

Sorry, I should have added more detail I wrote this late at night.
I have an S7 and I'm using stock Marshamallow. Basically, you can use flashfire to flash the xposed installer zip and install exposed and when you want to uninstall it you just have to flash the uninstall zip and so on. I usually repeat this about once every 3 months to log in / out of Snapchat. However, Flashfire no longer works for non paying customers and the only way to become a paying customer is to get onto the Flashfire app and pay for pro. But, as soon as you open up the Flashfire app it checks for pro and closes down when it detects you aren't a pro member. So I'm stuck at the minute and have no way of uninstalling it without wiping my phone which I can't do yet. I was wondering if anyone knew a work around for this problem.
That's right... The freeloader time bomb went off a couple of weeks ago.
I believe some users have had success with setting their device time back to the end of March and then purchasing Pro.
Free loader lol. I didn't know the app even had a pro version I have only ever used it for a few seconds to flash a zip. They could have sent out a warning and earned a few extra £ ?. Do you have a link or guide to something that shows me how to roll back date and get onto flash fire to buy pro? I'm very amateurish on this I have no idea how I haven't bricked my phone yet. I'll have to put a back up on my pc. If I brick my phone how would I fix that by the way? Just factory reset from pressing the pin in and then get the back up from pc?
Anyone?
You can usually change the time and date in the Android settings.
For help and info on how to keep your device up and running, it's usually best to look for info in your device's forum. There's usually a guide section with stickied collections of info to use.
Thanks, I've worked out how to use date, anyone have a link or something on how to find the correct flash fire apk I need? I can't find anything on Google
You know that XDA has a pretty nifty search function as well, right?
Has anyone has success in installing this on Android 5.0 samsung S4 ? I followed the instructions and the manager just says not installed.

What details would you like to know? I flash it and then later restart but the manager was not there so I tried to install it from saving the apk file that I downloaded. But it just said it was not installed and later I found out I lost root from trying to flash Xposed on my phone.
I am very new to this and tried to follow the tutorials and videos but its not working cause I thought using Magisk I can install the seamless Xposed.
Those recovery/installation logs would be a good start.
You're muddling up the details a bit...
Was the Manager not installed or did it report that Magisk wasn't installed? And you lost root? But you said you couldn't install Magisk... Are you already rooted? That might cause issues.
Being nice and clear and detailed (what is being flashed, version numbers, what's already done, what works, what doesn't work, with logs, etc) in your descriptions would help.

I hope this is clearly for you!
1. I flash the file with TWRP with success
2. The phone got stuck on samsung logo
3. Root was removed.
4.I had to re flash stock and it is working again.
5. How do I get the logs of Magisk if my phone keeps looping?
I wanted to use Magisk to see if Xposed would work but it looks like i can't even get Magisk to work on my samsung i9500 with original rom. This same thing happens with Xposed where everything goes smoothly with flashing it in recovery and then a boot loop on the logo. Others on this forum have been complaining about this too and perhaps the developer might have not considered odexed rom like samsung for these wonderful apps to work?
I am going back to Kitkat where i don't have these issues and I can use Xposed.
Hello everyone,
I used Xposed for some days and I didn't have any issues. Yesterday I tried out some new modules and now I'm stuck with my rooted Galaxy S6 in a bootloop.
In most Solutions it is said that you have to remove "modules.list" form /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/
but I don't have a /conf folder.

There's a few other possibilities you can try...
The following thread is specific to the "Xposed Modules Desactivator".
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3372942
I can't endorse that myself since I've never personally tried it before but, it seems to work for some members.
You can also go to the bottom of the following threads OP and use its attachment...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24267797
... that's named the "Xposed-Disabler-Recovery".
It's a Recovery Flashable zip file aimed at just disabling XPosed itself and the modules won't load if it's disabled.
In addition regarding the disabler zip, it basically does the same thing via recovery as if you had opened up the XPosed Installer app and selected to turn it off. Then if you wanted to Enable XPosed, just open up the app and select to turn it back on again (of course you'll have to reboot the device to complete the Enabling of XPosed).
Good Luck!

Unfortunately none of it worked for me. I ended up doing a nandroid backup and flashing a random stable rom without doing no wipe before. Afterwards everything was fine again
