Which do you prefer (or do you use both?) and why?
I currently have MotoXposed installed, and so far I'm happy with the minor tweaks that are available therein. I guess I'm just wondering if GravityBox is worth installing - I've read that these two modules can conflict with one another, and that GravityBox doesn't fix WiFi icon spacing. Thoughts?

I use both and they work terrific and kinda compliment the other. Keeps me happy, try it out yourself and see if ya like it.
I use both. MotoXposed for the circular battery icon (with white %) and GravityBox for everything else.

Is MotoXposed the only way to use Xposed on the Moto-X? I've never used Xposed before, and my phone hasn't gotten here yet (hasn't even been shipped, damn Cyber Monday backlog...) but I want to get it up and running ASAP.

MotoXposed is a module for Xposed. So anyway you'll have to install Xposed
Gravity Box has the circle battery indicator mod.... with percentage.
I only use Gravity Box.
MotoXsposed kept crashing systemui on 4.4, so I'm only using GravityBox now. It does everything I need anyway.

So I've had my Moto X for about a week now, and I just rooted with JCase's new RockMyMoto. Then I used MotoXposed to hide the ATT label and fix the wifi gap, but suddenly I realized the close all button doesnt appear when I open my recents menu. I honestly don't know if I just never noticed till now, or if I broke something.
Wait... Is that a custom ROM feature? Where the recent apps button becomes three horizontal lines like the clear all in the notification drawer? I've been on PA since I bought my GNex so I don't remember. The Moto X is so smooth I've never tried till now.

i was surprised when i noticed that button wasnt on the moto x; i could have sworn that was a default android feature. i got it back on my phone using the gravity box module on the xposed framework (its under "miscellaneous tweaks")
Does gravitybox work with MotoXposed? I only rooted to get rid of the ATT label and the WiFi gap an couldn't think of anything else I wanted to do. That's how slick this phone is! I'll live without it cause they extra RAM and horsepower don't make it necessary like my GNex and Kitkat has improved memory management when we get our "very soon" update

there are a few "issues" that have come up but they may not necessarily be major (depends on the user). i've noticed conflicts in settings that are in both modules, and since i didn't know which is prioritized over the other i probably spent more time than i should have tinkering/experimenting with both to see their cause and effects. with that said, i did manage to get both working together with everything done to my likings..
but like you said, this is the first android phone where i didnt want/need to do too many changes and im *extremely* happy i dont have to go the custom rom route as with all my previous phones

I really don't understand you very well. Anyway, if you talking about battery bar, the only one that can make that is this xposed module. I use it & works flawless.

Your phone needs to be rooted for that.
If you don't have a rooted device and you dont want to root it, you could try the following apps:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.calsto.omega.statusbar&hl=en
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.firezenk.ssb&hl=en
I used these apps till I rooted my phone, then I started using the xposed mode which is way better.
Omega and Super Status Bar will take some time to start up after you turn on device, till then, you'll see your old status bar.

Well, today I do not feel like explaining what is. Simply read what a xposed modules (& xposed framework too) is & what you can do with them. If you think that is just one bkg app running, I assume you don't know what those are. So, read a little more (& learn more) & you will realize that xframework is a all new world of possibilities. Have fun learning new stuff & have a nice day

If your problem is about the battery, I can tell you that xpsd framework & xposd mods maybe drain your battery only 0,0000001%. A lot of other apps that you have running on background or not sucks even more, so...Use what you think is better for you & have a nice day
I believe this is a known issue, but I haven't seen any updates about this in a while and I'd like to know if anyone has some ideas why it's happening or a workaround (other than uninstall Xposed, which works by the way).

There's an app called Irdeto fix. It said it wasn't available on my G3 but I sideloaded it after googling it and it works flawlessly. I just downloaded it and I have fully functional optimum. Just allow it on Xposed.

Thank you so much!!!!! This worked for me on my rooted Samsung Galaxy S5!!! This is exactly what I have been looking for! And now my Optimum app is working just fine. :good::good::laugh:
I just noticed you can't watch live TV on it though. At least I can control the DVR, which is really what I wanted it for anyway.

Yeah... i was so excited to get the app working and schedule my DVR recordings, that I didn't check to see if live TV works, and it doesn't. I'm really hoping there will be a fix for this soon.
I was hoping RootCloak might work to hide Xposed from the Optimum App, but last time I tried, it didn't work. Try giving that a go.

Yeah, I was hoping Root Cloak would work as well, that was my first issue. I actually stumbled upon a thread that said it wasn't a root issue, just an Xposed issue, which I didn't realize for the past like 2 years! That's how I found the Xposed fix for it. I even e-mailed the developer of Root Cloak to please include Optimum but I think it's two different things that are triggering the Optimum error.
Just curious I've tried googling it but when are we getting exposed modules? Do we have them already and I'm just naming it different or what's going on ? Thanks for any answers

Xposed doesn't work with Lollipop for various reasons. Rovo89 is working on it, but there is no ETA on it. My guess is that it won't be anytime soon that we see it.
There is apparently a different one in the works, that is similar at least in spirit to Xposed, but it isn't released yet (source).

Has anyone been able to get Xposed working on their Verizon Nexus 6 running Android 5.1? I've been trying all day and have searched and searched and followed all the workaround threads and nothing has worked. I cannot get Xposed working. I've tried the SELinux mode changer app, tried the initd script, tried flashing the zip that sets linux to permissive. Nothing is working.
So has anyone been able to get it to work on their Verizon NExus 6? If you did please share what method worked for you..

just out of curiosity what does xposed do that is so great that everybody misses. And I see people are very concerned about getting it back. I glanced at it quickly and it looks like an ad blocker and a couple other features that you can get with other applications. what am I missing?

Xposed got big because it brought customization to many phones that had root but locked bootloaders. It's a little less useful when you're on a custom ROM but there's a lot of app hacks. I like it to do simple things like save all my Snapchats without notifying people or unlimited skips in Pandora.
Not to mention some of the top devs prefer to work on Xposed rather than ROMs since it isn't device specific. So a stock 5.0.2 ROM with the Gravity Box module has more customization features than most of our current ROMs do. Here's the full module repository:

Xposed does a heck of a lot more than just block ads. The uses for it are almost endless. It allows almost limitless customization. Everything from UI modifications to, unlimited Pandora skips. It literally gives you all the options of a really really feature filled custom rom while still running the stock rom. Take some time and look through all the xposed modules for it and all the things they can do. That should give you an idea of how much you can do with it.

For me its the little things. Like crappalinks. Don't ya hate how tapatalk does a link hijack? Fixed. Want to use Google voice to text with Swype. Fixed. Hate the stupid "hey dummy, you are using a vpn, that you know, you like installed and set up and launched?" Fixed. Removes a lot of little annoyances that the custom ROM devs are too busy making the **** work to begin with to address.
Also, Gravity Box, lol. The last six months or so of my use of my old S4 was on a Google Edition ROM port. It was by far the best performing ROM, but it also lacked features, kind of like the stock based ROMs here. Gravity Box brought almost all of the features of custom ROMs to the GE ROM.

Xposed is a framework that allows you to "inject" new functions, settings, code into any ROM or app. For example, you may want a custom rom so you can customise your notification quick settings. With xposed, you can install a custom module that will allow that without changing the rom. If no rom has all the features you want, find the feature you want as an xposed module and add it.. Thats what the fuss is about. Its very flexible.,
Here is one of my favourite modules on this device...
What's everyone using to block ads until xposed is available again. Tired of ads popping up in apps and YouTube.

Actually I found out about adfree and tried it. Still get ads in apps. Of course YouTube still has ads too which I don't expect will be fixed until we get xposed back.
Xposed is awesome and I cannot wait to get it on 5.1. So someone asked what does it do/why use it? There are many reasons.
You want to keep the original OS after root but still want all of the features of cyanogenmod or whatever. Xposed has a lot of them and more. For instance you could set your verizon phone to tether with a click of a button, add a date in the top toolbar, change colors of things, add battery %, get rid of ads, etc. Just tons of awesome things. With my gNex I always just flashed new roms when I wanted new stuff. But with my moto X I wanted to keep the OS and still get those advantages so I used xposed and really liked it. Now with the n6 I again really like the OS so I do not want to flash a new rom so xposed it is (once its working).
I think xposed is the way of the future. No more flashing roms and stuff when you can keep your OS and just add features you want.
I really just use it to get most of the customization I used to get from custom roms without the hassle of having to flash custom roms all the time.
It will come to 5.1 just need a little patience, it didn't take that long to get it on 5.0 and that was a much bigger update.

Yes the Android modding scene has changed drastically in the last few years. I remember when I first got into modding Android on my Verizon S3. That was also when xposed first came out. 3 flagship phone generations ago. I remember waiting for the Verizon Jelly bean update. 4.1.2 Hahaha. Gold old days. (only 3 years ago. Lol). We had actual leaked insecure bootloader on the s3. The last Samsung device on Verizon to gave a legit unlocked bootloader. Not the work around line Loki or stupid safestrap on the s5. That's why I quit the Samsung line last year and got an M8. Now I have a Nexus. Quitting Samsung was a good choice though by the looks of it, the S6 in all its variants sucks. If I wanted an iPhone I would get an iPhone.
