Just got it working. Had to google the .apk file for xpsoed installer and gravity box. I can now tweak my s5 with no issues. Root is required of course

be careful on giving people wrong expectations. Gravity box does not work 100%, must stuff does, but still not 100%, for ex. clock size, AM/PM hide/size is not working.
Everyone needs to be extremely careful about using things that arent made specifically for our devcie.. with no custom recovery available anyone can seriously screw up their device with unsupported xposed modules. I would not recommend this at all.
i recommend using wanam xposed over gravitybox. it is specifically made for touchwiz and supports the s5.
Doesn't work for me at all. It just force closes on me.

I would not recommend this either. Gravity box is more for AOSP devices

I agree with freebee
Wanam Xposed (NOT WANAM KIT/ ANY OTHER WANAM MODULE) is probably the most compatible for the S5, as it it built with touchwiz. Even with that, however, not everything works. Lockscreen mods don't work, some theming things don't work, and sms mms settings are not stable.

You should give it a try. I use it for additional setting for the notification pull down and screenshot. I'm using it on my

i have been using Xposed for some time and love it especially Greenify and Wanam. i did setup screenshot with GB and that is really nice that it is right there for any screen with the power menu. i was tired of taking pictures of my watch
Tasker i have been watching since its launch on Play but with limited time between work, kids, electronic addiction i just never spent the time to get into it. your BT auto connect is going to push me into understanding it.
thanks

What hacked Pandora?
Sent from my GT-N8013 using XDA Premium HD app
He means a modded Pandora .apk that implements unlimited skips and no ads.
Try downloading a different version somewhere off the net, cant say where but there is a bay full of pirates somewhere out there that has a lot of versions.

Both my parents have the note 4and regularly used the hacked Pandora on their note 3's. Now when we try to install the Pandora it won't install it will on every other device through. The one from the play store WILL install but the hacked will. The phones are NOT rooted. Has Samsung implemented some new security technology that checks for changed apks? *note the does note install screen does not give any message except for does not install

If you have ART turned on it won't work. ART fixes a bunch of loopholes for running hacked apps. Just an FYI, most pirated apps won't work after lollipop update.

Yea, if you have ART Runtime enabled, 9 times out of 10 the Pandora App will not work.
You can also get an ART version of the app if you want to stay on the runtime.
If you look in the must have root apps thread, you'll see someone using Pandora Patcher as an Xposed module. It's very easy to install if you are rooted. Works great also. As for the patcher itself, just Google it.

It used to work on 5.0, but has issues with 5.1 . There is a lot of modules that don't work properly on 5.1 apparently. http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/discussion-xposed-modules-5-1-lolipop-t3075257 <- There is a list of ones that work and don't.
There is also a Google Doc that has a list of ones that work and don't.
I would assume they are working on getting it to work with 5.1, but no clue what sort of progress they are making.
Ok so I have been away from rooting for a while. One of the main reasons I root is because of ad away
What are some cool things you can do now the phone is rooted
Share here please
You could theme your phone's UI, icons, sounds, and animations, customize certain actions (such as double tapping the status bar to turn off your phone's screen), and uninstall apps that were previously permanently in your phone, since you have access to the system partition.
You can also get Xposed, which has modules that will let you do the stuff I've mentioned and much more.

Because Samsung used their own tweaks on ART, and so far Xposed hasn't been made to work with it (possibly never will be either).

First thing I did was the torch mod I posted in this forum (link from the S5 forum, but works perfectly with this model as well). Hate having to unlock the phone to turn on the torch..
I downloaded Titanium Backup and froze apps
Oh ya, and ad block
Edit: added viper4android, busybox and Greenify. I almost forgot about Greenify! Switched from ADP to AdAway.
Tried Wakelock Detector but it doesn't work Xposed doesn't work either.

Or use your file manager of choice to rename the app sdm.bak ... I do this for all my unwanted apps once I get root.
Nothing against TiBu, I just like digging in there and seeing things first-hand.

Give them some time to look at it. We've only had root for about 24 hours. I'm working on a couple things, like brightness slider removal, volume boost, and hopefully making it so both the WiFi and LTE icons aren't always on at the same time. Should have some of these by this weekend.

It's been an issue with TW lollipop since xposed was released for 5.0. It doesn't look like anyone is working on getting it fixed as far as I can tell. Maybe with root on such a popular device (unlike the S5) we'll see more work on it soon. I hope so.

I'll keep you in my prayers lol but this has been an issue since xposed for lollipop came out, it never played well with touchwiz. Crossing my fingers for a fix soon.
