Xposed Framework S5[SM-G900A Specific] (Working Modules) - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

This thread is only for the AT&T branded (SM-G900A) device.
If this is not your device, you need to go to the corresponding forum/thread. I realize there are many similarities amongst the G900 variants, but the instructions I provide- as well as the help I can give, are limited to the AT&T (SM-G900A) variant only. Even then the help I can provide is still limited.
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible if you brick, break, or blow up your phone. You assume all and any responsibility for ALL actions you commit to your phone.
1) Xposed Framework
2) WanamXposed
3) Gravity Box
---I advise caution with this, as some of the features are built into the GS5 rom.
4) Greenify
5) X Tether
6) G-TouchWiz
Will post more later!
Notes :
*See the second page on how to activate the built-in wifi tether with Wanam Xposed and X Tether.
*See the second page to help reduce performance issues.
@profcx has pointed out that the "Download Booster Mod" is currently incompatible with the X Tether for Xposed.

Never mind

Downloaded X Tether from Xposed Framework , then go to wanam and click on system and enable "skip provisioning check" and rebooted. It alows me to turn on tethering and mobile Hotspot.

How to Remove Battery and USB Cover warnings
There has been some complaint about these warnings, so here goes:
1a) Download Xposed
http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
1b) Install it.
1c) Open it up, tap on "Framework," then tap"OK" on the pop up. Then tap "Install/Update"
2) Reboot.
3a) Re Open Xposed, tap "Download, " and search for "G-Touchwiz."
Or go here
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.gertlily.xposed.touchwiz
3b) Install it. Swipe from left to right and it will show the download options.
3c) Go to the main menu of Xposed, check the box for "G-TouchWiz" then reboot.
4) Find the "G-TouchWiz" app and open it.
5a) Under the "POPUPS" section there is:
"Disable battery cover popup on/off"
"Disable USB Cover popup on/off"
5b) Turn them off. (cryptic, huh?)
5c) Reboot.
Finished. You will notice that they did not annoy you... this time.

My G900A with the Xposed Framework, X Tether, Wanam Kit and Wanam Xposed installed, does not have "skip provisioning check" listed on either of the Wanam modules. Thoughts?

Open wanamxposed then go to System. Then check "Disable Tethering Provisioning"
If you don't have this, tell me what version of wanam you have.

Can somebody post a link or explain the benefits of installing Xposed and or wanam. I'm not a complete rookie but besides the few tweaks already on this thread, what else works on our 900As

What is Xposed Framework?
As far as Xposed/Wanam, these apps allow you to modify visual and technical elements of your phone's rom. These changes are temporary and can be reversed.
The Xposed Framework is intended to bring functions of a custom rom INTO a stock rom. One could say it is an alternative for phones in which the bootloader remains locked.

There are tons of modules, however only a few of them work with the S5 currently. You are free to explore, but use caution and common sense. If it's for an HTC, then don't use it.
This thread was meant to discuss which ones do work.

Well I downgraded my firmware to the G900AUCU1ANCE and now I can only get usb tethering. Amy ideas on how to enable regular tethering (not having to use a usb cable)

I'm using Greenify and GravityBox. Both seem to work with out errors. I tried Exchange Bypass, didn't work. and I tried Advanced Power Menu, that didn't work either.

How to Force Native WiFi Tether Galaxy S5 (Root)
Decided to edit this post to make more sense.
Follow the steps below to enable the built in wifi tether feature:
1a) If you haven't already, download the Xposed Framework app.
Xposed Framework Installer
1b) Open the app, tap "Framework," then tap "OK." Now tap "Install/Update."
2) Reboot
3a) Open Xposed, then tap "Downloads," then search for Wanam Xposed and X Tether. Alternatively you can go to:
Wanam Xposed Module (Repo)
X Tether Module (Repo)
3b) Once downloaded and installed, open the Xposed app. Tap "Modules." Now check the box next to each module.
4) Reboot. Again.
5) Open Wanam Xposed and tap "System." Then check "Disable Tether Provisioning."
6) Again, reboot.
Your native wifi should now function.

Did you follow the instructions for downgrade/unbrick fix at
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785185
Please note that the original instructions have been changed. Read through the entire thread and follow the instructions to fix this. Users have reported that they are able to update once again to the G900AUCU2AND3 firmware once complete. For more questions regarding this, please post in that thread.

I think it's easy to make this mistake but make sure you download WanamXposed and not Wanam Kit, which I think is close to the top which is why I selected it. It seemed to work for me but I started having problems and I realized it was made for aosp ROMs. Just putting it out there.

Just a heads up guys - the Xposed tethering mod is incompatible with the 'download booster' mod from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2785410
It's one or the other for now.
Later.

@profcx
Thank you for the heads up!
I will update the OP.

Noticed a performance decrease after doing this. However i can now share my wifi. Not sure what is better.

Performance Issues with Xposed (Solved)
Download and open up your favorite build.prop editor. Or just use a text capable app like ES File Explorer or Rom Toolbox.
1) Navigate to /system/build.prop
2) Go to the line"ro.storagesecure.support"
3) Change the value to "false"
4) Reboot.
Everything should be fine after that.

Can you please clarify exactly what this "ro.storagesecure.support=false" is supposed to fix? Are you saying this will fix the performance issue mentioned in post 18 or will this fix native tether in some cases?

I've Samsung galaxy note 2. Updated to 4.4.2. Rooted. Response screen of root checker attached for reference.
When I try to install the framework on clicking the apk file, the installer starts and shows the warning messages. However, the install button at the bottom does not click - seems to be disabled. The cancel button cancels the process. Screen shot is attached for reference.
I've enabled unknown sources under security. I've tried with stopping and disabling the anti virus programmes - Avast and AVG.

the problem is not for framework installer but an App that control screen display.
solution is kill any App with a simple task manager before launch installation Apk.
it's tested, I have a note2
Which app?
Thanks fixfast.
I'm pretty sure that the framework works on Note 2!
Where should I start looking for "Apps that control the screen"? Don't all Apps control screen in some manner?
I may be wrong, but I doubt if its an app controlling screen is causing the problem. Only the "Install" button is disabled, the "Cancel" button is working fine. So installation of the apk is disabled, even though I've enabled unknown sources under security.
I've taken this question to general Note 2 help thread as I realised that this problem is only not with Xposed installer apk, but other apk's as well. I don't know when this behaviour started as I have installed apk's in the past.
Any pointers on how to proceed?
Thanks,
Vikas Garud
SOLVED
Thanks everybody. "Copy Bubble" APP was the culprit. After disabling it, the install button was enabled.
Incidentally, I searched for "Screen Filter" in play store. This APP was not in the search results.

Fix for xposed when the phone lags

Hello everyone. Many users have problems with slowing phone after installing xposed. The same applies to me. No one has yet found a solution that would suit everyone. But I found something that might help someone. This is in a forum where solves slowdown S-Health application for Samsung. While I do not have Samsung (I have Jiayu G4S), so I tried it. I'm simply install certain module "XSecureStorage" in Xposed and really my phone runs without lags
Link here:
http://forum.freelatestmovies.org/note-4-tmobile/general/fix-how-to-fix-xposed-framework-lag-t2935423
Copied text from this URL:
Found and confirming a method on how to get the latest version of Xposed Framework working on Note 4 (T-Mobile SM-N910T). Also Wanam Xposed is working fine too inside Xposed Framework.
Step 1:
Insure that Xposed Framework is fully uninstalled from the device temporarily.
Step 2:
Go into Root Browser, or any browser of choice that has root privileges and go to /System/Build.Prop and open it as a text document.
Step 3:
Inside the Build.Prop file look for a line that says "ro.securestorage.support=true" [NOTE: IT IS THERE I PROMISE YOU, a bit hard to find] ...*I do not have this line*
Step 4:
Build.Prop finnished file
Change "ro.securestorage.support=true" to "ro.securestorage.support=false"
Step 5:
Go back into Xposed Framework, install and reboot and you MAY be fine. Most users will need to continue here. If you still have issues there are 2 methods to fully fix Xposed and S-Health
[Option 1: Download a fix module after Xposed re installed after the Build.Prop fix]
[Option 2: Disable S-Health completely]
Thanks to Compusmurf for mentioning about this module
Option1:
Step 1:
Go into Xposed Framework, download a module called "XSecureStorage"
Click Framework and hit Install/Update and you are good to go! If this module doesn't do the
trick, try Option 2. Option 2 is guaranteed to work since you will be disabling S-Health all together.
Option2:
Step 1:
In Settings App>>Application Manager find "SHealth" and select "Turn Off"
That will guarantee for Xposed to work fully fine with no lag. Leave a Thanks if this worked for you and post back if any questions or issues!

As with any custom rom's, root, add-on's, you assume all risks with modding your phone. You have been warned.
Make sure you read all of my directions below, before you start posting errors with the install. Worst case you just have to start over with @OvrDriVE s installation.
Here is the way you can install xposed on your phone after you have root. I in no way have made any files or apks, I am just posting ways you get this loaded on your phone.
Please Thank the devolopers and others that have made all these files and apks possible..

5. Open FlashFire on your phone. Once it is loaded and open, click on circle with + button on the bottom right of the screen.
Then Click on Flash ZIP or OTA button.
Now select the xposed framework zip that you downloaded from #3.
Next you click the check mark on the top right of
the screen( do not change any of boxes on the left of the screen.<<< You Have Been Warned!!!!! .
Next scroll to the bottom of the screen and click the left button (flash button w the lighting bolt)

Confirmed working on my VZW Note 7 running PH1 firmware, rooted using @OvrDriVE's method.
Edit: for clarification, I used the second method (flashfire) to do this, and it worked like a charm.
Side note, you won't find Wanam Xposed 1.3.0 Made for Samsung Android 5 and 6 Roms by Wanam on xposed, it doesn't exist. Don't use Wanam Xposed either, it's been discontinued in favor of xTouchWiz. I've tested it myself and it works great, it's made by the same developer.

Ok, 1.3.0 does exist on xposed app, and yes you can use xTouchwiz by wanam as well, both are good, xtouchwiz has alot of stuff removed that will not work with the new firmware but he also removed alot of stuff that he didnt think was needed, so you can try both out and you can decide what you want to use..I have used both and they both work.. Now unfortunately Wanam will not be updating any of these, but is only providing support only..

Apologies, looking at that module and it's description (saying it was only for lolipop) I figuredit wouldn't be good to install on 6.0.
I also went to it's dev page on XDA and it was stated that the module is no longer being supported.
Save for later!!
So really this works just like normal except using Flashfire. I got scared thinking I would white knuckle it like the root. Any other module issues? Using several of them? I like some of the small play store tweaks and battery saving modules on other phones, I know wanam has the only safe 'do everything gravity box for touchwiz' stuff.
Im not sure why, but after installing this to my note 7, The "Android is optimizing # of #" comes up and it optimizes 1 app only... It won't go away and everytime I reboot It happens. I sort of want xposed, but if this is happening everytime I can just go without it....
It stays on or you just get the normal startup type message that lasts for a few seconds? Does it affect anything else? Seems minor.

Were you replying to me? It does 1 of 1 every boot. Its more annoying than anything really. Not worth the trouble. And if I uninstall it, the optimizing screen goes away. No one else is complaining about it so its just my problem.
So what xposed apps have been testing and what are all of you using? I haven't used xposed in a couple of years and the modules I liked seem outdated, and I'm afraid to use them. A lot of them say they are only for AOSP and to not use on Samsung and other modified forks. I was surprised at the amount of modules which were totally outdated, I'd say at least half or more were from 1-2 years ago or longer since they were last updated.
Biff I'm getting that issue as well. The first reboot it optimized all 359 of my apps, but now on every reboot it optimizes just 1 of 1 app, only takes a few seconds but it is annoying. I'm finding little utility in xposed anyhow so am not sure I'm going to bother keeping it. I didn't find the oldies but goodies like wanam, something to turn off the volume nag if too high, gravity box was very explicit not to use on Samsung, etc.
Yea I don't really seem to use anything is xposed anyways. The 1 of 1 thing is quite annoying! No one else seems to think that! I think im just gonna pass on installing this for a while..
I'm not getting the constant optimization like you guys. I did get all at once after adding it.
I'm using Amplify, GlobalS-health, Greenify, Play Store Changelog, XHangouts and Wanam's XTouchwiz, though very lightly on the last.
Optimizing apps on reboot went away after 4 or 5 reboots. Enjoying xposed but still hesitant to install modules.

Really happy about this work so far. Great job and good guidance!
Ran a quick "safe" test with xTouchWiz by moving the clock from default (right) to the left side. It worked (after phone restart).
Excited, I tried System/Disable tether provisioning... Restarted the phone. Works.
Awesome.
I also have the "Optimizing 1 of 1" issue previously mentioned, but it's not often I reboot, so not too worried. Wondering if there is a way to get a log for which file is being optimized. Always good to know what's happening.

Atleast I know its xposed that is causing this... I believe there is a way to get logs, but I am unsure how to do this or where to get it... I rarely reboot as well, but its just bothersome to see it doinh that.
Awesome module I discovered while trying to figure out how to get rid of the ugly roaming triangle this root puts on the signal bars. It's called Flat Style Bar Indicators, some free stuff and a very nominal cost for full version. I also see that the root took away the carrier name, which can be added back with this module. You can change any aspect of the status bar, it's very cool. I made my signal bars look like an iPhone, much easier and clearer to read.

It does but navbar might break system UI, is there anyway to fix UI thru adb?

Awesome module I discovered while trying to figure out how to get rid of the ugly roaming triangle this root puts on the signal bars. It's called Flat Style Bar Indicators, some free stuff and a very nominal cost for full version. I also see that the root took away the carrier name, which can be added back with this module. You can change any aspect of the status bar, it's very cool. I made my signal bars look like an iPhone, much easier and clearer to read.

Okay, I was skeptical at first, but realized I need to fly soon and wanted to stimulate the green battery icon in case security thinks this is a recalled Note 7. There's been so much press about the green icon meaning the phone is safe that *not* seeing one may have folks thinking it's not...
Results with this module exceeded my expectations. And no more voLTE...
Edit: Turns out this didn't permanently resolve the issue where VoLTE appears. It comes back and will linger until reboot. We'll need a real fix, either by a flashable zip or need/updated Xposed module.

Fix dec 2016/jan 2017: Snapchat on rooted android device running xposed.

POST IS UPDATED REGULARLY.

Salutations. (That means 'Hello').
NOTE: For those who are interested, I will include background information about how I came to the solution. All that other jazz too. First and foremost however; the fix!
SOLUTION:
Right at the top of the post, you will find two links. This being a new account and all (don't ask), until I create 10 posts I cannot include any outside links. So once I've done so, I will update the post.
STEP **: So at the top of the post, there are clearly two links. 64-Bit Android devices are becoming increasingly common. This architecture may pose a few problems. give the application framework. Should you own a 64-Bit device, I recommend installing this application too (LINK 2). This will theoretically prevent any obstacles.
Pre-requisite(s): Make sure you have the 'Snapchat' application installed. It is recommended to have installed the latest update from the Google Play Store.
STEP ONE: Download the application appended to LINK 1. This is called Parallel Space. You might recognize the name (its creators are the same who allow you to seamlessly virtualize Windows OS on Mac OS).
STEP TWO: Launch the application.
STEP THREE: You should be prompted with a grid-like interface. Here you will be greeted with a range of familiar icons. In the top right corner of each icon, you will notice a blue check-mark. Make sure that there is one next to the 'Snapchat' icon. This will ensure that the app is 'cloned'.
STEP FOUR: In the 'Parallel Space' app, tap on the 'Snapchat' icon. This will launch the application.
STEP FIVE: From here it is pretty self-explanatory. You are greeted by the standard 'Snapchat' interface. Tap on 'Log In'. Then proceed to do so.
STEP SIX: 'Snapchat' should be functioning as normal.
STEP SEVEN (BONUS): During testing, this worked on and off. --
Remain logged-in to the 'cloned' 'Snapchat' application within the 'Parallel Space' application.
Then proceed to launch the stock 'Snapchat' application.
Next attempt to 'Log-In'.
Should this operation be successful, you are then free to uninstall 'Parallel Space' and any related assets from your device.
HOWEVER, I personally do not recommend this. When logging out or updating the 'Snapchat' application, errors may be re-encountered.
Instead, I recommend that if possible, do use the stock application, but leave 'Parallel Space' installed. Using the stock app will improve efficiency and reduce the load on system resources. But keeping the 'Parallel Space' application on the device, well; you get the point.
Enjoy the fix! If it does not work, please let me know [Device Name and Model No.]. I've tested on various devices, succeeded every-time. Do keep in mind that this is a loop-hole, so may be patched in future or not work at all for some devices.
Background (Because I know someone will ask): The idea came to mind while using a LG G5 as a daily driver. I had tested every custom ROM available for the device. The problem was that with custom ROM's, there was always an issue, Malfunctioning sensors, camera's not working persistently, etc , etc.
The G5's stock ROM left me wanting more. The overbearing interface made it a living hell. Plus, the device just being rooted (NO XPOSED) meant that 'Snapchat' did not work. I looked for fixes for a time, but could not find any.
Development of ROM's for the device is on-going, and I am an active member. But I just couldn't handle not being able to use the camera (one of the device's best features) and no accelerator, screen-rotation, etc. So I went back to stock again. Do keep in mind that I was alternating/dual-booting between custom and stock ROM's just because of the camera; mainly.
This most recent time. instead of flashing stock MM, I flashed stock N for the G5. For 850, it has been officially released in some countries, and a manual flash via TWRP was a peice of cake.
This update is a lot better. I am running Nova Launcher again. So it makes it look a little better. Themes have also been improved. I am using an in-built dark one which makes the device look a lot better aesthetically. Additionally, I'm rocking a white carbon-fibre skin on the exterior; improving grip and overall security. The only issue was again, no 'Snapchat'.
After a few days, I had the idea to attempt this. I tested my theory and it worked! That's it.
Please do keep in mind that I will update this post as often as possible.
P.S This was tested just after updating to the latest version of 'Snapchat' which was a significant update. It included Shazam, Groups, etc. So you know, pretty cool that it worked.
Did not work on Google Nexus 5 running Android 7.1.1. Still gives error message saying that I can't connect to the server.
Same here, not working on freshly reinstalled and rooted 7.1.1 Nexus 5x. No Xposed, no nothing. I get the infuriating "temporarily failed" message in both cloned and regular modes.

I'm pretty sure if you get Xposed framework, there's a module that allows you to hide root from apps. Problem is that there is no Xposed framework for Android 7 yet. Hope this helps.

I personally tried the module on cm13 but it doesnt work for me. I think that somehow snapchat knows when you use xposed too.
The thing is that on aosp roms with root already build in sometimes snapchat do not catch it but if you have xposed, no way you can get in. For that freaky snapchat app here is what i did: install any rom, if if had root build in i then install su uninstaller zip with twrp then log in into snapchat and after that, rooting with super su zip again. The catch is that once you log out of the app and attempt to log in again, you cant get in and you have to repeat the proccess. It's annoying as hell!!! They need to disable the security check, if people want to cheat che system somehow they will, so whats the point. Also there are much more tweaks for jailbroken iphones and they have no problem with it .
Sorry for the rant here buqt im super frustrated.

That's the only solution I've seen working so far. unroot and reroot. Root cloak doesn't work, parallel doesn't work. I should've logged in before rooting and I hate to do it again.
Any work arounds yet? I've seen ppl do it using titanium backup but I'm not sure if that works. Can anybody help?

I have been searching and searching and still haven't found a way to sign into snapcat. It took me about 6 months to be able to find out how to root my phone.

Well todays your lucky day.
Step one turn off xposed.
Step two reboot
Step three sign into snapchat
Step four turn xposed back on
Step five reboot
You should be able to snap now.
Okay. I will try this on monday and will let youknow how it goes. Right now I decided to unroot to use snapchat, so I didn't loose my streaks. Thanks in advane will let you know how it goes.

Now that i think of it, when i uninstalled xposed it didn't work still. but after i "fully unrooted" through Super su and tried to sign in it worked. so it has to do with root or maybe both but the xposed didnt work for me. Thanks even though it didn't/wouldn't have worked for me!

Snapchat detects xposed framework.
Though at a time they did do root they since moved to blocking xposed due to the security concerns with money and also privacy of the user.
Though with certain phones and ect that could be the case I am using a s5 and have no issues.
just install magisk and systemless xposed and turn on magisk hide in magisk manager now snapchat won't detect root
then when u wanna log in just turn off xposed in xposed installer and reboot "it won't take time booting optimizing app when reactivated now" so reboot is easy
and u can have multiple accounts by backing up snapchat with titanium backup and don't ever log out just wibe its data and when u want to relog just restore the backup
and if u want to have multiple accounts access just patch the titanium backup with luckypatcher and have multiple backups (accounts)

make a nandroid backup if u want
1- full unroot by opening supersu and going to settings and press Full unroot and wait till it finishes and restart
2- download xposed uninstaller if u have xposed framework installed and flash it
3- install magisk manager from playstore
4- download and flash last magisk which is (12v) now from : https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
5- flash magisk v12.0 which you downloaded now your phone will have systemless root
6- go into magisk manager app and go to settings and toggle "Magisk Hide" (ON) and restart now your root is hidden
7- remove your current xposed app and install this one : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/material-design-xposed-installer-t3137758
8- flash systemless xposed : https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268
9- reboot and go to the xposed installer app and toggle the xposed off or on as you want when u restart it won't take time optimizing apps like before so fast now
your root is hidden now but xposed is not but you can disable it and enable it easily
Instead of using Parallel Space (which I believe to be insecure) use Island to clone your apps. It's a little more advanced to setup, but it's a lot more secure. It works for rooted and non-rooted devices. On the 1st page of the thread, it explains how Parallel Space and others repack the apk file locally, which is dangerous. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/closed-beta-test-incoming-companion-app-t3366295
Island never repack apk file locally, which is inherently insecure for users, since all your app data (including password input) are technically in the hand of MoboClean. (The same applies to other similar tools, e.g. LBE Parallel Space)
Instead, Island takes advantage of the underlying mechanism used by "Android for Work". This ensures that all your apps run natively in Android system and their data are securely stored in internal location of Android which is never accessible by Island. It has the same level of security as "Android for Work".

Be sure to read the disclaimer!!! The app is still only available in closed beta at the time of writing this, and could possibly cause you're device to bootloop or even possibly brick it, but root, xposed, or other modifications {in my opinion) has a higher chance of bootloops or bricking your device.
You follow the same steps in island to clone snapchat as you would in Parallel Space to login to snapchat. It might be possible to use the play store inside island to download snapchat inside island and login that way. I can't remember exactly how it works. I believe that island is a good way to test apps in a "sandbox environment" to keep the data excluded, safe and secure from the regular apps that you have installed outside of island.
I use Magisk now which bypasses SafetyNet which is what snapchat uses to "block access" to modified/rooted devices.
Probably the easiest method is to download Casper which is an alternative snapchat client that allows you to save snaps, and many other features that the official snapchat client can't do. Find Casper at www.casper.io
FYI Netflix has started to change how they do things as well by hiding the app's play store page from devices that have been modified or rooted, but it's still possible to simply sideload Netflix for now.

Hide settings wont save

Hi,
i have an Moto Z with latest stock rom and magisk 14.2 installed via twrp.
The problem: When i tick an app in hide settings, the entry wasnt saved. When i leave magisk and open the hide setting again, the app wasnt enabled for hide, i can tick it again and gain but it wasnt save.
Can someone help, whats the problem ?
IIRC, the Moto Z is one of the devices with a broken f2fs implementation. The Magisk image can't be mounted, so there's no Hide list to save anything to...
IIRC again, you should be able to get it working if you enable Core Only Mode in the Manager settings, but any apps added to the Hide list will be reset on a reboot.
You could also take a look in your device's forum if there are any custom kernels available with a f2fs fix.
Thanks for the explanation. The Moto Z has unfortunately no good dev support. So i found out that after reboot i must untick the hide option in magisk setting and tick again, then i can tick my app for hide and it was remembered, until next boot.

I am using version 14.0 and have experienced the same problem.
Check the logs stored in the /cache folder to determine the cause.
solution:
Create a folder called /magisk/.core and create an empty file called hidelist in it.
shell command:
mkdir /magisk/.core
touch /magisk/.core/hidelist
I have the same idea but the file system is read only. How to make it rw?
I'm using stock Note 3 (N9005DXSGBQA1) and followed instructions for magisk manager. I got it rooted but magiskhide does NOT work - NOT SAVING ANY SELECTION.
I tried using "core only" and tried inserting a new hidelist but both failed. I badly need the hidelist feature. How can I make magiskhide work? Thanks

Three years later... (I'm still using my Note 3 from 2013, btw)... and did you ever find a solution to this problem? I'm using Magisk 20.3 now, and it still does not keep the "Magisk Hide" option enabled after closing the app.
So enable it, I open the app and go to settings and enable it from there. I must then back out and close the app for the Magisk Hide option to become available under the menu. If I back out of the app again, whatever I had checked as hidden under the "Magisk Hide" menu becomes unchecked again. If I reboot the phone, I have to go back into settings to enable Magisk Hide again.
Any solution for this other than use another device?
