Of course it depend on the hack the module trying inject to the apps, but how its impact on performance if I change nothing of the code, just implement an exactly same method by XPosed module in theory?
yup...xposed kinda slows down my nexus 4 and my note 10.1 too much...
I have a Moto G and Xposed does not slowdown my phone not one bit.

Xposed slows your phone down an immeasurable amount...
The modules however... Can slow your phone to a crawl...
For me... Anything systemUI related makes my phone unusable...

Running a S5 and have not seen any slow down.
No hit in speed normally, but have when 30+ modules were active. Lol

Yes it solws down my wiko pulp fab 4g but mostly for the boot. The boot got sooooo loooong so i rather unistalled xposed and now i feel fresh i can turn down my phone or reboot fast. I regret all that time spent to customize the phone lol. But was a good experience.
After this long boot the phone speed was almost good. If you don't switch your phone off or reboot often it is okay.
My Zenfone GO ZV00D slowed down alot!
And I had only xblast tools, root cloak and mock location hide..
Several years passed, many devices changed. Xposed by itself does not affect to phone performance or battery usage at all. Maybe it because of specific module settings.
have been using it for a while now and there's nothing i love more but I just uninstalled xposed off my s7 edge on MM . was slowing down the phone a bit. had about 7 modules active. the benefits were worth the slowdown previously.
Okay so I'm really confused. I just had to get a refurb replacement for my Sprint HTC One because I accidentally bricked it and couldn't get it backed, took it to Sprint, they said it was water damage, blah blah blah. Whatever. So I get the new one in the mail, use it for a couple of days to make sure it's not broken, then root it.
All of that goes fine, with a couple of hiccups like flashing an outdated SuperSU. I use the TitaniumBackup from my previous phone to get all of my apps back. That goes fine. Note that I keep it a stock ROM.
Now here's the kicker.
I go to Xposed installer to install it. Normal install method won't work (it used to, but won't on this phone, probably because my old phone had a GPE ROM), so I switch to automatic install via recovery. So it installs, and- all of my mods work! Great! I disable Gravitybox since my phone is no longer on GPE and I come to a sudden realization. My multitasking won't work. I double tap the home button and it takes me back to the homescreen. It's like multitasking doesn't even exist. So I go through Xposed and disable all but the first mod, thinking I'll go through on by one to find the culprit. So I reboot with only the first mod active, and multitasking still doesn't work. Wha? This mod barely even does anything, much less to do with multitasking. So I think "Hey, maybe I should reinstall Xposed, that should fix it." So I uninstall Xposed and reboot, and viola, multitasking works. So now I wonder if it's Xposed itself that's screwing with it. So I reinstall Xposed, but don't activate any mods. I reboot, and sure enough, there's no multitasking. So it's 100% Xposed that's causing the issue, not a GPE mod conflicting with Sense.
What do I do?
Also note that the phone runs fine with Xposed enabled aside from multitasking not existing.
Thanks!
Hello Mates,
I just recently took over my girls' M7. Love the phone. I recently updated it to the lollipop factory ROM and now the phone is very hot. What can I do to reduce the temperature? I have Disabled many apps, since i'm rooted, i installed Greenify. But is there anything else? Perhaps an optimized kernel designed for this?
Thanks for any feedback,
Paul

Custom kernel is really the best way to reduce heat, make your phone faster, and extend your battery life significantly. Try few of them because you can get the oppsite effect from that you want to achieve with some kernels. As you can see from my sig, my suggestion would be to try Xceed

How is it getting hot are you gaming? , I have had my M7 since release and i have an temp alarm set for 45C and it has never went off, though i do not game.

Hello Mates, @tinderbox - When in 4.4 it would get Hot, but Warm when in Power Saving for overall usage, once I updated to Lollipop, it would get really hot all the time. I followed @donkeykong1 suggestion but used ElementalX Kernel, and selected the "Cool" profile" and you know what...it's cool even under normal use (non power save mode). I couldn't find the appropriate Kernel in the Exceed thread so...still worked. I'm not gonna run custom ROMs on this device, I have enough on my Sammies. I will look now for the AT&T debloater, since i'm not on AT&T.
Thanks all

Tou don't need a debloater, you can debloat your ROM by yourself now that you have custom kernel. Just use root explorer or Es file explorer which has root explorer and simply delete all bloatware and reboot
Hey guys,
I've just received my new Moto X XT1052. I've just unlocked the bootloader, and am now thinking about what to do. It's currently on Lollipop 5.1
I would like to put either Cyanogenmod 12.1 or Gravity Box onto it, but I can't decide on which one.
Gravity Box is good because it goes over the stock Moto rom, and I'd still be able to have the fun little tweaks that Motorola created for it, such as twist for camera etc...
Cyanogen would be good because it has functions that GB doesn't have, such as long-pressing back to force quit, number of home screens, and a few other things that are missing from GB.
Does anyone know a way of installing Cyanogen but retaining the Moto apps?
Also, do you recommend I stay with Lollipop? Or should I downgrade to Kitkat 4.4.4 (or thereabouts)
Many thanks!!
You cant have both CM and Moto apps.
But Moto Camera Mod can be flashed i think. AC Display can be used as Moto Display. Moto Voice cant be! There are 3rd party apps but nothing can be equal to stock app.
Also I prefer to be on Stock kitkat as the standby was good with it.
stock 4.4.4 +GB works best for me, may be Viper4Android for sound. That's all I need on my Xstock 4.4.4 +GB works best for me, may be Viper4Android for sound. That's all I need on my X
I'm on CM 12.1 now. The only unique Stock-feature what's missing are Voice Commands. "twist" for camera, "chop" for Torchlight, hand wave and pick-up for active display works.
The battery drain seems to be better in the latest nightlies (27/28.10.), but still not what i expect.
KK is no option for me, cause the Holo-design looked really ugly.
Holo-design? My battery life at the moment is terrible, maybe getting 6 hours from one charge?
If active notifications no longer work, how would I be notified since there's no notification light?

The designlanguage before Material (Android 4.0 ICS - 4.4 KitKat = Holodesign; since 5.0 Lollipop = Materialdesign)

Ok, thats really bad. With latest CM 12.1 nightlies I get about 4 hours SoT and about 16 hours mixed use. So it's enough for an average day in my life.

active notifications are available in CM 12.1! It is called Ambient display an has almost the same functions.
Could I get ambient display with cyanogenmod 11?
Thabks for your answers
there are some Apps in the store which promise features like Ambient display, but I haven't testet them. And I never used CM 11.
I have a Developers Edition, XT-1055, US Cellular. It is unlocked and rooted. And running Lollipop 5.1.
Just love it. So much better than Kitkat. Great battery life. No problems, just the annoyance of Lollipop from time to time. Sometimes I have to 'Forget' or is it "Unpair" my BT connection with my speaker, and then pair it again to restore the volume level. And I don't like "improved" feature(s) to set my phone to quiet or vibrate modes. Kitkat was much more intuitive in that aspect.
With TWRP installed, I can do a full backups of the phone.
The phone portion is better/easier to do, but less intuitive; as in easier touch functions but more touches to do a phone call. But the voice commands really scream with Lollipop. Motorola has it right. Recognizes my voice and commands, nearly flawless! So much better that when I was using KitKat. Great with driving. Now, if I could just remember those commands!! LOL!
Good luck with your decision.
I have an XT1053 Developer Edition, unlocked bootloader, TWRP, etc, and I run stock 4.4.4. mainly because of the battery life and the sensitivity of the Active Display feature. My second choice would be Nexus Experience ROM (NX) because it incorporates almost all of the special stock features of the Moto X, and it has a very stock experience. The only reason I don't use it is because the Active Display isn't as sensitive and I have to move the phone more to activate that feature. It's a small thing but I'm very picky. I may get over it and move to NX eventually.
As far as battery life goes, on 4.4.4 I unplug at 7am and by 10:30pm I usually have 50% battery left, sometimes more. However, I'm a Nazi when it comes to keeping unnecessary background processes from hogging power and/or using mobile data. But even when I watch videos and play music carelessly I've never been in the red. I don't even own a car charger. I can't speak about the battery life on NX ROM because I didn't use it that long.
I'm still considering moving to NX as I'm writing this... I may do a fresh backup of 4.4.4 and run NX today to see how it goes.
Edit: Btw, NX ROM for the Moto X 2013 is 5.1.
For those of us that don't want to root....Post up your success (or failures) with using PDP!!
I personally haven't done anything with it yet but it was helpful with my S6 Active. Hoping for someone a bit more gutsy than myself to see what is ok to disable and what we shouldn't touch.

Used on my S6 Edge Plus, installed on my S7 Edge, hit 'disable bloatware' and so far no issues. Still way too early to tell if everything is functioning correctly. I'd rather disable all recommended bloat and then see what issues there are (if any) than go one by one.
Might have to give this a shot, I hate the amount of apps that Samsung, AT&T and to some extent Google have loaded by default on the phone.
I just hit the disable all bloatware button. It took out samsung pay and my weather clock. After enabling all of the appropriate apps, the work once again.
It might have been smarter for me to go through this thread first which is what I am doing now. It's for S6 but I'm going to guess that most of it will apply.

I can't get the app to work. It won't activate the license. It tells me to disconnect proxy and VPN connections which I didn't know I was using. Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this? Do I need to give anymore information? I'm using an AT&T Galaxy S7.

Nevermind, I figured it out. It seems that AT&T uses a proxy on their cellular data. When I connected to WiFi the license activation worked fine.
I used it yesterday didn't get any extra sot with it and it seemed to make my screen go bonkers, it was extra overly sensitive so I took it off and my screen went back to normal, still sensitive but not nearly as bad
There is another app in Google Play,
If you have time, try to use this app "App Package Disabler (Samsung)" on Google Play
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kunkunsoft.packagedisabler
It work well
why use PDP? just use Debloater tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
I've actually had good luck disabling some services with this and freeing up RAM. Not sure how this works without root but it's nice to have. Still feel we need root for other things but this app worked for me.

I've been using Package Disabler Pro since I got my S7 Edge...
Battery life was terrible in the beginning and then I kept fine tuning and fine tuning and fine tuning until I eventually reached some good battery life but it wasn't consistent.
Then I tried the GearVR and it installed some more apps and battery life started to suffer again.
I wasn't sure what the issue was exactly so I kept fine tuning and adjusting. I read online that Package Disabler Pro can actually impact battery life if you disable too many apps.
So I went back and only disabled a minimal number of apps... Still battery life was back and forth... Some days okay but other days battery drain would be awful.
So just for fun, I uninstalled Package Disabler Pro and manually went through and disabled each Application/Permissions through the Application Manager one by one (System & User Apps).
Now my battery life is phenomenal!
Seriously, I am getting about a day and a half off one charge (almost two days) and a SoT of between 6-8 hours consistently <- obviously this depends on how heavy your usage is.
I just charged my phone today with 5 1/2 SoT @ 25% battery left and 1 day 12 hours since last charge.
Very excellent results... So if others out there are having issues, try uninstalling Package Disabler Pro and doing it manually. Sure it takes time but the results have been amazing for me.
Interesting - Package Disabler free is available on the store but not seeing the pro version, even though it was there last week. I wonder what's up with that?
It was pulled from the playstore, ez package disabler is still there and most think it works better.
I've used Package Disabler on every Samsung to disable the every app of AT&T Bloat. Although some **** still shows up in battery usage.
Hi,
I have been using EZ package disabler since I got my S7 Edge and I am happy with it. Unfortunately, when the software update came, with too much excitement, I forgot to enable all disabled apps prior to updating the firmware. I have updated the firmware with apps disabled. What problem should I be facing? What should I do? Currently I am not experiencing any problems but I suspect that the disabled apps where not optimized. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you.

RIght now, my apps edge appears that an update is available. But whenever I click the update, it won't update even if all apps are enabled. I am not sure if this was caused by the firmware update but this apps edge update just came up together with the firmware.

Thank you ! I debloated an S5 I was given using package disabler pro as my intention is to use it only for dash cam purposes , It has no SIM in it so I dunno if it will even get marshmallow update when it's available from AT&T, but if I do see an update available and am on wifi with it I'll re-enable everything. Thanks again !
