[Q] Change language (locale) on per APP basis - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Most apps take on the same language as the system language and there is usually no way of changing that unless there's an option in the app itself. However, on my KitKat Phone i could use the xposed module AppSettings and change “locale“ for every app to my liking.
I have an app that i want to be in german (its just not functional in english), but i dont want to change my 100 other apps and the whole system from english to german.
Anyone knows a way on Nexus 6/lollipop without xposed?
Any help is appreciated

I'm looking for the same solution. Anybody?

I also need this for android Nougat, because there is still no xposed for it.
A Magisk module would be great

use xposed module.

hope it helped even if this is old

[Q] should I try xposed for 2nd time???

I've karbonn s5+.first time when I install xposed it was running very well.but I installed 40+ modules & my phone stucked at android logo. Now I've factory reseted my phone. Can I install it now without problem
This bug must be about modules are clushing ır crossing i don't know which word can explain it, let me introduce you; for example you are using there module for status bar, they all trying to modify status bar but this situation causing excaption or something similar. I don't know i was wrote what was in my brain because my English is is little bit bad ?, so you can reinstall it but do not forget intalling that modules supporting lollipop.
Does xposed framework supported on mediatek like karbonn s5+. I searched about it and got
"Xposed framework is an AOSP framework for ARM devices. One of the things you can do with the framework is download a module that allows you to set DPI for any application. That allows you to choose tablet mode for an app, or simply make the text look more to your liking for anything, There are many other modules available."
If it work anyone's mediatek like karbonn titanium s5 plus then please tell me the procedure of making xprivacy module work on this device.

I have a Casper VIA V5 ,which have Meditek processor, and i am using it without any error, so i can say it's working like a charm?
Edit:Casper never given me any source code of phone, i wanted this from them to build my own CyanogenMod so i find Xposed for customizing firmware of my ROM. My phone has Android Kitkat 4.4.2 and Xposed which work perfect with its firmware

App Settings Module for Magisk?

hello,
i used the xposed module "app settings" version 1.13 with android marshmallow before i updated to nougat. this module enables you to change DPI, font scale, locale, force fullscreen, persist in memory, etc. on a per app basis.
here is a link to the module:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...2014-05-14-t2437377/post63835421#post63835421
i have not found any possibility to get this working on nougat as there is no xposed for nougat and it seems there is no more custom rom with these options.
is it possible to get this module working with magisk?

Downgrade to marshmallow or write xposed for nougat. The first is easy, the second will make many people happy over here.

Just to clarify on the above response: No.
Thanks Op, I also would love to have App Settings equivalent on Magisk or stand alone. Turns my 6.44" Mi Max into a desktop chrome browser almost

It would be just ultra hard to code that, or just impossible.
years ago (before xposed got famous) some custom roms (paranoid,...) had these functions.
i would go back to marshmallow only because of this missing features but there is no marshmallow rom for my new oneplus 5.
is it really impossible to get it working with magisk? the code itself (version 1.13) worked without any problems on marshmallow.

You'll need to manually edit files and apps and Magic Mount them with Magisk. Alternatively you could possibly do some things with some cumbersome scripts. Magisk can't change code of running apps, just replace/add already modified files and run scripts at boot.
In other words: No, IMO it's not worth the extreme hassle and you won't get the same thing as you would with Xposed.

thanks for your answer!
do you have more information about these "cumbersome scripts"? maybe it would work with tasker and a script per app.
i would be very happy...i like my smartphone much more with these features.

I wasn't gonna open up that can o' worms, but since you brought it up... :laugh:
Look up how to work with shell scripts. Tasker can run those (among other things). You could probably do some stuff with the resetprop tool as well (look here for details and syntax).
Don't expect miracles though...

"App Locale 2" for Xposed can help you
And you can get Xposed systemlessly with Magisk.
Thank you so much for the advice.
My phone is 1st generation Pixel with latest android, mgaisk installed. I will try to figure it out.

Android Auto Keyboard

Hi I'm looking for a way to modify the Android auto APK in order to allow for languages other than English.
An Xposed module would probably work, but no Xposed for Android 8 yet and I don't really like having to downgrade to 6.
Any ideas ?

[Help] OP2 App Locale module problem

Hi guys.
I am using OP2, and recently I came back to MM for Xposed. On OOS 3.6.0 atm. In the past I was using App Locale/App Settings, to change language for few apps that I have. Curently it does not work for me. Other modules do, like Gravity Box or some Instagram Download videos stuff.
Using Magisk aswell, installed the Magisk Xposed module as an extra, but it did not help.
Anyone have any ideas, please? Maybe there is other way on Xposed to change language of an app without using either of these two, nto working for me, modules?
Regards!

Xposed Installer with different package name

Hi, I'm trying to change the package name of the apk of the Xposed Installer...
I tried with the material design xposed Installer:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/material-design-xposed-installer-t3137758
The first time I changed only the name package and the app doesn't recognize xposed
The second time I changed every de.robv.android.xposed.installer in the manifest in de.robv.android.xandro.installer but the app doesn't open...
I'm trying this to hide the Xposed Installer from Remote Play PS4 that doesn't work with xposed installer Installer (It recognize the .xposed in the name package) (and yes I tried sudohide but It doesn't work for me, maybe because of android9)
Anyone with more knowledge can help me?

Not sure if this helps but using xprivacylua there are some custom hooks you can download to hide the exposed installer app. Worth a shot.

To be honest, I do believe that XPosed is detected by the Framework Binaries and not the App specifically (or Solely).
For example, if you were to look at an App's detection of Superuser...
With a flavorful of apps that manage Superuser, the detection of Superuser is made by locating the SU Binaries.
The above information is very brief but, pretty much to the point.
Your idea is not incorrect in itself but, you should be looking at this specific scenario in another light (aka the whole picture).
I don't use Magisk myself but, I've seen more successful posts for Magisk XPosed than the other options. I'm not stating that the other options don't work but, Magisk seems (to me) to be more successful.
Good Luck!

With xposed (without the Installer) the app works well, magisk also introduced the function to hide the word magisk from the application name and randomize the app package name
Anyway EdXposed Installer isn't detected, I Will use It when they will patch bootloops (or rovo release the official android 9 xposed)
