Is this at all possible? I've looked around for answers, and this thread suggests it's possible. But everywhere else I've looked says you MUST be rooted. Having Xposed would sure make our AT&T non-rooted S5's much more bearable! Any thoughts?
Xposed framework requires root. Plus many of the modules use root as well.

Sucks!!! That's what I figured, I mean I should've known because only ONE article said "Yes" but all of the other TWENTY that I read said "No". Maybe I misunderstood that one article, lol. Thanks for your help!

Some do work without being rooted. Ultimate Dynamic Navbar (udn) and Cool Tool both work and they are on Play. They don't need to have xposed framework installed either. Some people will never know if they don't try and they are not helping you by just making a blanket 'that will never work' statement. Anyway check them out they will keep you busy for a while..they are both good apps..have fun!

Thanks Goose! I know we can root our phones now, and have rooted all of my previous phones, but I'm not quite ready to take the plunge with this phone just yet. I will definitely try these apps. Much appreciated!!

exactly! i read that after i posted on here lol. but since i havent tried the "fix" myself, i figured i wouldnt edit anything i said till then thanks though!
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.

Didn't work for me. It even says on the project description that the latest Optimum app doesn't work with it.

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.

I have read that thread
But i have been using xposed for too long that incant now do anything without it
I recently upgraded to official lolipop in my GT-I9500
Now cannot install xposed
I guess i have to wait for it intill it becomes compatible with lolipop
I'm also very much used to xPosed that i cant go on without it.
and xPosed the the only reason I'm not upgrading to Lollipop
and the wait is going longer n longer

You should upgrade to Lollipop. Rovo89 said that he is working on it only for some hours per month, and for me this does not sound like actively developed project.

Just upgraded my phone to Android 5.0.2 myself, and it really feels like my phone is missing something. Android 5 already looks nice, but there's these small tweaks Xposed makes possible, that would make it perfect.
Crossing my fingers for future updates
Downgrade to 4.4 and stay on it forever. Xposed is most probably dead since August or September 2014.

It isn't dead. Just because rovo isn't here giving progress reports, doesn't mean he isn't working on it. He's specifically said he won't give progress reports or publish any work in progress code until he's ready, so lack of new information means nothing really, apart from he's doing what he said he would.
There are comments here that indicate he hasn't given up, just for example - https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/18

Thanks for that link. I'm glad that one day I'll have a reason to upgrade to Lollipop.
android without xposed is...
without xPosed,
no xPrivacy, without xPrivacy, apps go f**kin around and collecting every bit of my data,
no Amplify to control wakelocks, alarms and services
no advanced greenify
no Wanam Xposed for samsung tweaks
no XHaloFloatingWindow
no Network Speed Indicator
no Native Clip Board
and lots of other important tweaks that i always use on every rom and device like wifikeyview, vpndialog xposed, screen filter, ds battery saver, disable service, gravity box, fake wifi etc etc

Stop and read the threads before you post this. There is progress, he's not updating
No new code does not mean he's not working on it.
If that would be the case we won't see a newer Android Version that Lollipop because there is no newer source code...
I read from Rovos posts, that he is working on ART-compatibility and understanding how the new runtime works. In my understanding that means, he won't release a new BETA or a new source until he had success with making it work basically. Possibly then we have a source-code and he'll do refinements.

I did tell you this before, but perhaps you missed it. To that end, I'll repeat it.
rovo specifically said he would not be publishing any work in progress code on his GitHub or anywhere else until it was at a state where he was confident that other contributors could effectively assist.
In the absence of any statement changing that stance, then everyone can assume that's the reason that there's no activity on his GitHub.
Until stated otherwise, there's zero reason to assume that he's abandoned work on Xposed as the lack of visible activity is entirely intended, especially since comments on issues on GitHub point to the fact that he's still working on it.

As far as I'm concerned, Xposed is the only reason not to upgrade to L. If you can do without it, then it's absolutely worth the upgrade!
All,
Please... No arguing in here. Either make constructive posts that hold value or don't post at all. If this continues then the thread goes bye-bye.
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.

He was reminiscing about Cydia which has been out A LOT longer than two years.
I bought the T713 a month or so ago, installed Ashyx TWRP 3.0.2-1 and rooted. All is well. The last device I rooted was a Note 3 from almost 3 years ago (still have it...going strong). Back then, there was LBE Privacy Guard and Xprivacy. Development for both of these seems to have stopped a few years back.
So are these still viable for my SM-T713 or is there another program out there that works as well?
Thanks,
Sam
Have you installed the Xposed framework? I see Xpivacy in the download section, last updated 7/1/15. Not sure if that helps you tho
Edit: there is an alternative that is being currently developed and updated.
The one on top...
Thanks. Seems like development has dropped off. Is it just that self sustaining, or are people just not that concerned about privacy these days?
I haven't installed xposed. I see there's a FAQ and instructions in the OP of the xprivacy thread.
Unless the alternative you mention is more viable?
Thanks again. Any info appreciated.

No, I haven't tried Xposed for anything, but I know it needs to be installed prior to using xPrivacy, so I guess I'll become familiar with it.
