Hi, im new here and this is my first post, so i appreciate all the help and feedback you can give me.
im interested in using xposed in android TV Box's and Dongles, i've been reading and learning all about it for more than a month now. i've got it to work on most TV Box's and dongles that i have "RK based devices with android V 4.4 or less",but i still have a problem with one device which is an RK3288 based with android 5.1 that is already rooted.
i used twrp to flash xposed-v86-sdk22-arm.zip which was successful, than i wiped Dalvik/cache and rebooted, but the boot stuck on bootanimation, i disabled xposed by installing the uninstaller.zip and everything went back to normal. i tried it many times but with no use. i noticed that twrp doesnt mount internal SD, i installed an older version of bootloader which gave me the ability to mount the internal Sdcard, and i tried to install xposed again and this time it pass the animation and goes to a black screen where i can use the mouse but nothing else. with some research i found that UT3+ is based on firefly board and their original ROM is available for download and it has the same bootloader version that came installed with the device, after flashing the new ROM i was able to mount the internal Sdcard and i tried to install xposed again, and this time it gives me optimizing apps but after it finish the device reboot and get stuck again on bootanimation.
my question is, if there is a log for errors to know why the system/boot get stuck , where can i find them??
and if there is no logs how can i monitor the booting process to find the info i need??
also i know or read what bootloader is but i dont understand how it is effecting xposed installation.
Sorry for the long post, and thank you for your help in advanced
EDIT: i finally got adb connection with the device and used logcat to get the logs, but im not sure how to attach the files. if anyone can help i will gladly send the logs. thanks
Update 1
i was looking at the logs "didnt know what to search for im not a developer" and i noticed that everything is crashing and "Not granting permission" ,"Unknown permission " are everywhere .
sample of logs:
Code:
"com.google.android.partnersetup.permission.WRITE_APP_PROVIDER in
package com.android.vendingW/PackageManager( 4712): Not granting
permission android.permission.BIND_WALLPAPER to package
com.android.camera2 (protectionLevel=18
flags=0x58bc45)W/PackageManager( 4712): Not granting permission
android.permission.BIND_APPWIDGET to package com.android.launcher3
(protectionLevel=18 flags=0x583e45)W/PackageManager( 4712): Unknown
permission android.permission.READ_SETTINGS in package
com.android.launcher3W/PackageManager( 4712): Unknown permission
com.android.launcher.permission.READ_SETTINGS in package
com.android.launcher3W/PackageManager( 4712): Unknown permission "
so i decided to root again with KingRoot, and i tried installing xposed again, and it kinda worked. the system boot and the launcher opens but crashing messages keeps showing "Stresstest for 5.0 has stopped running" , "The process com.android.phone has stopped running", and others.
now im not sure about what im doing but i'll test two methods:
1- i will unpake ROM.img put xposed in the root and update the updater script to install xposed when i flash the ROM.
2- the device can run Linux version from SD card so i might run it and manually install xposed files.
if anyone have any tips or info please let me know. thanks
SOLUTION
For those who are having problems with their RK based android TV Box with android 5.1, if you get stuck on Boot animation or the system boots with black screen and you can use your mouse only, or if you getting errors when you boot the main problem would be your firmware is modified and up to Xposed V.86 is not supported because of the error "No implementation found for void dalvik.system.VMRuntime.clam" you can read more about it in this post https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/167.
and luckily dsa8310 made a modefied version of xposed, i tested it and it works you can find the download link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=67787484&postcount=325

I can't get to the page with the link. (I get a noob alert) We want to try this xposed on a ugoos ut3s (android 5.1 with a rk3288)
Would someone please be so kind to post it here or tell me where I can download it.
Anyone that can compile Xposed v87 to fix this problem for RK3288 Lollipop devices?

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/art/+/379d09fe3c3feb7c2a2fb5a3623689b5ace7e79b
Are there instructions somewhere so we can compile it ourselves?
The code above looks like it needs to be applied to Android source code, what must be changed in Xposed Github code to fix it and compile our own new Xposed only for our devices?
Thanks

Wow ! Work nice on my haier pad971 (ifive air clone) rk3288 5.1.1 !!
Thanks so much
does anyone know if there's an RK3288 enabled xposed v89 built to avoid the issues described by viVaPale? Tried the one from 3.1.5 installer, but after boot it doesn't load the launcher, only mouse can be moved around like viVaPale describes.

I just installed Alliance rom on my att gs5. For some reason it won't let me install xposed framework. Help?
I have the same problem with gt-n8013 cyanogenmod rom
"It won't let me install Xposed framework" – how so? Any errors?
I can't submit a screenshot of the error because I don't have many posts. But it says "Failed to create a backup of /system/bin/app_process
There should be an error above/below that line as well? Have you tried installing Xposed via the recovery?
It's a big error. Its a lot to type but tldr it says permission denied. No, how do I do that?

Permission denied? Are you sure you're rooted (if you are, double check that the Xposed Installer is granted root permissions)?
You can install it via the recovery by changing the installation method (press the button).
I have no idea what I did but I tried to install it again and it worked so. Thanks for trying to help but its fixed now haha.

Having trouble with loading Netflix so discovered about the xposed fix for this problem. I tried to install xposed but got the "signature" error message which I believe tells me xposed is already installed. In my "apps", I do not have xposed listed as an installed app. Doing a file search, there are no hits on "xposed". I recently upgraded to latest Beanstalk 4.4.4. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
So yesterday I installed xposed framework on my Moto G XT1033 5.0.2, after the process i tried installing some modules with no success, "App not Installed". I rebooted my phone and tried installing again, this time it got stuck on " installing...". I have tried to install using lucky patcher and it gave an error saying that some directory didn't exist.
Please help
Similar problem on my LG L90. I installed version 86 and it's active. I'm able to download modules, but unable to install them.
It says, "Application not installed." I've tried this for several modules and received the same results.
In the installer logs section I have an error:
"E/Xposed ( 298): Cannot load any modules because /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/modules.list was not found"
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Hello, I also have the same problem with my Alcatel One Touch Fierce 2 running Android 4.4.2. I try to install the Xposed apk and its says "App not installed". Someone please help.

Hey there, did you find a solution for this problem since you posted this? I am experiencing this exact problem right now, it says that modules.list was not found in that directory. Framework is working, modules can be downloaded but not installed.
Thanks
reserve...
For an unknown reason I had the same issue. I was able to download and install from Xposed, and than one day it wouldn't allow me to press the "install button". Long story made short I was able to get it working by installing this app:
[XPOSED] [KK] [FIX] KitKat BUGS fixer
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-service-bug-63793-fix-t2830732
Hope that helps someone and saves them time trying to figure out what happened.
I've had this problem and the way that I do it is by disabling the exposed framework then rebooting, then it will allow you to install apps. After, activate the module, that re eneble xposed, and reboot!
Hey
I was having the same issue but i fixed it.
This might be because google get to know that the phone is modified thats why no apps get installed so the fix it that download GMS PROTECTED app from xposed download and inatall it. Activate it and reboot. And if you're unable to install then simply turn the framework off and install the module that I've mentioned above.after installing the module activate it,turn on the framework and reboot the fone. Bang.... You're good to go
Hi,
My goal is to successfully install the Xposed framework on the HTC10. I have a stock RUU ROM, unlocked the bootloader, installed TWRP recovery, and rooted it with Supersu with force encryption per Rootjunky.com videos on YouTube. Specifically, I'm using the xposed-v86-sdk23-arm64.zip, SuperSU-v2.71-forceencrypt_v2, TWRP-3.0.2-6-pme. Then I proceeded to install the Xposed framework and APK. It flat out dosesn't work. the Bin folder and log folders are empty and I receive "The latest version of Xposed is currently not active. Did you install the framework and reboot?" I have verified my root is working with a number of other apps. I have tried resolved the issue by executing the methods listed in this article: Can't post links yet cause I'm a noob. And they didn't work. I have completely wiped my device internal and external and tried rerooting and reinstalling and I still get the same result. I also have tried installing older version of the Xposed framwork. I have spend days troubleshooting it and I can't figure it out. No matter what I get the Currently not active.
Some of my reading points to the SE Linux Mode being set to "Enforcing" being the culprit as to why it is not working. I have no idea what this is. However, I can confirm that mine is set to Enforcing despite me executing all three steps in the aforementioned article. I installed that lean kernel so it should be set to permissive I would think but Device Control app shows otherwise.
When I click on Logs in the the Xposed Installer, it says Could not read log /data/data/de.robv/android/xposed.installer/log/error.log. I can confirm that it is installing something because the DE.ROBV.ANDROID.XPOSED.INSTALLER directory is there. And all of the sub directories are present. But bin and log directories are empty which I find odd. I would expect to see many files in there especially the Bin folder.
Any ideas how to resolve this without a log file? I'm sure the HTC10 is arm64 so that shoudn't be the issue. any ideas why this isn't installing correctly? Is it the SE Linux Mode? Do I need to S-Off of something? Any help appreciated!
Regards, Matt.:good:
I highly recommend @JamFlux's work instead. Currently, this has got way more complicated than it should be (in the past 24 hours, only 40% users have managed to accurately follow the procedure, and even less for the latest beta). However, I will continue working on this project in order to make it compatible across more devices. The app is now open-source and you can visit the GitHub repo here. Thanks for using UpdateEngine Interface and I hope to see you folks again soon.
I've created the UpdateEngine Interface, a tool to install OTAs that haven't been assigned to your device. It talks to Android's update_engine binary to flash the block-based updates just the way the original updater does, ensuring that your data is preserved and your system partition's signature doesn't change.
TLDR: It allows you to install Oreo without using someone else's TWRP backup or losing data.
Now has the latest build (20th December)
Installation:
Install Magisk
Install the attached Magisk module (named UpdateEngine_1.2.zip) and reboot
Open the newly installed UpdateEngine app and press start
Wait for the installation to complete and restart your device to boot into Android O
If you wish to update to the latest beta, use Magisk to install UpdateEngine_1.3.zip afterwards
Note: If you're a FlashFire user, please uninstall it and reboot before continuing.
Note #2: You must install Oreo via v1.2 before installing the latest beta (via v1.3).

Yeah. It requires that the system hasn't been modified since the December OTA (just like the original updater) since the updates are applied block-by-block.
Which beta does it have currently? THE first one or newer?

I only have the first build, since that's the only one that people captured (I'm not in the beta, so I can't get the newer ones myself).
Okay
@ur0 wow, thats awesome, thank you bro)
This looks interesting, although I'm waiting for Xposed Oreo. A question though, I've heard the leaked Oreo build is rooted, does this method install untouched boot.img?
@Filip013 yes, this installs the untouched boot.img.
@rostifaner and @TerQQ, You're welcome!
so this tool can install android O ota beta without twrp ? and without losing data ? and how to install this tool ? sorry for many question .
is possible to add feature "choose ota file from device" or something similar ?

I'm looking into adding this -- the only problem is that it also requires a bit of metadata (which is inconvenient to type manually). I'll look into defining a format which the app can read directly.
It doesn't seem to be working for me. When I press Start, it opens FlashFire app & nothing happens. Even if I come back to this app, there will two buttons Pause & Stop, but nothing will be happening. Also can you please make it open source?

That's weird -- can you please post the logcat outputs after this happens (maybe after restarting and trying again)?
I'm sure that it's something with flashfire since the app doesn't use it or depend on it.
I'm definitely going to open-source this after I fix a few hacks I made to get the initial version working.
Any chance of posting your work to github? would be interesting to see the source if possible
How to install?
How to install magisk and update engine. Will we have to root and flash these file from TWRP? Please give the tutorial in detail.
for me its working great.
I don't understand what purpose this tool serves. You're saying that using this we can install the oreo update without someone's twrp bakup?
I keep getting a crash when i press start, then the app won't open again until I reboot and even then no download... am i missing something?
I have magisk 15.6 and i disabled all my other modules just in case...

Hello.
Unable to flash magisk modules.
! /data/adb/magisk_merge.img mount failed.
Even via twrp recovery is no possible to flash magisk modules, says something like error 1.
The device is a doogee mix 2.
I was forced to install the normal xposed framework just to use it.
Root works; only modules have problems.
Can some expert find a solution, please?
Thank you in advance to everyone gives good news!

Known issue on some MTK devices. Loop mounting doesn't work.
There are lots of reports like this for Doogee... There's been some investigating into it in the beta thread, but as of yet there's no solution, I believe.

Tried to re-install magisk: nothing happens.
I have re-flashed the ROM and re- installed magisk: at moment is working.

Looks like recovery can't decrypt /data, so that's likely an issue there. But it'd be easier to tell if you had provided the recovery log rather than a screenshot (Advanced - Copy log after trying to flash).
And, it would also be very useful if you had provided a Magisk log rather than only installation logs.
But, it's probably a moot point anyway. Like I said earlier, this is a known issue with loop mounting on Doogee devices (and other devices using Mediatek). No solution as of yet...

Ok, thanks.
I will try to send you good logs.
About encryption, I have tried to disable encryption and to install all without encryption: nothing changes.
Before I must understand why magisk disappears from system, then I will collect logs about modules installation. Magisk is the only way to root this damned phone, SuperSU does not works.

There was no need to start a new thread about that... You've already got this one going.
The screenshot of the Manager you provided simply showed a Manager without internet access. Completely normal.
About losing root completely, make sure you don't have any aggressive battery optimisation on the Manager. More here:
https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/Magisk#hn_Randomly_losing_root
Ok, good, I close the other thread
Yes true, that is a normal screenshot of magisk offline. Yesterday I did formatted data to disable encryption and I lost all the other screenshots, but was like this: before all options disappeared, then magisk disappeared.
No, no aggressive battery optimization running, but I have installed greenify and amplify... Perhaps one of this app makes problem?
I wish to close the other thread, but I do not know how to do it.
How to do it, please?

Make sure the Manager is removed from Battery optimisation and that it isn't selected I'm Greenify. It's not certain that this is the issue, but it's worth ruling out.
Other than that, a logcat of it happening, or even just a screenshot of the Manager when things aren't working. A Magisk log is also useful, of course.

Anyhow, thank you for all
Move to thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/guide-magisk-official-version-including-t3577875. Flash last zip. Move to magisk manager, install updated (2018.3.6) version. All modules should now install fine.
Hello.
Thank you for the answer.
I have tried to flash the zip without success.
No magisk installation found or installed version is not supported.
Error process 1.
The magisk version I have installed is v16. - 5.6.4(112).
The last one, suppose.
Any suggestions, please?
Thank you in advance ?
I made also the this attempt: I have flashed a magisk module using flashify.
The flashing was successful, but the module is not in the magisk list.
Can be a permission problem? Someone knows where is the folder of installed magisk modules, please? Perhaps is a permission problem and changing permissions will work...
Download f2fs-loopback-bug-workaround-2018.1.31.zip from the thread. Place it in Download folder of internal storage. Reboot to recovery. Flash zip in twrp. Reboot. Open magisk manager. F2FS Loopback Bug Workaround should be installed in modules. I hope any module can be installed from now on.
Dear Pragnan Saha,
Thank you for your answer.
I have tried to flash f2fs-loopback-bug-workaround-2018.1.31.zip, but without success.

What thread? And is it about exact the same error ! /data/adb/magisk_merge.img ... What this thread is about?
Do you know if there's a fix already? I'm on ext4 so f2fs loopback makes no sense for me
And @MasterSheea do you have a fix?
I've got exactly the same error with flashing modules, after clean flask is possible to install modules but after 1 reboot it fails
