Hello, someone on the Cyanogenmod chat channel told me was a bad idea to install Xposed on a CyanogenModded phone. Is this true?
I have CM 13 (Lollipop) on my Samsung Galaxy S3 phone.

I have been running Xposed on my Cyanogen phone for a long time now and nothing bad happens. Cyanogen just doesn't support you if you have Xposed on there so if you have any problems they won't help you.
For you bigger problem is what phone you have, not the system you run
Most of rooted phones who wants to use CM have cm or cm based roms, so if there will be a big problem with xposed you will know that. Only problem is lack of support form ROM developer if you use xposed. OFC some phones/ CM modifications can cause problems with xposed ut there are less .

My phone is a Samsung Galaxy S3. Will this phone be okay with Xposed?
Just to let you all know that Xposed works well in Cyanogenmod as long as you follow the instructions specific to your device when it comes to installing the Framework and installer app. It's not magic nor does all the modules work for all the devices. As for anything you install for the first time as a noob to XPosed... "do your homework" and "understand what it is your installing first". If your tech savvy, try it out and if needed, ask questions. Then you should do just fine.

I'm running the build of CyanogenMod for the 6P from November 6th with Xposed and it's working fine.
I'm holding off upgrading until 7.1.1 gets Xposed writing and the 6P's battery's issue shutdown is figured out.
Running both CM13 and Xposed on my Galaxy Note 10.1, no issues detected.

To be more accurate. The Software (aka Rom) and sometimes Android Version is important to kno when running Xposed. Many custom Roms and Xposed Modules clean clash or not be compatible. Some Modules are generic in design and pretty much work on every Rom across the board like YouTube AdAway because it's App Based. But then their some that are Rom based like xMiui that's specifically for Miui V8 or xTouchWiz for Touchwiz on Marshmallow. Both of which won't work on our do anything on CyanogenMod. Then their are many like GravityBox* that put a disclaimer on using it with Roms outside of AOSP or Google Stock, yet it works fine on CM in my experience.
Just read each module clearly before activation. No need to be discouraged and Xposed have 2 methods of failsafe if something goes wrong. It can be disabled in the recovery by flashing the uninstaller or during the boot screen by pressing the volume buttons 5 times.
Personal favorites nearly all us experienced would use on CM is GravityBox*, YouTube AdAway & Greenify.
*GravityBox is by far the arguable best module. It's a like a swiss army knife but this also means it can clash with none stock (including heavier custom) roms. Simply because these Roms often have the features it adds already baked in.

Since Xposed is only compatible with ARM7 phones on Lollipop I think I will flash the latest stock again which is 4.4.2 for my klte. With Xprivacy there is no problem with security I guess? BubbleUPNP has a module for Xposed that lets me stream audio from phone to Chromecast for apps without Chromecast support.

Real happy for you, but... what's the point of this post. We know that Xposed doesn't work (is in alpha stage) on lollipop and we also know the module's function. I don't get why you've made this thread in the first place
Understand. Got the phone yesterday, and was eager to write something I guess.

Imho 4.4.2 is better than lollipop for now. Most mods here aren't updated for lollipop plus xposed is working there and everything is black instead of the ugly white in 5.0. I got my S5 at the end of January and am real happy with it. Not a single problem so far Check my signature to see which is the latest ROM for the G900F. I also highly recommend you to try the kernel I'm on, it's awesome!

Thank you so much. Will be fun to try it out. Knew Xposed supported Lollipop, but had no idea that it was only for ARM7 devices until yesterday That doesn't matter now that I know how bad it performs in Lollipop. I prefer the GUI in KitKat over Lollipop. It's too polished in Lollipop., and I dislike white too. Great to learn that it's a great phone. So far I love it too.
Spent many hours yesterday to get it working with Windows, figuring out how to root and install rescue and trying out roms. Takes some time to getting into it when getting a new phone, and I don't miss the Sony Xperia Acro S.
If you get stuck in bootloop while reverting back to kitkat, flash kitkat modem and baseband and then try flashing the ROM itself. But i think with Odin you just flash PDA (AP) and that's it. Took me a week until i had my phone completely the way i want it xD

Thank you for the help. I have installed 4.4.2 with Odin already, and it went fine luckily. Got the rom from Sammobiles.
Great toy this with so many options. Not used to that with my former phone. Will be fun.

If you like to control your TV or air-conditioning and stuff with your phone's infrared blaster, then yes it's better. Latest one doesn't have IR blaster working so you can't control anything with Smart Remote. Technically, latest one built on Samsung's official sources is the 21.09.2014 one. Only issue is with the camera. Sometimes when you open it there are some weird colored lines inside and it lags. Toggling HDR on/off fixes it until you start it up again.
Thanks for the info. Running the latest and cannot connect to my WiFi with it. Got a backup of stock luckily.
I had to forsake Xposed to follow the development of CM. 4.4.2 works fine, but following the forefront of the development was hard to resist.

There are many great ROMs on every variant of the HTC One M7 that run well on 5.1.1. My personal favorite is Candy5, which can be found here.
In terms of Xposed itself, as long as you flash the correct framework flashable for the version of Android you're running, (in your case, 5.1.1) then everything will work.
For the correct framework files to flash on top of your 5.1.1 ROM of choice, here they are.
Get the arm version, NOT arm64. Arm is the compatible version for our phone.
On top of this, you need to install the .apk for Xposed as well to utilize the framework modules (this shouldn't be a surprise to you, as you've used Xposed on KitKat)

I use Candy5 as a daily driver and actually, I helped the ROM developer fix the static noise you mentioned. The link for the full ROM with that fix can be found here. It's by far the smoothest (and most stable) stock-like ROM on the m7spr because of the wonderful Candy Kernel baked in.

You're right in that Lollipop ROMs have pretty terrible battery life. This one has much better battery than any other ROM on stock Android. It's not great, but it is rather good once your battery is optimized to it, considering.
For example, I went to a theme park with this ROM and I would check my phone just about every ten minutes. When I got to the park itself, it was only on 10% (reason being because I didn't charge it overnight, haha!). With power saver mode enabled, it lasted over three hours before dying, which is impressive for any ROM, let alone a Lollipop ROM.
It's a fine accomplishment of the CandyROM team for sure.

I have used Xposed on other devices, but never on this one. It will take a bit of searching and reading. I am willing to help with this but I will need more information.
What version of bootloader is installed on your Captivate?
Is your Captivate rooted?
What rom is installed on your Captivate?
If the ROM is not a stock ROM, is it based on Touchwiz, CM, AOSP, or what?

So far I have found that you must be on at least an ICS Rom. You said you were on KitKat, so no worries there. But, the ROM must be Halo enabled. I see that Dirty Unicorns and CM do, I don't know which others do.
Well, when I did superuser on Android 2.3.5, will install the "Corn kernel" and that it will install CM11 The boot loader will not touch anything, I think. The terminal has superuser, I will install Cyanogenmod 11 (Nigthy 13/12/2015) and one that you have installed, nothing more.

I guess you have to wait for a newer version of the Xposed framework.
You can get exposed version already built in. Scroll towards end of first post.

It honestly isnt that great. It certainly works but loses that buttery smooth glide when browsing android store and such. Unfortunately trying to add it to the stock rom caused boot loops for me as well. Guess xposed is out for me.
The only rom I haven't tried is the cynogen mod listed. I still have version 9 on the xoom?. Served me well for root. Even then stock with root was better in my opinion. Honeycomb and ICS. The good old days. Now its this touch whiz crap. ug
I loved swapping roms with my first tablet motorola xoom. A new version to try every week. Not so for this tablet. So I've chosen to live without expose or whatever slight variation of settings is offered from the others. No offnse to the creators. Any option is better then none. The best rom so far is the first one I flashed to get root, t810_cf-autoroot_5.1.1 found below. I'm still using it.

So I just got my O+3T about an hour ago and I love it, fastest phone I've ever owned by a mile.
I sold my brand new S7 Edge to buy this mainly because it was more developer friendly and I really love cm.
I realise there will be no more updates in terms of cm roms but what are the implications of installing cm now? Is it just security updates?
Is anyone else running cm now and keeping it regardless or is it a better idea to stick with/return to stock?

What I have noticed is that many custom roms have poorly configured SELinux, many unfixed CVEs in kernel, disabled forceencrypt (encryption disabled by default, user must go to settings and manually turn it on, what most of the users don't do), distribution through unsecure channels and many more mistakes. Stock roms are mostly fine because google force OEMs to apply certain configurations to their roms. But unofficial developers have free hand, so they do whatever they want and results are sometimes atrocious. Official CM was pretty good, there were certain requirements that ROMs must have met and I really liked the way CM was compiled and distributed. Imho, if you are serious about security, you should wait for the official Lineage OS (if there will ever be the official Lineage OS).

That's a very valid point but security isn't a massive concern for me considering i set selinux to permissive for v4a anyway. I suppose even having root is classed as a security flaw in the first place.

Android pay will work with system less root and magisk
It doesn't work with system less xposed. Just tested it although you can disable xposed and reboot then use Android pay but that's just hassle.
Selinux status I'm not 100% sure but I much prefer having xposed then Android pay. But that's me.
