There's so many different xposed versions to choose but unsure which one. Help me?
> Not sure if I'm lolipop or kitkat, but in "about me", it shows version "5.0".
> I'm rooted with the stock rom. Using a custom launcher (nova), not touch wiz.
Thanks
Reason I want to use xposed is because I want to use xPrivacy.
Theres no official support from Xposed for Samsung 5.x ROMs so you cant use the official Xposed releases by rovo89. Your only hope is check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3113463 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960 depending if you are in 5.0 or 5.1.1 - Make a full backup of your rom + apps, in case things go south yu will be able to fix things with that backup, im guessing you have a custom recovery installed wich will help you making/restoring the backup and flashing the xposed zip. Good Luck, youre gonna need it.

Thanks, I'm on 5.0 (Don't know if that's truly 5.0 or 5.01) cuz it shows exactly 5.0 in my "About" setting on S5.
So, it seems that I have to go with arter97's xposed version. Now I'm stuck with something: deodexing...
Does deodexing work when you put a ROM on PC and use a certain tool to "deodex" that ROM? Then re-flash it to phone? Problem is, I cannot find the ROM (the one that I used to flash for rooting) on my PC...

I dont have a s5 nor am i familiarized with the root process on that device, anyway is a samsung device so you flash things with odin on it, thats what i do know. Here are my thoughts:
1-. Honestly i think you should update your S5 to 5.1.1 first, if possible, if you have the international version for example. Chek this from android police https://www.androidpit.com/galaxy-s5-android-update
2-. Also here is some info about the S5, his variants and firmwares, worth reading: http://androidforums.com/threads/41-galaxy-s5-models-dummies-guide.892162/
3-. Anyway about the deodexing, if you dont find the file in your PC go to samfirware they have pretty much all the samsung firmwares there. This is only if youre staying in 5.0 of course, and yes you could use samfirmware to find the 5.1.1 rom file for your S5 if there is any available and flash it via Odin, then youll have to install a custom recovery and root your phone using whatever method is right for the S5, again you have to check your variant support, use google youll probablly end up here in XDA again.

Thanks, I think I'll wipe everything & install a custom ROM (deodex'd). Should save some time. Again thanks for your help
Has anyone managed to get it working? I just tried to install via FlashFire and wound up getting an animation loop on the SlimLP boot logo. I applied the 5.1.1 firmware through the "apply update through adb" option in the recovery, can anyone confirm Xposed even working on SlimLP?
I'd like to know this also. Have not tried it yet.
I think you have to use the slim-rom version from the 4th post. The original slim rom is not running with xposed beacause of some ART optimizations... Read the slim rom thread. There you can find something about it.
Thanks! Think I found an easier solution than installing Xposed for what zip needed though (just needed YouTube to play in the background). That will come in handy if I want it later for any reason though.
Yes, xposed works fine. Big thanks to csolanol!
You must use the xposed compatible SlimLP 0.13 build + the correct xposed version (see the howto xposed thread in Fire General forum).
Anybody had success with getting .013 build running successfully with eXposed.. I've tried the ' Slim-ford-5.1.1.beta.0.13-UNOFFICIAL-20151221-0949.zip ' build from root junkies tutorial i think in section 4 or something if i remember vaguely, but with no luck... The Flash just proceeds as expected then reboots while opening/loading .zip.. But the standard release 'non-eXposed' runs without any problems.
Need to include more information. You're flashing with twrp or flashfire? If you used flashfire, what are you coming from? Stock 5.1.1 or another rom.
Do you mean after flashing the rom your Fire will not boot / start up?
I flashed SlimLP 0.13 via twrp without a problem on two different Fires. Xposed runs fine.
thanks for your reply, I'm flashing with flashFire from a r00ted fresh clean stock fire-os 5.1.1 on Amazon Fire 7" 5th Gen. i execute flash after selecting wipe all partitions except sd and then load .zip via ota then push button to commence flash, it proceeds to blank screen and then flashing screen and begins to attempt rom install i see rom info and 'char pic' of rom then it self terminates and reboots to existing r00ted fire-os, i do this exact same process with the rom not currently supporting Xposed from rootjunkie download site, and everything completes successfully spending a slightly longer period at the rom install/upload stage completing successfully with slimlp running nice... minus a few almost irrelevant bugs i noticed...
Twrp via adb doesn't work with 5.1.1 right? only works on 5.0.1&2? .. unless im mistaken.. any ideas?
Yep, we can't use twrp on 5.1.1.
So you select to wipe, system data, 3rd party apps, dalvik cache, cache partition, correct? I'm afraid I have no suggestions.
exactly that's correct , then i select rom, then i select gapps. then press flash button and it halts on the next screen as it begins to flash rom and quits to a reboot .. everything still unchanged as it was.. i have tried this process installing from stock os fire 5.1.1 & slimlp 5.1.1 with unsuccessful results.. but hey at least i have a SlimLp non-Xposed edition installed that beats Fire-BS#"*t any day. guess I'll have to wait for a new build to be released. bummer.
---------- Post added at 12:32 ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 ----------
in the future i guess more concentration is needed on the 5.1.1 Xposed edition skimlp rom to be flashed from 5.1.1 stock, for the true android custom eXperience .. i have also seen a fw roll back to 5.0.1or5.0.2 is not possible from any 5.1.1 os. never mind.
What I find is odd is that you've selected to wipe first. Flashfire should be wiping before trying & failing to flash SlimLP 0.13, leaving your Fire wiped & unable to boot back into the stock FireOS (you would then need to restore FireOS 5.1.1 via adb sideload in the amazon recovery). FlashFire is in beta & I think it's currently a bit buggy.

Sorry, I feel I joined the conversation mid-way but, which SlimROM thread are you talking about?
There is only one SlimLP-Thread in android development section.
Newest SLim-Version for Fire is without Art-Optimizations, so you can use xposed now with the latest slimlp 0.14.
With the older SlimLP 2.3 there was Art-Optimization inside - so there no xposed was working.

Thanks for the reply. I actually don't have a Fire and came across this thread after a lot of googling. I'm running SlimLP 0.12 I think on a Note Edge. I absolutely love this ROM. Seriously, I was close to selling the phone for scraps until I flashed this ROM. Now I think I will never buy another phone unless there is SlimROM support already
Anyway, I've been looking everywhere for a solution to get Xposed running. I found people saying that SELinux needs to be set to Permissive which I have done but still no luck. Are you saying that it's impossible with SlimLP versions before 0.14? Somehow, I doubt that would come to the Note Edge

Maybe you shouldn't presume, with no information, that people are imbeciles? Don't you think I would've have done that at the beginning? Anyway, I may be wrong but I presumed that whether or not Xposed worked was more dependent on the ROM and not the phone? So if people here, who are discussing Xposed on SlimROM can help me, why not ask?
Bib_x is correct, i confirm Xposed working on slimlp build 0.14 beautifully for Fire 7 5th Gen.. be wary of modules you install other wise you'll have to start everything from scratch when you reach a boot hang because of a not yet compatible module.. you have no custom recovery remember so no quick fix, can always fresh install everything lol., which is good training lol.
so i have confirmed my s5 is rooted, i downloaded the XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha4.apk and i get the message (The Xposed framework is not installed. please download the latest ZIP file from XDA and flash it manually via recovery..... ( now i tried a few files from the index due to confusion, im still confused so hopefully someone can clear it up for me but i chose sdk23 due to the fact its 6.0.1 marshmallow , then i chose arma since i figured the phone is 32 bit, but i dont know which version to choose???? also i dont have an sd card, can this be completed with adb sideload, or perhaps flashfire ? please help im racking my brain over this lol.

Since you are using stock Samsung ROM. Official xposed doesn't work properly with stock Samsung.
You don't need an external SD card to flash, just custom recovery, though something like flashfire might work. It worked to flash xposed on my LG tablet

i have a custom recovery and its working good, i just need to go buy an sd card which im about to go do, and im also confused on what you mean by samsung ROM, you mean i have a jailbroken phone but i need to actually download a custom rom like ( CyanogenMod 13.0 ) to alow the xposed firmware to run properly ? and also confused because what you linked me to is for lollipop i thought my phone was running off marshmellow hence (6.0.1), perhaps you could clarify im very new to this, thanks for the response though!
(ALSO FORGOT TO ASK) will downloading cyanogenmod 13.0 on a phone that is already rooted ruin the phone? or is it not a jailbreak its just modifications, etc?

Modifying phones like putting custom ROMs and recoveries will void your warranty, but usually won't ruin them in most cases, but there is always the potential.
I'm going to put this out there, and please don't get offended. I would advise you not pursue this further until you do some more reading and learning, as you yet have grasped fully what you are doing. Since you don't have someone who knows what they are doing right there with you. And troubleshooting via a forum can be difficult to do since it isn't real time.
1. Android phones are not jailbroken, they are rooted.
2. ROM refers to the version/setup of Android for a device.
3. I said you didn't need an external SD card. Though, it does make it easier if you have one to do things like backup your ROM before you do any modifications like this, so if it goes south you can restore it to it's current state.
You can PM me more about this if you like instead of cluttering the thread.
I had to manually go to my applications and check storage permissions for xposed installer, although i deleted smart manager with titanium backup so could be why it wasnf automatically asked at installation.

I just installed xposed and got into a bootloop too. Stock ROM rooted.
Realy no one that can awnser my question?
Try this version of Xposed
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
It works with stock roms. You must flash it using TWRP 2.8, becasue TWRP3.0 has the bootloop issue, dont know why.
Hey @Vaako,
I'm not sure if this is still urgent for you, but here's the procedure I followed to get what you want:
- Grab a recent stock ROM that fits your country from updato.com
- Flash the stock ROM to the device using ODIN
- Root the device by flashing CF-AutoRoot using ODIN.
- Flash TWRP 3.0 to the device using ODIN
- Use Barebone Cleaner (by installing it through TWRP 3.0) to remove unneeded Samsung bloatware
- Install wanam's Xposed mod for Samsung using TWRP 3.0.
Note that this works for me with TWRP 3.0 without any bootloop issues.
Result: a cleaned-up, rooted recent stock ROM with XPosed installed.
No custom kernels or anything, because on my G800H custom kernels make me lose GPS. Your mileage may vary, though.
I am not sure of which xposed framework to install on my Galaxy S5 ( Android 5.0,ArmV7 processor, VFPV4 Neon), I would really appreciate if someone could help out here. Thanks

Yes on first installation and boot.
once installed and working your phone should boot normally afterwards.
Each device may vary in time to start after first install.

I installed Xposed framework [UNITY] again today and I followed your instructions, I waited for about 45 minutes while my phone was stuck on the start screen but still the phone refused to start up, had to restore my back up ROM again, I think its safe to say Xposed UNITY doesn't work with Galaxy S5, at least that's based on my experience.

Try this one it is the official rovo89 version of exposed.
I believe for your phone you will need
Framework zip ( start with latest version)
Sdk 21 ( 5.0 lollipop )
Arm ( not x86 or arm64)
Exposed installer apk
And I would also get the uninstaller as well just in case

@app'd are you using stock/a TouchWiz based ROM or an AOSP based ROM? If you are using stock or a TouchWiz based ROM you need Xposed that is specifically for Samsung devices, which can be found here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960/page1
Samsung makes a LOT of changes to Android and many modifications for AOSP/stock Android will not work on TouchWiz, which is why the Xposed versions posted by @spawnlives is causing your device to boot loop.

Depends on his rom. From what I understand you need a deodex'ed rom for it to work. There are links in post no. 2 for this though.
