Android Pie UI - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

Hi guys
Is any way to change green color in android pie to blue and add round corners like in Pixel without root?

No, Substratum doesnt work without root after Pie. If you are willing to root there is a magisk module called Pix3lify. It does all the things you want

Anyone regret updating to the newest OOS version and losing xposed?

Just got the device and contemplating updating. Is the update worth it?

It depends on how much you like xposed and its modules? in my opinion I prefer xposed over any supposed performance or battery upgrades nougat has.
Depends on what you use Xposed for. If enjoy heavily modifying your ROM, you should probably just stick to Marshmallow.
If you only use Xposed for basic mods like the YouTube ones, there's workarounds available now that work on Nougat.
Or you could use rr nougat and still pretty much have a great level of customization while still having the latest android. This is the ROM I use and I have no complaints get updated frequently as well. I don't really care for xposed or oos that's not why I got the phone. I got it because it has great development support here at xda and cause it's awesome of course.

Yes I'm kind of leaning this way.
On OP3T, would you recall steps to install xposed? And which root method you used?

Modified YouTube APK.

I've stuck with Nougat since getting mine. Hopefully, rovo89 updates Xposed for Nougat in the near future. I love the deep layer of customization that comes with Xposed, but OOS with Magisk is pretty damn awesome.
Xposed is nice, but OOS has great functionality and what I am missing, can be added with Magisk. So no, no miss. Also, Safety Net works which is nice.

Like can you use something like snapreffs or xinsta with magisk?
Magisk doesn't really have much in common with Xposed, they do completely different things. Xposed modifies how an app runs while the app is running by interrupting commands, while Magisk simply replaces or inserts files in /system at boot. The level of customization that Xposed offers simply cannot be achieved directly with Magisk. It might be possible to modify the original Instagram app to include features from snapress or xinsta and then install the modified app.

SuperSU and MagiskSU both work perfectly on every version of OOS 4.x I have used so far... There's half a dozen guides on XDA alone that shows you how to root...
Sorry for the rant i apologize

Pretty sure every OnePlus phone has been rootable. I mean, I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt it. OnePlus has always been very friendly to the root community, and IMO it's paid off well for them.

Which Xposed modules can't you live without?

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.

Anybody have a suggestion - I'm looking to change the dpi of chrome app (8.1) without Xposed

Idk if any module.of such kind exists.
But i seriously need a module for this. It will.be great if someone can develop.

is it a shame that there is no such thing, is it so long and difficult to develop it? unfortunately I'm not a programmer
To spoof dpi you have to change build prop but then it changes for the whole device and all apps. Spoofing individually is not possible without Xposed I think.
Not a developer myself, so I might be wrong.

Hi did anyone figure out a solution?
Chrome in Tablet mode is the best
the vitual xposed is a good solution without messing up your system
Hi vitual?
If you up to Android Oreo you can install Xposed as a Magisk module.. But there's no Xposed for Android Pie yet :'(
Yes
Guys, install magisk, enable zygisk, enable denylist, configure denylist to block all Google services and play store, reboot , and safetynet will pass
Install lsposed (replaces xposed), install app settongs reborn, enable module , and reboot.
Use app settings reborn to customize dpi per app
All of this,should be on YouTube
Don't dm me please

What are you using root for?

Now that root on X4 is pretty solid it would be nice to see what different people use it for.
Themes? Apps that need root? Magisk modules?
Let's share some tips and tricks!
I have not rooted yet but want to know if there is some interesting customised tips for motox4
For me it was actually needed to remove operator bloatware.
But I found here the (almost) clean EU retail ROM where only Linked-in and Outlook apps are added, so it's perfectly OK for me.
So... no need for root
I reverted back to fully stock but I mainly used it for AdBlock.
i use root for adblock. if i could find a way to write a hosts without rooting id be happy
You guys using ADblock, wouldn't it be the same to use a browser with this feature built-in?
Well, that works if you don't want to block ad banners inside apps.

It's not the same as editing the host file. Many ads still get through.
Another important reason why I need root. Titanium backup.

2nd This!
Rooted for.
* No wireless display support (edit built.prop)
* Adblocking( Edit host)
* Audiomods(Viper)
* Xposed modules.
@anas214812, now that's interesting stuff! A couple of questions:
1) is that wireless display mod you refer to able to show the phone content on the TV?
2) about Xposed, do you know if GravityBox works? I'd be interested in a way to set the statusbar clock centrally aligned.
Thanks!

Bro...warranty will be voided permanently...right now there is no way relock the bootloader and most of the banking apps not working for me ?
Ah! Thanks again for the heads-up!
Now I'll think twice before rooting X4, because I use a banking app and actually care about product warranty.

On my old Moto PE, I had no issues with unlocked bootloader and Magisk for Adroid Pay or any banking apps. Are you finding differently with Moto X4 or are you not hiding root with Magisk? Does safetynet checks pass in Magisk?

When I install magisk safety net was pass and after installing xposed and its framework.zip file from magisk then safetynet failed.
But even without installing magisk just because of bootloader unlocking my banking apps won't work. Even with safetynet pass(but Google pay worked).

Does Xposed work with Pokemon GO?

I know a while back Xposed tripped Pokemon GO even with Magisk. Is this still the case with the most up to date version of Xposed and Magisk? I only want Xposed for privacy tools like XPrivacyLua
