Just as the title says I'm just asking those of you who are rooted and a quick brief explanation of why? Even those not rooted I would also encourage to Express your reasonings.
Personally I'm not rooted right now because I don't have TWRP and Google pay is iffy at the moment but I would love to root for substratum, adaway, and Viper sound mods.
Thanks guys.
Google Pay works with a simple fix in Termux app - no issues with it unless you use EdXposed.
I'm rooted for modding, theming, ability to install custom kernel, Button Mapper capabilities, Swift Backup, ability to fix device ambient EQ, ability to mod Active Edge, ability to use Lawnchair with QuickStep recents. mod accent colors to cool neon colors, iYTPB YouTube mod.. Substratum (not using currently but will be soon), ability to hide navbar.. the list goes on.
I'm rooted because this is a Google device with open source code and active development so modding and customizing my device is easy, fun, and I am able to see the changes being made without the blind guesswork and hackery involved in trying to develop for so many half-baked source release devices.
rooted so I can use;
- AdAway
- ViPER4Android
- EdXposed
As previously mentioned, Gpay is working fine.
And you don't "need" TWRP to root the P4XL.

Thanks for your input guys but I'm a little confused through googling I see a magisk module that supposedly does all the necessary scripting in the background and then like mentioned here I see manually editing via termux. So I'm just wondering what is the exact procedure or is there a thread I can't seem to find with the exact instructions?

I recommend this Termux fix, believe spaceman860 from DU is the first I saw using this but could be wrong, copying this from Telegram
Gpay fix v2
1. Install Termux app and open the app
2. Type pkg install sqlite hit enter and let it install.
3. Type su hit enter
4. Copy and paste this then hit enter
am force-stop /data/data/com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel && chmod 777 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db && /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db "update main set c='0' where a like '%attest%';" && chmod 444 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db
5. Reboot
I'm rooted mainly so I can install a custom kernel. I always end up rooting for one small reason or another.
Because i can
Adaway for now.
I root for,
AdAway
YouTube Vanced
Active Edge Mod
Custom Fonts
Themes (Swift Installer and Substratum)
Viper4Android
Centre Clock Mod
Build prop edits (just to change volume steps, really)
Screen recorder with internal audio recording
iOS Emojis
Some Tasker stuff that requires root
Swift Backup
SD Maid Pro
Main feature is custom kernel... It can realy provide a boost
@rickysidhu_ can you give me a link to the screen recording app please?

BlackenedMod (battery saving)
AdAway (no ads!)
YouTube Vanced (YouTube without ads and other cool features!)
Custom Themes (just a better colour palate for OEM colours in styles)
Viper4Android (awesome sound on speakers/earphones)
Centre Clock Mod (purely aesthetic)
TiB (backing up and restoring apps)
I haven't rooted since the first pixel. Haven't needed to. Adguard premium does what I need along with YouTube vanced.
I'll never bother messing with my phones again.

I'm rocking a P3xl, but I rooted for...
Advanced Charging Control module - allows me to control how the battery is charged - (ie lower the max charge to 80% and other things that should increase overall battery life)
Active Edge Mod (mostly standard settings, but can squeeze to take a picture when the camera is open instead of having to press the shutter button on the screen. This really helps when trying to hold the phone with one hand).
Viper4Android
AdAway
YouTube Vanced
ExperimentalX kernel - great kernel and it has high brightness mode (HBM) support too. (Like the Pixel 4 series, the 3a series has a max brightness that is actually lower than the screen is capable of. HBM overrides this and truly maxes the brightness. It really helps when using the phone outside in bright sunlight).
With the Pixel 4 series, I think being able to map the Soli gestures for other things might be very interesting too.
FINGERFACE!!!!!! How can Google release a flagship model with no FP sensor before getting all the banking/security apps to support the Face-unlock API???
They don't call it the bleeding edge for nothing and something had to come first; there would never be support without need and there is no need until someone creates it. Realistically Google has used their power over the ecosystem to require support and it's going to be ubiquitous in the near future. For now, some of us have to bleed a little bit...

No need to bleed, just root and install EdXposed and Fingerface.
No longer feel the need to root. System is working just fine and I'm using DNS66 from f-Droid with AdAway hosts. It's working absolutely fine without rooting.

Amazing Apps for the Xperia Z
A list of must-try applications
Hi guys, I've been trying out a lot of apps lately and I was surprised by the number of apps that go unnoticed when you're browsing the Play Store.
These may not be the most recent apps, but they're just apps that I think everyone should experience at least once.
None of these apps are specifically made for the Z, but they work well with it.
Anyway, I've put together a list of apps and a short description for them. Screenshots used are of my own phone.
I hope you like the suggestions, do give these apps a try.
Apps in this list may require -ROOT-.
This list contains -PAID- applications. (Please try the free versions of such app before purchasing)
Some apps run on the -XPOSED- framework.
All links to apps are to Play Store or XDA Thread.
App Settings:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDAThread
Ever change the phone's dpi and find out that some apps just don't look right? (Hint: Phone dialer on Xperia Z)
Well, now that's no longer a problem because you can keep different dpi for different apps. The App Settings Xposed module lets you set per app dpi & font size.
Camera FV-5:
|-PAID-|
Download from Play Store
When it comes to taking pictures, some people just want a camera that adjusts it's settings automatically. But if you're one of those peoples who likes DSLRs where you can adjust various parameters to get the "perfect shot", this is the app for you!
Camera FV-5 can also produce photos in PNG format, thus preserving high quality of pictures. Multiple focus modes, Shutter speed adjustment, Exposure adjustment, and the list goes on. Hands down the best professional camera app ever!
Delayed Lock:
|-ROOT-|-PAID-|
Download from Play Store
The main drawback of having a lockscreen pattern is that you have to enter it each time you want to unlock the device, even if it is only a few seconds after screen off. If you set a lock delay in settings, say 2 minutes after screen off, your phone will unlock right away. No slide lockscreen. The solution for this is to use Delayed Lock. Aside from the mentioned feature, it also has other useful plugins for WiFi based unlock, location based unlock, etc.
DroidCam:
Download from Play Store
Webcams suck because most of them have really bad picture quality. Wouldn't it be awesome if your phone's camera could work as a webcam?
Well, here's your solution. DroidCam can connect to your phone in multiple ways and stream video from your phone's camera to your PC.
You need to install software on your PC too. It is compatible with Windows and Linux.
GMDGesture Control:
|-ROOT-|-PAID-|
Download from Play Store
Having a 5 inch screen, I thought it would be awesome to be able to perform multitouch gestures to navigate between activities and control various device features.
GMD gesture Control proved to be exactly what I was looking for.
With a great levels of customization and an extensive feature set, this app is probably the best gesture control app you'll ever come across.
(Tip: In advanced settings, set Override touch events parser to: ICS_DEFAULT)
Greenify:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from Play Store
The worst part of having a ton of apps is that they drain battery even when you aren't using them.
Well, with Greenify, you pretty much ensure that applications that you don't need running in the background will be hibernated when you aren't using them!
It's very simple to use & very low on resources.
History Eraser:
Download from Play Store
If you're like me, then you hate having any sort of history on your device. History Eraser erases history from apps like the browser, play store, call logs, etc. at the touch of a button.
It also has a handy 1x1 widget for this.
Icon Themer:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDA Thread
This Xposed module can change system icons. The beauty of it is that it can be used for all launchers.
Everytime a resource is requested, it responds with the corresponding resource that the theme redirects to.
Lockscreen Policy:
Download from Play Store
One feature I hate in 4.2.x is that the camera is accessible over the lockscreen. I have also noticed a number of people who do not like the idea of having widgets on the lockscreen. Lockscreen Policy allows you to disable lockscreen widgets and/or camera.
MoDaCo Toolkit:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDA Thread
This handy set of tweaks runs on the Xposed framework.
Good for ROM customization.
SD Maid:
|-ROOT-|
Download from Play Store
SD Maid can clear up unnecessary data from your phone. No more do you need to worry about apps leaving behind traces of data after uninstall.
It also has useful features like Corpsefinder, which finds traces of uninstalled apps and Duplicates, which finds duplicate copies of files which can help you save space.
Sidebar Pro:
|-PAID-|
Download from Play Store
An amazing app that puts a sidebar on the phone which can hold app shortcuts and/or a list of open apps.
It is an overlay on the screen and doesn't interfere with functioning of other applications.
A must have for multitaskers!
SoftkeyZ:
|-ROOT-|-PAID-|
Download from Play Store
Easily change your Navbar's softkeys with this app.
Occasionally causes problems, but if you're an experienced user, you will have no problems fixing it.
Startup Manager:
|-ROOT-|
Download from Play Store
A great app to manage startup of applications. Many apps launch on boot that considerably slow down the phone. Not only that, but they also end up draining battery if they are not killed.
Startup manager lets you decide what apps will launch on boot. It can also control startup of system applications.
Trickster Mod:
|-ROOT-|
Download from Play Store
Trickster MOD is a nice, easy-to-use tweaker. It may not have a ton of options, but it does have the most useful ones and the ones that really matter.
It also has these "tools" that help you change your device's hostname, trigger the media scanner and connect through ADB over WiFi.
Wakelock Detector:
Download from Play Store
I was huge fan of Better Battery Stats, but of late, I've been having problems with it. I was searching for a good replacement, which is when I came across this app.
A humble app that shows you a list of wakelocks. Does the job well and does not consume additional resources.
XBackground:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDA Thread
An Xposed module that can change the background for the Xposed Installer app as well as the background of the notification bar.
Needs a reboot to take effect.
Xposed Installer:
|-ROOT-|
Download from XDA Thread
The Xposed Installer installs the Xopsed framework and helps to manage Xposed modules.
This framework is compatible accross most ROMs. An absolute must for people who love customizing their phones.
Xposed Tweakbox:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDA Thread
Another Xposed module for small tweaks and customizations.
The CRT animation is particularly interesting.
XThemeEngine:
|-ROOT-|-XPOSED-|
Download from XDA Thread
Ever wanted to use CM themes on a non-CM ROM? More specifically, have you ever wanted T-Mobile Theme Engine themes on a ROM that doesn't have the T-Mobile Theme Engine built in?
Well, this is the answer. XThemeEngine does exactly that. The drawback though is that it's limited in it's scope and not everything works perfectly (The project is still in beta). Also, themes need to be ported and cannot be directly used as is.
Zooper Widget:
Download from Play Store
Don't you love an app that lets you create your own widgets? Zooper Widget allows you to create highly customizable widgets.
It's quite light on resources too.
I hope this post was informative.
Took me quite a while to put this together, and it's not really what I usually do, but I thought I'd put in the effort anyway.

I don't own a PS3 (PCGamer ), so I have never used the app. I will however add it to the list later.
I wonder if it will work with my Xbox 360 Wired Controller for Windows. Some games do support the Xbox controller without having to modify anything.
I'll test it out tomorrow when I get back home.

Nope, I'm on an odexed stock ROM. Some tweaks may not work, some might. All of them need a reboot to take effect & also ensure that you enabled the module in Xposed.

This is most likely not related to Xposed framework.
Try and do a full charge to 100% and see if it's just a random problem.
Firstly mods, I apologize if this is in the wrong place. Please feel free to move it!
So lets get started. What are the "must have" apps that everybody is using on their MM MXPE? Whats working and what's broken?
Right now I am using:
Nova Launcher(donate)
Titanium Backup Pro
ES File Explorer
xPosed w/ GravityBox(Greenify module not yet activated)
Greenify
Root Booster
SD Booster
Uninstaller Pro
I'm probably missing one or two... I haven't installed BB from the free BusyBox Installer app as I haven't checked compatibility. I like Root Booster but I don't want to pay for the pro edition and while the simplicity is nice, the lack of fine grain control and any real explanation of what it is doing to achieve its promised gains is kind of a turn off. I wish there was a good, free, alternative that has an easy and intuitive interface that allows for not only one tap mods but further fine grain control. I know there are various options available but for some reason I see many people recommend Root Booster. Also, I swear xposed and/or GB are hitting my battery and I'm certainly not doing anything exotic with them. Anyway, What is everybody else using? What are your MM compatible must haves for the MXPE? Anything that takes advantage of some of our specific to MXPE features and the 6.0 iteration that we presently limited to? Share your list here!
Have to be careful using Greenify if you wish to enable all options (mainly hibernating system apps).. It causes unexpected restarts.
Titanium Backup Pro can detect nandroid backup on sd card ?? i cant
Naptime. It lets you activate doze when the screen turns off or you can set by amount of time, instead of the phone having to be flat and motionless for 30 minutes.

I have a Note 3 which I'm looking to make into my backup phone/dedicated GPS. It's currently on 4.4.2 and I would like to believe that, in the intervening major versions, many of the missing (obvious) OS features which made Xposed so necessary are now available as stock system options. Being familiar with the awful, pervasive anti-customization/pro-simplicity/for-dummies mobile development philosophy that now threatens even PC software, I'm afraid I'm probably wrong.
Ideally, of course, I'd want Xposed on my yet-to-be-determined 7.x phone, but if that isn't going to happen, I'd like to know if there are built-in options now to partially replace great Xposed modules like:
NotifyClean - In Android N, can I set rules to totally block specific notifications?
NeverSleep - Set certain applications to disable sleep mode when active?
Wanam Xposed - Theming options (assuming I go with a Samsung phone)?
Xposed LED Control - Different LED colors per notification type?
DoubleTapToSleep - Sleep without using a hard button?
BootManager
Network Speed Indicator
If someone familiar with Android N could comment on the list above, I'd be very grateful. I'd rather buy a 'new' older phone than get an S8 or similar and find (assuming there's even a root exploit) that my phone is crippled versus my nearly 4 years old Note 3.
Notifiyclean can be substituted by power notification controls, which I don't know if it comes with stock rom, but I know it's there for the rom I'm using.
Neversleep can be substituted by the caffeine toggle, if your rom has it. I believe you can also find it on the play store to use if it's not built-in.
Wanam Xposed, I haven't used in ages. Can't even remember what it does...
LED Control should be built-in, if not custom roms.
DoubleTapToSleep should be your kernel.
Bootmanager, I'm unsure... Maybe alternatives with root?
Network Speed Indicator can be done with apps or built-in from custom roms.

Thanks... It sounds like I should be able to get by without Xposed, though I don't know if I'll ever be able to install a custom ROM considering I will probably end up with an AT&T phone. I guess first I need to find a rootable phone.
Is there an alternative to App Settings module, to allow for per-app dpi settings without Xposed, because android n?

My first idea was Tasker, but I am not sure if you can modify the dpi value with Tasker itself. I guess with the help of an appropriate plugin, you should be able to set the dpi on a per-app base.
So sorry if this is not the right section, but I wanted to know for you, what are the best modules for Xposed Framework

removed the "gravitybox framework not responding" error on api 24 and 25
also re-branded the app as gravitybox for nougat

data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
skip tracks with volume buttons

Not working:
Stock battery with percentage
Quick Settings
Lock screen shortcuts

download links for sdk 24 and 25 are the same

uninstall the old one, otherwise it'll give "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION: Package com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox attempting to redeclare permission gravitybox.permission.UNLOCK already owned by com.ceco.marshmallow.gravitybox]" error
Since I won't have a lot of time to port everything (btw, I'm already late for one thing right now) so I expect the community to help.
That's why I posted the source at github, this way anyone can collaborate to the code.
Anyone that helps me will get credit too, just claim it someway I can see it
brick fix by @photoguy29
To fix this: Reboot to TWRP recovery and navigate to: Advanced>File Manager>data>data>com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox
Once you are in the com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox folder, in the bottom right corner is a folder Icon. Tap that icon>delete
This will delete all the changes you made in Gravitybox, and upon reboot, the System UI functions properly. The gravitybox apk will also still be installed, so you can go and re-activate your tweaks that WERE working.
credits to @C3C076 creator of gravitybox
For me works:
battery
center clock + day of the week
data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
Not works:
Lock screen shortcuts
Setting of the optional button
Why that rush?
I have already migrated like 90% of the module to Nougat after working for almost 2 weeks on it non-stop. Currently QS management is undergoing redesign and there's still quite a lot of work left. It's still a work in progress - not suitable to be made available to the masses and also, I am still not convinced whether to release something as there is no official Xposed Framework. I'll see.
@ C3CO76
Because I like it a lot your gravity box [emoji41] [emoji39]

I'm glad you like it. But then it doesn't make any sense to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use.
Feel me?
@C3C076 i guess people love GB so much
This ported xposed for N situation is confusing but people are desperate to have xposed and their beloved modules even if its partially working
Can't live without gb's pie control

sorry, I didn't knew it, I looked into the git and thought that no one would do it anymore (because nougat had been here for a long time)
but still a lot of people are just crazy like me that wants it even if sacrifices need to be made, just like people wants an unstable xposed rather then nothing, they want the gravitybox
and no one uses every tweak available like me, I just use one or two and both works
I'm glad to see you haven't abandoned the project, I wouldn't be able to do it like you
and please release it, for people like us, there are 66422 downloads on the xposed for nougat thread (counting the xposed installer app because it's the same for both api levels and only one version) not counting people like me that downloaded it from the alternate link.
sort of 66422 persons waiting for gravitybox to be released even if it breaks something
and not everyone knows how to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use, I learned how to use xposed 3 years before learning something that would allow me to do this port (and it still sucks)
Yes, I understand. Hard to tell what comes next at this time. I will be taking decisions after I am happy enough with the migration results and the results of internal testing on various device/OS combinations I have at hand.
not working : deactivate network type indicator in status bar
Is lockscreen transparency and blur working
Not working: Navigation bar tweaks
Activating the master switch will cause the System UI to crash upon reboot.
To fix this: Reboot to TWRP recovery and navigate to: Advanced>File Manager>data>data>com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox
Once you are in the com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox folder, in the bottom right corner is a folder Icon. Tap that icon>delete
This will delete all the changes you made in Gravitybox, and upon reboot, the System UI functions properly. The gravitybox apk will also still be installed, so you can go and re-activate your tweaks that WERE working.
I hope this helps
Stock battery with percentage not working for me.
I believe what this guy is doing, is a good thing, if people get into installing Xposed modules that are unofficial they should know that it's unstable, and in most cases can brick your device. CT, I do see where you're coming from, but it's along the lines of "People don't kill people, guns do." No, that's not how the world works, and everyone on the Internet should be able to share what they want.
Thanks for the mod, working battery percentage (buggy), skip tracks with volume buttons, clock settings, advances power menu. Moto G5+ stock rom sdk 24 Xposed systemless (magisk)
Patience is a virtue...

yes, that's what I meant
if you use any xposed version with any module, custom roms, root, any mods you shouldn't care about stability (people do but they shoudn't)
by the way, I looked on the Gravitybox git and I saw no nougat branch
so I did this because I thought that either the creator wouldn't make any more releases or he hadn't started (and if he wanted to use my as base because of the mm to n naming changes could save him like 5 minutes and I wanted to help and this is all the only help I can give)
and I had this mod for myself because Center clock and round battery works and I only use thoose
but I thought on the people at the same situation that coudn't do It by themselves
but thanks again for C3C076 for being patient with my impatience
I'm happy it won't be my job to port the rest of it because it'd be baaad
