A few days ago I posted a question about not being able to install any Xposed modules here, so far no one answered: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-framework-installed-running-t3567230
I thought this problem had something to do with the modules specifically, but it turns out that on my phone, for whatever reason, installing the framework subsequently prevents ALL apps from installing, even those from Google Play itself, displaying a "-504" error.
I see people have asked this question before, but are also not getting answers: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/install-apps-installing-framework-t3430922
Please, if anyone has any idea of why this can be and how to fix it, let me know. Any help will be infinitely appreciated!
What phone and ROM are you using?
One thing you could try is to install systemless Xposed through Magisk. Then use MagiskHide to hide both root and Xposed from all Google apps and potential sources of conflict. If it's a software limitation/conflict, this may be a workaround.
Keep in mind that you will have to root your phone with Magisk rather than SuperSU or any other form of root.

Hey, thank you for your answer!
I am using a Sony Xperia M4 Aqua E2306, rom is 26.1.A.1.112 Latin America Generic. It is rooted and with TWRP installed accroding to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/m4-aqua/general/root-e2306-m4-aqua-guide-t3270521
I also have a locked bootloader, and it cannot be unlocked, so unfortunately that shuts the door on most rooting options.
I never heard of Magisk before, but from what I'm seeing, it looks it TWRP is required to get root with Magisk, but some kind of root is already required on my phone in order to get TWRP. So I'm not sure how to go about this.
If your phone is already rooted, then you can download Magisk Manager application and have it installed it's necessary frameworks through the app itself. You won't be able to use Magisk's root, but you'll still be able to install systemless Xposed and hide it from other apps.
Edit: Ignore all of that actually, I just realized that magisk requires boot image modifications so you have to have an unlocked bootloader to use it.

Oh well, thanks anyway. I might try it anyways, maybe it will work, you never know. Don't have much to lose at this point

FIY Magisk cannot hide Xposed...
I also facing these problem on my rooted Asus zenfone 2 (ze550ml 2gb ram version, Stock ROM, bootloader unlocked) and Asus Zenpad C 7 (p01y, stock rom, bootloader unlocked). The xposed firmware (version 86) is successfully install but can't install any apps from play store and using apk...
I really hope that dev team can solve it.....
Sorry for any grammatical mistakes....
The only way is to flash the firmware
I'm getting the same problem on my LG G4 with v88.2 of Xposed :/
I don't Know if this is too late,but I also have this problem. But there is a work around, go into the xposed installer and turn the switch off so its disabled on the next boot. rebot the device and exposed and its modules are disabled, allowing you to install apps from play store and downloaded .apk files... it would still be nice to install applications while its still on.

I had this issue on my LGG3. This happens when you have Lucky Patcher enabled in your xposed modules. Disabling it (Lucky Patcher) should solve the problem.
[Problem]
I noticed google pay not working after enjoying magisk happily for two days.
[Research]
I searched the forum and found many others have issue with google pay, too.
[Trial]
I started to do something with the hope to solve this problem.
1. I changed the update channel to beta test and installed magisk v19. Google pay was not working.
2. I then changed back to stable update channel to install magisk v18. Strange thing happened.
3. Phone booted fine but magisk manager detected no trace of magisk. I re-flashed patched_boot.img. Same thing, magisk was gone.
4. I am on stock ROM (S6 edge) and installed magisk by patching boot.img. I had no TWRP recovery. I could not do much under this circumstance.
5. So, I was in a situation of missing magisk and disabled google pay.
[Final]
I flashed the stock ROM via odin.
1. The google pay was working again in stock ROM (without root).
2. I lost magisk (and root).
I will install magisk again if google pay can work with it. The problem is the security check by google. I still hope there will be some work-around method.
You can never be certain that a dirty downgrade will work. You can of course try, but be prepared for trouble.
If I remember correctly, in this case, simply uninstalling the Manager and reinstalling the apk that comes bundled with v18.1 might have fixed things.
MagiskHide didn't wotk so I used Hide Magisk Manager feature. It works fine but then I encounter several problems after I used that feature. Magisk is v20.0 and Magisk Manager v7.3.5 (the latest).
My phone is Xiaomi Redmi 4X with custom ROM from AospExtended v6.7 (Android Pie 9.0).
- Youtube (or specifically Vanced) doesnt appear at all in the app drawer. I've tried reinstalling & rebooting several times using Magisk Manager but it still doesn't appear. I even installed 2 Vanced modules from Magisk Manager but I still cant find either of those in the app drawer. But then, I tried uninstalling those modules, it tells me to reboot, right? I reboot my phone but none of those are uninstalled. Both of them are still in the Magisk Module with "module will be removed at the next reboot" warning even AFTER rebooting my phone!
I also tried installing Vanced manually with the non-root version but the app wont install. Basically, I cant use Youtube at all!
- This problem with Magisk Module doesnt only happen in Vanced. I think it also happens in other module. My Blobmoji is installed but the emoji I have isn't the blobmoji, it's the built in one instead.
- I dont know if this is related but the wifi won't connect at all. It just keeps "searching" for connetion despite my home has 2 wifi routers.
It might be related, it might be not, but I've used this custom ROM for nearly a year and I havent faced any wifi problem at all. There was no major update from the ROM from the last few weeks either. Coincidentally, this problem happens after this Hide Magisk Manager fiasco, thats why I put this one here.
What happens? What should I do?
Hi guys. I need some help for my rooted galaxy note 8. I had rooted my phone a long ago and all was working good. All apps including banking apps were working fine with magisk hide. But few days ago i wanted to update my phone so i flashed stock rom with odin and updated my device. Earlier my bootloader version was 6 and now its updated to version 8. Then after updating i flashed latest twrp and rooted with magisk. I flashed magisk version 20.1 and magisk manager version was 7.4.0 . Then magisk update was available so i updated to magisk version 20.2 and magisk manager to version 7.5.0 . Now the problem starts. I am facing 3 issues.
1- my phone starts freezing and then reboots randomly. It happens quite frequently atleast 2-3 times in a day. Every time i clear cache partition from twrp but problem persists. I had checked ram also but ram useage is also fine. Please help me with this issue.
2- while searching for the solution of above problem i read somewhere that it might be because of safety net check. Earlier safetynet check was pass but now safety net check was fail. I flashed bypass safety net mod. But when my phone reboot a warning appears that your device has some internal problem. Contact the manufacturer. I pressed ok and phone starts. It seems to work normal but then i realised my device was not connecting to any wifi network. When i click on available wifi nothing happened. So i uninstalled the safety net bypass mod and then wifi start working again.
3- now final thing i want to know. If the above problem did not solve then i have to unroot my phone which i dont want. But if i had to then i dont want to flash stock rom. I want to unroot from magisk app itself. I had edited build.prop file for using samsung health app. So now if i unroot from magisk app will the changes made by me in build.prop file remain or it will revert back. Also will banking apps work or not....
I know its very lengthy post but please help
Wow...

Try going back to previous version of Magisk. I have Snapdragon N8 so I have supersu. But I did update my A20g with newest Magisk and had an issue. I know you have N8 but was just saying maybe could be new Magisk.
My SM-N950U Still Rooted Note 8
I have Magisk 20.1 (Magisk Manager 7.5.1) currently installed on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016). While initially installing it was not as straight forward as it might have been (install doc could use some work; I think it's written for folks with more familiarity with android devices on a day to day basis than those who root a phone maybe once every few years); I installed Magisk and it's been working fine.
However, this morning I had a notification that I needed to run Magisk setup. I told it to do so; it downloaded something; rebooted the tablet ( which wasn't warned of in the notification); and on coming back up ran Busybox so I'm assuming that was the setup. Going into Magisk Manager, however, I got the same notification over again. So I let it update again with the same result.
This time I told it to cancel the update/setup. I then tried to manually do the update from 20.1 (20100) to 20.3 (20300, latest available version). Update proceeded normally until repacking; which failed. Since Magisk is already installed and working (with several root level apps) on this phone; I can't see where this could be the "wrong image problem" which seems to be the most prevalent root cause of this kind of error. Unfortunately the update as distributed doesn't say anything about *why* it can't repack the image; so the message doesn't help us ordinary folks in debugging.
Any ideas as to what the actual issue is?
Android info:
Version 8.1.0
Kernel 3.18.14-1570595
Build M1AJQ.T580UEU4CSC1
Note: Busybox had an update I believe came out sometime yesterday (saw notification it updated successfully). Could it be that something in the Busybox update broke the Magisk update process?
