How can I install xposed on Galaxy Tab A [T550]?

I'm new to Android and the whole 'rooting' thing, but generally able to search and solve most of my technology related problems. I can't, for the life of me, figure out how to get Xposed. The tablet is rooted, and I believe running stock rom on lollipop 5.0.2.

I've tried searching XDA, Google, etc but most instructions seem to be general guides and for devices outside of what I'm looking for. I installed a custom recovery and read that a deoxed custom rom was required, but again am having difficulty locating anything compatible with the device. Am I over complicating this or can it just not be done for some models?
[General Questions and Answers] xunholyx:
Yes there is. With ADB.

The command is adb reboot-recovery

---------- Post added at 05:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------

You didn't search hard enough.

I entered "lollipop xposed framework" in Google (because I didn't remember the link), and this was hit #1. That's exactly the thread you need.

First root on fresh Android device -- what now?

Hi,

New to rooting Android devices here, but more than technically capable (cell phones were just never my "thing" - call me an old fuddy duddy :p ). My questions are, I believe, simple - yet it seems to be unclear where the answers may be or maybe they're just obfuscated. I've tried the Search function here @ XDA quite a bit, but with only minimal success. Here's where I stand in the process currently:

DEVICE: LG Optimus Exceed 2 [Verizon "pre-paid" device, model no. VS450PP] (Best Buy was selling these things for $15, so I bought 3. From research, I think these are very similar to the L70 model as well)

OS: KitKat 4.4.2

ROOTED: Yes [Towelroot - couldn't have been easier]

POST-ROOT: 1) Installed SuperSU for root control, 2) Installed Link2SD to get rid of bloatware, ability to move apps to SD card, and I plan on buying the Pro version once I get going to migrate individual AppData over to SD as well. (unless you all know of something better than Link2SD for this)

Questions

:

SuperSU -- The way it sounds, this controls apps' access to root permissions on an individual per-app basis, is this correct?

"Recovery" ?? ClockworkMod? I didn't have to mess with any of this -- I just booted up the phone, bypassing the carrier activation stuff, and used the towelroot APK to root. Do I need to worry about recovery? What's it do?

The Big Question: I've just rooted my brand spankin' new Android device... what kinds of cool stuff can I make it do!?

I know I can't have been the first to wonder this, so apologies if this is a huge repeat. But as I said, I tried to Search the forum here but didn't have a lot of results. If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Any good threads to check out here, or any links to other websites with info. Basically, any suggestions for some cool stuff to try, really useful apps to check out, any added functionality or hidden features that rooting the phone gives me - things of this nature. I'm not looking for pirated games or anything of that sort, I'm more into the gadget tinkering side of it. I'm not looking to do a total conversion mod or install a custom ROM or anything too involved just yet, I'm more interested in exploring Android and figuring out system-level tricks and those sorts of things.

Thanks in advance for any tips, suggestions, etc.

I started uploading movies from my phone to the weiyun cloud using the play store weiyun app . While uploading , the speed reaches upto 200 MBps :eek:. Can someone tell me how , since my upload speed is much much lower. Also after a few days I started downloading a movie . The download speed never went above 10kBps :(. What happened was this ; when I selected the option for download and navigated to the page where it shows the download happening , the download speed shows about 2-3 MBps and then immediately drop to 4-5 kBps and will then fluctuate between 0-15 kBps :( . Also within a few minutes the download would be shown as completed . But ,when I open my sdcard where the movie was supposed to be downloaded , only 1 MB of the movie will have been downloaded ; this is always the case , always only 1 MB will be downloaded no matter which movie I select to download . All this happens using the mobile app for weiyun that Tencent provides on the play store . Please provide me with advice on how to go about this situation . I live in India but I doubt that could be the reason for this , also I flashed a TWRP recovery before I went about trying to download the movies . Could that be interfering with my download speed . Please help ..

Probably an odd question...

Hi guys,

I have one question:

I would like to customize (deodex, add mods, etc.) an xperia z2 rom based on .548 firmware but get stuck at making my stock prerooted rom with recovery and busybox looking like, for instance, existenz y (see pictures attached).

I have done a lot of research but either I am

1. search wrong

2. reading the wrong stuff

3. am too dumb

I know that I have to extract the system.ext4 file and probably have to delete the assf and fota files.

I would appreciate it very much, if one of you guys would point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance.
[General Questions and Answers] TechMod:
Here are your Answers:

1. Yes. SuperSU tells you when an application tries to get root-privileges. You have about ten seconds to decide whether to grant or deny them. If this (or superuser) is NOT installed, every app that requires root can achieve it.

2. Every phone has got a stock recovery with limited options. A custom recovery (cwm, twrp, philz etc.) provides you with advanced options such as (VERY important) making a whole backup file from your system partition. This must be done when you mod your device, because when your modification goes bad, you can fall back to that backup as long as you can access recovery.

3. You can make your phone do a lot of stuff. You can instal complete customized roms, delete systemapps or bloatware you don´t need, apply modifications to your rom such as: control of the LED-light, install soundmods (like Viper4Android) to boost your music-listening experience and much more. Just do a search in your device´s forum and you will see a lot stuff people do.

Enjoy and cheers!

We don't try to be mean. Its just that most noobs ask questions that could have easily been answered for themselves with a simple Google search. You don't even have to understand what you're looking for, all it takes is typing what you are looking for into the Google search bar and the first few links in your search results should have what you are looking for.
[General Questions and Answers] HunnyPi:
Hello there! Okay, answer to #1 Yes, basically. Your questions two and three kinda go hand in hand. Recovery (clockworkmod or twrp) is the only way to flash a custom ROM onto your phone, it has many other uses as well that I myself have yet to discover but you do need it if you are planning on customizing. Seeing as how you "bypassed" installing a custom recovery (your phone already has its own stock recovery but you can't access it) you will need to install one if you would like to do cool stuff to it. I had to learn this the hard way, i also did the towelroot thing without installing recovery with Odin and couldn't install a ROM without recovery. Bummer.

I think I covered all your questions but here is a more detailed explanation about recovery...http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2633150

And keep searching XDA you will always find answers here.:p:D

Oh yeah and I read this about six times..http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s2/general/guide-beginners-rooted-phone-t1592104

It explains what you can do after rooting, much better than I did. Lol. Happy customizing!:p

Firmware problem in Zopo ZP980

Hello,

Few days ago I got an encryption unsucessfull error on my android phone, I researched this error and found that I have to reinstall the firmware and that I had lost all my datas from the memory.

I downloaded the firmware in the official site and also the Flash Tool but the phone started a boot loop and afterwards a low battery loop. The problem is that I can not charge the battery because every time I plug in the power socket the low battery loop start and the battery is not charged, the same occurs when I connect in PC by USB.

Can you help me ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi

The flashfire fire of flashing back to

5.01 worked it seems to help

Smooth out bumps from kingroot,

Root . Pay attention to instructions

On how to use any errors could soft brick

Phone my Verizon recovery tool always

Rescued me if . My phone came from

E Bay . So it wasn't truly unlocked .

They have cheaper S4 but they all come

Installed with that new Knox lock.

So I hope to load a new boot manager .

This is the key to truly breaking free.

You will hit many walls with Knox locked

Down. Be sure you can always restore

With some type external recovery avoid

Wiping external you may loose setting

To phone. All mods are installed to extended sd. Versus ext. So when you mod you loose the external sd making

Recovery from external worthless.

Still learning .

I found that Verizon fix my phone manager on a wild card search it's not offered from Verizon unless you have account. So search for a copy on the Web

It's your only safety net if yor phone bricks hopefully ATT has something similar.

My New moder concepts may not 100%

Correct about problems and concepts.

But I have survived several hard bricks

And soft bricked by using the recovery.

I am New :)

Hello guys i am very happy to find a website specially make for this. Anyway I have been searching for answers but i still cannot find it.

My problem is that i am rooted using KingoRoot which was successful. ( checked with root checker and SU command)

But after rooting, i realise i was not able to write to system thus not able to install busybox. I have search the forums about how to mount r/w permissions using terminal emulator commands. ( I have type in su before typing the commands) But all i get was operation not permitted. I have used es explorer, root explorer to enable the r/w to system but it failed. I also used the mounting r/w app but it did not work.

*So my question is how do i mount r/w to my system.

Sorry for asking this question but i hope you guys can help me :)

Fastboot Help...

Okay, so up front I know I boffed this.

I have an LG G3, rooted, TWRPd, and for a while was running the Illusion rom with no issues...

Recently decided to sell it and wanted to return to stock via a Nandroid backup. But due to a brain freeze forgot to wipe the cache/partition before doing so. Now I seem to be in a softbrick mode that keeps giving me fastboot error codes. Can't seem to get the computer to recognize the device, so no ADB commands will work.

I've also tried getting back to recovery via the buttons. I get to the screen that asks for "factory reset yes or no" but choosing yes just triggers another fastboot error. And choosing no does the same.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :D

I think titanium backup is what you need for the calendar, will completely back up calendar apk and data.

Consider making a temporary google account for the contacts (and maybe the calendar) with a disposable email (like 10minutemail.com) and then delete it afterwards.

Have you tried different USB ports? 2.0? 3.0?

Do you have an insecure kernel on your device so that adb will work? It won't without it, secure kernels block adb.

Does your device have a setting for adb root access?
