[Droid Ultra General] ahjee:
So using Xposed I installed the Gravity Box module, all the tweaks and settings stick no problem...what is odd though is after a reboot or two i'd say, my home button stops responding...it won't take me home nor will it allow me to access Google Now with it either. Now, knowing that it has something to do with Xposed and Gravity Box, i decided to clean all xposled framework and modules off the rom but home button still won't work....I end up being forced to restore to stock using RSD Lite

What i did was, install Xposed, then Gravity Box....but i should mention i had other Modules installed to such as Greenify, Halo Floating Window, Xtheme Engine and maybe one or two other that escape my mind at the moment, I am curious if the combination of modules installed is the cause of my home key no longer responding.

Has anyone experienced this using Gravity Box? If so any other modules installed? What settings and tweaks do you generally use with Gravity Box (help narrow the issue).

If absolutely no one else is having this problem then i have some research and trouble shooting to do.

In order for xposed framework to be installed correctly you must first obtain root. In order to obtain root access, see Jcase's thread here> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2444954.

In that thread you will find a link to an apk, this apk will do everything needed to get root on its own, simply download the apk, install like any other application, run it....it will reboot your phone 2 or 3 times, once it has stopped rebooting your phone, the app will disappear and you will then have root access.

Okay, you have root!

Now that you have root use an app like "rebooter" or Rom Toolbox Pro or Lite if you havent purchased this great app (I highly recommend Rom Toolbox if you're a geek like me) and reboot into recovery...on our phones (as of now) there isn't a "recovery menu" such as CWM or TWRP, it simply reboots the phone into Android OS with the system being RW instead of R, that means you have the ability modify system apps like remove or add or swap them to user apps.

Okay, when you are booted into "recovery mode" you should install Xposed, select any modules you want to install as well and install them now while still in recovery mode. After you install the framework and mods, reboot the phone again...if you do not need to make any changes in the xposed mods you installed then just boot up regularly BUT if you need to make changes say within Gravity Box, you MUST MUST MUST reboot into recovery mode because any changes made within these apps (in this case Gravity Box) they won't stick, so if you wanna make your clock centered and add a few tiles they'll only stick if your booted into recovery mode, other wise they will not be applied after reboot.

1. use Jcases root method

2. boot OS into recovery

3. Install xposed framework and selected modules

4. Select mods and tweaks and apply them while still in recovery mode

5. Reboot to experience the benefits!

Just wanted to share this in case some newbie hops in the thread not knowing what's going on and how to do this stuff, I don't mean to clutter the thread or offend those who already know, just trying help those who may be new to all of this.

If I made any mistakes please feel free to correct me:good:
