Much thx!!! :good:

[Xposed Framework Modules] siealex:

[Xposed Framework Modules] milojoseph:
Credit to me with the suggestions of deleting apk after install. :).,

P.s it should have a dialog saying Are you sure that you want to delete apk. And user preference to disable the dialogue
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
No, since it is experimental (expert mode) feature.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kocane:
Is it related to this module that I suddenly cant install some apps I've never even had installed before? I had the external sd card option checked quite some days ago but I couldnt install anything then (insufficient storage available) so I disabled it and it worked fine until today where I cant anymore. Some apps are ok but most are not. Tried clearing dalvik, lucky patcher's odex and cache of playstore.

Any ideas :(?
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Disable module using switch in XInstaller's settings & try again if it will work. I think you should NOT install all apps on external SD. Probably partition for apps is full. That is it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kocane:
No change. Had tried disabling the module + xposed completely before but no change. Damn android! Previously Ive experienced it where apps wouldnt update but then I could delete the app's folder in /data/app-lib/ but this isnt the case here cause I've never had the apps installed.
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Sadly, I can confirm this Android issue. I will never buy device with 8 or 16 GB internal storage. You should do what I did, just remove some big unused apps.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kocane:
Won't help, it's not actually related to space left.
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Then I can't help and it is not issue caused by this module.
[Xposed Framework Modules] siealex:
Android does not allow to install apps if you have less than 3% free space.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Kocane:
I've 8GB+ free. It's a normal issue.

Myeah I guess not.. Ive no idea what I did but I made it work again. Maybe something with set-install-location. But yeah, probably not xinstaller.
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:

[MENTION=5064841]pyler[/MENTION]: A good "security enhancement" would be to allow configuring of package names which does not check signature.

[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:

[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Ok, I use something like this

@Override
public void initZygote(StartupParam startupParam) throws Throwable {
final Class<?> packageManagerService = XposedHelpers.findClass(

"com.android.server.pm.PackageManagerService",
DisableSignatureCheck.class.getClassLoader());
XposedHelpers.findAndHookMethod(packageManagerService,
"compareSignatures", Signature[].class, Signature[].class, new XC_MethodHook() {
@Override
protected void beforeHookedMethod(MethodHookParam param)
throws Throwable {
mPrefs.reload();
mEnabledModule = mPrefs.getBoolean("disable_signature_check", true);
XposedBridge.log("mEnabledModule= " + mEnabledModule);
}
@Override
protected void afterHookedMethod(MethodHookParam param)
throws Throwable {
if (mEnabledModule) {
//signature match
param.setResult(PackageManager.SIGNATURE_MATCH);
}
}
});

but this doesnt work. I uncheck setting (Disable signature check) for it, values is changed in prefs file but nothing changes. I can still install apks with different signatures.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MohammadAG:
Are you using PreferenceActivity? If so, override getSharedPreferences and return

super.getSharedPreferences(name, Context.MODE_WORLD_READABLE);

Basically, your preference file is not readable outside its user, make it world readable.

There's also mPrefs.makeWorldReadable(), you can put that before the reload I guess, though not sure how it'd work well there.

I put it when initialising XSharedPreferences. It works there.

Edit: Also, pass null for the class loader, no need to get the class loader yourself. Xposed handles it in initZygote.

[Xposed Framework Modules] asdfasdfvful:
So does the update mean we can toggle without rebooting? And I'm assuming this will also allow us to install older versions of an app?

And a suggestion for security: (if it no longer required a reboot) have the module automatically disable itself after one x minutes or x third party updates, or definitely have it disable upon reboot

Edit: still requires reboot

Edit: It appears that this only happens on my Note 2...v3.8 works fine on my Tab3 7inch and on my Note 4 DE. I just can't get it to work on my Note 2?

Edit 2: I got it working. Had to uninstall v3.7, reboot, install v3.8 (nothing checked), reboot....then check the option I wanted and reboot. Did no restores....now working on my Note 2 :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Looki75:
I experienced that one as well...

V3.8 activated in xPosed.

I install an app and that installation makes the phone reboot immediately.

Then it is in bootloop.

Something to do with Dalvik Cache I guess, because if you just boot and deactivate XPosed with 5 times press button the phone starts up and briefly shows the "updating system" window (the one that appears when Dalvik Cache is built upon startup).

Then if you just reactivate xPosed and reboot (xinstaller v3.8 activated) it just boots fine...

Help! ;)

Hello,

Ready for a probably stupid question (can't find the answer)

what's the difference between 'checking signatures' in "Disable" and "verifying signatures in "Misc" when Expert mode is active. Hopefully i don't get the answer "this means you're not an expert" :)

FYI: "checking signatures" disabled works fine in latest Dirty Unicorns 4.4.4
[Xposed Framework Modules] Blizzard22:
Edit: Version 3.0 does somehow work (close after install) and auto uninstall.

Auto install still doesn't work (i have to press ok if I install an update and then install or just install).

And I don't really know if every other option does really work.

Every version after 3.0 does not do anything.

I switched several options on and off but it doesn't do anything different.

Suggestion

Really love this module! No problem for me with latest version.

Would it be possible to launch package installer in an ongoing notification when installing an app so it doesn't occupy the whole screen, for example when downloading a xposed module in the background which is installed after the download has finished. Or maybe installing could be hidden completely just like when uninstalling an app? And then a toast or notification is shown which says "Successfully Installed" (or "Not Installed").

If there is a parsing error or something that keeps an app from being istalled, could you add a toast or notification informing about that there was an error? Because of auto closing after installing I sometimes do not recognize a problem has occured.

Regards
[Xposed Framework Modules] Looki75:
Are you sure you followed the instructions exactly as written?

Because... At first I tried a shorter way, I thought "common, no need to reboot after installing v3.8..." and I set it up immediately and then activated and reboot...

Well... That didn't work.

It's only when I did exactly what was written that it worked.

To be on the safe side :

1. Deactivate v3.7 in XPosed installer, reboot

2. Uninstall v3.7, reboot

3. Install v3.8 through XPosed installer, activate, reboot

4. Setup v3.8, reboot

5. You might be fine!

Tell us how it went...
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Guys, I got it!

I am almost sure where is error. You have enabled option "Install apps on external storage", havent you? Because this explains everything for me. Quite a lot apps (and Xposed modules especially) CAN'T be installed on external storage. If you did it, your device immediatelly reboots (bad things could happen). Untick this option and reinstall module.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Looki75:
Rebooting while installing an xposed module, yes I had this one.

But... I don't like having any app on external storage, so I always had the option unchecked up to v3.7.

Now was the upgrade to v3.8 messing with that setting??? That would explain things...

Anyway, I have the option off still with v3.8 and everything goes well so far!

[Xposed Framework Modules] w0rinal:
Haven't tried it but I think it saves the former .apk file to internal storage so you can install it manually.

Let's say I install xinstaller 3.8 then version 3.7, which was installed before, is saved to internal storage so I can uninstall 3.8, open internal storage and install the 3.7 apk again. Otherwise 3.7 is overwritten and the .apk file is lost.

[Xposed Framework Modules] moneytoo:
[MENTION=5064841]pyler[/MENTION]

Seeing how powerful this module is (I was looking for a way to display package name and this was it...), don't you want to merge it with changes from Native Freezer? I guess it would be accessible under new option "Disabling 3rd party apps". Separate option for "Disabling without uninstall (system apps)" would also be nice.
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
I am working on other features at the moment (I want to finish them and release 3.9, this weekend maybe).

About your suggestion: I would rather keep it separated. If you look at XInstaller source code, you will understand - there are just simple patches. Your module is something more than "patch this to true"). I just think that it is good as is.

Thanks!
[Xposed Framework Modules] kl0x:
Hi,

I've been using this module for a while, it worked perfectly. Since last week I couldn't install any app from play store or an apk. I updated my rom (slimkat), and it still didn't work. I figured out it was xinstaller module. If I disable it everything works perfectly, if I enable it play store will crash and I won't be able to install an apk. I think it's because of the play store, so is there any possibility of adding an option to disable the module in play store installations?
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
Some option may causes that, but I dont know why. Try to write which options are ticked on your device. And try to share Xposed log & android log with crash report if possible.

Did you enable expert mode? If yes, did you checked "Install apps on external storage"? or any other options in Misc#Disable section?

Next options are DISABLED:

Installations:

installing on external storage

autolaunching after installing

From v3.8-3.9 doesn't work on CM11 !!

Hello,

Xinstaller has no effect on "package installer" at all since v3.8 until latest version 3.9, none of its features work. Also, I have a simple suggestion, why don't you create a tab for version info just next to "New / All" tabs instead of the toast notification. That's all, I wish at least get this version to work for all CyanogenMod roms
[Xposed Framework Modules] pyler:
It works on CM :)

You enabled option "Install apps on external storageL some time ago and XInstaller was installed on sd card. Xposed modules will never work from there.

How to fix it?

Backup XInstaller settings, remove module, reboot device, install module and restore settings.

New tab... If only it were so easy... toast is much much easier to do and I am ok with it. Better than nothing, no? :)
