Anyone else having problems with messenger logging out in Nougat? Just enabling the module in xposed seem to be making messenger log out randomly
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Happens to me on Stock Oreo 8.0 Moto Evert. App logs out and on opening force closes for a while but opens up later. There are some activities that can be excluded and toggled off for the app in maxlock per app settings but can't figure out which. Earlier Drive was denied access but I excluded some activities and it's all Ok now.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Amaranth`:
Guys 1 question. When i go to unlock a locked app with fingerprint. He drops me the keyboard too. How make the app not show me the keyboard when i want to unlock.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
Use another locking type that doesn't open the keyboard, e.g. knock code.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Eklondh:
Yeah I've been fiddling around but haven't gotten it to work. Too bad maxlock is so superior
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Here are few settings I toggled for Drive. Needs a fair amount of understanding about which ones are needed, unfortunately people like me don't know much. Maxlock is undoubtedly very superior and integrates finely with the android system. This is the first thing I always install on xposed. Many thanks to Maxr1998.

Edit: Maxlock is working fantastic with fb messenger lite version.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Eklondh:
Where do I find this screen? Wtf lol I can't find it
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Please go to maxlock settings, you'll find right there. Like
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Go to apps>apps to be locked>click on settings icon for each individual app
[Xposed Framework Modules] Eklondh:
Yeah i figured it out, I have no idea what im doing here but i tried excluding some activites

I'm running Lineage and all I really want to do is put a password on the gallery app, that works fine but whenver maxlock is activated messenger keeps crashing

Hmm, well well I will update this post if I have any succes :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jokert129:
Is there anything similar to this app that doesnt require xposed framework ? xposed hasnt been updates for very long and its giving me so many problems, ive uninstalled almost all of xposed modules because they are not being updated anymore.

Could this app be somehow ported to magisk, or is there any other alternative to this app that would work in a similar way ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] itandy:
Same here. Messenger shows error from time to time recently. Logcat shows it might be related to MaxLock.

[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
This app works fine even without xposed, but needs to be enabled in accessibility settings. Might consume a little bit more battery though.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jokert129:
I just disabled xposed framework ( systemless magisk module ), made maxlock admin and gave accessibility access and it doesnt work.

I also changed the implementation to no xposed in the maxlock main settings menu.

What im I missing ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Please try wiping cache,data of Maxlock, uninstall it. Then reinstall it again, give it permissions and see if it works. I have no idea if it would work as a no xposed module with xposed still running on the device. It worked fine without xposed installed on my device. Magisk systemless xposed isn't exactly systemless.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
Help Please!

I have hidden Maxlock from the launcher inside the app.Now I am not finding any way to launch it again. Tried play store/app inspector to open it. But it says cant start app. Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Answered multiple times on this thread

Go to Xposed module list, long press on Maxlock and launch
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
Thanks

But im not using xposed.is there any other way?
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Sorry I assumed Xposed

I didn't use it without Xposed so can't help

This module is reported to work with EDXposed on Pie. I tried it, it partially works. Any plans to make it compatible or will Pie upgrade happen only after Xposed (if) is upgraded?
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Deleted - duplicate post of above
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
[MENTION=5222551]Maxr1998[/MENTION]

In continuation with above post tried your app with EdXposed on stock Android Pie

Two major points

1. Settings doesn't get locked despite selection on apps to be locked

2. Thumbnail hiding in recents doesn't work (EdXposed doesn't support resource hooks, I don't know if that's the reason)

Request consider making this work with Pie in a secure manner ?

Here's a list of growing Xposed modules that are supported by EdXposed

https://xdaforums.com/xposed/list-xposed-modules-android-pie-ed-t3892768/page21
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
Thanks for the testing and report, however, this won't happen, as I scrapped the Xposed implementation anyway. Xposed was (and still is) a very cool and powerful system modification, but the caused instability and the fact that you loose SafetyNet make it not worth it for me anymore. Additionally, it always takes a long time to get updated for new Android versions, and I don't want to be tied to outdated ROMs.

In the future, MaxLock will use a custom root implementation, using process callbacks from ActivityManager via Chainfire's "new" librootjava. You can track my progress here: https://github.com/Maxr1998/MaxLock/tree/daemon

Take note that I'll still need some time to finish and polish everything, since I'm also in the process of rewriting the whole settings app. I'm working on this in my free time, and recently University has been taking its toll as well. Hopefully, I'll be able to release a beta version later this year, if everything goes according to plans..
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Thanks for your response and update

Hope it rolls out the earliest. Take care of studies

BTW EdXposed doesn't break safety net and according to one famous dev here much cleaner (don't want to name and start a war)
[Xposed Framework Modules] ctsuresh:
Maxlock keeps stopping in poco f1.

I'm Using Ed xposed 2.9.8.beta1. Pl help
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
If you read the two posts just prior you wouldn't be asking. In short don't expect it to work
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
As an update to those who want to try it on Pie with EdXposed - it works fine (except hidden thumbnails) on the latest version of EdXposed.

EdXposed itself is maturing and not released as stable so YMMV
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
Overview lock like MIUI, VIVO PHONES.

MaxLock should add overview lock feature like MIUI or vivo phones . Thanks
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
I think you should explain what that feature does so that it is clear to the developer what is that you are asking for.

I don't know what it means - dev may / not know
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:

Can I use this app with Xposed in havoc os 2.3 on redmi note 5 pro?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
This *kinda* exists already (with a white/black pane instead the the "encrypted" message), but might be broken on Xiaomi/MIUI phones, because they use a different recents implementation. Check the locking options → hide recents thumbnails (or similar).
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
Thanks but I'm not getting that option in my device . my bad?? I'm using LG G6 :confused:

For your kind consideration here is the screenshot of MaxLock locking option in my device : https://ibb.co/nCz158f

https://ibb.co/92ywRsP
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Hi

I know you said that you want to be not dependent on Xposed, but please give EdXposed which I linked earlier a try.

Everything works fine except the " hide thumbnails".

My thought is that if you can tweak your module with little efforts then Pie users can continue to use your lovely module fully till such time you develop an alternative. Just as FYI, the following modules have been tweaked for Pie and EdXposed - XPrivacyLua, Xposed Edge and Gravity Box (beta released yesterday)

It's your choice, but seeing that practically everything works, effort required may be minimal. Please consider this request
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
You're using the Xposed implementation? Which MaxLock version do you have installed? Make sure to install from Play Store to get the latest version.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
I'd really love to, if I wasn't so busy (full-time contributing to Niagara Launcher, other side-projects, University assignments until recently) and if it was as trivial as you're hoping.. the problem is, with Pie, a lot of phones switched over to the new quickstep recents (aka recents UI provided by the launcher application), which would require a rewrite of the recents handling, which then wouldn't even work on other OEM launchers like OxygenOS or Samsung OneUI. I might even go as far and drop support for that feature for Pie+ on a future version, as it just isn't worth the hassle unfortunately (and I don't have the test devices for most launchers anyway).

Priority for me when working on MaxLock again is finishing up the root implementation, polishing the settings rewrite, fix a lot of bugs, make the UI customizations more intuitive and straightforward (maybe even remove some options to streamline and polish the experience for everyone), support new device aspect ratios and resolutions better (e.g. 18:9), and more under-the-hood improvements for an easier-to-maintain application architecture/stack.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
Thank. I'm using no root/ xposed implementation . I could root my devie because it's bootloader can't be unlocked. And I'm using MaxLock latest version(7.0.4) installed from play store.
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. All the best
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
Sad news: I just discovered that Q will inflict further restrictions on background Activity starts, which means the no-Xposed/root implementation won't work anymore on the final build of Android Q. It seems the root implementation will work fine after some tweaks, but I have yet to figure out why the librootjavadaemon doesn't work on Q..
[Xposed Framework Modules] SWSAJID:
That is sad news. Many devices like (lg g600s) are not rootable. But it’s okay. we still love MaxLock ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
Thank Google for sc***ng us

I don't understand the technical part but it looks like Xposed implementation looks to be only option if root or non root don't work
[Xposed Framework Modules] rianven:
I am using Havoc OS with Redmi Note 5 too. I don't know why it's not working. I installed TaiChi magisk module for Xposed and activated Maxlock with it. It even says "Xposed installed & active, awesome!" inside the app. Can anyone help?

EDIT: In case someone asks, I am in Android Pie.
[Xposed Framework Modules] TheDarkKnight:
Try different apps. For me, sometimes some apps get locked sometimes they don't and others do. Also try EdXposed. I've heard it has better success (works for me, at least partially) and it is open source.

Also, can anyone help me out in my issue? When I first installed, some apps like WhatsApp and Photos were not locked, but then I reinstalled it and now those are getting locked but now Settings and Play store aren't. Anyone know how to fix this?
[Xposed Framework Modules] rianven:
Thanks for quoting, I actually solved my problem by just adding apps I wanted to lock to TaiChi app. Everything works great, I can lock any app I want as long as I add the app inside TaiChi. For your problem, I think try using other Xposed like mine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] noparamos:
Hi, I'm using your awesome app to block only some app's activities, some apps ("settings", for example) may have a large number of them. I don't want to set up maxlock manually again and again. How can I save and restore maxlock settings. Tried to copy app files from /data/data but with no luck.
[Xposed Framework Modules] noparamos:
Time issue

App works good at first: locks all selected apps including settings app. But J4 has removable battery and doesn't have battery for CMOS - so the system time after accidental reboot is different/changes. This causes some weird behavior of maxlock: the attempt to open settings app leads to maxlock lock activity window with countdown which begins from ~80000 seconds (after that time I can make next attempt to unlock settings app). But sometimes (after accidental reboot with battery removing) maxlock wouldn't lock settings app at all, but locks other apps at that time.

P.S.: Some activities of settings app are exluded from locking

I've already created an issue on github.

Thanks!

[Xposed Framework Modules] .:Addicted:.:
Why don't you lock settings, package manager, xposed manager, make maxlock device admin
[Xposed Framework Modules] craigviar:
Well now that is what I am asking. Those other app lockers can be tricked, hacked, uninstalled to get past them, etc. Yes, even with settings and package manger locked, device admin... but they don't have root or xposed, hence my question.
[Xposed Framework Modules] daddyc:
If you are on oreo try it with Xposed its almost unbreakable but with accessibility setting just force close maxlock and boom security gone:crying::crying::(

On latest version of play store fingerprint unlock option not works too

I am on pie...

Reported this to dev but no reply from that side.... Seems project is abandoned or on hold...
[Xposed Framework Modules] .:Addicted:.:
I'm on pie edxposed & its also working fine there. Even fingerprint.

Welp same device, but i didnt face any problem, install riru core, edxposed sandhook, and edxposed installer, you might wanna clean flash the rom again
[Xposed Framework Modules] Soumy1234:
Has anyone got this to work with Oreo on Edxposed? I heard that this works on pie, so that's why I'm asking. The problem I have (I think) is that Max Lock can't find Xposed. I've tried the 7.0.3 version of the app with Edxposed versions 0.4.1.2, 0.4.2.3 and 0.4.3.7. I've also exported the bug report from the app but I can't seem to find it. I'll upload it when I do.
[Xposed Framework Modules] daddyc:
That's working now but my mobile data is broken i guess after edxposed... Device isnot connecting on mobile data
[Xposed Framework Modules] FuLygon:
Try using original xposed on oreo, used to work for me back when im using lineage 15.1, if fingerprint not work try 7.0.3, well ur device wont pass safetynet if you use original xposed

Well that weird, im not having any problem network fine here, try install other pie rom or just clean flash ur current rom

I am using Lineage OS 16 (Pie 9.0) and this works perfectly, I was using this on Oreo before I upgraded to Pie and it worked fine on that too.

It is strange that it cannot see Xposed or Edxposed, I am using a Custom version of Edxposed but the official one was working fine for me also.

I see the most recent version of Edxposed change log (V0.4.4.4) has "Fix some hooks not working on Oreo" maybe this will solve your problem?
[Xposed Framework Modules] dbolivar:
The same thing happened on my phone: EdXposed (SandHook, since YAHFA bootloops) + stock Oreo 8.0 firmware (LG G7). Same error message. I didn't want to test the original Xposed, because I wanted SafetyNet to pass.

However, I didn't try the latest EdXposed alpha; there were some commits that AFAIK could be related. Have you tried it? v0.4.4.4_alpha.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Soumy1234:
Yes, and I still got the same result: max lock couldn't detect Edxposed
[Xposed Framework Modules] daddyc:
Its removed from play store why?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Nergal di Cuthah:
No it's not, I just today got an update for it from play store
[Xposed Framework Modules] dyingbread:

[Xposed Framework Modules] YetAnotherAndroidFan:
I am using Juxstins Exposed V0.4.5.1 and it is working perfectly fine with the latest release of MaxLock for me on Lineage 16
[Xposed Framework Modules] wolfsister:
Locking straight up doesn't work for me. Using OnePlus 7 pro with OOS, magisk, edxposed, renovate ICE, and xxx no limit.

Maxlock recognises my xposed and the maxlock app itself requires fingerprint scanning to open. But any other app I chose to lock simply does not lock and opens normally. I rebooted my phone twice.

Any fix? Or am I doing something stupid.
[Xposed Framework Modules] YetAnotherAndroidFan:
I have issues with it not locking some specific apps but that is odd.

Have you tried uninstalling / wiping all of the Maxlock data and trying again?

Does it just require fingerprint scanning or does it give another unlock option?

What version of Magisk, Edxposed and Android are you using?
[Xposed Framework Modules] wolfsister:
FIXED. I did a reflash of xposed after uninstalling.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maxr1998:
It actually was for a short time, Google removed it because of the PayPal link inside the app (which was mostly there for people who don't have access to Google Play, but well), so I quickly pushed an update removing that and at the same time merged in the fingerprint fix from my master repo. The rest is pretty much the same as 7.0.4.
[Xposed Framework Modules] daddyc:
Fingerprint is quite annoying issue... Let me latest build ... Hope it will work
[Xposed Framework Modules] YetAnotherAndroidFan:
I am still getting an issue occasionally where the finger print unlocking does not seem to work but it is not much of an issue for me and doesn't happen too often.

I am using 7.0.5 on edxposed

hi

this module is the one i miss the more since i changed phone.

i had sony z5c with xposed and no magisk, now im using xiaomi mi a2 lite, stock Pie rom, magisk, thaichi.

i found it in taichi modules, installed, it correctly ask for fingerprint when i open maxlock itself but i cant manage to get asked for fingerprint when i open the apps i selected.

does anyone have a solution or a clue of why?

thanks in advance to helpers

Hi [MENTION=5222551]Maxr1998[/MENTION] I've been using the module on pie lately. I don't know if it's been optimised for pie, but still using it with accessibility on. It does the job wonderfully, but on minimising locked apps, the thumbnails are not getting masked in pie recents. If I'm not wrong, this can be achieved thru root. My request is to provide a root option in pie. Thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] beeshyams:
This has been asked before (by me) and answered by developer. To summarize -

A) Not possible with root or even with EdXposed since Pie treats recent apps differently.

B) Developer is not working on root /EdXposed combo. He is planning different approach altogether
[Xposed Framework Modules] JaggedPill:
Great. Xposed breaks other sensitive apps. Thanks@Maxr1998 for adopting non xposed approach.
