[Xposed General] MrGoodtunes:
Rovo developes Xposed for other reason, not beer, not money. Let us hope he still has reason strong enough to open up ART so Xposed modules will work on Lollipop.

Point of clarification: "Android L" is an early version of Lollipop. Since then, we have seen Android 5.0, Android 5.0.1, and the latest is Android 5.0.2, which is the only Lollipop I have tried. After trying it for about 2 days, I went back because I felt need for my Xposed modules. But, after only a few hours off Lollipop, I went back to it! And then, began finding work arounds for missing features. ART is so smooth and responsive, and Lollipop has a great new recent apps switcher 'Rolodex' that is wonderfully fluid, useful, and fun. I love these and other things Lollipop brings. Found ways to deal with all desired features. Even Xprivacy issues have work arounds, thanks to App Ops in CM-12. None the less, while using and enjoying Lollipop, I am keeping up hope that Rovo brings Xposed to ART.
[Xposed General] PocketFan2015:
:(using CM12 without xposed
[Xposed General] SafiXS:
Please, that is exactly the reason why the dev have no motivation to spend energy in this project any more.

No question, exposed is a revolutionary mod for android geeks like us.

Don't put pressure on the dev!

Thanks for attention
[Xposed General] C3C076:
Still on KitKat. Mainly because it allows me to continue maintaining and supporting my xposed modules.

Would be too uncomfortable to switch ROMs everytime I need to test stuff.
[Xposed General] adrscu:
I decided to pull the plug on kitkat and upgrade my exynos S5. I'm definitely missing the xposed experience on my phone. Starting from the full use of greenify ( especially wake-up tracker and cutoff) to all the small tweaks and quirks we're doing to our UI, and the whole OS.

It made me not take for granted the huge amount of work put into the framework itself, and the work put in by the devs of all the modules that we use daily. Huge thanks to all the developers out there and I hope one day we will have a working version of the xposed framework for the new Android iteration.

I'm on my way to make a donation to the xposed framework Dev and I encourage others to do so too.
[Xposed General] gorman42:
Plan on staying with KitKat unless I decide to switch to Cyanogen. Being on a Note 3 I kinda have mixed feelings missing some S-Pen functionality.
[Xposed General] AndroidSlave:
I had to make the jump, at least temporarily. . Definitely missing some things, but nothing I can't live without.
[Xposed General] Justin Thought:
I've upgraded to Lollipop several times now, but have reverted to KitKat each time. Not specifically because of the XPosed incompatibility, although that affected my decision. Mostly because the ROM I'm using now on my i9300 has so much extra functionality. Secondarily, Lollipop simply isn't giving me the battery life I've been getting on the KitKat I'm using--and that's something I find very important in a ROM.

That being said, again today I've tried a newer version of what's billed as one of the better Lollipop ROMs for my set; we'll see if I stay with it.

I only have one XPosed module that I use, and it's visual, so...although I miss it, I can live without it.
[Xposed General] blade86sam:
Yep still on kitkit cm11, mostly because of xposed and XMG compatibility not present on cm12. stupid ART! :P

i would like to hit over to android 5, for the fact that call sound actually works with latest Google Play Services... but its a minor setback sticking with kitkat... not like i get called enough that it bothers me much, #foreveralone :crying:

still sucks that i cant use most gapps cause of this =/ (i restored factory version, which doesn't self update)

ah well will have to wait a few months to see the progress of xposed and xmg ART runtime compatibility
[Xposed General] MattBooth:
What about the hard work of developers who've been toiling away hard on the Lollipop ROMs bringing you various mods without xposed?
[Xposed General] adrscu:
I'm modifying my own system files for lollipop. As an IT engineer I know my way around how Linux/Unix systems work, and have a bit of programming language background.

I was solely referring that we should support what we are using (as I used xposed and decided to support it into further development), but I'm not using any other "mods" from other developers.

Unlike the vast majority of Android users, I buy all my software.

But I believe that the users should support the work of their devs, or if you're developing something, I hope your users will support whatever it is you're working on (I've seen you have clearly taken offense)
[Xposed General] MattBooth:
No offense taken :)
[Xposed General] HeyWee S.A.R.:
my opinion

I actually just installed cm12 on my grand 2 7102 but as I voted I can stick with the Lollipop Until xposed is available to it cuz to be honost it's really cool!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Supperpt:
Hey everyone.

So, this started happening to my Nexus (stock, unrooted, locked) after the 5.0.1 OTA update: youtube.com/watch?v=BolnMQx3LGs

It started in the first days of January, after receiving the 5.0.1. update. The phone randomly restarts and gets in a boot loop. For the last month it happened once or twice every week, often making the phone useless for several hours. I posted on the Nexus help forums, noticed a lot of people with the same problem as me, but no solutions.

Today I had enough and sideloaded Kitkat again. So far so good, but I don't want to celebrate just yet.

Has this happened to anyone here. Is there a reason for this to be happening or a solution?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thionylx:
I wish I had the answer. My wifes' stock rooted N5 did this 2 weeks ago and I could not keep it booted into recovery long enough to flash any images. I bought myself an N6 then I wiped my CM11 N5 and loaded stock 5.0.1. for her and put in her sim. She was fine for the last two weeks. Now today she says it is doing it to this phone. The first phones' issue looked exactly like your youtube video. Not your standard bootloop. Wiping cache and dalvik did not fix. A couple other threads mention they suspect kernel. Assuming I can get it to stay on the bootloader I will probably flash elementalX and see if that solves it.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kamycrs:
So I've seen some VR 3D glasses that are made for smart phones by 3rd party companies, for example: Colorcross 3D,Ritech3D,etc...!!! is there any disadvantages compare to Gear VR? or its just the same without the Samsung logo on it?

Also, will the Gear VR apps also work with those 3rd party made glasses? Have you had experience using them before?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tazbo28:
Ive been using Google Cardboard. Works just the same. I found that flying around in Google Earth gave me that real sense of immersion. Almost too well! Even on the cardboard. I think the flashier products just have a bit better polish to them, but in the end they all do the same thing. Its just some cost literally nothing (cardboard) and others 200+ bucks. idk.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kamycrs:
How about the Gear VR apps ? can you run those with the 3rd party glasses as well?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tazbo28:
Gear VR is just a set of goggles. The apps run on your phone., so if your using your phone with Cardboard, then you can use the apps with it as well. Google cardboard has an integrated button to activate things on menus like the Gear VR touchpad. So basically you can think of Cardboard as a cheap version of the Gear VR goggles. To my knowledge there is no added functionality on the Gear VR that makes it "special". Maybe it has a little better optics.

To be honest, once you mess with google cardboard for like 30 min, youll begin to get tired of the limited apps that are available for these things. Its nothing like using an Oculus Rift with a PC.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] kamycrs:
Thats exactly what i was thinking!!.... the main purpose of it as right now is probably watching movies(which i dont really watch movies anyway).... and i dont think Note 4 is powerful enough to have Games with outstanding graphics, which makes it not that great for my personal use....

so i think purchasing an oculus rift in the future would be a better investment!!..... which i believe it still needs a lot of work!!...maybe 2-3 yrs from now?i dunno....
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] tazbo28:
Totally. Oculus Rift would be a much better investment. After having read this thread I went around looking at the vast number of "Hackulus Rift" or "Oculus Thrift" ideas out on youtube. All told, you can get something similar to the Oculus Rift with some custom software and a Note 4. But in the end both latency and complexity will make it not worth it. Besides, like you said, the amount of games available right now that allow for the Oculus Rift are few, and if your using a home-built system, it may just sour your impressions of VR altogether. Consumer version of the Rift is going to be released in time for the holiday season, and I think that there will be many awesome games ready by then along with some better accessories for full body capture. Kickstarter has so many awesome projects happening right now that allow the use of your entire body in-game including fingers! So in short, save your money because come this Xmas, youll prob want to drop a cool $1-2k on vr gaming stuffs.

I have the m919 unlocked and using my at&t sim card in it. But I'm not able to send or receive MMS. I've checked all the settings in APN and everything is like it should be, but with no luck. I've also noticed that compared to my sisters at&t version s4, my phone has considerably a lot worse network connection. I'm also on AICP ROM but was wondering if there is any work around for this. I'd really like to have a fully functioning phone. By the way I've googled this and couldn't find anything to help me.

[General Questions and Answers] bizarrejelly5:
I checked the amount of data I was using today and it was using crazy amounts. I have auto-sync disabled and restricted background data on for Google Services, although I think that only affects mobile data. This has been going on for over a week unnoticed.

So I saw that and restarted my phone hoping it will fix it but it didn't, So I checked my battery to see what app is using the most battery and it was Mediaserver which was using 43% (although I didn't have a battery problem until yesterday).

Here's screenshots: imgur.com/iz9HtZw, imgur.com/fzzreZo

(Sorry the forum won't let me post outside links so imgur will have to be copied and pasted)

Anyone else ever seen this before? I'm thinking of just reformatting the phone if there are no solutions but would rather not.

In my case, Its usually playstore that consumes the most insane data over wifi (auto updates). also location (GPS) services. you'll need to check those out.

As for your battery, consider using greenify to put a leash on rogue apps and processes.

Ok guys since I did not see anywhere on the net how to root the device here is a quick guide please move the thread wherever you feel more appropriate:

1) you will need to install the driver for the LG flex on your computer

2) unlock developer mode go to setting - go to about phone - go to software info - tap 7 times on build number this will activate developer mode

3) go to setting you will have a new option called developer options go inside check USB debugging

4) go to lgviet dot com and search for lgl23 I cannot post the link since the site is blocking me click on the first result download the software from android host move the folder in the zip to your desktop

5) connect your phone with the usb with your computer

6) run runroot follow instruction for the rooting

7) if you see that the software is stucked its probably because you have a warning message from google SAY NO and that is it the software will finish instantly and your device is rooted.

I rooted 2 devices both of them were 4.2.2 japanese editions bought on ebay.
