Alright, now I understand. Sorry I misunderstood you. I also like topic related chat and think it's helpful and gives a deeper insight or experience on the topic.

I see. Seeing well known devlopers, kangers and their fellowship posting their concerns here did not deliver the message that Xposed could potentially increase their workload on bugfixing or dealing with Xposed+module related reports, on first sight. Giving it even a bit more thought, with the help of your answer though, clears the misbelief.

It's true that with Xposed the bug report frequency is higher, yet it's always the same, never-reading-OP-and-asking-a-question-anwered-one-post-above-Guy who is, in most cases, the same guy you're describing with your second sentence in the quote prior. I've learned to ignore him because I don't think that helping someone who's inability to search or even read the so crucial OP is cured by handing him the answer "on a silver plate". Answering this guy in any form is the worst one could do to him.

The reactions of the developers may not be caused by a fear that Xposed could potentially render a custom ROM redundant but rather by increased workload and clutter in their threads.

But I'm not convinced that there is no actual concern of developers possibly losing their userbase. I belive Xposed has the power to replace a custom ROM entirely.

I think of it this way;

You may know Temasek's spare parts. It's an item in the settings menue in Temasek's CyanogenOS builds, giving the user a vast selection of system(ui) modifications like centering the clock, changing the battery icon, coloring entire statusbar items, modifying system animations and even device specific things like color temperature and mode for (AM)OLED displays.

Now I could just use a CyanogenOS from Temasek, OR, I could go with the stock ROM and use Xposed with modules that also give aforementioned modification options.

Feel free to correct me.
[Xposed General] wrongway213:
No worries on the misunderstanding - the internet using text to convey speech renders certain things like vocal tone and inflection entirely dead and causes things to get confusing. No harm, no foul. I agree with you that answering these people is bad practice. I do believe that many ROM developers simply wish to keep these people from posting in their threads about issues caused by Xposed. However, I do agree there are some developers who are worried about losing users - I've even heard bitterness expressed that smali modding is no longer necessary and much hard work was done for nothing. I believe these developers who discourage Xposed for this reason are in the minority, though. I've spoken to a few developers who are very much "no support for Xposed" in their OPs and threads who have openly admitted that using a few modules that don't have the ability to alter UI should not cause issues on custom ROMs. No one will express this publicly for obvious reasons (someone will say Gravitybox is a light module - you get the idea) but it's definitely something some developers know. Others truly believe Xposed to be all bad. But yes, I agree with you that there are some who are threatened, and others who are even offended by it - I just think they make up a lot less of the collective ROM cooking community than you seem to think is all.

Hello. I was wondering if anyone here knowledgeable enough could help me figure out what is going on with this Xposed Install on my SW3 (Yeah I know watches are probably not officially supported but supposedly it should work).

After installing, watch keeps displaying low storage warnings despite plenty of space available. I dug a bit deeper and I found that this warnings can also display when art cache files are missing and according to boot logs (included), a lot of files are missing plus framework throws a lot of errors while trying to recreate those files. Most errors seems to be similar to this:

I/art ( 444): DexFile_isDexOptNeeded failed to open oat file '/data/dalvik-cache/arm/system@framework@services.jar@classes.dex' for file location '/system/framework/services.jar': Failed to open oat filename for reading: No such file or directory
I/art ( 444): DexFile_isDexOptNeeded file /system/framework/arm/services.odex needs to be recompiled with Xposed for /system/framework/services.jar
I/InstallerConnection( 444): connecting...
I/installd( 154): new connection
E/cutils-trace( 459): Error opening trace file: No such file or directory (2)
I/dex2oat ( 459): /system/bin/dex2oat --zip-fd=6 --zip-location=/system/framework/services.jar --oat-fd=7 --oat-location=/data/dalvik-cache/arm/system@framework@services.jar@classes.dex --instruction-set=arm --instruction-set-features=div --runtime-arg -Xms64m --runtime-arg -Xmx512m
W/dex2oat ( 459): Could not create image space with image file '/system/framework/boot.art'. Attempting to fall back to imageless running. Error was: Only the zygote can create the global boot image.

I also found this line:

E/dex2oat ( 244): Failed to create oat file: /data/dalvik-cache/arm/system@framework@boot.oat: Read-only file system

I understand /system is read-only but why would Xposed cause /data to go read-only?

If I restore back pre-xposed system, errors disappear, but they reappear when I flash xposed zip again.

So any ideas?

Your ROM appears to be Samsung based with a stock TW kernel. I would have to assume that after reading a bit of the op & this thread that there lies your problem.
[Xposed General] Kneidel:
Thank you for getting back to me.

The ROM I am using is a tweaked Google Play Edition for Samsung i9505. It offers a choice of kernels. I am using the GoogyMax kernel.

Is xposed not compatible with this set-up, will it eventually be, and what lollipop set-up it currently support?

I apologise if this had already been explained at length, I am not at all knowledgeable in this area and get confused easily.

[Xposed General] tzzeri:
It doesn't work with tw. Gpe isn't tw, but it could be that the thing that's preventing tw from working is also in gpe, because gpe is also from Samsung, but just fitting the standards of gpe.

[Xposed General] igloohed73:
Have you considered the modules as the culprit & tested accordingly?
[Xposed General] StuartTheFish:
I'm using the echoe v6 GPE lollipop rom on my s4, and xposed works fine. There isn't anything to do with touchwiz in the GPE version, so it IS compatible. I guess you've done something wrong.
[Xposed General] danarama:
Although GPE Doesn't have the Touchwiz UI, it does still have touchwiz frameworks in teh ROM. It's not the same as AOSP so you're probably correct that it has the same things incorporated.
[Xposed General] Chahk:
I have the actual GS4 GPe running rooted stock 5.0, and Xposed is running fine on it. Whatever bits of TW frameworks were left in it are not interfering with Xposed at all.

[Xposed General] Kneidel:
Would you be able to help me narrow down what it is I am doing wrong?

I have flashed zip (several times) and installed apk.

I have enabled modules and rebooted several times.

I have set selinux to permissive.

Within the app, I still see message: "Installation is only possible manually via recovery for now."

Soft reboot works but hard reboot gets the following error message:

CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE: cannot locate symbol "__set_errrno referenced by "/data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/cache/busybox-xposed" ...

Reboot failed.
[Xposed General] kdoul:
I fail to see how shouting at somebody is helping.

Maybe an answer like:

"Please see the first post, there is a link posted with more instructions."

or the link itself could be better.

Being polite is not spoon feeding...
[Xposed General] StuartTheFish:
The app doesn't reboot for me either, though soft reboot still works. Provided you've flashed the most recent version in recovery and got the most recent app installed, then you should be able to just turn on or reboot normally and the framework be active.

It should look like this if you're on the newest versions:

What modules are you trying to use? There's plenty of modules that aren't even compatible with lollipop yet.

I'm using GravityBox [LP] and youtube adaway with no issue.

[Xposed General] TJKV:
Absolutely no offence, but I suggest you get familiarised with the Forum and it's rules, written and unwritten, before venturing to more (potentially) dangerous alpha stage mods like xposed for lollipop.

Nothing wrong in being a newbie but they are (ideally) expected to do time consuming tasks like reading a LOT and searching around if they have any doubts first before posting. Personally I've read each and every post here (and every other thread I follow or am interested in) just on the off chance I may stumble on an important tip, despite being quite knowledgeable on Android matters.

Ideally you should know each and every problem listed by the developer or reported by users, all the possible solutions to these problems listed by dev/reported by users, have all the tools and software necessary to use those solutions, and most importantly, a backup of any data you may want (nandroid, titanium backup etc) on your pc. All of this BEFORE you attempt to use any mod like xposed.
[Xposed General] Kneidel:
I see the same ...do you see the same error message when hard rebooting?

Modules that aren't working are:

Greenify, VPN dialogue disable
[Xposed General] StuartTheFish:
I do, yeah. Can't say I know about the VPN module you're trying, but I know greenify is one of those that isn't working on lollipop. Try gravitybox and see if that works. If it does, then the framework is working and it's your modules that aren't. :)
[Xposed General] force70:
No offense to anyone but if people cant understand a simple statement about posts then they should not be flashing anything let alone an alpha build.

Causes far more issues than it should by flashing and not understanding even the simple thing's.

Theres still lots of things on here which are beyond my level of understanding so i simply refrain from flashing until i do understand it.

Is there some uninstall tool for stock samsung roms? cant seem to find it...
[Xposed General] zelendel:
Its called the nandroid you made before you flashed it.
[Xposed General] danarama:
I think that XDA should implement an alpha / beta programme where you need to be "approved" to see alpha / beta threads. Unfortunately the overhead would be massive. Maybe the dev could set a few questions that need to be answered to get access.

Question 1 - when do you take a nandroid backup?

A) before testing alpha software

B) after testing alpha software

C) never.

I can't wait xposed to support the TW based ROMs. Does someone has advices on what AOSP rom (it should runs xposed right ?) i could flash for my S4 GT-i9505 ? :)
[Xposed General] Smash2Bash:
Reflash whatever ROM you were using. There shouldn't be a rooted stock version of whatever ROM your using somewhere.
[Xposed General] shaajrocks:
Hi, I know this is probably a stupid question, but let me ask anyway to avoid confusion and do something that will make me regret later..,

So it's like I install a module from downloads, check it from within the module and then do I "soft reboot" or "reboot" from the framework ?

I've set SELinux mode to permissive !
[Xposed General] mielletseed:
You want to uninstall your samsung stock rom? Just flash a custom rom and don't forget to wipe almost everything.
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
With Xposed in general, you download, install, 'check' the module, then soft reboot. What you said is absolutely correct, yes. You have no sig, but since you are already using the framework, I'll have to assume you don't have a touchwiz based ROM, nor are you on 5.1:confused:
[Xposed General] term44:
no lol, i got caught in bootloop and i want to uninstall xposed.zip that i flashed. so i wonder if anyone has made uninstall_xposed.zip or something :)
[Xposed General] shaajrocks:
Thanks for your reply [MENTION=1360535]ldeveraux[/MENTION], nope I'm not on either TouchWiz or 5.1 ! I'm rocking a LG G3, stock lollipop 5.0 !

so what happens if I click on the "reboot", will the module not work or will I get into a boot loop, soft brick, or actually completely brick my device .. ?

why I'm asking is because in kitkat for some modules you had to do a complete reboot rather than a soft reboot for the changes to take place right, just being curious :cyclops: ?
[Xposed General] z3pp3lin:
Actually the first reply informed you to read post 1, not to search, and the same guy asked you to read post 1 a second time. If you would have read post 1, you'd see that the dev said to use the read-only thread for download links and official updates. But you're unfortunately lazy, like to many on xda to read and/or search before posting a question as stated in the rules. Never mind that you were already in the read-only thread and you chose not to read anything past the download links.

And searching would have also taken less than a minute.
[Xposed General] ldeveraux:
I have no clue what happens with "reboot", but for Xposed to work on 5.0, you have to soft reboot every time.

And search this thread for your phone, there may be an additional couple steps necessary for the G3. I don't have it, so I glance over other phone specific requirements...
[Xposed General] StuartTheFish:
As has been said, restore your nandroid or reflash your rom.

If you're on the most recent version, you no longer need to soft reboot.

No you assume incorrectly! GPE is not tw based! You know what happens when you assume! Don't guess if you don't know.

You must be doing something wrong in loading and flashing Xposed. Xposed works perfectly with the S4 Lp GPE rom vs 5.0.0 and. 5.0.1. I have been using it personally for nearly a month dice its launch.

Use [MENTION=4830253]Danvdh[/MENTION] LP 5.0.1 or [MENTION=369612]Friedrich[/MENTION] Echoe v. 6.01 LP 5.0.0. Both work great!
