[Xposed Framework Modules] Philtastic:
I can't seem to get the new hooks in 1.33 of Xinsta. After updating to Instagram 7.10 from 7.9.2, I tried updating the hooks, but it said I already have the latest hooks. Back in Instagram 7.10, the download option is missing. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Xinsta a couple times, but that didn't help, so I went back to Instagram 7.9.2, and downloading works again. I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S5 running KitKat.
[Xposed Framework Modules] kamikaze702k:
Same issue as [MENTION=5897161]Philtastic[/MENTION] but not gone back down to lower instagram version yet. Please update hooks
[Xposed Framework Modules] exodius48:
[MENTION=5712278]iHelp101[/MENTION] Please update hooks as per 7.10 IG update. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] christianpeso:
Normally, once one or two people state that the hooks don't work, there is no need for anyone else to chime in and say the same thing unless you have something else to contribute.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I can't download pics from instagram anymore. The download button disappeared. I tried to turn the module off, reboot, turn it on, reboot. But nothing. Somebody help?
[Xposed Framework Modules] kamikaze702k:
Hooks don't work with 7.10, tried several times rebooted also but no luck, downgraded to 7.9.2 and it works.

Dev please update the app/hooks for latest instagram.

Thanks

I apologize, I moved Monday and finally got everything setup again. I am looking into the hooks currently.
[Xposed Framework Modules] suicidal acorn:
No need to apologize, you obviously had more important things going on. Forget the people that complain the second it stops working. Most of the users here just appreciate what you've done and don't expect an update the hour a new version of IG drops. Thank you for your work here! :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
The hooks have been updated for Instagram 7.10.0 (17047892). Enjoy!
[Xposed Framework Modules] r25txe:
Did you know that the version after 7.10.0 will have a certain amount of downtime if significant changes to the hooks are made?

The dev should never sleep when there's pix to pilfer. People have creeping to do and dev is infringing on their fapping-material-mountain-accumulation.

This module doesn't seems to be working again on instagram v7.11.0
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I have contacted that individual multiple times, but sadly they have not provided the needed logcat. I would assume the issue is related to the x86 architecture (Intel CPU) Zenfone's use. If you can provide a logcat I can try to locate what is causing the issue. Thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
The hooks have been update for Instagram 7.11.0. Enjoy!

Fun Fact: Instagram broke almost every hook with this update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SeriousX:
Why i dont get updates from xposed module? Only manualy from xda?

Repo got version 1.3.3 wich works only upto instagram v7.6.0. Where is the update for last instagram?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mondohow:
v1.3.3 is the latest module and works on Instagram 7.11.0. The module only needs to be updated if the dev wants to add functionality or fix a bug.

The HOOKS that need to be updated when Instagram is updated are remotely fetched by the module. The hooks and the module are two different things.
[Xposed Framework Modules] SeriousX:
I only need to delete and reinstall the module from repo?
[Xposed Framework Modules] mondohow:
No. Whenever there's an Instagram update and iHelp101 updates the hooks all you need to do is launch the XInsta app and Update Hooks from GitHub or Pastebin.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I didn't do it and it works from alone ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] mondohow:
:good: Yes it should automatically pull the hooks. Sometimes it doesn't and now he knows how to do it manually just in case. All bases covered.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rappala:
Hey, doesn't work for Asus Zenfone 2 (last week was working fine). I think it has to do something with the chipset architecture
[Xposed Framework Modules] Monstruonauta:

How to provide a logcat when my device bootloop? Xinsta Module was activated then I reboot = bootloop

My device cant be unlocked bootloader = no TWRP, if UBL = camera not found (camera issue, happen on some devices of Zenfone 5)

So, if my device bootloop, i need to flash via adb sideload manually :)

Thank you.
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
It would be like how you would use an adb command to sideload. When booting the device you would connect it to your computer and use "adb logcat -v > XInsta.txt". That should allow me to see why Zenfone's are having issues with XInsta. You can upload the XInsta.txt file to XDA or send it to me privately (Via PM).

Hello
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
Do you need help using this module?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Monstruonauta:
It is not working with Zenfone 2. :(
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I apologize about this. I have been trying to get a logcat from a Zenfone for a while. The Zenfone series (Recent devices) use an x86 (Intel) processor, which is not standard in terms of Android. Because of this I don't know if the Xposed works differently on these devices. Are you experiencing a bootloop when attempting to use this module?
[Xposed Framework Modules] ink718:
Possible to have a option to select where instagram will load the download folder that you select. This would be a nice option to post what we dowload. Thanks for this kickass module ☺?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rappala:
No, at least with Zenfone2, but recently Asus upgraded our zenny and because of this installing xposed gives bootloop.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Monstruonauta:
No, everything works okay. Just sometimes the booting take little bit longer. How I can help you?
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
Do you know how to obtain a logcat? If so, I need a logcat when the device boots. You would use "adb logcat -v > XInsta.txt". This must be done from your computer (Since device will be booting). With a logcat I will be able to see what processes are running during the devices start-up (Including Xposed). Based on this I can see why the module tends to hang. I would just need the created XInsta.txt file (PM it to me).
[Xposed Framework Modules] g2uzer:
I know exposed for 6.0 was just released, I'm here just giving a heads up to my peeps that this module causes a boot loop ;)
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I see that Xposed for Marshmallow is now released. I will be switching one of my test devices to CM13 (Unofficial) to see if any changes to the module need made.

Edit: And I see g2uzer found the module causes a bootloop on Marshmallow. I will be looking into it soon.

Edit2: I found the issue (Related to getting storage location to save files).

Edit3: I am having trouble resolving this storage issue (Method getExternalStorageDirectory() is giving an incorrect storage path, which the module needs). I am trying to confirm if this is a Cyanogenmod issue or more widespread.

Edit4: The issue is happening on a Nexus 5 (Stock Marshmallow) as well, looking into another possible solution. This causes the hooks file and save locations to not be able to save correctly. Marshmallow appears to report /storage/emulated/ as the default external storage directory, but doesn't allow access to it (Appears empty).

Edit5: This might be a permission issue. Looking into it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] g2uzer:
Not rushing you in any way. Honestly im just giving a heads up. thanks for the Hard work!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
Well, I found a major issue with XInsta for Marshmallow. As many people may know Marshmallow introduces run-time permissions. Google labels certain permissions (Storage access for example) as dangerous. This means the user must grant the application permission to access (Read and write) storage. At the moment XInsta can't request these permissions because we are not an activity (We are in the background via Xposed).

XInsta uses storage access to read the hooks file and of course save images/video from Instagram. Without this permission XInsta can't do anything. I will do my best to get everything up and running again, but it could be a few days.

Edit: We got most features working. I still have to ensure compatibility with other versions of Android and I have a few bug fixes. It is possible I will release the update tonight. Fingers crossed.

[Xposed Framework Modules] g2uzer:
v78 is out. Perhaps it might be easier? I haven't installed it
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I thought it would be nice to give another update on the progress of the module. Everything is working besides reading the hooks and save location files. Marshmallows run-time permissions are very tricky in terms of Xposed. I am trying to find a way to possibly fetch these needed files.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MaaarZ:
It seems like we are in the exact same situation as we are both trying to solve the read/write permission problem. Since I don't have any Marshmallow compatible device to test changes, could you please share your solution once you succeed? I would really appreciate it, thanks in advance!
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I still can't figure anything out about reading, but I have a solution for writing. Keep in mind that this is a 3 AM solution, so it isn't the prettiest. So the only writing XInsta does is when saving image/videos. I just call a broadcast receiver (Use hooked context) and pass the Instagram image/video URL with it. The broadcast receiver then handles downloading the image/video and saving it.

For reading I think XSharedPreferences might have to become a possible solution for me. XSharedPreference is the past caused bootloop issues for me, so I am trying my best to get reading working.
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
We have everything working (Technically)! One thing I would like inform users of is this requires you to grant a permission to Instagram (Since we hook into Instagram, we can act like we are Instagram). I linked a video below that shows the difference of not granting that permission. If the permission is not granted, first the hooks file is not found. This means we simply fetch the hook file every time Instagram opens (Bandwidth issue for some). The second issue is your save location files are not found, so we default to "/Downloads/Instagram/" for saving image/videos.

If we do grant the permission everything works like normal. The hooks file is fetched from local storage (Only updated when Instagram makes a change) and your save locations are fetched properly. Because of this additional step I want to make sure the users of this module are okay with this. It is a simple one-time granted permission, but I want to make sure everyone is okay with having to do this. I linked a Strawpoll below to tally up the users opinion on the matter. Thank you.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Rappala:
Wow you're awesome! Of course I don't care granting this permission
[Xposed Framework Modules] g2uzer:
Thanks a lot! One last thing, will this work with the latest version of Instagram?
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
Yes, this will work with the latest Instagram. I have a few more bugs to squash and the update should be on the Xposed Repo.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ink718:
[MENTION=5712278]iHelp101[/MENTION] Possible to have a option to select where instagram will load up the download folder you have selected when you click on the camera icon to post. This would be a nice option to post what we download. Thanks for this kickass module ☺?
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I will look into the possibility. At the moment my attention is at getting the module released with Marshmallow support. The next update is unlikely to have your request (Unless it is a extremely easy thing to hook).
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
XInsta 1.3.4 is now out! This adds Marshmallow support, which like previously stated requires the Storage permission to be activated for Instagram (Settings -> Apps -> Instagram -> Permissions). If you are not comfortable with this permission you are free to not allow it. If not allowed sadly Marshmallows run-time permissions prevents XInsta from obtaining settings files (Hooks, save locations, and notification hide).

The module will still function without this permission, but the save location will default to Downloads/Instagram because the lack of being able to read the save location file. Hooks will be obtained every time you open Instagram as well (Bandwidth issue for some). Since I have only been able to test this with one device (Moto G) on Marshmallow I published this as a beta. I am hoping no critical bugs exist, but it is always possible my device didn't trigger a bug you experience. If you have any issues please report them and I will do my best to address them. Enjoy the module!

Edit: Instagram 7.11.0 (17639608) was released and directshare should now be working on it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] MaaarZ:
Thanks for your previous answer, I guess you could solve reading too, was it done through requesting run-time permission? Could you please commit your changes to Github?
[Xposed Framework Modules] g2uzer:
Working Good on My Nexus 6 running PureNexus! Thanks mang!
[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I just code synced everything. The issue I had with reading was it is how I get my hooks, so I couldn't hook anything and then later get the permission. Luckily Instagram request the Storage permission, which users can agree to. Since we hook as Instagram we can of course pretend to be Instagram and use Instagram's Storage permission to get our needed file. I have no idea if Snapchat request the Storage permission as well.

A side note is this only worked for reading for me. If I tried to use Instagram's permission to write it would deny for me. I am not sure the reason why. So to write I still just use a broadcast receiver.

[Xposed Framework Modules] iHelp101:
I see people are experiencing issues with images not showing in the Gallery immediately. The module does a media scan of the image saved, but the issue is related to Android. The method MediaScannerConnection was sort of deprecated by Google. They found that this method was being abused and causing issue. An app could literally just keep telling the system to scan for files and of course this causes battery drain and etc. I will look into a solution (4.4.4 is when this method was killed). I apologize for this inconvenience and I will do my best to find a possible solution. I will see if I can call the method as a system app (Hooked into) that may not have this method restricted.
