Yes, you're supposed to install the .apk again. The reason why I asked everybody to begin with uninstall is to make sure everyone has a clean slate; but yes, this has the unfortunate side effect of removing the Xposed Installer app :)

Unfortunately, I had to make the uninstall step mandatory, as apparently everybody was on a different version of sonyfix / leak_workaround / leakplug, so it was impossible for me to provide any support to a person without confusing the living daylights out of everybody else. So I got everyone on to the same level :)

I'll edit post #123 to make the fact that you need to reinstall the .apk, clear.
[Sony Cross-Device General] chesterr:
So this maybe a very dumb question but don't be mad,

Not having an external SD card will give you a bootloop right? Cause XZDualRecovery is created in the external SD!
[Sony Cross-Device General] NFS_FM:
No, it won't. XZDR will just use another directory created in /cache, so there won't be any problems.
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
It should work, the installer script should be capable to enable init.d support even if XZDR is on /cache. Not tested, however.

But. If you don't have an sd card, you'll need to reboot once after the uninstall .zip, boot the system normally, then get back in the recovery and install the other 3.

This only applies to people who don't use an SD card; everybody else should do exactly what I described in post #123.
[Sony Cross-Device General] baseer_IF:
I followed ur procedure but still having this problem plz help me.

Z 1 C D5503
[Sony Cross-Device General] _mysiak_:
The problem being..? You have active Xposed. Just enable some module and try it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] profprof:
It looks good
[Sony Cross-Device General] baseer_IF:
I have installed 3 modules but there is no module to be shown in xposed models option for activate.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
This is question for Xposed thread.
[Sony Cross-Device General] chesterr:
Thanks guys

Just followed #123 and It works awesome
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
After some days of test (Z3C) i highlight a few things:

- the majority of reboots occurs while

calling

. Statistically to follow: when I frequently between applications, chrome and whatapps

- at every normal reboot appear "Android is upgrading, Optimizing application 1 of 1". I verify if there are some files on system may produce the problem, i dont find. But I think it is related to workaround

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
it is related to xposed. you can install workaround without xposed and there will be no reboots at all
[Sony Cross-Device General] joseangel.alv:
Sorry, I couldn't resist!

:highfive: +1
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
Yes i know it, It was simple but i post for report the reboot with this workaround and xposed :cowboy:

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] despeh:
Thanks guys for the effort to come out the workaround. So far so good, in fact it works perfectly well on Xperia Z1 (c6903), I am just following the guide given on post #123.

Tested on the graviti box and serajr Xperia Xposed and both working at my liking. :good::D
[Sony Cross-Device General] meckipower:
Nothing works for me.....

No way for me to get Xposed work on my Z2.....Wether the Workaround by mionica nor by Pandemic ......it's ending in Bootloop. I'd tryed it in several ways, stricly as subscbribed by both, nothing seems to work. I guess, i must wait for an well-working Solution for Lollipop.

btw, im on .726- German-O2 with abricot-V7 Kernel
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
I would suspect custom kernel or kernel settings
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Just found a bug in Xposed's system_server code; it's a long shot, but it's the only file-related thing that looks wrong.

I reported that here and created a pull request here.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
master.... So does it mean that if you get what you need from rovo89 you can read recompile Xposed with your proposed fix.?
[Sony Cross-Device General] meckipower:
...i'll tried with Stock Kernel first, same.... also tried .740 Orange Stock rom, same......in .690 it works for me.....
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Umm I don't need anything from [MENTION=5258659]revo89[/MENTION] - I forked his repo on Github, fixed the thing on my fork, and let him know via a pull request.

It's a longshot, however. But it's the only thing I found wrong in the system_server's code. And I reviewed everything in it that dealt with files.

So I moved on, and now I'm reviewing the android_art project - which is the other possible source for the bug.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
ah OK, never worked with github I misunderstood that you need some zip or so.. ok nevermind ☺
[Sony Cross-Device General] rovo89:
Is anyone up for a quick test? https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed/issues/31#issuecomment-97894226
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
I'll have the result in 5mins
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pandemic:
Oke let us know bro [MENTION=1103233]mionica[/MENTION] and if we still need to flash those zips :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Well, git is certainly not my favourite :)

But it's the de facto rule - you either use it, or you're out. Personally, I'm an svn slave :)

Not unlike Linux. I'm a bit fan of Windows, but that's not an excuse for not knowing the posix things. But my favorite text editor on Linux is Notepad++ running on wine...
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Rovo89 just released a debug version with a fix for our Sony devices... and it works! :) Brace yourselves for an official fix soon.
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Easy now... let's see the open files count from leakplug 1.3 :D

Start buying me beers if this works, the links to the fix are 7 posts above.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Did he fix the part of code you posted earlier?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Actually, I forked his repo, fixed locally, then issued a pull request. He didn't have to :D
[Sony Cross-Device General] norti:
That not yet, but he will.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
Ach! Now I see :) Awesome!
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

--------------------

Gentlemen, start uninstalling xposed-leakplug. And buying me beers.

[i] waiting for boot to finish...
[i] > boot completed after 27s
[v]
[b][i] system_server has only 270 open files

Leak plugged successfully.

Thank you! :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
not so fast. does not bootloop but for example terminal emulator stopped working and 20MP module loads but does not work...
[Sony Cross-Device General] rovo89:
If you mean your pull request: It's not included in the zip I posted. ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
I'm quite sure that 20MP module never did work on LP.
[Sony Cross-Device General] meckipower:
Baaaam

....it seems to work! No Bootloop within....and no FC's...perfect! Must go to buy Beer ;)
[Sony Cross-Device General] nurps:
Fixed xposed works on my Z2, fixscript deactivated, boots fine.

Edit: and no trouble with Terminal Emulator
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Fair enough, but that doesn't seem to be related to the amount of open files. I never said Xposed was now bug-free :)

Anyway, this thread was about (initially) getting rid of the bootloops; we did that. Check.

And after that, it was about maximizing the stability of the system; we also did that. Check.

Finally, when things couldn't be improved, we went after the root cause; we identified it here, and [MENTION=5258659]revo89[/MENTION] fixed it. Check.

Lads, my work is done here... Cheers!
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
ok 20mp was working on previous March alpha but does not work, but related to module. Gravity box works. perfect. thanks [MENTION=4419114]rovo89[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1103233]mionica[/MENTION]

not going to judge who's perfect job it is.

latest version works just perfect.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
works without problem without any fix on vanilla stock ROM
[Sony Cross-Device General] rovo89:
Official version is available: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811#post60454533
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
Guys, I take that back. The ferror() issue I found had nothing to do with the fix; the real fix is here.

Oh well, at least I still have the credit for having identified the root cause, for helping people get rid of the bootloops, with sonyfix, and for making their systems as stable as possible with leakplug before the official fix had become available.

And I absolutely have to thank [MENTION=6351145]ondrejvaroscak[/MENTION] who figured that flimit could be used to somewhat stabilize a system with Xposed; without his find, and his early work, chances are we'd still be waiting for a fix.

Anyway, our problem's gone. Good stuff.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pandemic:
So it works finally on Xperia Z2 to also on FW .726 ? ^^
[Sony Cross-Device General] ImADev:
I'm glad to see this working correctly now. I can finally work on my module without an extra random reboot :)

Thanks guys.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
I don't need to credit myself, which doesn't mean you guys don't deserve one. it was very good and cooperative thread. Thank all who took part and contributed towards happy end, mainly [MENTION=1103233]mionica[/MENTION] you have my admiration for dedication shown.

So just a clarification regarding BusyBox... after install new xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430, i think consequently when in Android install BusyBox or not ?

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] Michele2:
I'm too, it still need "xzdr-busybox-enable-v1.0.zip"?
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
Following post of mionica

in this way busybox files installed with xzdr-busybox-enable, remain on system and not need install BusyBox

But in another way if flash xposed-uninstall-v1.1.zip, we need after install from recovery new exposed alpha 4 and after reboot install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk and conseguently Busybox... i think :confused:

Hispa
[Sony Cross-Device General] djgigi94:
Yes, it works on .726 fw :D (i test it on Hong Kong one :D).I unistall workaround with zip package, then i install new xposed arm, wipe cache and davlik cache ,reboot,i wait the long android upgrade, i install xposed aplha 2 apk, i activate modules and i reboot and it works nicely ;D
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
honestly best would be fresh install of clean rom after all testing :)
[Sony Cross-Device General] Gmobilize:
[MENTION=6351145]ondrejvaroscak[/MENTION] 20MP works ,just download the cybershot xposed module,works good on lollipop

and thanks everyone for the fixes,glad its now officially fixed

just used the xposed uninstall zip to clean up the old fix, flashed the new xposed package and installed the apk ,voila works perfect! ( no wipes required )

btw post #666
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
agreed; however, installing the xzdr-busybox-enable-v1.0.zip is still advised, even with no workaround :)

Or, obviously, people could use busybox installer apps, break XZDR, then complain (and get bashed) in the right thread, which is XZDR's ;)

In all fairness, we didn't have a FAQ section - but the XZDR thread has. And it documents a specific installer that's supposed to work; by way of exclusion, it kinda means the rest don't work properly.

Busybox is needed for many things, but not for Xposed :)

Now, that said, I still recommend staying away from installer apps - and nothing's preventing anyone from using just the busybox enabler zip.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:

I flashed the latest Xposed-arm.zip with cwm,

Wipe dalvik and cache and beng again a f###king bootloop on my z2 latest FW .726

Anyone else have that ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] Metallijim:
Is it correct that the xposed bridge.jar is still 64 after installing alpha 4?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ogunja:
Use the zip to delete and reinstall everything from scratch. Here you are working full time so far [emoji6]
[Sony Cross-Device General] Metallijim:
Did you unistall any installed modules too?
[Sony Cross-Device General] mionica:
No need. Just flash my xposed-uninstall-v1.1.zip, then xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip, and you should be good to go.

Obviously, aftert it boots, you'll also have to install XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk once more, but that's about it.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
yes
[Sony Cross-Device General] Pandemic:
I did bro [MENTION=4716941]ogunja[/MENTION]

Still aint work, get stuck at boot animation :(

I am not a noob and know how to flash and i have the latest XZDR 2.8.14, So what is going on ?
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
wipe everything and start with fresh new rom
[Sony Cross-Device General] gamer649:
Okay? I was following this thread for a bit but I haven't had time recently (250+ replies to read).

Can I ask where we are with Xposed on LP? Has it been updated to include the Sony device fixes? Or do we still have to flash the zips to modify the app load count thing (don't know what it is called) and other problems?

I do apologise if this has been answered in the past few pages, just waiting for a semi-stable xposed and deodex before I update to LP.
[Sony Cross-Device General] e_mc_square:
How about disable all module?

I updated the latest xposed today and installed a new module 20mp camera.

And I stuck at the boot animation.

I using the uinstaller.zip to uninstall the xposed. Boot into the phone successfully after flash the uninstaller.zip

Reinstall xposed.apk. uninstall the 20mp camera module.

And restart. Thats all.

---------- Post added at 09:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:03 AM ----------

Just flash the latest xposed that releasted at 20150430 will do.

[Sony Cross-Device General] ilos:
wrong thread but here the answer...

For lollipop : You should use XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk and latest framework available in official thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

For KK : you should use : 2.7 experimental1 available here http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer

in French :

Ce n'est pas la version 2.7.1 car elle est pour kitkat... Pour Lollipop il faut utiliser celle du poste officiel XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk ici http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=3034811

L'appli et le framework sont dans le même poste je comprends pas pourquoi tu voulais utiliser l'app pour kitkat....

le workaround n'est plus nécessaire car Rovo a release un fix va voir le thread officiel, télécharge le framework et l'apk et enjoy.

I've had a couple of random reboots since I've installed this, in intensive tasks like rendering a huge webpage in Chrome. I'll try to provide a log if I can.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
Try and also your device and firmware. Also try change number of open files in 01_flimit script from 4096 to 2048... It may help...
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
Also link to the heavy webpage would help..
[Sony Cross-Device General] Vic.:
It's already set to 2048. It happened again while playing Clash of Clans, but I coulcouldn't take a log. I'm using an Xperia Z2 on the .726 UK firmware.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
I'm having similar issues to those described by [MENTION=4532944]Vic.[/MENTION]

Please find attached my kmsg. I already tried different values for the flimit. Unfortunately the system always ends up unstable. I guess that if you have a "heavy" system running it will always be unstable with Xposed without wiping.

The funny thing is that I noticed the same exactly instability running [MENTION=5169444]AndroPlus[/MENTION] kernel v52 (same fix flimit). I tried to fix it myself for a week or so, without succeeding.

Also, please note that if I use wipe before booting the system is 100% stable.
[Sony Cross-Device General] ondrejvaroscak:
First thing - what we have found out and coded - is a workaround, not a solution. The solution must come from Xposed developer. Or fork.

There are off-trades, mainly higher memory consumption. Simply as we allowed more files to be left open, more memory is used to map these files.

Also, it is clear that Xposed processes files differently after Dalvik and cache have been wiped. So that's why first boot after wipe is stable. Seemingly while compiling and executing apps for first time, process treats files properly. With subsequent boot while it process cached executables, it creates problems.

At this moment I have no better proposal. also I am no developer, I am more oriented to the underlying system level...
[Sony Cross-Device General] hispanico957:
Very ..veru good reply dear ondrejvaroscak :cool:

[Sony Cross-Device General] Jackos:
No worries, I appreciate your outstanding work. I just wanted to share my experience. And of course I agree with what you wrote. Let's hope we find a way to make Xposed more stable.
