The Problem lies within Riru >V22.0. They changed some things to better hide it. Now all Modules using Riru must be updated. The current Version of "Riru - EdExposed" is not updated, so it won't work with Riru >=22.

Take a look at the Riru changelogs for more infos:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
As I said it's not a KMod problem, it's a Magisk problem, in this case of the Xposed Riru module, as you said, I have't stopped reading comments with which many people say that it's not working. But when something goes wrong, people don't think that maybe the root of the problem is not the Xposed module, but that it could be from the foundation on which it works.

He says that 99% of modules have an easy solution. But it will depend on the module and its complexity, and of course he doesn't provide any solution (or at least I haven't seen it so far), he just throws the ball to the other developers.

If someone, instead of complaining that the module doesn't work, provides viable solutions, I'm willing to try to add that solution if it's viable in KMod, since there are modules and modules, and some are more complex at the code level than others.

Anyway, @Grizzler89 thank you very much for the information, I hope this gives some light.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
I found something, if any of those who aren't working with KMod want to try it, they will say if it has helped them.

Mmm, for what I can see, the above is more useful for who have problem with new Edxposed itself, but isn't useful for the problem explained by me and Grizzler89 (and others) :confused:

However, have you any idea of how we could test something?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
From what I could find out, a lot of people face the same problem with the Riru module, and from what I have read, Magisk should adapt to this module for the module to work well (which I do not find very coherent, since it's the module which has to be adapted to Magisk and not vice versa, from my point of view).

[Xposed Framework Modules] zalood:
I'm stil on WhatsApp 2.20.198.16.

I guess I don't need to update for time being. Both apps still works as intended.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Yes, it happened to me too, I don't know why this is happening, it's very strange and I can't give you any explanation. The only thing I can think of is that I updated the libraries to AndroidX, since before updating, it did not give any problem.

Anyway, as right after installing, you still have to restart for Xposed to activate in KMod FWA, it's not a really important problem. The problem would be that even after restarting this would continue to happen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] citrous:
Hey Krowne, thank you for your great work.

I currently wanted to update, but on exposed there is no latest version.

So I downloaded the file via repository. But I can't install the apk, because of an error "sorry, no application available"

I tried to go back to the previous version, but that is now runned out.

I'm running on miui 12 with edexposed

Happy New year to you
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mr_Happy:
Rename it to apk...
[Xposed Framework Modules] citrous:
Thank you for your advice

It's already named .apk

But I solved the problem right now by using the stock file explorer. ES explorer did not support the apk (no clue why)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Currently nothing can be uploaded to the Xposed repository, since the XDA website was changed, and no one can log into the repository, and it is a bit abandoned, since it has had some bugs for months, and nobody solves them.

Regarding the download of the application itself from within KMod FWA, the download code is quite old, and I should create an update of the entire code, but I don't know if to do it because I have many projects running and little time, like this that I have to manage priorities..
[Xposed Framework Modules] citrous:
It's fine, how it is. So, don't feel pushed into circumstances. There are so many more important things going on out there, than hiding a "last seen" on WA. 🙂

Actually, therefore we have this thread to solve issues together or find work arounds.

Best wishes
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
Yeah.. this is where I get off. Your mod has always seemed kind of fishy being closed sourced and with the weird hardon for controlling when people update. I'm gonna go with my gut on this one and never install this on my phone ever again.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
It seems totally reasonable to me. But the reasons why it's not open source I explained dozens of times. And one of the reasons is not to give WhatsApp facilities to know how we do things, so that they do not change the code, since every time they change it I have to break my head to try to find solutions.

There are a lot of closed source Xposed modules out there though, and I doubt people won't use them for being so (me among those people).

Also, you want to tell me that you only install open source apps? Almost 100% of the apps on the Play Store are closed source and I'm sure you will install them anyway (WhatsApp among them).

If you want us to talk about something, we do it in private, because this is not the place for it.

However, you are free to make your decisions. If you ever change your mind, you are welcome.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
Because whatsapp cares so much about what a few hundred guys do on xda. I file that under b s excuse.

Nice diversion but most mainstream Play Store apps are pretty safe whether they are closed source or not (and in the way they're unsafe we are all more or less aware of how, privacy concerns, etc), unlike your mod which just crashed the key chain and a bunch of other system services after an update. That's not normal behavior at all, what was it doing poking over there, Krowne?

This IS the place for it. This is where people air their concerns, you engage them or not and people make up their own mind. Your mod is already shadowy as it is, at least engage some of the security concerns some may have (whether now or in the future) in a place where your users are able to see you dispell them for everyone to see.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
I respect that you don't agree with my thoughts regarding the forced updates of KMod, or that it's closed source, and even that you don't want to continue using KMod. But please, respect me too, I don't agree with you trying to discredit me or my work because of your paranoia. Since I tried to explain what I did, and you imply that I'm doing something dark, when I can assure 100% that after restarting, the system remains exactly the same and without problems.

As I said, the only thing I did was update the expiration date, repair some other error and, above all, update the Android libraries to AndroidX.

When I updated the libraries to AndroidX, something that Android Studio constantly suggests to me is when this error occurs during installation. It also asks me to update Gradle, but if I update it, KMod stops working at all, resulting in Android reboots, something that shouldn't happen at all, and still does.

In fact, apart from you, and myself, no one else has notified me of these errors, therefore as I said, maybe it is some kind of conflict with AndroidX and the Rom, both yours and mine.

However, if this error continues to occur to many more people, when I have time I will investigate it, since of course the behavior is not normal, just to do an update of the Android Studio libraries.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hansxl:
No problems here after installing. Only problem I had is when I downloaded the attachment I couldn't install because the the download got the file extension .bin. Don't know why.

It took me some minutes to discover that renaming to .apk was the solution 😂
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
I think this is due to the version of Android you are using, in other applications have already reported this, I think you should look in the downloads folder of the personal profile to see the correct file extension.
[Xposed Framework Modules] update.freak:
In the App EdXposed Manager (v4.5.7) in "Download" there is KMod FWA only in version 2.8.1 instead of 2.8.2.

Why is not provided here the new version?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me please if there is a way to increase text font within conversation section?

( not what's appears on main contact )
[Xposed Framework Modules] Powaqqatsi:
@Krowne

Is there any way to increase the font size within Text Conversations ( inside Bubbles )

Beyond of Whatsapp settings that offer Maximum size " LARGE "

I would appreciate any help of you.

Thank you,

Ross
[Xposed Framework Modules] Varaug_V:
Just to confirm, Do you want it even larger than the normal whatsapp large setting?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Powaqqatsi:
YES !

I want the font size larger than whatsapp " large " settings available.

Any idea how to do this please?

( Got eyes problems )
[Xposed Framework Modules] Triggerfinger68:
It is alsof possible by downloading App Settings in Xposed. Here you can change the font size as big as you want.

Regards
[Xposed Framework Modules] The Analog Kid:
Well, that's a large eye problem you got there. Usually I find myself scaling to a smaller than the smallest available ... yes, as Triggerfinger68 suggest, "App Settings" module can do the trick

From my ROOTED G730-U251 using XDA mobile free
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
This is a bug that occurs occasionally, which I have already investigated several times, but have never managed to solve.

When I made the choice to expand the size of the font on the lists, I did so in the conversation screen, but it didn't work, because WhatsApp already has the option to extend the font there. I'm afraid you'll have to use the module that you have recommended.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Powaqqatsi:
Thank you so much it works !

---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 PM ----------

It would be fine if you add extra large and huge size for the conversation fonts.

for the while App settings does the job and this is the only function I use the module.

I would be hopefully that you take it in consider and add " EXTRA LARGE" AND SO

to Kmod.

Thank you again for details.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Sam Nakamura:
Hello, I love the kmod module and want to know if there is a possibility to change the design of the popup notifications, they are altered when I load a them from xda but I can't find where to change it. Especially the big white background is annoying.

Thanks for a hint cause if been looking for this since 3 hours..
[Xposed Framework Modules] rockz1991:
Feature request: krowne, can you include night mode, similar to android n? Night mode changes the theme automatically according to the time of the day. Like light theme during day and dark theme during night..
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
As stated in the first post, you can not make requests, as this I will do it as a hobby and no I demand nothing. But as I'm ignoring the first post many months ago, I accept ideas, but I will choose the order of priority, and I can do in a day, or a year :p

I'm not sure it can be done. I think the popup correspond to android, not WhatsApp. But if it can do, I will. :cyclops:

That's an idea I've been wanting to do since I version 1.0 in January last year, and it's something I've been giving a lot of laps to think how to implement it, because it is complicated how to structure the idea. But when I have clear about how to do it, I will do. :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Sam Nakamura:
Thanks for your answer, I would never demand anything, I thought that I just can't find the right settings... Cause the popup notifications are altered and look quite different from the original... But as a said, I thought there must be settings cause when you load any theme from xda it comes with altered popup notifications...
[Xposed Framework Modules] Mmedic23:
I think it's a feature on the new update, we can now select multiple chats from the chats screen. When I "tick" chats to select them, first the "Calls-Chats-Contacts" menu, which is normally black, turns an orange colour, which I use in multiple places in my theme, then when I deselect the chats, the menu goes back to its default blueish-green colour. Is there a setting I'm missing or is this a bug? I hope I was understandable as I'm not a native speaker. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Varaug_V:
Is currently an issue in the current version of kmod. You can try to minimize these effects by using lpthemer or the uwc mods. I'm currently using lpthemer (on marshmallow) as its a bit more robust than uwclite. It doesn't work 100% of the time though but it's much better than normal.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Paxin:

Too bad, just installed Android R and found out EdXposed will not work with Riru 21.3. I have to install Riru 23.1. So I'll have to live without KMOD for now :cry:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Sorry, but lately I don't have much time. However, my idea is to update the application with a new interface and update the code to optimize it a bit, because it's currently too tangled, since I have had to add patch after patch for years.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hansxl:
Don't worry, I'll keep following this thread and wait patiently. Long time ago I used to be a programmer and I know the trouble to fix problems in legacy programs (and mostly didn't get the time/authorization to rewrite the whole program :LOL:)
[Xposed Framework Modules] regularmen:
it seems that when I activate whitelist mode in Edxposed Manager, Kmod no longer works. but Kmod still think it has successfully hooking the mod to my whatsapp while in fact it does not. to reproduce this, Whitelist mode in Edxposed Manager --> Open Kmod --> Use Reload Button --> No changes were made in whatsapp. Running AOSP Pie with Magisk 21.4, Riru 21.3, Edxposed 0.4.6.4, Kmod 2.8.2 and latest whatsapp.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Han-Droid:
same here! since a couple of weeks I have a not-working KMOD although other mods are still working. I admit, I got used to it and since I realize an enormous shift of my contacts to other messengers (telegram, signal and threema), I tend to turn my back to whatsapp - I only sticked to WA over the years because the "mass" forced me to do so.

* conspiracy alert * :-) ---- kmod refuses to support WA because the author wants us to leave WA for good reasons!

just kidding, no offence! ;-)
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Option 1 absolutely.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nevernat_theoriginal:
But EdXposed v0.5.2.1_4677-master seems to necessarily require Riru v23. *?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
This is the configuration of the latest functional versions with KMod FWA, if it works, there is no need to update Magisk Manager, edXposed Manager, or Magisk modules.

I plan to make the module from scratch, with all the latest versions of everything, but not at the moment, because I don't have time. I have other jobs going on, and I don't have time for everything. And since KMod FWA works in the version I said, and many other older modules as well, I'm in no rush to start the project again.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
With the latest update v2.21.4.1, when opening WhatsApp it crashes. Don't install the latest beta, or disable KMod FWA until an update is released to correct this bug.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Version 2.8.3 (09-02-2021 - From WhatsApp 2.21.4.1):

Required base 2.21.4.1 or higher.

Fixed a bug that prevented opening WhatsApp 2.21.4.1.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Vorion:
@Krowne Hope you are doing well. It's refreshing to see a new version of KMOD. Thank you.

I would like to report a bug, I am on the latest KMod 2.8.3 and Whatsapp Beta 2.21.4.13. Gallery is not opening on Whatsapp. It crashes. All other functions work fine even the privacy settings. I tried to clear cache of both KMod and Whatsapp. I even tried other compatible stable/beta apks of Whatsapp and also reinstalled. I did everything I could. Gallery isn't opening on Whatsapp. But I can still share media directly from Gallery to Whatsapp. If I disable KMod, Gallery opens on Whatsapp without any issue.

Is there any workaround or is it an isolated issue on my device, Samsung S8. I use HadesRom Android 10, Samsung OneUI 2.5. Latest Magisk and EdXposed.

Thanks again, Krowne.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Askingsomething:
The edxposed apk works well and now my whatsapp is working. How do I change my conversation's send background button to different colour? I tried every possible setting but it doesn't work. Pic rel.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Askingsomething:
I have the same issue since last year. I couldn't navigate through media, links and docs of any chats.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
First of all, note that whenever you install an update of any Xposed module, you must have EdXposed Manager open and then install the module with EdXposed Manager open. After accessing the list of modules, and disable KMod FWA. Reboot the device (never software reboot), then activate KMod FWA and reboot. If your device has Android 8.0+, please enable permissive SELinux mode from KMod settings and reboot. If after restarting you still don't work KMod FWA, open it and try to enter WhatsApp, to check if now the configuration works.

Below I provide the latest versions of Magisk and its modules where KMod FWA works.

Magisk: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v22.0/Magisk-v22.0.apk

Modules:

RiruCore: https://github.com/Krowne/App/releases

It's strange, because in all this time, WhatsApp never closed when I opened the gallery. In addition, it is strange, because KMod never touches anything related to the gallery, except that it's something of the customization of the layouts of that section, which doesn't detect an ID correctly, although I did it so long ago, that I don't remember if that there is in that part any customization. However, if you could provide me with a registry and the exact version of WhatsApp and its mobile architecture, I could try to investigate if I can buy a little time.
