Xposed/edXposed doesn't work with virtual applications as is the case, with the second applications generated by the OS. You could have as many versions of WhatsApp as you want, but generating independent profiles, so when one profile is active, the others will not receive messages. This is done by Titanium Backup, and I've been thinking about incorporating it into KMod FWA for a long time, since I made an independent application that does just that using a Widget.

Sorry, now I don't know how to help you, I already told you everything that occurred to me. I can only tell you to try different versions of edXposed, and if you can install Xposed, install it. Although everything points to a serious incompatibility of your device with Xposed. :(

If the same thing happened to someone and could solve it, please help him.
[Xposed Framework Modules] bottedumal:
Thanks for your reply! But I didn't understand everything ? witj titanium backup I have a way to use kwa with my both whatsapp? Or any other solution? Doesn't matter if I have to change the dual. App to something else, as long as I can have both whatsapps
[Xposed Framework Modules] Maday El:
It has finally worked for me, I flashed Pixel experience custom ROM, and did the steps listed....thanks Krowne
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
No, let's see ... You'll install a single WhatsApp. And let's say you have 2 profiles. Enter profile 1 and enter a number, validate it and chat on WhatsApp. Now, if you switch to profile 2, the information in profile 1 is saved and WhatsApp remains as if it had just been installed, then enter the phone number of profile 2 and chat.

While in profile 2, you will not be able to receive messages or notifications from profile 1, since it is deactivated, therefore, your contacts will not see you receive the messages until you return to profile 1.

As soon as you return to profile 1, you will receive all the messages, and your contacts will see that you have received the messages. But then, profile 2 will be saved, and the same will happen as with profile 1 above, you will not receive messages, nor will your contacts see that you receive messages, until you return to that profile.

Disadvantages:

You will not receive notifications of messages from inactive profiles, you will only receive from the profile that is currently active (it's as if each profile was a phone, and when you activate a profile, you turn off the phones of the other profiles).

Advantages:

You can have as many profiles as you want (although I limit it to 8 in my application, because more, I saw it unnecessary).

It is taking up less space, since it only installs an application, and what it does is exchange information about it, with each profile.

You are using official WhatsApp at all times.

I'm glad you solved it, I figured it would be phone/ROM problem
[Xposed Framework Modules] ctsuresh:
Thanks for this excellent module.

Is there any option to save status and profile of others?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Shubhambora:
I shouldn't be asking this, but when can I expect a working connection warnings feature? ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Not yet. But all the images seen or downloaded have them in SD/WhatsApp/Media

I remember that there was some incompatibility between a change of versions, but that was already resolved, what I don't remember is if I published it in the previous version or if it is in the current beta version.

It's working correctly for me now, so I guess it will be in the beta.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Shubhambora:
Where can I find the beta version? I don't see any beta release in edxopsed installer.

Version 2.7.8 will be the next public version. Version 2.7.7.2 is the Beta version, only available for beta testers.

If you want to join the beta, PM [MENTION=4969223]Krowne[/MENTION] and he'll do what he can.
[Xposed Framework Modules] ArmynC:
I have a Galaxy S10 (Pie) and this mod is doing nothing. I changed the theme and nothing happened. I tried some weeks ago and it was the same. Right now I tried to install with Magisk SELinux Manager to Permissive and nothing happened. I installed it by following the instruction (the app part). I have magisk-EdXposed-SandHook-v0.4.6.0_beta-release.zip. Any idea?
[Xposed Framework Modules] bottedumal:
Thanks a lot for this clear explanation.

I think the disadvantages are too much for me, I'll have the mod activated just on one WA ?

Do you plan to add "message a number" and "translate a message" features? These where quite useful. Maybe they are and I missed them ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Beta v2.7.7.5

Beta available only a few hours, then it will be removed.

Please, don't request update and don't request changelog.

I don't want to say the changes, to verify what's failing global. Report errors detected in private messages (if it's possible with screenshots).

If you cooperate, I will randomly upload Beta versions (always for a few hours) to test globally.

Uncorrected bugs:

The floating button on the main screen does not change the color of the moment.

Settings section doesn't apply customization.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
I was unhiding a group I had hidden and after I refreshed whatsapp I lost my theme and apparently all other customizations. I haven't updated whatsapp, do I still have to do the whole Oreo process described here? Not sure if something else has happened in between. I thought that after the last update with would be left alone as long as we didn't update whatsapp. I mainly just want to keep using what I was using without having to keep up with development. If I update whatsapp yes, I should be asked to update kmod accordingly if that version doesn't support the whatsapp I updated to, but if I'm fine with an outdated whatsapp version and don't update, surely kmod can leave us alone?

This is what I'm using:

Whatsapp 2.19.216

kmod 2.7.6

Android 8

UPDATE: just restarted my phone and I've been informed that kmod has expired :sigh: I use the regular Xposed installer, do I need to do everything through Magisk now? I was under the impression that the last update would allow us to keep using an old whatsapp and kmod version as long as we didn't update (because the libraries were divorced from kmod.. or something), is this the case with the new version? I like to setup things once and forget about it unless I update but kmod just doesn't allow me to do this.. unnecessarily, I believe. If whatsapp itself isn't forcing me to update (and I'm not updating it) I don't know why kmod is the one doing it smh.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Always after an update, KMod FWA must be deactivated from the list of Xposed modules, and immediately reactivated (ie, two touches on the checkbox to deactivate and activate), and then perform a normal restart (never by software) so that Xposed can detect the module correctly.

In the case of hidden contacts, I forgot to mention it. Due to some changes in the latest versions of WhatsApp, I have changed the value of that option, so you will have to activate the contacts or groups you want to hide again (in beta version of KMod FWA).

I recommend that you also use the latest beta versions of WhatsApp, and remember to update libraries.

You can check the list of available libraries in the following link: https://github.com/Krowne/Libraries

Edit: The strange thing is that it has not expired days ago, since version 2.7.6 expired the day before the release of version 2.7.7.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
You mean after the release of a kmod update or after I update either whatsapp or kmod? I didn't update whatsapp or kmod myself, kmod just told me that it had expired. Does that mean that I can still keep the pre-update version of kmod and whatsapp if I deactivate and activate kmod in xposed installer?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
No, the version you are using of KMod FWA (version 2.7.6) expired days ago, so you cannot use it, the strange thing is that it continued to work, but it shouldn't have.

If you have had time to download the Beta version I published a while ago, then I recommend you install WhatsApp 2.19.285, or if you prefer the latest version 2.19.294.

I recommend that you always install an update of KMod FWA, since the one you are using will expire. And then, update WhatsApp to the latest version available at that time, since the published and stable versions of KMod FWA will work with the latest versions of WhatsApp published at the same time of the KMod FWA update.

This is forever for update KMod FWA. But if you update KMod FWA, as I told you above, I recommend you upgrade to the latest available WhatsApp Beta version on the date of the update of that version of KMod FWA.

Saying simpler ... If KMod FWA is published on October 10, you must install the WhatsApp beta version of the same day, for optimal operation of KMod FWA, both in terms of developments and possible bugs.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
I see. However, in the Libraries page I see "2.19.216 (Stable)" as being available but after I updated kmod now it told me that that whatsapp version was no longer supported and that I had to update. Was that supposed to happen?

Would the beta version never expire if I don't update whatsapp? :) because "beta" suggest to me that it would force me to be constantly updating all the time, which is what I want to avoid if I'm not updating whatsapp and kmod.

It expires for seemingly artificial reasons though, given that my system remains the same (no update of either kmod or whatsapp). We are not moving SWIFT transactions over whatsapp, if Microsoft allows their users to choose when to update their systems I don't see why kmod can't. Is there something I'm not seeing? I really want to understand and/or otherwise wish you would reconsider this stance. I personally don't care about whatsapps latest, I'm fine with whatever whatsapp I'm using at the moment as long as kmod works, but it stops working even though I remain on the same whatsapp version that was working just fine minutes ago.

With that being said, after I updated kmod, whatsapp and libraries I'm getting a white shadow where the tabs are supposed to be. I hide all tabs but even when I show all the tabs again the white shadow is still there. Is this an issue with the new version or would there be a way to affect this using a customization. I can provide my theme if necessary.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Yes, that is correct. Version 2.19.216 is for KMod FWA 2.7.6, which is the previous version. You must always install the last one, because 2.7.6 is expired.

The beta version will always expire at the same time as the stable version. That is, in the case of the current beta version 2.7.7.5 it will expire when the stable version 2.7.7 expires.

Each version of KMod FWA has an expiration date, which is usually the same day of the publication of a new version, or the next day.

Yes, but the reasons for expiration are not artificial, they are premeditated, because all versions of KMod FWA always have an error that has escaped me at the time of launching the update, or I simply have not managed to resolve it. Therefore, everything has an expiration date.

In addition, currently developers can force the update of their applications if they consider it necessary, and I with KMod FWA see it constantly necessary, otherwise the development would stop. Here is the link to the news:

https://techcrunch.com/2019/05/07/android-developers-can-now-force-app-updates/

In fact, Microsoft forces you to install updates, Windows 10 installs updates in the background, even if you have updates disabled.

And I repeat as I explained earlier. I force updates to correct bugs, add new features, and thus only notify me of errors of a specific version of KMod FWA. Imagine I did not put an expiration date and you sent me error reports of a KMod FWA version from 6 months ago? it would be absurd, because possibly those errors are corrected in more current versions.

In addition, as I always work with the latest WhatsApp betas, I always adapt KMod FWA to the latest published betas, or the latest stable version published, to reduce the margin of errors, since the code always changes.

Without forgetting, that one day WhatsApp would expire, and then you could not use that version of KMod FWA, with a more current version of WhatsApp, that's why the update is forced.

Review the options in that section, and verify that they are active, and if they are, apply the color again (changing the color to another accepting it, and replacing the existing color again).

This is found in: Interface > Screen Format > Menu background

EDIT: Don't forget to update libraries with each KMod FWA or WhatsApp update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] untokozontuli:
Krowne, I really appreciate the time and effort you put into developing and bettering the KMOD application, but is it really necessary for us to always receive updates of the KMOD application?

For example... I was on WhatsApp 2.19.230 and the KMOD application informed me that it had expired, so I updated both KMOD and WhatsApp and now, whenever I try to save and apply the one theme I have always used, my WhatsApp application crashes and due to this, I now hate using the WhatsApp application, since it is no longer to my acquired taste...

I hope this issue or bug, will soon be fixed...
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
The old unsupported versions don't need to be available for new users but the people who have already been using it for months, presumably without any major issues (or they would've reported them or stopped using kmod), should be able to keep it. I don't think this is unreasonable. If someone reports an issue with an unsupported version they can just be instructed to update and report back if the problem persists. This is what most projects do, it's not revolutionary or unusual. You can also make users aware that the version they have installed is currently not supported via a pop up but allow them to remain with the version they have currently installed. As it is people just come here to report problems after being forced to update anyways. Crash analytics tools can also be configured to disregard notifying about certain versions, if that were the issue. It really mistifies me why you are so attached to this, I still can't see why.

In that instance, forcing the user to update is justified of course, no one has said otherwise. But kmod forces people to update even if they still have versions that whatsapp hasn't set to expire. No one is asking you to support those versions, just that you be a little be more flexible on the phase out. KMod can see whatsapps version so you can just let the user know and force him to update once that happens but if the user has both consciously opted out of the play store's automatic updates and kmod's he should be able to keep using the setup that works for him.

I had already tried that but did it again. All the same options seem to be active but they are having this unwanted side effect. At first, the full white background doesn't show when I scroll all the way down (I can still see a white line underneath the top bar after refreshing whatsapp though, it didn't use to be there) but after I scroll up and down a couple of times it starts to show up.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
That is because you have not updated the libraries, the server is down and, until it's fixed, they cannot be updated, I'm trying to find out why.

Sorry, regarding the issue of updates, I already said what he had to say.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Fixed server

The server problem is already fixed for the Beta version libraries.

Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
What about the server for the stable version? Is it up? I installed the libraries for the new version today as we were having our convo, so it should've worked. Did you release an update in the last few hours? If not then I think this is happening with the updated libraries.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
Something seems to have been broken when I was changing between the old and new version. Now kmod doesn't start at all, it stops at the splash screen. Tried uninstalling it and wiping the cache several times with no luck. Is there a way to fix this?
[Xposed Framework Modules] hackermssharma:
Installed lattest kmod, activated in edexposed, rebooted then i try to open but it gives a reboot automatically and it after rendom reboot a toast will appear on screen that "find device services stoped unfortunately" again tried to open, tried clearing data of kmod blabla.... But kmod not able to open everytime it gives reboot to device. Anyone help me?
[Xposed Framework Modules] The Analog Kid:
Just updated to WA 2.19.291 and bubbles in conversations don't change colors. KMod FWA 2.7.7, updated libraries and all. Android 8.0.

... so reverted back to stable WA 2.19.274.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nevernat_theoriginal:
From the version WA 2.19.279 with updated libraries the bubble customization does not work. Kmod 2.7.7 MIUI 10.3.5 Pie 9.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
The stable server is always up, the problem was with the Beta server, which is not as stable. Before updating WhatsApp check the list of available libraries. Anyway, these days there was a small bug in the bookstores that I have already corrected.

Forget the previous version, when a new version comes out, use the new one, because the old ones will be blocked, I already explained it to you the other day. And if you are installing the new one, do what I have said dozens of times, disable KMod FWA from the list of Xposed modules, do a normal reboot (never by software) activate KMod FWA, and do a normal reboot.

First of all, you have the down version from the repository Xposed? There are some cracked versions of KMod FWA circulating on the internet, which meet the symptoms you have described.

In case you are using the official version, verify that you have all the permissions requested by KMod FWA active, and that you have granted the root permissions.

I'm aware of this, I reported this a few weeks ago. The beta version that I published for a few hours in the forum the other day, corrected this problem. However, I will try to work by solving the occasional error that has arisen these days, and I will try to publish an update over the next week.

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

Don't download KMod FWA from unofficial sites. They are manipulating the application, and this produces reboots on the device, which are a security measure every time you try to enter KMod FWA.

Remember that you are granting root permissions to the application and that any user who manipulates the application could inject malicious code.

That is why it has enough security measures that force it to restart, so as not to enter the application in case this is not the official version.
[Xposed Framework Modules] buddy66:
[MENTION=4969223]Krowne[/MENTION], I have an S9+ and there is awindow which suggests to download the application from XDA if the device does not support Andoid Themes. What should I do to get it working?
[Xposed Framework Modules] SoGoLs:
So....how i can get the beta version sir?
[Xposed Framework Modules] chooks06:
PM Dev to join. Cheers!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
What version of Android do you have? are you using edXposed or Xposed? If you are using edXposed, have you followed the manual I put a few days ago?

For now it's not available, if nobody informs me of errors of the beta version that I published a few days ago, I will not publish it again and I will continue publishing only the stable versions, sorry (and at the moment I have not received any pm with any information). It was one of the conditions to continue publishing beta versions from time to time and the beta group is closed at this time, maybe later add someone else.

That doesn't work that way, they can only send me pm to enter the tester group when I do the publications for it, and for some time I haven't made publications of this type. Currently I don't accept more people in the tester group, unless I consider that I want it as a tester for a specific reason.
[Xposed Framework Modules] chooks06:
My bad.
[Xposed Framework Modules] rpgdev:
I had done that several times before posting. I ended up restoring a recent nandroid backup and going from there.

Btw, I'm still getting this. Have you been able to reproduce it? Maybe it's tied to the conversation bubble stuff?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Look at pm.
[Xposed Framework Modules] hansxl:
After updating WA to 2.19.291 my hidden contacts are not hidden anymore (updating libraries made no difference). Reverting back to WA 2.19.274 and it's okay again

oreo 8.0, xposed via magisk.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Krowne:
Thanks, I'm also aware of this and it's already fixed for the next update. :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] Zer0_rulz:
hi im new on this exposed module, is there any feature that u can see them online and u dont appear online?
[Xposed Framework Modules] stormy1777:
In my case (moved to Android9/Pie, prior phone was marshmelow) , KMOD FWA 2.7.7 / 2.19.291 appear to work fine, however going into white list causes a CRASH to KMOD/FWA, not sure where the logs are..

BTW1:

Tried to downgrade, however based on other threads, it is not possible to downgrade an apk on Android 7 and higher:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/43926635/adb-install-failure-install-failed-version-downgrade

:/cache # pm install -r -d "/cache/com.whatsapp.apk"
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE]

not sure how to mark youtube ask "debuggable", to be able to downgrade without reinstall, each reinstall is a saga to re-authenticate and all that :)

BTW2: the message in the app when clicking the { Privacy/"hide read confirmation } appears to not be accurate, when chosing to enable it says:

"Others just see if their message was sent. not if you recived it. Showing them only ONE tick not TWO"

but that is not what read-confirmation should be.

Read confirmation is blue vs. non-blue ticks (two in each case).

*delivery report* is the single tick vs. two ticks..

further below in the app it has delivery report, without any mention to single/.two ticks.. anyways, it might be like that for historical reasons..
[Xposed Framework Modules] Zorikage:
Hello i have last edxposed and last whatsapp running on 9.0 bootleggers custom rom.

When i change the theme of whatsapp it does not work, even if privacy and some other settings works well i try to change colors but it simple doesn't apply when refreshing. This happen to a lot of features that i would like to theme.

I have last legit from rep Kmod FWA, also i did everything on the guide as said with any issue.. i hope i can fix it, i would like to make whatsapp invisible in some aspects.

Ps; i tried with permissive linux too, should i disable hooking on resources in edxposed? Thanks!

Thanks dev for your incredible work
