divineBliss have you tried Gravity Box? Some of the things work but most don't. Can't hide the stupid nav bar or notification bar.

What are some other downloads should I get in Xposed?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I did not try Gravity Box. What works in GB that you like on the XT?

There's the mod posted in the main thread to be able to manually hide the navigation bar - I did that .

I use

http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.bocharov.xposed.fsbi (gets rid of that AT&T "airplane mode" crap in the status bar)

http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.versobit.kmark.xhangouts

http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.youtubebackgroundplayback

http://repo.xposed.info/module/ma.wanam.youtubeadaway

http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.ssrdroide.youtubenotificationseekbar

If you find other good ones, let me know.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] dabadguycr:
The only thing I found that works is nav bar tweaks. Most of them work besides hide nav bar. Pie works great! Status bar tweaks don't work at all. Wasn't able to change anything. And a few others that I can't remember right now worked. It's a neat little program.

I've read this whole thread and I am unsure how to install Xposed.

(If this is the wrong thread to post this question please let me know.)

I have a system-less rooted Huawei Ascend XT.

I don't see any post(s) that explains what version of Xposed to download and what method of install is the correct and or best way.

I installed Magisk Manager from the play store and got that up and running ok. Then I tried installing the Xposed module from within Magisk Manager. It said it was installed fine but when I rebooted it hung on the AT&T logo so I reflashed boot image from my backup and I was back in business but without Xposed installed.

Could someone please post a simple step by step instruction for getting Xposed installed. Which files to use and what steps to install them in.

Thanks for the help.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Just follow what I linked in post 3. How long did you wait at the AT&T logo? You may have to wait up to 30 minutes, depending on how many apps you have installed.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] onlycash:
THANK YOU!!!!

It may help others if you update the first post with the link from post 3 and a clear explanation that you need to wait a long time at the AT&T logo on first boot.

If you come to this thread late in the game it can be difficult to understand how you get Xposed installed.

Again Thank You!!
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Don't just say thanks ....... hit the thanks button :good: ;) . I just updated post 1. I generally read the first few pages and last few pages of any new thread and think others should too.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] onlycash:
I hear you, I do the same.

But if you come to this, and other threads like it, with little knowledge or understanding of the topic you can quickly lose track of what is being said as you read.

I always like to ask myself if someone is reading my post, and only my post, can they come away with everything they need to understand the topic I'm speaking about, especially if my post is the first one in a thread.

Most people are coming to threads like this based on a Google search and expecting them to pick up what is being discussed easily may be too much to ask. It can be overwhelming at times.

Again THANK YOU!! (And I did push the button this time.)
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Well if they can't read the first few posts and expect everything on a silver platter for free then .......... :confused:

Did you get Xposed successfully installed and working?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] onlycash:
Yes, I did get it installed and working.

I was just trying to point out that sometimes people coming to threads like this may not even know what Magisk is or how that helps to get Xposed installed etc.

If you search Google for Xposed and Huawei XT this thread is what comes up. I for one never used Magisk before so I didn't pick up at first that this was how you get Xposed installed. I always had to flash a zip in recovery to get it installed in the past.

You have knowledge that seems obvious to you but may be unclear to others. Please try to excuse my ignorance.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I just learned how to install system-less root and system-less Magisk by spending lots of hours with this phone after it became rootable - so all new to me too :) . If things are unclear, people are welcome to ask questions here :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] dabadguycr:
Wrong thread. Sorry.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I successfully updated Magisk Manager app to version 4.1 through the Play Store, then it prompted me to update Magisk to version 11.1 and rebooted within a few minutes. Everything appears to be running fine. Change logs on Play Store and XDA Magisk thread https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445 .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Those that are running xposed, anyone have tested gravity box ?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
The search box will net you a couple of answers.

If you have Xposed installed, is it working for you and what modules are you liking/using? My answers in search results :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Thanks, well I know you haven't try it and something was not working right, but that was a couple of weeks before and though that somebody have been testing it.

But now I see that it's on the same status. :) No I don't have it on my phone yet.

When you Xposed on your XT, please post back here. :)

[MENTION=3704671]CyberManiaK[/MENTION],

I decided to try Gravity Box on the XT. Some things, as expected, do not work. Pie Controls works on XT, which is very awesome :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] RN_ReFlux:
If you want pie controls without an xposed module, look at LMT launcher here on xda. Is full of awesome.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Thanks, but I use Nova Launcher Prime. How does LMT compare - any personal experience between the two? Just started using Gravity Box on XT and I like that I can have up to 12 apps in its Pie Control App Launcher :) . I rely on other Xposed modules, so using GB module suites me fine.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] RN_ReFlux:
It's not actually a ui launcher replacement. It's a pie control, but also includes settings for gesture controls.

https://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1330150&page=1256
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Thanks! :) In that case I've decided to give it a shot. Can you get the pie control to show up on the bottom of the screen?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] RN_ReFlux:
Sure can.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I can't LMT Pie Control to show up from the bottom edge, but I like it enough to keep using it. I'm actually going to use it with Gravity Box Pie Control and the Huawei built-in Floating Dock :) .

Are you using LMT gestures feature too? I tried for a few minutes, but gave up for now.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] RN_ReFlux:
Has never tried the other features, only the pie control.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
When you installed does you also need to install suhide? I follow all the instructions but I can't pass SafetyNet on Magisk.

Maybe i did something wrong. What i did was flashed the zip on the Magisk thread, after that, from playstore download magisk manager.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
My phone did not pass SafetyNet on Magisk, and I don't think it's possible and for my use, I don't care because it's not causing any problems. I did not install suhide. So it seems like your install is okay. Can you install and use Xposed modules - that's the real test.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Oh cool. I haven't heard of SafetyNet before, so assume I don't need it lol

Well I installed GravityBox and the features I like doesn't work, center clock :D , and quick unlock. Then I installed No Lock Home and it doesn't work either :confused:

however App Settings, does works.

EDIT: SatusBarSleep works !! this is for doubletap to sleep like on LG devices.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I can tell you Gravity Box Pie Control works, and for status bar mods I'm using Flat Style Bar Indicators Xposed module.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Thanks, is there anyway to just move the clock to the center but leave everything as is ( i mean signal, wifi icons) ?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I'm not 100%, but I think yes.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I'm loving LMT - it's must have app for me now :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Well to my surprise it doesn't, those icons can't be turned off. Or at least i couldn't find how neither on the official thread.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] retyre:
After installing Xposed, I am finding that the Settings app is force-closing. A reboot solves it sometimes, but the problem reappears on a subsequent boot. Went back to a pre-Xposed backup and everything's fine.

Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Device: H1611, B150, systemless Xposed with Magisk, modules: FSBI, Notify Clean

Update: I see post #14 by divineBliss that documents this, but no solution.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I have not found a solution yet. Sometimes I have to reboot multiple times, but for me it's worth it to have Xposed.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Just curious, any of you are running FolderMount? I'm running Xposed and setting always works, but when I tried FolderMount app and was then when settings was acting that way, flashing for a second. I uninstalled FolderMount and everything works like it should.

(BTW: i'm on B130)
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] retyre:
I am not running FolderMount. I think your problem (Settings FC) may not have been resolved. As you reboot your phone, the issue will likely reappear (it has to do with Xposed).
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Weird then, because that problem only started when FolderMount was installed and it didn't care if the phone was rebooted or not, force closing Settings was every time and also FolderMount was acting the same way as Settings (FC) but once I deleted FolderMount it has been rock solid and settings works always. I'm on B130 I don't know if that is more stable with Xposed than B140/B150 or I'm just lucky.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I'm not using FM either. I think it's either coincidence or FM made the random settings FC worse for your phone. Sometimes I have to reboot many times before settings doesn't FC.

I guess we have enough people experiencing this settings FC to know it's a real problem now. I'm on B150 and can't really say it got better vs B140.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Where you having the same problem on b130?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I had already OTAd to B140 before Xposing my phone. I expect this problem affects B130 as well as B140 and B150.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
[MENTION=3704671]CyberManiaK[/MENTION],

Did you get FolderMount to work correctly on the XT? I tried a long time ago and it didn't work for me on the XT, so dumped it.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] CyberManiaK:
Nah, me neither, so I throw it away.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I have modified the OP to include:

EDIT: WARNING: NOTE: CAUTION:

Please be aware that if you install Xposed framework on your XT, at times the phone won't boot correctly as evidenced by the fact that if you try to go to bring up the phone settings window/app, the screen will just flicker and the settings screen won't open. The simple solution is to just reboot the phone. Sometimes it takes multiple reboots before the phone successfully reboots/settings app can be successfully opened. This issue has been experienced by me and several others who installed Xposed framework on the XT.

For me personally, the advantages of using Xposed modules far outweigh this minor inconvenience which only happens after a phone reboot. :)

===

If anyone finds a solution, please let us know :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Seems like the previously mentioned problem of phone not booting correctly sometimes has been significantly minimized or fixed. Not sure if it was the later Magisk versions or what, but I'm now using Magisk Manager 4.3.1 and Magisk 12.0 with B150 and when I reboot, I'm not seeing the problem anymore or maybe it's been significantly reduced way less than happening after about 50% of the time I rebooted :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] webosFTW:
How did you update to Magisk12? Everytime I try through the Magisk Manager it says Install Error.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
First I updated Magisk Manager from the Play Store and Magisk Manager prompted me through a notification to update Magisk - I just selected the defaults and and let it update Magisk. Don't recall having any issues doing this.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Magisk Manager has been pulled from the Play Store, but is still being maintained and can be downloaded from XDA Labs:

If you are using Magisk v12 successfully, do not update without reading posts in

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382/page1542

as many people are having problems after updating to v13.1. I'm still using SuperSU and that's apparently incompatible with v13.1.

If anyone is successfully running Magisk higher than v12, please post including which SU app you use.

I did update to Magisk Manager v5.0.4 and so far that seems fine.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
After further reading on the Magisk thread, they say that Magisk Manager v5+ should only be used with Magisk v13+, so I went back to using Magisk Manager v4.3.3.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] -n0cturne-:
I tried just about everything to get magisk v13.1 installed.. Stuck in a bootloop every time, necessitating reflashing the stock boot.img (uninstall script doesn't work).

As requested in the magisk thread, I created a github issue with the stock boot.img attached. Only news so far is to install a debug version, in order to generate a log to send to the developer. I'll probably do so later today, though given how widespread the issue is currently I doubt my efforts will be of much help..

So as of now, don't try to install v13.1, unless you are feeling squirrelly and have a clean boot img readily available!
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] faberphoto:
I was just going to attempt to install xposed for the first time, but skimmed this thread one more time and saw your comment. The issues some people are having installing/updating magisk make me hesitant. And i am not feeling too 'squirrely' today so think ill wait. Main reason i want to install it is the loud att carrier label in the status bar is burning my eyes. Havent seen any other way of removing it other than Xposed.

I do have one noob question i would appreciate if someone could shed light on? Reading the install directions posted here from 'howtogeek'...it states that you need a stock boot image. I am using Cisa's 'cleanrom'... Since its essentially just a stripped stock rom I assume it doesn't modify the boot partition/image, or am i mistaken and Xposed will not work with any of the custom roms here? I just came back to android, havent used it since 2011 so I am admittedly pretty green.

And thank you n0cturne for your heads up here....saved me a headache id rather not deal with today.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
You can successfully install Xposed via Magisk/Magisk Manager following the instructions with a bit of guidance.

1. Make a full TWRP backup of your working system before you try to install anything related to Xposed/Magisk. Be sure to TWRP backup boot, system, and data.

2. Follow the instructions previously linked in this thread for installing systemless Xposed framework with Magisk, but install Magisk Manager v4.3.3 and Magisk v12. The newer versions do not work with SuperSU su manager, which is what I assume you are using. Please confirm that. I did not bother trying to update to Magisk v13.1 since it doesn't support SuperSU.

3. The Xposed version to install is Xposed v87 or v87.1 SDK23.

4. Don't install any Xposed modules until your phone is booting and running successfully with the software installed in steps 2 and 3.

5. You can install Xposed modules with the Xposed Installer app once you have successfully completed steps 1-5.

Post if you have any questions.

There will be times as I mentioned previously where your phone may be installing software and you have to wait up to 30 minutes, so be patient.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Are you using SuperSU on your phone? If so, you cannot install Magisk v13.1 and you must install Magisk v12 - see my previous posts for further details.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Install Magisk Manager v4.3.3 apk from here:

https://github.com/topjohnwu/MagiskManager/releases

Magisk v12 must be flashed from TWRP and can be downloaded from XDA post 1 thread:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Be sure to make a full TWRP backup first :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] faberphoto:
Wow, thanks a ton man. Much appreciated. :) I will let you know how it goes.

*EDIT

Accidentally deleted my last reply...been a long day. I am using Supersu v2.79-sr2...So i will install the older version of magisk that you linked. While debating what to do, i backed up everything with TWRP....so its time to go for it :)
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
I expect success :) .

And the first thing I do on every reboot after logging in is make sure that the settings app works. If it doesn't come up, reboot the phone until it does. Once it took me 10 tries and sometimes it works fine on consecutive reboots. I'm curious to know if you experience this issue. Not sure of the exact cause, but this inconvenience is worth having Xposed for me :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] faberphoto:
I have all the proper apk downloaded now, and read through the install process a couple times to get my head wrapped around it. Simple enough i think, just gotta have a strong cup of coffee before i start so i dont make any careless mistakes. And noted on the settings app being buggy. Though i think im with you, the capabilities of xposed seem to outweigh any cons for my use. I cant tolerate being unable to change simple aspects of the UI (other than through emui), among other things. Ill keep you posted on the results. Thanks again for all the direction. :good:
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
If the settings app doesn't come up, other things won't work properly based on what I recall, so I always reboot - but you can try using the phone and see what happens for you :) .
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] faberphoto:
Alright, success! :good: I need to go run some errands that i spaced out, but i will post any observations that might be useful for others a little later, and after i have a little time to test things. I havent installed any modules yet, but the framework is all good to go it appears.

Thanks for your help! Prob wouldnt have went so smoothly without all your info. Ill get back to you with my notes.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Great :) ! Feel free to hit the thanks button :) .

Try the Flat Style Bar Indicators Xposed module to scratch your itch for fixing the carrier icon. It works for me - takes a bit of figuring out though.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] -n0cturne-:
Sorry, should have stated that magisk v12 works perfectly fine - I'm running it right now, hehe

I just meant that magisk v13.1 doesn't currently seem to work on our model, whether or not you use supersu - it just bootloops. Just install v12 according to the directions above, and ignore the notice to upgrade until the kinks get worked out.

As for needing a boot.img, you'll be fine unless you have supersu installed and want to switch over to magisksu. In that case you can always flash a backup, or steal it from a unrooted rom like I did.. Here it is :

[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Since Magisk versions after v12 don't support SuperSU, which su manager were you using on your XT when you tried to update to v13.1? I've never tried anything aside from SuperSU. Would like to hear from anyone running a different su manager on their XT.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] -n0cturne-:
I had vanilla magisk v12 with magisksu enabled (trying to get magiskhide to work, though no luck with xposed installed passing safetynet).

First tried upgrading the manager to v5.x and installing magisk v13.1 using it - endless bootloop. Installed the magisk uninstall script in twrp - still bootlooped. Flashed the default boot.img, rebooted to make sure that everything was fine, and tried installing the magisk v13.1 zip in twrp - bootloop. Even backed everything up, flashed a vanilla rom, and attempted to install by zip again - still bootloop - that's when I saw all the forum posts regarding the same issue..

Back to running v12 again without any issue, besides having lost all the relevant settings and installed modules
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] faberphoto:
The Flat style Bar indicators work great. Thanks for the heads up. Regarding the settings page, it only has refused to launch 3 times out of probably 20 plus soft reboots. So i find it to be a minor issue. And i would say im pretty picky about stability issues. Pros definitely outweigh the cons for my use case. Everything seems to be working great thus far. Only other thing i can think to mention to anyone considering installing xposed on there xt; As divineBliss has pointed out, be patient while the Framework is installing. I timed it, and it sat on the android/att screen for 17 minutes. Once done, phone remained hot for about 45min, then everything chilled out and is currently running buttery smooth.
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
Thanks for the details. Wow, so no go for Magisk v13.1 even with MagiskSU. Seems that you tried everything I can think of including flashing the zip with TWRP, so I don't have any suggestions.

How do you find MagiskSU vs SuperSU? How did you switch from SuperSU to MagiskSU? ..... Uninstall SuperSU, then TWRP install MagiskSU zip?
[Huawei Ascend XT Questions & Answers] divineBliss:
[MENTION=7597068]-n0cturne-[/MENTION], [MENTION=6883042]faberphoto[/MENTION], and others...

If you look in Magisk Manager modules tab, which version of Xposed Framework are you guys using?

I updated from v87.0 to v87.1 yesterday by flashing the topjohnwu v87.1 systemless Xposed Installer zip from TWRP as doing an update from the Magisk Manager app did not work and Magisk Manager and Xposed Installer app weren't seeing any Xposed Framework after I updated using Magisk Manager app.
