welp I have successfully installed xposed SDK 27 on my Verizon pixel 2. rooted with magisk, TWRP, and bootloader unlocked obviously.

I installed the module from Magisk along with the modified xposed installer it provides. then went in to the xposed installer app, granted root, rebooted in to recovery and installed the magisk patched xposed zip with TWRP. booted back up, and xposed installer says xposed is installed.

however I can no longer pass safety net. is there a reason for this? doing some research it seems that systemless xposed will do this.

---------- Post added at 03:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:21 PM ----------

upon further use, the xposed app crashes quite frequently. I guess revo89 is aware of this issue.
[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] zelendel:
If you read the article you will see where they corrected it. If you use xposed at all you lose SafetyNet.

Tis alternative Xposed installer is working better with fewer crashes. Use the test build posted towards the end of the thread.

[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] JRJ442:
There are a few different ones. But Custom Quick Settings is my favorite. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quinny898.app.customquicksettings. I added the bottom 4 in the screenshot. Double click the TWRP tile takes me straight into bootloader in case I want to fastboot a radio or something.

I tried installing the Viper4Android for Magisk 15 module via the Magisk Manager app on my Pixel 2 XL, but all I got was the stupid "There's an internal problem with your device" message on boot, and the V4A app just says I/O error. What is the correct way to get it to work?
[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] nes4r2:
You're installing the wrong version.

Install this one on the list of modules in magisk and it will handle the rest.

Your are going to get some options in the installer so read your options.

BTW "internal problem" message is common. I get it also on every reboot. There's a mod you can do to hide that.
[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] braindead444:
I used root so that I can run a program called ***** *******, another program called ad-away, and so that I can install and run the injected YouTube Background Playback to once again avoid ads at all costs. A majority of my root activities are all about ridding my phone of advertisements because I can not stand ads and so I do not want them on my device or following me around on the internet. Second to getting rid of ads is the option to run apps that will let me interface with the kernel for overclocking, underclocking and undervolting to get slightly better battery life. In the grand scheme of things it all comes down to what you need and you will eventually figure out what you need root for or possibly not need it for and can just run a stock rom. If you need some reason to have root then do it for the added bonus of not having to deal with advertisements anymore.

How the hell did you manage that? I remember when VZW was axing unlimited data for upgrades, but then they decided that they were going to take EVERYONE's unlimited plans, including the grandfathered plans.
[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] polo2883:
I have been on this plan for awhile now. Every time I upgraded was through loop holes in their upgrade system. The most recent upgrade to the pixel 2 didn't require us to change plans to the newest unlimited plan. I also still get the $20 off per unlimited data line. So we are only paying $29.95 for our unlimited data line.

[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] sublimaze:
So THAT is why all of my earbuds & headphones sound like sh!t.
[Google Pixel 2 Guides, News, & Discussion] Telperion:
Pretty much, yes. Sound analysis of the Google DAC shows that it's actually a fantastic value, it produces very good sound for the price, but the digital gain on the DAC is at 100% by default which ruins the sound quality. 77% is the preferred level, it's the highest amount of gain that doesn't produce any distortion.

It's night and day, drove me crazy until I found the fix.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MACkjam:
As we all know, the TyTN II has some battery issues.

I have discovered the following:

1. I installed and started using MS Voice Command v1.6. Firstly, bluetooth headset didn't work, secondly it drained the battery faster than you can say battery. It is IMMENSELY resource intensive.

2. I proceeded to install Cyberon Voice Command. This ACTUALLY worked beautifully, even bluetooth headset was sweet.....alas, same battery drain problem.

I installed one at a time, then uninstalled and installed the other in case there are some of you who love exercises in the bleeding obvious.

My TyTN II now has no voice command app and my device only uses about 2-3% in standby mode overnight. Before it used to be around 87/88% the following morning!!!!!

Food for thought?
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] LGB:
I have the drain problem, seriously, and I don't have any voice software installed, besides the voice recorder and the Cyberon Voice Speed Dial that comes installed as default (unless it is another default and hidden/unknown to me).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kimandsteve:
So let me get this right. When u started to use voice commander the battery drained real fast, and when you uninstalled it and didnt use it, the battery didn't drain????
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MACkjam:
Explanation...

Not only when using the app. The app runs in memory when not in use. This background process really chews battery power. MS Voice Command uses 1,5Mb ram in the background, but Cyberon Voice Command uses 163Kb ram in the background, but both chew up battery equally even when idle.

When I uninstalled these apps, the battery usage was back to normal.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] smads:
It would really help those with a problem what your power draw is. Install Batterystatus and give us an idea on what your mA usage is.

If people are getting significant battery drain, they should return their unit for replacement. In standby mode the kaiser would be drawing no more than 10-15mA. In mild usage, 150-250 mA and with all the bells and whistles running between 300-475 mA.

rgds

Stuart
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MACkjam:
Thanks for that. I have just installed Batterystatus and my power draw just out of standby is 13mA and mild usage around 120mA - 240mA, but generally around 120mA.

I haven't tested it with bells and whistles yet. (I haven't found a place to hang these on the device....hahahaha, just kidding)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] redsrule2500:
:D hahaha that was hilarious for some reason.

Also, I think my PREVIOUS AT&T Tilt had this problem, as it would get noticeably hotter than my current Tilt. (returned it for a refurb to save $$$)

The only time I noticed a weird battery drain/usage problem was when I was talking on the phone for 2 hours w/ speakerphone...even having it plugged into USB it slowly drained power from 12% to 6%! Is that normal?!
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jay2TheRescue:
I have seen as high as 700mA draw, but that was running HSDPA, WiFi, GPS, and conducting a 3G voice call over bluetooth. However, when everything is put to sleep I only have a 1% to 2% loss overnight in standby mode.

-Jay
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] shortyboy:
biggest drain i found was the HSDPA connection...if im not using it i turn off my internet connection...im on my second day on 1 charge and im now at 28%.10 calls/day with ocasional web browsing...
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] GSLEON3:
Are you using a hacked version of MSVC??? I bought mine from MS & I only lose about 3% overnight while connected to the net & still getting my push BBerry messages + MSVC worked right out of the gate for me.

Hell with MSVC while posting right now on a 3G connection my draw is -202mA. 700mA draw sounds like GPS + BT & even then I'm not that high.

[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] cajunflavoredbob:
I've been researching and trying to sort this out on my own for a while now. I've turned up nothing, so I figured I'd ask for some help. I'll try to provide as much information as possible here.

I was attempting to unlock and root my Razer Phone from my Windows PC. I plugged it in and had it recognized over ADB with no issue. I sent "adb reboot bootloader" to start things off. Once it was in download mode, I sent the "fastboot -i 0x1532 devices" command to make sure it was recognized. It wasn't. I checked devices manager, and sure enough, it was not picking up the Google driver that every other device I own works with. I attempted to update the driver manually by pointing it to the inf file. It gave me an error stating that the driver is not designed to work with 64-bit Windows. I found that odd, as this is the exact same driver that I've used with my other devices for this stuff. I plugged in my HTC 10, since that was nearby. It was recognized via fastboot like it always was. Same cable I was using with the Razer and everything.

I booted to Linux Mint on the same machine and tried the same stuff. It would pick up the Razer only in fastboot, but not ADB. In fastboot, I could detect it with "fastboot -i 0x1532 devices", and it showed up just fine. When I attempted to run "fastboot -i 0x1532 flashing unlock" it just gave me the fastboot command reference list. (I don't have a screenshot, but it looked like this, in case you're unsure what I am referring to.) I rebooted back to the system and double checked that I had checked "Enable OEM Unlock", and I had done that already. I double checked everything with my HTC 10, and again, it all works fine on the HTC 10. ADB and fastboot are both recognized correctly on Linux.

So armed with this information, I moved over to my Linux server. I used a different cable this time, and got a similar result. The Razer phone was recognized over ADB and I was able to get into fastboot. Once there, it was detected with the fastboot devices command. I attempted to run the unlock command, and again was presented with the fastboot reference list as before. Double checked with the HTC 10, and all was workign fine with that device.

Does anyone have any ideas, or is it possible that it's the Razer phone that's the problem? I may have access to a Mac laptop later on, and I could attempt this from there, but this is getting nuts. I don't think I've ever had this much trouble getting into a device before.
[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] mikeandjaimie:
Yeah I had this as well, basically you may have the latest drivers but are missing the latest adb/Fastboot executables. Apparently they have changed a few commands in the newer one and that way of unlocking isn't in the old version. Just google for the adb/Fastboot package from the Google site, can remember the exact name but it was the first hit on Google. I just extracted the whole zip to a directory and used it right from there. The reason you are getting the help screen from Fastboot is cause for that version at least, your giving it an illegal command.

I got the same problem till I put my usb in a usb 2.0 in the back of the pc in a highlight usb port witch I read after on Asus Website that suppose to charge your phone if you turn off your pc so basically a always on usb. Also I managed to unlock and brick my device only with one cable I tried 4 cables none of them worked .so for you to keep In mind

Try different cables

Try usb 2.0

Try driver from twrp for razer phone thread that worked for me
[Razer Phone Questions & Answers] cajunflavoredbob:
Seems to be an ongoing issue for me on my main desktop. I grabbed my old development laptop out of the closet, booted it up, and I was able to get everything recognized and working. I tried doing some more work this morning on my desktop and noticed that I'm having driver issues elsewhere, so it seems to be an issue with this machine. I'm still not sure why the Linux installation on the same machine was exhibiting the same issue, though.

Hi all,

I've tried to do a fair bit of digging, but I've come to realize I'm in a fairly unique position.

So to start it all, I wanted to play with some new roms. I installed a few but had weird issues, which I now understand it was due to having the wrong kernel. So I went to flash a newer kernel but ran into issues..

Now my phone ONLY get into download and bootloader page, can't get into recovery nor does it go into any rom which means I can't turn on USB debugging. Ontop of that, my bootloader is locked, when I go through the standard process via the HTC website, get my unlock token and fastboot it. My device gets stuck at the "Use volume buttons and press power to select" part of the process. Sometimes I can highlight yes, but when I press the power button to select, it freezes and reboots shortly after and thus the great loop continues. I can't flash anything else because it says bootloader is locked etc.

When running Firefox on the stock rom, the status bar turns white while the text remains white so that the time, date, signal, and other status bar items are unreadable. I tried changing the system themes and the Firefox themes without any change. Is there any other possible solution to force the status bar to any color other than white with Firefox? I guess I could use an unofficial build, but I wanted to try out the play store version for a while.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
This is a known Firefox bug, and they are working on it. If you must use Firefox, install the beta version, which will give the fix a little quicker.

Firefox is my favorite browser on desktops. But, It's still a little too buggy for me on Android.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] dweekie:
Thanks, I guess I'll have to be patient since the beta and nightlies exhibit the same result.

I thought Firefox Focus was great and wanted to try Firefox Quantum across the platforms after years of using mainly Chrome. Chrome for Android still freezes and crashes on pages with heavy ads (including ESPN), and it has been that case for years. I'm still not sure why....
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Did you update to 5.8.21s ?

If so force close the browser and clear the cache in the browser app settings

Also try the stock browser, it's pretty decent.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] sk8223:
I tried ESPN and it works just fine. I've got a Pro3 Elite (x722) with a SD820 on 20s (a cleaned vendor ROM from Banggood). Then again, I've uninstalled all LeEco apps, save for Phone and Contacts, and I'm running Adguard for adblocking. You really need VPN adblocking, my friend. It will revolutionize the way you browse on mobile. And I'm not talking about uBlock Origin on Firefox for Android, which isn't always reliable (sometimes it simply doesn't load).

Either that, or try a browser that supports adblockers natively, like Samsung Internet. Firefox Quantum on desktop is great--I'm using it right now, but FF for Android sucks. You can try Waterfox, a popular fork of Firefox. It has an Android app too.
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] dweekie:
I'm on 21s. The Chrome freezing bug has been recurring for years as far as I can remember, through my Nexus 4, 5, 6, and 6P. I think adblocking helped, but it still freezes regularly on some sites.

I installed AdGuard Premium and am still testing it (page loading delays and errors, battery, whitelisting, etc). I may just break down and root this phone to compare to Adaway for fun. I've been hesitant to try custom roms as I prefer maximum battery life over other benefits.

LeEco was a slight deviation and a breath of fresh air for battery life. It's just annoying to have merely a few months of software support from the company.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
[LeEco Le Pro3 Questions & Answers] tsongming:
Adaway is pretty fantastic. In fact, I haven't seen ads since installing it. You do a have a few options for ad blocking without rooting: Brokada is excellent, and blocks Ads in apps as well. But, you will see the occasional ad.

Another non root option is Ad Clear, which places a firewall on IPV6. I haven't used AdGuard premium, is there no where in the settings for filter addons/updates or firewall blocking?

If you decide root the phone, be very careful if you haven't gone through extended steps of unlocking the bootloader. As you know, you could brick your device.

If you decide to go for it. I recommend AICP, or Omnirom both will give you continued long battery life, and allows you to use the Pixel Modded camera with zero issues.

If you need help with unlocking your bootloader, rom installation and rooting, let me know and I can send you detailed instructions. Just so you know once you unlock the bootloader and install Twrp, the rest is easy and you can always return to stock if wanted.
