ios devices allow 2-3 accounts everytime u restore the device
[Xposed Framework Modules] whiteFragility:
Was just wondering how difficult (or even how feasible) it is to do something similar but for iOS...cracking an IPA to achieve similar features with this?
[Xposed Framework Modules] rodman55:
Well you'd obviously need to be jailbroken and thats becoming much more difficult these days than android root
[Xposed Framework Modules] bleuflux:
Hi, I am using LSPatch (an alternative for non-root LSPosed) and I keep getting the "Something went wrong, please try again" when I try to log in. I've tried the Grindr Plus version 8.20 and 8.21 with the corresponding Grindr version. Not sure how to get it to work or which versions will work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
Here is an update for version 8.22.0-108721

NOTE: This version DOES NOT have the experiments enabled and I also do not have the extra profile fields added in right now. This was somewhat a quick update and I have not finished but for those getting pushed the update for 8.22.0 build 108721 this will work for that version.

Most things here are working such as the mock location, unlimited taps, unlimited expiring photos and all that. I was getting errors for the extra profile fields even when I did get them to show up. Those errors are sent to grindr through the app so i commented out that feature for right now until I have further time to look into it. I did not even get a chance to check the experiments, so I commented those out too. I'm sorry if someone will miss those at the moment but I've been a bit busy with holiday and life as of late.

I did not remove any code that ElJaviLuki put in here, I simply commented out sections I have not been able to look into for the moment.

Again this is not an official build by ElJaviLuki but it is his code and his work simply updated for Grindr 8.22.0-108721, the same as has been done previously. Grindr seems to be running quite well with this version, but results can vary with different devices.

I think we are getting close to Grindr forcing an update for 8.17.1 which was the last official release that ElJaviLuki put out an official release for, so if I am unable to finish the other parts before that happens, perhaps it will be fixed by ElJaviLuki himself, but I am only guessing about that part.

I hope everyone is doing well and safe and healthy.

Best regards

~Robbie Techie
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
Have you tried disabling the mod then logging just to see what happens without the mod active?

The mod is designed for systems based on Xposed which is designed to work with rooted devices. I am unfamiliar with LSPatch but if it is not based off of Xposed that could be why it is not working for you.

I would try logging in with the mod disabled and if you are able to login without the mod, then re-enable it and try again.

If you were not previously logged in, perhaps something is preventing part of the login process from working properly. Grindr does write to a shared prefs folder /data/data/com.grindrapp.android/shared_prefs so perhaps between LSPatch and the mod, something is not getting processed properly.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I'm not sure if anyone is being pushed this version yet, but there is version 8.23.0 build 109418 out there....

This is the same as the last except I did check and enable experiments, which you won't visibly notice at most times. The last version I built and posted here did not have those enabled as I did not have time to double check.

Just as before this is ElJaviLuki's work and code simply updated for the version 8.23.0 build 109418 that I mentioned above. Video calls on empy chats and extra profile fields are not included, everything else should work properly. Again I did not remove that code and simply commented it out so it won't be run in this version of this release.

I did not put in a pull request for this on Github as I don't feel this version was complete. But again, perhaps @ElJaviLuki could deal with that, as I ran across a null exception for param[0] null pointer exception in the previous version. I feel that I'm overlooking something but have not really taken a detailed look into what I'm missing or overlooking

I did update the color codes for the gold and pure white though:

object R {

private const val _R = Constants.GRINDR_PKG

const val color = "$_R.m0"

object color_ {

const val grindr_gold_star_gay = "D"

const val grindr_pure_white = "T"

}

}

Personally I would hold off on this version unless it gets pushed to you, but that is up to each person to decide....

I hope everyone is doing well and safe and healthy...

Hey i have been meaning to ask about the possible device ban that may come using this mod, how likely am i to get banned?, or if i were to get banned can i get another account on the same phone?
[Xposed Framework Modules] no_nam:
I suppose your phone number or email used for verification will get banned, rather than the phone itself
[Xposed Framework Modules] no_nam:
I would like to report, that "Viewed Me" section is still locked, only the first profile works
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I don't think it is meant to show you all the viewers, that is more or less controlled on the server. I think it was meant to browse profiles without you showing in their viewed me list but still being able to view which ever version of the viewed me list is normally there. If you are free you get the one viewer, if you are subbed for it they all show up.

For some reason, when I disable the show me toggle with the mod active it still says that I have viewed me disabled.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
You are welcome, it's sad that the current owners have mad this app all but unusable with the desperation for pushing so many ads to people, the programmers and company seem rather clueless about their own users right now....
[Xposed Framework Modules] neo_lithic3K:
Yup I agree. I do use an ad blocker so I don't see any ads at all.
[Xposed Framework Modules] no_nam:
What adblocker do you use? I use old original minminguard, but it does not work anymore on grindr.
[Xposed Framework Modules] no_nam:
I think the server does send all profiles to the client, as they are shown with pictures, but they are blurred and can not be opened.

[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I have a question/would like feedback from those that use the Xposed mod for Grindr Plus.

I know some of you have accidentally updated to 9.17.4, The updates are not all working in the Mod for 9.17.4 but a decent bit of them are, so I consider the update for 9.17.4 not finished but usable.

The block notifications in chat work now. They were only working when someone else blocked/unblocked you, but now it seems both sides are working.

Saved phrases saved locally work

Unlimited grid is working.

Invasive analytics have been disabled again.

I believe the old profile design is still an option but have to check a bit more on that. That means the profile ID field can still be an option at this point.

A friend helped with blocking the updates and has made it more functional to prevent being forced to update

You can mock locations if you're rooted still

I don't believe unlimited taps work, but I'll have to check on that.

Currently the preventing the viewed me portion is not operational, but that's being looked into more.

Having the option to always remove/unsend messages is not currently working.

Taking screenshots is still working

I'm unsure about the making video calls even if you haven't chatted is functional

I would still have to tie up some sections of code and tidy things up a bit on my side before sharing this. I'm not sure how many of you ended up on 9.17.4 on accident, should I share it as is or update more before release? I have a feeling they will be updating again soon, as it's been a month today, but I have no idea when the next update will be released by them honestly.

Feedback on this please. Thoughts? Questions?

SEASONS GREETINGS!

I would just like to wish everybody a Jolly Yuletide, a Sumptuous Saturnalia, a Replenishing Solstice, and a Happy (last nights of) Hannukah. And if you celibrate Christmas in December, I'm sure it will be fine.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Thanks2You:
Thoughts - thanks for the effort first and foremost! I'm on 9.17.3 but taking a break from Grindr until the new year while visiting family. If you posted it, caveated with the list of what's working/what's not, then if people were forced to update they have an option to try over the holidays. You'll very likely still get the 'waah waah' feedback about things not working perfectly, but you know most of us appreciate what's posted and do read the caveats. ( A 9.17.4 with the caveats would still be better than a 9.17.4 without the mod IMO, but I'll be on 9.17.3 until forced to update next year. )

Ultimately a lot of words to say do what you think best!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Jvlc:
I'm still on 9.17.2 and will not update to 9.17.4 unless the mod is fully working or Grindr forces us to update. But thanks for asking, I appreciate your effort and dedication!
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I have a feeling I will end up updating 9.17.3 a little further with the update blocking as it's been improved somewhat and adjust the feature processing as I mentioned with genesis89 when he brought up the shadow-banning.

This will disable the incognito portion as it does not actually function properly. ElJaviLuki had mentioned that it does not work properly and is buggy. It won't actually make someone disappear from the grid, but it tries to turn on automatically.

I've noticed that I don't get as much interaction from users unless I go into the settings right away and press the Online button. That may help a bit with his issue and really should have been done some time ago. If I do post 9.17.4 I will will add notes about it's status. I'll wait for a bit more feedback but most likely just keep working on 9.17.4 to get it more functional.

I hope both of you that responded have a great day!!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] alive505:
Hi Robbie and echoing the thanks above!

I am using 9.17.3 at the moment and it works perfectly for me so I will stay on this until they disable it server side and force a newer version. And I don't think it's worth your effort to release a newer version that has problems, while the older versions are still working perfectly. So my personal recommendation is for you to continue enjoying your break but whatever you decide me and most others here will be appreciative!

But that said I am always happy to help with any testing that might be needed of new versions or features.

I can also confirm that the incognito bit has never worked properly. My observation is that is starts off disabled with a fresh install as expected, but when incognito is manually turned on, the only effect it has is setting your last seen/online state to "offline" when other users look at your profile from the favorites grid. You still show up in their main grid with the green online dot as normal even though incognito is supposed to hide you from showing up at all.

Thanks as ever ❤️
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
Thank you for the feedback. I do think I will hold off on releasing 9.17.4 and continue to improve it. I will likely update 9.17.3 a little more and should be able to prevent the force updates, but I have not ran into it trying to force update yet, so I can't say for certain it will work perfectly but it should.

I will likely finish the prevent updates bit and remove the incognito bit I mentioned, before releasing 9.17.4. That will buy a bit more time if needed and if people using 9.17.3 wish to use the updated versions, of course they will be able to.

I do think I remember you mentioned that about incognito a while ago, back then I wasn't aware of how to turn that off as now I know how that can be done. Thank you for the reminder of this working that way. You are welcome and thank you for the feedback!!! I hope you guys are all doing well!!!

I've been looking for a tweak to mock my location on Grindr for months, but didn't except to find the solution here. LOL

Thanks, boys!
[Xposed Framework Modules] xk3v1lx:
Works 🥰

But profile view LOST
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
What do you exactly mean by profile view?
[Xposed Framework Modules] matias08:
I need help, I just changed devices and I can't find how to root it to be able to use grindr plus.I wanted to try lspatch but it doesn't open, Could someone help me compile the application?
[Xposed Framework Modules] xk3v1lx:
Profile view is resigned with frame

And re-organized for best view

I returned 9.17.3 for showing SCR

profile view:

With 9.17.4 and your G plus

It lost:
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
This is an xposed module and is designed for a rooted phone. You can use edXposed if your device is that old, or LSPosed, which is pretty much recommended.

If you want help with root, look under the section for your phone. Many of the phone forums have root guides for your particular device. This thread is about the Grindr Plus Mod If you do not have a rooted device the mod will not operate properly and YOU WILL run into issues.

As I stated a while ago, after coming back from my break, I have zero plans on offering assistance here with lspatch stuff as this is an Xposed module which requires root for proper functionality. As I stated before, if the forum is flooded again with stuff about lspatch in an Xposed module forum, meaning this one, I won't be pushing as many updates. I can't speak for anyone else, only myself. I know the original author also does not support lspatch and has stated such on the issues section of his github.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
SURPRISE!!! You're welcome. I'm pretty sure Roger would say the same!!
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I'm not really sure what you mean with this statement either, I apologize. When you say "profile view LOST" are you saying you don't want this view and you liked the old view that lines between the info.

If you wanted the added info and that is what you don't like, that is being worked on. Roger has fixed that somewhat for the new view. I'm not sure if he plans on adding more info or not as I cannot speak for him. There are a few things before this will be complete but I can say he does good work and I trust him with the updates.

The redesigned view will probably be ithe default layout in the app soon and we won't be able to go back to the old design. I believe it is an option still but we are still working on parts of 9.17.4.

I don't know if or when they will make the new view the only view available, but I have a feeling that is what they plan to do. I'm not a big fan of the new view, but Roger has been able to update it, which is great. I think you probably have the update from before this was worked on, but he has been able to show the profile ID again and it does work. Was that what you mean when you said it is lost is the old design is not in there?
[Xposed Framework Modules] qtotter:
It's not not a major issue, but if it's used on a tablet, the buttons on the bottoms of the app like 👿🗨️⭐ are really tiny. Pls see the attached screenshot. Great jobs, tho. Thx😉
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
That's... very weird. I don't recall changing anything for the UI to show up like that. What phone are you using?​
[Xposed Framework Modules] qtotter:
It's not a phone but a tablet, Lenovo Tab 6. But I have changed the ROM (GSI) and also the font size, etc. The app showed the buttons in the appropriate size before installing this mod on LSPosed, but it's not really critical in using the app. The benefits are far more important than this little UI issue to me!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
I see. I guess that makes sense then. I'll try running the mod on one of my tablets and see if anything can be done about it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
You will need to install "Hide Mock Location" for LSPosed. Enable it with Grindr then Change Location App will work with Grindr.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
Much appreciated for your work. I want to give feedback. When using your mod, if I browse profiles with multiple display pictures, while swiping to see these pictures, Grindr crashes. This issue didn't happen with RobbieTechie's Mod version.

So I switched back to 9.17.3 (RobbieTechie's Mod - No issues at all) and wait for the more stable mod. Maybe it is just my device.:)
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
He stated he found the solution here and was surprised about it, so I would imagine he means the Grindr Plus mod.

People shouldn't need to install anything when using the mod! so I'm not sure why you told him that. Part of the mod is the ability to use mock locations, and it makes grindr believe there is no mock location being used or set. I've never had to use or hide anything to use mock locations.

Depending on which version of android you are on, there is a check for isFromMockProvider and the newer versions of Android use isMock to check for mock location use. The mod deals with both situations so it doesn't matter if you are on Android 6 (The oldest grindr runs on) up to Android 14 and all versions between those. What you told him he "will need" to do is NOT a needed step unless you are on some odd setup from a normal Android operating system.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
Then I misunderstood. I thought he got in trouble because Grindr didn't allow using Mock location. At least that was the solution I am using right now.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
I don't believe this is a problem with his Mod. After I read this, I just used his mod, which currently has more features fixed than my version. I found multiple profiles with multiple pictures and was able to browse them just fine. When swiping they all loaded just fine and there were no crashes. I also checked for errors with logcat, and no errors of any kind showed up, his mod is just fine and working well.

Grindr changed quite a bit of code, so there very well could be an issue with grindr running properly on certain devices, that has also been an issue in the past. I would expect they will have bugs for a few new versions until they iron out the code.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
They way I understood was that he is surprised he found a way to get mock locations to work with grindr here, but there's always the possibility I was wrong, I am human after all, I mean I'm pretty sure I am 😂

Can you not mock you're location without that setup? And do you use anything such as a custom rom? Perhaps that interfers in some way.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
First, much appreciated for your work also. ;)

Besides Grindr, I also use other Gay apps like Jack'd, and Growl. So using an external changing location app is more convenient for me.
[Xposed Framework Modules] RobbieTechie:
That makes sense. Well if it works for you then I don't think you have anything to worry about.

Might I ask your opinion of the other apps? I have a feeling Grindr is sinking quick. I notice more and more profiles disappearing in my area the regulars are less frequent.

A former employee stated they are trying to scam any penny they can out of any user. He basically said they don't care about user's experience as long as they can get money out of anyone, hence the pushing of the profiles that you didn't use to see on there and the app is reflecting that.

They no longer even have a trust & safety board at grindr he stated, they were first to be cut. Not a wise move in my opinion!
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
In my country (Asia area), Grindr is still one of the most popular Gay apps. Grindr and Jack'd is for general. Growl for Bear. Using these apps in purpose to maximize the chance you meet the right people.

I don't care much if Grindr goes down. If any apps are better or have more people, I will jump there. Right now, Grindr is still (maybe) no.1 (in my country) so I will keep using it.

Somehow, Grindr is more generous than Jack'd because it allows the Free user to filter position (Top, Bottom, Ver-Top...etc) while Jack'd asks for Premium.

The more users a service has, the more it becomes arrogant and doesn't care about the user's experience. Same to Facebook, Google. :) Since most of us here don't want to pay for Grindr (too expensive), just make peace with it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
I just double checked and I don't have that issue. Perhaps you have to clear cache or data or something like that?​
[Xposed Framework Modules] lytic0001:
does anyone know why i sometimes get profiles that are misplaced on my grid. For example, The first profile on my grid will sometimes be 3 or 4 miles out of order (distance). Could this be some sort of random profile slotted as a replacement for someone using incognito?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Thanks2You:
They are folks who have paid the tax to be promoted to the top of the grid.
[Xposed Framework Modules] qtotter:
I tried it before, but Grindr somehow detected I was using a mock location... Maybe, it was not properly enabled on LSPosed...?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Boko1986:
You have to enable it with Grindr also in LSPosed to make it work.
[Xposed Framework Modules] valtar:
I have similar issue, whenever I try to enlarge profile picture (even if it’s just a single one) Grindr will reload. I can leave with that, just don’t want Grindr to see abnormal behavior.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
Mind providing some sort of logs?
[Xposed Framework Modules] valtar:
Sure if anyone will tell me where they are located)
[Xposed Framework Modules] qtotter:
I am experiencing the same. The funny thing is it depends on the photo (or the profile?) It happens on some profiles, doesn't on some other profiles.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Rortiz2:
Just use ADB, adb logcat > log.txt.
[Xposed Framework Modules] lytic0001:
Where/how does a user pay this tax?

I didn't see an offer by grindr for this service
