I rooted using the CF Auto method or whatever it was last week to try playing Hearthstone on my Note 4, however now my phone gets significant lag issues (screen locks up for 3-4 seconds every 5 minutes or so) and even stuttering while playing music over Spotify. Any ideas?
I uninstalled Xposed and the App Settings module to see if that would fix it, but it hasn't.

hi,
i had similar and other experiences with Xposed and lag issue. (in past month) I have found that Xposed can break certain apps (when installing etc.. Shealth.. Play store, Samsung store, Private mode, and cause lag.
You must take into account that Xposed was last updated even before Note 4 was released.(?) So to me its not fully optimised? for Note 4?
However, I also found that Xposed broke certain apps.. even after i uninstalled it! eg.. My Play store was working fine with Xposed (Patched./fixes applied) and after i uninstalled Xposed i suddenly couldn't install apps from Play store! I was so fed trying to "fix" Play store etc... i just flashed my latest Official Rom over it..(All problems fixed!) So it could be Xposed that was original cause of your lag?.. even if you have uninstalled it? I have also found after uninstalling Xposed, some other module's functions are still present and i can still use it!
Just a pointer, maybe it helps?
good luck
Search the forum. It is S-Health, that causes lags, because it uses Secure Storage, which is not working with root. But there is a good news! There is already fix for it in custom kernels and XPosed Framework (search for SHealth in modules). You can use either.

I tried searching a bit, but wasn't finding any results for what little I knew. Sorry about that. Thanks a bunch for the help. Will simply disabling S Health solve the issues since I don't use it anyways?
Edit: Just realized you mentioned a solution also within the Xposed framework, I'll try that! Sorry, I'm pretty tired haha

hi ,
yes, i think @Zer0r means the XsecureStorage module ( Wanam )
http://repo.xposed.info/module/ma.wanam.xshealth
Just to point out that maybe you overlooked an important fact and that is you still have the lag issue after ........uninstalling Xposed ?
thus Xposed must have "broken" something ? in process ? for you to have lag after uninstalling Xposed ?
to fix you now have to install Xposed again.(thus a temporally fix ????)
When i had Xposed installed and used XsecureStorage module it fixed my Shealthapp ( i had no lag ,so it was not an issue to me ) but it did not fix my Private mode .(So to me its a hit and miss )
Good luck
You can either install the secure storage xposed mod or edit your buildprop and change secure storage to false

hi,
thank you for your input, but i do know all relevant fixes.. (including your one.) Done them in past. Bottom line
I am not to interested if Private mode works or not..!
The point i am trying to bring across is that Xposed is not 100% optimised
for Note 4 and keeps on breaking various apps!
I have Xposed installed on my Note 3./.Note 2../ Note 8.0 (tab) and my HTC one X, no problems at all on any of these devices! My Note 4 i had Xposed installed on and off, since October this year.. so i do know Xposed very, very well! and relevant patches.
Bottom line is
if the dev. manages to optimise Xposed for lollipop (ART) i will install Xposed again! So i do fancy/like Xposed but is not so hardup to use it, (if it breaks so many apps and you have to patch it.)
This is my message i am try to bring across. with Xposed.. but then its your choice to install or not.?
thanks for your input and good luck
Lesson here is don't use xposed unless u do 5 minutes of reading first on how to use it with this phone. Been using it correctly since launch day, why...... cause I didn't just install it, I read what was suppose to be done before and after it is installed. Sorry just really sick of seeing the countless posts about this. There should be a sticky about xposed, but people would still fail to see it.
Before you even install xposed you should:
1. With titanium backup, freeze health service, private mode, and s health. Wipe data for those apps as well.
2. Edit build prop:
ro.build.selinux to 0 if you have a permissive kernel or want to flash one.
ro.config.knox to 0
ro.config.tima to 0
ro.securestorage.support to false
3. Reboot
4.install xposed, install framework, reboot.
5. Install Wanam 3.2.5,( do Not install newest 3.2.6 as there is something wrong with it, causes reboots while hanging at the startup system update process), go into security hacks and tick disable secure storage, and reboot.
6. In titanium backup, unfreeze health service, private mode, and s health.
7. Reboot and enjoy
I've even done this with skipping some of the reboots and been fine, but just to make sure you have no problems, do everything as written. And yes I know I edit other things in the build prop which is really overkill.

So u uninstalled xposed and are not installing it again because u don't want to do a lil bit of work after a fresh install, despite all the pluses it brings? I find it so useful that I probably won't upgrade to 5.0 until xposed is compatible unless xposed will never be compatible.

hi
thanks for you input ,
No ,i think maybe you "misinterpret" my last post ?( I did read up and follow correct Guidelines availeable .)
I stated that i know Xposed quite well and have installed Xposed all my other devices ..no problem etc .
On my Note 4 I have installed Xposed "on and off " since October (maybe 3 or 4 times ? i don't really know .)
Overall Xposed work well, no problems ,its just "sooner or later" an app would break !
eg . after using Xposed for a while( week or so )my Play store " broke"..could'nt install and have to apply fixes /patches all over again ( freeze S health / Install Xposed again /clear Shealth data etc etc )
other instant was using Xposed for a while my 'Samsung store " app broke .......!
Had to apply fixes/patches all over again ....!
I had my Private mode working in most of these cases ,but lost interest in hiding apps ..for what ?
I don't keep no "sensitive " stuff etc. on my device ,so don't really have any need for it .
As i am looking more forward to flash "Lollipop" onto my device ,i am not so "interested "
to keep Xposed on my Note 4 .( for every now and then ,for something to break and then apply fixes , after a while that was my experiences .)
Also i believe Xposed is not fully "optimised " for our Note 4 ..as i stated(/reason) , in my previous post above.
So if you chose to have Xposed on your device ,happy with it ,its your choice . (,i have no problem with that )
( i am also overall a " fan/supporter " of Xposed )
its just that my Note 4 is tweaked / running ... very smooth and i have no complaints/issues about... ..battery /lag or anything in paticular .
Good luck
I just updated to Lollipop yesterday, and my phone has been having issues with Google Play Services since then. Once the phone had updated, I got notifications saying that it needed to be updated. I started the update and then the phone froze and restarted.
I currently have Google Play Services 6.6.03 (1681564-876) on my phone - but I don't think this is good for Lollipop. No apps that require play services will work, and the battery is draining very quickly. Anyone know how to uninstall this version and install the proper one (whichever that may be)? I don't have this phone rooted. When I try to change any settings with the app, it says that it does not have permission to do so - meaning I can't deactivate or uninstall updates.
Any help would be great!

Just an FYI I had some problems with the google play service crashing after the update to 5.0. I fixed it by installing the google play service from here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-google-play-services-t2795911
I used the "320 DPI, armeabi-v7a CPU & Android" version if that helps.
Good luck.

I gave it a shot, but it wouldn't work. It just says app did not install when I try. I tried using the link from apk mirror, but it was the same version that you recommended.
I assume you have enable unknown sources in settings?
Yeah, I've had them enabled.
Clear cache for Google Play Store and Google Play Services. Reboot then follow the prompt to update again. Worked for me yesterday.

hi ,
First you give very little info about your device ?
are you rooted , what Rom (stock Rom Android v 4.4.4 /5.0.1 ) etc ?
One issue i had ( Lollipop v 5.0.1 ) with APK's not installing, was not correct Play Services apk installed ( not the Play store apk )What i did was to check and see if i updated/correct version Google Play services ( apk ) as this can cause issues .( i Google around ..searched XDA to see what correct version was etc ) Did this and sorted problem .
Another issue i had when Apk'S not installing, was Xposed module causing errors .
When i had this error ( unable to install apk ) was way back, when i was still on Android v 4.4.4 and using Xposed framework .I am not sure if it was Xposed or an module of Xposed ,( i was using) .I solved it by uninstalling Xposed (which really only helped a little )The problem with Xposed is that it caused a lot of "problems/errors " when installed and even afterwards ,when uninstalled, as it can " break " certain functions on your device ( This is my experience )
I just factory resetted my device , but this did not help also ..so i flashed my device (then) current Rom) and managed to sort it out .
Good luck

Hi XDA,
Phone: OnePlus One Pro 8
Model: IN2025
OS: Oxygen OS 11.IN11AA
Magisk:1469b82a (21101)
I recently rooted my phone and it works quite well, I have used Magisk Hide to 'hide root from my banking apps', it works so does NFC and google pay.
I hide the following service through magisk hide: (Banks, Google Play Game, Google Play Services, an authenticator (Duo Mobile))
1) However, I don't seem to be able to install some games from google playstore, namely : Eve Echoes, World of Warships, Warpath ..all of them download but give the error "Can't install, try again"
Is there a work around?
2) On a side note: is apkpure a trusted website (they seem to have APKs for everything)?
Thank you!
Cheers,
DV

I'm not sure about why google play won't work, probably you can try to wipe data and cache of the Google Play services and google play store and maybe that would work?
I have the apkpure app and it works beautifully, it updates my apps and games faster than the app store and even beta version you can find there. I mainly use apkpure so I can download games and apps that are "not available in my region"

@dvartak May sound stupid, but does the Play Store app has storage access ? I had the same message when using microg and the Play Store, I wasn't able to install any "big" app until I gave the storage permission.

Yes, it does. I can install big games and apps. I can install Genshin impact and other games(offline), which is why I am perplexed as to why others won't install.

That's bizarre never heard of it
Can I ask, have you got the dreaded lucky patcher installed?
If not then might be time to clear down play services, play store, play games etc, sign out - sign in
Try pushing the game by saying you want to install it via the web.
Go here and sign in, then find the game, choose your phone and itll push to your device, don't let the play store open the link
https://play.google.com/store
What modules do you have installed??

The only thing I have installed is systemless. I tried installing magiskhide props config to see if it helped; it did not, so I uninstalled it.
On the web, it says 'installed', but it isn't.
EDIT: I tried with another gmail account, reinstalling google play games.
Other online games such as Clash of Clans seem to work, so does Among Us and Genshin Impact.
The ones that don't work that I have tried: Eve Echoes, WarPath and World of Warships < All of these show up as installed on the web (but aren't installed on any android device that I own).
Eve Echoes downloads starts installing and gives the error unable to install.
Can some one who is rooted try if these games will work.
ok, one more interesting update: Netflix app seems to work, I thought it shouldn't work on rooted phones.

Ill try them, see what I get, not my types of games but sure np.
Must have detected root.
I think it's the game detecting it, not your system. Or Google play won't allow the installation if you're rooted on those games.
I'll try them now.
Seems to be working for me..that's warpath.. Installed then verified in game. I have play protect off
This is my version of magisk on canary.
Edit: Image uploads not working on the app.

You could maybe change to canary then update, will need to repatch and update magisk manager. It's easy, no need for ADB

Head back to the normal magisk screen.
You'll see two install/update buttons
Top is magisk
Bottom is magisk manager
Update the manager, it'll download,, then click install.
Next click magisk then install directly
Reboot and you're done .
PS: have your original magisk patched img ready just in case but I've done this a LOT and have never had an issue, so you'll be fine.

One quick question, should I disable magisk hide (settings) and systemlesshosts before doing this ?
EDIT:
a) ok so I tried this, I disabled the magisk hide before attempting this, it detected my magiskpatch during direct install. When the phone rebooted things were a bit slow and my internet was not working. Another reboot and everything was fast again, but no luck with Warpath.
b) Tried to clear cache and storage for playstore and google play games. Shutdown the phone, started it again.
No luck.
c) I downloaded APKPure to try and download 'Warpath', it downloaded but would not proceed with installation., I had to manually click install APK.>The game starts and asks to download additional files..., files are downloaded and it fails to install.
In the grand scheme of things it would be great if I could install everything, I can get by with not installing these games. I fear that this might an issue with others apps as well although so far I have not encountered any problems.
Any other things I could try ?
2) On another note, I wanted to know how I could backup my active partition (just incase I want to try things and something breaks).
3) This might not be related at all, I noticed that my root folder (using solid explorer) shows 0B free of 1.42 GB. Is this normal that the root folder is completely full ?
Thanks!

Yes it's tthat's similar to mine. It's possible that that's the problem but I've not witnessed that before, maybe it is the problem.
Ok so it seems were running low on fixes here..it's almost certainly a permissions issue, maybe the system space? I'm guessing!
Have you tried to mount namespace??
Did you hide magisk manager? Unhide it. Btw I don't mean magisk hide I mean the manager, then reboot.
I'm not sure if there is a way to reset all permissions to apps including Android system apps but that would be my next step.
Beyond that, remove modules and wipe system in recovery, it'll be you're system, apps, settings, but storage will remain, it's what I do if I need to start over as system is where 90% of issues reside.. You will need to fastboot boot the magisk patched img then directly install after.
If it's not that then it's a deeper problem and even though it's just a few games at the moment it won't fix itself, so without a tonne of troubleshooting then it'll be MSM or full zip restoring. Probably MSM though as you'll get fresh everything.
Hang on your internet didn't work??
That's a sign that you're using a boot.img from the previous firmware??
That could be the problem. Re download you're firmware using oxygen updater mate.
Open settings /advanced
Then download the full zip.

Apologies for not being clear.
My wifi was connected there was just no data transfer.
The only magisk patch I have is from the large file that the phone/oxygen OS downloaded to get me OS 11. You helped me on my other thread.
