Xposed will work - Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General

Don't know how I did it. But it's possible.

Small changes.
Proof that Xposed can work. The key is do a soft reboot. Hope this helps.

then how did you do it?

No clue. All I know is that I did soft reboot after installing the frame work. After that every thing fell into place. I do not suggest hard boot. It might not stick.

From how I understand it, unless you put xposed into the system img and flash it, like the guide instructs, the system will eventually overwrite all changes xposed makes.
What you're doing now will work temporarily and not after a hard reboot as your finding. Having it in the system solves that.

correct

I just did hard reboot. Back to square one. but just go back to reinstall xposed and do it all over again. I found the key is soft reboot.

That was extremely rude. He wasn't even being attacking. yes its nice to know that it works but we already knew that (hence the thread we linked you to)
so no its not helpful, but no one was bashing you for it. we were just telling you that it already works AND survives. there is no need to be an ass and bring the level of courtesy and respect on these forums down with comments like that.

I've had xposed working for a few days now, and everything sticks even via hard reboot. I have a couple modules running atm. Just baked it into my own image.

Hof, do us a favor and don't start new threads. Not trying to be mean, it just is not productive.

RyanZa OCLF in Android Market

Apologies in advance if I've posted this in the wrong section of the forum.
I saw RyanZa's OCLF app in the Android Market last night and was stoked because I didn't realize it could be done that way. (Maybe this is actually THE way it's supposed to be done? Shows what I know.)
I just have a few questions and I'm asking them here because all the other threads have outdated info and made me confused.
1 - Just to be clear, running this app roots your Vibrant and applies a lag fix correct? Does it do anything else? It also gives you an easy way to undo the rooting and undo the lag fix?
2 - From the comments in the app market, it sounds like the majority are very happy about their results using this. Is the general consensus that running this app is a no-brainer?
3 - Finally, I read an older thread in the development section and in the "updates" it said that someone else had created a better lagfix that "owns" RyanZa's fix. So, now I'm not sure what "lag fix" is the "right" one to apply.
Thoughts? Comments? And, thank you for any assistance. My phone is still stock and it still just keeps getting better. Getting closer and closer to rooting.

1. Yes, no, yes.
2. I am 120% happy with it. I noticed a BIG difference.
3. Download and run RyanZa lag fix. You will be very happy.
It works really well!
You can root, unroot, apply lag fix, and remove it. The options are great!
Just do it, and be happy!
Thanks for the comments guys.
Are there any tricky parts to the procedure you want to warn me about? I'm assuming that once I download the app and run it there will be an easy to follow step-by-step wizard, but I just know I'll run into something I don't understand. The fear of screwing up my one and only phone is nerve-wracking. <--- newb

I just did this to my phone and the one thing I noticed is that there is no wizard. The need to know the keystrokes for the first step to boot into recovery.
With phone off after first step, hold phone horizontal, press power, volume up and down keys at same time release power key when you see Samsung logo. The remaining steps are straight forward. You do install the features in stages. You'll see when you start doing it. I just did this sitting in a restaurant. Good luck!

It's very easy, and trust me you can't fail at it. Like above said, it's listed in stages. Read what you wish to apply or remove, click on it, reboot, and you're good to go. It's that simple!
It's easy. I just installed it. All you have to do is download EXT2 tools (included with the app) then install the lag fix.
The lag fix is faster and noticeable.
I recommend downloading it

Here's an informative post (Vibrant specific) for Ryanza's app:
http://jjroid.wordpress.com/2010/08/25/one-click-lag-fix-for-samsung-galaxy-s-vibrant/
So, I was rooting (using the OCLF) and I kinda got myself lost between steps and I'm not sure if I'm rooted or not. Is there an easy way to tell whether your phone is rooted or not?
Edit: Nevermind, I went through the process again and I'm pretty sure I successfully rooted since the option to "Root Device 2.1" is now unavailable. Next question, what exactly are these "EXT2 Tools" I'm installing?
Open up the app again. See if "unroot" is an option/enabled, if it is, you're rooted. Another way is to see if there is a new app installed named "superuser permissions" on your phone.

Ah, thank you. Good to know. I assume this is just an app which let you manage what apps/progs have superuser permission... something I should probably never mess with.
Btw, I may not actually understand everything I just did, but I have root on my Vibrant and RyanZa's Lag Fix has been applied.
Quadrant score went from 907 to 2231 in about 20 cautious minutes. Wow, are you kidding?
The fix is great so far, as is this Android development community. Both are highly recommended. Donations are forthcoming. Thanks for having patience with newbs.
One thing I did notice though... I checked the free space and it went from around 1700 of 1900 before the lag fix to about 650 of 850 after. Not sure what to make of that.
Good job on not bricking your phone. I've heard doing this process CAN brick your phone, which makes me scurred poopless!
"Could not copy over data: cp: read error: input output error" Grr. Where are a list of troubleshooting ideas? Nothing happen bad, just didn't stick.

I just did this, it's as easy as clicking the icons and follow the simple instruction. The hardest part is the rebooting step (pushing both the Power & up/down buttons at the same time ). If you can't perform these simple procedures, then your phone deserved to be bricked.
On the serious note, thanks OP for the posting!

[Q] How to Lock up your Nexus one (please read)

I want to demonstrate to someone how the phone can get stuck on something like bootloader or failed rom installations.
I currently have a nexus one with the bootloader still locked (but rooted). I dont want to try anything and render the phone dead. So I want to know if there is a for sure way t put the phone in a mode where it looks as if it doesn't work, yet be able to recover from it easily. Asking for opinions first.
I still want to have my phone maintained such that the bootloader stays locked.
Thanks

Turning the phone off makes it look likes it doesn't work.
P.S why are you doing this though? Really? Is it to make someone think their phone is broken so you can buy it cheap then fix it and keep it?

haha no worries
If i understand what you are asking, try backing up your rom, then flash completely different rom without wiping. That should by all accounts give you a bootloop.
Might be easier to have them watch some youtube vid's of flashing, rooting, unlocking, etc. They then should get the idea...
I would just nandroid and wipe my phone (I dunno how well that'd go I've never tried it but I don't see how it could totally brick your phone, who knows!)
I don't know if you've got anything flashed on your phone, but if not flash a recovery then yeah, flash any different rom without wiping and you should get boot loops.

For the record, I think this is a fair question, and not particularly condescending.
OP: You are asking a legit question, but you have to admit it's a bit of a strange request. You can't blame people for wondering what you're up to, I thought the same thing. Not that you were scamming someone, but couldn't understand why you'd want to do this (I get it now... sort of). It's an impersonal forum, so there shouldn't be any hard feelings.
One thing that constantly caused bootloops in the CyanogenMod forum was to flash the Froyo gapps with a Gingerbread install. Bootloop every time.
You could probably flash a theme that wasn't designed for Gingerbread. I'd bet that would give you a bootloop (especially the further you go back... flash a cupcake theme for a G1 onto an N1 )
Maybe I'm just being cynical but it seems to me that the OP is doing something shady here. He wants to do something that makes no sense and then immediately jumps down the throat of someone who basically calls him for it. His reasoning for why he wants to do this nonsensical thing is also pretty nonsensical. I'd guess he's trying to scam something from someone.

Yes, I completely agree with your first statement. YOU ARE BEING CYNICAL!!!
Ok as an avid lover of my phone (nexus one), I have the right to ask the means of breaking this phone if i'm going to root it and install a ROM which is only supported by the community that helps develop it (that includes primarily folks over at XDA). If you think I'm upto no good, too bad. Assume the worst, do whatever the F*** you want. All I'm trying to do is show my cousin what a bootlooped phone looks like. And apparently each time I am in the process of doing it, he wants to use the pc. He likes killing all the running apps when he's on the PC, and i need to stop him from screwing up something that can potentially f*** up my phone. I often switch from Stock N1 to CM7 to blandroid, and thankfully i follow directions which is why my phone hasn't boot looped til date.
Yes I jumped throat on the 1st person who responded, but look at my response before jumping throat. I didn't really think of the response as condescending, until had posted my answer, hence the edit.
Don't bother posting such crappy posts unless you want to feel like you're getting scolded by the DA's office for wrongful accusation.
C
Well you cannot blame people for coming up with these various speculations. My 2 cents, but you just redirect your energy towards your cousin more rather then get angry over forum post.
The way I see your situation is this. The PC used to flash your phone, who is the owner? If you own it, tell him to wait like a good little boy or he can GTFO of your computer, ban him. Or if the PC belongs to him, maybe it's time you suck it up and respect when and how he wants to use his PC, and flash your phone using another instead. Or maybe get a job and buy your own?
Time to man up. Either you tell him to GTFO of your PC, or you GTFO of his. Simple solution to what I see to a simple matter. No need to complicate things by semi-bricking your phone.

REVOLT!!!!!

I know that I come across as a prick on here lately, but I'm gonna start a revolution against ROM Manager and Kernel Manger...
Useless programs for people trying to shortcut a proven system...
One other thing I'm adding to that, but the vote is still out is any FormatAll programs. Both times i used Caulkins, I had to go reflash recovery via PC36IMG.
Newsflash! Wiping all in recovery works fine. I've flashed 1000 setups liek thnat with ZERO problems.
As for the former, not in ONE single thread for any ROMS doers it say "Use ROM Manager". Wanna know why?? Because using RECOVERY is a PROVEN system
I apologize to the Devs, especially Caulkin, because I think he's a genius, I know they put a lot of time and effort into their apps, but it's useless.
I see 10,000 posts about people having problems with flashing ROMS and Recovery and 9,900 of them were using ROM Manager.....
OK, now the people that are gonna tell me how wrong I am can chime in.....
I never used those apps myself, I prefer the piece of mind that's its being done right, I do like the format all zip I always used that.
I actually agree with you. I myself have come across issues with ROM manager the few times I've used it. Going into recovery yourself is more secure in getting the job done.

You're from Peoria ... so, uh, yeah, you're wrong.
Kidding aside, or - maybe not, what does it even really matter?
The experienced, and not so much, use these services ... why do you care? Are the masses running to you for help? No. They're not. If people are going to do things wrong, they're going to do things wrong.
I've used Kernel Manager twice, only because it seemed convenient. I still looked through threads here. Even if I didn't, who cares?
People use these out of convenience, for the most part. Then, sure, there are some that use such because of them being simple and have no problems. Not to be rude, but what do you care if people do or do not use these? People are still going to **** their **** up, regardless.
Again, if you were the 'help master,' which you're not, I might understand. But you're not, so I fail to understand the reason for the thread. Apart from ridiculing people.

I will say this; I see as many people posting problems about issues flashing from recovery as well. Again, if people are going to **** something up, they are going to **** something up. And with most people I have seen, they are posting positive experiences from using ROM Manager. Now, I know - despite you actually using numbers - you have no numbers. So, naturally, I wouldn't make such a drastic assumption while trying to actually use numbers. Made up numbers at that.
And, so - in turn, it's NOT useless. People get much use out of such apps. 'Noobs' and perfectly able individuals alike.
Hell, when I wanted to flash the GodMode kernel I just hit KernelManager and had it take care of business in one foul swoop. Granted, I'm using an older version of Amon's recovery, so I would have had to go into my folder and move the kernel to the root of my SD card, then power down and wipe cache and dalvik and so forth. Instead, I hit 'teh magic button stick' and took a few hits and took a few drinks while my phone just sat there. Beautiful.
Granted, I don't rely solely on these apps / programs ... but even if I did, would you hate me? I can't imagine why, seeing as I don't look to you for help when things go wrong. Not that they ever have. But, honestly, whatever. This is a pretty petty thread.

Sorry that I'm coming off rude but give me a break. These developers built something for inexperienced users & even advanced users to add convenience to flashing. If you really want a change please contact the developer with some constructive feedback, not this pointless thread. Cause trust me, this stupid revolt is going to get any application taken down.
Sincerely,

i have used then all and have no NO troubles with them ...
if you dont like them dont use them period .
I am not a pro but flashing things to my phone is nothing I am new to and I for one love BOTH apps!
I can look and read up on a ROM and have this cool program
Download
Backup
Wipe
Install
And let me know if there is a update.
I have flashed many roms and never had a problem. . .
Well, there was a time I did not pick the new gapps and well. . . . That was my bad.
Can I start a "REVOLT" from post like this?

I am a newbie to all this stuff and I've looked at Rom Manager and didn't understand it but I was taught to flash through recovery. Although my first flash I didn't backup my OS (will never make that mistake again). Recovery is quite simple. Still getting the hang of all the lingo and what exactly everything does though.

Why the rage?
I've never used the kernel app but rom manager and format-all.zip (I guess you never use clear-temp-files.zip either) have their uses.
When I first flashed a rom, I used ROM Manager (anyone remember Damage Control?). Then I used it to download ROMs but flashed via RA AMON. Now, I only use it to fix permissions. It's a good app for beginners.
I've used format-all.zip and clear-temp countless times and NEVER had any problems. I also never had problems with rom manager - I stopped using it because I wanted to clear dalvik cache and I wasn't sure if CWM did that.
Calm down. Choices are good even if some aren't ones you would choose.

TIFU: Boot loop maybe?

Can anyone please help me? Today I got my 6P and decided to try and root it. Now it wont get out of the boot animation and ADB devices no longer lists my phone. Is there a chat room or walk through for fixing this? I'm in a pretty large amount of mental agony over this. I just want stock back and will never fiddle again. Promise.

How did you root it? If you follow my guide you'll have no problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
You'll need to start from scratch though so follow the directions in section 9 first, that'll take your phone back to stock.
I used the Nexus Root Toolkit I found because I figured I'm a novice, this will do it for me. Hah! Nope. Also tried to restore it that way. No go, surprising no one at this point.
Ok. So i had the wrong file, because again, I'm a moron and it has been proven. Looks like things are going back to stock ok now. <3 :crying: so happy

A word of advice: don't use toolkits. While they may seem helpful for a novice like yourself, they'll keep you at a novice level because they allow you to do things to your device without actually knowing what's going on. This prevents you from doing any learning and advancing. Take the time to learn how to use fastboot and you'll see it isn't as daunting as you may think, plus you'll get great satisfaction from doing these things yourself. Have a look at my guide, and if you have any questions myself and others are there to help.

New to OnePlus.

Good day. I'm a recent convert to OnePlus from LG. Learned the ins and outs of rooting and flashing on that device primarily through reading, and asking for help in the forums. Would anyone be willing to help by pointing me in the direction of info that would help me get started. Obviously I want to root and possible flash custom on this device at some point. Thanks.

Hey,
Welcome to the dark side
Here's my guide on the bootloader and root for Android 10
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8-pro/how-to/guide-unlocking-bootloader-rooting-t4151823
If you're already on 11 then just use the bootloader guide and skip to the next guide below.
Here's also my guide on how to obtain a boot img, the software needed, how to extract it, how to upgrade whilst retaining root or how to root 11 directly, 2 methods..
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-8-pro/how-to/root-uk-eu-patched-magisk-boot-img-t4175033
If you have any questions, just ask away.
The OnePlus uses a two slot system..so if you're booted and you flash a boot img it'll go to the other slot.
There also no TWRP for Android 11 yet, but truth be told you simply don't need it..
My advice would be (if you want to unlock etc) is to get updated and rooted, then grab xXx NoLimits which is a magisk ROM.
Really appreciate your response! I'll do my best to not be a complete bother. I am pretty good at studying up before making attempts, but have been known to sound a bit frantic when I get into a perceived mess. Always appreciated the supportive ones in these forums. Peace!

No worries pal.
Read and create a structure in your head of what's going on.
If you're not sure then ask or eliminate the possibilities.

I just came from the Pixel line....took me a bit to get Verizon to properly activate my device but this thing is sweet. I am currently on the xXx NoLimits. The one thing I miss about Android 10 is being able to force fullscreen on certain apps of mine. I've done it for years for certain situations using a root app. Now it no longer works since they did away with the ability in A11. I did notice a "Apps to Display in Fullscreen" under Advanced in Display settings.....nothing there though. What's that all about?

Lol no idea mate, there is a thread about it but not sure if it'll gain any traction.
The emulators I use all go full screen including the cutout.
Check out my centre clock mod in themes and apps..
Plus the energy ring for battery round the camera cutout..
Just looks better
