[Q] Safe to install Xposed without Custom Recoveries?

Hi guys!! I have a question, is it safe to use Xposed framework without using custom recoveries?
I know everywhere they say its safe to make a backup with recoveries but i want to refrain from doing that as I am going to take the OTAs when available in my country (Obviously will uninstall the Xposed framework before OTA (Hoping this will work - any insight on this too is appreciated)).
I am not into changing ROMS and use stock ROM only but want to use Xposed for its great customizations (Modules interested in G2 Xposed/Tweakbox/Gravity Box).
Did anyone ever had a problem using Xposed / Any experiences to share where Xposed messed up the phone completely/partially and had to recover using TWRP or CWM?
Or is it just a "Safe step" to install recoveries and back it up before using xposed?

do not take the ota even if your just rooted it will brick your device
My understanding is that Xposed does not worked with G2's Kitkat right now. The problem is not related to root.
Edit: See this thread.

Once Xposed 2.5 comes out it will work just got to wait

[Q] xposed and modules

Hi Guys,
I am using Verizon S5 rooted with Xposed installed along with two modules SwipeBack and Wanam with root rights granted. I am able to go into both modules and configure settings and etc., but nothing happens. The modules are checked off in Xposed.
Anything I missed? Much appreciated.

Did you install the xposed framework on the first tab in the program? it won't do anything even if they're enabled if the xposed framework isn't installed. It installs xposedbridge.jar and appprocess.jar i think.

What did BusyBox do? URGENT PLEASE HELP

Hello, I have a S5 rooted running stock. I'm pretty sure I didn't trip knox when I rooted it. So anyway I rooted my phone a while ago using odin and it was all good. See I use ANZ mobile pay, which is pretty much like android pay. Then the other day I was messing around with overclocking and undervolting and stuff, so I installed busybox for the app. Then when I went to go pay and now the app doesn't work. It says something because the device has been modified. I believe there is an Xposed module for this but I don't have Xposed because of TouchWiz. I would prefer not to have to reset or loose data. As soon as there is a stable CyanogenMod (13) release for this I will probably go over to that so I can use the Xposed module but I'm not sure when that is. So I uninstalled BusyBox and wanted to know if I could undo what ever it did. Anyway if there is another solution it will be much appreciated. Thanks

If BusyBox is installed into system/xbin it will break ANZ Mobile Pay. There is an Xposed module called And Mobile Pay Root Detection. You can find the XDA thread explaining it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/xposed-anz-mobile-pay-root-detection
It is available in the Xposed download section and the Xposed repo.

Thanks man but I can't get Xposed (without deodexing the rom, which is a pain). Is there anyway to uninstall what busybox put in so ANZ Mobile Pay can't detect it anymore?

You can install xposed on an odexed ROM.

If you are still rooted, you will have to delete the BusyBox files that were installed to system/bin or system/xbin, I believe. If you want to know exactly where BusyBox was installed into the system, install the app again, let it load and look at the top of the app. It shows where BusyBox is installed. Then you can use your root file explorer and navigate to the folder and delete the files that were installed.
Also, Xposed works on odexed and deodexed Rom's. Did you receive an error in TWRP when trying to install the Xposed framework?
Why not Odin the stock firmware and give yourself a fresh start?
and now a word from our sponsors....
All the above is sound advice......
But just to comment on what you said about tripping knox.......
You say you rooted via Odin.....
That means you flashed either CF ROOT and superSU or TWRP and superSU....
Both these methods WILL trip knox.

Kiethross39 is correct. CF AutoRoot will trip the Knox counter as well as using Odin to install TWRP. I have a Galaxy S5 rooted with CF AutoRoot and with TWRP installed and my Knox counter is 0x1. Boot to download mode and look in the top left corner of the screen and check your Knox counter. I guess it really doesn't matter at this point but just for future reference it's there. Let me know how everything works out.

Yes I am still rooted. So removing these will allow ANZ mobile pay to work. Is there an easier way to remove all of them. (yes I know there is this one tool, but I don't want to flash it). I am happy with Stock Touchwiz for now but I am waiting until Official Stable CM13 because I really like CM. Thanks you have helped me heaps.

Xposed Framework on a G7-L01

Hello, I am curious to know if anyone has tried the Xposed Framework on a G7-L01 and if so, what if any issues they have come across?
I've been following Xposed Framework v82-Huawei for EMUI 3.1/4.0 and I'm about ready to jump in and install the framework, but just want to check with other users first
Any advice would be appreciated :good:
Hi, I successfully installed Xposed on my G7 and it is working without issues. Just not getting CM13 installed somehow but at least am on rooted stock version.

Excellent, held off on mine just till the weekend, but can I ask you, for the G7 did you use the ARM or the ARMx64 zip? I'm thinking the ARM is correct, but might be wrong.
install systemless xposed

Correct, it is ARM, not the 64bit version.

Had a go with Magisk, v7 went on no problem. I then flashed the modded Xposed and lost root. I had put SuperSU as user app, but was not interested in using the systemless SuperSU and suhide, but by not using them, that possibly led to the root going. Will keep an eye on Magisk though, interesting development.
Restored backup and went with the ARM version of Xposed Framework v86 proper and so far OK, root stayed anyway which was main thing.
I've only tried XToast module, to test and it is not fully working for me. Will try another few modules before I decide if I want to try systemless again.

Thanks for confirming, appreciated :good:
Any recomendations for good working Xposed modules for the G7?
Main reason I want to try it, is lack of custom roms for this device, so might as well mod the stock rom to suit myself.
I have Viper4Android, on and working, but looking for a way to automate the selinux enforcing for it through an Xposed module, but any other suggestions are welcome

Hey aStRaL_dRaGoN, thanks for the reply and the offer. I went with normal Xposed and normal root in the end and so far all is OK.
I don't play Pokémon Go or have any banking apps that would require me to go fully systemless just yet. I did try it out though and Magisk, went on OK, no problems, the issue arose when I flashed the modded Xposed zip, I lost root then. I can only assume it was because I did not have SuperSU, fully systemless, I had just not made it a system app, I left it as a user app. Maybe some other time though I'll go back to the Magisk route and if I have any problems, I'll ask you, thank you :good:

Any help? :angel:

Google.
apparentlty xposed isn't compatible with Samsung phone using Android 5.0
Have you asked on the xposed forum ??
I'm also looking for a way to hide my root from specific application.
I already "googled" it as Dejan Sathanas suggest, and solutions like temporary disable root are not good for me.
Thanks,
Look for app Magisk for hide root

Search and you will find working Xposed. I had used Arter's Xposed version (number I forgot).
I used Xposed with 5.0 AryaMod (stock based ROM) for more than 1.5years.
And then install Rootcloak and things should be fine.

I tried this once. Magisk then systemless xposed, it only got me in boot loop. Have you tried it yourself?

The OP clearly say "rooted with chainfire root", so how can you advice on Magisk?
