I want to install Magisk and Xposed on my Sprint S4.
I've looked on the forums about Magisk, and there are a number of things that I just don't understand how to do on my phone. Can anyone help provide a step by step/how to install Magisk on the S4?
Here is what my phone currently has/is if it helps:
It is rooted.
Recovery is PhilZ Touch 6

How about you state the parts that you don't understand rather than asking someone to write a step by step guide. The instructions aren't that complicated, and I'm sure if I can explain the parts that are confusing you, you can figure the rest out.

Ok, fair enough. The first thing I saw in the instructions was to make sure I was to make sure I was 100% stock and boot. I don't think I am but don't know how to tell.
But even before that, I saw that: "Older Samsung devices generally (6.0+): sepolicy issues, should be fixed in v7"
So I think I'll wait until v7 is out before I try anything.

Make a nandroid backup (because you should always have a recent one when modifying your phone) then Odin stock tar from www.sammobile.com, then you are 100% stock... easy peasy.
I think I can do that.
But since the Magisk instructions says, "Older Samsung devices generally (6.0+): sepolicy issues, should be fixed in v7" will this even work with a Galaxy S4?

That's why you make a nandroid backup of your current ROM... in case it doesn't. I downloaded Magisk a few days ago, but haven't had the time to test.

Works fine on the S4, you don't even need to be stock for it to work. Ran Synergy and currently running cm13 with no issue. Don't need Magisk as of now just systemless root and suhide with systemless Xposed, no problems playing pokemon go with Xposed enabled

I'm sure TouchWiz poses more problems than any AOSP ROM would... it always does.

I had very little problems with my sister's stock T-Mobile Note 5, it was marshmallow though. Not sure if systemless Xposed 86.2 is available for lollipop. Systemless Xposed 86.2 is required for Xposed and pokemon to play nice.

Hi Folks
My partner has just got the S5 Active and she loves it..
But now she would like to update from 4.4.2.. Phone says she has latest rom so my questions are this
1)What is the latest official rom for the Active?
2)Whats the BEST root method?
3)What Custom roms are suitable?
3)Finally what is the best route to take to flash a CUSTOM rom?
looking forward to your responses
regards
Lohtse
1) Here you can find the latest TW stock rom:
http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Android Lollipop is available for the S5 Active. You can download the latest Firmware and flash it via Odin. You don't need root for that.
2) My preferred root method is flashing CF auto root via Odin. After that I install another recovery like TWRP
3) Nobody can answer that. Try and find it out (perform a full wipe incl cache before you install a custom rom)
4) This steps: root, recovery, full wipe, custom rom, and at least if you want and need that: custom kernel

Thank you for the help...
finally got it sorted after reading around 9-10 different guides... all of which had little bits missing
now she's a happy bunny with LP on her Active and I'm a tired old fart with droopy eyes!!!!!
Just need a custom recovery now!!
Congratulations! How you solved it?
Yeah recovery is the same problem. It exists no recovery for the G870A
Two things that I found that allowed me to sort the Active which was mentioned
firstly to allow Flashfire to work you had too set clock back past 1/15/15
and you had to also set flashfire to boot into download to allow you to flash the G870A_OC5_Bootloader.tar.md5 file via Odin on the pc.. once I did these it worked...
Just depends which guide you read to find a COMPLETE one....
Damn that sounds very tricky

Not really just no two guides the same.... soon as I noticed the minor differences it was easy.
1) root with towel root copy stock LP(rooted version)
2) Install and set date to 1/1/15 then open Flashfire
3)Flash Stock rooted LP using flashfire making sure you have flashfire set to boot to download when finished
4) open Odin PC and connect S5Active
5)Point Opins AP slot to location of the G870A_OC5_Bootloader.tar.md5 file
6) Flash and reboot and your done...
MAJOR issue was the flashfire issue once found issue and set it as stated above I was Up and running after 10minutes Just had spent 4 hours failing before I notice and figured out what the issues was...
Simple really.... Well it was in the end lol
Hey guys thought I'd let everyone know that Wanam's custom xposed framework for Samsung 5.1.1 firmware is working on the SM-P600.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
Wanam states that CWM and deodexed ROM needed or recommended but with the testing I've done so far it's working well using TWRP and rooted stock odexed DOJ3 firmware.

Please educate on anything I might not be thinking about. I cannot make xposed framework function. stock rooted 5.1.1 SM-P600. Following everything exactly. I have DOK1.

I have to agree with radpp16 above, I followed the instructions but I still can't get it working. The app installed properly, I was able to boot to recovery and flashed it, but after I restarted the app was unable to detect the flashed files.
Tried both the P600UBUDOL2 and P600XXUDOJ3 firmwares and didn't work. Using TWRP 2.8.6.0 and below will cause softbrick on DOL2 firmware.

What version of xposed framework have you been trying? I am using v75.8. Maybe give that a go.

You're running a different firmware which could possibly be causing problems.... not sure if I can offer much more help. I just followed the instructions exactly and it worked.

Thanks for this info, right now I'm using the tablet to do important work so I can't flash a new one, but I'll likely do it in the next 3 - 4 days.
In the meantime, just to confirm, all I need to do is get a rooted DOJ3, install the xposed app, then boot to recovery, flash that v75.8, bootup and then finish the installation in the main xposed app, yes? I'll probably use enotar's in the development section, his fourth beta that's still on the DOJ3 version. That one's pre-rooted and all so simplifies a lot of the work. His newest B5 release is using the very latest firmware that Samsung outs though I haven't been able to get xposed to work on it. So I'll just use the DOJ3 release then.
I've been flashing numerous times but can't get xposed to work with the many firmwares out there so I'm being a bit cautious lol

You're welcome.
Not sure what you mean by finish the installation in the main app though? The xposed framework should be installed and locked in, meaning no ability to flash or upgrade the framework within the app.

EDIT 2: Boy, did this take a lot of derpin around, but xposed versions are rather specific to firmwares, and after a number of testing I finally found that for the fifth beta of Enotar's ROM, which is based on firmware P600UBUDOL2, the one that works is v 79.0, specifically xposed-v79.0-sdk22-arm-custom-build-by-wanam-20151217.
====================================================================
EDIT: I flashed Xluco's kernel on Enotar's B4, that somehow removed the device's root. Giving up on that firmware, I now reformat the device. flashed the fifth beta, installed the alpha 3.0 Xposed app, flashed the latest wanam xposed, v79.1, and now after rebooting the app wasn't even able to detect it.
===============================================================
Well, I flashed the lollipop firmware, installed the xposed app, boot to recovery, flashed the aforementioned xposed file and when I came back to the main app this appears.
Basically "CANNOT LINK EXECUTABLE DEPENDENCIES: library 'libdvm.so' not found"
Tried searching around, seems like the problem stems from an incorrect xposed module but I've followed the steps outlined in my previous post which mirrors marxses's suggestion. Any helping tips, eh?
Which Xposed version will work with DPC4 stock 5.1.1?
Hey everyone kinda new to this, had a HTC Sensation, good few years back and tinkered a fair bit with that.
I now have a sm-g900f S5 running stock 5.0 Baseband G900FXXU1BOJ1. I have rooted the device and got TWRP running. I have backed everything up.
My question is can i put xposed on my device and if i can how do i go about it.
Thanks in advance.

I think XPosed should work on any bootloader,only depends on the versions that xposed supports but by now it should support almost any android versions,anyone can correct me if I'm wrong here.

Hi. I just flashed my L720 (Sprint, using Ting) to software/baseband version L720VPUGOH1. I am pretty good at what I am good at as far as these phones go - no expert by any means. I just want to make sure I have everything in proper order and am running the right kernel, etc. to go along with the firmware. I tried CM12.1 and other roms, but just never got data, messaging, and other things to work just right. Now I am back to "stock", rooted, Philz recovery, Greenify, and App Quarantine.
My other info is below. Does it look ok, or should I be running something different kernel wise? Just looking for a smooth performance with decent battery. I don't leave my data or wifi on all the time - just when I want to use it.
I am not asking which kernel or tool is the best. I just want to make sure I am using things that match up and work well together.
Kernel version is 3.4.0-4745659

All this tells me it's that you're running stock OH1, I'm not sure what could be wrong but I don't see anything. The only Kernel that I know of that you could use is the Aurora Kernel I ported for Wicked X.

Thank you. I'm not saying anything is wrong. I have noticed the battery drains faster than the previous version of stock (OD2), but I was mainly concerned that flashing back and forth from rom to rom I may have not put things back in proper order. I don't know - I guess I worry too much. Thanks for the info - I may check out that kernel to see if battery life improves.

I only went back to stock because I couldn't work out finding a rom that had proper working data and mms for my service. I use Ting.

Hello,
I am able to successfully root my Note 4 N910C but later on I lose the root access. Following are the steps I did.
1. Flashed latest Marshmallow (6.0.1) from sammobile.com through ODIN.
2. Flashed the following root file from autoroot.chainfire.eu through ODIN.
samsung SM-N910C treltexx trelte universal5433 exynos5 MMB29K.N910CXXU2DPCB 6.0.1 27 967 186 Download e117e8cd8a4ee0eda1fa935fae758e4f 385 972
However after using it for a few days I think a received a security patch (Auto updates was on at that time) and subsequently lost root access.
I tried flashing the root file again through ODIN but no luck.
So I formatted and tried flashing the root file again and this time it worked fine and the first thing I did was turn off auto updates.
Everything worked fine until around 30 minutes I lost root access again. (Supersu said it cannot update binaries)

Same issue, I had autoupdates disabled though... I suddenly lost Root TODAY. IDK how. I remember using Titanium Backup yesterday to make backups, so it was definitely working last night for me.
That is what happened to me
SM-N910C 6.0.1
Hey, I installed Hani's H-Vitamin kernel for 6.0.1 and it restored root for me. Thought you might want to know. I think we're losing Root on Stock due to an updated SE-Linux policy which overwrites patches made by SuperSu to work on an enforcing kernel, but using this custom kernel on Stock seems to solve the issue.

Nice to hear it worked for you I am actually a beginner to rooting and can you guide me on flashing custom kernel and its benefits? And the link you shared was for a different model. Mine is N910C marshmallow 6.0.1

Oh, yes, sorry, the link I meant to post was: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/development/kernel-h-vitamin-t3355879
I have the N910C on 6.0.1 as well.
Flashing this kernel will enable proper root, it seems Samsung has sent a silent security update that disables root.
Do you have TWRP installed? If so, flashing the kernel is easy, just select the Install option in TWRP and choose the kernel zip file, and install it.
