Hi to all,
ORIGINAL BUILD
Nexus 10 Manta 5.1.x
CURRENT
Resurrection Remix 7.1.2, and LATEST busy box pro, SuperSU Pro,
Other than that I have not added or changed anything else.
IT SEEMS that ROMs take up a lot of System space, then I cannot add a larger gapps package.
WHAT I WANT TO TRY
Does Magisk have its own ROM package?
I have read about VIPER ROM - but it seems to be for the HTC?
1). I would like a SMALLER ROM package where I can use Xposed Framework and modules. Which ROMs would that be, and does it take me back to Marshmallow?
1a). Is this where Magisk works well - allowing me to install xposed?
1b). With my current ROM, I cannot install more software. (Yes, I have removed apps that I do like to install others) - Is this ROM considered a LARGE system space hog?
2). Is there a HUGE difference between nougut and marshmallow? If not, I do not mind going back to Marshmallow to get xPosed Framework.
3). I do not want all of the Bloated google apps, but would like to pick and choose which ones to install - which I think would be AROMA Gapps?
4) which ROMS are best and SMALLER (is there such a ROM), for marshmallow?
5). Is there anything SPECIAL I need to do if I go from Nougut BACK to Marshmallow?
Any other suggestions are very welcome. I have been searching, studying, and looking for specific information to answer my questions........maybe some of the answers exist, but I might need them in simpler answers. Smiles
Thanks to all!
How funny. It is Jan 2, 2018 and I am still researching Systemless Roots and Xposed subjects......looking for the best way to get XPOSED back on my Nexus 10..... (Love Xposed)
........I just noticed this question and decided to read it.......lo, and behold.......it is one of my earlier questions I wrote back in July 2017.
Haha......and still no answers for it.....
........made me laugh......

Dude just delete system apps, it frees space fro Xposed and ****, and magisk shouldn't take up any /system space anyway.
I have R. Remix ROM (nougat) 7.1.1 on my nexus 10.......I want to find out if I can use Xposed.....
Or if I just go back to Marshmallow?
AND
Did I understand that Xposed is now a Systemless way to root? On ALL devices?

Hello XDA.
Been looking around this sub-thread for N6p, but I cannot seem to find an updated/maintained thread for systemless root on android 7.x.x.
Can someone point me to one, or tell me how (if) I can get systemless root on custom rom (AICP).
I would really love to get it so I can use Magisk (got some root hating apps I want to use)
Thanks in advance
Bjørn
I believe Magisk handles all of that now if you're using Magisk Hide, etc. Ask in the Magisk discussion thread. You'll probably have better luck their as not everyone runs Magisk. They'd also have to most up to date information for you.
Is Xposed available for the june security update ...if it's there please provide the link or the instructions ..thanks in advance
If you really want to, you could give the xposed Nougat flashable a try: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221 or https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-v87-unofficial-yes-im-t3639192
You'd want SDK 24 arm, and of course you'd have to running TWRP (and magisk if you wish).
However, this unofficial variant of xposed appears to be hit and miss for many users on Nougat (presumably because it's supposed to be directly implemented into the ROM, rather than flashed on top), so your experience may vary. Some modules appear to function, others not so much (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-list-modules-nougat-xposed-t3639615 for a list)
Again, if you really wish to try this, back up your device in TWRP first before attempting this, and if it's not stable, then you may wish to wait for rovo89's official xposed.

No problem - again, be aware that the xposed builds I linked are still experimental (and though based on rovo89's work, are unofficial builds), some things may work, others may not, and in a number of cases I noted that bootloops have occurred. That could either be due to the implementation of xposed or the modules not formally updated to work with Nougat.
Best thing to do is to back up your device in TWRP before you flash this xposed if you still choose to flash, so you can revert should your system be unstable. Also, bear in mind that having xposed on your device may stop SafetyNet from working, so you may lose access to certain apps (e.g. Snapchat, Pokemon Go, various banking apps) unless xposed is disabled or removed.
Hello
I've read around this a lot here and elsewhere and I can't seem to get a definitive answer as to the best solution to the root I'd like. I would like to use TiBu and play PokemonGO (and perhaps use the Barclays UK banking app). It looked like Magisk was the way to do this with Nougat 7.0. This video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjwSjiE76o8
Which is also shown here in a series of screenshots:
http://galaxys7root.com/galaxy-s7-s...s7-or-s7-edge-on-android-7-0-nougat-w-magisk/
...would seem to do what I want. But I expect I would use updated versions of Magisk etc.
I can see threads on here that would indicate that Magisk is now not able to help you pass safetynet with a rooted phone but I think that may be for updated versions of Android and 7.0 may still be OK.
Can anyone confirm that the rooting method shown here is sensible. Or, failing that, the best way to achieve what I want with a currently stock G930FD running 7.0?
Thanks
Maqgisk does by pass safetynet.
Magisk has it own root now built in.
the links you have provided user older versions of magisk without dated installation methods.
Install twrp on your phone then magisk v.14. you do not need any other files.

Thanks! That's the kind of definitive answer I was looking for.
Btw, which Android version are you on? I have an update available that I can download but not sure I should. As I said, I'm on 7.0 so not sure what I'd end up on if I updated.
As I like TouchWiz but would like to reduce the bloat, I am tempted by the Superman ROM, which makes the update point moot.

I am on a custom s8 7.0 rom called galaxy project.
Alright I finally managed to root my phone. I was pretty scared that I would break my phone as a failed at installing twrp twice but my third try was my lucky try. I also have Magisk. So what do I do next? I want to download adaway, maybe lineage OS and especially ways to boost my battery life and keep my phone as a cool as a cucumber (I heard this is a myth but I'd like to see how this forum thinks. but don't know where to start if any can link some guides I would appreciate it! Also how would I begin to even theme my phone? I know there is Substratum but I want to make sure if my S5 can even support it and risk being bricked.
After rooting, you have 3 things to do, they are the beauty of rooting:
1. Disable Bloatware. (Use this)
2. Disable Adware. (Use this)
3. Control which apps can/cannot use your data. (Use this)
That's if you want to keep your phone on stock rom, if you want to install a custom rom, I suggest Lineage 14.1 (Android 7.1.2). Just go here and pickup your rom based on your S5 variant and follow the instructions to install it (by the way, you don't even had to be rooted to install a custom rom). It's the one I'm using right now and it's gorgeous!
As for Substratum, I'm using it now and it's nice, it didn't brick my S5 or anything, I'm using a dark theme which is nice and also good for battery life.
Hope that helps.

Thanks for this useful and detailed response , just won't to ask you I can use a custom rom on a S5 (G900H) uncertified and roioted only say that have only 179 MB in internal storage ?
, thank for any answer and help,
Can anyone recommend a rom that is focused on performance? I'm using my S5 for my drone live feed and need it to run as efficiently as possible since its kinda old.

There's no ROM for S5 that has only 179 MB, the smallest one I can think of right now is the one I referred to in my previous reply; LineageOS 14.1. This ROM has several characteristics that makes it the most suitable ROM for S5 including but not limited to:
1. Small in size (about 300 MB (not including GApps).
2. Already rooted.
3. Fast and lite.
4. Latest Android version (7.1.2)
5. Supported by all S5 variants (including 900H).

Hi all,
Sorry, I never know whether I should post this kind of thing in the General section or Troubleshooting...
I'm looking for up-to-date advice. What, in your opinion, is the most stable and smooth custom rom available. I'm looking for something as recent as possible, preferably Nougat +, but could be MM if necessary.
The phone is going to be used by my mother-in-law so doesn't need any fancy customization, just reliability and performance.
Thanks!! :good:
If you want something really stable with excellent camera go for munjenis nougat rom

Thanks for that. I presume I can find that rom on xda?
--------------
Is it this Lineage rom?:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/development/rom-t3657384
Yup thats it
I used munjenis los 14.1 and switched to AICP 13.1 Oreo. It has up to date patches and is in my opinion currently the best up to date rom. Camera is also fine for me.
hi all! i tried oreo yesterday and all of google (esp. play store & play services) didn't work. tried older versions via apk but no success. without play store makes no sense. anyone an idea why it works for jho55 but not for me (d5503)? and jho55, why did you switch; only for newer version or other reasons? could you give me d/l link to the exact aicp rom u used? at aicp rom it says that there is an issue with oreo on z1c and video recording; does that work on your device? thx&greets, volkbaad
EDIT: found out myself now that i need gapps, too in order to take benefit of google. i work a lot on pc's but up to now not on android, esp. custom roms. it's a bit confusing at first sight; but i'm learning...
It is very important that you follow the instructions posted in the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/so...development/rom-aicp-13-1-o8-1-amami-t3755554
I am using the rom because I want to have the newest security updates, a fresh android, root access(adblock, firewall). Video recording is working for me.

IT WORKS!!!
At first try I used GApps "super" (14.5.81; 900 MB) and guess I didn't clear all cache and data. This obviously ended up in a mess with old Google Play files and new OS. Second time I cleared system, data, cache and dalvik cache before flashing new ROM, rebooted into normal OS and back into (TWRP) recovery before I flashed GApps "micro" (14.8.xx; 300 MB). "Super" and "mini" had some apps which were unfunctional; and if included in package you cannot uninstall and manually reinstall them, so smaller GApps version is safer.
This time the new install became functional w/o any problem. There was even no need to search and installe older version of GApps, as reported elsewhere.
Maybe this is helpful for other Z1C owners. In the thread mentioned above seemingly not every necessary detail is mentioned.
I think the instructions are pretty straight forward from there it says "How to flash:".
I'm not decided yet. For me it's either AICP 13.1 (oreo) or 115ek's LineageOS 15.1 (Oreo). Both are very stable and suitable for every day useage. And they are maintained in regards to security updates
Pro AICP: some really nice features and add-ons (e.g. theming, nice recent apps solutions, extended phone settings and customizations etc.). Together with some optimzing apps (LSpeed, SysConfigPatcher) battery consumption is ok
Pro LOS 15.1: in my opinion a tad faster and and more efficient in reagrds to battery consumption; rather reduced, but I kind of like that
munjeni's LOS version is great (had that running for over a year) but a bit aged now
I've had LOS 14.1 installed for a while and it seems pretty good, however it seems to have some significant bugs. The big one is that Google Duo doesn't work properly- the mic doesn't work so calls are pointless. Dues anyone else have this problem? Or can anyone give me a ROM where Duo definitely works?
Mic volume in general is pretty quiet.
