MISSING XPOSED?!!! because of 7.1.1 update?

Please note that this write up is based on the assumption that you have a rooted after updating firmware to 7.1.1 and also unlocked bootloader
On several ocassions I was tempted to take firmware upgrade to Anroid 7.1.1 but thinking of missing xposed, I was delaying it. Finally I decided to take the firmware update mainly because of several goodness packed in Android 7.1.1. Finally I updated my device with Android 7.1.1 and took following alternatives to enjoy the benefits that I was enjoying with xposed.
1. I hate softkeys and also wanting to always keep status bar immersive. Xposed immersive module was doing the job. I achieved the same wihtout xposed as below,
Added a line in build.prop qemu.hw.mainkeys=1, and restart phone hides navbar permenantly. Installed Tile Root to hide status bar and the good thing about this this app is that it doesn't loose notification pull down option. Once installed it will be seen in Quick settings as it doesn't have launcher. Using Quick settings edit, you can being the immersive button and use it to go immersive. We need Pie Control to manage the absence of navbar.[/URL]
2. YouTube background playback was possible with the help of xposed module. I managed the same screen off playback as below,
Installed OG YouTube which is a moded version of official YouTube. This has the ability to play YouTube in the background. You can search yourself to find this modded app
3. Magisk work for 7.1.1 hence if anyone wants to use Android Pay it is still possible
If anyone wants to find alternative for the xposed module that were in use until MM, please post here. We can collectively find a best possible options.

YouTube ads can be filtered using xposed module YouTube Adaway. I am Adguard to do this job and selected HTTPS filtering instead of VPN option. It works better now. I can enjoy YouTube videos without ads which use to appear every 15min.

I miss some module that allowed to swipe up and down in the official youtube app for changing volume

Marshmallow on the OnePlus 5?

Hi everyone,
I have a really crazy idea and like to hear your opinion about it. But first let me introduce the topic.
First, let's take a look at what is going on when upgrading from one major Android version to a newer.
The boot and system partition are filled with new content.
Beside kernel adjustments, this is only related to Android, not device specific stuff, right?
Then we have more stuff like the recovery, closed source drivers for the modem, etc. Several times I read about the "firmware". I'm not sure what is meant with firmware exactly in case of a smartphone and how much device specific it is.
How much is this further stuff related to the Android version running on the device?
Summarizing, what is done by a manufacturer when upgrading a device from let's say Marshmallow to Nougat? What needs to be touched and what is not?
Now to the crazy idea. What about downgrading from one major Android version to an older, espacially when there is no older version by the manufacturer? What would need to be touched in this case? Did someone ever try this?
Finally I come to the real question:
Is it possible to port Android Marshmallow to the OnePlus 5?
The reason for this crazy idea is that I can't live without Xposed. But the Xposed Framework isn't available yet for Android Nougat. And to be honest, I'm not sure anymore if it will ever be.
I'm a developer, but I'm afraid I'm not experienced enough to help porting Xposed over to Android Nougat. I would if I could, but my time is limited also.
In contrast to porting Xposed to Nougat, porting Marshmallow to the OnePlus 5 might be easier for me or us, the people who would like to have a OnePlus 5, but can't live without Xposed.
I'm curious about what you think about this crazy idea.

What about Magisk? I've heard that Magisk simplify everything

I actually like the idea! It would be great to have "retro" ROMs, like Android 5, 4.4, or lower. I know it's a bit stupid, but that would be cool in my opinion

I would love it also just because of Xposed,nothing else really

Magisk is a great tool, but it doesn't have the capabilities of Xposed. So this won't help.
But let's talk only about Marshmallow on the OnePlus 5 here, not about alternatives.

I would absolutely love if OP5 had a Custom Marshmallow port.....I also cannot live without Xposed.

I heard Xposed was ported on Nougat Rom with ARM architecture

Just curious, but why? What do you use in Xposed you can't live without that root and custom ROMs don't offer?

Due to the fact you would have to literally write a kernel for MM for the Oneplus5 as there is no existing one, it would be more worthwhile to put all that time into geting Xposed working.
It's probably possible but the mammoth effort to get an older OS on your device would not be expedient...

I am currently using the Oneplus 5,
do you think there could be any way i can use Xposed?
The reason I prefer Oneplus is for being so open and easy to root together with Xposed personally.

1. Technically it should be possible, you just need drivers that would boot Marshmallow on SD 835.
2. Older systems usually have simpler/less API than new one, so there would be no "unsupported" system features.
3. Easiest way would be to port a kernel from a device that shipps with SD 835 and Marshmallow, for now I saw some on benchmarks, but they will probably ship with N onboard when released.

We don't discuss this here. You can believe me, when I say I can't live without it. Xposed's capabilities go much much further then custom roms.

Which is why I asked... The point of this thread you created was to get Xposed on the OP5, so I don't see why you can't discuss that here. I'm genuinely curious what it is about Xposed that you need that custom ROMs and/or root can't offer.

Not possible currently without Xposed. Have not seen an app able to do this, have not seen Tasker or Tasker Plug-In able to do this.....nothing does this function. Very useful!

@geoff5093 OK, if you really want to know, I took the time to create a short list:
YouTube AdAway is a good example. It removes ads from the original YouTube app.
YouTube Background Playback adds what you usually only get when you pay for YouTube Red.
XHangouts adds certain stuff to the Hangouts app, like moving the call button to the manu, so that you don't accidently press it.
Amplify can extend your battery life.
Greenify works also only with root, but better (more capabilities) with Xposed.
MinMinGuard removes ads from apps.
App Settings, a classic module by rovo89, the developer of Xposed, can do several configuration stuff per app.
GravityBox is an example, that offers functionality that can also be done by using a custom rom, but selected features are only offered by this module.
I do even more with Xposed, almost everything isn't possible using only root and custom roms.
TL;DR
A custom rom can only add/change functionality of built in stuff, not apps. Xposed can manipulate also apps.

Thanks for the list. I used to use many of those as well, but the benefits of greenify and amplify are pretty much moot when you have to sacrifice the significantly enhanced performance of doze in Nougat.

It seems that not many people are interested in Marshmallow on the OnePlus 5. This is comprehensible, at least since we saw a first unofficial release of Xposed for Nougat here on XDA.
For everyone participating in this thread, Xposed is the reason why we would like to see Marshmallow on the OnePlus 5. Once Xposed for Nougat is out, the idea get's obsolete.
Let's see when we will get Xposed for Nougat, hopefully rovo89 is successful! :fingers-crossed:

I got this to work. I installed the framework via Magisk, and then I used the Xposed APK installer found in the Magisk thread.

It installs fine through Magisk on the XL 2, just make sure you have the correct Xposed Installer version installed before you install Xposed through Magisk.

It's installed and says it's active, but also says it's not compatible with the architecture. I can enable modules, but none of the few I have right now I've really tested, so I'm not sure if they're actually working.

If you installed systemless xposed then you need the material xposed to be working if i am not wrong

Well, I'll get things started and say that "Lockscreen Mods" seems to kind of work; I'm just unable to set custom icons. Double tap to sleep on the lockscreen does work.
X Screen Stabilizer also appears to work just fine.

Does anyone know if the SnapTools Xposed module works? I haven't had a chance to even set my 2 XL up just yet otherwise I would have tested myself.
Let me know if anyone has tried it! :good:

The description for the Xposed Magisk module said to install topjohnwu's specific modified version of the material installer:
Please install my modified XposedInstaller(3.1.4) to properly detect Systemless Xposed. The APK is signed by my personal key, you might need to uninstall other versions before installing mine.
Click to expand...

It seems that if you install Xposed before installing this APK, it won't detect Xposed properly, but installing the APK before installing Xposed seems to work.
This is only if you're installing through Magisk, as I haven't tried installing it conventionally through TWRP.

I was able to install by installing the xposed app then letting the app download and install the framework.

What steps did you take to get it working? I haven't used it before, so it could very well just be user error. I'd like to confirm if it does work.

Snap Tools works for me too

Where do I find snaptools? Its not showing up in the closed app when I search it

Does installing this on Oreo 8.1 Pixel 2s break the SafetyNet (Android pay, banking apps, and etc)?

Stock with mods [opinion]

Don't get me wrong there are some good ROMS around from time to time but there's also something to be said about stock rooted with mods. Sure it might take more time but you'll also get guaranteed updates until EOL. You can add or remove as much as you want. I appreciate those who still make ROMs for this device. Just wanted to share my two cents and what I'm using for anyone curious..
ROM: Stock
Root: Magisk
Recovery: TWRP
Magisk Modules:
App Systemizer
BusyBox
F-droid privileged ext
iOS 12.1 emojis
Mm recovery mode
RIRU core/exposed (sandhook)
System accent colors for p
Viper4android fx legacy materialized
YouTube vanced
Systemless hosts
Substratum
EdExposed apps:
Gravity box
Gravitybox mods:
Volume button media control
Screen off Torch power button
Network traffic indicators
.. much much more
And of course your favorite root apps:
Adaway (w/ Steven black list)
VPN hotspot (f-droid)
Afwall+
Substratum themes
ExKernel manager w/ latest kernel.
Anyways just trying to start a friendly conversation, feel free to share your setup!

That's a nice setup you got there. Mine is much more vanilla:
Q beta 5
Magisk stable
ElementalX kernel
AdAway
Battery Charge Limit
AOD enabled through Substratum
Tasker set up to turn off AOD when there are no notifications/media active
If I may ask, are you able to pass SafetyNet and use Google Pay with Xposed installed? Does the kernel-level patch override Xposed as well?
Thanks

I used to have this setup:
- ROM: stock Pie
- Root: latest Magisk
- Recovery: TWRP
- Kernel: Franco Kernel
Magisk modules:
- Busybox
- Systemless debloater
- LKT
- Quickswitch
- Viper4android
- AOD enabler
- Youtube Vanced
- Volume steps increaser
- Product Sans systemless font
Useful root apps:
- Adaway
- Titanium Backup
- Substratum + themes
- Tasker (listed here because of root tasks)
My phone was amazing. It's been like 3 years like this. Then I wanted to try something new, so as of now I've installed the EvolutionX 2.0 ROM, which is pixel experience based and has some of those features I listed above built-in.
So far so good, great performance and good battery life. Let's see how it goes. I might go back to Q when the stable build comes out, and I may keep stock again with those mods.
P.S. for @Flipz77: I also tried EdXposed before, and it doesn't break safetynet. Just realized that I don't really need it if using magisk modules + tasker, also performance are worse for me with EdXposed installed.

To my knowledge Google pay hasn't worked for anyone for a while since they started flagging modified boot loaders. Even just vanilla Magisk breaks it. So no, won't work for anything but stock iirc. Otherwise yeah still passes safety net for other checks.

I think the ultimate fix is running a custom kernel that includes the safetynet patch.
GPay has always been working for me ever since., both on ElementalX and Kirisakura
As long as I stayed on stock kernel, no amount of fiddling around with Magisk helped.
