[GUIDE] Install Xposed Framework across ROMs (MIUI / Custom / KK / LL / MM)



Hello All,

I have seen posts across forum seeking support for installing Xposed Framework for our phone - Redmi 2 (wt88047).

For a new person it can be indeed confusing as Xposed files vary depending upon Android version (different for Android 5.0/5.1/6.0) as well as vary depending upon processor (different for arm, arm64, x86)

Hence this guide, following which one can easily find, download and install right version of Xposed Framework and can start enjoying various xposed modules.

Prerequisite is to have rooted phone with Custom Recovery (TWRP / CWM).

Now there are two variants of Xposed Framework. To get more insights pls read further else move to Step 1

1) Official release by rovo89 which works fine for ROMs like CM, AOSP and others based on CM, AOSP etc. Unfortunately this official version doesn't work with MIUI
2) Unofficial release by SolarWarez which is tweaked to work for MIUI devices. This works perfectly well for MIUI ROMs (including stock rom loaded on our phone as well as other custom MIUI versions like one from xiaomi.eu)

While I have linked to the original threads for the two xposed variants, it can be still confusing as there are total of 9 files (3 android versions multiplied by 3 processor types). Our device Redmi 2, though has 64-bit processor but all ROMs are 32 bit only. Hence we need to get arm files.

STEP 1 - Downloading the right type of files

File No. 1: XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha4.apk from here

File No. 2: Xposed*.zip (version 86 for all except MIUI Kitkat) installation file from below depending upon ROM type
For devices running MIUI ROMs download one of the following files depending upon base android version (Lollipop / Marshmallow):

For devices running CM, AOSP or other similar Custom ROMs download one of the following files depending upon base android version (Lollipop / Marshmallow):

File No. 3: Xposed-uninstaller*.zip from here to uninstall the framework.

STEP 2 Installing the files

- Install Xposed Installer apk (file no. 1)
- Copy the Xposed*.zip (file no. 2) and the Xposed-uninstaller*.zip (file no. 3) to your sdcard
- Reboot to custom recovery
- Make a nandroid backup
- Flash "xposed*.zip" through custom recovery
- Reboot and wait, it may take several minutes to boot up depending on your ROM size and installed apps amount.

If phone doesn't boot even after 5 minutes then reboot into recovery and restore by using nandroid backup or by flashing Xposed-uninstaller*.zip

That's it... In case anything fails, pls read carefully and verify that right version of xposed*.zip file has been installed.

Titanium Backup settings don't save across ROM type changes



Hi,

N910C

When I switch from TW ROM to CM rom, titanium backup settings aren't preserved. Anyone have pointers to keep the filter lists (the only thing that's really important)?

White Lines across my smart phone screen



One morning I woke up and the bottom half of my Samsung galaxy avant (SM-G386T) had a grid of white lines going across it. First time I restarted my phone it went away.

But they keep coming back and now it's more permanent, Sometimes it goes away briefly but they come back. I tried factory resetting. That worked the first time for a few hours but then it came back. and I tried it again and 2nd time there white lines where there during the factory reset.

The lines even show when I turn the phone off and charge the phone. So I believe this means it is w hardware issue

I tried taking the back planel of the phone off. I disconnected and reconnected the lcd connector latch on the left side. But the problem still persists. I haven't pulled up the screen with a suction cup. So Idk if there is a cable that could be loose on the front end or not. But Idk want to go buy suctions cup if I dont need to you.

Should note that I do have a good sturdy rubber case on my phone. but it has hit the floor a few good times.

One other thing that seems to aggravate or sometimes even make the lines go away is putting my phone to sleep and waking it up repeatedly or adjusting my brightness to max.

What do you guys think? is this fixable or do I need to replace the lcd screen.
