State Of Xposed on Shield - Shield Android TV General

So this thread will be about the general state of Xposed on our shield TV's. If you have any questions or need help related to Xposed on the Shield TV, feel free to ask.
First Things First, Xposed does work on the 2.1 firmware. (If someone on the Vulcan preview could chime in about 3.0 that would be great.)
Steps to install Xposed on 2.1 (Assuming you already have a working recovery)
1) Download xposed-vXX-sdk22-arm64.zip and XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk from this thread.
either adb push it to /sdcard/ or use a thumb drive etc etc.
2) ADB reboot recovery
3) Preform a full backup IMPORTANT (I did 2 backups, one to internal storage, and another to external usb, better safe than sorry!)
4) Flash xposed-vXX-sdk22-arm64.zip (Wiping cache after is optional)
4) Reboot to system, Booting will take longer than usual, it took about 5 minutes on my 16gb, but could take longer.
5) Install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk (ES file explorer works great for this, you can download it from playstore)
6) Open up Xposed installer once installed, select framework, and it should show Xposed framework version 80 is active. If not, repeat steps 1-4, If you're still having problems, ask here. From the installer you can install modules, just make sure to activate them and reboot!​
Steps to install Xposed on 3.0 MM (with a working recovery)
1) Download xposed-vXX-sdk23-arm64.zip and XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk from this thread.
either adb push it to /sdcard/ or use a thumb drive etc etc.
2) ADB reboot recovery
3) Preform a full backup IMPORTANT (I did 2 backups, one to internal storage, and another to external usb, better safe than sorry!)
4) Flash xposed-vXX-sdk23-arm64.zip (Wiping cache after is optional)
4) Reboot to system, Booting will take longer than usual, it took about 5 minutes on my 16gb, but could take longer.
5) Install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk (ES file explorer works great for this, you can download it from playstore)

I've only tried 2 modules so far, one works, one doesn't. If You have tried a module and it does or doesn't work, please comment with the version and I'll add it to this list.

Hi,
Have you tried with shield 3.0? Does it works with systemless root?
Change in install procedure?
Thank you for your feedback

Haven't tried it yet, been super busy with school, currently running 3.0 stock (not even rooted). If you try it, let me know if it works! I don't see why it shouldn't

Nope, did not work for me
after flashing the zip it keeps booting forever

Arf!
I haven't time to test now.
But seems unfortunate...
Hope there will be a workaround!

I installed Xposed on the 3.0 update. Had no issues. Also installed Xprivacy. Hoping to bypass mlb blackouts with mlb.TV.
I went through the standard process for installing it. Basically the exact steps of the OP but the newest version of the framework.

App Settings module works perfectly.

Xposed and root are working fine for me on 3.0 update, I'll write another guide maybe later today, but the steps are the same, just with the updated zip (SDK 23 for MM).
Brad, is Xprivacy working for you? Any problems?

I can also confirm sucess with the sdk23 MM latest version and shield marshmellow
Xprivacy seems to be working well, except ondemand doesnt seem to pop up for any, or at least some, of the storage restrictions..........im not sure if xprivacy has been updated for marshmellow, so im not sure if storage restriction is working, i will pay attention next time i install an app from scratch........

Andy can u help me.I have installed xposed and it says it is active.Than i instaled App Settings and when i try to change Dpi or other app setting nothing happens.(i have stock 6.0 ...3.0 rooted)

Installed root and xposed on 3.0 no problems, just needed to use pen stick because adaptive storage. Cannot seem to access the bootloader via hardware method (wait 3 secs then hold power button). I Tried many variations of it to no avail... Also I have to reflash the boot loader every time to access it. If I choose kernel recovery from bootloader it just shows the android with a warning / error.
Using Xposed mod Unbeloved Hosts and Lucky Patcher. Between the two I can filter 99% of all ads.

keep getting a error when tryin to flash with twrp on my nvidia shield tv whats is the corret zip for my device? Thanks all.

K I got Xposed installed MM 3.0 But when I use KODI if I have a stream playing it stops a few mins in, If I stop all of the modules in xposed and restart KODI Starts to work again, no probleems streaming. So it has to be Xposed or one of the modules I was using. Luck Patcher, App settings, Xprivecy, yourtube, MinGaurd (Not sure full name der) , YouTube AdAway.

Just installed the latest version of Xposed following the steps on the guide. I'm on 3.3 update, rooted. No problems so far. Will test some modules and report back.

I finally unlocked my bootloader and rooted my Shield after using it for about a year. I use Xposed regularly on my Nexus 6P but wanted to know if anyone has information about Youtube Adaway Module working (or alternative). So far seems like it doesn't work everywhere.
Are there any other modules worth getting on Xposed for Android TV? Perhaps something for Xbox 360 Controllers?
Also would be very interested in Youtube HDR if anyone has a workaround seeing that it's supported officially by Youtube but their Youtube for Android TV app literally hasn't been updated since April so I take it we'll have to wait a few months. Not fun considering my 4K HDR tv has been waiting a year for this.
Thanks in Advance.

Well, Youtube Adaway Module it's working for me. About 1 hr of continuous playback and no one single ad. Xprivacy and Marshmallow SD Fix working too.

Now that Nougat has been out for months and Xposed not working on it, has anyone figured out a way to block Youtube ads? I know arter97 has patched youtube apks but nothing yet for the Shield.

Does Adguard work on Android TV?

I was running it on ARHD but got some weird ram overflow..
It just stacked my 3GB completely full untill the phone became unresponsive so I had to restore a nandroid to fix it..
Weird issue, it might have been one of the modules..
Just waiting till official 64bit version comes out I think...
Hi all
Would like to install exposed, any news on the 64bit version and or the bugs mentioned?

I've been looking for a guide or instructions on how to recover from a boot loop but haven't been to successful in finding anything worthwhile. So wanted to ask here, if it does happen (not that it will) I just want to cover my bases and know beforehand how to recover from a boot loop. Obviously part of the recovery process would be to have taken a NAN backup prior to installing the xposed framework, to recover it's a process of booting into recovery and restoring the NAND?
Really looking forward to getting this on my phone.
Thanks guys.
There is an uninstaller zip available, flash it when you experience a bootloop ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979 ) . Otherwise just flash your rom new, that works as well. Then deactivate all your modules and start reactivating them one by one, you might have an incompatible module running,, which causes it
I've not gotten this to work so far. I'm on 5.1 stock rooted, s-on. Booted up successfully after installing the zip, but when I launched Amplify it says xposed isnt active.
When i went to check in xposed, it says romracer 71 active though. A little help anyone?

Did you activate the module?
I did, yes. However, it does seem like Xposed just won't work with stock 5.1 / odex / S-OFF; bootloops abound.
I've resorted to ARHD 12 to get it to work.

It does work with rooted stock 5.1 s-on though. Sometimes it requires the 2 button reboot. It occasionally sticks at the splash screen but not often. I have used Greenify, Sense Toolbox for Sense 6 and 7 (which has lots of cool features like 12 mini quick toggles and status bar and notification hiding), Always Correct for password memory on my keyboard, YouTube Ad Away, X Hangouts which allows custom theming and features and YouTube Background Playback.. All working great here with the Romracer sdk22 arm64 5.1 framework zip and Xposed Installer 3.0 alpha 4

I can't get it to work. I installed the xposed.apk from the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 which is version 3 alpha 4 and then flashed the framework in TWRP, which is the xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip file. I have an HTC One m9 running android 5.1. When I reboot, it shows that "version 75" is installed in xposed but when I try to run any xposed requiring app it doesn't work. For example, MinminGuard says "Xposed is not enabled".
Is there ANYTHING I can do??

Did you enable the module? Go to Xposed app - Modules - Click the tick boxes - Reboot
Yeah the modules were already enabled. I ended up finding what was causing the problem. I had to go into Super SU and change default access to "Grant" and checked the "Enable su during boot" box. That finally made it work.

[Q] Fire Phone: SuperSU-me, Xposed Framework and other Issues

Hi,
I just got a fire phone and I'm facing multiple issues. It updated to 4.6.6.1 once i started it. Now I want it to act like a normal android phone so I installed google now launcher.
Next thing i wanted to do is to customize the laucher. So I did research how to root it. Did it with kingroot and afterwards followed various instructions to change to superSu. Non of them worked. Neither via adb nor SuperSU me nor the terminal version. only rooted when on kingsroot. SuperSU binaries also would never succesfuly update. Anyways.
So after I got the root, I wanted to install Xposed Framework to finally customize the launcher. Now xposed is saying, that it is not (yet) compatible wit the ANdorid SDK Version 19 or my Prozessor architecture. (armeabi-v7a)
I'm running the phone on german language. Don't know what to do anymore with both. SUpersu and Xposed. Appreciate any help.
So you already bought Super-Sume-Pro? Good, because removing / replacing Kingroot was possible even with the (early) free version of Super-Sume (9.1.6).
Download this old version* of Kinguser.
Yes, like always, it's classified as a virus / exploit / PUP, because it uses very aggressive methods of achieving root.
"But Bingo, this is only Kinguser, I need Kingroot."
No you don't. I used this combo many times, it always worked, from the latest version down to Fire OS 4.6.1 when I first tried it.
Uninstall your current version of Kingroot / Kinguser and remove the leftover folders from the internal storage.
Install the old version (disable auto update within in the app, it can be quite annoying), let it "achieve" root, disable WiFi if you want.
Run Super-Sume. It will have no problem replacing Kinguser with 2 steps.
Download this compatible version of the Xposed Installer.
Install framework, etc. You know the drill.
For BusyBox, I'd recommend either Stericson's version or Meefik's.
I tested one of my devices with 4.6.6.1 and the above mentioned customizations (mainly to enjoy microG on Fire OS ^^), so I can say it definitely works.
* Had to use OCH, because the "good guys" like Dropbox and Google Drive won't allow hosting / linking this file, since it's a bad azz virüs.
I always found W0lfdroid's script to be quite effective and efficient in removing Kingroot:

Hmmmm...I don't know what to say. I just used it today after returning a phone to stock Fire OS for my niece. The only thing I can think of is I'm using an earlier version of Kingroot? I'm using KingRoot-4.1.0.524.apk if that matters. I can try to PM it to you, but I'm not sure it will work because, as Bingo mentioned, it is seen as a virus by most servers.
Yup, I also used the oldest version I had on my PC, this way I can avoid the cat and mouse game between Kingroot and Super-Sume ^^ ... well, for the Fire Phone and some "older" KitKat devices that is.
But since 'coolni' popped his Fire Phone cherry just recently, he naturally went for a current version of Kingroot and he's also on the latest Fire OS release; thought process = better bring the big guns so that root is guaranteed.

Specific Variant of Xposed works on Qualcomm's Perry ( APK Link in OP)

https://www.google.com/amp/s/forum....ed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268/amp/
The thing is.... I went to the app to get the program and Magisk wouldn't install the program on it's end. Took a shot and installed the apk (SDK 25), then installed the 88.1 version shown in the picture (now 88.2) rebooted and waited to "upgrade" itself.... But here it is plain as day. I'm not saying you may get it running on yours but it worked for me. Happy testing y'all,

And apparently Gravity Box for Nougat just came out 2 days ago at the time of this post.
Just ticked to center the time. Perfecto.
Reboot and such work as well
Nav Bar as well (note swapped buttons and added menu)
Even the Expanded Desktop works.
I can't get any modules to install in magisk on this phone. Tried systemless Xposed and nothing. How did you install it?
That looks like system install. Systemless usually says it like in this screenshot.
Did you install magisk with the zip in recovery, or modified boot.img? Systemless Xposed would be nice, hoping to get working on mine.

OK. I got system install working on mine too. Yours looks like system install too, not systemless. The xposed app downloads normal system install. You should change the name of the thread since it's not actually systemless. Just to avoid confusion.

I can't get any magisk modules to work either, I was genuinely hoping you had it here. I've noticed you're pretty active in the forums for this phone.

magisk + xposed problem

Hi all,
I have installed Magisk 16.0 based on Maik93's post, and Xposed Framework SDK27 90.2-beta3 (Systemless), through Magisk modules.
When I enable the Xposed module, the phone first shows endless boot animation, and when restarting it again, it boots, but the Xposed app seems not installed (not listed in Settings->Apps and its icon is not present in chooser), although, in Magisk, it is visible in the Modules and it's checkbox is checked.
Did anybody successfully installed Xposed with A2 Lite? What can be the problem?
Thanks a lot,
Circum
Did you install the apk of xposed?

Here is the link from xda
No, sorry, I was not aware that it is a separate thing.
Now I have installed, but it says that no Xposed Framework is installed. If I try to install a framework from inside the installer (90-beta3), it -- obviously -- reports an error that /system/framework/XposedBridge.jar already exist...
Because of this, I cannot enable any module from Xposed Installer.
Any tips what do I do wrong?
I want to use Xposed too but we will have to wait for TWRP I guess.
Not sure what happened to you, did you tried ti reboot your phone? Mine is working just fine

Not all are working apparently, but if it is bootloop, you so try to let it boot again, press power and volume down as the same time while it bootloop, the second boot always work for me
There is TWRP for Mi A2 Lite.
Search on google.
NOTICE: For now there isn't official TWRP. There'w unofficiak fork which can you install using fastboot. :good:
Not sure what happened, AFAIK I have rebooted the phone at least once, but after rebooting again, it said that the framework is installed, but has some problem with it and not functioning (yellow background, sorry, I forgot to take a screenshot), and rebooting once again solved the problem, I can confirm that Xposed works.
But as others mentioned, installing Magisk itself makes problems with the boot. Booting always stucks, I always needed (even before installing Xposed) to long-press power after several minutes and the second try usually boots up.
Now having Magisk and Xposed (and GravityBox) installed usally need to restart booting twice (i.e., the 3rd boot works).
Any suggestions how to debug / get logs about this problem?

Xposed's Gravity box module works on Mi A2 lite?
Yes, GravityBox is working, although as I mentioned, there are issues with boot - I have to reboot several times until it succeeds...
performace drops significantly when i install the xposed module for magisk. i hope they fix it.
So far everything works fine on my end, I'm not noticing any performance drops in my day to day use. Then again I haven't used it much without Magisk + exposed but from what i'm seeing it's working well, no noticeable lag or stuttering.
I have gravity box, Amplify and Greenify modules running.

Android Q: Viper4android compatible?

I've been trying to get viper4android working on Android q for quite some time but the module and the app itself does not want work at all. Plus when viper asks you to install the driver from the app it will end up in a bootloop. Has anybody found a temp workround for it?
Device: Pixel 2 XL Android version: Q Beta 3
I'm having a similar issue, only the driver install is asked again upon reboot ;_;
Thats only why i rollback from Q.
Total**** sound without
Ok, got it working on beta 3, using the apk 2.7.1.0 from XDA. It appears to install as a magisk module, along with AML. It didn't work on my first try, then all was good. I need to run it in compatibility mode from the menu. https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/com.pittvandewitt.viperfx

Always used the magisk repo version before- I tried this many times on Q, with and without AML, but always got the dreaded install driver dialogue. Also tried SE Linux permissive, but no luck. I've never used the apk before, but am sat here now listening to music quite happily. It's survived a couple of reboots (just checking).

Hm, I just tried that. I downloaded the one off XDA LABS and checked compatibility mode on the app. Still showing up as driver not installed. Viper4Android is literally the key element for my phones such a good module.
Try another reboot?

I just upgraded to Android 10 on my Pixel 2XL and have Viper running now. Download stable 2.7.1.0 from XDA Labs, grant root with Magisk. Check compatibility mode THEN install the driver. Restart, make changes, and then be sure to check "Attach audio effects" in settings once you make your changes.

Ok, here's what you gotta do to get it to work, this is the ONLY method I've had consistently work for me from beta 3-public release(did it an hour ago and worked perfectly)
First, uninstall any viper you have also make sure you completely uninstall audio modification library if you have it installed, not disable, uninstall it and reboot after uninstalling what I've listed.
After you're all booted back up, install viper from labs (link in this thread)(Also, forget about compatibility mode, don't use it) now open viper but do NOT install the driver yet, just open the application then go to magisk and install audio modification library but dont let magisk reboot the phone after it installs. Once installation completed, go back to viper and install the driver and let it reboot. Once booted, go straight to magisk and DISABLE audio modification library (uncheck the box next to it if you dont get what I mean) don't uninstall it. After disabling AML head back to viper and install the driver again. Now once rebooted is the moment of truth, if you open viper and its installed you're obviously done but if it's not installed you have to take this next step: don't install the driver just yet, go to magisk and re-enable AML then back to viper and install the driver. I don't see why this would not work for you guys, I know this isn't the easiest tutorial to follow but make sure you follow it to a T, if you mess any step up you need to start from scratch and uninstall both AML and viper and start again.
Good luck guys and may the audiophile Gods be on your side through this process!

Take a bow good sir, it worked! Had to follow the steps to the end as first time around it didn't work. Now seems to be alright (see attached)
For anyone else wondering, I upgraded from Aug 9.0 build to Q (020) last night by flashing the factory ROM without wipe. Rooted, ads disabled and now ViperFX working. Life is goooood :angel:

By enabling, I meant turning on the master limiter and other settings. I adjusted mine with a nice YouTube track playing in the background and it all worked a treat. Yet to do my Bluetooth earphones though

I switched on the master and now its working.awesome find
@1dopewrx05 I followed your mini tutorial to a T and it worked perfectly. Thank you for taking the time to do this, I really appreciate it. Just updated my old faithful to 10 earlier and gonna mess around with some of the neat features. I can't live without Viper, it's essential to me.
