Xposed for A7 2016 - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

Hello Sirs
I want to install xposed on my (SM-A710FD) phone which is 5.1.1 android

This is a 2017 series.

For what do you need Xposed? I have tried it on my tablet and there is little to no use for Xposed. Maybe I change my mind if you tell me some good modules.

The problem with Xprivacy is that it is quite hard to understand. There are no community driven settings like in uBlock Origin (adblocker for pc). Nor there are options for temporary allowance. Besides, Android 6 already has permissions per app.

What is there to understand? My 13 year old nephew managed to set it up.
Android 6 does not offer this many options. Can you stop an app getting your IMEI or Phone serial details? Why does an app need your IMEI?
It comes with default settings such as location (Christmas island) IMEI 00000000 etc.
1-Install the correct version of Xposed for your device.
2-Install Xprivacy app.
3-Launch, allow Root, click on Template and set each permission request to block.
4-Reboot phone, launch Xprivacy, see if template has been applied.
5-Install an app or game. You'll get notification from Xprivacy with template applied.
6-Allow the permissions that the app needs. Eg Firefox browser needs Internet,Network,IPC,System allowed to work.
For games I don't allow any permissions and it still works.
If you need to allow temporary permissions just launch Xprivacy and turn it off for that app.

Blocking everything isn't a solution as apps need for example the shell and filesystem to store setting files at first startup.
There are sub permissions which are quite unclear if you can disable them. Plus, after every app update the new nag screens come up and apps might not work anymore. You say Firefox needs ABC. But how to know what each app needs at bare minimum?

You are not blocking everything for ever.
The template is set to block all at first app install so that the app doesn't get access to sensitive information that it doesn't need. You can deny the sub permissions if you want but this can effect how the app behaves. You don't need to mess with the sub permissions.
At every app update Xprivacy will re apply the permissions that you've already set for that app. You don't need to re do it.
As to allowing Shell and system at first start up go back into Xprivacy and allow these permissions/ re launch app.
The ABC for Firefox was an example. Firefox is a web browser so obviously it needs data access. Root Explorer obviously needs Shell, and System and so on.It is easier then you think.
Once you have setup all the permissions for your apps and they are working Xprivacy has a function to save or export your setup. So that if you change ROM all you need to do is import it and it will do the rest.
If you read the link I included all the answers to your questions are there. Google is useful too.

Any idea for apps permission control ?

It seems the App Ops cannot work properly on Firephone without root, so any idea for apps permission control?
This is an Android 4.4.4. based device, so root it, install app-ops or Xposed and similar modules.
An app like "Advanced Permission Manager" is no feasible option either, free version is limited and with the concept of this app, you would have to make more than one compromise.
"APK Permission Remover" is just as bad, because you would be forced to change the permissions each time before installing an app (same general idea, since it's from the same developer).

Help me, please! SECURITY ALERT(CODE 2)

Every time when I turn the game "Rush'n'Krush" on my Android, I see message "SECURITY alert(code 2) [xposed] " and the app shuts down. What should I do?

edit: after rebooting my device I thought the error was gone but it pops up and the game crashes anyone find a solution maybe its a conflicting module idk I am using a OPO running Exodus Rom 5.1..1
we an application that has function like "root cloak" to hide xposed installer.
I don't know so much about xposed, but can we rename the xposed package to another name so the game doesn't detect the Xposed?

UPDATE!!!!!! XPOSED SECURITY ALERT CODE 2 FIX / SOLUTIONS
*** A NEW THREAD WITH ALL THE MOST RECENT INFO IS HERE:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-security-alert-code-2-netmarble-t3400258/
It is maintained & up to date!
============================================================================
Original initial post:
Hope this helps others. I have tried everything EXCEPT uninstalling xposed: rootcloak, xprivacy, xposed blacklist, lucky patcher, etc.
I am running lollipop 5.01 with unofficial xposed v8x for samsung. Xposed installer is a system app, the modules are not.
Using a file manager app with root, in the /data/data folder,
simply rename the folder called de.robv.android.xposed.installer
( i rename it to de.robv.android.xposed.installer2 )
Then launch the game, future fight. (Works fine for me)
you do not have to reboot! Just rename the folder.
When you are done with game and exit it, dont forget to rename
the xposed installer folder in /data/data back to de.robv.android.xposed.installer
It would be nice if someone could make an app or xposed module that could
simply toggle the renaming of the /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer folder!
I did not have to disable any modules or even reboot: simply renaming the folder above was all it took to get past the xposed security alert 2 error that prevents the game from running. Funny thing is, the xposed modules are running undetected, you just cant change module settings while the de.robv.android.xposed.installer folder is renamed.
My conclusion is that netmarble is somehow looking for specific folders/files as their way of detecting "anti-cheat" - which xposed is not!!!!
Hope this helps others out who want to play, but uninstalling xposed is a deal breaker!

You can use Tasker to automate the renaming process.
Sent from my LG G2 Mini using XDA Labs
re: tasker
Ive looked at tasker. It would appear that it lacks a "rename" function for files: it only gives options for create, delete, copy, move, zip, etc - but no rename.
Thanks for the suggestion, however,
I guess I will just stick with the root file manager manual renaming method.
Just wanted to play Marvel Future Fight without uninstalling xposed framework/installer.
I have been playing it for a while now, and like I said, dont have to uninstall/disable modules or even reboot. Ive seen alot of others having same issue with netmarble games / future fight.
Its actually a pretty neat game! Its ashame netmarble and other companies are calling xposed a "3rd party cheating application" lmao.

To rename, you copy the old directory in the same place with the new name and then you delete the old directory.

future fight / rush n krush xposed security alert code 2 fix
Just downloaded rush n krush from playstore. It gives the same xposed security alert code 2 and quits.
Using the renaming folder trick i discovered, rush n krush also works!
This method should work on other netmarble games too.
xposed security alert code 2 FIX:
(1) Using a file manager app with root, in the /data/data folder,
simply rename the folder called de.robv.android.xposed.installer
( i rename it to de.robv.android.xposed.installer2 )
(2) Then launch the game, future fight. (Works fine for me)
you do not have to reboot! Just rename the folder.
(3) When you are done with game and exit it, dont forget to rename
the xposed installer folder in /data/data back to de.robv.android.xposed.installer
Dear all ,we have other functions, to solve this problems?

Interesting. I will try it as soon as possible and let you know.
Edit:
It works. Now I can play 7knight again. Thank you very much
I also made the tasker to get the job done automatically
Re: tasker
Although tasker might work, I actually found a much better solution:
An app on the google play store called "automate"
Its much better than tasker, i think
(1) It supports file/folder renaming - its faster to rename a folder VS having to copy files to a new folder then delete, then having to reverse the copy/delete folder to restore xposed data
(2) it supports tasker's plugins
(3) you can add an icon to the desktop to run the task ( without a console popping up like Smanager )
(4) ITS FREE to download, unlike TASKER, but can be upgraded to premium
(5) it uses flowcharts to design your tasks, and essentially does everything tasker can do
Now I have an icon on the desktop that:
(A) Launches Future Fight
(B) renames the XPOSED folder as in my early posts
(C) monitors Future Fight app is running
(D) restores XPOSED folder's original name when you exit the game
Works like a champ!
I uploaded it to the Automate Community ( Marvel Future Fight in category Games )
If anyone else wants to use automate to play Future Fight with xposed. ENJOY!

Netmarble games , xposed security alert code 2 errors fix soultion
I uploaded Seven Knights ( automate community ).
Install "automate" from playstore. Download future fight or seven knights from automate communtity.
be sure to enable the required permissions automate tells you it needs for the script!
Then to play other netmarble games, just use either the future fight or seven knights as a template to create a new launcher.....
In automate, edit the flowchart... long press on a block & select all, then copy the flowchart.
Create a new flowchart and paste the copied blocks.
Then you just need to edit a few blocks:
1. In the flow beginning, change the title to your game. Also, click on the Install Homescreen Shortcut to
Add a launcher icon on your desktop.
2. In the Start App Main Activity block, change the package to your game, then change the activity class
To your games .main.activity.
3. In the When in Foreground App block, change the package to your game.
Save by clicking Done. Then try out your shortcut on your desktop.
This should work for ALL netmarbles games! ( at least until they change their xposed detection methods )
Ive worked very hard and spent many hours coming up with this solution.
please give thanks for my efforts if my posts have been helpful!
XDA-DEVELOPERS is THE BEST TECHNICAL WEBSITE! PERIOD!
I am glad that to be able to contribute something back to the community.
Update re: automate scripts
The future fight / seven knights automate scripts uses a
detect app running in foreground to determine when to
restore the renamed /data/data xposed folder's name...
What this means is that if you task switch ( change focus to another app )
Then automate will assume youve exited the game, and restore xposed....
This will cause game to detect xposed and give the error code.
this only happens if you minimize / switch apps. Games run fine so
long as you keep it in foreground.
I will check into automate and see if theres a way to use a detect running apps
instead of the detect foreground app. ( i am noob to automate and just learning )
Anyways, just wanted to point that out to other users...
*** UPDATE ***
OK, I did find a way to do the above. It required an additional plugin to detect running apps
vs the native detect foreground apps....
I uploaded an updated version of MARVEL FUTURE FIGHT (UPDATED) to automate community:
This updated version requires a tasker plugin called "TASKER PROCESSES RUNNING (KC)" - BE SURE TO DOWNLOAD IT FROM PLAYSTORE ( IT IS FREE )
This version allows you to minimize the game / switch to other apps, then back to the game WITHOUT causing the xposed security alert code 2 to trigger.
You could use this updated version as a template to create launchers for other netmarble games
that give nasty xposed security alert code 2 errors...
To do so is basically the same as the past post, only difference is that the
foregound app running block is now the plugin (puzzle piece with ?) Block
Click on it & configure button - then choose your game from the app list.
Of course, the older version works without the extra plugin, only catch is that
the game must stay in active foreground to prevent xposed detected error in game,
whereas the updated version solves that issue.
I would update automate launchers for other netmarble games, but since i do not
have them on my tab, i cant create them. If others create them and upload to automate community, please be sure in the uploaded description to include "Thanks DeepPurple72 !"
Feel free to CLICK THANKS.

Just some info :
Is automate support yes/no dialog?
I use yes/no dialog on tasker to confirm rename or not when minimize the game
If automate support yes/no dialog, you can use it
Automate does support several yes/no functions in its flowcharts.
like i said earlier, i am noob to automate and just learning some of it.
it is an alternative to tasker, and even supports taskers plugins, without
the need of tasker being installed. Automate is free, tasker is not!
If you are a tasker user, I would HIGHLY recommend that you at least download
AUTOMATE from the playstore and check it out! I think it can do everything
that tasker can do & like i said, even can use tasker plugins too.
you can easily share your scripts with the community directly from
within the app itself too - which is a major plus! :good:
The updated future fight script works great! I can switch to another app & then back to game without any issues. It checks for running processes every 10 seconds to determine when game has been exited.
so you need to wait about 10secs after exiting game before opening xposed installer or changing modules settings ( youll get an xposed error if you run xposed before the script restores the data folder's name). You could change the polling interval in the processes running block, but doing so could
effect cpu usuage / possibly cause lag in games.
But reguardless, the goal was to be able to run netmarble games without sacrificing xposed.
You can manually rename the folder as in the earlier posts, or use one of the automate scripts,
or create your own method/scripts using other apps. How you choose to do it is up to you.
The main thing that I wanted to share with others is the fact that YES you can run netmarble games
without having to uninstall xposed or have to reboot...
Renaming the xposed installer's data folder before running game, then restoring the folders name
after you quit the game is the best solution, since it can be done on-the-fly.
The automate scripts are optional for those who do not feel comfortable using root file managers
to do the renaming or having to create scripts of their own.
I am lazy and like to just click on a single icon that does it all for me! LoL
---------- Post added at 03:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------
I am looking into making a toggle on/off xposed generic script for automate & will upload it to automate community once it has been tested.
In theory, you can have an icon on the desktop that can check if the original folder exists and rename it or vice-versa + pop up a toast message to let you know the current state. This could work as a generic universal xposed switch for netmarble games and an alternative to creating a launcher for each game.
---------- Post added at 04:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:10 PM ----------
Ok, the TOGGLE XPOSED script works & has been uploaded to automate community!
It is titled "bypass Netmarble's XPOSED Security Alert Code 2" under GAMES category.
Note: edit the flowchart, tap on the BEGINNING block, then tap on the
INSTALL HOMESCREEN SHORTCUT button to add an icon to your desktop!

[Privacy] Modifying Permissions for System Apps

Hi there,
For the benefit of increased privacy, how can I modify the permissions (such as microphone, camera, body sensor access) for system apps, like System UI or Accessibility etc?
I wish to have access to such permissions to choose what I feel is required/necessary.
My phone (G985F) is rooted with Magisk and I have already removed/frozen a bunch of bloatware but like I mentioned would like to revoke some permissions for 'system apps'.
Please can someone assist me or point me in the right direction, thanks heaps.
Andy.

Thanks for your reply. I think you may have misunderstood what I'm asking here, while what you've shared is relating to modifying app permissions installed on the phone, it does not allow modification of 'system app' permissions as I stated I'm trying to do in my post. Currently, upon attempting to do this for say System UI (a system app/service) for example - I am unable to revoke microphone permissions due to it being greyed out and saying "Device needs this permission to operate".

Its probably because those permissions are a must for the phone to operate. Somethings are just needed to make a device work.

Not exactly what you want but Package Disabler Pro can disable system apps completely without root, I tried disabling certain permissions but couldn't find a way, just to disable it completely

Theres also CCSWE app manager which also has the ability to disable system apps and i think individual processes within the app, if you know exactly what your looking for.

Question With Root Moving app to system app.

I have never created a thread before because I normally can find my answers by browsing. However, in this situation, I come up snake eyes each and every time. If this is the wrong place to post, I apologize. I am trying to move a GPS app to a system app. However, when I try to move it, I get an error that there is not enough space in the system ROM (/system) for this. (There is only 2.73 MB free.) I do not need much as I am only looking to move this one gps spoofing app. I have tried everything I could find to do from uninstalling system apps, etc., but no matter what I do, it stays free space 2.73 MB. Any help is most definitely appreciated as I am at a loss, and this was the only thing I rooted to do. Please help!
Edit: I forgot to say it earlier, but I am not a pro at all this so speak to me as if I were 10 yrs old. Thanks alot!
You can use lucky patcher to rebuild/install fake gps apps as system apps. Copying by hand is not gonna do the trick.
There should be plenty of tutorials out there, just search for something along the lines:
Spoof GPS Pokemon Go Luckypatcher
Beware though, that those tutorials will not have been written with Android 12 in mind; I have not yet meddled with GPS spoofing with my P6 and do not know whether Google has implemented certain mechanisms to prevent spoofing system apps. You might get into a bootloop or even softbrick your device (I'd say rather unlikely, but there's always a certain chance).
Magisk is your friend. Not very complicated. Create a module with a /system/app or priv-app directory.

He said that he is not a pro and needs everything explained like a 10 year old, you're sure that creating a magisk module isn't a tad too much to ask?
There are solutions that only require a couple clicks in a premade app interface, intuitive and easy. Going in and coding a couple lines is not my definition of 10 year old not pro stuff. I mean it's not a big deal breaker, there are plenty of tutorials to go around (topjohnwu even offers templates), but it still requires some knowhow and poses more risk.
I appreciate your help but I have already done all the recommendations. As I said, when I uninstall apps from the system ROM I gain no space. I have been using lucky patcher to move files to system apps but it says there is not enough room. This is why I asked, according to what I read, it should have worked. I don't know if I am doing it wrong , but when I try to move app to a system app, I click on it and choose tools and move to system/app in lucky. Any help to help me with this issue is really appreciated.
Install the attached version of the App Systemizer Magisk module and reboot. Open a terminal (install Termux app from Play Store if you need a terminal app), su [enter], systemize [enter] and follow the instructions.
If you are willing to share the APK, I can make a magisk module to install it as a system app.

At the menu, type 1 and hit enter. It'll bring up a list of all installed apps, with a number next to each one. Type in the number of the app and hit enter. It'll probably throw an error, but the app should still be systemized - I've seen seen errors since Android 11 but it's always worked

Thank you! I got it as a system app but for some reason when I click on the app it doesn't load and freezes. Any ideas are much obliged!

Question My banking application will not allow me to enter that I am using Whatsapp PLUS

Hi.
Today I needed to pay something through my banking application, but the application did not allow me access because it detected malicious software on my phone and it is Whatsapp PLUS, which I have to uninstall in order to enter the banking application.
What should I do now if I use Whatsapp PLUS all the time, but at the same time I need access to my banking application?
How does a banking application detect that I am using an illegal Whatsapp Plus application?
Is there a way around it?
Thanks a lot.
And for info root I have over Magisk.
This might seem trivial, but have you tried revoking the "Get info about installed apps" permission?
Most apps use this to index all your apps and check for so-called "malicious" package names.

What should I do?
Even if I freeze WhatsApp via titanium backup, the bank's application still notifies me that there is malicious software on my device - WhatsApp.
That I should just uninstall it.

go to your banking app's "App Info" page, under permissions, look for "Get info about installed apps" and if it is "Allowed", change it to "Deny"
this is assuming you are on MIUI. I'm sure other ROMs also have a similar permission.

What is the package name of your whatsappPlus app? You should find it in the "App Info" page for the app. Should be something like "com.whatsapp"

There is no such setting about allowing the installation of applications under permissions - allowed / deny

In that case you either modify the app itself - use apk editor to decompile app , edit manifest.xml and remove permissions like "query all packages" from it . Compile the app and run it again. This might work but if app is protected in some way that it detects modification you might get banned from it or worse :/
Other way is to isolate WhatsApp Plus by using tools like virtual xposed - basically a virtual container. You can install WhatsApp in there and it shouldn't cause any issues but I'm not sure you'll be able to receive notifications... ( You can try installing bank app in there instead but I'm not sure how that'll work... Either it will detect root/xposed or the container itself will allow querry all packages to seep through into main os - this depends on whether virtualxposed has declared permission for querying packages or not )
Third option is probably the best one - Uninstall and use web browser to access banking.
maybe whatsapp plus is indeed malicious
use malwarebytes for android to check whether whatsapp plus is malicious or not
