Xposed on Nexus 5 and LineageOS 15? - LineageOS Questions & Answers

So i recently re-installed Lineage OS on my old nexus 5 and i was wondering, how can i install Xposed on to it, with framework and app and all that? With the search results online i am not getting really far, i don't quite know what version to install , how to do it etc....
Note: i need Xposed specifically to install multiple custom watchfaces on a huawei watch GT2.
I tried installing a version, but it just reseted my phone, and when i check the Rooted sate of the phone i get "not rooted" or something like that.
I installed LineageOS via TWRP on the phone.
Can you guys help me out here? i did not root or install custom FW on a phone in a loong time and i am out of the loop of recent hacks and stuff.
Thanks in advance

Main point for xposed: what Android version? For xposed I recommend nougat. LinageOS 14.1 is still getting security patches.

first you can flash the latest supersu.zip to root any non rooted rom
second you can follow what LOS developer said about rooting ( flash addonsu-arm-signed.zip ) from the official website

Its already rooted. But you need to "enable" root in Settings>Developer options, just like in CM.
Although I'm confused why the Lineage website says the same; but then also gives instructions on flashing SuperSU (which isn't really necessary)?

i think the root option is totally removed from LOS based rom ( make it optional for users )
and a lot of roms now shipped non rooted some of them came with magisk as root manager with it's features
Hello
This morning, a friend installed this Custom Rom on my HTC One M8.
I just saw that I can not move an application to the micro SD.
Is this a bug in this Custom Rom?
Is there a solution to correct this?
Thank you

This is how is it on the last few version of androids.. I don't remember if it was possible on Lollipop also ? Android 6,7 you cant move apps to sd card. There is other way to do it , "kind of" but its buggy.
Flash the zip then enable in developer options.

Yes all m8 variants ( the regular m8 ) have one build
That's the case with all aosp roms

Lineages OS 14.1 rooted by SuperSU v_2.82 and after rooted if you want to r-w to SD card then should use file FX app to get permission.
This Lineages rom have update by OTA weekly, it's nice and compare to XDA rom RR 7.1.2 both awesome but RR control battery life longer & charging faster due to settle well heating.
My HTC one M8 used Lineage 14.1 for months just try RR 7 1.2 build 20170612 and 20170622 feel very good and hope it will be weekly updated by OTA as per Lineages

I am using my sd card as adoptable storage so does that make any difference? I'm sorry, but I can't understand what you meant when you wrote "if you want r-w to sd card then should use file fx app to get permission." Do you mean there is an app called "file fx?"

Unable to access root

I'm using asus zenfone 2 ze551ml
it's running latest build 21/9/17 of lineage os 14.1
im unable to get root access
i have checked my system folder in root directory through TWRP
Su file is present but although after allowing apps and ADB to get root access in developer setting
the ui which apparently ask for root access is not popping up
and root checker suggests that your device is not properly rooted at all
This problem came up when is switched rom lineage os 14.1 (nougat 7.1.1)
to lineage os 14.1(nougat 7.1.2)
recently updated su addons dated 25/06/2017 are having such a problem for me
plz update the su addon for X86(or firmware) or atleast give me the reason to stay on this rom
Thanks A Lot

Did you upgrade or do a full wipe?
Some stuff that I read indicated that uninstalling old su before installing the new su build was a good idea. It was released for those that had issue with the old one and not really a upgrade.
I recently did a full wipe on my phone (moto z) and used latest su on 7.1.2 without problems.
I suggest checking out what the local forum thread of your device says. If this is a device and build specific issue I'm sure some other people noticed it too.

I know what are you trying to say
That many device uses same su so check you my phones specific
But tbh what is know is there are only 5 devices running x86 cpu zenfone 2,4,5,6
And only one of them is running lineage os 14.1 other dont support officially so they use 13.0 's addon zip
That means only zenfone 2 can flash 14.1's addon su
And FYI I did wiped first
And xiomi's phine are having same problem with this popup
Finally a solution........ That after long desperate efforts worked for me. You can flash the Magisk 13.0 zip. Mind you an upgraded version will lead you to a loop to your custom recovery. Magisk 13.0 is zenfone 2 x86 architecture compatible. Good luck. Just got this solution last night. Tell me if this helped you and also if you found a better way.

I have a MOTO G3 with Android 6.0.1 with CyanogenMod ver 13.0.20160927 nightly. I thought the phone also to be rooted but upon running some checks it appears not to be rooted.
I would like the best way and sequence to remove the CyanogenMod; install the LineageOS, root the phone and install Twrp.
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

First check: is a custom recovery installed?

Lineage 15.1 - Google play store stopped working.

Hi, i can't make it to install google play store on my lineage os. Downloaded Gplay apk, installing with webview enabled and all it does after installing is telling me that it ''stopped''.
Wiped and reinstalled phone and problem still persists. I am not the smartest with phones but just wanted to have custom rom that works well for me but this error is taking away a lot from me.

Play store doesn't work that way. You have to flash GApps together with lineageOS or nanodroid afterwards. You can install alternative app stores like f-droid as apk.
Hi!
Did you follow the steps as described here:
Installing LineageOS from recovery
Look out for step 7 - especially the note in blue colored box.
You may want to make sure to have the “matching” GApps version as well.
For the Samsung S5 the process is similar and it works out just fine.
Good luck!

Redmi Note 8 Custom Firmware Beginner Question

Hey dear xda-dev people,
i have bought a used redmi note 8 pro. And because i want a safe and secure smartphone i would appreciate it that the OS has no google software on it. I read that theres only an unofficial lineage os which is currently not updated anymore. What else custom firmwares are safe, do regulary get updated and doesn't have any google tools? I thought about crDroid.
How do I install custom firmwares and stuff? I'm not a complete beginner - i know adb fastboot etc. but I read that there should be a special situation with the Redmi note 8 pro. I just enabled the dev mode. My device has 128 gb and is actually running on global MIUI-Version 12.0.2. Stabil. The android version is 10QP1A.190711.020.
Can you please help me and spread your knowledge?
Greets,

Seems you didn't even search for it...
Here is a full guide. Flash TWRP > Do a full backup > Install any ROM you want, you can find some of the ROMs here.
I searched for it but i was pretty unsure because i read that a brick can happen very easily with this phone. thanks a lot for your answer!
The phone is now succesfully unlocked. Is the
"5. LR Team TWRP" really the correct twrp for my actual android (10QP1A.190711.020) and miui version (Version 12.0.2). Stabil.
Then I will try to flash it and report. Should I Install something like an antibricktool first?
@newbie922 Do you want to install CFW or nom-CFW custom ROM?
I want to install a cfw without google apps. Also a non cfw with no google apps would be great!
Do you have something which you can recommend? Regulary updates would be cool.

Mabye Havoc OS?
That sounds good. I already read about this both firmwares. But question now is if it's safe to install the LR Team TWRP with my actual android and MIUI-Version. After i succesfully installed twrp I can install the resurrection remix or the havoc os?
Data Encryption is still possible with both of the firmwares?

For Resurrection Remix - follow method #1 from Megathread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-info-psa-redmi-note-8-pro-megathread-cfw.4056527/
For non-CFW ROM - first of all - install TWRP 3.5.1 Unified.
So you mean this twrp for example? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-black-twrp-3-5-1-v2-unified-begonia.4241633/
Concerning the megathread it's not possible to just install a cfw afterwards by flashing it? I have to downgrade to A9 etc. etc.
