Changelog
Only directly show your latest changelog. Some projects get quite long and your users will get "the scrolls" after a while. Put the individual changelogs in CODE and /CODE tags if you can. If you need to link from your changelogs to other pages or threads use the QUOTE and /QUOTE tags instead. The CODE and /CODE tags have a finite length so try to keep it brief enough for each line to fit or make sure you cut the line off by using enter/returns. Please if you use a stock parts (kernel etc.), explicitly state so.
Code:
Current changelog: 11-11-2012
[note] Your changelogs should have tags as well.
[new] The new tag describes a new function in your project.
[changed] The changed tag describes a function that was changed in
this update.

FAQ
The FAQ section in a thread is bound to grow over time, but it may be small to start with, so whether or not you you should hide part of this section is up to you, but you will likely need the most urgent questions in direct view. If questions are short and the answer tends to be long you may choose to hide the answers but not the questions.
Q: DO'S
A: Use normal sized text for any paragraph of texts
A: Paragraphs of text should be black, no exceptions
A: Images are nice, but keep them proportional to your text
A: Use a title -> paragraph stucture, a short and clear title (a subtitle if needed) and put information in the paragraph
A: Use ROM, APP, MOD, TOOL, THEME and GUIDE tags in the development tags in the thread title
A: Use CM9, AOKP, STOCK etc. to describe the project type in the thread title
Q: DON'TS
A: Don't use big font's, unless you use them to create titles.
A: Don't center your text, this breaks the reading flow
Q: Should I put this entire thread one one page or is it okay to distribute it across multiple pages?
A: Whether or you put your project on page or on multiple is entirely up to you, just make sure it feels consistent across all pages.
Q: I have my own thread design, can I use that?
A: Sure thing! But remember consistency is key here, make sure you take away the good things from the template and respect the do's and don't.

[APP][SHARE] Xposed Framework

Original Thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053
Let me introduce the Xposed framework, which gives you the possibility to modify your ROM - without modifying any APK (developers) or flashing (users)!
For a quick start, have a look at XDA's "Android Basics 101" on Xposed: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRR0Flqx9M8
Some technical details:
I extended the /system/bin/app_process executable to load a JAR file on startup. The classes of this file will sit in every process (including the one for system services) and can act with their powers. And even more: I have implemented something that allows developers to replace any method in any class (may it be in the framework, systemui or a custom app). This makes Xposed very powerful. You can change parameters for the method call, modify the return value or skip the call to the method completely - it's all up to you! Also replacing or adding resources is easy, thanks to many helpers in Xposed's API that developers can use.
Advantages:
No need to modify any APKs. This means:
No need to decompile, change things in smali, compile, sign, ...
It will work for odexed and deodexed ROMs.
Your mod is not bound to a specific version of the ROM. Unless there is a major change in the methods called for a certain functionality, your mod will continue to work even when you upgrade your ROM. Many modules work for a wide range of ROMs from different vendors.
Multiple mods can be installed at the same time, even if they modify the same app. So you can use these battery icons and those quick toggles. Even hooking the same method twice is possible. Of course, this only works properly if the mods are not trying to do incompatible things.
It does its magic at runtime. That means that developers can implement settings and do changes based on them (instead of statically forcing a certain behavior). Or you can have some extra logic for certain ROMs, without building different mod versions.
It can be disabled easily without having to reflash.
It's open source and free (as in beer and in speech).
There is a repository with many popular modules.
Download:
You can download the installer from http://dl.xposed.info/latest.apk. The disabler zip from the original threadis only needed if you are in a boot loop.
How to install:
First step for everything you do: Create a nandroid backup and make sure you know how to restore it!
I'm not responsible for anything you do with your phone/tablet/rice cooker.
There is also the risk to soft-brick your device. In such a case, see below for ways to recover from it.
Installation of the framework:
Download the Xposed Installer APK and install it
Launch the Xposed Installer, go to the "Framework" section and click on "Install/Update"
Reboot
Done!
You can verify this by starting the Xposed Installer again and making sure that the numbers in the "Framework" section are green.
If app_process jumped back to an older version (or none at all), you probably have a ROM with S-On or similar, which reverts any changes to /system after a reboot. Use installation via recovery in such cases.
Installation of any modules:
Download <module>.apk (e.g. via the builtin repository browser) and install it
Launch the Xposed Installer and go to the "Modules" section (you will also get there if you click on the notification warning you that the module is not enabled yet)
Enable the module by checking the checkbox
Reboot
Done!
(note that you can install the framework and enable/disable multiple modules at once and reboot afterwards)
In case you get into a boot loop:
First, try using the safemode by pressing any hardware key repeatedly. You can find a short explanation how it works here.
If that doesn't work, you can flash the attached Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip by Tungstwenty. It will be copied to your (external) SD card when you install Xposed as well. The only thing it does is copying /system/bin/app_process.orig back to /system/bin/app_process, which you can also do yourself (e.g. with adb shell in recovery mode).
Modules:
The official repository for Xposed modules, which can also be access from within the app itself (with download/update support), can be found at http://repo.xposed.info
There is also a whole XDA subforum for modules and an index/request thread.
Please don't use the "Xposed General" forum for requests or problems with modules! Use the thread of the module instead.
How to write a module:
If you are an interested developer, give it a try. The development tutorial will help you get started. Further documentation (e.g. how to replace resources) is here. And of course, you can ask your development questions in the "Xposed General" forum.
If you have suggestions for new functions the framework could provide (which means they should be useful for more than your module), you can do this there as well. However, requests that I or somewhen else should write a module for xyz are NOT allowed. Again, this subforum is only about the framework.

https://github.com/rovo89/Xposed (the C++ part)
https://github.com/rovo89/XposedBridge (the Java part)
https://github.com/rovo89/XposedInstaller (Installer app)
Where to get help:
First, read the FAQ and search the "Xposed General" forum. If you don't find your answer there, please check this explanation to find out where you should post your question (e.g. module requests/questions don't belong into the "Xposed General" forum).
Thanks to:
Tungstwenty for his many contributions, both in code and thoughts
XDA admins, news writers and supporters for making Xposed known to so many people
All those volunteers who help answering questions about Xposed
The people who donated to get me a Nexus 5 for earlier KitKat support

[APP][Xposed]GravityBox
GravityBox is a module which primary goal is to provide the users of AOSP devices
with a tweak box to turn their vanilla AOSP ROM into custom ROM packed with additional features and tweaks
without need to flash anything. Most of the preferences can be changed on-the-fly without rebooting.

Dude, with the greatest of respect - you come here with 25 posts, no pevious ROMs, nobody to verify this actually works and you want us to play guinea pig with our £1,400 phones? Can you post some screenshots or photos of your phone to show this actually works? Or, we're just going to have a really expensive paperweight...

pro199282 said:
without that understand you look i post picture odin how flash it btw
Click to expand...

Okay, but thats not evidence that this actually works.
Do you know what a nand erase does buddy? It erases:
boot
recovery
kernel
system
data
cache
.android_secure
sd-ext
datadata
wimax
efs
If people get this wrong then they're going to have a useless device. You have to show us that this actually works.

pro199282 said:
offtopic my thread i guess
nand erase = only userdata erase
look at download mode that same time you do it it show in blue letter erasing userdata and use my new Twrp and nemeses kernel btw its soo nicceee

No, you're wrong. Nand erase erases EVERYTHING!! If you dont know this mate, then you shouldnt be making ROMs. I wont be trying this one.

Okay, if you've proven that this works - why isnt your Knox tripped?

Also, please go back to the main page and read the rules. It clearly states you need screenshots of the ROM working on your device.
I know we all have busy lives and don't have time to go through a list of long winded rules, so here's a shortened version to make your life easier
Only the following topics are allowed in DEVELOPMENT area:
[DEV] - Development for any special projects or Apps
[ROM] - Custom ROMs
[KERNEL] - Custom Kernels (usually found in Original Development)
[MOD] - Hack & Modifications for the phone with code only, zips go in themes and apps
[FIX] - Fixes for known issues & bugs
[R&D] - Research & Development for Devs only, when gathering data for a new projects
[HOWTO] / [GUIDE] - How to instructions and Guides (Most of the time should be in General)
Note: If you are unsure where your new topic should go, then please post it to General
Please Include Screen Shots for ROM / MOD / THEME / Apps & Games, when possible as it's expected by our members
DEV Support for ROM / KERNEL / MOD / THEME must be provided within XDA thread posted by the Developer, otherwise it won't count as a Development, and in turn it'll be considered [INFO]rmation / [REF]erence and moved to General
Unmodified Stock ROM and Source Codes does not count as a DEVELOPMENT project unless it's part of an active project you have already started
Password must be provided for all password protected files
Direct download links preferred, due to stipulations stated in forum rule #11
Extra emphasis on rule #12
All ROM / MOD / DEV / etc... found in the DEV section not created by the DEV themselves does not qualify as a development and will be moved to General. It should be properly tagged as [INFO] or [REF], with links to the source website were it was found
Please keep all non Development relevant chatter off the DEV project topics, feel free to create a new topic in General for non Development comments about specific ROM / MOD / THEME / etc... valid replies within a DEV project are: BUG Reports, Problem, Troubleshooting Steps & Logs.
... and Please! keep all your personal bickering via PMs, do not pollute the forum with your personal indifferences.
If you have a problem with a specific member please contact the Moderators for help, that's what we're here for, but we are not babysitters, we are here to gather, organize and provide useful information for our over priced phones

Good job. Current installed Rom on my device.

The file says "gapps" in its name, but the instructions say to download gapps - meaning that it would be a seperate installation. Does this ROM have baked-in Gapps? It's certainly large enough, I think.

Using BlissROM as a daily driver! Very stable, smooth, and low in temperatures! There are a couple of issues, however. For instance, certain QS icon customisation make the main icon (like the Wi-Fi or Bluetooth symbol) invisible against the white background. Another would be that certain options seem to do nothing. An example of this would be the FPS counter in the "Realme Settings" section. Another thinmg that I noticed is that the "Smooth 90 fps" option actually makes the display very choppy and slow. Besides that, everything is fine. Good job!

Custom roms that work for S9+ sm-G965U?

I've heard there aren't many options because this particular model is difficult to unlock the bootloader.. however, I have managed to find someone who helped me get it unlocked and I would really like to install a custom rom on it that removes all the bloatware, removes gapps, and also gets rid of Bixby. Is there anything like this that exists for the the Samsung Galaxy S9+ SM-G965U? What would you recommend? I am also on Snapdragon 845 and Android 10 if that helps.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I just realized I posted in the wrong forum. I don't see an option to delete this thread so if a moderator could delete this I will post in the correct forum now. Thank you

That's the million dollar question!

I take it there's nothing out there eh? So disappointing. It wouldn't be possible to install a rom for SM-G965F onto the SM-G965U would it? So long as the bootloader is unlocked, will it cause problems?

mind sharing how you unlocked the bootloader or who you had do it

Greetings everyone,
I am new to this, but, have learned a lot: and there's a lot to learn.
I have successively ROM-Ed my Phone from ATT Samsung 9 PLUS G965U (ARB7) Android 8.0 to Android 8.0 R16NW.G965U1UEU1ARBG, (My phone says SM-G965U1), using great information in the forum.
My question is in two parts, (I want to stay in Android 8);
1 - My network is in SPRINT, do I stay where I am at, for that network, or do , I ROM to SPRINT using Sprint Android 8.0.0 G965USQU1ARBG? I will need that file, if I do.
2 - I would like to get OREO 8.1 on the phone, and stop there; I like OREO 8.1 - Does anyone here, know where I can get it? And how to install in regards to the above?
Thank you..

Worked like a charm for me. It's a service you gotta pay for. I took the leap though and wasn't disappointed. They're legit.

I second that! This worked for me too, as of this morning. But the main goal was to install something newer than Android 10 to my outdated smartphone.
Yes, it's now unlocked, rooted, on a custom kernel, with TWRP and with all possible warnings about running a modified software. But still on a stock ROM.
And now I'm puzzled - what can I do next?

Ok, I've just installed PixelExperience (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-12-unofficial-pixelexperience-plus-for-s9-s9-and-n9.4513473/) and it worked well!
I had to edit an Installer file inside the zip archive. There's a place with "assert" keyword where it compares the model/product name with "star2qltechn", and I had to modify it to "star2qlte" so that it could pass the check and continue.
Installed it through TWRP: first V4 TomKernel, then PE, then basic Gapps, and voi la!
(still need to fix Bluetooth editing some property file)

Could you share the edited zip or tell me specifically where you edited?

\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script
There's a line I edited:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "star2qlte" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "star2qlte" || abort("E3004: This package is for device: star2qltechn; this device is " + getprop("ro.product.device") + ".");

I was able to install crdroid and pixel experience just by doing what @_SlaSh_ did I just had to modify the bluethot thingy and that was it.

Between Crdroid and PixelExperience, which one do you like more?

Well first used Pixel and the truth is good enough fluid system but I had a problem with whatsapp backups and the camera when you want to use whats web but other than that I would say that would return to it if not for that detail
Cr I changed it because of the problem of whats although the backups worked but the same problem of whats web still remains
but what I did see an improvement is that cr lets you modify issues that Pixel not as notifications, the status bar and others,
the other 2 I want to wait for a next update to test them.
