Xposed on VZ non-dev Android 4.4 - Moto X Themes and Apps

Just wanted to check if any folks here have tried installing Xposed framework on a non-developer edition Moto X (I have VZ) on Kitkat.
Any issues faced like force close etc? Also I read that MotoXposed does not work, what other extensions are people using on Xposed on 4.4? Does Gravitybox, Xprivacy etc work fine?

It works fine for me, you just need root and access to write to system. Two threads in original development have guides for this.

Just use GravityBox [KK] from the modules section of XposedInstaller. Works perfectly and has tons more tweaks than MotoXposed.

I second that. Using GB KK and it has all the main interface tweaks that I need. No FC. MotoXposed doesn't even work in KK, so don't even bother trying it.

List of Xposed Modules for Moto X (Update 4 September 2013)

I've been trying various Xposed mods with my Moto X (413.9.0Q2.X-116-LCX-26); but a lot of them break the ROM. Would cause the device to get stuck on boot.
I'm assuming a mod would need to be specifically made for the Moto X. If someone is willing/clever enough to work on it, I'd be more than happy to contribute with testing/building the UI.
Some of the (specific) things I think people would be happy to see on a Moto X Xpose Mod:
• Phone Face Down action (mute/vibrate call)
• Remove Carrier Label from the statusbar (top left corner)
• Quick Unlock on PIN entry (instead of having to press 'Enter')
• Various status bar modifications (battery icons, colours on icons, centre clock)
• Solid black Navbar
• Quick Settings pull down options (left/right side on statusbar pull down)
• Quick Settings toggles options
As of Xposed Framework ver 2.2, the framework works on our Moto X.
Xposed Framework is required for the following modules to work. Grab the latest Xposed Framework installer from this thread:
[FRAMEWORK ONLY!] Xposed - ROM modding without modifying APKs
Available modules made specifically for Moto X
[XPOSED] MotoXposed - Hide carrier label, center clock by @rob43 (added on September 4, 2013)
List of available modules that are untested, and/or made for "every" Android device (warning: some might be incompatible with our Moto X stock ROM)
[INDEX][XPOSED] Collection of XPOSED Modules
Available modules that have been tested by @flashallthetime and known to work with Moto X (original thread: Xposed framework beta 2 mod your stock rom)
Mods that are safe to use:
App settings ( dual panel )
Enable Camera on lock screen ( I don't think this works)
Gravity box 2.2.1 ( multiple mods )
Maximize widgets
MoDaCo ( multiple mods to system and system ui)
Samsung stock jelly bean 1.0 ( battery mods)
Xbatteries(battery mods)
XBlast tools 1.5.1 ( multiple mods)
Xlocky ( lock screen mods)
XthemeEngine ( themes)
Digitalbluebattery ( battery mods)
[Xthemes] Mega Collection
Most of the mods are developed for Sammy phones but I was using dual panel mod on my lenovo tablet without issue, I believe there' s also a mod for installing themes for Roms without theme manager apk
Just tried it also and I was in a bootloop, thank God I download cwm xposed uninstaller, guess it could be that our ROM is odex but just guessing

Well I got xposed framework installed, download the beta 2 version

My two all time favorite mods would be:
Escalate ring tone while phone is in pocket.
Change location and sizes of soft keys. IE, back key on right and multitasking on left. I sort of got used to it from my s3
Can someone please compile a list of which mods did not soft brick your device? I don't want to go around blind flashing mods on a device that I don't have the stock ROM for, in case things go sour. Not a huge fan of restoring CWM backups, only for emergencies.
Yah I can do that as I started a thread in themes and app section

OP is updated; to streamline the thread make it a master list for all Xposed Modules for Moto X.
Hidea can you copy my links that I have in my xposed thread in the themes and apps section? If so, I'll have one of the mods remove my thread, we're all going to get confused with what is what and when and how

They work fine, however winterboard works better. If saurik releases the update to substrate we can start using that.

Thanks for testing. What mods did you use with gravity box? I tried using gravity box and I kept getting 'system ui has crashed' pop-up. Had to uncheck it in xposed app. I'd like to get rid of the nav bar and use pie. Now when I install gravity box, it won't even load. Strange

I have no issue with using multiple xposed modules but keep in mind I unlocked My bootloader to root this amazing phone. I think that makes a difference, 2 other modules similar to gravity box are MoDaCo and xblast. Try those and see if they work

I'm using GravityBox, AppSettings & MotoXposed. Not getting any system ui crashes. Did you install the modules while in recovery mode?

So does that mean we can use cm themes such as mianogen theme with xthemes in xposed? Or does it have to be an xtheme theme. Also which update for substrate are we looking for? It looks like the latest update is focusing on 4.3 already

[Q] Rom question !!

Hi Guys!
Just got my nexus 5, I was wondering as to which current ROM's available offer any of the following :
1) Halo
2) PIE control
Thanks in advance !
Not sure about ROMs but if you're happy with the stock ROM and just want those two features then you can install the Xposed Framework and download Gravity Box for PIE control and XHalo modules. I know the Gravity Box module is functional, not sure about Halo since I don't use it. Hope this helps.

just go through the roms and read the op's, they list all the features

Thank you, i will look into Xposed Framework. One question though, does installing Xposed Framework require the device to be rooted ? I know i have to root the device to install a custom ROM but was just wondering if Xposed Framework can be installed without rooting.

I looked through all the ROMs in the nexus 5 sections, only a few of them list change logs the rest just instructions on how to install the ROM. I believe there was just ROM thread that actually listed out all the features added to the ROM.
I understand that nexus 5 development is in its early stages and I do not expect to see full feature functionality for a while. Being kinda new to the android scene i am still trying to understand all the terminology used so change logs really dont elaborate on anything yet. Thank you though

1) you don't need root to flash custom ROMs. Only custom recovery. You do however, have to unlock your bootloader.#
2) Yes, Xposed needs root.

Should/Can I have two different kernels and modules at the same time ?

I rooted my phone I have twrp recovery "closed framework", "gravity box kk" And I want to know if I can use two different xposed modules at the same time the thing I listed above help me give my phone the knock knock feature and I want to use xposed installer to get more modules and features... is it safe to do this?

your kernel completely controls your phone, it ties the cpu to tbe os and to the rest of the hardware. its impossible to run two kernels. which would control your phone? it is literally the brains mass of your phone.
I use YouTube AdAway, Pandora Patcher, App Settings, Xposed Lockscreen Wallpaper, Play Store Fixer, MinMin Guard, 30 Volume Steps, Xposed GEL Settings, Alarm Clock Plus and a few more...
So, yes.

To give a more simple answer:
- You can't have 2 kernels at the same time
- You can have multiple Xposed modules at the same time
Also, questions belong in the Q&A section of the forums.
Thank you

BTW kernels and Xposed are two completely different things. I assume by the title you're using a custom kernel, not Xposed, to use Double Tap to Wake feature. You can only install one kernel at a time. If you flash another kernel, the other one gets overwritten.
As far as Xposed goes, use as many modules as you want.

You can use multiple xposed modules. Just keep in mind xposed modules can conflict with each other if they both do the same thing.

Which Xposed Modules Are You Using?

Hello. I am running cm12.1 on my 6045I thanks to the work of the OP in the cm thread. I have Xposed installed with two modules: GravityBox and Instagram Downloader.
I thought I would start a thread for us to share which modules we are using and what our experiences have been. Please chime in.

You'd be better off to check in the xposed for 5.1.1 thread and review the list of modules they say will work with 5.1.1. It should give you a good start. In some cases you can work around issues for example I had the speed monitoring module installed which doesn't work with 5.1.1 but was able to turn on a similar feature in gravitybox which does.

Xposed conflict with camera mods in MM

After lots of tries i found there is a problem between Xposed and All other camera mods for our Z3 (i have no info about other phones like Z2). So we cant use Xposed + Pexocam or Cyberian or... in Marshmallow (there is no problem with LP!) and it gives u something like this message: "Camera is in use by another application, please close other apps..."
(Note i tested with both .575 and .570)
Anyone has a workaround or has both Xposed and camera mod without problem??

I have xposed v85 and have used both of those mods. Likely it's a module than xposed as a whole as I have no trouble.
Have you confirmed it works without xposed installed? Maybe it's another mod?

Yeah I confirm its Xposed, Without it everything works fine
I just had gravity box on xposed but i cleared its data so that must be a xposed problem
I confirm again
Tried once again with just xposed installed (all modules except greenify - which is inactive- were uninstalled) and camera mods not working.
I dont know how this could happen since you have both xposed and camera mods!
I did this:
flashed rom --> flashed Pexocam v8 --> Everything working fine --> Flashed latest Xposed --> Pexocam not working!!!

Flash xposed first.
I always flash ROM, Xposed, then mods.
Tbh it shouldn't make much difference but something to try.
I'm on MWA 5.0.0 by Pandemic.
If you use custom ROM perhaps something has been edited that the camera required to function?
There's a lot of variables here :/
Could try another ROM with xposed and camera mod and see if it works?
Troubleshooting is gonna suck on this one as it works for some and not others.
Well i tested flashing xposed then camera, makes no difference
I use stock pre-rooted .575, it mustn't be problem because i had that problem with .570 too but there wasn't any problem with LP roms with same xposed version!
I saw some other people had this problem, i used almost all of their solution like clearing data and cache, completely removing camera then installing new mod, etc, but non of them works. That's a xposed problem and idk what's wrong!
Note that I'm using D6633 variant

Its "not" an xposed problem, its quite easy to blaim xposed but i use it a long time and totally no issues with it, maybe is it just the camera mod or duplicated lines in the end of your build.prop !

I use xposed for a long time too and I never had any issues with it - thanks to its creator - but whenever i uninstall xposed, camera mods work well. Idk if there is any problem with build.prop but it mustn't be camera mod problem since many users installed it successfully.
Do you have superuser mod?
Are you using the versión of MM?
latest versión?
Logs?

1. I had Rajeev's Superusermod for cyberian camera III since it was needed but for PexoCam i didn't flash it.
2. I use MM version
3. Everything is at latest version
4. No logs
Hello, sorry that I've dug out an old post. But yes, my Xposed is also conflicting with camera mods (both Cyberian & Pexocam). Camera mods worked when Xposed framework was not installed but once installed, crashed.
Have you found any workaround?
On stock pre-rooted .575 (D6653) as well.
Thanks!
I haven't found any workaround yet
Maybe professionals could help us if they see this thread
