With the recent release of framework 71 released here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 xposed framework can now be installed on the idol 3 without causing boot loops. Xposed for Lollipop is still in alpha so you may find that some modules still don't work but the handful I tried including gravitybox for lollipop worked fine. Xposed also has a module to fix a memory leak in 5.0.x roms which I highly recommend running. Make sure you install the arm64 framework along with the apk....if you run into issues you can flash the uninstaller via recovery and it will remove the framework.
There are many modules available now to customize the stock rom.
Thanks for your information.
I am so excited to try it.
I would like to confirm, do I just need to root my phone and then install xposed? If I failed, is it only way to flash uninstaller via TWRP recovery?

Well Xposed requires root so yes you will have to be rooted...if the xposed framework fails to boot you can run the xposed uninstaller. You will need to inquire in the xposed for lollipop thread I linked to for more details and directions.
All I did however was flash the xposed amd64 framework 71 zip file (from TWRP and then rebooted into the ROM) and then installed the xposed-installer 3.0 alpha apk....then I went into the framework section in the apk and it showed the framework was installed and working...I've since loaded a handful of modules: (App Settings, BootManager, Fix Lollipop Memory Leak, GoogleOfflineVoice, Gravitybox [LP], Network Speed Indicator, Notifyclean, Rootcloak (can be used to hide root from the system update checker so you can check for updates as normal however don't DOWNLOAD them till you've fully unrooted), Secure Settings Xposed Module, Statusbar download progress, StopSwitchDelay, XInstaller, XInternalSD and XVoice+) all of which seem to be operating normally.
YouTube adaway works for me
If anyone finds a way to add reboot to bootloader and recovery to the power down menu I'd like to hear about it. All the modules I've tried (APM, gravitybox etc) have failed.

I've just been using QuickBoot for now. I'll check out Xposed shortly, just installing it now.

I've been using the app "RebootManager"....I've used QuickBoot in the past but was hoping to find either a way to enable it in settings or a way to enable it in xposed but don't seem to be able to replace or add to the "power down" menu in the idol. Annoying. I also remember there being a module to make the kindle app act more like an ebook reader but it must not be compatible with Lollipop since I don't see it in the module list.

EDIT: Nevermind, was for Samsung devices only.
Thanks for the news on Xposed. Will definitely have to install it later.

Yeah, I tried some of the Xposed modules that are supposed to do that... None of them work, I expect because Alcatel has 'skinned' the reboot dialog. It certainly doesn't look like the stock Android one.
does the XPrivacy module work?
you might try toggles

i use a app called "Power Toggles" toggles can be added to taskbar, widget and lock screen. most toggles do not need root but some do. there is a toggle i use that gives shut down options when clicked. the options are as follows, ( power off , restart , recovery mode , bootloader. ) this app works sweet as i have the toggles to pull down from taskbar on any page, you can also create your own shortcuts as a toggle. i have been using this app on several devices for 3 years. does not need xposed. Note this does not add these options to your power button.
finally! so happy to have xposed running on this. gravity box is a must. mix it with xposed gel settings (to hide app dock) and use custom key from gravity. i can finally hide my annoying bluetooth icon, apps, and clock "am/pm" too.
one funny thing to note. the default launcher allows double-tap on homescreen to sleep the device but it doesnt work on the lockscreen. gravity box has the option to allow doubletap on lockscreen to sleep. but since i switched to GNL it seems double tap to sleep on homescreen doesnt work no more.

Thanks for the reply. I use an app called Hangar that puts the 7 most "popular" icons you use at the bottom of the notification list or you can optionally pin a specific icon....so I have pinned the rebootmanager icon there...I also considered using an xposed module to define holding down power button to call rebootmanager directly but don't think it's a good idea to override a main button like that...anyway Hangar counts the time you spend in each app to determine which icons to show..has ended up working quite well. Hangar has an xda thread in android apps & games and you can add a 2nd row of icons should you wish to.

Install an app called "screen off" and then assign that app to be called for a double tap in your launcher (or at least that's what I did in nova launcher) and it works fine....still more accurate then the double tap to wake.
@thatguy52 you have xposed gel settings working? I try it, but nothing work for me, have a message that gel launcher not installed

And all settings work with the Alcatel launcher? That is good news, thanks bro
Edit : just tried like you said, installed gel launcher, but still don't work. Thank you anyway

I've received my Idol 3 today.
I booted to twrp (without installing it) and could root it and install xposed.
GravityBox works fine as weel as Network Speed Indicator.

If you are going to root why not go ahead and flash TWRP so you can enjoy all of it's benefits? Root access with filemanager, adb access etc?
The default recovery does not have reboot to bootloader for 2 models of the 6045.

I have a 6045Y bought in France. Don't know about the reboot to booloader from recovery.
I only needed root for xposed, link2sd, root explorer and titanium backup.
Didn't really need to have TWRP flashed.
I had in mind, that could be easier to unroot and get OTA update if i don't flash TWRP. That's maybe wrong thought.. (?).
I want to disable the clock on the status bar,
I'm on stock 5.1 , rooted.
I don't want to flash a rom just so that I can disable it, is there any other way.
nova launcher does it, but it's just in the launcher, not system wide.

Install xposed, after that download the module gravitybox and within this app there is a option to disable the clock system wide.

Has anyone found a way to fully customise which icons appear and don't appear on the status bar? I gave system UI tuner a go but that didn't work.
I gave it admin rights through adb (there are instructions in the app) and it works.
