It seems like Xposed for Lollipop will not be released any time soon, so I'd like to request some mod to customize quick settings, clock position, battery icon/text, ...
Thank you for reading.
I'm considering going back to KitKat for Xposed. Not sure if fancy animations are worth the greatness of Gravitybox.
i didn't realise how dependent i became on Xposed and Gravity Box...is there an advanced power menu mod or app, at least?
Stock aosp.. Is just very.. Stock.. My craving for xposed on L is huge
I gone back to Paranoid with Art. I just cant stay without otg for pen drive, notification led settings, active display, changing stock launcher, etc...

After two days of most of the root apps and customizations I've gotten used to either being not available or broken... nandroid restored.

Hey guys, this is my first post ever here. I have a couple of issues with my nexus 5.
First of all, I have the 32gb, rooted nexus 5, and I am running ElementalX kernel and TWRP on it.
I observed that I cannot switch to ART for some reason. When I choose to do so, the phone just reboots and still runs Dalvik. Does this happen to someone else too?
Secondly, the music player widget on the lock screen doesn't show up most of the time when I'm using my earphones. Any fix for that?
Lastly, the icons in my app drawer automatically get arranged in a 5x6 grid, making them smaller. I don''t know why it's doing that.
I am also running Xposed module with GravityBox, LMT launcher, and a couple of ad blockers.
Please help!
Xposed framework does not support ART...
Don't know about the other stuff.

I see. Thanks.
My old Nexus 4 and current Nexus 7 have had a number roms flashed to them, but I've remained stock on my Nexus 5 because Xposed Frameworks has come a long way.
I haven't felt the need to flash a rom other than habit so I've stayed stock (except for trying out PA for about a day). Is Xposed missing something that can only be found on a rom or is there really just isn't much of a need to flash custom roms anymore?

There certainly isn't much need anymore. Its all personal taste.

I'm not sure that everything is available with Xposed modules.
For instance: blur lockscreen, toggles modifications (swipe to switch, screenshot delay, toggle style, toggles per row, text color...), Enable persistence, ribbons, tons of animations, Active & lockscreen notifications, Halo, the great Theme Provider...
But a xposed module can do something that a custom rom can't so I use both.
BTW I'm fond of themes so custom roms are mandatory.

Ribbons, active disply and lockscreen notifications are features that can be installed from the play store

No need to install additional 3rd party apps is an asset for custom roms and the modules for themes don't work as well as Theme Provider afaik...

I know xtheme doesn't work good, but hkTheme manager has-been updated to v6 and is working great for me, no lag at all,but i guess you are right that's why I'm still using custom roms

Toggle style is unique to roms. XuiMod for Xposed handles animations. Halo has a mod that works well with the app Flotifications. I think the theme chooser, then, is the only thing truly unique, though with Xblast you can theme your phone a bit and Unicon has icons taken care of.

That's kind of the point of Xposed, though. It's adding just what you want so, while we may have to install this or that from the Play Store or through a mod, it means we can also leave out a lot of things we don't use or need.

I wonder if Xposed will be around much longer. Google is moving from DEV to ART and xposed runs only on DEV. From the posts it sounds like a total rebuild which they didn't sound like was going to happen. Xposed is cool and I would like to find an alternative that runs on ART. If Xposed support ART I would be even happier.

Rovo89 has promised to make xposed compatible with ART but he's gonna wait till ART beta phase is over, he even said that he has created a version that works on ART

Morning all
I want to enable gesture control on my Z1C (running stock 757 Sony KK, rooted) so I can launch a couple of apps with a gesture rather than an icon. I've tried Xposed Framework and GEL settings but doesn't seem to work from me for some reason.
So I thought I might play around with different launchers. So...
which ones are you using and liking? I've used Apex most in the past. Are there any that work well with KK?
And...
How can I backup my settings on my current launcher (don't even know if it is a Sony or Google launcher tbh!) so I can revert back as required?
Thanks.
Hi,
try nova launcher or solo launcher. Nova comes with either free or pro versions(pro gives you few more customization options), solo is a free launcher with 90% of nova pro's options. If you decide to go with nova, be careful I couldn't activate my 'pro' key for over 2 months (bought via paypal). Both are good choice. In my opinion, if you did't buy nova pro yet, go for solo launcher. Bare in mind some of sony's widgets (weather, walkan) won't work.
As for the settings, they won't go missing. Default sony launcher will save them.

So Bro many thanks i´m root now!!
Not getting my S6 until Monday, but two of the first things I plan on doing are installing the Google Now Launcher, and the Google Keyboard. As a long time Nexus user, hopefully this will get me as close to that vanilla android feel as possible.
So my question is...has anyone installed those apps? How is it running? Anything else you can do to make it as vanilla feeling as possible?
the problem with the google launcher is the samsung icons stay, you have to wait for a lollipop theme to be available on the gs6 theme store
I use nova launcher and a LP icon pack. i also set the animations in nova to be LP and the google now search as LP style

That was my other thought. Haven't used Nova Launcher in a while...but might be using now just for the lollipop icons. Looks like lollipop icons comes baked into nova launcher now, awesome.
How about Google Now? Would be awesome to get it via swipe to the left in nova...but doesn't look like that's possible. Any suggestions for that?

I actually use the stock LP icons in nova. Looks fine for me. I dont use google now because the lack of customization, the icons/drawer are too big.
Heres my homepage

Looks good. Any good ways to mess with the pulldown and quick settings? Seems like the notification shade and settings pages are the only thing that will be "touchwiz" at that point.

No way to mess with the look of them, thatd be related to rooting/roms/mods
I did remove any quick setting toggles so there would only be 5 that i use regularly

I can live with that. Does the built in themes affect the look though? Can set a different theme to mess with the shade, and then use Nova.

I'm waiting for other themes so i can find one I like. But I would imagine the system themes from samsung would affect the look of everything else, and then the launcher would be overtop and be the "visual" styling for stock android
One thing I'm missing is the priority setting for notifications. Stock android you could set volume profile to priority and get only calls/texts from starred/priority contacts. Then could also set an auto time interval

Hopefully the built-in themer will get a lot of support so we have a lot of choices.
Samsung has some built in do not disturb stuff though right? On my nexus 5 I use "Nights keeper" at night so I get phone calls, but everything else is silent. Can set whitelists and everything.
The google keyboard is a touch laggy at times on the GS6 for me, specifically when swipe/slide typing. So are third party launchers. It's very small though. Some won't notice it I bet

The themes do change the shade, and practically every other aspect of the look, except the icons as mentioned, if you're using other than stock launcher.
I am using the latest nova launcher.

I feel pretty confident that this will take off and be Hugh...Plus for the themers it probably will make their work easier since it will probably come with some sort of themer package. This is one of the best parts of the phone is the ability to make it look different!

Hello, so I flashed Xposed Framework on my Honor 8, its working fine, few modules I tested out work flawlessly, but I'm curious if you guys know some good and useful modules that work.
So far I've tried:
- Amplify
- Greenify
- Flat Style Bar Indicators (even though it has some problems)
- Disable Full Screen Keyboard
- YT AdAway
- YT Background Playback
- Gravitybox (I only tested a few functions and they seem to work)
Thanks in advance! :fingers-crossed:
Almost all of them lol. Modules released for nougat have been out for quite a bit already.

Oh, that is nice to hear. Actually I'm looking for something to stockify EMUI, gravitybox says that it could cause bootloops on heavily skinned androids like touchwiz, miui etc., so I'm a bit scared of testing it out, so if you know a module which could change the qs menu for example, I'm well aware of the Material Notification Shade app, but it doesn't support fingerprint gestures which I use a lot, and it's a bummer, so if you know anything that could help, I'd appreciate it a lot

Gravitybox works from what I remember. I didn't have too many things enabled but I never experienced a bootloop the entire time I used it. What exactly are you looking to do to the was menu?

I want to make it as stock as possible, I don't hate emui's way, but I prefer the whole stock pulldown menu, idk if you can even do that with gravitybox, but I'm looking for something that can, if there is no such stuff, it's fine, I can live without it.
