Hello guys,
I find a lot of info in the forum talking about the question in the title of this post.
To be more clear I´m a bit confussed about what to do, I come from a hard brick few days ago and I don´t want to mess up with my 1+1.
I find 2 post http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/discussion-xposed-modules-5-1-lolipop-t3075257 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811 I think that I can use without problems Xposed + Greenify module on my 1+1 with 5.1. I´m right? If not please correct me, I don´t want more bricks!!!
Thanks in advance.

Hello again,
I forget to mention if I must install ONLY the apk provided in the main post of xPosed or I should install the apk and flash through recovery the zip file named xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip.
I´m a bit confussed, in my last phone I only install the APK and install the modules that I want.
Thanks in advance.

For lollipop you must follow these instructions on 5.1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979
So yes, you have to install also the framework from recovery (zip) and then the app.

Hello davebugyi,
Ok, first flash the zip through recovery and then reboot and install the app. Anyway I´m reading the instruction thread that you post in your previous post before do something.
Thanks again for all your help.
Hello guys,
When I try to flash xposed zip I get the next error "E: Error executing updater binary in zip NAME OF THE ZIP"
What can I do?
Thanks in advance.
Possibly a bad download.
Download it again and see if it works then.

Hello and thanks again for your time, I download again the zip fily and flash it through TWRP 2.8.6.0. I get the exact same error, I don´t know how to proceed or even how to get a more detailed log from TWRP. What do you suggest?
Okay so exactly which ROM are you running?
Which Kernel?
Make sure you are on the latest TWRP recovery found here: https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/
In terms of the Xposed framework, be sure you download the zip file from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/super-alpha-posted-permission-xposed-t3072979
And then the APK from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
let me know how that goes down.

Hello mate!!
I totally forget to tell what ROM and Kernel I use I´m running BlissPop build 20150515-1013 with Metallized Kernel.
Also I´m running TWRP 2.8.6.0 so I´m updting it and download the Xposed zip and APK from your post. If I understand it properly I must download and flash the ARM version of Xposed right?
I'm running the newest release of Blisspop (26052014) update to that too.
Yes the ARM, but not the 64bit version, the top file listed under the main post.
I can confirm Xposed works blissfully too, I use amplify and Greenify too.

I follow all your steps and use your links and update to latest Bliss Rom and now I can flash the zip and install the APK of Xposed and Greenify + Greenify donation. All seems to be ok, but I´m having extrange wifi problems due to latest version of the ROM, do you think that this can be caused for all this process?
Also do you recommend to buy Amplify, it´s worth the investment?
Thanks again for all your help!!
EDIT: I forget to reboot, Boost mode ON!!!
Great stuff, glad to be of service.
In terms of amplify yes it is worth every penny, but takes some getting used to in to how it works. But when used in conjunction with greenify the results are awesome. Bear in mind you have to spend a few days monitoring battery drain using better battery stats or gsam to gain an understanding of what is going on.
Any problems, send me a PM.

Hi mate!!,
I think that I´m going to buy it and pm you. Now I only need fix the wifi problems of the latest version of Bliss ROM.
Really thanks for all your help.
I did have WiFi issues, but the new updates seems to of fixed them for me anyway, just be sure to wipe dalvik, along with the normal cache after flashing for good measure.
Go for it, you won't look back man!

It is cooked from the Google stock image for tilpia and is NOT deodexed
This is the first time i am posting a ROM on XDA.
Been cooking ROM's for a while for my old Samsung devices.
The whole reason for this thread is to have a flashable zip for any Nexus 7(2012) 3g user who wishes to stay stock.
I have tested it on my Nexus 7, if anyone has any issues do let me and please bear with me as im not a developer and just sharing what i personally use.
Will try and help with what ever i can.
************** For some Reason the boot logo does not show up, dont worry, wait for sometime, the ROM will boot up***********
Note:
1. Works with multirom.
2. Odexed for my personal use, if anyone wishes to de-odex it, do let me know.
3. This includes the stock kernel. I also tested the latest stable mkernel which is for 4.4.2 and works fine.(works with the new kitkat 4.4.4 too)
Screenshot attached
Downloads:
4.4.4:
tilapia.v2
Mirror
Radio for 4.4.4
md5 for Radio: 64920d406852d92b478c3ab17383ecce
4.4.3:
tilapia.v1
md5 : 5c4d3b47274000cf6d5326d14ab7cc81
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Installation:
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Do a factory reset.
3. Go to advanced wipe settings and select system, dalvik and cache and format them.
4. Flash Rom
First boot takes time, wait patiently. There wont be any boot animation, so wait on that black screen for sometime
Profit :good:

Update your bootloader and radio first. And clean flash is recommended though there are not much of changes from 4.4.2 but as you mentioned you are using 4.4 clean wipe and installing is preferred.
thank you very much! stock rocks! :good::good:
PS: root & bbox?
Thanks alot
Hi!
First of all - thanks for your clean/xposed ROM.
I only have one question. Would it still be possible to send SMS from my Tilapia-tablet (Nexus 7-2012/3G) after flashing your ROM?
BTW : @RomerGG - The threads' header should already have answered your question...

Haven't tried that. Unfortunately i have a pure data plan, so my provider restricts sms by default. And i cant take out the sim and replace as i was once trying to break open my sim slot and take out the sim, during that crazy struggle i guess i broke that sim holder. so once the sim comes out, i have to struggle a lot to get the network back on by replacing it
Edit: dont think hangouts will give the sms sending option by any chance. So try with a third party app and let us know
Thanks for the stock rooted rom. FYI, I had flashed CF SuperSU v1.99r4 and also MKernel a67, looks okay so far. I'm updating the Google apps from Play store now. Once done, I'll be installing TB to restore my apps.
One word of caution to those flashing this rom. Note that there seems to be no bootanimation, so don't be mistaken that the rom is not working. Give it time to boot up. :good:
Edit:
One thing I noticed strange is in TB, System ROM is showing 670MB (8.45 MB free). Before this, I was on 4.4.2 stock rooted, before I manually flashed boot.img and system.img. It was showing same results, but 9.XX MB free. Is this correct? I vaguely remembered that it should be almost 900 plus MB. Can anyone confirm?

Sorry for this stupid question. How can I updated these .img files ?
Thank you for this work!! I had the slimkat, I did a wipe recovery and then I installed. Where is the menu button?
Art is not activated?

To flash them you need to enable USB debugging and then reboot to bootloader. Here use the following fastboot commands.
For Updating bootloader:
fastboot flash bootloader name_of_the_bootloader_file.img
For radio:
fastboot flash radio name_of_the_radio_file.img
If you want a detailed instruction, go here and follow Method 2.

It is the same file as the one google pushes for Nexus 7 device. So what ever is present in the original stock image, will be there.
Menu button is only active in apps that give it by default, there is an xposed module which can activate menu button in every app.
For ART, not sure why google misses the option to switch to ART every time on Nexus 7 devices. Will check and see how to add that option.

It is dalvik. Google does not seem to want including ART for the nexus 7. Read somewhere on google forums that it might be a hardware issue cos of which they are not including it.
flashing aborted
Version tilapia2 flashing aborted, version tilapia 1 ok. Do you know where is the problem? Using the latest version of the recovery v6.0.4.3.
Good work! I maintain BSZKitKat for grouper (ODEX and DEODEX). Awesome job getting right in front of the 4.4.4 update!

Correct - we lack sufficient space on the /system partition for the binaries required for switching to ART
Cant' flash this rom, i get an error and the message FAILED.

It is much easier to deal with!

I read that Exposed Installer has been updated. Does anyone know if it would work with the 5.1.1 Update that Tmo and Metro Stylo got?
Only way to find out is to try. I'll be backing up and trying in a bit.
well it said it installed in twrp, but when i rebooted, it stayed on the lg screen for longer than usual...then it finally went to the metro screen but it just stayed there for a long time so i panicked and pulled the battery.
i was able to restore my backup and i thought i read somewhere that i may need busybox installed...even though i thought busybox got installed when i did the one click root, i went ahead and installed it from the playstore to try again.
again it said it installed in twrp, this time i let it stay on the metro screen even longer but it seemed like it was stuck so i restored a backup...do you think i just need to wait longer? also do i really need busybox installed?
im tempted to restore my 5.02 backup and see what happens if i try to install the 5.0 version...

BusyBox is needed so that some things that require root work correctly like Viper4Android, but it's not needed for everything
I had the same problem with it staying on the carrier screen for 30 minutes before I gave up. Seems it just won't work as it currently stands.

found these instructions in Italian on how to install without recovery pasting them in English (rough google translation):
ith this tutorial we see how to install Xposed Framework on a phone with Android
Lollipop without recovery!
Cost:
Root
Busybox installed on the device (and also installed files busybox, just open the app)
Terminal Emulator installed on the device
Package XposedLollipop taken from this video.
1- Download the package by pressing the link
2- Unzip
3- Put the contents of the root (in the main memory of the phone,
no subfolders) of the device.
4- Install Xposed (the apk is among the file you just put into the device) BUT do not open it
5- Open the terminal emulator and type "su" after which you type: sh / sdcard / installer
and press enter.
6- 1 and press enter.
7- Wait for the procedure, after restart and you Xposed properly installed
PS: procedure performed perfectly on MEIZU MX4 which as you know does not have recovery mod, works on all phones MA may be different from the path where installed so placed in the root of the file and make sure that it's called "sdcard", should have a other name you have to use that! eg sh / card / installer
link to the video with his links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tDInZYNrEr8 if this does work then us Boost User's can enjoy it too , but i have no idea if it does work
and if it doesnt work? i wouldnt try anything fancy without having twrp to restore a backup (or at least a kdz)...are you gonna try that method?

Hey guys,
I need a bit of help here.
For some strange reason I'm unable to install various apps from the play store like Antutu benchmar, AcDisplay or even unable to update The Google app!
I've cleared the cache of the play store and have rebooted the phone but still the same ! What else could I do?
Edit: after another reboot the system optimised itself and the problem is gone! Weird! Anyway is good now, even the screen turns itself off whereas before it wasn't doing it!

The same thing happened just now. I couldn't install an app from the play store. Had to clear data and reboot. It's OK now.
I also find that the battery drains fast. I started the day with 100% and is not even 4pm and it's down to 39%! Nothing like the reviews I've seen saying that the battery should last 2 days!
No doubt that the OS has quite a few bugs.
I'm starting to miss my old Nexus 5 ?

How did you get twrp? When I was looking to flash it, the only info I could find said that you'd need to build it for this phone yourself
A new OTA Update has been released by Ulefone (20160505), it seems to fix all instabilities but i'm not sure. I'll confirm it after some days of testing.
In the meanwhile i recommend you to update your device in order to get as much as possible feedbacks about it.

Do you know if OTA is the only way to get the update?

If they do not release the 20160505 Full ROM then yes, you need to wait an OTA update.

OK, thanks for your help and thank you for this thread and all the support. It's really appreciated! :good:
I wonder if anyone else has received the update?
I'm having lots of problems with this phone and I don't know who to contact to report them so I'm going to list them here in case some of you are suffering the same problems:
* I don't get a 4G signal despite this phone being compatible with band 800Mhz and that's the band my telephone supplier uses.
* The finger print scanner doesn't always work.
* I have to reboot the phone often because I get an error when trying to install apps.
* The battery life is very poor considering its size. I'm unable to get a full day's use with one full charge and I don't play games!
* The screen comes on while the phone is my pocket.
* The phone overheats often for no apparent reason.
* I get a network error when I try to send a feedback using the OTA feedback form.
* Maybe others that I can't remember now.
In summary, I'm a little disappointed and frustrated. . I hope that the update comes quickly and is able to fix some of these problems!
That gives me hopes! Thanks!

In order to download the ROM you have to log in but it doesn't give you an option to sign up either (at least I don't see it)
Would you be kind enough to share the download link please?
Hey guys, so I just found out about this site and am a super noob but managed to Root my ATT S7 last night. I have been trying to install the Xposed framework but it looks like I cant get a custom recovery program onto my S7. Does anyone know how to get TWRP or CWM or any custom recovery onto the 930A? Or for that matter, Xposed install without a custom recovery?

Actually I found out how to do everything and make it pretty smooth. Rooted, with Xposed and a bunch of fixes to make it almost as smooth as stock. Let me know if you are still looking.

Sure, I'll start from the beginning in case any other new people are wondering.
Basically, back up your files and restore your phone to factory so the root goes smoother.
Then proceed to this thread for the root. Oh yeah, install adb if you don't have it. They dont mention it and assume you know what it is, which noobs like me don't.
After a clean root, install Flashfire (you may need to disable samsung updates and reset the phones clock back to 2012 or something if Flashfire doesn't want to start). I used 0.31, maybe the newest will work? Easy to find in google.
On page 8 of the Root thread, there is a dropbox link to the Xposed apk and zip (Here). Move them to your phone and install the apk, then use Flashfire to boot the zip.
I think that's pretty much it, Xposed should be running after the Flashfire reboot (which can take a long time as it will Optimize apps).
psouza4 has an awesome thread on what to do after Root and Xposed to make the phone run smoother.
If you do something wrong and absolutely can't fix it, see here for re-flashing back to stock.
Hope this helps someone, took me about 2 days to search all of this out. The AT&T S7 is such a pain in the ass with it's locked bootloader, but this place is > AT&T!

Flash the Xposed uninstaller from recovery or factory reset, or flash a stock ROM over the top

I'm on a galaxy s7 snapdragon (ATT) and I use flash fire to flash the uninstaller. Which uninstaller should I use? The default one, one for samsung devices, or one for galaxy s7

The one for the version of Xposed you flashed I would think, I haven't flashed it on my S7, best to ask in the Xposed main thread
Just seen that xposed has been released officially for nougat but it won't install. Has anyone got the official zip to flash?

Yes, I had the same issue with TWRP with Pixel XL.
I ended up using Flashfire to flash the Xposed installer zip.
Just make sure to select 'Auto-mount' after you've selected the file.
All seems OK, although I haven't tried any modules yet. Most are in need of a compatible update for Nougat anyway.
Hope this helps.

I have the Pixel and I used Flashfire as you suggested. Xposed does not appear in my app drawer, tho. The file I used was xposed-v88-sdk25-arm64.zip. Was I supposed to use a different one? Attached a screenshot of my About phone.
**EDIT
Whoops I just realized I needed to also install the apk. It worked!

Great, my apologies I failed to mention that the app needed to be installed.
Is the xposed installer zip the xposed-v88-sdk25-arm64? I am on stock 7.1.2.

Thank you. Installed perfectly.. just tried YouTube AdAway, and it works perfect.
Used flashfire and all it does is sit at a black screen, waited over 15mins. End up having to use the power button to restart the phone. I also tried to use TWRP, keep getting a error about failed to mount system/vendor. Not sure what the issue is here.

Someone on a Pixel XL thread has successfully installed Xposed just by pressing the install button on the App homescreen.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/help/xposed-nougat-official-pixel-xl-t3685830
Certainly an easier solution!, and has made me feel a little stupid!
I'm not used to simple processes on the Pixel!

Well I am stuck now having to reinstall my rom, got a Google boot screen boot loop
Anyone updated to 88.1? Can I FlashFire this update over already installed 88?
EDIT: The Xposed Installer app showed me that the update was available and I just tried that and it updated itself perfectly.
