Good day dear XDA members. Since updating my Galaxy Note 4 N910C to lollipop I was unable to install xposed framework and frankly didn't want to mess with so many technical adjustments. The reality is that I only use xposed framework to accomplish one task or I should say to install one module "App Settings" so I can enlarge the font in facebook and Google+ (just too small for my eyes). I googled for apps that would work on rooted devices but without xposed and I couldn't find, and I am kindly asking you if you have come across an application that will accomplish this task and does not need to work from within xposed framework. Many many thanks.

Hello all,
What module do you use to customize - gravitybox or xblast tools? It seems that gravitybox is more popular but I haven't tried it yet. Xblast tools seems to have a lot of options from what I've seen. Just curious as to what everyone else's preference is
Xblast is awesome. However, in my experience, many of their mods are not yet compatible with KitKat. For that reason alone I believe Gravity Box is the better option for customizing/themeing. Gravity Box has its own KitKat module, specifically for KK Roms. I use GB (KK) and XGELS to do most of my framework/system themeing. XGELS is a really cool Xposed module that lets you customize the stock GEL launcher. It has many options such as resizing icons/text, changing the color of the icon text, removing the text and removing the oh so annoying google search bar! Plus many more features. Anything beyond that I use/build Zip Themer mods. Zip Themer is one badass application that builds flashable zips that help making the modification and themeing process a lot more user friendly. If you wanna check out how affective zip themer can be, go ahead and check out the candy shop mod thread in the Nexus 5 Themes and Apps forum. It's quite possibly my favorite and most used method of themeing my phone!

Note : there are some more xposed modules I have installed but are disable because they are giving me random FC's on certain apps.
several of these apps dont work or are not needed with cm.
I use Greenify and Crappalinks.
Sent via Bacon
Says who? I'm not even running the stock cm11s. I find every single xposed mod installed useful.
I actually use greenify, whatsapp mods (to remove the stupid button to take photos in the whatsapp text bar). Going to install crappalinks, didn't know about it, i've just searched for infos on google after seeing it on the previous post
I use these
None, using ART since I can't stand any lag while opening apps with dalvik
Where did you get the greenify module from?
Greenify is an app on the Play Store.
Transmitted via Bacon
Can anybody confirm that xhalo floating window is working on lollipop. I'm currently on CM12s and just have amplify and greenify.
Hello!
Sorry if I'm in the wrong place, if so please redirect me. I'm wondering if there are any xposed modules specific to samsung tablets? I already have xuimod (basically just for animations) and wanam. I know about gravity box obviously too but wondering if there's anything else that could benefit my experience with this tab?
Also as a side note , is there a way to change settings to list view? The way they have these tabs set up drives me nuts! I'd like to keep stock from but if I can't change this through xposed than just might have to flash..
Thanks

I will try to see if I can do what you are asking.

there are many modules related to Samsung
just install the closed module installer
and see download section
you will find a lot of Samsung specific modules
Modules don't have to be specific to these devices to work. Key to installing is to read through the support threads of the module to see if any touchwiz based devices have issues. If a slew of them do its a safe bet that the module isn't compatible with the Note pro. If other note tablets are confirmed to work then it's likely but not guaranteed to work. As always, keep a backup just in case you have to wipe and restore.
Here is a list of what I'm running currently:
ActivityForceNewtask
App Settings
Boot Manager
Chrome New Tab
Complete Action Plus
CrappaLinks
Custom Share
Disable Clear Defaults Dialog
Disable Location Consent
Enable Battery Stats Peemission
Gravitybox
Greenify
Heads Up Notifications

Nlp Unbounce
Ok Google for 3rd party activities

Wanam

LoL! I'm running almost the exact same as on this list. ?
Developers don't need no stinkin' signature!

Hello, i have many Problems with my new Mate 7.
1. I use Nova Launcher and Apex but Launchers will kill many times per day from System and set it to system launcher
2. i dont can find a App menu button on my Phone
3. whats wrong with back2kill !?
All Apps who i have use before with xposed dont work with this Phone (Bluered , wanam xposed and all the other)
I am realy ready to send the phone back to :S
Is it possible that it give not custom Roms for that Phone ?! The Bootloader is open to download open source, why i cant find Roms from this Phone !? Thanks for Help

Regarding your preferred launchers first off you will need to select them as default launcher apps by going to Settings>Manage Apps>Default App Settings (at the bottom). Emui's phone manager also implements settings which could filter apps allowed to run after screen is off. To ensure that both launchers (as well as other apps you wish to continue running) don't get killed when the phone sleeps, go to Settings>Protected Apps>Turn on the apps you wish to protect.
As for Back2Kill, I'm not familiar with the app but maybe doing the same steps highlighted above will help resolve it. As for Xposed, the phone is currently not compatible with the most current version (2.7.1 experimental). Version 2.4.1 will work for some but not all of the modules. Also if you use stock themes with this version activated you'll likely see the icons do not change to the desired theme. Version 2.6.1 works and has the "disable resource hook" option fully working so it won't conflict with themeing apps. it works for greenify and amplify though not all modules work (haven't test the others). Hopefully our device gets fully supported with Xposed in the future.
As for custom roms not much has been posted here on XDA but you may check out Kang VIP rom by Foox1 on the threads. There are abundance of mate 7 roms on Chinese and other Asian forums, so you may want to check them out.
I really hope as too that we get to have custom roms and kernels in the future. Custom kernels would be great since stock ones have limited governor kernel tweaking options with apps such as Trickster, Faux, etc.
The subject may have seemed weird, but I've been really pondering this. When I had my S5 I rooted it, installed Xposed, and there was all kinds of cool tweaks I could do to fix all the flaws of the S5.
I rooted the S6 edge when I got it, and found out that Xposed is not compatible (32 bit only?) and there's no telling when the dev will actually care to make it work. So I have a rooted S6 Edge, and couldn't figure out a reason why. The S6 Edge actually doesn't have a lot of the flaws that I needed to fix on the S5, so I'm at a loss.
So please tell me, what do I do with a rooted S6 Edge that makes it better than stock? Is there something like Xposed that I don't know about that actually makes it useful for the average power user?
TIA
Installing Custom Roms.
Currently for the S6 you have the option of installing a Deodex or Odex version of a Rom. XtreSto Lite gives you the choice in how you want your phone to run. Also the ability to have a custom recovery like TWRP. You can literally take an entire backup of your entire phone, apps, data and keep it for when your phone starts to slow down, play up or derps itself from an install.
Tweaks
Installing things like 3Minit Framework or Alliance Framework which is out allows you to add more features. Longpress Volume keys, Extended Power Menus, Custom Lockscreen Carrier stuff, different statusbar icons to name a few. While Xposed provides you with runtime modifications, these frameworks are the only real mods which we can use until Xposed is eventually supported for S6 variants.
Some apps need root access too. BetterBatterStats, ES File explorer has a root mode. Depends on what apps you use.
Overall "just rooting" provides your average power user with more options than stock. You can also have newer firmwares sooner so you can try out features that have been hyped quicker. (and then roll back easy with the custom recovery if you dont like).
I came from an S3 with Xposed to an S6 without and its been difficult. You might consider to drop a donation to arter97, who plans to extend support for his Xposed workaround to arm64 devices, namely S6 and beyond.

Hope this helps.
Edit: If you havent had the opportunity to use Xposed it provides the abilitiy to really easily modify to your phone. Youtube adAway, SnapPrefs (for snapchat) are just some modules that you download and install from the Xposed repository, instead of having to wait for features to be implemented, you can apply them yourself, really really easily.

I found out about Xposed and it was the whole reason I rooted my S5. Loved it, and used the modules that would disable the 'volume warning' and 'usb cover warning'. When I rooted my S6, I tried to install Xposed only to find out it was useless, and thus the reason for the thread.
The fact that you said this...

... at least lets me know that you're sharing my frustration. I'll look into 3Minit and Alliance, thanks. I didn't know about these other frameworks.
If you are running a S6 Edge try look at edgarf's XtraStoLite Roms. Its got Alliance included as an optional addon. (Alliance has been around for a few months and 3Minit currently looks like its just starting up).
My main reasons always: File managers with advanced permissions, titanium backup, processor throttlers. I'm not into custom ROMs, unless they provide some truly unique functions.
