[Q] Xposed on 3.1.1 - Shield Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

has anyone successfully installed xposed framework on OTA 3.1.1?
I've have no luck in installing as xposed-arm zip through TWRP and CWM recoveries.
getting an error that there is not enough space available. I'm assuming this is because the system partition is not mounting and or there is no write permissions.

tried to use FolderMount, and changing R/W permission on system partition but still no luck.
permissions change but it does not update/apply.
any other ideas?

[Q] Trouble mounting system as r/w with Root Explorer

I am having trouble mounting system r/w with Root Explorer. It has SuperUser permission granted, and actually says it is r/w when I select that button, however, whenever I try to rename or paste something in the /system folder, I get a toast message saying the system is not mounted r/w.
Has anyone had this problem?
I am rooted, running Jelly Beans (TW based) build 8 ROM and LeanKernel 1.7.
I wiped data and cache before installing the ROM. Restored user apps and data using TiBu.

[Resolved] [Q] Xposed Framework, another Soft-Brick

SOLVED
EDIT: Yup, I just reflashed AOKP, then restored /Data, /Cache, /ExtSD, while keeping /System.
Got it booting properly. Except Link2SD mount script (Which I recreated) and the logcat boot animation (Reinstalled), I did not found any other problem (Yet?).
************************************************************
Hi,
I've tried to install Xposed Framework on my LG P500 (ROM being AOKP); I knew at first that the /System partition had not enough space for installation, so I proceeded anyway, to see the message "Insufficient storage", I wanted to know how much space was required for the installation.
But well, seems there was at that point enough space on /System, and Xposed installed anyways. I preferred to uninstall it right away before rebooting to avoid problem. I suspect the uninstallation wiped the /system/bin/app_process backup.
I then booted in TWRP Recovery and took a full Nandroid backup.
But when I rebooted, heh, it freeze at the boot animation (I have a logcat. I can tell where the Logcat freeze, actually, instantly, just after LG logo).
I tried to flash Xposed Disabler, but it says "No backup found for app_process, nothing to be performed!". I suspect my backup was wiped after I uninstalled Xposed (But why do I still have a boot-loop?).
Could I just reflash AOKP, grab the file app_process and save it, restore the faulty Nandroid Backup, copy the file back, and voila?
Or interestingly, the Nandroid backup was a full one, so /Data, /Cache, /Ext-SD were saved. So if the /System partition only was damaged, could I just restore the /Data and /Ext-SD partition? I get I will have to recreate Link2SD mount script, but not much.
Do I need to reinstall everything?
Thanks for the help ?

[Q] E: Unable to mount /system

Hi. I renamed a folder and the apk file inside it in system/app.
now my phone is not booting (goes to android is upgrading... then restarts). I tried to delete that apk from recovery, but both recoveries(I have CWM+Philztouch and Teamwin) say E:unable to mount /system when I try to mount system. So I can do nothing to access /system.
I need to either access /system without recoveries(maybe in fastboot) or fix the /system mount problem in recoveries.
any idea is very helping.
I have Xperia Z Lte with android 5.0.2
Thanks for reading question.

Have you tried a factory reset from recovery? That may clear the app data and allow you to boot.

Any type of reset will surely fix it. because the change in the name of app will be reverted to original rom's app name.
But renaming or deleting a file in system shouldn't need factory reset. there's surely a better way.
and main question is why /system not mounts?!
For anyone having this problem, I solved it.
The solution was the version of dual recovery I was using was for locked bootloaders. so I flashed the UB version and the /system now mounts fine.

[Q] Partition corruption. Single folder cant be deleted.

Hi all. I hope this is the right place to ask General android related questions.
I recently unlocked the boot loader and rooted my huawei p9 and installed twrp.
Once that was done. I went ahead and restored apps and data via the huawei Windows app.
However...
It seems like one of the folders in my data/data folder is corrupt.
I have tried deleting it with es root explorer. Root file manager to no avail. I am able to rename the folder and permissions.
The error I see in twrp is:
Updating partition details...
Error opening: '/data/data/renamedeleteapp/app_xwalkcore/Default/Cache/5de9a45e57c756c2_0' (No such file or directory)
...done
So I presume it's a partition issue.
I haven't been able to find any guides for similar. A full format Or wipe doesn't work either.
Of anyone can shed some light that would be great.
Thanks
I have seen some guides for Samsung phones using Odin to wipe partitions but I haven't seen a similar app for huawei phones
there's a problem with the "/data/data/renamedeleteapp/app_xwalkcore/Default/Cache/5de9a45e57c756c2_0" cause it doesnt exist. a simple reboot will do the work, and if it doesn't then reset factory settings from recovery will fix it

Can't flash anything through recovery. (failed to mount "/cpefs" (Invalid Response)

Can't flash anything through recovery. (failed to mount "/cpefs" (Invalid Response)
I recently got this phone and I've been trying to install a custom rom, however, I can't seem to do anything while using TWRP. For some reason the file explorer shows no files and no /storage folder. It also says that the /system partition weights 0MB. I've already tried formatting the /data partition from EXT4 to extFAT, but it won't let me because it cannot mount the "/cpefs" partition, which I've been unable to find any information about.
I can flash the stock firmware trough ODIN, and I can flash the recovery. The internal storage works fine, but nothing shows up when I open TWRP.
I've tried formatting the data partition, repairing it, changing the partition format, wiping, installing a custom rom, installing superSU. But it won't allow me to do any of those things. Either "/data" can't be mounted, or "/cpefs" can't be mounted while formatting /data.

Which phone you're using?
J7 Pro?
Secondly make sure to enable OEM unlock options from the stock ROM's Developer option!
Thirdly check the recovery patches etc of the desired recovery's webiste (you're using) and flash it through the recovery if you're facing the problem!
It'll work, mostly some users said they fixed this by the above mentioned step!
If no luck, maybe someone will sort it out for ya, soon! :laugh:
Good Luck! :good:

Thanks for your reply. The model of the phone is SM-J710MN. The OEM unlock option is enabled, otherwise I wouldn't be able to flash the recovery. I am trying to use TWRP. Where would I find a recovery patch for this model?. Everything works fine in the recovery, but it won't let me wipe/format/repair or change ANY partition. It can't mount anything, and the error that I see the most often is that it cannot mount the /cpefs partition.

try flashing a lower version of the same frimware you've already installed e.g if the latest is nougat 7.1.1 with the recent security update, try flashing with another nougat version that is lower to the recent one's security patch #
