1. How did you root? Magisk? Then it should survive a system update. That's essentially the point of Magisk.
2. Even 7f you deinstall Xposed, your modules are still installed and keep their settings. They're just not available without Xposed.

[Completed] Relationship between kernel, xposed and supersu

Just a simple question.
I have a phone with custom rom, kernel and recovery.
I have root (supersu), xposed framework (with some modules installed) and synapse (with lot of custom settings).
Now it's time to update the kernel flashing it via recovery.
When I flash the new kernel, I will lose supersu and xposed framework? I have to flash them again? What happens to the module that are installed? And, about synapse, I have to set all the settings again or the actual settings will stay?

Hi
As long as you have the latest Systemless root and SU by Chainfire (being around for months) you did not modified the system files of your phone and unroot (from SuperSU) yes is possible
Some people said is possible also no unroot necessary if you just fake system status

Thank you. So just uninstall xposed and unroot(or not) and i`m good.
How about TWRP recovery? To install Xposed i should use TWRP to flash it(or could i use FlashFire only?)
Also should i defrost all system apps that i froze them?

Hi
Option 1 Systemless root and systemless SuperSu ( Chainfire) no xposed (rovo89) , no system modification, no R/W systems, no TWRP , unroot from SuperSu , OTA possible
Option 1.1 use Flashfire guide here
Option 2 ( have not tested it) fake system status
In my experience trying to return Custom status to Official after rooting, even after removing root, is near impossible
That said, with this new systemless root, I haven't tried, but if you have altered any system files, which is generally what people use root for (Adblocking = Hosts file mod etc) then it won't return to Official unless you flash stock over the top again
Not seen this new status spoofer until now, be interested to see if that works
Thanks guys
So i guess with xposed it is impossible to get OTA, because to fake system status we need xposed but to get OTA we need to uninstall xposed.
Also *Detection* is right. We root our device to alter system.
So at the end we need download whole ~2gb firmware(flash, root, xposed, all other changing system thing again) for 20-30mb monthly security patch

Basically yep, unless you're not bothered about the security update and just wait for feature/performance updates
With my S5 I used to update every update, download the new ROM, flash with ODIN, TWRP > Root > Mod
Doesn't take too long tbh

After rooting is very hard to keep system "clean" enough ....if you meet the conditions is possible.....but to my by far *Detection* suggestion is easier...
status spoofer i have not tried ( I have a custom rom) ......

Xposed Bootloop

I just got my Xperia Z5 (E6603) and when I installed Xposed I got boot loops. I managed to fix this by removing xposed.
My phone has unlocked bootloader, is rooted and has TWRP. I'm running android 6.0.1 and androplus kernel 3.10.84-v31 on a stock rom 32.2.A.0.253
There is any version of Xposed that won't result in a bootloop? I've already tried version 83,85 and 87...
I'm running the 86 version, and I never had any issue
Which kernel and firmware version you're using? Stock rom? Could you send me the kernel you're using please?

I'm using the following and Xposed is working without issue on 32.2.A.0.305 for the E6653:
AndroPlus v41 - v41 should work with your firmware as well.
Material Design Xposed Installer - provides many more options for installing Xposed.
Systemless Xposed - you can flash this right from within the Material Design Xposed Installer I linked to above.
Thank you very much for answering. It seems the problem was some module or maybe a bad restore, since I restored the modules from a titanium backup. I deleted all modules and xposed and resintalled again from scratch and it worked.
Now I'm with the latest firmware, xposed and kernel and everything is working ok.

Hi, are you still receiving OTA with rooted and Xposed installed?
It seems TWRP disables OTA
I don't mind stock recovery, just need Xposed and OTA
Also, Magisk is optional for me. Don't really need it now

You won't be able to apply OTA with root. If you perform system modification (like in this guide), you'll have to flash whole system.img before applying new OTA. With Magisk and systemless Xposed it's enough to restore stock boot from within the app to apply OTA.

Can you link me the link of systemless APK of Xposed installer?

Safest way to install xposed?

hello!
I have an s6 edge (G925F), running on latest global elite ROM 4.1 (nougat 7.0), and I have latest Magisk (16.0).
I want to install Xposed framework, but I'm confused which way is the safest and less bootloop-y to install it.
should I install it systemlessly through Magisk manager [Xposed Framework (SDK 24)]? or should i flash it with twrp from this thread?
i really don't want to brick it or lose anything xD​

Both methods work.
I installed using the latest xposed installer apk & then it installed the latest xposed firmware & after a reboot which was quite long (more than 2 minutes), xposed was activated!

Install the latest xposed installer apk (non-magisk) from the official thread. Open the app & install the xposed framework & reboot. Reboot will take some time.
Then u can download some modules like GravityBox & activate & reboot to use it
If something goes wrong, idk. I think u have to try to get to twrp & dirty flash the rom you're using again.

Also you can download xposed uninstaller from official xposed site and if rom bootloops flash that in twrp and it will uninstall it and you can boot phone then.

It won't bootloop, after you flash xposed zip in twrp, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then reboot, it will work properly.
i think its working now as its shown in the screenshot..
it took like 6-7min to boot after flashing it.. is this normal?
will rebooting take longer now after installing xposed? or its just the first boot?
one more thing, what are the best modules for nougat?
and thanks all of you for help!
