Magisk systemless + Gravitybox v7.0.4 module works on stock

Enough said really. If you don't know about GravityBox module, you can use it to perform a good amount customization on menus, button actions, lock screen, etc. For example, 30 volume step mod, circle battery with percentage, randomization of pin numbers on lockscreen, extended power menu with reboot options/screenshot/screen recording, etc.
Grab the regular (NOT the non FBE version).
It can be found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v7-0-0-tweak-box-android-t3653953
If you don't have Xposed systemless installed, download and install the sdk25 version (download zip and add module from magisk manager) from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268
As always, Xposed systemless framework enabled will cause SafetyNet to fail. So if you want to use Snapchat, Android Pay, Pokemon GO, Mario GO, new versions of Netflix, etc.; you'll have to disable the framework and then reboot currently. This hasn't been an issue for me so far!

Have you had any luck with any Magisk's modules? I can't get them to work. I can't get any black out apps to work via TRWP flashing either. It's gotta have sitting to do with the a/b partition, right?

The Xposed framework systemless v88.2 is the only module I actually have in magisk. Most magisk modules don't seem to have been updated for the magisk systemless 14+ betas.

Ok, after a couple of reboots, I got a few of them to work. BusyBox, Greenify, and the black themed injected YouTube back ground playback (which is amazing BTW) are all working now. Although, my phone doesn't pass safetynet now.

Does status bar colouring work on GravityBox on the Essential? I ask because colouring the status bar black across all system and apps would basically give an illusion of equal top and bottom bezels but with light up notifications and icons which imo would look pretty cool and hide the camera notch.

You need to install the xposed framework apk as well located in the attachments of the xposed systemless thread in order to enable and manage xposed modules. Found here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268 and called XposedInstaller_3.1.4_Magisk.apk

I have a question for ya. Do u know where to find the recent app settings in gravity box. I can't find them. I want to switch to bottom right. It's been so long since I've used it and it's changed. Thanks

This is great, thanks for the headsup. Being able to use GB+xp makes running stock an awesome experience AND I get to use the 360 cam.
The cam is really the catz azz .
don't use AP as my cc app works regardless.

How do I add it in magisk? When I click the plus I can select the zip but?

GravityBox Beta for Oreo Released

I installed it last night on Beta 3. Everything's good so far. I haven't made a lot of tweaks, but the ones I've made work, and I haven't had any problems with force-closes or anything.

What version of xposed are you using? I'm having issues getting it up and running.
Thanks in advance!

I'm running version 90.1-beta3 systemless for SDK 26 installed from Magisk.

Same but no app icon appears. . Any recommendations?

Can you launch it from within the Xposed installer?

Xposed shows as installed within magisk but no icon for Xposed.

I think you also need to install the Xposed Installer. At least I did. It'll provide you with the UI to install and manage modules. I installed it from the link below. Just pick the one that matches the version you installed in Magisk.

You installed the wrong Xposed to get the installer...
Go to the Xposed thread and download the installer...
Make sure it's the one topjonwu modified... And reboot...

If you're on latest Oreo fw (.51) and have twrp recovery installed, just follow the instructions. And If so, please report back here later.
I'm planning to create a systemless version with a magisk module, so we don't need twrp to get it working. Stay tunned!
Edit: This ^^ does not seem like a good idea due to the startup queue of the magisk modules, but I'll check this out anyways when I have some spare time! Do not stay so tunned

Thanks Serajr. I'll try it in a few hours and report if it succeeds

Thanks bro... but no, it won't (unfortunately). It'd be in case the fix won't be necessary.
The fix itself must be present in the system way before magisk starts to do its bind mount task, otherwise system won't boot (in case user installs xposed framework magisk module).
The best thing to do in this case is staying with your excellent TWRP, and simply flash the zip

Confirmed working for xz2c. Haven't had time to set up modules (need to go to birthday party now) after downgrade to Oreo. But flashing the Fix/framework went through without problems.

Thanks for your feedback! :good:
Modules may indeed cause issues, so take care on which ones you install. Xposed log always shows us what's going on.

Most recent versions of FB Messenger app crashes due to conflicts with Xposed Framework. It has been reported on XDA.
This can be temporarily fixed using the october 27 version of Messenger: download here
Use this version (this is the latest working version) and do not update it (disable its autoupdate in the app and in Play Store app)

lol... master serajr I was waiting for your reply in private and missed this thread!
so wonderful I enabled now xposed also in my xz2c thanks to your fix, you are the man I love you!
now the phone is perfect... I have date in status bar, dt2s in lock screen, actions for navbar buttons, separate volumes, skip tracks etc etc etc
my friend you made my week!! :laugh::victory::highfive:
EDIT: someone would know how to make a xposed module to make the quicksettings panel white? (like oreo stock and better matching white settings app for example )

Really? How can I reproduce that here?
I don't use FB, but for testings purposes I installed both FB and FB Messenger from Google Play (latest versions) and got no errors/crashes/fc (my wife logged in the apps). Ofc I don't have any FB related xposed module installed.

Can't you also create something that activates the complete dark ui...? ?

Yes if you create a complete dark UI (for notifications of apps and parameters, you would be the best)!

[HOW TO] Install Xposed Framework in any of Pie (9.0) ROM.

Hello Everyone!
It's been a while since i surf in here, just wanted to give a tutorial about how to install Xposed Framework in this Redmi Note 5, check this out ( do with your own risk! backup is a must, tested in the latest Pixel Experience ROM)
Before you proceed, you need to have Magisk installed and make sure its working in your device. Now lets install Xposed.
First Step:
- Download EdXposed Installer.apk and EdXposed Magisk zip module Here
- Download RiruCore Magisk zip Module Here
Second Step:
- First, install the EdXposed Installer first.
- Then, Flash the RiruCore magisk module.
- Lastly, Flash the EdXposed Magisk module then reboot.
Third Step:
- Open the EdXposed app and see if the status is green, that means the xposed framework is now working on your device, and you can proceed to download and install xposed module you want. (Note: this is still in beta, so that means not all Xposed Module will work 100%, install with caution or you can check in Here to see the list of what working and what not so far.)
-Enjoy.
Sorry if some of you already know on how to do this, i just wanted to share it with you guys, since i haven't see any of similar thread like this.
Have a good day, hope this one helps :good:

needy guide

Thanks for that...
But..
If have ore supported xposed please share us.

Tried this on my whyred running Pixel Experience Pie ROM. Worked as expected. Of the modules I tested, some are working fine, some aren't. GravityBox developer is working on a Pie release, waiting for that!

K-Klock. I use xXx no limits magisk rom that has an option to install it. Works great for centering, adding date, changing font. Bunch of stuff you can do with it. You do need to open the app first and configure your settings, build the apk within K Manager then open substratum and install.
If you are not aware, I always get the best results by building and installing, reboot, then enable.

Looks right. I just had it installed with the xXx-nolimits profile.

Xposed and gravitybox is all you need and is the most reliable, fool proof method to get what you are requesting for clock, date, clock format, and clock locations. Plus I'm sure you will find other options useful as well. I use it for the clock, lock screen shortcuts, and to remove that god awe full blur that OP implemented on Android 10's lock screen music background art.

What exactly does Ed posed do and do I flash them via Magisk.
Tried Kclock and loaded it up via substratum. Then tried simple thing like put clock in status bar in the middle and no joy. Also no option to have date on status bar. Unless I'm missing something?

EdXposed is the xposed framework for Android 10 (maybe earlier too) it is installable through magisk. Which is kinda like magisk, you can download and use different modules. Use the 4.5.5 version I linked.
GravityBox is a module for EdXposed. Install it through EdXposed Manager. Only working version for A10 is the one I link. Beta 10.0.5.
So you have to go into K-Manager first before substratum. Select all your desired options, then hit the bottom right floating button. Now you have to go to substratum and install it.

TaiChi Xposed is also an option and actually better in my opinion because you can activate and deactivate modules on the fly.
