[HELP] Boot loop after updating Greenify and Xposed Framework while running on ART

Here's the thing:
- I love Greenify and I really update mine regularly...so I tried to update whilst on Android ART
- I have the xposed framework at my disposal with my stock (rooted) Nexus 7 2013 4.4
- I updated and then I installed/update the thing in the first menu of the xposed framework and then from there I pressed "soft reboot"
Now it doesn't want to proceed to my launcher or anything. It's a soft-brick.
Any help/tip is appreciated.

Can you get into Safe Mode? If so you can try and remove the app, etc.
Can't post the link so:
Reboot to safe mode
If you’re experiencing issues - such as apps crashing, reboots, or fast battery drain - on your device, they could be caused by a third-party app. To check if this is the case, you can start up your device in safe mode, which temporarily disables third-party apps that you’ve installed.
Ensure your device's screen is on, then press & hold the Power button.
Touch & hold the Power off option in the dialog box.
Touch OK in the following dialog to start safe mode.
Try using your device in safe mode to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't, restart your device to get it out of safe mode and uninstall recently installed apps to see if you can pinpoint the one that’s causing the problem.

Xposed doesn't support KitKat yet. Sure you might be able to install the framework but modules have no effect. The developer is waiting for his N5 to arrive before working on a fix so sit tight and keep an eye on this thread for updates: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401

I haven't tried it on the N7 but on the N4 it installed but no modules worked. But the solution for now is just don't use Xposed until a 4.4 version becomes available.

Well according to the play store page of Greenify, the reason why i wanted to update is because they released a supposed to be new xposed patch for 4.4 android art users which is what i used. Had to dirty flash the rom to get this running again ugh. :/

Use the old version of Greenify...that's what I'm doing.
I also had to flash the ROM again.....lost my progress of lots of games.........:-/

[Q] How to safely uninstall Xprivacy ?

Hello,
I have installed Xposed Framework and Xprivacy successfully in my rooted stock HTC one (m8), everything was working fine but i didnt like how xprivacy bugged me whenever I updated an app. anyways I chose to disable the module.
So I went to Xposed app, disabled Xprivacy, I also uninstalled xprivacy manually after that in android's App management.
since then the phone keeps on restarting, it restarts and functions for a minute then automatically restarts.
I restored using a Nand recovery backup and now its working fine, but I still have Xprivaxy installed.
has anyone faced this issue? Also, does someone know a safe method to uninstall Xprivacy?
Thanks

Did you check if was already installed when you did the backup? It looks weird because TWRP does a wipe before restoring data, so Xprivacy should not be there anymore. Yoy can also try to wipe manually the data partition, but you will have to start config, install & update apps again from scratch.

Try to install it again and enable the module in Xposer, restart, then disable the module in Xposer, restart once more and then try to uninstall it.
Do a full restart every time, so disable the fast boot option in energy settings.
Good luck!

right now it is installed, ill try updating then uninstalling, Fastboot is turned off for my phone.
I tried wiping cache and dalvik cache, didnt work.
I hope someone has a solution, I want to uninstall it.

This is weird, I tried to install, enable, configure and then I uninstalled without any problem.
I'm using ARHD 8.0, but it's almost totally stock.
I'll try to check what files are installed with the package, and maybe you can try to remove them manually using filemanager from TWRP.

I'm sorry, I tried a lot things and I can't replicate your problem. Even if I try to uninstall it with the module enabled in Xposer does it works.
I've been reading at: https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/M66B/XPrivacy the uninstall methods and are the same we tried.
If you want to uninstall XPrivacy, you have two options:
1. Disable XPrivacy in the Xposed installer
2. Uninstall Xposed using the Xposed installer
I think I can't help you with this
Maybe you could try to uninstall and reinstall Xposer and see what happens...

Thanks for your assistance mate, I uninstalled Xprivacy again, this time I didnt disable the module in Xposed before uninstalling the App, I just uninstalled Xprivacy, it worked, no issues
So I guess an advise for anyone disabling or uninstalling Xprivacy would be to take a NAND backup of the phone before uninstalling incase the restart issue happens.
Thanks to all.

Great! I'm glad finally you get rid of that module! :highfive:
Make a Nandroid backup is always recommended for everyone having rooted devices, it takes less than 5 mins and saves a life... :good:

Mine also opens to dialer not history. As far modules go I'm using the XHangout, Xposed GEL Settings, and WiFiKeyView modules right now. XHangouts to change the hangouts theme color to match my setup.Used Xposed GEL to remove the white google search bar, from my Google Now Launcher Home screen(FYI i have setup that it will still open if you say "OK Google"), and Wifikeyview to see my saved passwords. It did add an option to copy password need to check that one again. If i install anymore ill update.

Okay, I Installed GravityBox (KK) to test it out and it works!

Anybody install busy box?

Yes.
GB KK is working. But for Status Bar Icons you need Xstana.

Any way to remove the network name (T-Mobile) in the status bar? GB Kk doesn't have that option to hide the network name in status bar.

I installed this and hdxposed thinking it would stop Amazon ota but I just got notification that kindle has been updated. So does hdxposed only block firmware updates, or is it broken altogether on fire phone?

Various app crashes

Bought my 5T last week (used) and immediately I installed magisk to root and xposed. Since then though I'm facing bizarre issues that come and go.
I was unable to add a Gmail account from settings as Google play services would crash
The Facebook messenger app would crash as soon as I open it, I downloaded the lite app and its OK.
The most common issue im seeing is Instagram crashing when I try to swap accounts. I can try to swap account, the app will hang and eventually crash. I try again and it will crash. But like an hour later it will be fine...
Also clearing dalvick and cache from TWRP seems to get it to work immediately.
I've had other things crash to which is strange as on my OP2 I had no such behaviour. The phone is lightning fast but these crashes are super annoying.
Anyone have any suggestions on what I could do? Not sure if reinstalling Oxygen OS could help and what's the most efficient way to do this while getting magisk/xposed back.

I have a 5T that has magisk installed. I did not install xposed yet and am not facing any if these issues. Maybe try uninstalling Xposed and cleaning cache?

Should be cause of some xposed modules, elaborate the versions of magisk, xposed and the modules installed. And your oos version too. And substratum?

I've got xposed 90.2-beta3(systemless) installed, version 3.1.5
Android 8.1.0 - Oxygen OS 5.1.2
Magisk manager is 5.7.0 and installed version is 16.4 (though it says latest version is 16.0)
Only have 3 xposed modules actually installed.. ChromePie, SnapTools Beta and Xinsta. I could disable the xposed status for a few days and see how I get on, I assume that is enough without uninstalling it? Not sure

There should not be issue with things what you have mentioned above. These modules too are app specific, and what about substratum and magisk modules?

yeah exactly, like I uninstalled xinsta but it didn't stop it crashing (sometimes) when switching accounts... Even Magisk just crashed a minute ago as soon as I opened it to get the version, it was fine when I re-opened it.
Substratum I've never heard of before
Magisk modules all I have is Xposed framework and Youtube Vanced

Again no issues could be caused by these. Maybe try updating the apps you specified or try different older version
Try this older fb messenger for example https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=889964283620770051

It just seems to be related to quite a few apps so trying different versions would be annoying, might try it with Instagram as its the most annoying.. Just went into recovery and wiped dalvic cache to switch accounts again.

Nope

I did an OTA update which caused the phone to not be rooted and went back to stock recovery.
I used it for a few days and had no crashes, especially Instagram when switching accounts. Yesterday I flashed TWRP and installed Magisk root again and since have had crashes again... odd.

Question [Root] Device crashing & rebooting after one minute of usage

I'm using a Pixel 6 Pro rooted and after 1 minute of using the device the device completely freezes and reboots. This happened one day after I rooted my phone and I rebooted my device and it completely stopped working. The logs provided in Magisk don't seem to be useful nor point to the main issue. Safe mode doesn't have this issue, but I'm looking to see how to fix this issue. I'm running TQ1A.230105.002 build. I can try and install a module to help diagnose the issue if it's useful.
Magisk modules installed: Universal Safetynet
Zygisk: Enabled
Rooted apps: Greenify, GoogleDialerMod, Shizuku, Storage Isolation, BBS

Do you have any Magisk mods installed? If so, one of them may be causing it given you don't have any problems in safe mode.

My bad, I'll edit the post right now. The freezing does occur even after denying all of them permissions

If it is a module just type in adb magisk –remove-modules
there's also a magisk module that disables misbehaving modules at boot to protect against bootloop it's called magisk bootloop protector

I've seen another person who had similar problems while using Greenify, so maybe try to uninstall that and see if the problem persists.
Also, if you booted into safe mode and rebooted your modules should be disabled. Does the problem persist with those mods disabled?

No safe mode is completely fine, but I will look into uninstalling Greenify and see if the problem is fixed.

I'm not sure why Greenify has been so problematic recently, it even crashes on non-root devices. Maybe it's out of date for such a long time?

I find Greenify and similar apps aren't really needed these days.
