I read I need that to use this "sense toolbox" which will allow some nifty trick but even tho in rooted I haven't flashed any custom roms. Can I get xposed on top of my rooted stock phone? Thanks

Yes, you can.
For the lollipop version:

Thank you! Hey, I.never got lollipop. Anyway I just read "gravity box" isn't compatible with sense. Isn't that what this phone uses stock?

Unless you have a GPE version, than yes the stock M8 has Sense.
xposed has its own forum section: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed
And thread for Gravity Box is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-gravitybox-v3-1-4-tweak-box-android-t2316070
Thanks. Are those the best best available options for tweeking this phone while remaining stock?

There are a variety of different xposed modules, and also some mods available separate from xposed (see Themes and Apps forum section for M8). What is "best" is a matter of opinion, and depends also exactly what tweaks you are looking for.
Gotcha. Yeah I've downloaded a lot of them so far. Did a backup beforehand and an just trying each one 1x1. Pretty cool.

Well not really. Because they have different homescreens and looks like different splash screens too. Not sure about by Smarberg, can't see any screenshots. Now ARHD is "closer to stock" because when you first you use it everything is the same as a stock ROM (eg homescreens, widgets etc.).

You'd have to specify what you want from stock and what you don't for anyone to answer that.

Leedroid is good, i'm using it rght now!
You have some good little tweaks also as the Leedroid Tweaks is included with the ROM.

But I think the OP means by "closer to stock" is that no visual changes like the ARHD ROMs. Well that's my interpretation of "closer to stock".

Once chefs starts changing honescreens and splash screens I consider that as getting further away from being "closer to stock" IMO.

i am really missing that feature on the stock rom...

Not really sure but I think Leedroid has them. But like I said I'm not 200% sure on that because i haven't used it.

I was thinking of using Titanium Back-up to remove unnecessary files and bloatware on my phone. The problem is, what can be safely removed and still have my phone function properly?
I'm running stock 4.3 rooted.
Thanks,

*Note* I can't stand Touchwiz so I can't help with personal experience. I had just found these links when I first got my phone last year but then I promptly started installing Cyanogenmod based ROMs.
Thank You very much, these links are exactly what I am looking for.

Sorry, double post.

Your welcome, I'm glad to have helped. You might want to check out the Aroma Installer as I believe it lets you choose which Stock Apps you want to keep. I might be mistaken on this but I'm pretty sure it's right. I know that some Custom Stock based ROMs use the Aroma Installer though. And sorry I don't have a link for that but you can find the Stock based ROMs in the Android Development thread.
Also, it has to be s-on. :good:

CyanogenMod 12 is the first that comes to my mind, but it's not stable. I don't have any other ideas right now. If you had S-OFF you could convert it to a Google Play Edition device.

S-on has nothing to do with a custom rom....please read and read until you are acquainted with the terms and needs of a custom rom.
and there is no best rom out there. There is a best rom for you but only you can decide which is the best for yourself. We all seek different setups and preferences in a rom.
Happy hunting

If the question is put as 'which is easier to install', then what would the answer? CM?

all of them is easier if you can read the instructions
All roms are pretty much installed the same way.
Make a full wipe (so you don't mingle up 2 different roms)
Install the rom zip
Reboot
ViperOneM8. But I might be biased.
But it does allow for the most customization from any Sense based ROM. Check it out.
Be careful with the volume if you install CM. Don't use it at max, protect your speakers.

Try this. I use it on ROMS that don't have a lot of font choices and it works great. No root needed.

You mean they just uninstall by themselves? I've never run into that issue and I've used alot of the fonts on there. Hmmmm, well that is the only one I use. If you were rooted you could flash a font mod but since you're not I guess the playstore is your only option. Maybe there are some other apps in there that will work better for you. Sorry couldn't help more.

I wish I was rooted too... The thing is this phone is too complicated to root... I don't understand it at all. People have tried and tried and there's no root that states its for marshmallow... I wanna root it to install many things but can't.

I see you have an AOSP based rom tho. Xposed always had little trouble working on those. I wonder if anyone with stock or stock-ish ROM got it working. I tried, but as of right now, just like xposed dev said, it bootloops. I guess I will wait for something stable.

Really? Well, I guess that xposed installer just shows a general status then. Well anyway, I found a rom that has xposed preinstalled for S9+ so I went with that. A lot of things crashing tho, can't even search for anything in play store :/ Guess I will wait for a stable version.
