I haven't seen a clear answer on this, so does anybody know what root methods still work after the new update? If they all still do, is there anything I should do differently in the rooting process?
You have to wait till one of the methods gets an upgrade
BAD ASS G3
Well seeing as how the d851 boot loader is shipping unlocked from T-Mobile I think it would be pretty safe to say that once you manage to properly install the 10m OTA, you would simply flash TWRP from purpledrake in fastboot and from there flash supersu.

I used Stump root and mine is rooted again. I had to use the brute force root to get it done in Stump. After that I installed SuperU, TWRP and Busy Box.

Purpledrake probably replaced the M boot.img with the C boot.img. If it did that means your back on the C kernel and if it didn't you no longer have the modded disabled root checker.

If you don't mind me asking, how did you flash the TWRP? with TWRP manager from the Playstore? did you pick your phone trough the menu or did you downloaded the img. file ? I'm rooted with the new update but I want to flash TWRP, thanks

I appreciate the fact that many will think this thread is a complete waste of time, but i'm struggling to find out how to actually do this with the G4. I have an unlocked bootloader and TWRP 2.8.7.0 installed, but from what i've read the latest Xposed Framework installer (v79) is still causing bootloops on this phone. Are there any safe methods to install Xposed without using the drawn out solution posted here?

Just make sure you have the uninstaller to hand if you need it and also take a back up. I have used xposed on stock 5.1 and stock 6 also cm12.1 and cm13 so there shouldn't be any issues here

Sorry, i'm an idiot. I'll see whether it works, but there's plenty of people in rovo89's Xposed thread that have experienced bootloops with the G4 and this latest version.

I don't think you are an idiot... You have actually taken the time to read the thread and check compatibility which is very smart.
I know v79 skd23 works on cm13 and genesis v3.5 so any marshmallow based roms should be fine. If you have issues then use the uninstaller and if that fails then restore the backup you have taken. No harm done. If you do have issues I'm sure a fresh install of your rom of choice and then install xposed (and nothing else at the same time, plus wipe dalvik and cache) should sort you out.

Thank you for being so kind. I went into TWRP and flashed the file, but unfortunately i ended up with the bootloop. So then i went to boot into recovery by holding the power buttons, but all it gives me is the LG recovery and not TWRP. So now my phone is essentially bricked and i've only had it a week.

We're okay, i sorted it. Never been so scared in my life, thought the phone was done for because i had no ADB or Fastboot to save me. It turns out that by choosing the factory reset option in the LG recovery, it simply boots straight to TWRP because the default recovery is missing. Then i was able to flash the Xposed uninstaller and it booted fine afterwards.

Sorry..... That's your issue. I actually told you wrong yesterday. I meant to say stock based marshmallow rather than stock. It will work with genesis v3.5 which is stock based and an easy flash of you are already on marshmallow. It's due to xposed needing the system to be deodexed.

If you are on stock MM make sure to install deodex apps which you can find on xda.

Is there an xposed runtime .zip or whatever for the marshmallow update to Sprint s6 to be able to use xposed modules?
I still have:
xposed-v80.0-sdk22-arm64-custom-build-by-wanam-20160211.zip
Which worked on LP, but I don't want to flash it and mess up the phone if it's not supposed to be for this version.

There's a marshmallow version of xposed in the original thread, however, we don't have twrp yet. There's no way to flash a zip without that, at least that I know of. I'm sure we won't be waiting too long for twrp though.
Should same mm version work?

No, that is from the official xposed thread, not the one for Samsung phones. This thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960
xposed-v80.0-sdk23-arm64-custom-build-by-wanam-20160211.zip is the file you want to download.

I've gotten a full day of heavy use with a custom ROM, I didn't make it to 5pm today. I had greenify and amplify working on the custom rom though, so hopefully now that we have recovery, I can test out xposed and get some of those things back. This was my first Samsung phone, I'm not sure I'd go to the S7 after this experience. I came from a phone that easily got 1.5 days on a charge.

I can't get this working correctly.
I installed flashfire and flash the zip and let it keep the option to mount system read/write, and i see it unpacking files, and then the screen goes blank and eventually i have to force it to reboot.
After reboot, xposed apk says it's not installed.
Is there some other way to flash the zip?

You used flashfire? That won't do it for me. After extracting, goes to a black screen and I have to force a reboot, then xposed afterwards says it's not installed.
Worked just fine for me. For multiple different files. V4a, xposed, and a couple other things.
Screenshots added for exact settings I used.
Flashfire takes a few minutes to load once it does all that unpacking. My suggestion would be to be patient before forcing a reboot.

I just rooted my HTC 10 and installed Xposed and got the Youtube Adaway Module. My previous phone was a Z3 where I had used GravityBox which ran fine. Since this is my first HTC device will the GravityBox MM work for this device or is there an alternative besides GravityBox.
Thanks Again.
As I remember GravityBox is programmed to run on and with AOSP based ROMs. Now when it comes to HTC, stock ROMs aren't AOSP based. I never used it myself though and I'm a long time HTC user. If you want you can try it if course, but should perform a backup prior to doing so.

Just tried and it works, only needed GravityBox to show the AM/PM and change the battery icons. Can't say about the other features on it as I only needed these two functions. Also got Xposed working with greenify, and Youtube Adblock. Looks like I am good to go for a while!

first off, I mean this the best way possible. You need to be both more clear and more complete in your posts and questions. I could (and many would) very much give you a hard time but will try to help you.
1. If I'm not mistaken, that is a TWRP error. You can do a forum or google search and you'll find many threads about it with options.
2. Post the TWRP log so we can see what happend, or take a screenshot so we can see exactly what the output text on the screen was before the error.
3. Are you using TWRP? I assume so if you're on an HTC 10.
4. I simply flashed the proper exposed module in TWRP.
Long story short way too many variables to simply answer your question. You could wipe the cache and reboot into recovery, re copy the .zip to your SD or adb push it over. and reflash

If you look at the screenshot it tells you exactly what the problem is. Did you even read it?
Tell us what it says directly before the error?
"system mounted as read only file system" - you didn't mount as read/write. You have to mount R/W for SU and anything like this you're going to flash.
Try again, this time set the system to mount as R/W and be sure to read and watch what you're doing.
People are here to help but the trade-off is you must make efforts and not solely rely on others to solve your problems.

You have to unlock the bootloader too. Unblocking the bootloader will wipe your device.
As a rule of thumb, I always unlock bootloader on day one of purchasing my devices. (mostly Nexus or OP so far). This way you avoid potentially losing data.
Or u can download systemless xposed which will allow to turn on and off to use Android pay

root (access) is obtained via apps like SuperSU
xposed has nothing to do with root access - it is an additional framework allowing for low level modifications (like amplify, etc)
unlocking bootloader is always the first step, from there you can flash supersu (which is NOT just an APK file).
there's a number of threads about it that can explain it better than i.
