Xposed Framework caused Bootloop with .139 Firmware - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

OK, so I've always rooted my phone via Method 2, using the method of a tethered CWM recovery to root,. and have always unrooted prior to installing an update. I did the exact same thing with my phone when the new update .139 came out. I always also had XposedFramework installed via the ADB method where I just ran InstallXposedFramework.bat and InstallXposedInstaller.bat to install it. Now, little did I know I should have read the thread on .139 firmware BEFORE installing the latest update and Xposed because apparently that causes a bootloop. So now, I'm stuck with a bootloop. I've tried running RemoveXposedFramework.bat to get me out of the situation but to no avail, phone still goes into a bootloop.
So is there anyway I can get out of this bootloop without completely wiping my phone? My bootlocker is still locked and can only get into a tethered CWM recovery. And if I truly do need to wipe my to get everything working again, how should I do this? Any help would be useful right now.

I had the same issue. Just install the .139 again. It works fine for me without wipes

Anyone found a fix yet for this yet?

If you're referring to getting rid of the bootloop itself, from the help of another forum member, I got it fixed to get out of the bootloop. Here's the link. I managed to keep all of the data on my phone's internal memory as well. You lose root but it's easy to re-root it again.
In terms of Xposed Framework working with .139, supposedly V78 of Xposed works.

I was able to get out of the bootloop by re-sideloading .139, and for the xposed, yeah, I found a very useful post on the Zenfone 2 subreddit about how v78 fixes the bootloop. I had been trying to flash v74. All good now.

For all those who are stuck in bootloop when trying to install xposed after upgrading to latest version. I got my bootloop issue solved without any data loss. In the zip file containing xposed installer there is also a file which will remove xposed. Execute it when the phone is in bootloop.
Now the phone will reboot but will again be stucked in bootloop. To solve this download zenfone 1 Click Root Tool. Run the unroot file when the phone is in bootloop. After that your phone will reboot and will work fine but you will have lost root and xposed. You can re-root your phone and there will be no bootloop. But installing xposed will result in bootloop.
I will check if latest version of xposed works without bootloop and update. For now no xposed on latest firmware
There is no need to sideload the latest version. I got dead android while trying to apply update again.

Sorry I forgot to post the link of how I was able to flash the zip of the new firmware previously. It seems like you already fixed this but I'll still post it anyway.

Phone is stuck in bootloop! [SOLVED]

Hi,
I understand this is probably a common problem with a simple fix, but this is my first attempt to root. My phone is unlocked and s-off, running 3.37.605.7. I used TWRP to install SuperSU and then after rebooting, it was stuck in a bootloop. After doing some research I think maybe I installed the wrong version of SuperSU, but I can't figure out how to fix it. I did a backup with adb beforehand, but when I tried restoring it said to unlock my phone and confirm, and I can't unlock my phone. I tried doing the restore command with TWRP open and it seemed to do something at first, but then nothing. I'm really stuck and would appreciate some help.
Thanks!
Are you wanting to keep the data you have on the phone or, would you be OK with starting fresh?

I'm fine with losing data. Actually I just flashed the RUU again and it's working again. I'll try to root again later.

After you get TWRP back, flash View attachment BETA-SuperSU-v2.65.zip to get root.
I just went through the same mess as you with the newer SuperSu versions. I read somewhere that 2.65 was the latest that would work and this is the zip I used.

Losing root on reboot

I recently flashed v30b on my D855. I did a clean (CSE) flash with the LG flash tool 2014 and rooted the device with KingRoot. But every time I reboot I lose root acces.
I installed the bump'd version of TWRP with flashify, but when I try to boot into TWRP I get a MISMATCH_SIG_LEN error before the screen goes black and the led starts blinking. I then pull out the battery to start over with a fresh unrooted phone. I think I loose root acces before entering recovery or something. I did some searching, but the only solution I found was to do a clean install, which I already did.
My goal is to install TWRP to flash custom ROMs. How do I fix this?
I think that after installing root with kingroot you will need to perm root it. Kingroot is only temporaty and even if you uninstall it you get unrooted.

I'm having a sort of similar problem on my D85130d. I downgraded fine from 30g to 30d with LGUP. downloaded kingroot and rooted. That was all good. Installed TWRP and flashed the recovery rom and was able to make a backup of my current stock rom (which has saved my life because I think I've soft bricked my phone about 4 times trying to permanent root hahah). Since I AM new to rooting I think I'm missing a certain step, (or maybe the zips im trying to flash are corrupt?) Basically, tried https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...wngrading-rooting-t3608851/page3#post74961164 and I've also tried https://forum.xda-developers.com/tm...ock-d851-30d-kdz-flashable-zips-imgs-t3367371. The problem with the first one is its not completely specific and like I mentioned before, I'm a white belt at rooting lol. The second thread gave me hope and i do have TWRP installed so I downloaded the 2 main zips I would need (a. LG-D85130D-Flashable.Boot-AUTOREPACK.zip
and b. SuperSU zip) reboot to recovery and flashed both zips separately then reboot. But I end up with a TMO screen and it stays like that. This last time I even left it loading on that screen for about 2 hours and no such luck. I'm wondering is there something I'm missing? Any help would be greatly appreciated from the XDA gods

To be fair, i perma rooted the v30B variant. Im not sure bout the D. I rooted it with kingroot, installed TWRP via autorec, i went in recovery and flashed the file thats in the post, rebooted and then installed supersu from the playstore and im perma rooted. After that kingroot is gone and you are left with supersu. This is the guide i followed https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/root-twrp-marshmallow-d855-30b-t3286268

Need help! Magisk v17 bootloop

Hi Everyone,
I need some help. The short of it is that Magisk has put me into a bootloop. Here is what I have done to end up at this point:
1) Attempted to install Magisk v17 when the notification popped up. This failed and then removed root from my phone but the phone was working normally otherwise at this point.
2) Attempted to run the Magisk Uninstaller zip in TWRP. It appeared to run fine.
3) Attempted to run the Magisk v17 zip while still in TWRP right after running the Uninstaller. It appeared to run fine.
4) Attempted to reboot and this is where my real trouble began. I am now stuck in a bootloop.
5) Got back into TWRP
6) Attempted to run the Uninstaller again. This time it fails with an error.
7) I then attempted to boot into bootloader mode. I was able to get there but then running "fastboot devices" shows no phone attached.
I'm at a loss of what to do now and I really don't want to factory reset. Is there anything I can do to get out of this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
OK so I have since been able to reflash boot.img and I'm now able to boot the phone. Still not sure what to do about getting root back though.

What about rooting and then unrooting? I want to root my phone to move some apps to system and then unroot my phone. Some of the apps and games I have still detect Magisk even with Magisk Hide and running core only mode.
Any idea?

Don't root the phone then and read on how to relock your phone is my personal advice. Had a similar issue with the German skygo app and it was detecting the unlock.

I don't have issue with it detecting that the bootloader is unlocked.
The apps that detected root only detect that part. I even have TWRP still running with the stock image reflashed.
Just want to find a reliable source of how to unroot phone after rooting. I think I know what to do and it is all related to the boot.img
I just have to try it.

Root & Xposed on WW_17.1810.1910.73 & Update WW_17.1810.1911.110

Hello i found a little way for have root & and working xposed with no bug on last firmware WW_17.1810.1910.73 & WW_17.1810.1911.110
Stock Recovery
You need adb drviers and unlocked ZenFone 6 on WW_17.1810.1910.73 or WW_17.1810.1911.110
First install last Magisk Manager
Open setting of Magisk and add custom update channel https://github.com/solohsu/magisk_files#custom-update-channel
Download ZenFone6RootXposed-10.73.img or ZenFone6RootXposed-11.110 (i have add stock boot11.110.img, we will need it for next update)
http://www.mediafire.com/folder/skzceszqu8d3j/AsusZenFone6
Now reboot device to bootloader
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
And boot with ZenFone6RootXposed-10.73.img or ZenFone6RootXposed-11.110 (not flash it, your device have a chance to bootloop)
Code:
fastboot boot ZenFone6RootXposed-10.73.img
Code:
fastboot boot ZenFone6RootXposed-11.110.img
The devices reboot automaticly
Go to Magisk and install Magisk, choose direct install
Reboot and Enjoy root
if you want Xposed flash it with magisk :
Riru Core
I use YAHFA
Android 10 ElderDrivers Xposed
And the manager
Xposed Installer​
Good morning
I have tried several times root for Android 10
The Magisk part works smoothly, but the Xposed part never works, producing a bootloop
I have extracted the boot and applied magisk, loaded the Riru Core module, but when loading ElderDrivers, the phone stays in bootloop
Do you know what the reason may be?
Works splendid, great guide!
Tried to use Sandhook first, but ended up with YAHFA instead due some xposed problems (xposed not detected).
Had an old version of Android 9, so i first upgraded it to "UL-ASUS_I01WD-ASUS-16.1220.1909.194-1.1.1" (only supported upgrade path - 9 to 10), then to "UL-ASUS_I01WD-ASUS-17.1810.1910.73-1.1.1-user" (your specified .73)
- Later patching with your img
Thanks
it is impossible
Starting with .73 stock
at the moment I install Riru Yahfa, following the manual, it does not start again, unless install the official boot
the device stays on the Zenfone boot screen without doing anything else
I have tried the version supplied by Magisk, I don't know if you have tried another version
Why will we need the stock boot for the next update? We can't make menully update after root? I just want to make root not install xposed.
Sent from my ASUS_I01WD using Tapatalk
thanks a lot, this a really easy way to get root, but i have a little issue, i had my phone with NO pin code or fingerprint before using this method, and now if i want to ad a pin, password or gesture it simply does not get saved, every time i do the procedure to set the pin it does like if i did nothing, anyone has this issue, or know how to fix it, is there a problem if i hard reset?
any help will be good
In the latest build .110 ctsprofile is false while basicintegrity is true. Is it due to the root or the rom has not been signed by google?

Don't flash Xposed using Magisk Download, flash it manualy :
EdXposed v0.4.6.0_beta
You will always get bootloop with v0.4.5.1_beta
_______________________________________
UPDATE for 11.110
flash boot.10.73.img for update safe
And do the same with 11.110 files.
Don't forget to add custom update channel in Magisk
And use v0.4.6.0_beta for xposed

Someone try this method to install xposed? I afraid to get bootloop.
Sent from my ASUS_I01WD using Tapatalk
Hi everyone, I hope somebody can help me out to solve an issue I just got with my zenfone,
After using an advise from DaConcho for getting back screen lock after unlocking bootloader I got in another situation.
I followed the instructions from the post and everything was going fine, I boot thought adb with the provided patched boot for Q .110 and that far no issues , when I open magisk manager to download magisk from the alternative source magisk manager prompt to complete the installation downloading some necessary files, not the magisk version, just said some files, and I click yes, then it installed something and reboot, phone started fine, but when I wanted to start the process again I found out that I loose PC connectivity.
I have no connection at all, even if I manually boot in bootloader I can't connect to PC, so no adb commands,
Please can someone help

This worked great, thanks. Only issue I met was that I couldn't see the OEM unlock switch, so it didn't let me to flash TWRP from Odin (even though it was already unlocked), giving me "only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed(recovery)" error.
The solution for that was following these steps: https://www.xda-developers.com/fix-...y-s9-samsung-galaxy-s8-samsung-galaxy-note-8/
EDIT: no wait, maybe it's bootlooping.
EDIT2: yes it is. I'm using italian carrier, you?
EDIT3: at the end I created a custom boot.img by using Magisk and I flashed it. In this way I kept encryption and stock recovery, but this doesn't give me write permissions in /system. But I do have root.

after you flashed twrp and formated data you just have to flash magisk and that's it

I done that, but still stuck on SAMSUNG logo, no boot loop or what. I was waiting 10min, nothing happened.
Any advice?
Hi there,
after having tried different methods to root my S9, which has updated to Android 10 One UI 2.0 this morning, maybe the solution that finally worked for me will help you too.
First I tried to root just like in Pie, as found on the net: flashed TWRP 3.2.3 via Odin, then flashed Magisk with TWRP plus this no-verity-opt-encrypt. Got stuck in bootloop, tried different no-verity/dm-verity versions, Magisk 18.x and Magisk 20.1. Nothing worked, got stuck again every time i rebootet the system again.
Then, after realising that I CANT get back to Android 9 (old rom wasnt Odin flashable anymore, phone didnt boot, BSoD), I first downloaded the new stock rom and bootloader as zip, got it from here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81615561&postcount=1830.
You have to check if that fits with your version / phone. Once downloaded, I copied both onto my SD card. So now I was able to install at least the new clean stock rom. Oh, and now I used the TWRP version 3.3.1.
Then I found this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s9/development/root-s9plus-exynos-android10-t4065343
At first I tried to root without the SoLdieR9312's mod, only with MAGISK 20.3 and no-verity. Stuck again, it only bootet to download mode, nothing else. So flashed again the clean stock rom, and after first not keeping the right order (I suppose) I finally followed EXACTLY the instructions 1 - 4 in above manual including SoLdieR9312's mod (I highly recommend first a complete Wipe, format data, and then flash the clean new Rom with Android 10 and bootloader from above link).
Now, to save you the time I spent today: once your phone is bootet (and succesfully rooted via Magisk 20.3, which will happen automatically due to the SoLdieR9312's mod), DONT LET MAGISK UPDATE TO VERSION 20.4!!!! Magisk Manager asks you to update, but when I did update to 20.4, everything fell apart again, it only bootet to download mode.
Now I seem to have it stable and running with 20.3 and the [email protected]. I rebootet 5 times so far just for the sake of it, and it works fine and rootet.
If I can be of further help, please let me know. I spent the last 12 hours on this matter, so dont hesitate.
Greetz from me minus a bunch of nerves
PS: After I wrote the above, I deleted the Knox family in the rootet system, and then it collapsed again and, after BSoD, it only rebootet into download mode. I can not exclude the possibility, that this might have been the reason for some system breakdowns before, as I had to re-do the wipe-clean-install-then-root-then-customize worksteps aroung 8 times yesterday before it was stable as it is now. Now I´ll leave Knox on it, though that itches me a bit. But I´m exhausted for now
PPS: IMPORTANT when I try to create a PIN or a pattern for the lock screen, phone reboots to SIM card PIN screen and then keeps rebooting and rebooting. It looks like there are some interferences with root and PIN / security. I did NOT create a Samsung account, only a google one, cause in the beginning i suspected it might have been a Sam acct problem (I constantly couldnt log into it on the phone). Turns out that might not have been the case, rather a prob between root and setting a lock screen security.
