Wanting to install Xposed, a little confused - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've installed the Nexus Root Toolkit on my computer and rooted/unrooted a couple times just so I know how the process goes, but I'm wanting to check out Xposed and I don't know what to flash. Can someone help me out? The toolkit flashed SuperSU 2.74 and I'm on build MTC19Z if all of that matters.

Download the last version from here
http://dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/sdk23/arm64/
flash the zip then install the apk xposed installer
sdk 23 means android M

SuperSU needed to install Binaries Question.

I have been running my N7 for days now and today when I opened SuperSU it needed to install binaries so I rebooted into TWRP and saw that it did the update.
I also see I am now on version 1.51. Anyone else have to do an update? Does this update completely fix the google root restrictions on Android v4.3?

I had absolutely no problems with root and ARHD 50.2. Flash it again, and DON'T flash SuperSU when twrp ask for it.
If it's still give problems, just flash latest SuperSU for MM and it should work without problems.

Help With Installing OTA, Root, Xposed, TWRP, and a Process For Future OTAs!

I'm trying to install the new OTA that was just released while keeping Xposed, Root, and TWRP and coming up with a process for the future to apply each OTA going forward without dealing with the mess I'm dealing with now. Any and all help is appreciated . I'm very strong and comfortable with using fastboot commands and flashing and just need someone to help me wrap my head around the process of doing this and step by step instructions of achieving my goal. So currently I have downloaded the new OTA_PERFUME_WL_M60_SENSE80GP_VZW_NA_Gen_Unlock_1.80.617.1_R-1.53.617.5_release_480240aw6u8xea6328m583.zip file. I have the latest TWRP installed on my phone, I have the latest Systemless Root zip (BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-forceencrypt.zip), as well as the latest Systemless Xposed zip (Xposed-v85.6-sdk23-systemless.zip). I have also downloaded the TWRP clean system Backup 1.53.617.5_twrp.zip. My phone is a T-Mobile HTC 10 that I've converted into a US Unlocked model by S-Offing it, changing the CID to the super CID (11111111), and installed the 1.53.617.5 RUU. I tried doing different steps on different guides here and now my phone is all sorts of messed up. Root isn't working 100% (es file explorer fails when trying to toggle on root explorer, but fx explorer works fine), and Xposed is broken (modules don't work, Xposed app saying no framework found even though I've flashed it). Can someone help me with what I should do to be able to install the OTA, root, have Xposed, and keep TWRP so that way in the future, I can apply and OTA and keep the rest?
Thanks!

I am also just starting this procedure... Just bought my 10 today, and I am starting slowly.. All I know is that if you dont change anything in /system directory and have stock recovery, OTAs perform fine.
So my plan is unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, root, flash ElementalX, install xposed and after that flash stock firmware. Both SuperSU AND Xposed should be systemless. I know that AdAway can also be systemless, but I have to figure out everything beucase I just charged and turn on the phone
Download Xposed for Material Design... I had the same issue with the "framework not found" error.

Yeah I've downloaded the latest. Now I have an Xposed is installed but not active error :-/
The last version (85.6) doesn't work that well. It's better to install version 85.5 which works fine.

Root issue running nougat (NRD90R)

Let's make this quick. Received nougat update, decided to root device, nougat version is nrd90r, twrp recovery version is 3.0.2-2, superSU tells me that I properly have root, root apps ask for root, the root apps never end up working and now I just want lollipop back. Tried cm 13 nightly but the zip file errors every time and I've downloaded it many times. Can someone give me some help. All I need is a rooted phone that works with Xposed. Thanks in advance for the help

right now xposed isn't compatible with nougat anyway.
to got back to M or L follow section 11 of this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206930
after that you can install twrp, supersu and xposed again.
I kNow nougat doesn't have Xposed yet and I was content with waiting it out but root doesn't even work. And I have some Google app that need to be removed lol. Thanks for the help I'll get back to you on the process!

It isn't that root isn't working, is that the apps your using need an update on how they call su. Su has changed with Android n and some things need updates to support it

Order of operations (unlock, kernel, twrp, root, suhide)?

VZW Pixel on the way. I have ADB & fastboot ready through Android Studio SDK. dePixel8 downloaded. Just want to check the best order of operations here (spans multiple things):
1. Run dePixel8 to unlock bootloader
2. OTA update to 7.1.1
3. Boot to TWRP, install recovery
4. Boot-to-root
5. Flash ElementalX kernel, install kernel manager (root ver.)
5.5. Full unroot SuperSU?
6. Delete fstab.marlin in TWRP
7. Flash SuperSU 2.79 stable, systemless
8. Patch libandroid files, flash suhide, add apps to blacklist
Upon this, I should have my Pixel XL running Android 7.1.1, TWRP recovery, ElementalX kernel, Root, with SafetyNet fooled and Android Pay working... right? Should I do anything in a different order/way?
If I stop after step 5.5 I won't have root, but will have AP working I assume? Is 5.5 necessary if I do the remaining steps?

3 Make sure it is TWRP RC1
4 No, boot to root is dead after 7.1. Use 2.79 SR3 for all of this. And skip 4 anyway, in unneeded.
5.5 Here is where you flash 2.79 SR3. To be clear, you install it via TWRP.
6 Unneeded with the 2.79 SR3
And I doubt suhide will hide root, my understanding is that it currently does not. But I don follow it very closely.1
My understanding was that suhide works with the libandroid patches, but only with 2.79 stable, and not RC1+
Also, question... if flashing ElementalX isn't it recommended to have root before flashing, or does it not really matter?

Make sure before you power on you take the SIM card out. Then during the setup SKIP connecting to Wi-Fi. Then once you're through the setup unlock with dePixel8.
Take OTA update
Fastboot boot twrp RC 1 IMG
Install Twrp RC 1 zip from within twrp
Boot phone up then reboot to recovery
Flash SU 2.79 SR 3
Flash kernel if you want
Reboot
Don't use any other versions of twrp or SU. Also make sure your platform tools are completely up to date. Google also just released a separate download of them so grab those and you know for sure you're up to date

I don't believe SUHide works even with the 2 libandroid replacements. That's what I have. I think I'll have better luck with RootSwitch. I'm working to come up with something similar to RootSwitch.

There's a report in @Fenny's thread, here, about the files working on NMF26V stock for suhide.

I know, I've been following that and one off of that. I use fenny's instructions. However, those conversations gave me some ideas to attack this.
