Well?
Personally I'm going to wait for a bit, I've 21 modules atm, probably could live without some, but not all of them.
Still no progress or ETA on xposed for touchwiz either, so it looks like we're stuck for now [emoji30] [emoji30]
Stick with kitkat. To me lollipop brings nothing but limited functionality until xposed is properly working.
Also lollipop has battery life issues. I've downgraded all my devices to kitkat.

I'm using the recently-found TW Lollipop on my T700 and am finding that I'm not missing xposed as much as I thought I would. Still rooted though (mostly for Adaway, Greenify and LMT).
Which modules are you using?
I also stay to kitkat just for xposed.. Even nova can't be shown in landscape tablet mode without xposed / app settings.. So in tablet xposed is actually a must..
Also lollipop is not have battery problem, it is more smooth so there is a dilemma here.. In galaxy s5 lollipop (custom rom) is better than kitkat.
Samsung is doing everything it can to make people not buy products again.. I can understand the knox thing, but can't understand why it is the only company that here products doesn't support xposed. I am sure that if she wanted, it could make its code compatible. Next time i won't buy Samsung, and i am big Samsung fan.. Perhaps if more people do the same, Samsung will get the message...

I completely agree and to attempt to play that one app game of mine that I would love (that literally stopped working)... how can one downgrade back to kitkat? I read somewhere that you can't do that, but you did and I'd like to be pointed in the right direction so I can get kitkat back on my tablet (and actually enjoy it as I went straight to lollipop the minute I pulled it out the box.)

Hi all. Xposed doesn't seem to be functional on lollipop.
What are you guys using to give xposed like commands ??
Is there any alternative?? Or we have to wait for its update??

I don't know of any. But xposed does work on lollipop. My Nexus 7 2013 is running 5.0.2 & xposed works just fine. There's a super alpha 5.1 build, but not all modules are updated yet. There's also a few threads with a list of working modules on lollipop.
Same Problem. Super alpha not compatible :/.....
I've got Xposed installed on 5.0.1 running GB and G3 Tweaksbox. I also have Amplify, YouTube ad-away, Greenify, and AC Display all running.
I am running 5.1.1 with xposed for 5.1 GOTO the thread they have a whole list of working modules, I have Greenify,Amplify,Gravity box alpha5.1,APM+,YouTube add a way all working, and all the HTC 4all blinkfeed,camera,gallery,music..ect

albeit xposed for 5.1.1 is up and running in the meant time it's beside the fact that is "per se" a huge hack, not really close to how it worked under KK. that's not a complaint, just stating a know fact. therefore i'm currently staying away from it, at least as long as "app settings" per app dpi does not work. what i did i tried to find solutions and/or roms to replace the main modules i was using before:
a) greenify + xposed experimental stuff: solution greenify paid version and lollipop OS improvements together produced the same battery experience for me like the one i had in KK which was 1-2% usage over a 8-10 hours period of idle time ( this together with (b)
b) amplify: read a and make it greenify +xposed features + amplify
c) app settings: no replacement found ( per app dpi ) dpi change system wide has never been difficult, currently i use 85% of default, depending on the device of which i'm using 7, the number differs, that's why i took percent.
d) silent mode / true silent mode: i made a tasker setup to deal with the matter and it works as well as before, but you need a cm-based rom
e) xBlast / GravityBox, depending: more or less all the features i was using with xposed modules and cm11 under KK are now bundled into various
custom roms + themes, be it RR or CM-Theme engine. thus i'm satisfied with what i got and don't desperately need xBlast or GravityBox ATM.
So I bought this device in order to switch ROMs like I did with my OPO, and then I discovered I won't get the high quality camera if I switch ROMs.
Problem is I get bored without flashing anything...
So I thought about flashing some OOS based nougat ROM but then I'll lose Xposed.
What did you do?
Did you stay on stock mm like I did?
Would love to hear suggestion and your opinion, maybe I'm missing something

I made the switch to nougat from having xposed framework , i had all the best mods and i thought I'd regret it moving to nougat but it's honestly not that bad for a start if you still want to block YouTube ads then you can install a patched version of adfree YouTube for nougat and for the visual UI mods there's substratum which is very decent there's also adaway for adfree browsing which again still works perfect on nougat and the doze mode has been improved alot but as always the choice is yours but I'm glad i switched and besides the Dev of the xposed is working on nougat in his spare time so we will get it eventually , i hope this helps your decision ...

Thanks! this is exactly why I asked this question, didn't know there are patched versions for nougat.
You convinced me to at least give it a try.
Your favorite OOS based ROM? Stock?
There's actually an adblocked and background playback-enabled YouTube app now. You can find it here. Alternatively, you could always give dual booting a try.
Xposed will come next year, forget about xposed on sdk25 this year.
Still on stock mm
Can't live without xposed
Cheers

Sorry if this is a n00b question
If I unlock my bootloader and install a custom rom I can still use banking apps so long as its not rooted?? Or will the fact that the bootloader is unlocked stop the banking apps working?
I'm currently stuck on P2a42_S251_171107_ROW and would like to upgrade
Thanks
I'm using LineageOS 15.1 and rooted with Magisk.
All banking apps and Android pay etc work fine.

I'm in stock android
Can anyone help me to clarify my questions ( All based on custom ROM )
1. Fast charging will work on custom ROM or not ?
2. Volte & Vilte will work or not ?
3. Custom ROM will damage battery life or not ?
I can only answer your first question, because my operator doesn't offer VoLTE, but according to comments on the custom rom that I'm using (Xtended version 10) it seems to be working. Screen-on time is now over 3hrs and I have 3,5 days to go, last charge was about 3,5 days ago. So the battery lasts over a week in my situation, which is/was a little better than on the stock rom from that day, about 2 years ago.
Fast charging is working on this custom rom, yes
Ow, and OP, I have a custom rom as you can read above , my P2 is rooted, also with Magisk, and no problem at all with my banking app; it doesn't even notice me that I'm on a custom rom.

> 3. Custom ROM will damage battery life or not ?
With Lineage 15.1 and sensible apps/settings/general user behaviour, the standby time is fine. Adding in rooting/tweaking it feels like it is better than before (Android 6).
However, I am still troubleshooting what appears to be 30+% reduced screen-on time and high system process power usage with/without rooting.

Everything has its benefits and downsides.
But overall I have better sot and also much less lagg.
I'm having 15hours of sot.
Or 9-10hours with light usage.
1.Which is the fastest, smoothie,bettery saving custom rom for Mi A2 lite?
2.Which is the fastest, smoothie,well optimised(ram management aslo) custom rom for Mi A2 lite?
Please help me and thanks in advance.
I went through several custom ROMs and ended at Android 10 crDroid. Even though most custom ROM devs now switched to Android 11 (R) development, from my experience the R ROMs are still too new and too buggy for daily use. A custom ROM probably won't help you save much battery, but for RAM management, you'll see massive improvements given how terrible it is on stock.

This GCam: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-the_dise/f/dl0/
Remember to enable HAL3 in Settings - System - Camera HAL Switch. Also portrait mode (the blurry background thing) and HDR+ don't work on selfie camera, so you have to disable them before taking selfies. Everything else works well.
Thank you so much
Syberia os
fast system, but it has its own problems as in other custom firmwares. As I understand it, no custom firmware developer is able to fix some bugs due to the fact that some bugs are found on absolutely all firmware for several versions of android in a row.

I used Android 10 crDroid. More than often the bottom navigation bar became unresponsive. Real show stopper for me.
What's the situation now? I realised that the phone is no longer getting security updates which is not great. I haven't flashed custom in years, but I remember it was a bother to get banking apps working. Is it still a problem? What's the most reliable and secure custom out there?

Almost all of the custom ROM available for Mi A2 lite is very stable and bugless. Ram management was never a problem in custom ROMs and battery life provided by customs is very near to stock ROM ( keep in mind the battery is very old).
Banking apps should work fine. But it also depends upon the app itself. You can pass safety net and app requiring only safety net should work fine.

Do you need Magisk for safety net? I remember I had to do that with my old LG G4.

There isn't a "best", your experience will determine which is the best for you. I have tried POSP, arrow, crDroid 7 and all of them are very stable and up-to-date. They differ only in customizations and such. Search what do you want and see the specific features of each ROM.
Battery life and stability cannot be compared across users and different ROMs. You can choose any one of the ROMs, all of then are very good for daily usage.
