Hello ! Is there a way to install xposed framework on A7 2017 nougat ?

Using the Magisk module with the Material Design XPSD worked perfectly on my A7(2017)

Hello! I've never posted on XDA before but since I spent 6 hours yesterday trying to figure out a proper way to do just that so I might as well help.
This worked perfectly for my A720F/DS but it should also work with any A series nougat device. Notice that the MOST important part for this to work in other devices is choosing the correct xposed SDK according to your android system and CPU. Magisk is universal, no need to worry about download one specific for your device.
I'll start with a short summary in case you know a lot about the topic and then proceed to a step-by-step process.
Only the "systemless" AKA Magisk way works flawlessly, it's pretty simple when using the correct files. If you already have Magisk properly installed all you have to do is download the latest "Material Design Xposed Installer" and have active the 24 SDK module from the Magisk Manager app.
STEP 1
ROOT WITH MAGISK AND USE VERITY PATCH TO AVOID KNOX PROBLEMS
1. Put magisk v14.0 and dm-verity patch onto the sdcard in the phone.
Download the latest magisk from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Download the Verity Patch from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series-2017/help/how-to-install-magisk-v12-0-root-enable-t3611527 You might need this link later to use S Health...
2. Flash TWRP using Odin - You cand download both here https://forum.xda-developers.com/samsung-a-series-2017/development/xcc-t3591448
Important Note for Installing TWRP on A7 2017: Disable auto-reboot in Odin so that after flashing TWRP it says PASSED but instead of rebooting and Knox un-doing what you just did, you will now attempt to go to download mode again (Vol Down + Home + Power Button) but as soon as the screen goes black (meaning the phone is off) you will instead go to Recovery mode, simply pressing the Vol Up + Home + Power Button.
3. In recovery mode, allow modifications. and under wipe there should be a button to format data. You will need to do this to flash Magisk and dm verity, if not your cellphone will be stuck on a bootloop.
4. Flash Magisk, when the process is done simply go back and flash dm verity. (this order is important)
5. Boot the phone normally, it shouldn't take long but don't worry if it takes up to 5 minutes. (In my case, when only the SAMSUNG logo showed up it would always keep going to a normal boot, but when it said A7 and the other info it would be stuck on a boot loop).
6. Open Magisk Manager app and check if you can download and install modules (it needs storage permission first). It you manage to install modules properly then skip to the next step. If it says Process Error and you can't seem to install modules then make sure you give the app the proper permissions and then on the home page of the app select Install Directly (Recommended), I guess this installs Magisk again or somethins.. This seemed to finally make it work for me. A reboot is necessary.
STEP 2
INSTALL SYSTEMLESS XPOSED FRAMEWORK SDK24 MODULE FROM MAGISK ALONG WITH MATERIAL DESIGN XPOSED INSTALLER APK
1. Get the latest "Material Design Xposed Installer" from here, it shouldn't matter if you immediately install it or install it later (like I did)https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/material-design-xposed-installer-t3137758 (I'm 90% sure thats the one I used, if it doesn't work, try the one by Sr.CyanDroid)
2. In the Magisk Manager app, download and install the module XPOSED FRAMEWORK SDK24... It will tell you it installed correctly and reboot, you can double check by going into your Modules section after rebooting and seeing if it show up there... its a weird feeling but if it does show up that already means you successfully installed the xposed framework through Magisk.
3. Install (or just open if you previously installed it) the "Material Design Xposed Installer", it will either tell you it failed to detect Xposed or it will say its all perfect and you will be able to use Xposed normally. In case it says it failed, like it did to me, simply update the xposed app within itself. In my case, there was a notice at the bottom suggesting me to install the newest "Material Design Xposed Installer" and the problem was fixed immediately as I did it.
DONE
Keep in mind that by using this Magisk Method you are avoiding modifying the system partition, meaning its a lot less likely for you to brick your phone while trying different xposed files (apks are the only xposed files you need anyway). I hope this helps you and anyone else with this problem, keep in mind its 4am, and I'm really sleep so somethings MIGHT not be perfect. I also have a busy week coming up so I might not be able to respond any messages any time soon. Cheers!

Was looking exactly for this. Gonna try this in a day. Gonna post on the progress once done. Thanks!

magisk + xposed problem

Hi all,
I have installed Magisk 16.0 based on Maik93's post, and Xposed Framework SDK27 90.2-beta3 (Systemless), through Magisk modules.
When I enable the Xposed module, the phone first shows endless boot animation, and when restarting it again, it boots, but the Xposed app seems not installed (not listed in Settings->Apps and its icon is not present in chooser), although, in Magisk, it is visible in the Modules and it's checkbox is checked.
Did anybody successfully installed Xposed with A2 Lite? What can be the problem?
Thanks a lot,
Circum

Did you install the apk of xposed?

Here is the link from xda

No, sorry, I was not aware that it is a separate thing.
Now I have installed, but it says that no Xposed Framework is installed. If I try to install a framework from inside the installer (90-beta3), it -- obviously -- reports an error that /system/framework/XposedBridge.jar already exist...
Because of this, I cannot enable any module from Xposed Installer.
Any tips what do I do wrong?

I want to use Xposed too but we will have to wait for TWRP I guess.

Not sure what happened to you, did you tried ti reboot your phone? Mine is working just fine

I was able to install it somehow,but stuck after each reboot in process. Now some apps are diying like call enhancement and some test app. So its quite dirty. I have Magist 16.0 installed.
Lol,I cant connect to internet with xposed to download any module. Useless

Not all are working apparently, but if it is bootloop, you so try to let it boot again, press power and volume down as the same time while it bootloop, the second boot always work for me

There is TWRP for Mi A2 Lite.
Search on google.
NOTICE: For now there isn't official TWRP. There'w unofficiak fork which can you install using fastboot. :good:

Not sure what happened, AFAIK I have rebooted the phone at least once, but after rebooting again, it said that the framework is installed, but has some problem with it and not functioning (yellow background, sorry, I forgot to take a screenshot), and rebooting once again solved the problem, I can confirm that Xposed works.
But as others mentioned, installing Magisk itself makes problems with the boot. Booting always stucks, I always needed (even before installing Xposed) to long-press power after several minutes and the second try usually boots up.
Now having Magisk and Xposed (and GravityBox) installed usally need to restart booting twice (i.e., the 3rd boot works).
Any suggestions how to debug / get logs about this problem?

Xposed's Gravity box module works on Mi A2 lite?

Yes, GravityBox is working, although as I mentioned, there are issues with boot - I have to reboot several times until it succeeds...

performace drops significantly when i install the xposed module for magisk. i hope they fix it.

So far everything works fine on my end, I'm not noticing any performance drops in my day to day use. Then again I haven't used it much without Magisk + exposed but from what i'm seeing it's working well, no noticeable lag or stuttering.
I have gravity box, Amplify and Greenify modules running.

I used this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-device-t3825626
But before the update. Since that I have removed Magisk to enable the OTA update, and did not put it back yet -- although, there are many small areas I feel the lack of root...

I can assure you @BubuXP's guide is good. Used his rooting guide, followed the steps for updates and its good to go. I rooted my phone when Im on August update. Now Im in September update

Global Stable 11.0.3.0 Android 10

Global Update is there.

For those who installed it already, give us some feedback.. and one question, should factory rested be done before or after installing update? What is better, because i never did reset before, just apply update, but now would like to do reset also..

Works fine without reset. Smartphone was very hot during update. After installation I made a reboot. All Apps are working and Dark Mode is now available for most Apps.

This update broke my GooglePay, no longer passing ctsProfile in safetynet.

Seems to work fine. Before this update I was getting more and more bugs, but they seem to be gone now. Rebooting after the update took a long time, however. I was stuck on the Mix logo for 5-10 minutes.
There are some visual tweaks here and there, but that's all I can notice.

Themes available, region uk!

Latest update has caused my home launcher to crash. Am only able to use it cause of 3rd party launcher.

Does Magisk patched boot work with this? I was stuck a boot screen for over 10 mins before I had to reflash stock boot.img.
*update*
I had an out of date version of exposed installed that caused boot loop.

I can't install work email, and because my phone is CN region, of course, Google Pay not working. Not sure if boot options for the kernel changed, going to look and see if I need to update my flashable patcher zip.

Not with the latest stable version. Take a look here so solve your problem: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/issues/2492#issuecomment-593149828

Any updates on anyone getting magisk to work on this? Can I use magisk patch with just the boot.img extracted from the OTA update .zip file?
I have the international not a china model.

Anybody found a solution for viper4android? I tried rootless 2.7 but driver will not install.

Magisk works.
But my ctsProfile fails on the safetynet.
Rendering GooglePay and PokemonGo unusable, which wasn't an issue for me before.
Also am international model.
After this update,
I was struggling to boot TWRP at first,
But my issue stemmed from trying to use adb / fastboot commands to boot into TWRP recovery, which only took me to stock recovery.
I got my Magisk back by doing a "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img"
And then manually used the volume up + power button to boot TWRP (I used the unofficial mauronofrio)
And from there just install the Magisk zip.

Just went through this process myself and came back here now to report on it.
This was my process for anyone also looking for guidance.
This will work for the new android 10 updated. I came from MIUI10 (10.0.3.2.0) using system update to go to MIUI11 and android 10 (11.0.3.0) via OTA update, which reverted to stock recovery and obviously lost root as well.
1. Saved most recent twrp 3.3.1-7-recovery.img for perseus by mauronofrio found in these XDA threads, magisk 20.3.zip found on magisk site and repository, and just to be sure disable forced encryption-treble.zip (just search for it) to my phone AND adb directory on Windows 10 computer.
ENSURE USB IS PLUGGED INTO 2.0 or 2.0 COMPATABILE HUB (Flashing recovery failed when connected to a USB3.0 port) and ADB/FASTBOOT is installed on your computer.
2. Booted into fastboot. (Power + Volume down)
3. Ran cmd.exe and entered "cd C:/(wherever you installed/platform-tools" without quotes.
4. Entered "fastboot devices" to ensure fastboot is connected. It should show device_id# and fastboot next to that.
5. Flashed TWRP3.3.1-7 for MiMix3 perseus (latest unofficial TWRP) by entering "fastboot flash recovery twrp3.3.1-7-recovery.img"
6. Entered "fastboot reboot recovery" the phone will reboot now, ENSURE YOU HOLD VOL+ ASAP or you will lose TWRP with stock recovery.
7. After booting into TWRP, entered password, wiped data and cache only.
8. In TWRP go to install and choose your disable_forced_encryption-treble.zip and flash it but do not select reboot device, it is selected by default.
(NOTE: Don't know if #8 is a necessary step especially for Global devices but did it anyways and it didn't hurt anything)
9. Go to install again and choose magisk20.3.zip, this time you can select reboot device.
10. After completing android setup download magisk manager 7.5.1 from play store and verify 20.3 is installed, if it is then congrats, you're rooted.
That's it! Like the above post said ctsProfile is reading false meaning you most likely will not be able to use Pay apps like Google Pay, etc.
Other apps that use google play services for verification may not work as well like Pokemon GO, Mario Kart, Harry Potter, or other banking/security apps. (Not sure about this one yet, try MagiskHide in the manager. Spyke180 is reporting above they do not work currently.) So if you can't live without Samsung Pay, or one of these games wait until a ctsProfile:true/SafetyNet passes solution is available.
Hopefully the next magisk update or someone in the community will be able to solve these issues in a timely manner, shouldn't be much of a wait.
Hope this made sense and can help some peeps out there perhaps.

CTSProfile is failing on my device as well. I tried using the boot cmdline patcher I made and it's still failing. I am wondering if Xiaomi released this update before getting the fingerprint in the CTS approved list. I can't think of anything else. My device is a CN device, so the BL is unlocked. I don't know if flashing Magisk with CN device and Global software still results in a boot loop but may try it.
Also, Magisk is detected through some methodology. I read all the posts made in both the release and beta threads in the last 3 days and it seems broken for everyone.

MMS stopped automatically sending and receiving on Google Messages app. But somehow works flawlessly on stock texting app. Notification tells me "Can't send MMS message. Tap to allow MMS messaging on (Carrier) when mobile data is off". Tapping the notification yields nothing. Even a factory reset does nothing.

If you go into settings, and then to "SIM cards & mobile networks", is the "Always receive MMS" toggle in the on position (blue)?

Yep. Both in system settings and also in the app settings. Tried turning one on and the other off in different combinations, but still doesn't work.

I see.
If you're rooted, you could try using the systemize module to make it a system app.
I verified my Google Messages and its notifications are working for me, even with both Wi-Fi and mobile data turned off.

until we get a 64 bit kernel, it'll stay 32. i want to build a 64 kernel cause i want to bring ubuntu touch to this phone, that requires a 64 bit boot image, if we are to use erfan's (only method for android 9 devices rn)

Thanks man.
Managed to get magisk working with this rom..alongside twrp
Simply install latest magisk canary APK (284). Give it super user when it asks and restart the app
Then when clicking install...it gave me option of direct install (make sure recovery is selected). It should install successfully
I then rebooted to bootloader and to get to twrp hold volume up after selecting recovery and dont hold anything to boot back to Los..
Can't share my boot image if that helps anyone

I gave it a try. It did indeed let me patch directly. It was very unstable. Things asking for su multiple times and not remembering my choice, certain modules not installing, and I always seemed to lose root entirely after rebooting

yup... sorry, forgot to post... I assumed it was after installing modules.

Lockscreen not work for me, in all gsi roms.
Only stock works.

rom works great, feels like a new phone.
model XT1952-4.
not working unfortunately is the FM radio.
based on the error message when trying to install FM apps, it looks like the kernel driver was not included in the rom?
I can deal with the fingerprint not working, it would be really nice to get the FM driver included so I don't have to use data.
Overall the phone is so much better with this rom, Thank You!!!!

Hi, probably a stupid question, considering I'm new: what does this differ from the Lineage OS instructions for Moto G7 Play at their web site? I mean, why shouldn't I stick with their instructions?
I just want to understand what is at stake here (again, I'm new at this world of smartphone os's)
I'm really interested in replacing Android (which I like, but it's... Google ) and all carrier bloatware stuff by a free OS.
EDIT: Nevermind. I've just realized that it isn't for the G7 Play, it's for G7 only. Sorry about this (maybe useful for other newbies like me)

Thanks for all the work
Everything seems stable been using on daily driver for 2 days now. Only issue is bluetooth audio not working. I'm wondering if the Motorola face unlock app would work however current version isn't available.

I'm using this on a Moto g⁷ Play in the USA, currently it's pretty stable. As for what's at stake, you lose access to Bluetooth audio, fingerprint & faceunlock unless you have SD card formated as portable storage and manage to get magisk working. There's a fix for Bluetooth Audio with magisk or ADB but I don't remember what the command was. Also as for magisk you should be able to fix atleast faceunlock because Motorola uses an app for it.

Why not just boot into bootloader mode and fast boot stock firmware to recover your device ?

Hi,
From your experience which GSI is better for MOTO G7 Play 1952-2:
Havoc or Lineage ?

It depends on what u trying to do exactly if u a heavy Magisk user u want to stay away from lineage and use havoc since magisk plays well with it if u don’t care about magisk and just want a simple root then this rom be a good experience for other then rom WiFi portal issues this rom it’s excellent cause it’s the only one with the notch fix if that fix was easily implemented out this rom and could be used with another GSI that would of been fantastic...

I favor stability and performance over Magisk.
In my case, do your recommend Lineage as my best option to try?

The UI revamp is very satisfying to me
Overall, it feels more polished than OOS 12, with the sense of details in every feature/setting, and some new unique features

Thanks. Looks like I'm getting IN2025, so will have to do the patched boot.img myself.
Time to find my old notes somewhere

Is your Fingerprint Sensor working with A13? Mine not.
I assume same issues as we had with A12 and USNF

Edit 2:
I re MSM back to OOS11 and upgraded directly to OOS 13 F3.

Tanks you so much it worked for me.
Can we use google pay with this version rooted ?
Edit. Gpay works

Hey guys, what version of Magisk (and branch) are you using to root OOS13?
I am still on 11.0.11.11 with Magisk 23.
What is the procedure to upgrade to OOS13 from OOS11 without losing root, Magisk modules and all my data?
I tried downloading full OOS12 using Oxygen Updater app, ran Local System Upgrade, it finished normally, then installed Magisk to inactive slot (after OTA) and rebooted BUT after reboot - the system stays 11.0.11.11. And the attempt to Local System Upgdate for OOS13 fails right on start.
What am I missing?
Please help

In magisk go to settings then make sure zygisk is checked and activate denylist. In the denylist check google services is check.
Then install the module universital safetynetfix v 2.3.1 by kdrag0n
To me netflix and other apps work.
In the google play store you have many apps that can check if your safetynet is verified after it. If its verified it should work
To me vanced manager do not work when i try to install youtube vanced. It says that i tried to downgrade paquet but i did not. I uninstalled every youtube upgrade. If somebody know

Flash Universal SafetyNet module in magisk (kdrag0n) and Magisk Bootloop Protector (just in case)
Check your status after a reboot with YASNAC from Play Store
Force the Magisk DenyList, and when configuring it, develop the apps and check all the tick boxes manually (to be sure)
Uninstall Netflix and install the latest .apk from APKMirror, can't help as other app (banking too) works fine

Isn't vanced dead ?
YouTube Premium Argentina is very affordable fyi ....
