Magisk 12.0 + Purenexus ROM

I flashed the purenexus rom with elemental X kernel and a modified version of magisk 11.6 that was made for roms on the pixel. I was wondering if there was an update to this so I can upgrade to 12.0

I flashed v12 which I downloaded from this post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/how-to/magisk-pixel-t3573845/post72045390#post72045390
Everything's working just fine (May PN + Elemental 1.11).

yeah me too. works great, very good combo

Here's the direct link to Magisk-v12.0-Pixel.zip: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1xZ4VKT4JKZUFhVUlk0enhBVFk/view

Has anyone been able to install this successfully? 11.6 works great, 12.0 after multiple attempts results in no root.

Try going to apk mirror and installing the latest magisk manager. Also make sure NOT to enable BusyBox in it.

I had the latest (4.3.3) and still no dice. Magisk-12.0-Pixel doesn't work on my Pixel.
11.6 + Magisk Manager 4.3.3 works beautifully.

I didn't quote you because your issue sounds like you need to wipe out the 11.6 folders and and reinstall 12. It's a different issue. I don't have a link but c_goodwin details how to do it in the RR thread.

do you have to run purenexus or can it run on stock?

Fair enough; that was it. I ran the uninstaller as part of my May OTA/April BL flash and it updated to 12.0 successfully and am rooted. Thanks!

I'm running the May update of PureNexus with Magisk 12.0. Have root via MagisSU with root hide and busy box enabled and all is working well. Even pass safety net check.

I cant get 12.0 to work on my Pixel XL but i have 11.6+4.33 manager installed and works great. i tried many times to get 12.0 to work i even did a full restore to factory and then flased my Custom ROM (Pure Nexus) and then did the full install of 12.0 following the directions and still says no root limited access. but gone back to 11.6+4.33 no problems at all
how did you do the install of 12.0 and the 4.33 manager if you could give the steps please.

xposed now working on tab s3

A modified xposed installer and framework for nougat is now available thanks to the Purify os team and rovo
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
Follow the link above.
1. Make backups, twrp/titanium
2. Install the modified xposed installer first, must be done first!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=13191#downloads
Use the top one on the list it may get updated
3. Next download the modified xposed framework from Purify here
http://fastkit.org/xposed/
Follow the links.... SDK24 for nougat 7.0..... Then download the xposed version 87 model... Flash from twrp
Again make sure you fully back up, it all went fine for me, but sometimes these things don't go right.
Plenty of posts in the linked forum but a bit of a jumble as usual, all with varied results, but the above will work for us.
Not sure how many modules are usable yet, I have one working so I know it does work.

Which are you using, and what would you like to use?

Status bar sleep.. Working
Status bar download progress.... Working (mostly)
Status bar cpu temp.. Not working
Status bar cpu frequency.. Not working
Any of the status bar theming such as wanams xtouchwiz would be good
Also xinternalsd was useful but not working

Can you change aspect ratio yet?

Not something I would normally do, is there a particular module you use for that?

It's been such a long time since I came across this, being able to adjust screen ratio and dpi on a per app basis. No real reason to now but with the 4:3 ratio on this tab, it'll be nice.
Also, been a while since I've used xbosed

does not work for me.. i get a recovery-boot loop and it does not start the system

I have been using it without problem for a while, but the versions used are crucial to success, I couldn't get the magisk systemless to work. Try going back to the beginning and make sure each download is correct, the method in the first post will work.

Get it work with super su but installed OBBonSD does not work (with GTA, KotoR,...). Do you have any idea?
EDIT: Found a solution with http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.xinternalsd

I have followed the directions exactly and I tried twice to install xposed on my t825 rooted with magisk 14. No luck unfortunately. Has anybody been successful in installing it ??
If yes, could he share the methodology ?

had the same problem.. remove magisk and install superSU.. xposed do not work with magisk -.-' on this tablet..

Question, how do I remove xposed again?
Can I do it with the installer app, or do I need a special skript? Never used Xposed on Samsung before and I know everything works differently.

Hello,
Your experience : Do you have a "" Tab S3 SM-T825, Nougat 7.0, Root SuperSU "" on which you have installed Xposed.
1- Does Xposed work normally with different modules?
(No Bootloop or tablet block?)
2 - Which version xposed * .zip ?
3 - Which Version XposedInstaller _ *. Apk ?
Thank you
Cordially

Fairly old thread this, I have a T820, however I've made roms for both variants, the t825 thread is here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/rom-sm-t825-tweaked-t3769742
the earlier versions are nougat the latest 3.0 on are oreo both work fine, you'll find instructions in the thread, if changing to oreo you need to flash the oreo bootloader, through odin, if returning to nougat you need to flash the older nougat bootloader as they're not cross compatible.
Xposed works fine on both, xposed installer included after booting, start the xposed installer app and select install it picks the correct version.
Root is by magisk.

Hello Rorymc
Thanks for the answer and for the link SM-T825 TWEAKED, but I'm already Root with SuperSU + Dm-Verity with Rom ARA2 Nougat 7.0 and I just have to flash Xposed with TWRP.
So, I think I have to take Xposed.zip and Xposedinstaller APK from rovo89 in pure version without add and unmodified ?
I hope I'm not mistaken .....

Yes that's correct, just make sure you get the correct versions, if anything goes wrong just restore your backup.

[Q]xposed for nougat?

Hi z5 premium users, there is a guide for installing xposed on nougat 7.1 .1
There are some z5 users who used this method and it's working for them.
Any one tested this on z5 premium ?
Working or not?

I Have Z5p E6853 and Android N 7.1.1 32.4.A.0.160 stock rooted kernel and Xposed(SDK25 ARM64 ) does work on my device and a lot of modules work great and even Amplify works great, but only after i moved it to system partition and changed permissions to 777, not all modules work though (Greenify doesn't work) - but i moved it to system/priv-app folder and i use it as "Root + Privileged (Rom-integrated)" working mode .
So i Suggest to try your best with Xposed too!

I always use some modules like : fsbi, lolistat, hide navbar, xposed edge, battery notification mode, are these working on nougat too? Could you test them if it's possible for you? However I'm on e6833.
And is there any unistall patch for nougat xposed to flash through twrp?

You are very welcome!
As for "Xposed edge pro", I use it all the time and it works great but you need to restart after every change to see the affect.
Here is the link to the Uninstaller(System-less and system mode): http://main.purifyos.it/xposed/
It literally saved me many times after boot-loops or sony logo freeze and etc...
All taken from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
As for other modules, i'm currently testing another rom(LineageOS) so i haven't installed Xposed there yet, but i'll keep you posted for when i install Xposed if you wish.
Hope it helps!

Hide navbar is not working too. I'm waiting for stable and fully work framework

Hi my friend,
how did you root this version of android?
My phone is the same as you but E6833,could you please help me and show me the way?
thanks in advance

Hey just a thought, I found Magisk was great in managing all of this kind of stuff, where it takes the questions out of it. Just root your phone with magisk and install the Xposed module, download and install the magisk supported Xposed app and there you have it, fully working Xposed framework, systemlessley!

v4A on magisk16.4 may update?

Has anyone been able to get a v4a module working on 16.4 and the may update? I tried installing the module by viper50 and ahirion that has worked so well in the past... Doesn't seem to be enabling for me this time around for some reason. Any ideas?
Or other mods to recommend?

V4a v2.5.05 working fine with magisk 16.4 and may update here.

Are you flashing in magisk or twrp? Which module are you using? Thanks!

I'm neither of the other posters, but flash V4A via Magisk using the module authored by Viper520, ZhuHang, Ahrion, and Zackptg5. Be certain that you select the new driver and the materialized version of the app for V4A to work properly.

This ^^ : point upwards: ! Especially the underlined part; it took me a whole lot of trial and error to figure this last part out...
In any case, I used the latest Magisk module (if you check the details of the modules, it'll show when it was last updated). If anything, supposedly you could just install straight away, but V4A gave me errors. I had to uninstall the existing V4A, reboot, install via Magisk module, and reboot before it worked. You (@Cowbell_Guy) might, at the very least, have to walk through the same steps for whatever reason...
Hope this helps...

Substratum not working!

Hey everyone
I just installed the December security patch.
Now that I have installed substratum, I can't find the installed overlays in the Overlay Manager. Tried themes like Swift dark and other themes. It still doesn't work.
Also I've updated the magisk manager to version 18.0 today.
Anyone facing the same issue with their device?
I'm using Pixel 2 XL
SOLVED: New substratum update available on play store.

Substratum is not compatible with the new Magisk 18. As far as I know, a new version is worked on right now. You either have to wait or use Magisk 17.3.

I just can't stand the white pages everywhere; it drives me both blind and crazy, so I'll stick to 17.3 for the time being.

Yeah I can confirm latest Magisk 18 breaks Substratum, so either stay on 17.3 or deal with being blinded by white backgrounds. Tbh I'm really surprised Google hasn't managed to figure out a way to actually turn all white backgrounds either grey or black, Samsung a has actually done it before them with the new OneUI lol
Shame on you Google.

This explains the difficulties I was having getting some overlays to work. Thank you

Try flashing Magisk 18 in the Magisk manager app itself instead of in twrp, I was having problems gaining root until I did that. I'm currently on ver 18 with Substratum working.

There is a new update available for substratum on the Google play. I hope this resolves the issue.
Edit: It's working fine now.

Anyways that's a moot point now, new Substratum release on Play Store fixes the problem.

Even with Substratum taken out of the equation, I was having problems getting root with Magisk 18 until I flashed within Magisk app and chose recommended install option.

I can compile a theme and they all show. When I restart and then try and change overlay state, it tells me to compile first ??!! Any idea
