Installed Andromeda, bought the app for non rooted phones, installed the app on windows, installed the clock-tweaks on the phone, ran everything, no errors, but no clock centered

Andro needs a PC connected upon every reboot. You can apply at will, just upon reboot you will need PC connection.
Also that's the same one I use that works fine. It's not troublesome. It works great.

Yes and no.
Yes because it became very annoying, and was one of the reasons I rooted. Also no because that's how it's designed to work. So we take what we can get.

There is a magiak module in the substratum section that basically converts the windows bat file into a shell script, so you don't need to connect to your PC everytime, just a terminal on your phone will do. But you need root to run the shell script tho, so only useful if you're rooted and want to keep using Andromeda.

Supposedly the Andromeda method of compiling overlays better/recommended by the devs, idk the specifics. I just use it since I already bought Andromeda and don't want it to go to waste lol
Edit: thread in question: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/substratum/magisk-andromeda-enabler-enable-t3728325/page6
It's even endorsed by the substratum dev, so I guess it's not completely useless lol

You don't have too. Uninstall Andromeda and substratum, then reboot. Then install substratum again, grant it root, and theme away ?

There isn't any advantage if you ask me. It's great getting rid of the umbilical cord known as Andromeda! Although, it is great for those who can't, or don't want to root ?

It’s nice being rooted and able to reboot phone without having to wait to get home ...but agree great for non root

WiFi Tether on Stock Kit Kat? Any Ideas

WiFi Tether starts and then stops. Using WiFi Tether 3.4 Experimental. It starts up without errors and then some poison pill in the stock rom shuts it down. I'd like to stay with the stock rom and since there's no hack out yet it's this or nothing

Question about Xposed Framework.

I just rooted my HTC 10 and installed Xposed and got the Youtube Adaway Module. My previous phone was a Z3 where I had used GravityBox which ran fine. Since this is my first HTC device will the GravityBox MM work for this device or is there an alternative besides GravityBox.
Thanks Again.
As I remember GravityBox is programmed to run on and with AOSP based ROMs. Now when it comes to HTC, stock ROMs aren't AOSP based. I never used it myself though and I'm a long time HTC user. If you want you can try it if course, but should perform a backup prior to doing so.

Just tried and it works, only needed GravityBox to show the AM/PM and change the battery icons. Can't say about the other features on it as I only needed these two functions. Also got Xposed working with greenify, and Youtube Adblock. Looks like I am good to go for a while!
Sounds as if. Have fun with your new 10!

Most GB features work. Lock screen features don't due to a non AOSP lock screen.
Adaway works.

Okay thanks... I just flashed v84 sdk23 arm64 and it gave me "Updater process ended with ERROR: 1 what did you do to get your xposed working? thank you
first off, I mean this the best way possible. You need to be both more clear and more complete in your posts and questions. I could (and many would) very much give you a hard time but will try to help you.
1. If I'm not mistaken, that is a TWRP error. You can do a forum or google search and you'll find many threads about it with options.
2. Post the TWRP log so we can see what happend, or take a screenshot so we can see exactly what the output text on the screen was before the error.
3. Are you using TWRP? I assume so if you're on an HTC 10.
4. I simply flashed the proper exposed module in TWRP.
Long story short way too many variables to simply answer your question. You could wipe the cache and reboot into recovery, re copy the .zip to your SD or adb push it over. and reflash

If you look at the screenshot it tells you exactly what the problem is. Did you even read it?
Tell us what it says directly before the error?
"system mounted as read only file system" - you didn't mount as read/write. You have to mount R/W for SU and anything like this you're going to flash.
Try again, this time set the system to mount as R/W and be sure to read and watch what you're doing.
People are here to help but the trade-off is you must make efforts and not solely rely on others to solve your problems.

First time rooting! I've completed the root and I've managed to figure out how to use Magisk. I've asked around Reddit and the vast majority say that using Xposed isn't really worth it. Are there any modules you'd recommend? What do you guys use on your devices?

Are you trying to install google pay while rooted? If so you need to unroot before you install Pay. You will also need to hide Pay from root using magisk hide.

Nope. However, if your just testing to see if your app works without root, I'd dirty flash your rom, then flash twrp again and let it boot up. You won't have root, but all your modules will still be there if you want to root again :good:
Thanks Badger!
Well I disabled all overlays except for Android system because I cannot undo it without root and still having issue with drawing over. Unable to hit the next button after after entering my three digit code and agreeing to the terms and conditions.
