On my Oneplus 5T, I'm currently running stock oxygen OS 4.7.7 (Nougat 7.1.1)
I'm preparing to update its Oxygen OS to Android 5.1.1. (Android Oreo 8.1.1)
I am running the following xposed modules
adblocker reborn
App settings
GravityBox
Youtube Adaway
Statusbar download progress
xprivacy Lua
Can anyone please tell me whether one or more of these modules are causing any trouble on OnePlus 5T running Oxygen OS 5.1.1 ?
I'm using gravitybox without any trouble.
Regarding status bar download progress, I would advise you to use the official app which doesn't even require root. It's from the same developper. There is a paid version, the dev deserves it given the time since this module exists.
I would also stop using YouTube adaway. Try YouTube vanced as a magisk module : no ads but also PiP and background play.
Otherwise I don't see why there should be problems with the other modules. If you're not sure, just make a system+Data partitions backup with TWRP and restore it if you experience any bug.
Thanks for replying, I'll surely check out different app for status bar download progress.

I'm already using YouTube vanced. My only reason to block YouTube ads is because upon clicking the YouTube links on web pages while surfing on Chrome and Firefox, the links automatically open up in original Google's YouTube app and not vanced one. This happens also when I click on youtube links in messages of whatsapp and Facebook messenger

I never faced this, but I always uninstall official YouTube app before installing vanced. I do it with titanium backup but any system apps uninstaller will work.
Flat Style Bar Indicators 5.1 work well on my phone 5t 8.1

Hey, whats everyones favorite, and go-to magisk modules or other root mods for the pixel 2 XL device? i have root and im really curious what everyone is using, and for what reason!
I use Energized for adblocking. Downside compared to adaway is you need to use a terminal app for control.
Also use(d) Active Edge mod to allow for linking flashlight to a squeeze.
Another is Vanced as a version for YouTube without the intrusive add videos.
You may want to have the original YouTube app not updated and set to not auto update and enable the build in option to detach the app from the play store by putting an empty file named enable_detach in the cache folder.
Last one is Busybox to make some modules funstional.
Also enable Systemless Hosts in magisk settings.
Hi all,
Am unable to install YouTube Vanced on my SM-975U. Apparently, if I turn off MIUI Optimization, it might install. I tried hitting "Reset to default values" in the Developer options multiple times but the toggle option for MIUI optimization has not appeared.
Help!
Matt

Found a solution: uninstall both YouTube Vanced and MicroG through the Vanced Manager app, reinstall the MicroG app FIRST and only after that should one install the YouTube Vanced apk. Solved the problem for me.
It didn't work because the Note10+ is not a Xiaomi phone.

How very confusus
OP, welcome to XDA. Enjoy
I have Mi 10t pro and I have magisk rooted version installed. If I install YouTube vanced, it runs fine.
However after some usage I find the normal version installed.
Is there anyway to make YouTube Vanced permanent installed? I am on latest stock Miui version.
Thanks for any hints.

Disable the original youtube app through adb commands - search google, there are plenty of guides how to do that and disable Automatic update on Play store.
Just take a look at New Pipe instead

I disabled YouTube app and also the automatic update on Play store and still it has been replaced.
I removed it via adb, (actually from the phone using a shell app) but the Vanced manager could not install it.
So strange...

So in the end you actually disabled the original youtube app but couldn't install vanced. Search apkmirror for these versions and install the MicroG like normal app and Vanced with SAI app from Play store:
MicroG - 0.2.13
YouTube vanced - 15.05.54.
Good luck, zaqm
since vanced stopped publishing their APK, where can I find it and how can I install it?
appreciate your help.
I wish people would try googling things before posting here.

Direct install doesn't work. I tried that already, that's why I'm asking here.
These files are the last and final yt vanced builds from before it was shut down. Follow the instructions from the attatched picture. The files are from apkmirror, which is a trusted source.
youtube vanced.apkm
youtube vanced microg.apk
Split APKs Installer (SAI) - Apps on Google Play
SAI lets you install and export split APKs

Thanks! I wasn't aware of split APK installer. That worked.
Appreciate the help!
Just noticed that you can get an issue while using SAI in which yt vanced crashes upon launch. If you are experiencing this issue, install the .apkm file using APKMirror's installer.

When I want to see the apps that are running in the background or switch between them, the app I'm currently in isn't the one that's showing up first.
This never happened to me on any other android phone or ROM.
(This phone has the stock ROM, no bootloader, no root)
It doesn't metter if I use gesture or button navigation.
I used "universal android de-bloater" (uad gui) to remove some crap, mostly Samsung and Knox stuff, but I didn't remove anything that wasn't in the recommended list, or didn't have a clear description.
Did I do something wrong? Should I try a factory reset or is this a known issue?
See video attached:
That's defualt OneUI behavior.
If you want to have the currently running app show up first you need the HomeUp GoodLock module.

If you don't live in a country that GoodLock supports you can also download FineLock from the playstore. It has all the download links for all modules
