G5 running 32Bit Android?

Hey Guys,
i have one question:
The Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 is a 64Bit CPU, but tools (specifically Xposed) says the system is ARM not ARM64 and the app AIDA64 says the command set is "64-bit ARMv8-A (32-bit Mode)".
So is the G5 running a 32Bit Android?
And could this be the reason why Xposed don't work?
(Only tested the arm zip file, not the arm64, rooted wit Magisk)

The g5 runs 32bit android
Xposed works fine - I used the Unofficial build from
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
However since I tested this a while ago the official nougat xposed has been released - according to one post Iv seen AICP rom thread that also works fine
Make sure you choose the correct sdk
Android 7.0 is sdk 24
Android 7.1 is sdk 25

First of all: thank you for your answer.
I only tested the official Xposed and I took the correct sdk, but I got a bootloop on my Stock rom, so I don't know why it fails, probably because of Magisk?

Xposed doesn't always work with stock roms - you may need a custom rom - I only tested on lineageos

64-Bit Pie?

So I'll start this off by saying I haven't used the official version of Pie, due to having an unlocked bootloader, and can't find a download so I can install manually. But here's my question:
I know the G6 Play supports 64-Bit, so are any of the Pie ROMs available on this phone 64-Bit? I'm currently using the Descendant GSI, and its 32. I'm wondering if anyone can point me in the direction of a 64-Bit version of Pie, if one even exists.

There is no 64bit rom available unfortunately. It would require someone building a rom specifically for our device compared to a gsi image. One can exist if someone decides to build a rom that is able to use the 64bit architecture but that alone would be a hassle not including already building one for the device in general. before this device got it's own forum this question was asked and answered way better than I can answer it lol

there's no relations between having an unlocked bootloader and not updating to pie, just as a note. as long as your phone is on stock stat, with no modifications, just go and upgrade.

Xiaomi Mi 9 SE Dualboot

Hey.
I was wondering about dualboot on my Xiaomi Mi 9 SE.
I'd like to try Kali Linux with pure Android.
I have a few questions:
Android is Linux based operating system, can I use terminal to install, e.g. Python?
Does pure Android contains pre-installed system apps, e.g. Google Play?
I am not laic, but I don't want to do something bad.
I guess I have to have:
Two operating system partitions (two ROMS?)
Partition for bootloader to load both os's partitions
Can anyone give me some link to tutorial or something like this?

Stock Android 10, I want to flash HavocOS 3.6 GSI with Android 10

Hello there, I have a fully-compatible treble Motorola One Action (not rooted, no twrp, bootloader was not unlocked[yet])
I was wondering, can I flash a GSI ROM with Android 10, having already Android 10?
Looked on Android Devs site, no answer for this question.
I have to mention that my device has AB partitions.
Please help me!

Yes. Project Treble is independent from the android version as long as your device comes with minimum Android 8 out of the box (cause with Android 8 Project Treble was introduced).
Of course your current Stock will be replaced. And you need a unlocked bootloader to boot a GSI (which probably will lead to a wipe of your data so backup it first).

Adding to the post by the other user, it's VERY recommended to:
Install Twrp (whatever is latest)
Use Twrp to flash "permissiver v4 or v5" (Google it )

In stock ROM, install the Treble Info app (Link here) and check which version is right for your device (I guess you should use A-only). Maybe there is some page referring to this device here on XDA.
