hey XDA, long time no see!
I'm having a strange issue with Xposed ever since the latest system update (OOS 3.2.8). I installed the OTA knowing it would break root but that's easy to fix. I re-rooted, flashed magisk and Xposed and ended up bootlooping, thought I must have done something wrong so wiped and reinstalled everything. everything seemed fine but whenever I activated an Xposed module I would just end up bootlooping again and they all worked fine before this update
I have ruled out everything else and it's not just one specific module or the Xposed framework itself, activating any Xposed module will send me into a bootloop! After googling I can't find anyone else reporting this so just someone else that has experienced this and I am stumped as to why this is happening.
EDIT: forgot to mention i'm using systemless Xposed framework v86.6 by topjohnwu (guy who made magisk) and the material xposed app v3.0.1 by dvdandroid, thanks to those who have helped so far!
EDIT 2: GOT IT! uninstalled the framework completely and realised there was an update to v87 and now it works fine! Still can't work out why it was only bootlooping after I activated modules but whatever, it's fixed thanks to those who helped for pointing me in the right direction.
which version of Xposed u are using ?.
asking because recently there is known incompatibility with November security patch.
IIRC Xposed is patched to work with November patch. I think rovo89 has provided test zip for those who are on November patch.
The official systemless xposed v87 by rovo works fine !

hmm, strange because I thought I was on November patch before when everything was fine, I forgot to mention i'm using systemless Xposed framework v86.6 by topjohnwu (guy who made magisk) and the material xposed app v3.0.1 by dvdandroid, I'll add that to my original post. Does the official Xposed installer support systemless? I was convinced it didn't...

I couldn't find any "official systemless by rovo" only the one by topjohnwoo.
U have a link please?
Sorry I made probably a mistake, maybe misunderstood
In this post : he said
Next step (planned for the next version): Official systemless Xposed for Marshmallow.

And the next step is the v87 with new apk

I've recently noticed this trying to apply substratum themes since i updated to Android Pie. None of the overlays compiles or applies. No overlays in manager either. Most times compiling does not even give any errors. I've tried most themes that claim Android 9.0 support.
Any ideas on how to troubleshoot this issue?

What version of substratum are you using? And, what themes have you tried?

Substratum 1001.
Tried pitch black, mono/art, flux, Swift dark.
When i complete the there it creates a .Substratum folder on my storage. But when i reboot, it's gone.

Ah. Yeah version 1001 doesn't work on the P2XL. Uninstall the one you have, reboot, then use the one in the link. Also, when you build your overlays, select "build and update" then reboot, then enable them in substratum manager. Pitch Black works great. Be careful with the others especially when themeing system and system UI, they can shut your UI down. Pitch Black works on everything though :good:

Same here as well.
Android 9 rooted
Flash kernel.
Substratum v1001
Multiple themes don't work. They appear to apply but the apps are not themed.
Working for me, Pie, Magisk v17.1, Flash Kernel, using Substratum v998. Are you doing Build and Enable, then rebooting, then toggling the overlay state? I'm using Ethereal for System (Pie support) and Swift Dark for some apps.

Have you tried clearing app cache/data a couple times? As well as uninstall/reinstall?
Use 998 and dont patch the substratum app when you install the themes

1001 working correctly here, on top of it being themed. 998 worked correctly here even when themed, so substratum itself likely isn't the issue. What theme are you using?
yeah im using 1001 fine aswell but 998 worked with a restart and 1001 doesnt even need a restart anymore. Try PitchBlack
Just updated from 998 to 1001, so far everything working as expected.. lets hope it stays that way!
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.

No such issue on my P2XL. Have you tried clearing substratum app cache and data? And/or uninstall/install substratum again?

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.

Yes it has the access to the root.
May be the new magisk update is the problem.

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.

Thats how I installed mine and Substratum still broke.
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'm on December update, have latest substratum after fresh install of latest update from Google. Magisk 17.1
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

Hey,
Just wondering if any theme/customisation are working on the OOS pie?
Nothing seems to be working for me. It build and installs the overlay but I see no change.

Yes, is working. You must build and install the overlays, then restart your Phone.. Then open substratum, Manager, and select all overlays, and activate your all select overlays

Use magisk 17.3 and substratum 1010. It should work. (Ofcourse with root)
works perfectly here swift black and pitch black theme. build and enable then reboot goto manager tab and enable all thats it.
That's for the help veryone! I've never used substratum before this, it's all working now
Any other recommendations for themes that work on pie OOS?
Hey guys, has anyone gotten Gpay to work on lineage 19.1? I have done the following and have had very odd results. Firstly, I am passing safteynet and my device is registered as play certified in Google play store. I'm seeing where sometimes gpay won't open at all and when it does it says it is unable to load my payment methods.
Specs:
OS - linageOS 19.1 (latest build as of this post)
GAPPS - Mindthegapps (latest build as of this post)
Steps taken:
Installed magisk, enabled zygisk and rebooted
Installed magisk hide props module then rebooted
Installed shamiko module then rebooted
Installed universal safteynet fix (zygisk) then rebooted
Configured denylist in magisk checking GPS (all), and Gpay (all) rebooted
Changed device fingerprint with magisk hide props module to a certified one then rebooted
Additional steps taken:
I cleared data from GPS, play store and Gpay and rebooted
I tried a different device fingerprint and rebooted (clearing data like above afterwards and rebooting again)
I have done a complete fresh install of my OS and tried again from scratch.
I also tried seeing is renaming magisk would help at all, it didn't
It appears I'm getting nowhere with this. If anyone has gotten it to work and has some insight it's be greatly appreciated!
Nevermind, looks like it was an issue from having the pixelify module installed as well. After I removed it it started working just fine.

Hey deathblade!
Thanks for helping me out on the other thread.
Just wanted to check in, did you use the official build or the unofficial one with the Pixel Goodies? I'm intending/hoping to have full functionalities of Google Pay using the unofficial build, but from your post it seems that I can't have the Pixel experience if I want the ROM to work with Google Pay?

I'm using the official build. I think the unofficial has everything needed to use Gpay and have some pixel things baked in. So might be worth a look in your case

Not that I've found, however I did notice if you install the pixelify module then uninstall it, it does seem to leave some stuff behind. Like I still have the option to use Hold for me and direct my call. So it might work out where you can install it to get the things you want then remove it to get Gpay working

Nope now playing is still there. I really only used it the module to force call screening to show up. But I have pretty much everything I remember from stock plus a few phone related goodies. I never tried the unofficial build but on the official I do not have that issue

Just also wanted to clarify in the case I decide to install magisk, which module do you install exactly? All of them? Zygisk/hide props module/shamiko/universal safetynet fix?

Ok so here is the breakdown:
Zygisk is not a module, but an implementation method used by modules. Magiskhide props is used to change the device fingerprint to a valid one that registers as protected by google play. Shamiko is for hiding root from Google play services, and Gpay (and whatever other apps may need it). Universal safteynet fix is used to help pass google safteynet checks (security). Not listed is the pixelify module used to add pixel exclusive features but of course with it install it cause havoc on Gpay and other apps so once installed it should be uninstalled.
TLDR
Yes all of them

Nope, I didn't. Other than the modules to hide from banking apps as mentioned above, I installed a pixel launch module here to make it for pixel-like: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-mod-pixel-launcher.4442077/
Other than that nothing else.
It doesn't;t work in the sense that it does not pick up music, even popular ones. The settings are there though, I can see them. It just doesn't identify any songs
