Hello, guys. I'm sharing with you the app ZIPme, it allows you to create a flashable backup ZIP of anything! Build.prop, boot animation, system fonts, accounts, messages, wallpaper, Wi-Fi, apks, apks+data, only data etc.
It's really easy, I added some screenshots to you.
Tested in:
Xperia U | Xperia P
Note: if you test tell me to add in list
Hope you like!
Words of developer (JRummy Apps):
ZIPme is in beta. This means there will be bugs and some hiccups.
ZIPme is a powerful tool to create update ZIP packages to install in recovery. Whether you are a ROM developer or just getting into "root" and "ROMs" ZIPme can simplify your life.
Who should use ZIPme?
If you install custom ROMs on your rooted Android device then ZIPme can be a powerful tool. ZIPme requires root access.
What does ZIPme do?
ZIPme creates ZIP packages to install in recovery mode. When you install a new ROM your system is wiped and many times you clear your data. ZIPme can create a package of your apps, data and files you want to install right after a ROM or as a ROM addon. ZIPme programs and signs the update ZIP package so your recovery can install it.

great ... nice apps.. i test note2 .. simple and fast..
Apps+Data backup and reflash on new ROM didnt quite work for me...the data didn't restore successfully.
Looks good, will give it a try.
Obviously a promising app, downloading and will post my findings.

I see many people here who dont really are sure how to root there phone and install xposed framework. Yes it feels bad when you see people talking about ti and you dont know what they are talking about. Had this feeling during my classes in schools though. So I thought of creating this thread for their help.
This guide will be in three stages. (I hope you can bear with me for that long)
Stage 1: Rooting your phone
Stage 2: Installing Xposed (WSM)
Stage 3: Useful Xposed Modules
But first thing first. I need to put things off my chest. Well, if something goes wrong with your device, Please Please dont sue me. I will not be held responsible for anything you do to your device. In war there are casualities. And I will not be responsible for them. If you are brave heart, or can see your phone exploe without tossing a tear in your eye, then only read below. You still have time to leave this thread. You will be the one responsible for what happens next. Enough of scaring you lets read on.
ROOTING
First step to do is root your Mi3. Every fight begans with first step. Or may be first attack I should say.
Advantages of Rooting :-
Well, rooting an Android phone simply means to gain administrative privilages on the system (that sounds exciting). When you buy a new phone, you are just a guest user on the phone. You can use the phone, just as a guest would use Windows, but you will not be able to make any changes to the system files.
However, after you have a root access over your phone, you could browse your root folder and make any changes to the system files on your phone. And that means the ability to make all kinds of changes and install more powerful apps that you cant use on a non-rooted phone.
Uninstall Bloatwares (Yeah those apps that you want remove but you cant find an uninstall button for them)
Modify system files (for good use offcourse)
Use special apps designed to work on rooted phones and make full use of your phone
Does rooting void warranty ?
Yes and No. You can root your Mi3 using two methods. One is to root the stable ROM. That will void your warranty. Other method is to install Developer ROM. That will not void your warranty.
How to ROOT :-
Method 1 ( Install Developer Version of ROM ) :- This is the safest method to gain ROOT access on your phone. You have to install developer version of MiUi ROM on phone. But it has few problems :
a) There is no developer version ROM for Indian Mi3. So you have to flash Chinese version. It means there will be no GApps (PlayStore etc). Also, some of the apps will be in Chinese. Also, developer version of ROM is little unstable and buggy.
But it has its advantages also :
a) Your warranty does not get void
b) You get ROM updates every week.
So those who want to go this way may follow these instructions to install Develop Version ROM on their Mi3
1) Download the latest Developer Rom (TD) from Download Developer ROM (It will be in zip format)
2) Copy & paste the zip file you downloaded to "downloaded_rom" folder on your phone memory
3) Go to Settings -> About phone -> System update -> Press Menu Button -> select update package -> Select the zip file copied to phone.
4) Install it and reboot your phone when asked to
5) Now you are on Dev ro. Go to "Security" app. In this app go to "Permission Manager" and enable "Root Access".
6) Voila !! You are now rooted !!!
Method 2 (ROOT Stable ROM) :- This method works only for Indian version on Mi3 running on stable MiUi5 v 34. For rest you can follow this thread : This method will possibly void your warranty. So think before you proceede.
1) Download the zip file from "http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2979259&d=1413879720"
2) Copy & paste the zip file you downloaded to "downloaded_rom" folder on your phone memory
2) Go to Settings -> About phone -> System update -> Press Menu Button -> select update package -> Select the zip file copied to phone.
3) Install it and reboot your phone when asked to
4) Go to "Security" app. In this app go to "Permission Manager" and enable "Root Access".
5) Voila !! You are now rooted !!!
XPOSED Framework
After you root your phone you open a world of possiblities on your phone. You can remove pre-installed apps from your phone using root app remover apps in play store. Just search for "Root" in play store and you will se many apps that are really really cool. Some of them are :
1) Titanium Backup : Backups your whole phone inculding apps and there data
2) Greenify : Puts unused apps in hibernation mode so that they dont start automatically.
3) AdAway : This app cannot be downloaded from Play Store. Search for it on google and install it and say goodbye to ads in your apps.
4) Xposed Framework : This is the big one we are talking about.
Does Xposed work on MiUi ROM ?
MiUi have a thing called dexspy that kind of uses the same code as Xposed framework. So they might conflict with each other and your phone may not boot again. But in latest versions on MiUi they have deactivated dexspy, so Xposed will install fine. Still, I am not reponsible if your phone does not boot again or explode or anything.
So the other way round is to install WSM Tool. It is Xposed framework for Miui. Works exactly like Xposed framework. No harm in using it instead of Xposed. So why not go for it.
Install WSM Tools :-
1) Download WSM Tools from WSM Tool Download
2) Copy the file to internal memory of your phone
3) Install it.
4) Open WSM Tools from apps list.
5) Go To Settings - Manage WSM.
6) Press The Install / Update Button
7) After Installation, Reboot
8) Update WSM Tool from Download section.
9) Voila !! Now you have Xposed Framework running on uor phone.
Now go to "Online" Tab inside WSM tool to see a list of modules that are available for you to download. Well, WSM tools have its on list of modules (and thats pretty short). If you want to install modules compatible with Xposed then you have to one more thing:
Diffrence between WSM & Xposed Modules :-
a) Click "Repository" button inside "Online" tab. Put a check on "Xposed". And now you can see all the modules that you can install. Remember those modules that are compatible with MiUi WSM Tools have a little M just below their names. So you can know they are definetly compatible.
b) Xposed modules might not be compatible with MiUi. So you phone might not start after installing them. So be carefull. I'll list some good ones that are compatible though so that you can try them.
c) WSM Modules are compatible with MiUi. So you can try them out. But due to recent changs in MiUi ROM some functions of these modules are not working anyomre. We will look into them in detail.
USEFULL XPOSED & WSM MODULES
This brings us to the last part of the guide. Here I list some very useful modules that works with MiUi. I will keep updating this list frequently as soon as I try more modules.
1) Mi-Tools : This is the first module that you will want to install. It is a WSM module so its relatively safe. What it does ? Well it has loads of options. Some of them are :
a) Modify Power Menu (Advanced Reboot options, Screenshot option in power menu)
b) Modify diffrent parts of your status bar. (Sadly, you cant center your clock with this module now). Add date to statusbar, hide AM/PM etc etc
c) Modify diffrent properties of MiUi default launcher
d) Disable safe volume warning (yeah that annoyed me a lot)
e) Remap hardware capacitive buttons (Menu, Home, Back)
2) Greenify: This module is awesome. It works with Greenify Donation App and lets you put system apps into hibernation mode. That means, less RAM usage, more battery life.
3) XHaloFloatingWindow : Who does not love floating windows. Note 3 users flaunt it. Now you can too. Install this module and you can use all of your apps in windows mode. You can minimise windows, maximise windows, snap windows etc etc. Options are endless.
4) Flat Style Colored Bars : I love it when my status bar changes its color according to opened app. This module helps in achieving it. There is one more module just like this called "Tinted Status Bar" but it does not work with material design apps. But this one works. So now your status bar will have the same color just like the color of action bar of your app. Beautiful !!!
5) App Settings : This one is a must use module. It lets to modify the following properties on per apps basis
a) Rotation (yes now you can auto rotate those apps that dont rotate normally, like wechat, Phone app of Miui, etc)
b) Change DPI of apps. So now you can change DPI of any app to make it look small or large resolution wise
c) Change language of any app to your local language
d) Change font size of apps, keep screen ON while running certain apps etc etc etc
Try it for sure. It works
6) Anuer :- This module is listed under Xposed modules but its actually made for MiUi. It lets you change the position of clock, signal cluster, notifications on your status bar. YES !!! Finally !!! Raise your hands for Center Clock !!!!
I will keep updating this list as and when I find more useful plugins
THATS IT !!!
I hope you find my guide useful. If not, than sorry for wasting your time. I really wanted it to be easy to understand. There might be some spelling mistakes here and there. Report them and I will correct them. Also if you find any mistake in my Guidem then please do let me know. Also help me find some more modules that works with MiUi and I will update them here.
Thanks a lot. And enjoy your brand new Rooted and Xposed Mi3 !!!

Can I use this module in miui v6 4.11.28 ?development build?
thx friend for this tutorial.
I'm using xposed framework on latest miui v6 dev rom, works fine, no error or random reboot,
this is not my work, only a discussion thread.
root (flash via cwm):

initial opinion:
- rom is very smooth
- you can select english language upon install; ui will be mostly english
- i installed a gapps minimal x package from here; play store starts, but won't connect/login to the account (that may be a temporary issue)
- i couldn't get any apk's to install, this may be down to some security settings i could't figure out yet (installation from unknown sources is permitted)
- live icons look rather nice
- location updated very quickly
- accented unicode characters like á, ű, ú, í (etc) are replaced with chinese characters in the weather app
- in messages, unicode characters are weirdly spaced, so don't expect full unicode support
bring on your experience!
do we get ota updates?
What is the version, also please share is everytging works on the app side
All ok.. Just no root.. Even flash supersu also cannot
Working.. Huu.. Hard work to do..
For root there is a trick.. need to boot into recovery after install rom and flash supersu.zip after that
Install apk, just go to setting>>apps management>>allow unknown source
Xposed installer not work
Minus in THIS ROM is cannot install xposed framework
EVEN with WSM TOOLS
or XPOSED INSTALLER
anyone can install xposed???
thanks

Hello! I recently updated to stock 5.1.1. I have root access and have set SELinux to permissive as well. Problem is I cannot delete system apps or convert them to user apps using ROM Toolbox or any other method. I can freeze them though. Any idea how can i do this???? e.g. Chrome at the moment is a system app I want to delete it...how can I do this on 5.1.1
Thank you in advance
Since 5.1 came out I've been reading a lot of threads & posts of users with semi-root problems. Because you don't have a proper o real root access you won't be able to do much. My advise is "simple": Build yourself a prerooted zip with all the latest software:
23.4.A.0.546 .ftf
PRF Creator v0.9
SuperSU 2.46
XZDR 2.8.21
I don't know if the SELinux thing is the same as modifying the XZDR.prop but I did. This 2 lines are "true": dr.initd.active=true and dr.keep.byeselinux=true
I don't have any root problems, even when installing 5.1.1 from 4.4.2. Other thing I do: After installing the pre-rooted .zip, I flash a "stripped" .ftf: I select all the 3 wipes, No final verification and Reset customizations BUT excluding system. The phone starts "like new" but with fully functional root and recoveries.
If you want to keep your semi-rooted phone but want to delete system apps, use a debloating script. It is like a flashable .zip but will not install anything, just delete whatever you want.
I managed to remove movie creator with the kinguser app that comes with kingroot.give it a try

I am not responsible for any damage to your phone.
Read before downloading or posting in the thread.
Proceed with caution if you have no experience.
This is an initial project to get NoPlayService and NoGoogleServiceFramework on on hydrogenOS ROM, where Play Services is not available. If you use your phone without GAPPS.
For issues of autonomy: The framework and Google Play Services are known to consume huge resources. What's more to the basic consumption of these apps will be added various bugs that prevent standby phone.
This system should make last for long the battery, I'm still testing
Prerequisite:
1. You need a ROM that supports signature faking;
2. I have tried this procedure on H2OS only;
3. I do not know if it works on other ROM;
4. The installation does not require any modification of the /system partition;
5. Make a nandroid backup first;
6. You need Google Play Store only.microG Services Framework Proxy;
7. I recommend using Titanium backup (and make a backup of your applications before).
Downloads:
1. microG Services Core and microG Services Framework Proxy from here;
2. GooglePlayStore from here;
3. Lucky Patcher v6.1.7 here;
4. Any file explorer flashable zip (I 've used this for easier to installation apk I did not know if base ROM had this);
5. Titanium backup from here
Put everything in a folder storage
Instructions and download:
1. Download and install ROM without Gapps H2OS here follow the instructions, you can flash H2OS_MM_DBLOATR+SuperSU.zip too. (note important without Gapps);
2. Flash file explorer flashable zip;
2. Reboot and follow the wizard, jump wifi, I've done this procedure in data connection;
3. Download ad install microG Services Core and microG Services Framework Proxy;
4. Open MicroG Setting on your drawer and set (see img);
5. Reboot phone
at this point you add your account, then
6. Install GooglePlayStore (do not open this);
7. Install Lucky Patcher and open this on your drawer then put googleplaystore in system/apps
8. Reboot phone;
9. Install titanium backup and restore your app;
10. You haven't PlayService and google framework that suck your battery (see img).
Here you can find the app that do not work
however you can use third-party applications, that it is better
GAPPS LIST OF WORKING AND NOT WITH THIS PROCEDURE:
Google: basic functionality, but are not available Now cards, you 'you can personalize "Ok Google" (works as a default)
Maps: work
Youtube: work
Drive: work
Plus: do not work (to be tested)
Hangout: work
Calendario: work
Traduttore: work
Play Giochi: do not work (to be tested)
Chrome: work
Documents, papers, Presentation and PDF Google: work
Cardboard: work
Snapseed: work
Tastiera Google:work
Fotocamera: work
Gmail: work
Keep: do not work raccomanded Evernote alternative
Fit: do not work (to be tested)
For the rest I invite users to test and report your results
I read you don't need an ROM with Fake signature...
There is an xposed Module for it...
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.thermatk.android.xf.fakegapps
It would be fair to link the thread by @MaR-V-iN:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-microg-gmscore-floss-play-services-t3217616
There can everybody find the links and maybe help to install a ROM without GApps. Btw l.......r isn't necessary to install microG, there are other possibilities...!
Has sbdy tested? Because it sounds very promising one the original page

You have to install the Playstore as System-App. And once more, read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-microg-gmscore-floss-play-services-t3217616 you can find there the missing informations.

For full functionality you need signature faking.
Instructions
Preparation:
You need a 4.4+ ROM that is GAPPS-free. Either don't install them or remove them, if your ROM ships them. Please note that microG GmsCore might run on a cleaned stock ROM, but it might also brick it or cause random bugs.
You need a ROM that supports signature faking. Some custom ROMs are patched to support signature faking out of the box, including all OmniROM-based ones. Stock CyanogenMod denied the inclusion, as the possibility of third-party play services implementations is a security issue. Please ask your ROM developer if unsure. The latest version of signature spoofing has to be enabled at the bottom of the developer settings first. If your ROM does not support signature faking, but you use Xposed, you can grab a Xposed module here.
If you are a ROM developer or just do custom builds for whatever reason, you can download and include the patch from here and here.
Remove UnifiedNlp. In case you installed it before. You can keep your backend modules installed, microG Services will be able to use them later and provide the same feature set (to be precise, microG Services includes UnifiedNlp).

2. Reboot and follow the wizard, jump wifi connection setup.
3. Download ad install microG Services Core and microG Services Framework Proxy (apks).
4. Open MicroG Setting on your drawer and set (see img attached).
5. Reboot phone
at this point you add your account, then
6. Install GooglePlayStore apk from apkmirror (do not open this).
7. Install Lucky Patcher and open this on your drawer then put googleplaystore in system/apps (you can directly uninstall Lucky Patcher after this so it doesnt mash up anything!).
8. Reboot phone.
9. Finished (you can check functionality now)

I always keep on flashing new ROMs for my redmi note 3. Use it for a week and then flash a new one.
Its easy and fast proccess to flash and install a ROM. Though the setting up process is longer.
But. I have to install apps then. I have more than 70 apps (apks) to install. It really takes a long time to install them individually and then set up all this apps.
I really need a technique to install the apk's directly.
Without asking :; in the background.
I have tried with es root explorer one key install feature but that also doesn't work.
It shows install/uninstall failed.
Help.!? Is there any way to install mass no of apks at once. To save time and set them up later.
Pls
Any technique or way. Does anyone know how to do this??????
Hey
I think Titanium Backup is what you are looking for ?
Drop me a msg if you don't know how to use it.

Try Titanium Backup Pro.
I also flash ROMs frequently. The very first thing before flashing I do is to create backup of all my user apps. Then I Clean flash new ROM and I only download one app from play store i.e. Titanium backup. It can restore all the user as well as system apps (not recommended).
You can use it batch actions to restore all the user apps in One Go and If you will purchase the Pro feature It will restore all the applications silently in background. Without pro feature it will prompt you to install individual apk
xposed
There is an xposed module for that, but i forget the name. Maybe it was installeropt
use titanuim and create update.zip in titanium battch actions with all u r apps and flash that zips .....boom done
everybody who recommeds using titanium backup is correct. go grab the app.
you can try cm13, or use update zip option add all apk's in zip flash via twrp,
