Hey all, I'm trying to install Sense 6 Toolbox on my phone. I have everything up to date software wise. When I install the framework, I install/update, then reboot. When it comes back on, it still shows that it isn't active. What can I do to fix it?

got S-OFF?
If your device still S-ON, you need to change install method to flash via recovery.

I mean you need change the install xposed install method.
First, open Xposed Installer, goto Framework > Installation Mode > Choose Recovery(Flash zip automatically).
Go back menu proceed to install and reboot. Let see the result.

Oh,ok,gotcha. Thanks again for ur help,I appreciate it.
Lol. I read my own reply, I drunk maybe. Double repeated words. nahh, nevermind as long as you get what I mean. BTW, enjoy your max! @Wmckinnon46
S-off is not so necessary here,the most important thing is to root your system and install expose framework then activate sense 6.0 toolbox.After reboot your phone you will get the functioned exposed framework.
I got everything working perfectly, thanks for the help guys. Now I just need to flash an unsecure kernel so I can get S-Off. Last time I tried, I got stuck on the white logo screen for about an hour until I finally was able to figure out how to get back to recovery, then flashed my backup.

I have the HTC Rezound with the recently released O.T.A. ICS from Verizon. My objective is to root the phone and kill all of the B.S. bloatware that Verizon feels they must add to the phone. I have posted before to ask how to do this and everyone says root the phone and kill the apk files or alternatively Root the phone and download Rom Toolbox then kill it from there. I have gone through and followed the "[GUIDE] Super-noob guide to unlocking, rooting, and flashing Ziggys kernel" to the 'T' up until its time to load the Kernel. I do not want to change the Kernel so my qquestion is:
If i have gone through the process of rooting my phone it should be rooted at this point. However when I run Root Check Basic it tells me "Sorry this device does not have proper root access." I do not understand why. In order to get full root access am i going to have to continue with installing the Kernel.
Is there anybody who could help me. I am missing.

First, wrong section. But to help out... Do you have recovery? If you do just download the newest supersu zip file and flash it in recovery.. google search for it. Good luck. I hope you don't get flamed too much

1. Wrong section. Please post things like this in the general or q&a sections, not flaming, just telling you for future references.
2. If your device has an unlocked bootloader, flash amon ra recovery or twrp and go to the dev menu and it will say something like give Su permissions or root or whatever, just click that.
3. Profit.
4. You're welcome.
To root you should download the latest version of SuperSU zip file, and flash it with anon RA recovery.

This is a great community.
You do not need to root your phone to get rid of the bloatware, you can keep your phone stock unrooted and debloat it yourself and not have to worry about flashing anything. To disable go to menu>apps and after clicking an app you see the choice of disabling.
SuperSU not working
I don't know why i cant get this to work. I have flashed the amon recovery to my phone. Followed these steps:
1)Flash AmonRa Recovery.
2) Boot into AmonRa Recovery.
3) Scroll to and enter the Developer menu.
4) Scroll to install Su. DO NOT INSTALL THE ENG (Unguarded) one. Use the other one.
5) Confirm this, when it is finished, go ahead and reboot. You should be rooted.
Downloaded the SuperSU from google play and select install. after a few minutes it comes back and says the SU binert needs updated, I select continue. then after about a minute it says installation failed.
What am i missing? I have followed everything to e "t" I don't get it

pwned3- I have downloaded the flashable zip. Now do i flash this to the recovery in place of the amon. or is this flashed with the amon .img
Also do i use the same method as above to flash it or is there an easier way.

Flash in recovery. If you have already flashed a custom recovery(amon ra) then pull your battery, hold out for 3 seconds, insert battery, hold vol down and power at same time til bootloader boots, select recovery, select flash zip menu, select sdcard(assuming you placed flashed zip on external sdcard), select file, press power to confirm, reboot when done. Now you should be rooted.

Hello,
I have a rooted Iocean G7.
I wanted to install the framework module with the Xposed installer app. This was no success, I got a bootloop. After this I contacted Iocean, and I have flashed my phone with the computer. It works fine now, as it should.
Now my question is, how can I install the framework module without getting a bootloop or other problems?
Thank you,

You guys know that Xposed puts a framework disabler zip on your internal storage? All you have to do is boot into a custom recovery and install it.

What root method did you do that didn't require USB Debugging to be enabled?? But yea, I dunno about that. You're going to have to find out though. You'll need the SP Flash Tool to work, whether it's to install the custom recovery, or to install the entire stock firmware.

There is a 'Super User' setting in Settings which I enabled.
I tried installing PdaNet but that does require USB debugging to complete the installation.
Isn't there a standard recovery mode on these phones that I can use (combination key press) to install a rom copied onto the SD card?

That's pretty handy. But no, the stock recovery does not support that. You might be able to get out of it just from doing a factory reset in the stock recovery, but it's hard to say since Xposed makes changes to /system as well and the factory data reset does not affect the /system partition, just /data

hi good day how to root iocean g7
Hello,
I followed the below instructions from the attached link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2441441
The problem I am having is after I use the “Install Recovery" button my phone goes through the install process and prompts me that I have installed Safestrap however the State of my phone says not installed. I assume that Safestrap is not installed did I do something wrong? Thanks
I also attached some screen shots as well. Phone specs: Verizon S4 Saferooted on Build VRUEMK2, Android 4.3
HOW DO I INSTALL SAFESTRAP?
1.Requirement: Root
2.Requirement: Allow APK install from Unknown Sources
3.Download the Safestrap APK
4.Find the APK using a Filemanager tool and open it on your device, then click "Install".
5.(If updating from an existing Safestrap you might be warned that this will over-write the existing installation. Click the "Yes" equivalent to this message.)
6.Once installed, open up the Safestrap application as you would any other app.
7.Agree to the disclaimer that you won't try to sue me and hunt me down with a rifle if you manage to break your phone..
8.Then use the "Install Recovery" button. You should see the current version down in the lower left corner of the window. And the "Status:" should say "Installed" when you're done.
9.From there you can reboot and you *should* see a new splash screen during the boot up. While this is showing you can enter Safestrap Recovery using the [ menu ] button.
10.That's it for the installation! Read below for a brief overview of Safestrap Recovery v3.x

Im gonna give ya the best info i can. Im new to the safestrap stuff so bare with me hopefully someone can tell me if i am wrong.
1st:
On the stafestrap page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=45517751 make sure you are using the correct SS for your version. There is a MJ7/MK2 version and a ME7/MI1 build.
2nd
If you have ran and installed SS before you may need to uninstall it before you install the newer version. There is instructions on that in the link i provided also.
PS
Make sure if you get it working that you download the correct Kernel Modules for the baseband you are running. Very important.
Hope this helps, but like i said... I hope i can be backed up on this and if i am wrong that someone can tell me that lol

Im running out of ideas but Im gonna do whatever I can to help you get this going. I may be doing this tonight to my girlfriends phone and I want all to go smoothly :laugh:.
This may be stuff you have tried so just ignore if you have already. Just gonna make a list.
1. Redownload the APK. Maybe its a bad download and reinstall it in your phone. Uninstall your current version and then reboot phone. Then install the newly downloaded one.
2. If you can, maybe find a little older version of SS and try it.
3. Do a complete wipe of everything on the phone and start clean after the factory reset (as long as you dont mind factory resetting your phone) and then try the SS install. (make sure you can install from unknown sources again)
4.Make sure you didnt deny the SS app superuser permissions by accident
5.Buy me a beer and maybe i can come up with something else? :laugh:. Just kidding ofcourse :silly:
Ill do what i can to find a solution for ya

Root should not be lost. If it does then you can reroot. Yeah all your app / contacts / settings will be deleted. You can using Titanium Backup to back up all your apps. Gmail can back up all your contacts. Settings, unfortunately you will have to redo all these. Also, what are you using to download the SS APK?

Well this process shouldn't be this hard. What I would do at this point is Odin the MK2 no wipe.. so you keep all your data then use Saferoot again to root the phone. Then re download SafeStrap and try again.
Another thing are you opening up SuperSu so it can update your binary after rooting and before installing SafeStrap?

Never thought of that.
Never really figured basically unrooting and rerooting the phone would help, but hey, anything that will work.

I mean I actually don't think you'd even have to Odin back either but at this point might as well just start over fresh.
Then root the phone again and make sure to update the SuperSu binary then reboot and try installing SafeStrap again. Seems like a superuser deal to me. I could be wrong... Just something I'd do to troubleshoot something like this

I am a little hesitant to re-root as I had a problem rooting the first time but I got through it. And I am not familiar with the Odin process but I see it all over the forum. Eventually I know that I need to venture out and learn this if I am going to experiment with the S4 and other roms. At this point in time I don’t plan on changing ROMs do I really need Safestrap? All I am trying to do is this 4.3 Tether Unlock MOD? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2512981
As for the SuperSu updating the binary it did prompt me and I allowed it and I am pretty sure it was before trying to install SafeStrap. Thanks
So i have an HOX+ asia (rooted) today received a 2.18.707.6 Software update this will be smooth install for some users however not for my case because i have TWRP installed so every time i click install well it goes to the TWRP boot menu.

unfortunately i cant confirm with if it will work on xposed framework, however my rooted phone worked just fine with the help of twrp installation as it prompted me to re fix the permission before booting the update

UPDATE 05/28/15 This works fine without doing the xposed part on Lollipop. No speed issues. It may be totally unnecessary now but I am not going to retry it to see. It may once again become necessary to follow these instructions when we get xposed for lollipop.
There are a number of threads about these two topics, I am going to consolidate my findings here.
First off root works great on the Sprint variant, secondly so does Xposed with S-Health and private mode. You just have to be careful how you set them up. There have been a lot of posts about freezing S-health and Private mode then clearing data but from my experience that is hit or miss. There are four basic steps to getting everything working and it should be done from a factory reinstall of software. The files you will need are in the following threads/links
Chainfire Autoroot - http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/
Chainfire File Link - http://download.chainfire.eu/617/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-tbltespr-tbltespr-smn915p.zip
Xposed - http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053
Xsecure - http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-xshealth-bypass-secure-storage-t2878708
Teamwin Recovery - http://www.techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/trltespr
Root using Chainfire autoroot for Sprint it will fail just pull the battery and boot to download to install the teamwin recovery (buttons HOME, VOLUME DOWN, AND POWER) boot to recovery then install supersu. Before leaving recovery set the screen timeout off and lower the brightness to 10.
Skip past Google and Samsung setup. You can fill out the first and last name screen (only opportunity to name phone, first boot).
Download and install Xposed (not Wanam) download and install XSecure Health module install Xposed framework reboot
Activate Xsecure Health module reboot
Clear Data for Health Service and S-Health reboot
Run Private mode and set up, run S-Health and setup.
Setup your Google and Samsung accounts
If you do these steps exactly without doing anything else I can promise you will have a rooted Sprint version with Xposed, Shealth, and private mode working. When I say exactly I am serious there are a lot of things that can/will mess you up like
Signing into google or samsung on reboot after installing factory software
Starting private mode before setting up xposed
Shortcutting by doing a factory reset instead of a factory software reinstall
Restoring your data Nandroid backup (Use Titanium etc for a program by program reinstall of apps)
BTW the problem here is a little bit deeper than uninstall xposed everything works. There is a something that is changed in the software with either xposed or wanam that can permanently kill private mode until you do a factory install. At the moment I am doing Nandroids before any change I make in Xposed.
worked like a charm. Thank you very much.

Is it absolutely necessary to install the custom recovery to achieve root? I only ask because I prefer to leave the stock recovery

Sorry it is because the SU has to be installed outside of the system. There may be a way to then use TWRP or CWM to reinstall the stock recovery but I have not researched that.
Thanks blackinjun for this, I just got a Sprint variant of the Note Edge. I believe that I'm on NK1, it's been a while since I rooted a device, last one was about 2 years ago on my Galaxy S4. Will try it this weekend.

@metal i now think it may be better to keep the custom recovery. Ive found that when su says it needs an update it asks to reboot ro twrp or cwm to update. I have twrm and it worked flawlessly.

I have a client that I rooted their Note Edge but they really want Stock Recovery. Do you know how to put stock recovery back on there?
what am i doing wrong. i download the tar file for twrp but it won't show up when i open the odin because it is showing up as a .img file. if i just change it to .tar it fails

Download the zip file not the IMG.tar
Is it possible to do this. If my phone is already rooted?
I randomly found a YouTube video they walked me through rooting my phone before I knew shealth would have not work. This was a couple months ago I guess. So I'd like to get it back. Though doing factory reset isn't something that I'd prefer to do. But if it comes to it.
I'd assume just follow the rest of the steps in your tutorial?

You didn't unzip it right? Make sure you download the one with the .tar extension
ya thats what i was doing. i downloaded the .tar and unzipped it. flashing it without unzipping it worked fine

this trick will work if your already rooted. Clear your D. Cache and cache and start from the download/install xposed portion of the instructions. This is what I ended up doing and haven't had any issues at all.
For those who have moved to lollipop has anyone tried this method

Sent from my SM-N915P
Which method in Post #1 did you use?
Root using chainfire odin twrp ,xposed does not work on lolipop,so no other steps.
