Xposed when installed makes Xposed-disable-recovery.zip which is stored in internal storage of your phone . You should enter into your phone's recovery mode and flash that zip to disable all xposed modules .
Hit thanks if it works

Hi
Stock recovery has signature verification so it won't work . I have not tried it but you can give it a try . Rename Xposed-disable-recovery.zip to update.zip and place it in root of sdcard. Now go to stock recovery and choose option update from sdcard . It checks for signature and then installs . And I'm sure It won't work . You should install custom recovery and flash that zip. In custom recovery signature verification can be disabled and can be used to flash any zip
Thanks
Thank you. I got it to work using another method... You can hold either the home, vol up, or vol down button while phone is starting up and it disables xposed. Which custom recoverry do you suggest I use? Im on a galaxy s5 with Verizon, and nk2 build rooted.

Really didn't want to make a new thread about this but honestly people just jumped to conclusions without being helpful in my previous thread.
Long story short I'm trying to manually get 4.4.2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2664561
I saw that I needed to get s-off, which requires root. Bootloader was already unlocked and so did everything here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273376
I installed CWM. It said to install a superuser tool so I installed SuperSU.
"You're not out of the woods yet! The stock kernel is system write protected, so you still can't modify it (changes won't "stick"). You'll have to flash a custom rom or a kernel if you want stock instead." was the next line. <-- I saw that message. Installed a kernel that he recommended: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2255900
After reboot I get SuperSU error: There is no SU binary installed and SuperSU cannot install it. If you just upgraded to Android 4.3, you need to manually re-root- consult the relevant forums for your device etc.
Can anyone help me get the proper SU Binary installed? Not a beginner to rooting as I've had had several previous phones before. Never encountered something as annoying as this.
On 4.3, 3.17.502.3.
I had the same issue when I installed 4.4.2 on my international One.
What I done to root was;
- downloaded SuperSU v1.80 zip from here.
- download SuperSu from the Play Store
- in SuperSU, select the option to install binaries via TWRP/CWM. (If it doesn't reboot to recovery, manually enter recovery)
- flash the supersu v1.80 zip and reboot
- open SuperSu and install the binaries using the normal option.
That then enabled my root. I'd tried quite a few different variations and this was the only method that worked for me.

I flashed the Recovery_Cingular_US in fastboot. Unfortunately I'm unable to boot into stock recovery. I've been told right after you enter recovery from bootloader you press all three buttons simultaneously?
Is there a way to get into stock recovery from fastboot? Or better yet install the ROM from fastboot?

You seem very confused about the whole rooting process ... what was the point in flashing the stock recovery ? Are you trying to install the OTAPkg.zip ?
what Rom are you wanting to install and whats flashing stock recovery have to do with it ?
Well, if you looked at the thread I linked, you'll see that it says to flash a stock recovery file in order to install the OTAPkg.zip

I wrote the thread you linked too
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2659374
and yes it is necessary to have stock recovery to take an OTA, but your post didn't mention taking OTA it said you had no SU installed.
to get into stock recovery
boot to bootloader
choose recovery
wait for black screen, hold vol up and then power
you will see something about sdcard fail .. ignore it till the menu comes up
then choose to flash OTAPkg.zip from sdcard
Well with the fact that i just 'Beginner' in android -developer world i spent two days (read and search) to just know what the right steps to have unofficial rom . So this is not thread from professional it's just what i understand so far . (SORRY FOR BAD ENGLISH)
It's some simple Steps :
1) First you need to root your Device to have fully adminstrator . (This make you can execute terminal order from you and the apps)
2)After you get root install flash tool To do Setup 4 . (Rasher or Flashify)
3)You must UNlocked you bootloader . (So the new rom can edit your boot process)
4)Install custom Recovery [CWM]or[PHILZ]or[TWRP]. (This make you can do zip install from external card)
5)Get your rom download and copy to your external card.
NOW YOUR READY
OK Now my guide is for LG G2 MINI (D618)
The custom rom is [ROM][5.1.1][D618/D620] Cyanogenmod 12.1 Stable
And my phone have OFFICIAL android 5.0.2 lollipop
1) ROOT : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/root-root-g2-mini-lollipop-t3123652
If it not success . do factory reset and start the root again but this time (don't setup superSU from store and don't restart your phone and IT's su Not Su) this should success .
2) DOWNLOAD THE FLASH TOOL FROM PLAY STORE AND KEEP IT
3) BOOTLOADER : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE (YOU MUST TAKE BACKUP FOR YOUR PHONE FIRST)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/bootloader-d620-d618-t3127819
4) CUSTOM RECOVERY : FOLLOW THIS GUIDE (CWM SUCCESS WITH ME) (JUST FLASH .IMG FILE WITH SETUP NUM (2))
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/recovery-lg-g2-mini-d618-v10c-t2854493
5) DOWNLOAD THE FILE YOU NEED FROM HERE AND COPY TO EXTERNAL CARD AND FOLLOW Installation :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g2-mini/development/rom-cyanogenmod-12-1-stable-t3175833
NOW IF THIS SETUP'S SUCCESS THE HARD PART IS OVER.
6) Now reboot into recovery mode (you will find this in Flash tool)
in recovery mode you need just two things (WIPE AND INSTALL)
7)CHOOSE "Wipe" CACHE, DATA and SYSTEM (THIS WILL DELETE YOUR PERSONAL DATA AND SETTING AND EVERY THING)
8)CHOOSE INSTALL ZIP FROM EXTERNAL CARD AND CHOOSE FIRST KK_BOOTSTACK_D618_1.1.ZIP THEN cm-12.1-20150828-UNOFFICIAL-g2m.ZIP
9) RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL GAPPS (tk_gapps-modular-pico(uni)-5.1.1-20150824-signed.ZIP)
10) NOW YOU HAVE DONE .. REBOOT YOUR PHONE AND IT WILL DO SOME INSTALL FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTE AND YOU WILL SEE SETTING SETUP ON THE SCREEN
11)F YOU HAVE unstable SIM signal JUST GO TO RECOVERY AND WIPE ONLY CACHE IT WILL BACK TO NORMAL.
THIS IS MY experience ON MY G2 D618 I DON'T KNOW ABOUT OTHER PHONE'S
THANK YOU XDA AND XDA-DEVELOPER'S FOR YOUR HARD WORK .

Tried to flash custom recovery with Rashr after unlocking bootloader. Tried CWM, Philz and TWRP and always ended up with attached screen.
What do you think the mistake is? And what do you mean with setup Num 2? Do you mean kernel flash in Rashr?

this is the stock android recovery that means that you didn't or couldn't flash a custom recovery

Hello XDA!
I am writing this thread to ask for help rooting my Samsung Galaxy J2 Pro.
I attempted to use apps such as: Framaroot, Kingroot, etc.. but so far none of them have worked and I have not been able to find a working guide on the internet of how to root my phone.
I also tried installing an unofficial version of TWRP for my phone but everytime I tried to boot into the recovery it would say "No Command" and then boot into the original recovery.
Is anyone able to help me root my phone? Can it even be done?
Any help is sincerely appreciated. Thanks!

Try this at your own risk
Make a backup before trying
I got root access with this method
Download stock Rom from sammobile extract and there should be 5 MD5 files extract the AP file with 7z and copied boot.img on to sdcard
Installed MagicalMmanager-7 used it to patch the boot.img to a tar file
Copied the boot image to my pc desktop then flashed the boot with odin
When I booted it back up magisk manager kept crashing so I uninstalled it and installed magiskmanager-5.23 rebooted it opened magisk and followed the prompts to update it

You need to hold recovery combo, then click start in odin. Keep holding recovery combo until flash complete and twrp booted

Keeping it short. This is a simple way to root your device. You will need a computer and a data cable for this.
Objectives :
Have root using Magisk
Be able to install OTA from the settings without bootloops
Avoid boot loop
Very important :
This will work with ANY Xiaomi phone, and should work with ANY ANDROID phone as well. The difference between phones would be in where you can get your boot image from.
Your phone has to have an unlocked bootloader
Your phone has to have stock recovery. TWRP WILL cause bootloop for root and/or OTA updates from system.
I like to have root with magisk and don't want to install TWRP because I want to be able to install OTA from system without boot loops. This guide will help you achieve this with ease.
Steps:
Download the ROM full zip file. This could be the ROM ALREADY installed on your phone or you are updating your phone to it. Here is a video of one way to get your ROM file.
https://youtu.be/KsxHial1v1U
Open the file and extract "boot.img" on your phone or Computer.
Move the boot.img file to your phone
Download and install the latest Magisk official manager app from here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v7.4.0/MagiskManager-v7.4.0.apk
Open Magisk manager and click install then "select and patch a file" like in this video
https://youtu.be/USHcCMYlexM
Copy the Patched image from the download folder to your computer adb/fastboot folder
Reboot your phone into fastboot (press and hold power and vol down) and connect it to the computer
Flash that patches image file using fastboot
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open Magisk manager and complete the installation if needed. The app will prompt you for action.
Enjoy
Update May 2020
Hello again,
Sorry for being away for so long. Here are some of the things I have noticed people are confused with and need to make them clear:
This method works for ANY Android phone. As long as you have the Correct boot.img and can unlock the bootloader
MAKE SURE 100% you have the correct boot.img file for your CURRENT ROM
MAKE 100% SURE, the boot.img file you get from the FULL ROM zip file, not an OTA update zip file
Make sure you check the date and time of the "magisk_patched.img" file to make sure that is the one you made
Make sure you use the LATEST magisk manager
Make sure you open magisk after flashing the magisk_patched.img as boot image. Magisk manager will tell you if there is another step needed, just click yes and it will be done in seconds
Make sure to enable "Hide Magisk" to allow you to have your BANK apps working as well as security checks
If any app you use gives you an error "YOU ARE Rooted bla bla bla" Use magisk manager to hide the root for this specific app (in the settings)
That's all I can remember, good luck

No, bootloader has to be unlocked.
@Kiwironic followed your guide and worked very well, although I had to wipe data through the stock recovery to get the phone to boot, I believe that's just how newer Xiaomi phones work. I do have one question though, now that I'm rooted with stock recovery, would I be able to install OTA updates? I'm assuming I would of course lose root and have to redo the process from scratch if that's the case.

I had root on MIUI10 and updated the ROM to MIUI11 then did my root again the way mentioned and did NOT have to wipe. You can get OTA anyway, it will try the update first, it will fail, then it download and install a full ROM zip automatically. You have to wait for it to do that twice, that's all. The first boot after the update takes some time.
@Kiwironic First, thank you so your simple guide!
Can this cause bootloop on my device? If yes, can I simply flash the original boot.img to boot without any data loss?
Also another question: my device is rootless and bootloader unlocked, so my Google Pay doesn't work. When installing Magisk it goes back to work immediately or I have to do something to work?

If you flash the full rom, chances of bootloop is minimal. And should have stock experience except for being unlocked.
I got bootloop, using indian global V11.0.2.0.
After flashing patched boot, it gets bootloop recovery, only way is to wipe all data and reboot
After booting up and opeing magisk it shows a recommendation to install some ZIP

Anyone know why this happened?

Do you have stock recovery or TWRP? Which version of Magisk are you using?
I have patched my boot stock image, installed full ROM, then flashed the patched boot image. Magisk did not show any recommendation installation.
There are a few guides online on how to deal with Magisk Bootloop without the need to wipe data.

TWRP 3.3.1-8, magisk 20.1
Patching boot image with magisk wasn't a problem. The Superuser itself works normally, module doesn't. The magisk manager suggested to download additional files for the magisk to be working properly.
I'm on MIUI 11.0.1 Global
Was TWRP the cause in the fist place?

On first installation MM asks to download what it needs e.g. to verify SafetyNet. Allow and there is no problem about. TWRP is generally not needed to install Magisk. Things are documented in Magisk guides

Yes, as the title suggests "without TWRP". The reason is, you cannot install OTA and magisk easily without using the stock recovery. Any attempt to update OTA or use any recovery script on the phone will result in a boot loop.
The solution to get out of the boot loop is simple. Actually a couple of solutions.
One, flash your stock recovery, or
Two, flash a full ROM that includes the stock recovery.
No need to wipe data
That's the only reason I made this post and the other about OTA on root. I don't like to use TWRP because I want OTA install without boot loop. At the same time I want root. Hence the solutions I provided

I've tried flashing magisk via recovery and didn't work, the same bootloop. Here's the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/how-to/guide-miui-11-v11-0-1-0-pfjmixm-rooted-t3997299
I thought this might be a working alternative.
Gotta try installing magisk with stock recovery then, and if it still didn't work, well, more research for me..

You have to understand the requirements :
- stock recovery
- install magisk manager app
- patch the boot image for your stock ROM (same version on your phone)
- flash that Patched boot image.
- reboot
- done, that's magisk installed
