Anyone Got Xposed Or Gravity Box working on Lollipop 5.02? - Sony Xperia Z Ultra

As the post says, any luck on getting either working? I wish to flash Xposed but scared of getting bootloops.
With regards to Gravity Box, the latest current version does not even work with 5.1 without causing bootloops.

If you are on the Sony LP, you must wipe the ART cache on EVERY boot (Dalvik cache) since it will bootloop otherwise.
On other ROMs such as Resurrection Remix or BlissPop 2.3 based on 5.0.2, Xposed works well. GravityBox works too but is not that necessary on such a customizable ROM.
If you want Xposed without inconvenience, flash a different ROM than the Sony one and if you can live without GravityBox, I would recommend you to follow the 5.1 route and try the latest Cyanide ROM, which is excellent. Xposed Super-Alpha works but not GravityBox (which isn't necessary due to great customization options in the ROM).

I got gravitybox and several other modules running on lollipop with locked BL.
EDIT: Forgot to add, i lost recent key after installing gravity box. I use gravity box to reduce the height of navigation bar. I mean the key is ther and i can use it, just the square icon isn't there for some reason. hasn't really tried anyhting to get it back, just so you know, it doesn't bother me much.,

^ Thank you so much E90 Commie & jassalmithu for your response, both of which have been very useful...
I am indeed currently using the latest stock Sony 5.02 rom. I've not yet tried any other 5.02 rom such as Resurrection or Blisspop.
The main thing for me is battery life. I'm not sure how the above roms are for battery life but currently, the stock Sony rom provides excellent battery, even better than Kitkat. I got almost 6 hours of on screen time over a 2 day period!
For the moment, I'll refer to the link provided by jassalmithu and follow the instructions on getting Xposed running without having to wipe the dalvic cache on every boot.
Thanks so much once again.

Good news! After having followed the instructions, both Xposed & Gravity box are fully working without any boot loops or crashes/force restarts.
This was the link I followed which was posted by jassalmithu.

The only issue is that you have to format your data and re-install Android 5.02 for the above to work.
Other than that, I confirm it's working 100% should you follow the already easy to follow instructions!

[x86][GApps] FrankenGApps 20140826 4.4.x *UPDATED! Stable! Universal!*

DO NOT FLASH THIS ON A TOUCHWIZ ROM. AOSP BASED ONLY
This is a custom GApps package I created to work with x86 devices (namely, our tab) as the normal GApps packages available are arm-only. (and no, to those who would ask, it's not as simple as downloading PA-GApps and swapping the update binary. The actual files therein are NOT x86 compatible, namely, the libs.)
UPDATE 1: With the release of 4.4. for the P5210, I am pleased to announce that this is now a full, complete, stable GApps package
It contains everything found in the PA-GApps stock zip plus:
-Hackers keyboard
-Root browser
-Xperia home
note that Hacker's keyboard and Xperia home are just there in case google keyboard / google home don't work out of the box. I don't anticipate any problems, but just to be sure. After some feedback / testing i'll remove these if people want. Root browser however is here to stay.
UPDATE 2:
As of the 20140823 build, this is now a UNIVERSAL x86 GApps package, meaning it will work on ANY x86 device running 4.4.x with zero tinkering to the zip. I did this by using a slightly modified pa-gapps updater-script coupled with an x86 update-binary.
UPDATE 3:
The 20140826 build is mostly bug fixes. The updater-script in the 20140823 build was broken. This is now fixed. Google + was broken. This is also fixed.
Google keyboard was broken. This too, is now fixed.
Tested this build myself. All is well.
For those who want a ROM to try this with, head over to @moonbutt74 's thread "odds, ends tests". He posted a successful 4.4.4 build from a few days ago on i think the 4th or 5th post (though it is by NO MEANS dd ready. We're working on it)
DOWNLOAD LINK IS BELOW.
If you want to use this for any reason other than personal use, ask me first, unless you just want to include a link on your ROM thread. If you do want to include a link in your ROM thread, link to this thread, not the download link below.
Download link:FrankenGApps-x86-20140826
old builds:
20140823 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140823.zip
The updater script in this build is broken. On top of that, if you fix it yourself, google + and google keyboard are borked.
20140814 build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140814.zip
This build only works with the tab 3 10.1.
Old legacy hackey build:
FrankenGApps-x86-20140813.zip
there is absolutely no reason to flash the 20140813 build over newer builds. The 20140813 build is an unstable / hackey 4.2 gapps port, I'm just posting it for reference purposes. Naturally this build is unsupported. Please download the new build(s) from OP.
if i flash the build of 14th then i stuck on samsung boot logo. firmware was stock rooted deodexed 4.4.2. i have tryed it twice but always stuck on boot logo.

I was sameway, so I just downloaded the update from "sammobile" installed it and used " super Su from chailfire to get root also used root explore to take out the apps I did not need.
@evilspawnas
 @ghforlife
Why did you flash this on a touchwiz rom?
This zip is meant for aosp based ROMs like cm11. (I tested this package on @moonbutt74's wip cm11 build, works like a charm)
Besides, TW Roms have GApps built in

Oh, sorry, but all the other devices have cm 11, it´s like my normal behaviour to flash gapps... shame on me
Just updated to 20140823.
As of now, this GApps package is universally compatible with all x86 devices running 4.4.x. Zero tinkering to the zip necessary.
Just updated to 20140826. This build fixes updater-script, google keyboard, and google +. Read "update 3" in OP for more info.
Nice
Another stone in building our road to CM11. Thanks.
I know many will used this update.
To be honest, I am forced to used the market, but try to stay away from C I A applications. I am sorry did I say C I A. My apologies it is the Alzheimer, I mean Google.

so how would one go about installing this on a dell xps12 running intels official haswell build of kitkat?
(https://01.org/android-ia/downloads/android-4.4.2r1-ia0)
Manually place the files with root explorer?
thanks

Hey brother don't dare to flash it.... It's not for a Touchwiz rom like pimpdroid or Cagrom., It's for AOSP rom like Omni rom , AOKP , CM11 , AICP etc....

Thanks for the gapps, working on my 3830 AOSP rom.

These gapps are 6 years old and for older versions of android. Go to opengapps.org for android 7.1.2 based gapps.
And also why do you need instructions? Same as all gapps just flash the zip after flashing the rom

I have a tab 3 10.1 WiFi so if anything pops up around these threads I always have a look.
The tablet is still working fine for me without any gapps on it as I've found gapps are extremely heavy on such an old tablet. Instead I opted for a microg installation and it works perfectly (even being able to play games like bullet force or fwd assault) but i mostly use it for reading and cooking and that kind of stuff which it is perfect for.

Owhh, i see. I put this rom on my tab: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-3/development-10/rom-lineageos-14-1-t3587761
It does lag sometimes, but i removed some of the GApps it came with. I mean, the second i removed playstore some other Google apps stopped working so i had to delete them too. It's a bit better, but i dont play games on it, it's still laggy i should've chosen another ROM but i guess this is fine. Which ones are you using? If you want we can talk in discord, or here if you want, which ever way you fele comfortable. I can share the apps i have and etc, since we have the same tablet, finally i found someone in 2020 having the same device as i have! Ha. I'm still here, so if you reply and i wont answer, i will answer later, i have schedule to follow that's why
Ill wait for your response, anywhere, if you want dm me here, chat in this thread or check my discord, send a friend request and tell me here ur name so I'd accept it. You can also find me in the XDA discord server.

[Tutorial] Xposed Framework for Huawei MediaPad M1 (S8-301L/W)

Hi Guys, As you know there is not source and the source'm not very good to say .. but at least I bring as operating the xposed framework, (will also be used to change fonts, bootanimation etc. ..)
We went into root explorer, and headed / system
Set_Immutable.list select and change the name to Set_immutable.lis.old
now proceed to install the xposed framework (the latest version)
we entered
Xposed Installer> Framework> Install / update
If that does not work, go to build.prop and change ro.config.hwtheme = 0
Screenshot
Dose that works with the Mediapad X1 running on kitkat B010
Does not seem to work for me on B008 Malaysia firmware for X1. There is no hwtheme line in the build prop and even after I added it, it still doesn't work.
This tutorial is for the M1 not the X1.

Yes I know, but the steps are the same.
Did you get Xposed working on your 4.4.2 ROM? Mind sharing?

The steps aren't the same or you would have been able to get it working
The X1 has a themeing engine that interferes with Xposed framework. There is a hack to get it to sort of work, but most of the useful functionality does not work.

I would much appreciate your help in providing steps to get Xposed working on 4.4.2
I'm on B008 Malaysia firmware, and it is KitKat. I have it rooted with SuperSU and Busybox. Titanium is working fine, but doesn't seem to run schedules. Otherwise there aren't any other issues.

What are you looking to modify with Xposed Framework? A lot of the plugins wont work because of the X1's theming engine...
Here's a patch for the Huawei phones, but be warned this can really mess things up...

force closing with lollipop xposed

Installed xposed for stock rooted lollipop and fc.
There's a reason Xposed for Lollipop is still in Alpha release status. I would report the issue in the Xposed forum so that the developer is aware. He'll probably want log files to see what the problem is. Or just wait until a stable release is available.
I had the same problem what was the app?
Also i followed this guide and it worked on bliss pop maybe it will work on stock: http://www.phonearena.com/news/How-....0-Lollipop-and-actually-make-it-work_id66065
I think the main thing is to change from enforcing to passive

D802 - Stock Lollipop 30b - Dorimanx Kernel - Xposed + Xprivacy - Works!

Hi all,
I did not know where to post this, but I think "LG General" fits quite nicely.
After @rovo89 announced the availability of Xposed for Lollipop in February this year a lot of us where desparatly waiting for one of the most essential modules to work with it as well: Xprivacy!
Yesterday the Dutch developer Marcel Bokhorst finally released a Beta of Xprivacy which runs really good on Lollipop ROMs.
Although most information until now state a compatibility with Android 5.1.x I decided to give it a try on my D802 with stock 30b (5.0.2) and latest Dorimanx kernel.
I followed this thread to install Xposed and manually added the Xprivacy module right after.
Beside the usual hiccups with Xposed on the G2 in general (LG Smart Cover and LG Weather FC) there are no errors at all. All works as expected on my device. I am sporting a D802 with stock 30b, Dorimanx kernel V2.4 - 3.4.107, XposedInstaller 3.0 alpha2, Xposed sdk21 arm 20150430, and Xprivacy 3.6.16. This combo works, but you'll need a way to get rid of LG Smart Cover before installing Xposed or you'll be stuck in a FC-loop making your device rather unusable. I had to learn the hard way and had to remove the apk from within TWRP. So be warned! I cannot say, if this works on any other combinations of devices, ROMs or kernels. Try at your own risk!
Finally there is a safe way to run Lollipop on the LG G2!
Thanks to all the developers involved in making this happen!
Regards,
Tom

Which Framework should I use for Xposed?

Hey guys!
Hi just get my black Z5 Compact! It looks amazing!
I already unlocked BL and rooted my pretty little phone :3
Now I would like to install Xposed, but I just got a Q: wich fw should I use? I knew on my old big bad Note 4 I had to use an alternative fw for TW rom. Well, I know Xperia roms are pretty stock, but never know.
Thank y'all! :*
Well, I used XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk & xposed-v75-sdk22-arm64.zip & tested gravity box and a few others which seemed to be working fine, but as you'll see here, my camera is crashing, so until I worked out why, I can't say that xposed didn't have something to do with it.
I have camera crash too
This is the link :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=58828974&postcount=1
Thank's, already installed and replied
"I have camera crash too "
Which Build are you on? I am on the old 32.0.A.4.11 and my phone force reboots after I start any app upon boot since I installed xposed sdk22-arm64...
32.0.A.6.152
tried xposed-v80-sdk22-arm64.zip from rovo89, resulted in bootloop and had to uninstall it. just no luck, wait for more stable version.
Anybody at all able to run xposed? No combination at all of versions from 67 to 80 of sdk22 and roms can get me to even boot up. Really really frustrating.
