Hello fellow xda members, I have used many other sites but haven't been on xda since my droid bionic days... I didn't give up on the v10, i contacted tung and here we are!
Any hoo the method was created by the 6th_Hokage for the boost stylo and it works with a little tweaking on our devices.
Follow the prerequisites from his thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-stylo/how-to/guide-xposed-boost-stylo-5-1-1-t3192494
Here they are for quick glance
Required:
Root
Busybox installed on the device: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d....busybox&hl=en
Script Manager: https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...tmanager&hl=en
Package needed Xposed Boost Stylo.zip: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347813218
Extract the stylo zip to the root of your internal storage
you should see the installer script file and the xposed zip package
download corresponding xposed zip and installer apk
(v80sdk22arm64) and (3.0 alpha 4)
rename the v80sdk22arm64.zip to the v72 found on the root of the sd from the Xposed Boost Stylo.zip
then run it following the instructions from http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-stylo/how-to/guide-xposed-boost-stylo-5-1-1-t3192494 by kakashi aka the6thhokage
5- Open Script Manager and navigate to the installer file (script) and chose script, su then press save .
6- now select the same script and press run and choose the option according to what you want (Yes/No)
7- Wait for the script to finish, now go to Xposed Installer apk that you installed before and select soft reboot (it will turn off just power back on)
8- After restart and you may use Xposed properly
soft reboot and there ya go! Ill add more stuff when I get time
thanks peter muzyka
hey the errors don't hinder it and use kernel auditor to set permissive on boot. I also would like some coffee funds if you feel the need paypal [email protected]
I get this error message when I try to install
it should continue to run, make sure you renamed the xposed zip to the same name as the one in the file and have it placed on the root of your internal storage
I renamed the file and put the folder in the internal storage
As a zip not folder all on the root of the sd. I'll make a all in one after I get with romracer and 6th hokage
got it working. thanks.
@THADDIUS25
Like superdallas said, you must put the files from zip into root of internal storage. your screenshot is showing you put the files under "Xposed+Boost+Stylo V2"
Also did you download v80sdk22arm64 then renamed it? you can find download link from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Need to fix Google Play Store links =)
I just used the steps in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/install-xposed-framework-to-lg-spirit-t3226809
Clearer steps by playadru182 below: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66015228&postcount=48
Also, if anyone is getting a second screen error when making calls after installing xposed. Don't forget to follow @tattedup 's tutorial on second screen fix.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/general/xposed-fixes-screen-t3246515
It doesn't continue to run in my case, it just shows it can't create /proc/self/fd/
Like this?
http://imgur.com/A1FbNtS
Yeah, it does exactly like that.
Make sure Busybox is installed. As in, run the the Busybox app that you downloaded from the Play Store and install it from there.
Yeah busybox isn't installing properly for some odd reason I believe. It does not run like it usually does.
It doesn't say installed when you tried installing it?
https://imgur.com/JTfuKST
It does say installed....
What fixed it for me was either installing Busybox (I forgot ^^ or using the Terminal Emulator way that I mentioned in my comment to the OP.
When I did that it said no such file or directory
When you entered "su" then "sh /sdcard/installer" in the emulator?
Unlike the OP here that says to put the files in the root folder, put it in the /sdcard folder then try it.
I put it in the folder, but still, no such file or directory.

Been using Franco's Rom and Kernel and it's been great. However, I like to update to his v.14 kernel. I did the format
1. Wipe
2. Partition, etc...
3. Load v5 Rom
4. Restart
My problem is right here, the warning is to delete the tweaks file and the script file (which I don't have one) in File Manager. I use the OI manager that comes with v5 Rom but it just wont' delete, and I don't want to load the new kernel because of all the warnings, please help :-(...

it wont delete cause of permissions. I use root explorer for this kind of work. In this particular case i had deleted the nececary scrips from the flash zip and i flashed afterwards. (i had a clean install)
I am trying the clean install as well, can you give the instructions or point me to somewhere where I can read more about this, thanks for your time and effort.
Do I just delete it in the Devoid.Franco v5 zip before flashing and then restart the process (the only file that I can find is tweaks.sh)
Sorry, found the init.d file as well. Would I delete those files in the zip, rezip and then start the process over?
you just delete them from the zip and you flash it as usuall. just dont forget to disable verification check on your recovery or else it will give you error
Sorry, just a newb when it comes to this.
I couldn't delete the two files from the devoid.franco.v5.zip file so I did the following:
1. Extract the zip file
2. Deleted the two files
3. Rezipped the files into a new devoid.franco.v5.zip
4. Load the zip into the micro sd card after all the wipe and partition
5. Disabled Signature check
6. Tried the flash and it said it can't open the zip because it's bad :-(...
This can't be that hard when all the other kernels was easy to install...

Extracting a zip and re-zipping it DOESN'T work. You are not supposed to unzip the file. Just flash the rom, delete the offending files using root explorer, and then flash the kernel.
Sent from my LG Optimus One P500 using XDA App
You should't extract the file and rezip it. It corrupts it when it comes to flashing. I personally browse the zip file with winrar and simple delete the files i need. I also add files to zip this way like apks, ringtones etc
Trying winrar and it seems to work, gone to see if I can finish the entire process. Thanks so much for your time again. In the future, can I send the apps that I want directly into this zip? I can to sue something zipsigner before to get calendar, etc... Thanks again!!!
An alternative way for a clean install:
1: wipe everything
2: flash devoid.franco.v5
3: reboot (to check if everything is ok)
4: reboot into recovery
5: mount /system partition under 'mounts and storage' (clockworkmod)
6: from pc type (with phone still in recovery): 'adb shell'
7: in adb shell, type: 'rm /system/etc/tweaks.sh'
8: in adb shell, type: 'rm /system/etc/init.d/00script'
9: flash franco.kernel.v14
10: reboot
I Hope it helps,
Bye
You're welcome m8.
And yes you can have the apps you want inside the rom this way very easilly. just put them in app folder. I did this with some removed apps like browser and calendar and also removed zeam launcher and used adw launcher (personal taste) I even tried that with frameworks (aka themes) and it worked great
Thanks so much to both of your posts, it's working. One last questions, thought setcpu was already implemented in this kernel, but I don't see it anywhere? Again, thanks again for everyone's time and effort, learned so much today (wife is mad though because we need to do house work, lol, lol, better get going)... She said, "who formats their phone 5 times in 1 month, lol, lol"
setcpu is NOT included, you have to install it.
See first post in franco.kernel thread for the link.
Eh! eh! you are not in Europe, I guess if you have to help your wife NOW!!!
Barcelona-ManchesterUTD right NOW...
oh yes the wifes. my gf gets fustrated like "wtf are roms and kernels?? its just a phone!!! you call people and they call you back" rofl
One last note on setcpu. When i was using last version (2.13), every time i rebooted my phone the settings where gone and had to set them again. I switched to v2.1 and it worked like a charm. Have no idea if that is general issue or only me had it. Just thought i should tell you
Done via editing the zip with rar and all worked smoothly.
Thx all

Since removing ads from browser and apps was one of the main reasons to root my DX I decided to make this tutorial. Problem is you can't just install AdAway (link) and run it because after a reboot you'll have to do it again. This method is keeping the ads away even after a reboot. Remember that you'll have to update AdAway-hosts files regularly.
All credits go to Yasir Javed Ansari. I only finetuned the method he described a little bit. Because his post is somewhere in another thread it seemed right to make a tutorial for it in the themes and apps section.
First of all you'll need a properly rooted DX with superuser 3.1.3 installed. See here for a zip to install superuser and busybox or here to download a pre-rooted 1.18 stock deodexed rom with superuser and busybux installed provided by infernal77. I'm using this rom on my DX and removed a lot of bloatware with Aroma (link) right after flashing the rom. Credits go to merovig for sharing info about flashable superuser/busybox-zip and Aroma and of course to infernal77 for providing his deodexed stock rom. Although it seems that this method shouldn't be necessary when using a deodexed rom I couldn't get it to work without using the command lines, so I decided to share it anyway.
In settings - power, uncheck 'fast boot'.
Install AdAway from Play Store. Run AdAway (don't download hosts files yet) and go to settings - preferences. Check 'allow redirections' and under 'target hosts file' select '/data/data/hosts'.
Reboot to recovery and then mount /system and mount /data.
While in recovery-mode connect the device to a PC and open a command prompt.
Type:
adb shell
cd system/etc
rm hosts
ln -s /data/data/hosts hosts
Disconnect the device from PC and reboot.
Now you can run AdAway: download files and apply ad blocking.
Done!
Nice one, added to Index.
@op, Good job.
Although my tutorial was word by word the same, apart from maybe few spelling mistakes. ;p
Above is required for Stock Rom which is rooted.
On custom and rooted Rom , you don't need to perform above steps as system is write permitted so running ad away normally works fine.
Regards
Yasir
Sent from my HTC Desire X
Hehe I know, the only thing I added was the /etc
Problem is that when I install for example infernals rooted stock deodexed rom, and then I install AdAway and hosts files, they don't survive a reboot. When I redirect the hosts file to /data/data/hosts AdAway states it can't create the symlink. That's why I still use your method even on a pre-rooted rom.

This symlink method(not mine) is present in ad away FAQs. So credit to the app team.

Nice guide, first time I'm adfree, even after a reboot
did anyone get it working on desire x... mine still shows ads in apps...
I don't know, after all I'm an amateur, but the problem nightcrow described about how stuff goes back to stock after a reboot is something that happens a lot with the DX's - same thing with the bloatware. I had to remove the bloat apps from a rom.zip and flash that to avoid the problem. Seems to me there is some kind of security built in that goes beyond the norm. Otherwise I don't see why apps like Titanium work to remove apps (even after reboot) for example on most other phones, but not the DX.
Meherzad, I followed the instructions posted by nightcrow and it works for me ... try again, reboot and open an app you know normally has ads to check if it works.
Failed first time (forgot to uncheck fast boot:banghead. Reinstalled and did everything again, now works flawlesly.
ok.. working great......

Might be but I'm not sure. I'm on 3.1.3 and it works fine. Although getting ADB to work in twrp recovery is a bit of a struggle for now.
What exactly doesn't work for you?

Why do you need ADB when you have TERMINAL in twrp. Just wondering

Thanks for the tutorial works great with Superuser 3.2. Just to clarify something, should I leave "fast boot" mode off now?

For this to work you will need to be rooted with twrp installed.
This is for people who are on the stock rom or a rom without init.d support.
1. Download the wp_mod.ko file from @flar2's thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701816
and copy it over to your SD card (either internal or external)
2. Boot into twrp
3. Select the "Mount" option on the main menu and tick system
4. Go back to the main menu and then go into the "Advanced" option. There will be a "File Manager" option
5. Navigate to the folder you saved the .ko file in and copy it (just touch the file and it will bring up the menu)
6. now navigate to /system/lib/modules and copy the file there by hitting the "select" button on the bottom right.
7. Navigate to /system/lib/modules and insure the file is there. Now touch it to bring up the menu. select "Chmod" option and enter in 644
8. reboot the device
9. Once booted fully open up Terminal emulator and type:
su
insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko
10. Once that's done open up a file manager app with root access and mount as r/w and navigate to /system/etc and look for the file install-recovery.sh
11. edit the file using a text editor, adding the line insmod /system/lib/modules/wp_mod.ko towards the bottom of the file
12. reboot and enjoy r/w on boot without running the command every time
13. profit
is this like being s-off, without being actually s-off
Not entirely, you will be able to make changes to system files while booted but you won't be able to flash fastboot zips like s-off
Or you could flash this kernel.... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2705074

First off, please don't quote the whole top post when its a long guide like this. I know its the default to quote the post when you reply. So just delete it, before you submit your post. We don't need the thread cluttered up with multiple reposts of what is already in the top post.
The mod makes very specific changes to the kernel, so I would say there is most likely no way in heck this will work on an M7, and might even damage it.

HTC M8 and rw fix
Still unable to get this to work,I followed your detailed instructions and wp_mod.ko is in correct directory with correct permission and install-recovery.sh is modified correctly.
However after final rebott (several in fact) /system is still r/o
I took a TRWP backup before I started so I restored and followed your instructions again , still same result, should this work immediately or will it take several reboots before it is operative? Other discussions on this and other sites indicate the latter.

Whichever Sense file corresponds to your Android build in Settings>About>Software.
If you are on the stock ROM, I'm guessing 4.4.2, since I do not believe 4.4.3 has rolled out to T-Mobile yet.
As usual, I would make a nandroid before flashing anything.

After searching a guide about this on internet for weeks (without any result), i decided to post my own guide about Permanently Rooting a L9 II mounting KitKat (it also include two little scripts made by me, to simplify the process to newbies) :good:
Code:
[COLOR="DarkRed"]DISCLAIMER: I DONT TAKE ANY RESPONSABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR PHONE[/COLOR]
P.S: You need ADB to be installed on your Computer.
1)Install TowelRoot (go to TowelRoot website with the L9 II and press the red Lamba, it will start the tr.apk download)
2)Open the "TowelRoot" application and press "make it Ra1n"
3)Install "Super User" and "Total Commander" from PlayStore
4)Enable "USB DEBUG" in "Developement" setting's
7)Download "init.engdo.post_boot1.sh" and place it in C:
6)Download and open Permanent_D605_KK_Root_Part1.bat
7)Open "Total Commander" , go into /system/etc/ , delete the original "init.engdo.post_boot.sh" and rename "init.engdo.post_boot1.sh" to "init.engdo.post_boot.sh"
8)Download and open Permanent_D605_KK_Root_Part2.bat
9)Enjoy
If anybody will ask for it, i'll upload a standalone .exe to do all this

7)Download "init.engdo.post_boot1.sh" and place it in C:
6)Download and open Permanent_D605_KK_Root_Part1.bat
7)Open "Total Commander" , go into /system/etc/ , delete the original "init.engdo.post_boot.sh" and rename "init.engdo.post_boot1.sh" to "init.engdo.post_boot.sh"

When i try to push file init.engdo.post_boot1.sh with root_part1.bat CMD says: remount failed: Permission denied or failed to copy C:/init.engdo.post.boot1.sh to /system/etc//init.engdo.post_boot1.sh : read-only file system
Much easier instruction.
Most of the instruction in the first post is unnecessary.
1) you do NOT need any computer at all
2) no USB debug needed (because you do not need a computer)
3) two .bat files are also unnecessary to download
All you have to do is to replace init.engdo.post_boot.sh file, which resides in /system/etc
You DO need:
1) towelroot installed
2) a file manager with root capability (I used Root Explorer for example)
Instruction:
1) download the init.engdo.post_boot1.sh, using the link in the first post- download it to your phone SD
2) open the file manager with root permissions enabled, /system/etc must be accsessible for read/write
3) copy init.engdo.post_boot1.sh to /system/etc (using the file manager running on your phone)
4) delete init.engdo.post_boot.sh in /system/etc
5) rename init.engdo.post_boot1.sh that you copied to /system/etc to init.engdo.post_boot.sh
6) reboot
All this is great! But, you forgot one important thing:
TOWELROOT does not work on version 20D (which is increasingly represented)
But here you have an explanation for v20D so who wants to try:

forgetting...
I did not know the 20D issue so I also could not have forgotten it.
Thanks for info. I just checked, indeed, I have 20A. Towelroot and the permanent root trick work in my case.
Thanks for the feedbacks
I know it can be done more easily using a file manager on the phone, but i tried to make the process easier for newbies (I'm still a newbie too, i did it for myself because i was lazy, but i decided to post it , hoping to help someone )

Mmmm strange, are you sure you have SuperSU installed, and TowelRoot started before restarting? (TowelRoot's Root disappear after reboot, and so SuperSu binaries)
the question is ... WHY?
I want to point out that I did permanently root my D605 with KitKat. Took a bit of effort but actually it was wasted time.
I did finally go back to 4.1.2 software, rooted it, installed TWRP and then Varcain's modified Cyanogen 11. It is so much nicer than rooted stock 4.4.2. All the efforts of rooting Kitkat and keeping the root were unnecessary exercise.
Because the Varcain's image does not have any bloatware I could even switch from Dalvik to ART and still have enough free space on phone.
I have been relentlessly trying to fix the drivers that couldn't install, even when I installed it. So I have finally found a fix tinkering with my system folder. I will be posting a guide + the fix so scroll down to the appropriate section! I understand that other people posted the guide but I wanted to share my own way of doing it
Pre requisite s:
Busy box
Root (non systemless because it didn't work for me on systemless)
={ GUIDE }=
1) Install Viper4Android either from other posts or from the download links below which is a flashable zip with a dark theme
2) Download SELinuxEnforcing from the download link below and install it, THERE WILL BE A WARNING FOR SOME THAY IT CAN HARM THE SYSTEM, PRESS READ MORE OR SIMILAR AND PRESS INSTALL ANYWAY. THE APP WAS JUST REMOVED FROM PLAY STORE AND THIS HAS NO HARM THAT IT CAN INFLICT!
3)Go to SELinuxEnforcing and accept root permission then press on the permissive button.
4) Download root browser from the Play Store created by JRummy.
5) Alright ready for the fun part, reboot into Recovery mode TWRP
Decrypt your device( if you have it encrypted)
6) Press install and locate to the area that this v4a zip is located ( mostly /sdcard/downloads)
6) Press and install the zip
Reboot into device
7) Go into viper4android and install the driver
8) Reboot and after if you DO not see any installed driver, move on to the FIX section!
_——_
Pre requisites[FIX] + pre installed by you :
Busybox[GUIDE]
Root[GUIDE]
SELinuxEnforcing[GUIDE]
Root Browser
={ FIX }=
Got Root? Anyway, looks like its still saying Driver not Installed even though you installed it.
1) Now there's a very easy fix. Given that you have root browser following on from the guide or sliding through to this section taking a look at the pre requisites, go into it.
2) You will now be welcomed with a lot of folders. Locate to
system then vendor then etc then you will see audio_effects.conf that is interrupting the drivers.
3) What you want to do now is to long press it, which will pop up with various options, press rename and change .conf to .bak which will disable the configuration script but keeping it backed up for if anything that goes wrong.
4) Reboot and voila! Your drivers should say neon activated and etc.
PRESS THANKS IF IT HELPED AND WORKED SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE CAN SEE ITS VALIDITY
