Hello there xda developers-Community ,
this is my very first post and I hope this is the correct board I'm posting in .
I have an issue with Cydia Substrate on Android, but before explaining to you what the issue is, I'd like to explain to you what I wanted to do and why I need Cydia Substrate (if you don't really care you can skip this, of course ):
I'm using a banking-app which, when detecting root on a device, stops working completely (it doesn't just show a warning, it refuses the user from continuing to the next screen). Of course, I don't want to unroot my device. So I did some research and came across apps like Hide my Root and RootCloak which is a Xposed Module. All of these apps didn't work for me, even when installed and set up correctly. After doing some research again I found out that it doesn't work for other users either... Doing even further research I finally came across RootCloak Plus which works with Cydia Substrate and not Xposed anymore. I can't confirm it yet, but according to the thread this method should work with my app. So, I downloaded Cydia Substrate (I tried the Google Play-Version and the APK from the website) and RootCloak Plus from Google Play. But now we get to the main issue:
Everytime I open Cydia Substrate it shows me a message saying:
Note: something about your device made it impossible for Substrate to perform its internal safety check; can you please contact saurik via e-mail?

Of course, actually contacting saurik via e-mail wasn't my first option .
I tried to fix this issue on my own with doing the following:
I updated CyanogenMod to the latest nightly
I switched my superuser app from SuperSU to superuser and back to SuperSU
I tried changing the SELinux mode from "enforcing" to "permissive" with SELinuxModeChanger
Reinstalled the apps and rebooted my device serveral times
Unfortunately, even though this problem seems to be quite common, there are only a few to nearly no threads covering this topic anywhere (at least I only came across over a few of them).
Here are some of my specs and details, maybe any of this will help:
Device: Samsung Glaxaxy S4 (jfltexx)
CyanogenMod version: CyanogenMod 12 12.1-20150708-NIGHTLY-jfltexx (Android 5.1.1)
Superuser App: SuperSU Free (CM) v2.46 (binary up to date and SuperSU working with other apps just fine)
BusyBox version: BusyBox v1.23.2-Stericson
Root properly installed and working, confirmed by serveral apps.
Do you have any idea how to fix this issue? I hope you can help !
Thank you very much,
DigitalClark .
I have the exact same issue. On my streaming app, xposed module allows me to bypass warning, but I still can't watch any shows...

I have the same problem on a Sony Z2 (sirius) CM12.1
So if anyone has an idea for a solving I'd highly appreciate!
Bump, in-case if someone has ran across a similar issue and found a solution.
Cydia Substrate is supported on Android 2.3 to 4.3 according to their website. Also the app itself hasn't been updated since 2013. Thus the chances that it will work on 5.1.1 are pretty dim.
I get the same message. I am just wondering if SuperUser is the reason. I don't think SU can find it, will this cause the internal safety check message to occur?
If you jail break your device it will work

I'm running Greenify 2.7 beta 4 on BlissPop-v3.7-vs985-OFFICIAL-20150803-0536 (Verizon LG G3) with Xposed for 5.1, but for some reason every time I try to enable an option that uses Xposed in Greenify it tells me to activate the module and reboot... only I've already done those things plenty of times. I can't get it to recognize Xposed even though I can get other modules to work just fine. Is there anything I can do?
I have the same problem. I wish I could get it to work.
Actually, I got it to work by updating to the latest alpha of Xposed Installer (3.0 alpha 4 at the time)

i am using alpha 4, but having the same problem... in xposed log i get:
Code:
Cannot load any modules because /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/modules.list was not found
Other modules work, but i have uninstalled them anyway in an effort to fix the problem. Ths is on AryaRom for Galaxy Note 3. Yes it is Samsubg so i am using the official xposed framework, BUT ID DID NOT have this problem before i flashed this ROM. It was working while i was on Omega Rom
Hey buddy, it's just simple.
Follow the steps:
1.Go to xposed framework app.
2. Go to modules. (From menu at right top corner)
3.Then just enable greenify.
Comment me if it solved your problem.

Just went through this. Go to Xposed installer/Modules and you'll see greenify. Click on the module and reboot =) enjoy. Also 3 of the options in greenify Xposed will soft reboot the device, just a heads up

I installed xposed and some modules but when I open xposed, it says "Xposed Framework version 87 is installed, but not active. Please check logs for details".
I have tried enabling the modules and then restarting, but that doesn't work since modules cant be activated since xposed isn't activated. I don't even get root access prompt when I open Xposed.
Root works properly since I have adaway working and I checked with root checker app. Please help!
Log is too big to attach here.
Which rom ?

Let's share what does/doesn't work
Since I made the post, it's only fair I go first.
On A2017G, stock and updated via OTA to 7.1, the flash was successful. The first boot took ~10 minutes. I will now start testing modules and update this post with what does/doesn't work.
Modules I tried so far:
LP: Works
Amplify Battery Extender: Works
Greenify: Does NOT work - The module is active, however, the app does not seem to be aware that it is.
-I'm looking for the old Youtube Background Playback module. It seems to have been pulled from the download list inside xposed manager. If anyone has a copy of it, it would be great to see if it's still working. The LP patch for background play stopped working for me on 3 different devices about 2 weeks ago.
Great!
Maybe a stupid question, but will installing xposed still break safetynet checks? That was the only benefit of running.g without xposed; aps like horizon / Ziggo Go worked, hate to have to do without it.
TIA,
Cheers,

Amplify can't see wakelock or service...greenfy continue to tell me to activate the module. (I just set on the module and reboot many times)
UPDATE: other users with different device have the same problem, I think we need an update of these apps for working with the new version of exposed.

I had the magisk FC too. Fixed it by switching to stable channel reinstalling both the zip and the launcher. Safety net is broken with magisk hide setting and the "universal safety net fix" module.

@rzarectha thank you, but it didn't help. even tried install beta version;
tried to complete uninstall and install again the zip and apk - it worked and no more FC.
Im also on B32 with Magisk, but currently running the official Xposed for Magisk. Should I use the Xposed uninstaller or just remove and uninstall the Magisk Xposed module before starting with the official Xposed process?
Regarding YouTube background play:
I found the .apk on their github page, it's in the first thread that mentions it being removed from the repo. I tested it and it works!
For whatever reason, I cannot get past a bootloop after installing via TWRP. Interestingly, I can install the unofficial module from back in August. I can uninstall that just fine, but reinstalling the proper one does nothing but bootloop. Anyone else having this problerm?
Could anyone try running Fate Grand Order?
After update to V88 the boot time is longer for 45-50 second on my A2017G with Stock 7.1.1B06. With inofficial V87 boots better
This is what I have setup so far. Crappalinks, YouTube Adaway, XInsta, all work. Greenify doesn't and neither did Amplify, not properly anyway. Also it does break Safety net. We'll have to wait for the Magisk Module

why use Xposed for youtube adaway and background player when they make a separate app for that over here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-iytbp-injected-youtube-background-t3560900 I have been using this for a while now and it is great

There is a magisk module on the repo but to my knowledge it still breaks safetynet
For those with issues with magisk and xposed, you can't use them both together, if you want to then you have to use the specific xposed magisk module here https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-systemless-xposed-t3388268 also flashing xposed regardless magisk or not its going to break safetynet no matter what. Will explain in that magisk xposed thread.
If someone got problems like me, heres my way i installed it successfully and get everything to work (Magisk!):
- disable xposed modules
- restart to recovery
- install Xposed v88.2 by topjohnwho (from xposed thread) via recovery
- reboot to system (first boot took ~9min)
- install Xposed Installer 3.1.2 for Magisk
- activate modules in xposed installer
- reboot phone and its done.
If you dont deactivate the xposed modules before flashing xposed, you maybe have to reinstall them and maybe set up everything new, if you cant save the settings for the modules. This was happening in my first try. In my second try i disabled them before and activated after flashing and dont have do setup every xposed module again.

Can you use gravity box module on the stock rom? Is miflavor "close enough" to aosp to be compatible with mods made for that?

Yes. Not all is working, but center clock, battery mod in statusbar, RAM usage in recents, down-/uploadspeed in statusbar and some other things ... enough for me.
I'm still trying to figure out what options need to be set for Greenify to work at its optimum.
I'm running a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2" Tablet running stock Lollipop 5.0.2. The device is rooted with SuperSU 2.82 SR5 and using Xposed 87.1 SDK 21 custom by dkcldark. Currently running Greenify 3.8.5 stable.
Since I'm rooted I understand that I do not need to enable Accessibility Services, but I am unsure about "Device Administrator" and "Apps with access to usage data", both of which are not currently enabled.
Does this sound right to everyone else?

Device administrator is only needed if you want Greenify to lock the device following manual hibernation (ie: via widget/activity). Not certain about access to usage data. It's enabled on some of my devices but not others (all rooted/Xposed). I don't recall being prompted or fiddling with this setting. Also not mentioned in developers FAQs. Bit of a head scratcher.
