Installing Xposed Framework without root? - Samsung Galaxy A21s Questions & Answers

Hello All,
Is there a way to installing Xposed Framework without root?
T.I.A.

no.

Actually I was able to get it partially working with the help of VirtualXposed.
As a result some of the apps work like:
Greenify
MinMinguard
No Lock
App Settings
XPrivacyLua
I want root so I can continue using:
Amplify
Adblocker
Gravitybox would be cool but the A21S seems pretty solid without it.

Hiding Xposed Framework from apps

Hi, So I recently ran into the problem of not being able to use certain apps such as Snapchat and banking apps while having Xposed Framework installed even if I do not try to modify that application. This problem has forced me to stop using Xposed. So I was wondering, if there was anyway to cloak Xposed. Don't suggest things like root cloak because the apps check for Xposed not for root. Thank you
There are none that i know of. But you can use systemless xposed and toggle it off from Xposed Installer when using apps that detect it. That's currently the only simplest method.

Hide Magisk, RootCloak alt.?

Hello, I just flashed a ROM that allowed me to utilize Magisk but it's very new to me. Is there a way to hide root with Magisk from certain apps that block rooted phones? I have Xposed installed but RootCloak doesn't seem to work, I tried checking Hide Magisk in the settings but no luck. I'm trying to use Vudu's disc to digital option, which seems to kick an error when root's detected. I got around this with RootCloak on my last ROM, I'm hoping there's an alternative. Thanks in advance.
Magisk hide should work for banking apps now. Please update and see.

Uninstall Xposed first, then update Magisk.
Safetynet detects Xposed, that's why you won't be able to use banking apps when Xposed is installed.
HIT THANKS IF FOUND USEFUL

Official N Xposed is here

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.
A2017G with B06 and Magisk v14.2.
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.

Getting Xposed working with SafetyNet

(AFAIK) this works and is relatively simple,
Install magisk
Install xposed framework
Go into xposed app & disable framework
SOFT reboot
Should have the framework (it will say not active, but afaik it seems to work fine with apps (tested YouTube adaway and fsbi)) and safetynet should be passed...

PSA: Magisk and Barclays

Firstly hi, thank you for coming.
While doing some testing, trtingbbto get xposed workibv, I found out that the barclays banking app will detect root if you haver xposed installer installed.
