I could test....odex stock without know boot loader or apps...let me know...

 

Does anybody know if Xposed works with stock rooted MK5?

 

There is a specific module available for Xposed called Wanam, it is designed to work with TW based ROM's.

 

Update to the info about Wanam. I had never actually run it before, just knew of its existence, so I restored my backup of JD's rom and installed it. Wow! Lots of customization, including the ability to get rid of the green color in the quick settings tiles. I have become so used to the Holo Blue color that I use it whenever I customize color options on any ROM or device. Also, four-way reboot option is possible, along with many others. Didn't play with it too much more than that, just wanted to see some of the features. Also be warned, and this applies in general when using Xposed Framework, if you install two different modules which both have similar options, i.e. XBlast Tools and GravityBox, then you might have very weird issues if they both try to modify the same aspect, as in changing the color of the icons in the status bar. One module may win out over the other, or neither may win. No real harm can be done, but it can get very confusing trying to figure out which module performed which function if you need to change anything. It is recognized and recommended by the module developers that you pick just one and go with it when this is the case.

 

Using Wanam? Yes, I was able to do that and change it to Holo Blue. There is an on/off toggle for each Wanam setting at the top of the screen when you go into each setting option I originally didn't see it and wondered why the changes weren't applying for me upon reboot.

 

You're welcome. That toggle was definitely "not obvious" when I tried the first time to make changes. I am used to just selecting the change without the extra confirmation needed by Wanam, but that's OK, still seems like a very useful module with an amazing amount of features.

 

Thanks for pointing out those toggles at the top. I missed them also. I got everything else working but the battery icon color is still green. Were you guys able to change that?

 

I have rarely had any luck, on any ROM, TW or AOSP, with any module changing the battery color, I think it is more "hard-wired" into the system than the other icons, toggles, etc.; this is just a guess on my part though. Personally, I disable the battery icon from the status bar altogether as I use Battery Widget Reborn (Pro) in order to display my battery status on my home screen, leaving just my WiFi and Signal Strength icons sitting unobtrusively at the top of my screen. I don't like having redundant info displayed on my home screen, so this arrangement works out really well for me.



P.S. Check out the heat wave forecast for my area, last week it was all teens, single digits, and negative numbers in the five day forecast. Still wore shorts to work every day though!

 

Cool thanks I removed the icon and just have the percentage showing now.

Just noticed the brightness check box is still green. It says in wanam that it may not work with some firmwares so I guess I'll have to live with that. or turn off auto brightness ;p

 

I'm thinking of trying out Xposed along with Wanam. No one has had any issues with that?

 

Worked beautifully for me last night, once I figured out the "on/off" toggle issue. XBlast Tools also works fine on 4.3 TW, but I wouldn't recommend installing both at the same time, too much overlap in their functionality makes one or the other redundant. Realistically, Wanam is going to be way better in a 4.3 TW scenario, much more customization available specific to anything you want to change in the TW configurations.

 

So there are different versions of Xposed dependant on the OS version? I was only aware of a single installer..

 

Correct, Xposed Framework (Installer) is universal, it opens the door for all the modules available. Very user friendly once you have it installed.
