What is Xposed Framework??
Xposed is a framework for modules that can change the
behavior of the system and apps without touching any APKs. That's great because
it means that modules can work for different versions and even ROMs without any
changes (as long as the original code was not changed too much). It's also easy
to undo. As all changes are done in the memory, you just need to deactivate the
module and reboot to get your original system back. There are many other
advantages, but here is just one more: Multiple modules can do changes to the
same part of the system or app. With modified APKs, you to decide for one. No
way to combine them, unless the author builds multiple APKs with different
combinations.
How to Install Xposed Framework??
To install Xposed Framework, consult the linked thread from the XDA Developers forum
and note, once again, that your device will need to be rooted and with a custom
recovery installed. Since November 2015, support for the Xposed Framework
extends to Android Marshmallow-based ROMs.
Individual modules are downloaded and installed from within
the Xposed Framework app or from the Xposed Module
Repository website.
Some Best Xposed Framework Modules:
Battery Saving Modules:
Amplify
If you are one of those whose battery gets drained very
quickly after updating to Lollipop/Marshmallow then Amplify might be the
solution. It’s perhaps best seen as a companion to that other
top battery-saving app, Greenify, which also has some Xposed
functionality. If you want Maximum battery life, use Amplify + Greenify.What Amplify actually does is, Amplify takes care of
wakelocks. These are when an app prevents the phone from entering deep
sleep. If you’ve ever gone to bed with a fully charged phone, and woken up
to discover the battery has lost 40% overnight, it’s highly likely that
wakelocks will be the culprit. Amplify helps to prevent that from happening.
Greenify
Greenify
help you identify and put the misbehaving apps into hibernation when you are
not using them, to stop them from lagging your device and leeching the battery,
in an unique way! They can do nothing without explicit launch by you or other
apps, while still preserving full functionality when running in foreground,
similar to iOS apps! Although its not only a xposed module but an independent
app too, it improves your device’s battery & performance to greater extent
if used with Xposed.
Android Customization Modules:
GravityBox
GravityBox has always been among the biggest reasons to use Xposed. It’s an unbelievably comprehensive tool for modding and enhancing the Android user interface. Almost no part of the Android experience cannot be tweaked or improved with this utility. This module allows you to add extra functionality to your keys like Double pressing Volume keys to skip tracks. Some of the most famous features are CyanogenMod Pie Controls, Launcher tweaks, Hardware key actions, Power tweaks & Notification control (per-app notification LED/sounds/vibrations).
Android N-ify
And so we come to the reason that you installed Xposed Framework. Android N-ify adds features from the upcoming Android N to your device before they are available to anybody else.
Features:
- New notification design
- New status bar header design
- New Recent design
- More double-tap fixes
- Use Recent button to return to last app or current app or navigate through Recents
- Option to restart SystemUI
- App theme switch
- About screen in app
- Option to force English app language
Awesome Pop-up Video
Awesome Pop-up Video is awesome video player unlike others.
It can play the video in a pop-up window, floating above other applications,
just like on your computer, a.k.a. “Picture in Picture” mode. Multi-task!
Why stop watching your TV show if someone sends you message,
or get new email? Open videos in pop-up from your device or open videos
from the Internet without downloading.
The
app has its own gallery of suggested videos, but it works in other players too,
including the official YouTube app. Simply open your video, hit the Share
button, choose Awesome Pop-up Video from the list, and you’re away!
XPrivacy
XPrivacy is a permissions manager that enables you to control which functions and data on your device apps can actually access. It has long been one of the most popular Xposed modules. With the introduction of granular permissions controls, it looked like Xposed might become redundant for Android 6.0 users, but it still serves a purpose. In Marshmallow, all apps automatically get the Internet permission. This will normally be used for benign purposes, like gathering analytics data or delivering ads, but it could be a potential security issue too.
With XPrivacy, you can ensure that only those apps you want
going online are allowed to do so.
BootManager
A lot of apps take liberties with your system resources, setting themselves to load whenever you boot your device. It can lengthen the startup time and waste power until Android 6.0 decides to close them down itself. Just choose the apps you don’t want automatically launching and then reboot your phone. It’s like a more intelligent version of a task killer (which you should never use), and it can keep your less-used apps quiet until you actually need them.
Battery Home Icon
Finally, a sweet little mod that helps with the battery life obsessions we all have. Battery Home Icon turns the circular home button in the navigation bar into a battery level indicator. It’s as customization as you need — you can add a percentage or make the lines thinner or thicker. But by default, it’s simple, and it’s the kind of detail that could easily be integrated into the operating system itself in future.
MinMinGuard
MinMinGuard is an Ad-remover made with Xposed Framework for
Android. MinMinGuard can completely remove both the ads inside apps and the
empty space caused by those ads. Conventional ads removing apps are only able
to block the ad content, but the space taken by the ad will still remain unused
(black). MinMinGuard successfully removes that black space, which extends the
app window and makes your user-experience better.
Features:
- Totally remove the advertisement. You can notice that AdBlock and AdAway only stops showing the ad content, but it can not remove the empty field that was originally taken by the ad. MinMinGuard can totally remove the empty field!
- Lightweight. Alternative ad removing apps (AdBlock etc) constantly run a background VPN service, which puts a heavy loading on the system. MinMinGuard does not need to run a VPN service, so it saves system resources and, thus, extends the battery life.
- Per App Setting. MinMinGuard lets you choose which apps you want to remove ads from. If you only want to remove ads from several apps, MinMinGuard is your best solution.
- OpenSource. MinMinGuard is an opensource project under GPL license 3.0! You can find the source code of MinMinGuard on my Github repository.
Apps Customization:
XPosed GEL Settings
The Google Now Launcher is the stock launcher on Nexus and other vanilla Android devices. It’s a stable and good-looking launcher, but it has almost no support for customization so Xposed GEL Settings fixes that. There’s a massive array of options, from simple things like removing the omnipresent Google search bar, to changing the grid size so you can add more or less icons to the home screen. Upgrade to the premium version and you can even add notification badges to icons to show the number of unread emails, texts and so on.
ChromePie
ChromePie makes the Chrome browser more useable with one hand on big screen phones. It borrows the “pie control” concept seen in numerous custom ROMs. Hold your thumb on a specific area of the screen, such as a corner or one of the edges, and the pie controls appear — a semi-circle panel of icons. This module integrates with Chrome, and puts tab switching, bookmarks, and more within easy reach of your thumb.
Play Store Changelog
Play Store Changelog is a simple module that performs two surprisingly useful functions in the Play Store app.
First, it displays the whole What’s New in an app
update screen, without you having to click through to read it all.
Second, and even better, you can set the Play Store app to
open directly to the My Apps & Games page, rather than the Store’s home
screen. If you update apps more than you install new ones, this is really
handy.
Instagram Modules:
Zoom for Instagram
Zoom for Instagram speaks for itself. It adds the most obvious missing feature from the Instagram app — the ability to zoom into photos. There’s a standalone app by the same name in the Play Store. It’s from the same developer and it doesn’t need root, but it’s a bit of a clunky workaround. The Xposed module is far more elegant: it adds a zoom button right into the middle of the official Instagram app.
XInsta
Enables a button to download instagram image and videos directly to gallery .
Features:
- Change default save location (Downloads/Instagram)
- Comment copy feature (Removed by Instagram)
- Direct share downloads
- Unique hook updating
Disable Instagram Double Tap
Disables the double tap
to like feature in Instagram. Prevents accidental liking.
YouTube Modules:
YouTube Background Playback
Enable background playback in YouTube and playback control via notification. Use the world’s most popular video App as a non-stop audio streaming music app.
YouTube AdAway
This is a simple module to help you get rid of ads on the official YouTube App, it also supports YouTube TV/Gaming/Kids
Features :
- Remove YouTube Ads
- Remove Channel Logo
- Remove videos suggestions
- Remove Information card teasers
