Xposed for Lollipop is now Available!
Right after Google I/O 2014, Xposed creator, Rovo89, stated a couple things to the community: First, Xposed didn’t work on Android 5.0 due to its ART framework. Second, he would begin working on a new version until a stable version of Lollipop was available to the public (since Google changes things on the backend almost everyday). After making those statements, he pretty much left the community in the dark. That is until now.
Rovo89 has released his first implementation of Xposed for Android and you can get it via XDA. By first implementation, I’m talking alpha, very… alpha. Rovo89 states that Xposed doesn’t yet have material design implemented and he also warns that it may cause errors, bootloops, and for now will only work on devices that have ARMv7 — which you can find out by looking in your Build.prop or by following the instructions HERE.
Directions for install are dead simple if you still want to take the alpha version for a spin:
- Flash the .zip
- Install the .apk
- Enjoy the tweaks!
He also released the Xposed API for any devs that want to get started working on modules for Xposed.
For those of you who have Android 5.0, have you been waiting for Xposed to come out or have you resorted to trying out a ROM? I’m betting some of you haven’t even updated your device yet because Xposed wasn’t available. Am I right?
Check out the source link below to get started flashing — I know I have!

Urban Armor Gear LG G4 Case Review
June 23, 2015 | Vincent Messina
The Urban Armor Gear series of cases for the LG G4 aim to protect and serve your mobile device in a virtual blanket of, well, urban armor. Designed from a patented lightweight composite consisting of a hard outer shell and a soft impact resistant core, this dual layer defense not only meets military drop-test standards (MIL STD 810G 516.6), but looks good doing it. Now, before I go into more detail, let it be know that I have always been more of an au naturel device kind of guy, but after a bit of time with the Ash colored LG G4 Urban Armor Case, I can tell you that this case won’t be coming off any time soon.
Device Review: Droid Turbo, This is the Droid You’re Looking For
January 31, 2015 | Keyan X
The DROID brand deserves the majority of credit for the amount of early success that the Android operating system had in 2009 and 2010. From the original Motorola DROID to the original DROID Incredible, this was the brand of phones that people flocked to if they wanted a phone outside of the iPhone, not just because of a great marketing campaign, but because these were top of the line phones. Ask most of the readers on this site which phone got them started on Android, and you shouldn’t be surprised to hear them say, “The OG DROID.” It’s an iconic phone that helped launch Android to the top.
