Enjoy Xposed Framework on Galaxy S6

by Popa Loredana · August 25, 2015

A few months ago, rovo89’s popular Xposed Framework offered support for Android 5.0 Lollipop, but despite of that, one of the most popular smartphones of the moment, none other than Samsung’s Galaxy S6, couldn’t run that version of Xposed. This one was only compatible with ARMv7 devices, while the Galaxy S6 (just as it galaxy S6 Edge brother) is based on the ARMv8 architecture.

Have you heard the latest news about Galaxy S6? A recognized contributor and developer at XDA-Developers wanam just released a version of Xposed that should work on all versions as well. So, if up to this moment, the Xposed Framework was limited just to Samsung Touchwiz Lollipop ROMs, things have changed with this Xposed framework variant built which has been already tested on the Samsung’s Galaxy S6.

Before getting too excited about that, let me tell you the fact that this is still in an experimental phase and that it comes with some major changes to the framework part to get it working with the AOSP ART (important ones have been made to “core-libart.jar” and “conscrypt.jar”). Even more, also be prepared for some bugs and serious preparatory steps.

If you want to be successful on applying this guide, you need a Custom Recovery such as CWM or TWRP (the choice is all yours, but it has to be the latest version, of course), along with a Xposed Installer apk file. Even more, Stock Deodexed 5.1.1 ROMS are a must, so if not having a deodexed Rom, try this tool to deodex your ROMright away.
