Stuck on bootscreen after installing Xposed Framework

[Mark Wagie]

I just upgraded from 4.4_r1 to 4.4_r2. After reinstalling Xposed & rebooting, it gets stuck on the bootscreen. Xposed has worked fine on every other release until now. 

I'm triple booting Android x86 /  Peppermint 5 / Windows 7 on an ASUS Eee PC 1005HAB.

Hello,

i had the same Problem. I upgraded my Android 4.4_r1 to 4.4-r2 resinstalled Xposed.

After several hours ggogling around i found a solution to start the system and then i found a way to get Androidx86 4.4-r2 starting with Xposed installed:

To start the System and to avoid the stucking on bootscreen the file /system/bin/app_process have to revert to the original:

- While you see the bootscreen press <ALT>+<F1>

- type "mv /system/bin/app_process /system/bin/app_process.xposed-bak" (without the quotes!) and hit <ENTER>

- type "mv /system/bin/app_process.orig /system/bin/app_process" (without the quotes!) and hit <ENTER>

- type "reboot" (without the quotes!) and hit <ENTER>

Your System should now reboot and Androidx86 should come up.

If you can't live without Xposed Framework, we can disable the Dalvik-JIT-Compiler:

- Add the line: "dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast" (without the quotes!) at the end or modify a existing one beginning with "dalvik.vm.execution-mode="

To do so, you can use vi from commandline:

- While your Androidx86 is running press <ALT>+<F1>

- type "vi /system/build.prop"

- hit <i>

- use the cursor-keys to go to the end of the file (if necessary press <END> and <ENTER> to add a new line)

-  type "dalvik.vm.execution-mode=int:fast" (without the quotes!)

- press <ESC> then <:> and type "wq" (without the quotes!) and hit <ENTER>

- type "reboot" (yes, without the quotes ;-) ) and press <ENTER>

System reboots and you can reinstall the Xposed Framework.

!!! DO ALL FROM ABOVE AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!

Thanks! I knew there had to be a way, just hadn't spent enough time researching.

Is there a major downside to disabling JIT compiler?

Disabling the JIT compiler could decrease the avergae speed of the system. Like all other JIT compilers like Java, javascript and so on, the main goal is to reduce the time that is needed for interpreting the code line by line.
In Android 5 aka L the DalvikVM will be replaced by the ART. The ART is interpreting the code at installation. That means, that the time for installation will be longer, but the apps will start incredibly fast.

I found a seconf way to enable eXposed-Framework on AndroidX86 4.4-r2 :

- on commandline/shell (remeber the <alt>+<f1>) type the following:

"echo 148 > /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/jit_reset_offset" (without the quotes) and hit <enter>

"chmod 664 /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/jit_reset_offset" (without the quotes) and hit <enter>

Now you can install/reinstall the framework and keep the JIT compiler speedup the execution of code.

!!! DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK !!!

Sorry! I posted the wrong link and command.

it has to be:

"echo 0x98 > /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/jit_reset_offset" (without the quotes)

Thank you, perfect instructions and no issues.

In case anyone else wants to do this. Install the framework but do not reboot when it prompts you. Run the command and then reinstall the framework and reboot.

Does anyone know if this method still works for 4.4-R5?

[stahl...@gmail.com]

YES, it works on my NC-10, like Bernard said --> "

[lexluthermiester]

So you are confirming that this method does indeed work with build 4.4.R5?
