How to Install Xposed Framework on Android Lollipop 5.1


Uploaded a new video!

Xposed Framework is a revolutionary tool for our Android devices, which allows you to customize and tweak your (rooted) device, without the necessity to install custom ROMs.

Available since Gingerbread, kudos to rovo89 and his teams, they have made it compatible with Lollipop, despite it's big Dalvik to ART transition.

However, the gap of Lollipop 5.0 to 5.1 is quite big that the Xposed for Lollipop 5.0 isn't really compatible for 5.1.

Thanks to romracer, he has brought Xposed Framework (unofficially, with permission) to Lollipop 5.1.

In this video, I will show you step-by-step how to install Xposed Framework on your Lollipop 5.1 device.

It's a really simple process, 4 steps and you're good to go!

Please be noted that this Xposed for Lollipop 5.1 for now only works on ARM-powered, 32 or 64-bit devices and it is not available for x86, yet.

Where to get a lightweight version of ADB and Fastboot?



You need ADB and Fastboot to debug or tweak your Android device, but then you feel that Android SDK/Studio is too large to download or unnecessary?

Look no further, there's a solution to that.

Thanks to shimp208  at XDA-Developers, he has extracted ADB & Fastboot from the SDK suite and packed them in a convenient installer (it's just 2MB in size!)

I've personally tested on my PC (64-bit) and it works!
