SettingsProvider classes not found, results in boot loop about xposed

[rovo89]

Thanks for the detailed report. One thing I noticed is that the system says that the odex file needs to be recompiled for Xposed, but there's no invocation of dex2oat afterwards. I'll have to have a closer look into this.

I'm happy to provide more information or install test builds if you tell me what is needed.

[rovo89]

@xinluh Could you send me your /system/framework/arm/services.odex please?

[xinluh]

Here is /system/framework/arm/services.odex

[rovo89]

Could you test this please? https://www.dropbox.com/s/qahj2hed1e4rlez/xposed-v71-sdk21-arm-test2.zip?dl=0
If it's not working, please post a new logcat, otherwise just tell me it's ok.

[xinluh]

I would love to test, but I need the arm64 build, I think (installer error: Wrong platform: arm64, expected arm).

Here is the services.odex from /system/framework/arm64, in case you need it:

Same here, unfortunately I need arm64 build as well.

[rovo89]

Here's the test build for arm64: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ilor9it1be7r6ec/xposed-v71-sdk21-arm64-test2.zip?dl=0

Still boot loops with the same error of SettingsProvider not found, and there is still no dex2oat call after DexFile_isDexOptNeeded for SettingsProvider (in fact, for quite a few other packages, too, not sure if that is the expected behavior). Here is the full log:

I notice something funny with the build though. Initially a 32-bit binary is found:

Oh, I forgot that I had disabled flashing the XposedBridge.jar for my tests... Here are new builds:

The phone boots! It is taking a long time to optimize apps, so I'll report back when everything loads up.

EDIT: phone runs fine and the few modules I install also seem to work fine.

[leloch]

I can confirm letv also boots with test3 version!

[sansanca]

Guys, i'm running LeTV x600 with version 4S. Rovo do you have an uninstaller for this v71 build?

[sansanca]

All right, i just checked the uninstaller in xda forum, seems version agnostic, so i'm going to try this build now!

[sansanca]

And it booted! First it optimized 170 apps, then 55, 35 and then 17(?!). Oh man... this would be so great if GravityBox worked on this!

[sansanca]

Gravity for Lollipop installed and seems to be working, i mean, at least it changed some battery text on the status bar! This is great. However doing a TWRP backup right now just in case some stuff goes nuts.

Thanks Rovo!

I modified your xposed.prop since I'm on 5.1.1, as I got the maxsdk error. Not surprisingly, it didn't boot on my G Stylo, not even past the T-Mobile splash screen that then goes to LiveBoot. Wiped cache and dalvik after the flash as well. I doubt you want the log since it's happening on 5.1 when this was built for 5.0, but I took one anyway. However, your changes might be good for romracer and his unofficial 5.1 builds, that might get Xposed working on many of the current LG devices, including the G4.

Can I ask what you found out from all of our services.odex files and what you've changed in xposed? I love the technical details!

[rovo89]

The commit message contains many details. Feel free to ask if anything is still unclear. I asked for the services.odex files because I thought I had identified a possible cause, but then I realized it must be something else.

[rovo89]

@xinluh @leloch @sansanca or anyone else who is running a stock ROM on an affected LeTV or LG device: I recently made some changes which might affect your device. To ensure that Xposed still works, I'd like to have some testers.

For those who want to test: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/gketc1pry8ovy33/AACEqJME6LijmlFzrRlkAnwja?dl=0
There are two test zips for every Android version/platform combination. Please first flash test1, clear the Dalvik cache and reboot. There might be a boot loop, but please give it at least 10 minutes. Then please repeat the exact same procedure with test2. Please report here which device and ROM you're using and whether versions test1 and/or test2 worked for you. Thanks!
