How to increase lock screen / passcode delay on Android and mimick iOS "Erase all data after 10 failed attempts" feature
I recently got a Daylight DC-1 and am interested in changing the default incorrect lock screen delay from a static value to an increasing delay similar to the default in iOS, and also mimicking the ["Erase all data after 10 failed passcode attempts" setting](https://daringfireball.net/2018/05/10_str...
I recently got a Daylight DC-1 and am interested in changing the default incorrect lock screen delay from a static value to an increasing delay similar to the default in iOS, and also mimicking the ["Erase all data after 10 failed passcode attempts" setting](https://daringfireball.net/2018/05/10_strikes_and_youre_out) . > A 1-minute delay before the 5th attempt, 5 minutes before the 6th, 15 minutes before the 7th and 8th, and a 60-minute delay before the 10th. [Locker](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/net.zygotelabs.locker/) was able to erase data after a number of failed passcode attempts, but is no longer available, and was an incomplete solution without addressing the short delay since it could be invoked by accident. I found a [post from 2016](https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/144805/increase-30-seconds-lock-time-after-incorrect-attempts) which recommends [LockScreen Tweakbox](https://xdaforums.com/f/xposed-general.3094/) , but that doesn't seem to be active anymore (there's no recent update and it's not available in the [xposed module repository](https://modules.lsposed.org/)) . Are there any suggested alternatives?

How to give an APK higher boot priority?

I have a KernelSU rooted & Xposed/LSPosed enabled Android device running Android 10. Greenify by Oasis APK can detect what receiver trigger the startup of an APK, but when Greenify boot late, it won't know that. I want to give Greenify a higher boot priority to detect those other startup APKs receivers or providers or services (Not the traditional BOOT_COMPLETED receiver as it comes late), I tried making Greenify a System APK and device admin, but still its boot priority is low, I tried modifiying packages.xml in /data/system but no luck. I created this script in KernelSU service.d folder but I think the device is overwhelmed by the receivers at the boot process
#!/system/bin/sh

wait_for_process() {
    while [ ! -e "/proc/$1" ]; do
        sleep 1
    done
}

wait_for_process $(pidof com.android.systemui)

# Trigger Startup for Greenify
am broadcast -n com.oasisfeng.greenify/.Startup
Your help would be appreciated!

Update to Magisk 24.1. Support for XPosed modules / Changes
I am on Pixel 4a running stock Android 12. I was on Magisk 23.x with Lsposed (as Riru is anyway [deprecated](https://github.com/RikkaApps/Riru)).

I am on Pixel 4a running stock Android 12. I was on Magisk 23.x with Lsposed (as Riru is anyway [deprecated](https://github.com/RikkaApps/Riru)) . I had no need of updating to the latest 24.1, since everything was fine and I didn't keep up with latest Magisk changes. Till a banking app update ruined my peace, because it detected root (SBI Yono for Indian readers). All my efforts to circumvent root detection failed @ and I was forced to consider updating Magisk hoping that the *Deny list* feature would help in preventing root detection (though it's not same as Magisk Hide) or else use a compatible root hiding app Shamiko (stable version released a few days ago). This looked to be challenging since **Magisk 24.1 does not support Riru**. So **how do I run Xposed modules like XPrivacyLua, Xposed Edge etc?** This was my biggest worry. Google-fu didn't help, but a vague comment on Reddit gave hope. More search revealed other issues and their solutions, which are in the answer below. It was worth the effort since Zygisk is a key feature of Magisk and I may as well step up my game (and your's). All the best and yes, I won't be updating this to keep up with changes but you hopefully have enough pointers to find your way @Safety-net passed; developer options state hidden;device shows certified in Play Store. Hiding Magisk app 23.x involves jumping through a lot of hoops, so didn't try that.

Further to these questions: * https://android.stackexchange.com/q/207633/131553 * https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/218179/how-to-install-edxposed-on-android-10-without-triggering-safety-net * https://android.stackexchange.com/q/231176/131553 **How does one install Xposed framework on Android 12?** **Notes:** 1. This is a self answered question for the *fourth year* on this subject! Edxposed is still in beta and Android 12 is recently released, so there would be many changes to this answer in future. Since I do not intend to update this answer with developments, others are welcome to add and modify - sadly, in the previous three questions, there hasn't been a single edit barring mine :( , so this may help the diminishing breed of Xposed module enthusiasts. 2. Answer is generic in nature and for issues relating to installation / modules you are better off asking in respective device/module threads in XDA. Moderators are welcome to make this a community wiki if warranted.

Why LSPosed slows down screenshot take?
My phone is Samsung Galaxy M20 (OneUI 2.0 - Android 10) and I use the latest Magisk v24.3 (24300). After installing LSPosed, my phone takes screenshots more slowly. Why? Is possible to fix this? If possible, how?

Bypassing advanced root / modded framework detection
In the past,solutions for preventing root detection were centered around safety-net, Magisk hide or XPosed modules like Sudo hide.

In the past,solutions for preventing root detection were centered around safety-net, Magisk hide or XPosed modules like Sudo hide. With Magisk 24.1 plus Magisk Hide isn't an option and modules like Sudo hide aren't being maintained anymore. All revolving around a "frontal attack" of detecting root The sneakier way would be to find other ways to detect the root status based on finding traces of modded framework/ Xposed modules/Lsposed framework and obviously know that device is rooted and refuse to work.Or worse, a combination of both frontal and sneaky detection! As I mentioned here https://android.stackexchange.com/q/245242/131553 , Shamiko seemed to be an option but the adverse comments around it discouraged me. Searching for alternatives to Shamiko, led me to the revelation that there are enough instances already of sophisticated banking/streaming/gaming using "sneaky" ways to circumvent user measures like faking safety-net etc. So, I was getting ready for the future when one of the banking apps I use would turn sneaky and be ready for it. This search led me to an Xposed module which looks promising and (another) self-answered question. **Caveat: YMMV** If you know of another solution, please add as an answer.

Lineage OS 15.1 (Oreo 8.1)
Same use to happen before, with S7's original ROM **Important:** I have other Xposed/LSPosed modules that I **need**: - ExSDCard Access Enabler (Magisk) - App Locale 2 - Lucky+Patcher - Jasi Patcher - Disable-FLAG_SECURE - Greenify - Secure Settings - AFWall+ **And apps:** - Titanium backup ------------------------------------------------------- **Second part of the question:** How can I tell HOW the app detects root ? So I can possibly patch the leak... Block services... Make XprivacyLua more effective Maybe this second part is the most relevant here ------------------------------------------------------ **Third (optional) question:** Are there any updated news regarding this cat and mouse fight ? Is someone working against this hardware verification ? Having breakthroughs ?

I am trying to install LSPosed , but it requires Magisk v23 . I tried to install Magisk v23 using the instruction here , but I get this result: ~~~ - Device platform: x86 - Installing: 23.0 (23000) - Copying image to cache ! Process error ! Installation failed ~~~ In one of the steps, the instructions say you can use one of these three commands: ~~~ patch.bat patch.bat manager patch.bat canary ~~~ I ran through all the steps three times, each time using a different command above, none of them worked. Note, I am able to install the older Magisk v21.4, but nothing newer. I am using Android Studio with a Virtual Device: ~~~ API 27 Android 8.1 ~~~ I have seen other people show screenshots of this working, but they refuse to explain how they were able to do it. Does anyone know how to get this working? 1. https://github.com/LSPosed/LSPosed 2. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk 3. https://github.com/shakalaca/MagiskOnEmulator
