In this guide, we will show you the steps to install the LSPosed Framework on your Android device. During the initial days of modding when rooting was carried out via SuperSU, when CyanogenMod reigned supreme in the custom ROM, and the Clock Work Mod recovery was the go-to choice, we had a few impressive modules that made it absolutely necessary to have a rooted device.
Some of the ones that I could recall include Titanium Backup, Substratum Themes, Xposed Framework, Viper4Android, and Greenify. Among them, the latter are the only ones who managed to survive these constant changes in the AOSP code base from Google. As far as the rest is concerned, the development of Xposed was temporarily halted for newer OS versions, however, that wasn’t for long as new developers picked up from the last left-off point.
As a result of which, we were blessed with the fork of Xposed known as LSPosed Framework. It houses all the USPs that the original Xposed had and has further improved in the UI/U domain. With that said, this guide will make you aware of the detailed instructions steps to install the LSPosed Framework on your Android device, but before that, let’s first have a look at what exactly is this framework. Follow along.
What is LSPosed Framework?
LSPosed Framework is a one stop place from wherein you can download tons of modules and tweaks all under one roof. It provides the direct GitHub links for each of these modules from wherein you. could download the corresponding ZIP easily. Moreover, most of these modules are in a normal APK format as opposed to ZIP.
So you just need to install the APK as you do so for any other app and then simply enable them from within LSPosed. Moreover, disabling and uninstalling each of these modules could be carried out right from within LSPosed itself. All in all, if you are looking to add additional functionalities to your device and bless it with a plethora of goodies, then this might be just the right option for you.
