Update: Xposed Framework V90 Beta 3 and beta 2 now available for download with more stability and bug fixes. The beta 3 now adds compatibilityย with Samsung Experience 9.0 Oreo ROMS.ย Google recently released latest Android 8.1 Oreo for its stunning Pixel and Nexus series phones. Some of the other Android manufacturers also pushed theย newer Oreo firmware update like Samsung Galaxy S8, OnePlus 5/5T, Asus, Essential Phones, etc. Moreover, a lot of custom ROM developers forย Lineage OS 15.1, Resurrection remix, AOSP 8.1 Oreo port, Nitrogen OS are now deploying 8.1 Oreo builds for supported devices. This also includes the developer support for various frameworks like Xposed, Magisk, SuperSU, etc.

Xposed Framework has been updated to v90 for latest Android 8.0 Oreo and 8.1 Oreo. We have already seen the latest versions of Magisk 15.2 and SuperSU 2.82 SR5 getting the Oreo support. Today, the developer rovo89 deployed another update with Xposed v90 for Android 8.0 Oreo (SDK 26) and 8.1 Oreo (SDK 27). Both the firmware come with different SDK version and need a different file for each. This is a beta version. The stable version is coming and will be updated with the same links.

Xposed Framework and its modules bringย various tweaking, customization, and personalization options over the stock Android system. This includes Amplify, Gravity Box, Ad blocker, Ads remover for YouTube, Kernel tweaker, up clock, down clock, etc. There are several modules to choose from. You can also install Xposed as a Magisk module. This only applies if the module states it is compatible with Oreo. So download and install Xposed Framework for Android Oreo.

Before you jump into installing the Xposed v90 onto your Oreo device, remember that it is in beta state. Hence, there may be some bugs. However, users have reported it to be working just fine. Not all Android phones have been tested and may not work with every configuration. You will need to test your own device by yourself. Simply download the latest Xposed v90 for Oreo and head over to the installation instructions from below.

Whatโ€™s new with Xposed v90 Beta 3?

  • Another small update for Xpsoedย v90-beta3ย adds compatibility for Samsungโ€™s Oreo ROMs.
  • Also back-ported some changes from Android P to Oreo 8.0, which were previously only ported to Oreo 8.1.
  • This might fix some app crashes. .
  • Also, downloads are finally available via HTTPS.

Whatโ€™s new with Xposed v90 Beta 2?

Thereโ€™s aย newย Xposedย Installerย v3.15ย available in the first post now. It fixes two crashes and provides twoย newย features:

  • Fixed a crash in download list search on Oreo.
  • Fixed a crash when sending log on Oreo.
  • โ€œOptimizeย appsย nowโ€ menu item, will trigger โ€œcmd package bg-dexopt-jobโ€. Itโ€™s available since Oreo and will start the job that usually runs once per night if theย deviceย isย charging. If you feel degraded performance after installing Xposed, it might be because allย appsย are running purely on JIT and interpreter. Thatโ€™s because Xposed needs additional information to identify methods it has to invalidate, and that information will be determined during the next compilation. If you want that to happen now, use thisย newย feature. It took about 20 minutes on myย Pixel. For more background, see here.
  • Detection ifย Verified Bootย (dm-verity) is active. If yes, any changes to theย systemย partition will be detected and youโ€™ll end up in aย bootย loop. The detection might not be 100% perfect yet, so if you notice false positives or negatives, pleaseย report a bugย along with the output of โ€œadb shell getpropโ€.

Iโ€™m also publishingย v90-beta2ย andย uninstaller 20180117, available via Xposedย Installer. Remember that the firstย bootย will take several minutes.
