Ever since we last talked about it, developer of Xposed he has always worked silently, continuing to develop the system for himself Android Nougat. Now, thanks to its direct response, we have the latest updates that we can hope for. But time to time and see what's emerged today.
Ever since Nougat arrived on our devices, the most enthusiastic modding users would have had to habit with Xposed incompatibility. But rovo89, the official developer of the framework, responded to a user who asked him to start publishing his work, though not complete.
What will the Xposed developer answer?
rovo89 he did not waste time and readily responded with a ...
"I decide whether to publish my current job or not, and you should honor my decision".
Not so quiet tones, but perhaps justified by the excessive wait that the framework is taking with it. On the other hand who knows how many private messages will be arriving on the forum XDA friends!!
The reasons for the lack of publication by the developer are to be found in two central aspects, in addition to the difficulty of adapting any projects to the Nougat environment: first of all, it must be said that, since ever, rovo89 he worked alone and without aid, managing to get amazing results if we think of all the architecture behind Xposed. Secondly, then, Xposed requires special attention and working in a team involves further difficulties: work synchronization and language consistency across all.
In fact the reason is another. Other developers have never offered any co-operation with the original author of Xposed (no criticism, eh!), But this has caused a net gap between the direct knowledge of rovo89 and those of other developers with regard to the currently compatible framework up to Android Marshmallow.
Where are we with Xposed for Nougat?
Following the words of rovo89, the current state of development of Xposed for Nougat it is firm to the understanding of some source codes ART, as the developer has opened the door to those who have implementation ideas about it. This stalemate depends, as has been said before, that the Nougat app management system is completely different from the one seen and studied on MM, so in order to create a perfectly compatible framework system it is imperative to fully understand the operating mechanisms of the Nougat operating system.
I'm now at a point where I'm wrapping up some things, reviewing the big amount of changes I've done in the last few months and clustering them into individual commits to keep the overview. I think I got some really nice technique working to ensure that the apps can still be compiled with all the optimizations enabled.
rovo89
Then? What to expect? We certainly do not expect a short release of one framework of Xposed compatible with Android Nougat. Temples that would be proved by the words of rovo89 who speaks of further work needed.
Be patient.
