Issue on Motorola Moto G5s (XT1792), stock firmware (Android 8.1)

[ShiroNoKarasu]

Using Xposed on this firmware causes bootloops. Build number is OPP28.65-37 (recently released official firmware) and it has the 1 August security patch.

I've tried both system and system-less (Magisk) zips, all yield the same result. Uninstalling does bring things back to normal though.

Here's /data/user_de/0/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/error.log.old (error.log was blank):

Does it have anything to do with the security patch?

Edit: I used Xposed version 90-beta3.

Did you ever find a solution? I'm having bootloops too with 90-beta3 Android 8.1, but on a Moto G4.

Looks a SeLinux problem that makes XPosed unable to access some files.Since XPosed is no longer updated you'd better try other systemless solution.

@eebssk1 how else to get XPrivacy installed?

@eebssk1 how else to get XPrivacy installed?

Well I remember that XPrivacy will crash system with original XPosed.Since i'm already using EdXposed i don't know how to solve that.
