How to Install Systemless Xposed on MIUI using Magisk

Systemless Xposed has been available for a while and is gaining popularity for its easier implementation with systemless rooting methods like SuperSU and Magisk. However, for Xiaomi devices running on MIUI, installing Xposed framework is still a tricky feat.

Magisk developer topjohnwu released systemless Xposed for Magisk a while back and it’s by far the easiest way of getting Xposed framework running on your device without breaking Android Pay, Pokemon Go and other apps that use the SafetyNet api.

But as you know MIUI is different, you can’t directly flash the systemless Xposed framework for Magisk to your Xiaomi device. It needs to be modified to be compatible with MIUI, and that’s what user aviraxp is doing over at xda (with the help of user SolarWarez‘s work).

You can download aviraxp’s systemless Xposed for Magisk for MIUI devices from the download link below. Although at the time of this writing only ARM and ARM64 devices are supported, but X86 is also being worked on (as per aviraxp’s xda post) and will be supported soon.

Download Systemless Xposed for MIUI

• Android 5.0: xposed-miui-sdk21.zip
• Android 5.1: xposed-miui-sdk22.zip
• Android 6.0: xposed-miui-sdk23.zip

Also download the material designed Xposed installer apk from the download link below, as the official Xposed installer doesn’t work with systemless Xposed for Magisk.
