For xposed you must have heard or seen for his description, one of which is that want to xposed must first root can, then the fact is really so?
Xposed must need to brush into su. Zip to obtain root permission to brush into and effective?
Not necessarily
Xposed plug-in to be effective, do you need root?
Don’t have to
In the process of integrating the custom ROM, I found that the extracted flash-script.sh could run directly in recovery.
Brush into the Xposed can also put the zip package decompressed out, system into any folder, flash-script.sh into the same directory, execute flash-script.sh can brush into the operation.
According to flash-script.sh script content, it can be found that in fact, the operation of the xposed is just some replacement and links to the system file:
See here probably understand, in fact, Xposed’s brush into just replace the system folder under some content, so as long as there is a way to access the system folder.
In TWRP, you can enter the command whoami to find out why you can access the system:
The correct way to do this is to swipe xposed. Zip directly under recovery. Then boot restart, found that the mobile phone is not SU root permissions, but the Xposed is effective.
On the one hand, it is true that you need root permission to access the system, but recovery already has it, in fact, there is no extra brushing. On the other hand, if you use the Xposed installer to brush in or restart and so on, it is indeed necessary to su authorization.
So the final conclusion is: Xposed needs to swipe into su to get root. This description is inaccurate. Xposed can completely not root.
