Vector-SR is a fork of Vector, a Zygisk module providing an ART hooking framework that maintains API consistency with the original Xposed. It is engineered on top of LSPlant to deliver a stable, native-level instrumentation environment.
This fork is maintained at byemaxx/Vector-SR. Its primary focus is improving soft-restart recovery under KernelSU jailbreak mode, including system_server reinjection reliability, stale daemon handling, and dex2oat wrapper robustness after repeated soft restarts.
The framework allows modules to modify system and application behavior in-memory. Because no APK files are modified, changes are non-destructive, easily reversible via reboot, and compatible across various ROMs and Android versions.
Vector-SR supports devices running Android 8.1 through Android 17 Beta, following the compatibility baseline of upstream Vector.
Tip
This framework requires a recent installation of Magisk or KernelSU with Zygisk enabled. The fork is mainly tested and maintained around KernelSU jailbreak mode soft-restart scenarios.
- Download the latest release as a system module.
- Install the module via your root manager (Magisk/KernelSU).
- Ensure a Zygisk environment (e.g., NeoZygisk).
- Reboot the device.
- Access management settings via the system notification.

Note
Debug builds are recommended for users encountering issues or performing troubleshooting. CI builds may be useful when testing soft-restart, reinjection, or dex2oat wrapper changes.
Caution
GitHub requires users to be logged in to download CI artifacts.
The link above is filtered to show only master branch builds.
Please note that builds from Pull Requests (PRs) are often unstable and potentially unsafe (depending on the authors); we recommend staying on the master branch for verified builds, unless you are asked to help debugging sessions.

Important
Bug reports are most useful when they include logs from the latest debug or CI build, especially for soft-restart, system_server reinjection, stale daemon, or dex2oat wrapper problems.

Vector-SR supports both legacy and modern hooking standards to ensure broad module compatibility.
Note
Vector-SR supports the libxposed API via two git submodules: the module API and the service API.
A successful GitHub Actions build of the master branch indicates that this fork builds successfully against the current submodule commits. Developers are suggested to check the exact commits used by this fork when debugging module compatibility.
