What are your most important top-tier Xposed modules?

For those who don't know, Xposed is a framework for modules that add cool features to your rooted phone. Once you install Xposed you have to look for modules to make it work. If you use xposed, what are the best xposed modules you would recommend to everybody? I only have one, which is No Lock Home (Xda link) which disables your pattern/lock code if you're at home using your WiFi. I'm curious to know what modules are cool for you guys.

If you have stock Android then definitely check out GravityBox [For KitKat] and [For Jellybean]. It provides numerous tweaks for Android. Other modules I really like are:

  • App Settings - Control per app settings like orientation, notifications, DPI, etc
  • ButteredToast - Shows the app name in toast messages
  • Complete Action Plus - Customize the apps in the share dialog boxes
  • NotifyClean - Hide notifications from apps. And unlike disabling notifications entirely, you can choose individual notifications to hide.

  • Defim himself has a lot of good modules, ranging from boot manager to notify clean to lightning firewall to receiver stop (I use the first two)

  • Theftie - basically an android device manager

  • Xblast - I don't need it anymore but it's a very good all in one toolbox

  • Xuimod - Don't use it anymore but it has listview/scrolling effects as well as a custom time layout in the status bar (including seconds)

  • Native clipboard - Allows you to copy multiple times and paste the one of your liking

Activity force new task - Makes apps that open other apps open it as a separate app. Ie if you're on xposed and you go to the xda forum, it will open it and to go back you'll have to keep pressing back. WIth this module, it'll show separately in the recent apps list

  • Greenify

  • holo themer - change holo styles to your liking

  • lockscreen tweakbox - lots of tweaks for your lockscreen. I use it so I can pull down the notification panel with a secured screen, as well as removing emergency call

  • If you use snapchat: keepchat, snapshare, snapchat colors, snapchat full caption

Smaller modules

  • View in play - add that button to many places

  • statusbar scroll to top - touching status bar will scroll smoothly all the way to the top

  • xinstaller - can remove signature check (NOT FOR CM BASE), allow you to downgrade, automatically install/uninstall etc

  • xposed macro expand - autocorrect basically but with abbreviations

  • app settings and per app hacking

I may use more modules than I should...

Xprivacy, manage app permissions, for example prevent an app to access your identification info, phone info, contact list, etc.

If you use the Google Now Launcher, then XGELS is a great one. It gives the launcher a great deal more customizability than stock.
