Same happened to me, I went all hype to root and installed Xposed on the Chuwi Hi8, turns out it really stuck in bootloop. (Even the Xposed app itself prompt me an warning before install) I used this method to get out from bootloop : http://wisdomgeek.com/android/how-to-disable-xposed-framework-on-boot/ 1- Power off the Hi8 by holding the the power button. 2- Power on the Hi8 by holding the power button, till I see the Chuwi / Android Logo. 3- Then I keep on pressing the power button (keep pressing, not holding), till I see the Android lockscreen, 4- Go to Xposed app, then under Framework , click uninstall the framework. 5- Now my Hi8 is back to normal again. Source says it only work on Xposed v2.5 or above, what a nice feature! I will try to install the Xposed again using the recommended method. Will report if success! Cheers!
Thank you so much! I’m totally adding this to the post because its so much easier than my method
