It is not recommended to use unofficial xposed on Nougat just yet.
You can flash Super Su v2.82 SR4 in recovery to get root.

Read the second Post(Below the ROM THREAD). I've updated F.A.Q.s , you will get your answers there.
And @NeoHBz, LTE and VoLTE(Voice over LTE) are different thinks. And LTE is already working perfectly.
I've read your FB comment claiming that you've fixed VoLTE, actully it wasn't VoLTE you fixed, it was LTE that you are claiming to be fixed. But LTE is already working!
Kindly research about what you are saying!

Downgrading back to stock mm

Do I have to simply restore the twrp backup of stock rom by your twrp v3.11 or by old twrp of mm?
Clear it plz.
Because once I Hard bricked samsung galaxy y phone while downgrading .

 

[Mr.Ak]

Read the second Post(Below the ROM THREAD). I've updated F.A.Q.s , you will get your answers there.

To be more specific in your FAQ,

A: You can't recieve or make calls via your 4G sim.

It should be "VoLTE dependent carrier" instead of just "4G sim" ,as you know there are also carriers that provides 4G service,but doesn't depends on VoLTE for calls and stuff at all(airtel,for example).

Yeah correct, thanks for the correction!

Both will work, if it won't work with new one, flash the previous twrp and restore.

N.B
You're on your own when you flash xposed,developer of this rom will not support you for any bugs(or even bootloops) you might encounter.As unofficial xposed is currently unstable,only god knows what works and what not.
