Installing Xposed
-Just flash xposed-v79-sdk21-arm64.zip
-Give it time to boot " it takes some time and itsn't a bootloop
-Install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk

If you want to Uninstall Xposed
-Flash xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm64.zip
- Then Uninstall Xposed Installer App

currently some xposed modules dont work as we need a premissive kernel

amirarsyad97 · Jan 17, 2016

I've followed every step you have instructed, and I came across this error after I connect the phone. I have pressed both volume button, yet the problem still persist. Any help?

Hi ... I get code error 5054 too on sp flash tool. Can you help ?

Mohamed Yaser · Jan 18, 2016

can you tel me which vriants give 5054 error?

ben07 · Jan 18, 2016

820s

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:20 PM ----------

I made some research the code error 5054 means: The files you're trying to flash do not belong to or are not compatible with the phone you're trying to flash them to**
Solution they give..:*** Ensure you're using the correct files. If you're sure they are, then try formatting before flashing again

Does this mean that my variant is not compatible with yours ?

amirarsyad97 · Jan 19, 2016

@Mohamed Yaser you might give the wrong file. Instead, I flashed the pgfs files from Gibz97 thread and it worked fine. Then I continue with flashing twrp through fastboot command.

ben07 · Jan 19, 2016

The problem persists for me.

1. Download pgfs from Gibz97 thread.
2. Put it in the folder containing the lollipop ROM. (backup original pgfs is optional)
3. Open flashtool, as in the OP, load scatter-loading in lollipop rom folder (not in folder RootIT)
4. Follow steps in OP, except do not tick recovery.
5. Proceed until step 7, then reboot into bootloader using adb (as the pic in OP)
6. Then boot into download mode. (It is weird as download mode is considered as fastboot in adb, not the bootloader

)
7. Flash twrp using command fastboot flash recovery twrp.img .
8. Boot into recovery, then flash SuperSU.

You're done! I hope it help you

No, you do not need to. Just unlocked pgfs1 and pgfs2. If you flash whole firmware, then it will wipe data.
